☆, Chapter 20: Touching the scene with sadness since ancient times

"If you're unhappy, don't come back. Go back to our home." Fu Chenyan stroked the girl's hair, his eyes filled with tenderness and doting.

"good"

"Take a rest, I'll call you when we get home."

Li Muli closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. The discarded music manuscript, Li Muqing who dreamed of becoming a star, and Wu Zhuyi who had ulterior motives—they would all eventually reveal their true colors.

Let's wait and see.

Now, what she wants most is to find out the truth about everything, about her family background, and about her death.

Perhaps... her death in her previous life was caused by Tan Yueli and Wu Zhuyi. When the truth comes to light, no one will be able to escape unscathed.

I was exhausted. The reality I had been escaping from for so long was slowly being revealed, and I drifted off to sleep lost in thought.

Her chaotic dreams intertwined randomly, past lives and present lives, tangled together like a mess of hemp, enveloping her.

"Fu Chenyan, why won't you even come to see me?"

"Is she that important?" the person muttered repeatedly in their sleep.

"Baby, wake up," Fu Chenyan heard the girl's murmurs in her sleep and gently patted her back.

Li Muli woke up with a start, saw the person in front of her, and rushed over to hug his neck: "Fu Chenyan, you're finally here."

"I'm here, baby," the man continued to pat the girl's back, gently comforting her.

Li Muli's expression gradually cleared, and she realized that she was not the same person she was in her dream, nor was the man in front of her the same man she was in her dream.

The chaotic mess in her dream left her momentarily stunned.

In her dreams, she could never wait for him to be so gentle.

In her dream, she waited for him for so long. But in the end, she was disappointed.

She didn't see him the last time they met.

She finally admitted that he didn't love her.

The sight of a familiar scene can evoke painful memories, a phenomenon that has existed since ancient times.

Lately, she has been frequently thinking about her past life, and most of the time she feels unhappy.

She finally had to admit that sometimes she blamed him, and whenever she felt sorry for her past self, she still blamed him.

She couldn't be so open-minded.

She thought: She's such a sensitive and awkward person. She's the one who moves forward, and she's also the one who retreats. She's the one who wants to have a good relationship with him, and she's also the one who blames him.

She loved him, yet she couldn't help but blame him.

She felt trapped, confined, tormented by any further steps, yet unwilling to retreat.

Fu Chenyan panicked when he saw the girl's conflicted and pained eyes. She was right in front of him, but he couldn't hold onto her.

He heard her talking in her sleep and saw the girl's joy when she opened her eyes and saw him, but her indifference when she came to her senses.

It was as if the person she was expecting wasn't him.

But she was clearly calling his name.

He was quite certain that she wouldn't tell him her secret.

Fu Chenyan pulled the girl into his arms and gently comforted her, "It was just a nightmare, baby."

Li Muli leaned against him and nodded gently.

It looks like a fragile doll, covered in wounds.

"Take me to the film set. I took half a day off this morning," Li Muli said after a long pause.

Fu Chenyan nodded: "Okay."

Li Muli closed her eyes; she desperately needed to shift her focus and not let herself get stuck in this predicament.

She didn't want their relationship to be affected by their past life.

This is unfair to them in this life.

"Sweetie, if I do something wrong, you have to tell me. You can't ignore me," Fu Chenyan said, feeling wronged.

Li Muli smiled, a slight upturn at the corners of her lips. "Okay, I won't ignore you."

Seeing the girl finally smile, Fu Chenyan felt a little relieved; his girl responded better to gentleness than force.

This kind-hearted girl wouldn't bear to see others sad even if she herself was wronged. He cherishes her dearest child and hopes she will always be happy.

——

"I've arrived. Be careful on your way back," Li Muli said, waving to the man as she got out of the car.

The man nodded, but did not leave, watching the girl's figure walk further and further away.

Suddenly, the girl rushed back, her beautiful eyes sparkling, a charming smile playing on her lips: "Fu Chenyan, lower your head."

She tiptoed and kissed the man's lips through the window: "Farewell kiss, work hard~"

I couldn't bear to see such a spirited man sitting there so pitifully, like a puppy abandoned by its owner.

After saying that, she ran off again. Fu Chenyan chuckled softly. Girls are such fickle creatures, but how could his darling be so incredibly cute?

"Mu Li, you've arrived," Zhuang Lin said, standing up as he saw the visitor.

She had already received advance notice that Li Muli would arrive at noon.

Li Muli nodded: "Sister Zhuang, what are the plans after this drama is over?"

"I've currently accepted one magazine shoot and one advertisement. Once the series is completed, I expect to receive even better scripts."

"good"

"By the way, a dating reality show invited you. After you officially announced it online, you gained a lot of fans. Many people want to see handsome men and beautiful women fall in love. What do you think?"

"Reject it; Fu Chenyan won't agree."

"That's true, Mr. Fu is the kind of man who can't even get a call from the news media."

"Hmm, how is Tang Tang?" Li Muli asked casually.

"Ugh, don't even mention it. The internet is flooded with dirt on them, one wave after another, the evidence is irrefutable."

"Wow, the video of one woman and five men last night has gone viral online. She seems innocent on the surface, but she's a womanizer behind the scenes."

"Her endorsement contracts were all terminated; everyone's kicking her while she's down. Her assistant also came out and revealed a bunch of juicy gossip—it's truly eye-opening."

"The boss is indeed a big shot, tsk tsk tsk, woman, your golden thighs are dazzling my eyes."

When women get gossipy, it sometimes doesn't discriminate based on age.

Li Muli smiled slightly, her mood instantly improving.

She doesn't consider herself a saint; she's vengeful and believes that only a thousandfold or ten thousandfold retaliation is fair.

Suddenly I thought, if Tan Yueli comes back soon, the dust will settle down once the big battle is over.

If it really was her, turning herself into a murderer for a man, how pitiful and tragic.

And yet, they are truly hateful.

A stomach growl broke the silence, and Zhuang Lin glanced at the culprit: "Isn't President Fu feeding you?"

Li Muli looked at her pitifully: "Sister Zhuang, I'm hungry, I need some food."

Zhuang Lin rolled her eyes and said speechlessly, "Please, you're Boss Fu's girlfriend."

"Fanfan"

"I ordered takeout, but eat less. If you get fat, I'll never forgive you."

"Thank you, kind and beautiful Sister Zhuang," Li Muli said sweetly.

Zhuang Lin waved his hand dismissively: "Go away, get out of here."

"But Mr. Fu always wants me to be closer to him."

Zhuang Lin: Are you being polite?

Other agents: Dating is fine, just don't get photographed.

She said: It's okay to be photographed, someone will handle it, and I still have to eat a few bites of dog food every now and then.

"Are you living together?"

Li Muli: ? She asked, "How did her agent uncover the truth from the smallest clues?"

Li Muli scratched the back of her head and nodded.

"Even if it's President Fu, you still need to take precautions for me. I don't want the kid I raised to disappear prematurely."

"Received~"
