"Lorne..."
Mu Siran called his name softly.
She had never seen him angry before, so she was unsure.
"Why did you return to Tiancheng tonight?" he asked.
What he cared about was not the fact that she returned to Tiancheng, but that she did not contact him after returning to Tiancheng, but instead asked Luo Jiuyu to pick her up at the airport.
Mu Siran lowered his head slightly, his fingers unconsciously clutching the corner of his clothes: "I have an advertisement here... I was afraid of delaying your work, and I left in a hurry, so I didn't have time to tell you."
She secretly looked up at Lorne, trying to catch a trace of emotion on his stern face.
Luo En snorted coldly and took a step forward. His tall figure instantly enveloped her, giving her a strong sense of oppression. "Are you afraid of delaying me? You asked Luo Jiuyu to pick you up, aren't you afraid of causing trouble for him?"
There was a hint of annoyance in his eyes, as well as a barely perceptible trace of grievance.
Mu Siran's heart trembled, and he quickly explained: "Xiao Jiu just happened to be free, and I didn't think too much about it. Luo En, please don't be angry, okay?"
Her hand gently pulled the corner of Lorne's clothes, as cautious as a frightened deer.
Luo En looked at her like this, and his anger subsided a little, but he still kept a stern face: "You guys made such a big noise tonight, have you thought about how to handle the public relations?"
Mu Siran said: "The trending search has been removed. Did you remove it?"
"No." Loen was obviously stunned. Who moved so quickly?
"It's not my studio either. It's probably Xiaojiu."
Since the trending search has been removed and the incident has been put on hold, he slowed down his tone and asked, "How long will you stay this time?"
Mu Siran stood up from the sofa and said softly, "Go back to film tomorrow night."
He hummed and raised his hand to rub her slightly red ears.
"Why is the back of your ear so red?"
"Maybe I was scared by you." There was a hint of complaint in her tone.
He was really angry tonight.
There was a photo of her being photographed at the airport. She was hiding in Luo Jiuyu's arms with a shy look on her face.
Anyone who saw that photo would think they were a couple.
"Ranran, you don't really like Luo Jiuyu?" He stared into her eyes with a hint of coldness.
He had taken the initiative for so many years and was used to staying by her side, but he always forgot that she had never taken the initiative to say that she loved him.
"Musran, have you ever had me in your heart all these years?" he asked in a hoarse voice.
Mu Siran has been avoiding answering this question. She is unwilling to open her heart to accept him, but she has never directly rejected him.
"Why are you asking these questions suddenly..." Her smile could not hide her awkwardness.
"When I saw the photos of you two together, I felt very sad. I suddenly realized that all my efforts over the years seemed like a joke. It seemed like you never really liked me."
From the photos taken by the paparazzi, Luo En found that Mu Si Ran was standing next to Luo Jiuyu with a sweet and shy smile on his face.
It's like a woman who falls in love for the first time and shows it in front of the person she likes.
She was never like this in front of him.
To him, she was polite and restrained, and although she sometimes showed closeness, there was also a sense of alienation.
Every time he hugged her, she would either do something to push him away, or let him hug her without responding or responding indifferently.
He used to think that she was not new to him because they were too familiar with each other and grew up together.
Or maybe it's because she has played too many emotional scenes, so she is a little slow in real life.
Now it seems that everything is just an excuse for her not loving him.
He is deceiving himself and paralyzing himself.
She smoothed out her hair and her emotions at the same time.
"Lorne, maybe we were never suitable for each other, but we are both used to each other's presence in each other's lives."
“…” He lowered his long eyelashes, feeling a dull pain in his heart.
"I'm sorry, Lorne," she said.
"If you don't love me, why didn't you say it earlier? Why wait until now?"
Being his backup? That hurts.
She whispered, "We grew up together. Even if there's no love, there's still family and friendship. I can't bear to hurt you."
Hearing this, the light in Luo En's eyes dimmed completely.
It turned out that these years, it was ultimately his one-man show. He was so immersed in the play that he thought she was also in it.
"Ridiculous." He raised a miserable smile and took two steps back away from her.
"It's my fault that I've been so sentimental and pestering you all these years." He raised his eyes and looked at her with complicated eyes.
She was deeply touched by his eyes, and a sense of guilt came over her.
Lorne left without looking back.
Her body seemed to have been drained of its soul as he left. She slumped onto the sofa, feeling powerless.
It's not like she has no feelings for Lorne at all.
At least they are good friends, not quite lovers.
She once imagined that if Luo Jiuyu remained in such a hopeless state, her final outcome would probably be to marry Luo En.
There are many male celebrities pursuing her in the circle, and there are also some capital tycoons outside the circle who express their love for her. She has weighed them all.
Those handsome male stars are not much more handsome than Loen, but their wealth is far less than his, and they all spend more money than him. How can they be as focused as Loen?
Not to mention those big capitalists. Not only are they all ugly, but their wealth is not as great as the Luo family. Some of them still have families, while others change women like clothes.
All in all, Luo En was the best candidate for marriage among those who liked her. Moreover, they knew each other well, so the risk of marriage was minimal.
