Chapter 60 (1)



Chapter 60 (1)

The first second Gu Chi came to his senses, he took Wei Xun's hand without hesitation and ran to the couples area.

Wei Xun was forced to trot after him, and emphasized with an uneasy breath: "Cancan, Qi Sen, and Pei Shen are over there."

Gu Chi didn't have time to explain. He ran a few more steps and saw that Qi Sen and Pei Shen had not caught up with him, so he slowly stopped.

Wei Xun's hair was a little messy, and the mask she was wearing made it even more difficult for her to breathe, as she was already a little breathless.

Gu Chi frowned, lowered the brim of her white hat to block her view to the sides, and pulled her white mask slightly down, revealing her tall, white nose. She smiled with satisfaction, and then explained calmly: "You saw the look in Qi Sen's eyes just now. If I meet up with them now, he will definitely question me. I will be questioned no matter what, so I might as well have a good day."

Wei Xun laughed, "But Cancan is there."

"It's okay. Cancan's two brothers are more reliable than me." As he said that, he took her hand and walked forward.

Wei Xun raised her lips slightly because of his amusement.

He is quite self-aware.

Thinking about it carefully, what Gu Chi said makes some sense.

Since I have to face the questions I'm being questioned about, it seems a bit unfair to admit my mistakes now.

If you are going to be wrong, then be wrong to the end.

Wei Xun's gaze shifted downward, resting on their clasped hands. His fingers moved inadvertently, their white fingertips brushing against the back of Gu Chi's hand. Gu Chi paused, belatedly realizing what he had done. The tips of his ears glowed a crimson brighter than the morning glow. He lowered his head, cautiously peering through the gap between their arms and their clothes, then withdrew his hand uncomfortably.

"I was just running too fast and didn't think too much." He explained haltingly.

When he was about to pull his hand back, a pair of cold white fingers pressed on the back of his hand.

Wei Xun lowered her head, and her curly eyelashes trembled.

"Just hold it like this."

Gu Chi's breathing stagnated, and he came to his senses after a while, lowered his head and curled his lips silently.

"Yeah. Holding it."

Gu Chi suddenly thought of something and put on a hat he had bought on the street. He then pushed down the brim of Wei Xun's hat and said with a smile, "This way no one will see you."

"I'm afraid it's difficult for you to explain." Gu Chi added softly.

Wei Xun looked up at him with a smile, and didn't say anything for a long time.

The early spring breeze blows by, the faint fragrance of flowers and the warm sunshine blow across your face, making your heart warm.

Gu Chi and Wei Xun were quietly immersed in the brief happiness and warmth.

**

On the other side, Sheng Jing and Wan Yao were not as lucky as them.

When Qi Sen and Pei Shen walked towards Sheng Jing holding Cancan's hands, Wan Yao lowered her head, not daring to look at Pei Shen's teasing gaze.

Cancan said innocently, "Second brother and third brother said that big brother is very busy today. Why is big brother in the playground?"

Sheng Jing felt a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly: "I'm done."

"Then let's play together~ Sister Yaoxian is here too. Cancan wants to ride the carousel with Sister Yaoxian!" Cancan said loudly in a baby voice.

Qi Sen glanced at them both calmly, then bent down to Cancan's side, his expression softening slightly. "Cancan, your second brother will accompany you to ride the carousel. Yaoxian Sister and your eldest brother want to go to the movies. There will be scary monsters in that movie, so children are not allowed to watch it."

Cancan held Qi Sen's hand tightly and said, "Second brother and third brother will accompany Cancan to ride the wooden horse many times."

Qi Sen quickly agreed and took Cancan's hand and walked towards the children's playground.

Behind him, Sheng Jing, who was wearing a hat, sunglasses and a mask, moved. After a while, he turned his head and said to Wan Yao, "Let's go. The movie is about to start."

Wan Yao pointed in the direction Cancan left and whispered, "It's okay for me to go and see it myself."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Qi Sen was helping them out, but Qi Sen's casual departure made Wan Yao feel even more embarrassed.

It seems like...she is competing with Cancan for her brother.

Sheng Jing stood there, looking at the direction where Cancan left in silence for a long time.

It was he who suggested going to the movies.

It was only at a class reunion some time ago that he found out that Wan Yao was in the same high school as him.

Wan Yao is in Class 1 and he is in Class 3.

When high school classmates mentioned Wan Yao at the party, they all praised her with envy and a hint of amusement.

Praise and envy Sheng Jingdong.

Wan Yao was taken by her teacher to a research institute for academic research just after she entered university. Her brave act of saving someone a few months ago also earned her praise from the school and party media.

It has only been half a year since Wan Yao graduated from high school, but she has already fallen behind her former high school classmates. She can’t imagine how big the gap will be in a few years.

Sheng Jing was well aware of Wan Yao's excellence, but her funny tone made him a little confused.

During the gathering, a classmate mentioned a few words, saying that although Wan Yao was a social phobia member, he had a strong sense of chivalry in helping others when he saw injustice.

Once, a homeless man was bullied by a group of hooligans outside the school. Although Wan Yao was afraid, she trembled and stood in front of the homeless man with a brick in her hand. She spoke the most vicious words in the most frightened tone. She not only mentioned the teachers and principal of the other school, but also talked about the police and the law. She wrote a short essay of more than 800 words in front of the hooligans, and she was very experienced in talking about military affairs.

But the thugs were not afraid of these things at all. When they were about to kick her twice, a group of school security guards rushed over and stopped the group of people. Only then did the thugs realize that Wan Yao was stammering and saying those words not to scare them, but just to kill time and wait for the security guards to come.

In addition to this heroic deed, Wan Yao's deskmate also happily shared another story.

"Don't be fooled by Wan Yao's frail appearance, devoted to studying ancient medical texts. She has a hobby most people wouldn't expect. She loves to read action-packed comics. One time, when she was borrowing a comic from the library, she discovered someone had revealed the identity of the final boss in the book. She was so furious that her face flushed red, and her hands were shaking as she gripped the book. Her reaction nearly killed me with laughter. I never imagined she had that side of her."

"She later wrote an 800-word essay called, I think, 'The Three Disadvantages of Randomly Spoiling Comic Books.' She placed the essay inside the page containing the spoilers. To prevent those reading later from being spoiled, she copied a page of the comic book and placed it over the original."

Sheng Jing recalled these two sentences in his ears, and there was a little more smile in his eyes when he looked at Wan Yao.

Wan Yao invisibly protected the only happiness he had during his school days.

"It's okay. Cancan is with Qi Sen and Pei Shen, so I'm redundant. The movie is about to start, let's go."

Wan Yao clenched the bill in her hand, pursed her lips and nodded.

The sound of the wind in her ears seemed to become quieter, and all she could hear was Sheng Jing's voice.

The sweet sound, as clear as a spring, creates ripples in people's hearts.

She loves listening to it and has loved it for three years.

**

The year Wan Yao fell in love with Sheng Jing, he had not yet made his debut.

The cicadas' chirping in summer is so deafening that it hurts your ears.

Wan Yao walked out of the office with a pile of homework. In the distance, Sheng Jing was standing at the corridor. The bright sunlight fell on him, casting a tall shadow.

Next to him, the Minister of Culture and Arts was pulling his sleeve and begging him to sing a song at the school's annual celebration.

Wan Yao held the textbook tightly in her arms and walked quietly with her head down.

As we passed each other, a light voice rang in my ears.

"Okay, I understand."

The sound is very pleasant, just like the rustling sound of clear stream water flowing down the river and hitting the stones at the bottom of the river.

Wan Yao was a little stunned when she heard it, and she didn't notice the person rushing towards her in the corridor while walking.

My shoulder hurt from the collision, and the homework books in my hand fell like snowflakes.

But it hurts a bit when it hits your head, just like a big hailstone.

Wan Yao covered her forehead and rubbed it gently.

The person who bumped into her said "sorry" perfunctorily and ran forward again with a laugh.

Wan Yao didn't say anything. She bent down and picked up the homework scattered on the ground one by one, carefully brushing off the dust on the textbooks.

"Is that how you apologize?"

The clear voice that I heard just now sounded again, but this time, there was a hint of anger in the voice.

She looked up in surprise.

Sheng Jing rushed to the man, grabbed his hand and said sternly, "You bumped into someone and just apologized? Can't you see that the textbook has fallen to the ground?"

The man laughed sarcastically: "Since you are so kind, please help her."

Sheng Jing's expression became increasingly gloomy, and the director of the Art Department hurried forward to mediate. Wan Yao couldn't hear what he said, but she only knew that Sheng Jing glanced over here, his tone still serious.

"She doesn't care that I care. It's a question of right and wrong."

Wan Yao's hands were stiff for a long time as she picked up the book. When she came to her senses, someone had already squatted down to help her pick it up.

It’s Sheng Jing.

His bony hands quickly picked up every book on the ground and placed them in front of her. Before leaving, Sheng Jing said, whether intentionally or unintentionally, "Be tougher next time."

Wan Yao picked up the book in her arms and lowered her head in silence.

Even she herself didn't know why she had the courage to step forward and help others when they needed help, but when it came to herself, she didn't even dare to utter a word of rebuttal.

Sheng Jing asked her to be tougher, but Wan Yao hadn't learned that in the past ten years.

But she learned one thing in high school:

How to like someone.

But during the three years of high school, she was too timid to say a word to Sheng Jing. She would only silently look at his ranking in the monthly exams on the bulletin board and listen quietly to her deskmate talking about everything about him.

Wan Yao carefully hid her love in her heart, thinking that the two of them would never meet again. Unexpectedly, Pei Shen, Gu Chi and Cancan came to her.

There were bursts of crying and noisy sounds in my ears.

Wan Yao came back to her senses.

In the playground, under the warm sunshine of early spring, a little girl in the distance cried and tugged at her father's clothes to buy her candy. Her father picked her up with a serious face and scolded her, "Don't cry. Is crying any use?"

Wan Yao's eyes turned red when she thought of her father.

My heart felt like it was being pricked by a few thin silver needles, and it was filled with intense pain.

It's useless.

When no one likes you, crying is the most useless thing in the world.

Wan Yao withdrew her gaze and forced a smile.

"I'm fine."

The smile was fragile and helpless. Wan Yao seemed to be trapped in a net by herself, willing to be a desperate and cowardly prisoner.

Sheng Jing pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and looked at her seriously, and said softly: "Tell me if you have anything to say."

"I'll help you."

The helplessness in Wan Yao's eyes faded a little, and her slightly red eyes were filled with tears.

She looked up at Sheng Jing, then looked down at her hands, and whispered after a while, "Thank you."

Thank you for bringing light to my life during the dark days without my parents.

Sheng Jing gently pulled up her sleeve and whispered, "I should thank you too."

Wan Yao looked at him in confusion.

There are endless doubts hidden in her watery eyes, like a confused little rabbit.

Sheng Jing chuckled and said without explaining, "Thank you for watching a movie with me."

Wan Yao shook her head repeatedly, her tone becoming a little stubborn: "I want to thank you for watching the movie too."

The two of them thanked each other endlessly. Sheng Jing said helplessly, "Okay, we thank each other. We can't thank each other anymore. If we keep thanking each other, we won't even enter the theater after the movie ends."

Wan Yao lowered her head and said "oh" sweetly.

**

At this moment, Cancan, Qi Sen and Pei Shen had just arrived in front of the carousel. The long line of people made Pei Shen sigh.

"Why are there people everywhere?"

Qi Sen glanced casually and said, "Captain of the team, only dozens of people can enter at a time. Be patient and wait a few more minutes."

In early spring, the sun is warm on your body, but it will feel dazzling and stuffy after a long time.

Qi Sen asked Cancan to drink some water, then looked at Pei Shen and said calmly, "Take out your book."

"What do you want the book for?" Pei Shen asked as he picked up his schoolbag with one hand and unzipped it to take out the book.

"Hold it above Cancan's head to block out some of the sunlight."

Pei Shen paused for two seconds, imagining the exhausted scene, then without hesitation, he put on his backpack and said seriously, "I didn't bring any books."

Cancan raised his head and said in a baby voice, "Third brother is lying! No matter where he goes, there are books in his schoolbag. Grandpa and grandma know it."

Cancan shook Qi Sen's clothes with her little hand, adding fuel to the fire and reporting: "Second brother, third brother is lying to you~"

Pei Shen couldn't help but tap her little head with his index finger, "Look at what you can do."

Cancan snorted, "A liar is a puppy. Cancan doesn't talk to puppies."

After saying that, she continued to raise her noble little head, with a fierce look as if she was ignoring her third brother.

Ten minutes later, the carousel arrived.

Cancan immediately became happy, pulling one of his brothers in one hand and running forward, saying as he ran: "Brother, Cancan wants a white horse! Brother, you can ride the big horse, and Cancan can ride the small horse!"

Pei Shen trotted behind him, chuckling, "Cancan, weren't you angry with Third Brother just now?"

Cancan tilted her head, thought seriously for a few seconds and said, "Then let's make peace~"

"Okay, I'll make peace with you reluctantly." Pei Shen said with a smile.

The more I look at Cancan, the more I like her.

She is really his little cotton-padded jacket. Although she is a little spoiled most of the time, when the critical moment comes, she will still think of him when there is something delicious or fun.

After riding the carousel, Qi Sen and Pei Shen accompanied Cancan to play other activities.

There was a constant stream of people coming and going, and the waiting time for some projects was over an hour.

While waiting in line, Qi Sen and Pei Shen heard the names of Sheng Jing and Wei Xun from time to time. They looked at each other, silently put on the masks and hats that they disliked, and subconsciously sandwiched Cancan in the middle, worried that others would recognize her.

There were too many people outside, and Cancan was a young cub who even walked slowly and had to be led. If a group of people rushed over, she might be squeezed.

Pei Shen asked Qi Sen to hold Cancan, took out her little knitted hat and put it on her, and then put an ugly sticker on her cheek before stopping with satisfaction.

Qi Sen and Pei Shen took turns holding Cancan. After a while, Qi Sen suddenly said, "There are so many people here. What if Sheng Jing and Wei Xun are recognized?"

Pei Shen frowned and whispered, "If their relationship is exposed, I'm afraid it will cause another bloody storm. Why don't you remind them in the group?"

"They should know their stuff. They are all celebrities, so they must be careful when going out."

Pei Shen shook his head: "People who are in love have their IQ reduced by half. If you can date Gu Chi, tell me how much IQ you have left."

Qi Sen: ...

No matter what the reason was, Qi Sen took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the WeChat group that did not include Gu Jueyan and Bai Manshu.

[There are a lot of people here today, please be careful not to be recognized @顾池@蔚寻@盛璟]

Unfortunately, no matter how much we warned or how careful we were, we couldn't escape the sharp eyes of the reporters.

The next day, the news that Wei Xun and Gu Chi were in love bombarded the entertainment industry.

Nine vivid gifs from the paparazzi recreate the sweet love between Gu Chi and Wei Xun.

I thought that Wei Xun’s fans would scold Gu Chi and say angrily that “Gu Chi is not worthy of our Wei Xun”, but I never expected that the comment section of Wei Xun and Gu Chi was filled with cheers.

[A congratulatory message was sent from Zhonghao Mingzhucheng Community in Shangyao District, Guhai City, wishing everyone the best of luck in seeing Cancan’s father and mother reunited in peace.]

[Remember to give your matchmaker Cancan a big red envelope. Thanks to her, you are where you are today! !]

[Holding hands is so sweet, and Gu Chi's smile when he put the hat on Wei Xun was so beautiful! ]

[Gu Chi: My wife is so beautiful]

The paparazzi team is starting to doubt their lives.

I originally thought that the news that the son of the richest man was in love with a young star in the entertainment industry would make people think that "the young star is hooking up with the big boss and starting her invincible journey in the entertainment industry", but unexpectedly, few people on the Internet thought in this way.

The number of congratulatory messages sent is more than the red envelopes received at home during the Chinese New Year.

The team members thought about it and announced the big news that they had originally planned to release on Monday in advance.

Half an hour later, the news of #ShengJingLove# paralyzed Weibo for half an hour.

During this half hour, the photos could not be seen on Weibo, and countless people could only go to WeChat groups, classmates groups, and other social platforms to look for photos.

From several screenshots pieced together, Sheng Jing entered the cinema with a weak girl who kept her head down. After the movie, they had a meal together. They were neither too close nor too far away from each other. To be honest, they looked quite intimate. When Sheng Jing looked at the girl's smile, he did look quite intimate.

But it’s okay to say that they are not intimate.

The two of them had never even held hands, let alone any other physical contact.

The Sheng Jing team contacted Sheng Jing immediately and prepared to issue an urgent public relations clarification.

Sheng Jing sat in the lounge, looking at the messages that kept coming in on WeChat, staring blankly at the rock sugar and snow pear soup that was cooked in front of him.

When having dinner yesterday, Wan Yao reminded the waiter not to put chopped green onions in the food. At that time, he asked why the waiter knew his eating habits.

The last time we went out for dinner, I carefully picked out all the chopped green onions for him.

Wan Yao lowered her head, her fingers clasped together nervously, her lips trembling. After a long moment, she said in a weak voice, "I found out while watching a variety show."

Sheng Jing understood from that sentence and her evasive eyes that Wan Yao liked him.

At that moment, a joy welled up in his heart that even he couldn't ignore.

In that moment of joy, Sheng Jing knew that he also liked Wan Yao.

After knowing that she was the girl who wrote short essays in comic books to criticize others righteously, Gu Chi became curious about Wan Yao.

He liked the sparkle in Wan Yao's eyes when she talked about Chinese medicine, and liked watching her explain Chinese medicine pathology to the actors and correct the problems they had in their diagnosis through observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation.

Wan Yao was very good to him, so good that at a certain point he couldn't ignore her and wanted to take a look at her world.

This is Sheng Jing's first love, and he feels uneasy but also has countless expectations.

He finished drinking the rock sugar and snow pear soup, opened the door of the lounge, and in front of the surprised gazes of everyone in the theater, dragged Wan Yao, who was taking the actors' pulses, into the lounge.

"We went to the movies and were photographed by reporters. They posted a long article saying that we were in a relationship."

"Talk..." Wan Yao blushed and didn't dare to mention the last two words. Her fingertips trembled and she squeezed out a few words after a long while.

"No. You..your team will have a hard time. I'm..sorry."

Sheng Jing helped her sit down on the sofa. "If you want to say sorry, I'll be the one. Someone will find you soon and turn your life upside down."

Wan Yao shook her head silently.

Sheng Jing looked at her steadily and suddenly asked, "We are not in a relationship, so now..."

"Do you want to talk?"

Wan Yao raised her eyes, pointed at Sheng Jing helplessly, and then pointed at herself.

"Be...in love? Us?" she said unclearly.

Sheng Jing pursed his lips and scratched his head in bewilderment. "Maybe this is too hasty for you. But I thought, if I like you and you like me, there seems to be no need to be afraid of anything."

"I'm just worried that you're too scared. You're an outsider, and being with me is bound to attract a lot of attention..."

"I'm not afraid." Wan Yao suddenly interrupted him, her hands clenched into fists nervously. Although there was endless shyness in her eyes, her tone was very firm.

Wan Yao pursed her lips and smiled softly, clutching the plush ball on her coat tightly, and repeated softly: "I'm not afraid."

As long as she can be with him, she is not afraid of anything.

Sheng Jing looked at her for a long while, and a gentle smile gradually filled his eyes.

Sheng Jing held the fair and soft hand with his bony hand and said softly, "I'm not afraid either."

**

Ten minutes later, Weibo was finally repaired.

Sheng Jing posted a Weibo as soon as the repair was completed.

[@Sheng Jing: We are not together in the photo.]

[??? Is the reason Weibo is down just because it's an unripe melon? I'm confused.]

[Ahhh, my idol is still not in love, I’m fine again]

[Well, whether you are in a relationship or not, I will always support you~]

【Come on, Sheng Jing! 】

Before this Weibo post had received over 10,000 comments, Sheng Jing posted another one.

[@Sheng Jing: We are together now.]

The entire network: ???

ah?

Within a few minutes, Weibo was paralyzed again.

The whole network is numb.

My mood goes up and down like a disco.

When other couples were photographed by reporters, they denied it immediately and said they were actually together; but top star Sheng Jing was completely different. He seriously clarified it immediately and posted on Weibo the next second saying that they are now together.

The reporter inexplicably acted as a matchmaker for them. This way of announcing their relationship is quite interesting.

**

The day after Sheng Jing and Wan Yao were together, Cancan was happier than anyone else when she heard the news.

Qi Sen and Pei Shen thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out why she was so happy.

On this Sunday, Wan Yao came to Gu's house to play at the invitation of Cancan and Pei Shen, and Sheng Jing also came.

Gu Chi sat on the sofa and read the chat history with Wei Xun eight times before lazily crossing his legs and asked Sheng Jing, who was sitting next to him, "Are you single too?"

Sheng Jing nodded lightly, his eyes falling on Wan Yao who was talking to Cancan.

Cancan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, pulled Wanyao's coat and motioned her to squat down.

After Wan Yao squatted down, Cancan chuckled and whispered in her ear, "Sister Medicine Fairy, can you prevent Cancan from going blind?"

Wan Yao was stunned. Protecting the eyes is not a difficult thing. Besides, how could the eyes go blind for no reason?

"Of course the bright eyes won't go blind."

Cancan covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She glanced at her father and elder brother sitting on the sofa and whispered in a baby voice, "Can you prevent Cancan's teeth from being eaten by worms?"

Wan Yao understood.

Cancan, this is a way to protect your teeth.

"Of course."

Cancan jumped happily on the spot, and after landing, he quickly ran to Gu Chi and said in a very arrogant voice: "Daddy, Cancan wants to watch TV and eat candy!"

Sheng Jing frowned: "Aren't you afraid of losing your eyesight or getting your teeth bitten by insects?"

Cancan shook her head proudly, "Sister Yaoxian knows magic. She can save Cancan's eyes from going blind! She can also protect Cancan's teeth!"

"Cancan can finally watch cartoons and eat candy~!"

Wan Yao was stunned.

What's the logic behind this?

Gu Chi acted like he was used to it and said to Wan Yao calmly, "Don't pay attention to her. This kid will do anything to get candy."

After saying this, she said to Cancan earnestly, "Your Medicine Fairy Sister can't cure you after your teeth are damaged and your eyes are blind. She can only find a way to slow down the speed at which your eyes go blind. So, if you keep watching TV, you will become nearsighted, and your eyes will be damaged. Do you understand?"

Cancan listened in a daze, vaguely knowing that his plan had failed. He sat on the ground scratching his head in grievance.

Just when Wan Yao was about to ask Sister Yaoxian for help, her cell phone rang.

She took out her cell phone and looked at the screen. Her face suddenly turned pale and she hurried to the small garden to answer the call.

"What's wrong with her?" Gu Chi asked.

Sheng Jing shook his head, his eyes fixed on Wan Yao.

**

In the small garden, Wan Yao closed her eyes tightly, her lips were bitten white. After hearing what the other party said, she squatted on the ground and took a long breath, her nose feeling sore.

"You still want to gamble?"

"I won't give you a penny. You've been gambling your whole life and spent so many years in jail. Can't you just stop?"

Wan Yao's head felt like it exploded. After hearing her father's voice, countless lonely and fragile memories came flooding back like a wave.

"I heard that you still treat patients? And you don't charge for it? Are you a silly kid?" The voice on the other end of the phone was vicissitudes and sharp.

"You are my child, you must respect me, send me money quickly!"

Before Wan Yao could refuse, the other party hung up the phone.

Wan Yao lowered her head and covered her eyes.

After Wan Shu was released from prison a few months ago, he looked for her countless times.

When she was invited to the Gu family's dinner, he also came to see her.

He rummaged through the house for money, keeping her awake all night.

Every time he asked for money to gamble, he would scold her every time.

Wan Yao thought about changing her cell phone, but the Gu family used this number to contact her, so she didn't dare to change it. She was reluctant to disappear and cut off contact with the Gu family.

She suddenly understood why when she met someone who needed help, she would try her best to help regardless of anything else and donated all her scholarships to the children in the mountains.

It's not that she is kind, it's that she wants to make up for a life.

Her father accidentally injured an old woman during a robbery more than ten years ago. The old woman died on the spot and her father was sent to prison.

From then on, she lived as a dependent in her uncle's house.

Whenever she thought of that life, Wan Yao felt very sad. She felt sad that because of her father, an innocent life in this world had died.

She worked hard to practice medicine and save lives, and tried to use her insignificant strength to help others. When she was bullied, she habitually did not fight back, and silently endured the accusations as if she was punishing herself.

With a family like this, she seemed to have no hope of seeing the light.

**

Sheng Jing looked at Wan Yao worriedly, who had been keeping her head down and silent since answering the phone. After thinking for a moment, he took her away from the Gu family.

On the way, his mother Zhen Yi called him.

We chatted briefly, and when he mentioned the online news, he laughed twice. "Why didn't you tell me you were in love?"

Sheng Jing was concerned about Wan Yao and didn't say much to Zhen Yi.

"Take me to see him next time." Zhen Yi said.

Sheng Jing hummed.

"Wait for you to return home."

Zhen Yi went abroad to relax after the Spring Festival and has not returned since. This time she did not let her husband go with her and chose to go out for a walk alone. Sheng Jing and Sheng Chao vaguely understood that Zhen Yi was still depressed because the murderer who accidentally killed her mother had been released from prison.

The law has punished the criminal, but for the traumatized family, there will never be reconciliation with the murderer.

The murderer named Wan Shu.

**

For the next period of time, during breaks on the set, Sheng Jing would occasionally hold Wan Yao's hand and walk to his lounge.

Wan Yao had obviously lost a lot of weight during this period. Sheng Jing and Qi Sen learned to make soup several times. At first, they gave it to a group of "guinea pigs" from the Gu family. After Gu Chi and others felt that there was no problem, they hurriedly made it and brought it to Wan Yao.

Wan Yao's mood became better and better as she sipped the bowls of hot soup. Before, she was so timid that she didn't even dare to talk to him on the set. Now, sometimes she would put the pastries she made in Sheng Jing's lounge.

The two people get along peacefully and comfortably.

On the day Zhen Yi returned to China, with Wan Yao's consent, Sheng Jing took Wan Yao to meet Zhen Yi.

Zhen Yi had seen the girl's photos on the Internet and heard Bai Manshu praise her, so she was naturally very satisfied with Wan Yao.

But this satisfaction disappeared instantly when he learned about the girl's family the next day.

**

Whenever Cancan, who was sitting at home, heard Sister Taotao telling the magical love story between her elder brother and Sister Yaoxian, she would happily run to Taotao with a small stool.

"Will Sister Yaoxian be Big Brother's wife?" Cancan asked in a baby voice.

Taotao laughed twice, "Why do you keep mentioning my wife lately?"

Cancan raised his head and said innocently, "Because Cancan will find a wife in the future."

Taotao laughed out loud with joy.

"Cancan, you're a girl, so you're looking for a husband. But you can also find a wife, it depends on who you like in the future." Taotao said in a serious tone: "But not every girl has to fall in love like your father, mother, big brother, and sister Yaoxian. If you don't meet someone you like, you don't have to get married for the rest of your life."

A girl’s life does not exist just for marriage. Every girl should have her own happiness and pursuit.

Although Cancan is young, Taotao wants to slowly instill these ideas in her. She doesn't want to wait until Cancan grows up and be brainwashed by articles on the Internet such as "People in their thirties who have not been in a relationship have more or less some problems" and "The consequences of being a leftover woman", and naively think that getting married and having children are necessary.

Tao Tao thought about it and said with a smile: "Cancan, husband and wife represent a person who will always be by your side, just like when Cancan plays games, there is someone who will always follow you. If you don't like him, do you not want to play games with him?"

Cancan nodded her head heavily, "Cancan just wants to play hide-and-seek with her brother."

"Yes. So we have to be cautious about this matter. Got it?"

Cancan nodded in confusion.

Taotao was satisfied.

Just as he was about to take Cancan out for dinner, Gu Chi, who had been upstairs, suddenly came downstairs with a stiff expression: "Qi Sen just called and said that Sheng Jing broke up."

Tao Tao was stunned and asked in disbelief: "What?"

In the evening, Qi Sen, Pei Shen, Gu Chi, and Tao Tao looked cautiously at Sheng Jing, who was sitting in the middle of the sofa with an expressionless face, and gathered together, muttering to each other.

"Why did you break up?" Taotao asked in a low voice.

Qi Sen frowned: "Wan Yao's father was a gambler. Several years ago, he accidentally killed someone during a robbery. That person was Sheng Jing's grandmother."

Taotao was confused.

"Sheng Jing's mother's mother?"

"Um."

Pei Shen curled his lips: "That's all the things of the previous generation, why bring up this generation?"

Gu Chi rolled his eyes: "You make it sound so easy."

Taotao bit her lip. "Who broke up with me? Sheng Jing?"

Qi Sen glanced at her and said in a deep voice:

"It's Wan Yao."

"Wan Yao would break up?" Gu Chi said in surprise: "Didn't Taotao say last time that Wan Yao has liked Sheng Jing for three years?"

Tao Tao nodded repeatedly, "This is what I asked Wan Yao after they got together. It's definitely not fake news."

Tao Tao was trying to flip through the chat history as she spoke. As she scrolled through it, her hands slowed down, a trace of heartache flashed across her eyes. After a long moment, she put down her phone and said wistfully, "It was because she loved me so much that Wan Yao said she wanted to break up."

There are some decisions that you just can't bear to let others make, so you have to make them yourself.

Sheng Jing was depressed for a whole half month. After being scolded by Gu Chi, Qi Sen and Pei Shen, he suddenly became normal, ate three meals a day on time, and no longer refused to eat.

He filmed and lived his life like a normal person, as if the character Wan Yao had never appeared in his life.

But several people in the Gu family always felt that something was wrong with Sheng Jing.

A month later, Gu Chi couldn't help but move closer to him and whispered, "Why don't you just be a little more decadent? You look scary like this."

It's better to cry loudly than to keep it in your heart.

Sheng Jing glanced at him and said nothing.

No one knew that he started waiting from the day Wan Yao left him.

Wait for her to escape from the constraints of her original family and the guilt in her heart; wait for her mother to let go of the past, wait for him to let go of this matter himself, and wait for the day when he meets Wan Yao again.

But he waited for a long time and still didn't see it.

Wan Yao gave up her job at the research institute, suspended her studies and went to various small cities to diagnose and treat people.

Taotao talked to her once, and Wanyao said nothing but one sentence:

"Life has so many regrets, it's impossible to be perfect everywhere."

For the next period of time, Cancan spent his time alternately between kindergarten and the film set.

Gu Chi and Wei Xun are in a very good relationship. Although they quarrel from time to time, most of the time Gu Chi knows to admit his mistakes.

Sheng Jing filmed two dramas in a row and was immersed in work every day. When he had time to rest, he would sleep at Gu's house and listen to them talk.

He didn't dare to be alone, and even less dared to think about the past. He just waited, endlessly waiting in the long years.

With only two days left before Pei Shen and Qi Sen's college entrance examination, a legendary figure came to their home - Yuan Ling Ming Jun as Cancan called him.

Cancan grabbed Yuanling's sleeve and said fiercely, "You lied to Cancan!"

Yuan Ling was stunned.

He quickly bowed his head and saluted, folding his hands respectfully and said, "How dare this little immortal deceive His Highness?"

Cancan snorted, "You said Cancan is three hundred years old and can be the ancestor here. But no one regards Cancan as the ancestor!"

Yuan Ling's brain short-circuited for two seconds, and it took him a while to remember the words he had said before to persuade Cancan to come down to the mortal world.

Humans have always valued respect for seniority. If you were to return to the human world, everyone would call you "ancestor."

Yuan Ling's body trembled, and when his eyes fell on the big figures of the dragon clan in front of him, he smiled awkwardly.

"Emperor and Empress, High Gods, First Prince, Third Prince, you may not know this, but before Cancan descended to the mortal world, she heard the Emperor's jingle: 'People of the Dragon Clan don't endure hardship, but are most afraid of fatigue, and only fools vie for the position of transcending tribulation.' She has since refused to come down. This little fairy had no choice but to tell a tiny lie to get the little princess to descend."

The people in front of me still didn't speak.

After a while, Pei Shen finally spoke in amazement: "I finally saw a living immortal."

Gu Chi nodded repeatedly.

Yuan Ling: ???

So...these people who had expressionless faces just now weren't angry?

Yuan Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said politely, "Third Prince, thank you for the compliment. Shall we discuss this tribulation?"

Qi Sen said calmly: "
