Chapter 62... I really want to know.
Plans can't keep up with changes.
She met He Ziyan.
Everything has changed.
She admitted that she had some feelings for He Ziyan.
But that's a natural fondness for outstanding people.
How could I not like a 25-year-old young man who is ambitious, capable, and has a face like Yan Zihe?
But just like with Xu Jingyan, having feelings for someone doesn't mean you can maintain a stable relationship.
Her relationship with He Ziyan was based on mutual interests from the very beginning, so how could she possibly hope for a better future?
Fake is fake, no matter how dreamy it may seem.
Years of ups and downs in the entertainment industry have made Jiang Luo lose the courage to throw herself into the fire like a moth.
What she possesses is the rationality of prioritizing self-preservation after weighing the options.
"We're back!" Shi Yan shouted energetically as soon as she entered the door.
For her, today was a fulfilling and enjoyable holiday. She also had the opportunity to meet some important people she had never had the chance to meet before, and she gained a lot from the experience.
"I'm going back to my room to rest for a while," Jiang Luo said with difficulty, then returned to her room and lay down in a spread-eagle position.
I was too exhausted to think about anything anymore, so I just stared blankly at the ceiling.
-
Eight o'clock.
The part where you send a text message expressing your feelings.
Today's rule: Guests send text messages to their crushes, but the crushes won't receive them.
Holding her phone, Jiang Luo was lost in thought.
The daily "heart-fluttering" text message segment is like a review.
Let's see who's secretly falling for someone.
Let's examine who is moved by whom.
He bowed his head, lost in thought.
After a long period of sluggishness, my fingers awoke from their slumber and began to dance and type.
Today I saw a different side of you, shining brightly on stage, like a star in the night sky.
After sending the message, I tossed my phone aside and continued lying down.
She knew that He Ziyan would also send it to her.
This is their job, with only two days left to work.
What will he post today?
Is it related to the dinner party?
Or something else?
Ah... I never expected that.
Ah... I really want to know.

9:58.
"Knock knock knock".
A knock came at the door.
Jiang Luo sat up with a swift motion, like a carp leaping into the air.
It's time to announce the rankings!
She rubbed her eyes.
I lay there for a while and drifted off to sleep.
"Coming!" she replied quickly, rushing over.
The door opened, and there stood He Ziyan.
"No rush." His voice was full of calming strength.
He had the advantage of height, and his gaze swept down from above, but because of the curve of his eyebrows, it did not appear sharp; instead, it was more like a gentle, flowing stream.
Like being chased by a dog and suddenly crashing into a pile of cotton, forced to calm down, Jiang Luo hummed in agreement.
He Ziyan raised his hand, his fingertips reaching out.
Jiang Luo's pupils dilated instantly, and she was stunned.
Bang. Bang. Bang.
My heart is racing.
What is he going to do?
Realizing that his current behavior was too intimate, He Ziyan stopped, withdrew his hand, and smiled, "My hair flew away."
Feeling awkward, Jiang Luo brushed a strand of hair off her cheek and mumbled a disordered "hmm".
"Let's go." He Ziyan walked ahead, and Jiang Luo followed.
Upon reaching the sofa, He Ziyan deliberately stopped, leaving a seat next to Shi Yan for Jiang Luo to sit on.
Jiang Luo accepted his kindness.
He Ziyan sat down on her other side.
Holding Jiang Luo's arm, Shi Yan asked with a grin, "Are you asleep?"
Jiang Luo nodded: "I lay down for a while and fell asleep without realizing it."
He Ziyan chimed in, "Were you too tired from attending the press conference?"
"It's... alright," Jiang Luo said shyly.
She thought about too many things, which is why she was so tired.
Attending a press conference is just about eating, drinking, and listening to "lectures," while He Ziyan's speeches and social interactions are the real challenge.
But he was still so energetic.
Jiang Luo thought dejectedly: This makes me look too weak.
"Alright, now that all the teachers are here, let's announce the top three so far." A staff member stepped forward.
The top three were no surprise; they would definitely be three men. Jiang Luo waited for the announcement before going back to sleep.
"First place, Xi He!"
Applause erupted.
Um?
He Ziyan has fallen from first place?
Perhaps the incident of confronting the reporter still had an impact on him.
Jiang Luo glanced at him cautiously.
His face remained completely expressionless.
Sometimes, Jiang Luo would suspect that he was actually the kind of person who was heartless and carefree.
Noticing Jiang Luo's gaze, He Ziyan turned his head to look at her, casting an inquiring glance.
Jiang Luo quickly looked away and continued to look at the staff.
He Ziyan smiled.
Is Luo Luo... worried about me?
Not bad, dropping this ranking was worthwhile.
"Second place, He Ziyan!"
The applause rose again.
“Third place…” The staff member looked up and suddenly scanned everyone.
Because of this small action, Jiang Luoyin had a premonition that Qin Ning might not be in third place.
"Tao Le!"
The living room was quiet.
They were all extremely surprised.
Someone reacted first and led the applause, and then the others followed suit.
Having not seen Xi He and Tao Le all day, Jiang Luo had no idea what had happened. She could only suppress her surprise and try her best not to look at Tao Le.
Too many strange looks will inevitably bring her a lot of psychological pressure.
Fluctuations in popularity are normal.
People were simply surprised by the personnel changes and did not harbor any ill will towards Tao Le.
The staff member added, "Also, we need to clarify that the top three guests today do not have the privilege of forcing a date. Only the top three guests from yesterday have that privilege. And one of yesterday's three guests has already used the right to force a date. The remaining two guests need to pay attention to the time limit and quickly send a signal to their favorite female guest."
A guess popped into Jiang Luo's mind: Xi He had forced Tao Le into a date. It was because of Xi He that Tao Le's popularity had skyrocketed.
But when exactly did Tao Le and Xi He establish contact?
Jiang Luo tried hard to recall, but uh, she couldn't remember even the slightest clue.
Good heavens, she was so close to the gossip and didn't notice anything! What a failure!
"Alright, all teachers can go back and rest now."
The staff member's voice, like a teacher's "Dismissed" in a physical education class, signified the long-awaited freedom.
Jiang Luo stood up happily, but suddenly realized that there was a hint of awkwardness in the atmosphere.
It was too quiet behind me.
She looked over and saw that Qin Ning, who was usually in charge of livening up the atmosphere, had fallen silent and was sitting there with a blank expression.
Beside her, Tao Le looked full of remorse.
Jiang Luo stood there, unsure whether to advance or retreat.
"Let's go." He Ziyan stood up and strode past her.
Looking at the nimble figure in front of her, Jiang Luo thought to herself: He Ziyan definitely can't understand the emotions of us mortals.
"Let's go, let's go, everyone should go back and rest early. Those who need to go to work have to go to work tomorrow." Shi Yan said, exchanging a glance with Jiang Luo.
Jiang Luo pursed her lips, indicating that she didn't know what to do either.
Fortunately, everyone else got moving.
The party is finally over.
Qin Ning wilted like a frostbitten eggplant.
He's always been an outgoing guy, and the sadness he's showing now is the result of his efforts to hide it.
Jiang Luo was a little worried about him, but she couldn't comfort him.
Comforting Qin Ning would inevitably put Tao Le in a dilemma.
This is the complexity of interpersonal relationships; they are constantly constrained, which is why Jiang Luo dislikes socializing.
She slowed her pace, turning back every few steps, until she watched Qin Ning ascend the steps.
I turned around and almost bumped into the person in front of me.
