Cheers!
The sound of glasses clinking rang out.
Cheng Xin smiled and put down her cup, glancing across the table with a smile.
Take it back.
"It's my treat tonight, so don't try to take it from me!"
She knew he wouldn't go out to eat with her alone.
So she invited a lot of people, calling it a "dinner party".
As long as she could have more opportunities to spend time with him, Cheng Xin didn't care whether it was a one-on-one meeting or not.
Everyone in the private room was praising her beauty and elegance, but Cheng Xin just smiled and remained silent.
Later, during dinner, someone asked her what her relationship with Gu Xingchen was.
The woman who asked the question was envious, envious that Cheng Xin could be invited to the stage three times by Gu Xingchen as a guest.
Honestly, a lot of people in the industry have been texting her lately asking if she's really dating Gu Xingchen.
At times like this, Cheng Xin really wanted to reply: Yes, we are dating.
But she didn't dare to do that; Gu Xingchen had never promised her anything.
She could tell that he liked someone else.
After drinking, Cheng Xin glanced at Gu Xingchen again and explained on his behalf, "Xingchen is a very good person. He has helped me a lot, but there is nothing between us."
"We're just friends."
"Really?" Zhang Fen turned to look at Gu Xingchen. "Xingchen, so you don't have a girlfriend?"
Very good.
I thought he really came to City B because of Cheng Xin.
Zhang Fen's gaze was so intense that anyone present could see she was also interested in Gu Xingchen.
There's no way around it, he's just too outstanding.
No wonder so many people like him.
To break the awkward atmosphere, the host of the variety show chimed in, "Sister Fen, please don't ask. Xingchen is so busy every day, how could she have time to date?"
“Yes,” Su Yunmeng nodded, “Xingchen doesn’t have much time for dating.”
"No."
A single word interrupted their conversation.
The people who were speaking looked up at the same time and saw Gu Xingchen move his lips and say, "I have a girlfriend."
"..."
shock.
It's a complete smokescreen.
Everyone present was taken aback by Gu Xingchen's words.
Cheng Xin's smile completely vanished. "Xingchen, you have a girlfriend?"
A spoon was used to stir the hot soup in the bowl.
It was so fast that a few drops splashed onto the back of her hand.
Her skin was red, but Cheng Xin seemed to feel no pain.
When?
A slight smile, a forced smile.
Many people are watching him.
Gu Xingchen lowered her eyes and looked at the wine glass on the table.
At one point, he remembered someone.
It feels like a lifetime ago.
"It's been a long time."
how long?
He's forgotten all of that.
Is it someone inside or outside the industry?
Do we know each other?
"I'm sorry, I don't want to go public yet." When Gu Xingchen looked up, she met Su Yunmeng's surprised gaze.
She seemed to know, and paused for a moment.
After regaining his senses, he changed the subject for him.
"Let's eat. The food won't taste good if it gets cold."
All right.
Amidst the laughter and merriment, Cheng Xin heard the sound of her own heart breaking.
She smiled faintly, and the hand holding the spoon felt cold.
"Let's eat."

On the same day, Rong Chang checked into a hotel in City B.
When night fell and she got hungry, Rong Shang took a bath before going out to prepare dinner.
I walked around the city center and every restaurant was packed with customers.
Unable to find a place, she ended up eating spicy hot pot at a roadside stall.
Honestly, since she got together with that person, she's become increasingly casual about what she eats.
