Her voice was cold, faintly distant.

Xinran?

Gu Jingyuan, we broke up.

Gu Jingyuan choked on the air and coughed a few times before finding his voice to explain, Xinran, Yue Xiu and I have never been together, and I didnt promise her anything. She signed the papers to transfer the shares of the company herself.

Yeah, I guessed that, Liang Xinran said calmly. Cooperating with the act to get the bad guys in, right?

Yes, youre very smart. After Gu Jingyuan finished speaking, he realized that she had not relaxed her brows. He understood why. Im sorry. I didnt tell you in advance. I was afraid that you would worry and become their target. I wasnt in the country, so I was afraid that if something happened to you I wouldnt be able to protect you.

Everyone else can know, except me. Ive been scared all the time. Do you know what thats like? Do you know what its like to be in the dark and unable to empathize with you when youre having problems?

Im really sorry. Gu Jingyuan was very sorry, but in that situation, he really couldnt say anything to her.

Even Fu Xiuyuan and s.h.i.+ Jin only guessed the truth later.

He could not put Liang Xinran in danger.

Liang Xinrans voice was very calm. Gu Jingyuan, were a couple, and we might even become husband and wife in the future. However, when you encountered something, you didnt consider putting our relations.h.i.+p on an equal footing. This makes me unable to accept it. Im sorry, I cant forgive you now.

The car stopped and the driver came to knock on the door. Were here, Miss Liang.

The car door opened and Gu Jingyuan saw that it was his residence. His brows furrowed slightly.

Gu Jingyuan, Im glad youre back. Go back first, Liang Xinran said softly.

The driver was still holding the door. Gu Jingyuan hesitated for a moment and had no choice but to get out of the car first.

The car door closed. Gu Jingyuans line of sight was blocked by the car door, so he could not see Liang Xinran.

The car drove slowly away until it was out of sight.

Liang Xinran placed her hands on her eyes and closed them.

***

Liang Xinrans scenes would end in two days.

The next day, she came over to shoot with slightly dark eyes. The makeup artist frowned. Xinran, you still have to rest well at night. If the makeup isnt good, it might affect your filming.

Sorry about that. I slept a little late last night.

Ill give you a little more concealer.

The manager teased her at the side, Xinran, Doctor Gu has just returned. You guys are already like this. Fortunately, the filming is about to end. Otherwise, I really cant guarantee that the director wont punish you.

Alright, go get me a gla.s.s of water. Liang Xinran shoved the gla.s.s at her.

The manager still did not know about her and Gu Jingyuan, and Liang Xinran did not say anything.

She finished her makeup and hurried off to shoot.

During lunch, the manager brought food.

When she opened it, it was fragrant. It was the small restaurant she frequented. Only Gu Jingyuan knew that she loved going there.

Why are we eating this for lunch? Liang Xinran frowned.

You dont like it? Then Ill get you another one, the manager said. Whats wrong? I didnt see you being picky before. You usually eat the same food as the crew.

Did the production team order this? Liang Xinran asked.

Probably. From what I saw, everyone is eating the same thing.

Forget it, leave it. Ill eat this. Liang Xinran didnt want to be special.

The manager put down the food.

Liang Xinran picked up her chopsticks and took two bites. The taste was much better than usual. Perhaps the production team had considered that the filming was about to end, so the food was arranged much better.

She finished all the food in the lunch box.

When she went out to dispose of the lunch box, she heard someone say, Actually, Dr. Gu is quite a nice person. He even treated the entire production team to a meal! Not to mention that this meal is much better than what we usually eat. Im about to break down from eating our usual meals.

Thats all thanks to Liang Xinran. Without her, why would Doctor Gu treat us to food?

Thats for sure. Speaking of which, I really hope that Doctor Gu has nothing to do with the previous drugs. He looks so gentle and refined. He really doesnt look like someone who would do those things.

I hope so.

Liang Xinran stopped in her tracks and placed the lunch box in the designated area. She turned around and saw Gu Jingyuan sitting at the side.

Seeing her, Gu Jingyuan stood up and walked towards her.

Liang Xinran tidied her hair uncomfortably.

I came over to take a look, Gu Jingyuan said softly. Is the food to your liking?

Theres no need to treat so many people to food just to feed me. You have a lot to do, dont you? Go back to your work.

Gu Jingyuan pressed the tip of his tongue against his cheek. Im not that busy.

Well Im pretty busy. Im off.

Doctor Gu, are you here to visit your girlfriend? The staff member beside him greeted.

Dr. Gu is so considerate. You came to visit Xinran as soon as you came back.

Thats right, Im envious of Xinran.

Liang Xinran felt a little uncomfortable and turned to leave.

Gu Jingyuan was still standing there.

The crew were already familiar with him and greeted him.

When Liang Xinran heard everyone chatting with him, she pursed her lips and returned to the dressing room.

The manager ran in and asked curiously, Why arent you accompanying your Dr. Gu? You dont have many scenes today. Why are you here so early?

Ill take a nap.

Oh, I understand~ The managers face was suggestive. Instead of taking a nap, its better not to play so late at night.

Hey, whose side are you on? Liang Xinran asked unhappily.

Im definitely on your side. Dont you know how many times I defended you when I heard that Dr. Gu and Yue Xiu were together? But later on, didnt it prove that his relations.h.i.+p with Yue Xiu was fake? Then why would I still have a problem with him?

Liang Xinran covered her head with the script. Forget it, I wont talk to you anymore.

What happened? Did you have a fight? the manager asked, running over to sit beside her.

Liang Xinran thought for a moment and shook her head in denial. No, I want to rest for a while. You can go out first.

The manager couldnt figure out what was wrong with them, so she went out first.

After filming in the afternoon, Liang Xinran saw that Gu Jingyuan was still there. She went out the back door.

Gu Jingyuan was also present for the remaining filming.

When filming ended, everyone did not have a gathering again, but they bought a cake for Liang Xinran.

The director personally pulled Gu Jingyuan over. Doctor Gu, come, lets cut the cake together!
