It was late at night when An Jingluo dragged his tired body and heart home, charged his mobile phone and planned to take a good bath, but as soon as he turned it on, he received a WeChat message from Xiang Yu drifting across the ocean with jet lag.

[The jet lag party sent a congratulatory message, wishing Brother Luo a smooth work, a thriving career, eat well, raise yourself fat, and I will sit and wait to hug my thighs when I return to China in the future. 】

An Jingluo laughed out loud at the emoji he sent about hugging his thighs, and replied to him briskly with his fingers: [I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Xiang Handsome guy, I can't eat fat. At the end, he replied with a sassy expression.

[Haven't rested so late? Xiang Yu replied quickly, and then sent another photo of him eating lunch.

[I came to eat at the restaurant we used to go to before, and ordered their latest signature dish, since you are not there, I can only reluctantly help you try it. 】

An Whale clicked on the big picture nostalgically, looked at the familiar dinner plate and environment, and his heart was overflowing.

In the three years abroad, although it was a last resort, there were really many gains. The tutors with strong professional ability she met in her studies not only helped her find the style she was good at, but also encouraged and comforted her everywhere, so that she liked her major more and more, and enjoyed her life more and more.

The bosses and colleagues I met at work, they were very friendly and warm, willing to teach her to do things, patiently listen to her feelings like friends, and solve her little knots like life coaches.

Not to mention Xiang Yu, who took her abroad under great pressure and stayed by her side all the time, so that the time when the sky almost fell in her heart had sunshine, laughter and dependence.

She knew that she would not be able to repay Xiang Yu's kindness in this life, and she was willing to repay him with everything she had, as long as he wanted it, as long as she had it, but except for herself.

An Jingluo had quarreled with himself more than once, why couldn't he give Xiang Yu a chance? He is so good to you, what else do you not be satisfied with?

Every time at this time, An Whale will hate herself, obviously she has left, why is her whole heart still occupied by Jiang Li? Why can't you put him down? Why can't you fulfill Xiangyu, complete Jiangli and fulfill yourself?

[Are you hungry? 】

[Why don't you speak?] 】

The constant sound of prompts pulled her thoughts back, and the corners of An Whale's mouth turned upward: [It looks super delicious, but unfortunately I can't eat it in China, I can only eat xiaolongbao, snail noodles, hot pot, and crayfish every day...... What a pity! At the end, I didn't forget to make a pouting emoji with him.

【... You actually reported the name of the dish? Xiang Yu was drooling by her.

An Whale, who achieved his goal, got serious: [How are you doing? Is Mia okay? 】

[All right, what about you? The question was thrown back.

An Jingluo had nothing to hide from Xiang Yu, and honestly explained his situation: [I saw Zuo Zuo, reconnected with Fei Fei Tiantian, and also saw Xia Feng and Su Yi......]

Xiang Yu looked at the long message she sent in the dialog box, and talked about the people around him and her work, but she didn't mention the person he wanted to know the most.

What about him? 】

[Who?] 】

[Don't play stupid, you know who I'm talking about? On the issue of Jiang Li, Xiang Yuhui showed unusual stubbornness, because he saw the heart-rending appearance of An Whale crying in the dead of night, and the girl who was so lively and cheerful was so sad and distressing.

An Jingluo sighed, his fingers tapped on the screen and stopped, deleted, deleted, and changed, and finally issued three words: [He hates me. 】

Sensing the depression in her tone, Xiang Yu was entangled again and again and said something that made him quite uneasy: [Yesterday, I heard a domestic friend accidentally mention that Ke Yi would go to Beijing to work, she didn't know that you were coming back, there might be overlap in your work circle, you have to be more careful, I'm afraid that she will be bad for you. 】

Ke Yi, An Whale saw this name, and his eyes hurt as if he had been pinpointed.

[Okay, I know, Beijing is so big, it may not be so coincidental to meet, and now I already know her true face, I will not be turned around by her, if I really meet, no one will suffer, rest assured. 】

Although he comforted Xiang Yu by pretending to be nothing, An Whale's heart still couldn't calm down for a long time.

Ke Yi, her former best classmate, friend, and best friend. The two of them have been snuggling together and encouraging each other to survive countless nights when they were almost tortured crazy by functions, parabolas, and various elements since they first met in high school.

In the summer of her sophomore year of high school, An Jingluo participated in the art training, because she wanted to be admitted to the same school as Jiang Li, and the cultural class was delayed a lot, so Ke Yi gave her make-up classes when she had time, improving her weak subjects little by little, and finally both were admitted to the ideal university.

Keyi's university is in this city, and An Jingluo's university is in Beijing, after applying for volunteers, she said more than once that she regretted it, and wanted to go to the same university as An Jingluo, and it was okay if she couldn't go to the same city.

At that time, An Whale fell into tears of emotion, and later realized that those were all her own self-inflicted feelings. The reason why he said that he wanted to go to the same school as An Whale was because Xiang Yu also applied for An Whale Fall's school; The reason why I help myself with tutoring is because Xiang Yu is present to listen to every tutoring.

Yes, Ke Yi has always liked Xiang Yu.

In fact, in hindsight, she is not without flaws. She has always been cheerful and generous, but every time she sees Xiang Yu, she will be shy and blush; Originally, the two of them said that they would go shopping, but she always inadvertently mentioned asking An Jingluo to ask Xiang Yu if he was going.

She also jokingly wanted to match them at the time, creating many opportunities for them to be alone, but the two didn't seem to have any intention of doing this, coupled with the heavy study, An Jingluo slowly faded her mind, who knew that this became the fuse for the split between the two in the future.

In the four years of college, although the two often kept in touch, An Jingluo was always baffled by her hot and cold way of speaking. I'm happy and can't wait to stick to her 24 hours a day, ask her all kinds of things about Xiang Yu, if An Whale Fall replies slowly occasionally or doesn't see it in class, she becomes extremely cold when she replies again, and she always has a weird connotation of An Whale Fall's ingratitude.

Occasionally, she came all the way to Beijing to find An Whale, and she always kept her words from Xiang Yu, and An Whale asked her if she liked Xiang Yu? At that time, her expression seemed to be smiling, and An Whale fell with a chill when she thought about it now.

Didn't you always know? Ke Yi asked her.

An Jingluo never knew, she always thought that she asked Xiang Yu out of concern for her classmates, after all, the three of them were also the iron triangle of high school. Later, the school celebration sang to Yu to confess to her, although she rejected him, she was always full of guilt for Ke Yi in her heart.

Ke Yi is very smart, he pinched through An Jingluo's heart, and used this guilt to let An Jingluo find a job as an assistant for her through Jiang Li's relationship.

An Whale has suffered a lot of losses in this regard, and the contradiction with Jiang Li has gradually arisen. Because she was never suspected, and there was no relevant evidence, An Jingluo always thought that it was her own problem, and fell into anxiety and self-doubt.

Later, a series of irreparable things happened, and she had no choice but to leave. missed the three years of Zuo Zuo's growth, the three years of accompanying her parents, and the three years of her and Jiang Li.

It wasn't until the water in the bathtub was cold that An Jingluo slowly got up, no matter how cold the water was, it couldn't withstand the coldness of her heart when she knew that Ke Yi had been playing tricks behind her.

Ke Yi, don't regret coming here!

Hurriedly rinsed his body with hot water, and when he wiped it with a bath towel, he felt some stinging pain in his chest, and when he looked down, he was embarrassed, this guy actually used to bite.

As if she had thought of something, she quickly wiped the mirror covered with a layer of white mist, and sure enough, the entire collarbone and side neck all showed a deep and light red, and some of them had turned purple.

While observing back and forth and thinking about how to cover up these traces at work tomorrow, she complained about Jiang Li's rudeness, is this what people do? Finally, looking at the bruises on her wrists, she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, Jiang Li didn't kiss her, at least her face could still go out to meet people.

Thinking of the days when she was with Jiang Li before, she was his girlfriend and his assistant, the two got along day and night, inseparable, and the two played just below the collarbone, and there could be no trace in the place where the clothes could not cover. The two of them knew this by themselves, and they were also reminded by the agents around them every day.

Even that time the two had a big conflict, there was a big misunderstanding, Jiang Li tortured her like a little beast, she was forced to bite him on the collarbone fiercely, the next day left a bruise, there was a bruise that was particularly heavy, the foundation and concealer could not be covered, and finally chose a round-neck T-shirt, which was strictly covered before being allowed to go to the airport.

got off the plane and went straight to the recording site, somehow, that bruise was actually photographed, and then caused an uproar on Weibo, and fans wondered if their idols were in love.

The company decided to deal with the rumors, did not make any remarks, and privately hired a navy to wash them into mosquito bites, and also posted photos that seemed to be more high-definition and convincing.

The fan group originally had a lot of girlfriend fans, and when I saw someone overturning the proposition of idol love, of course, I raised my hands and feet in agreement, so it immediately became a mosquito recovery conference.

Mother fans said that they were happy in the air, and their son could fall in love when he was older. What they hope most is that Jiang Li meets a girl he likes at a good age and enjoys the pure love between ordinary couples.

A very small number of poisonous people stubbornly think that idols are in love, they turn on the pervasive monitoring mode, and even pick up the same costumes of Jiang Li and other actresses before, no matter how big or small, even the timeline has been screenshotted.

Fortunately, these poisonous Wei usually spread rumors, and no one believed them this time, but the company felt the crisis, trained Jiang Li and An Jingluo respectively, and ordered Jiang Li to break up.

Jiang Li was firm in his position, no matter what he said, he didn't agree, and the company's senior management took turns to persuade him, but he still didn't agree. They wanted to fight An Whale's idea and let An Whale propose to break up, but before he could take action, he was persuaded by Jiang Li to quit, he only said one sentence: If you force her to break up, I will quit the entertainment industry immediately!

These were not known to An Whale at the time, but it was told to her by the agent who participated in the whole process later, and at that time, in addition to being full of emotion, there was only love flowing in her heart that was about to overflow.

How can she be worthy of such a perfect Jiang Li, with his unique love and protection. It is not enough to say that she is lucky, it should be said that she is lucky in three lives, so when Jiang Li faced a huge predicament, she resolutely chose to protect him, even if she sacrificed herself.
