When Mu Chuwei sent her back to her doorstep, the night sky was already filled with stars, shining like diamonds, making the night romantic and warm.
The early winter evening breeze blew quietly over the two of them, but no one felt a trace of coldness.
Under the street light.
They stood face to face, the light stretched their shadows long and reflected on the ground beside them. Their shadows seemed to be about to intertwine, inseparable.
Mu Chuwei's face, which was originally full of joy and happiness, now showed a hint of melancholy. He gently held her hand and said softly, "I am really happy today. I feel like I have never been so happy in my life. But why do I have to leave you so soon..."
The tenderness and lingering in his eyes surrounded her like feathers. Lin Lanzhi did not hide her emotions at all. Her dark pupils were like the most transparent black gemstones, and a bright smile bloomed on her lips involuntarily.
"We'll see you tomorrow."
"But what should I do tonight?" Mu Chuwei pouted, looking aggrieved, "I will miss you so much that I won't be able to sleep..."
Lin Lanzhi smiled gently and said, "Then why don't we sit by the window and watch the moon together?"
Mu Chuwei couldn't help but praise: "This is a good idea."
"It's settled then!"
"Wait a minute!" Mu Chuwei said hurriedly.
As Lin Lanzhi looked puzzled, a small box appeared in his hand as if by magic.
Lin Lanzhi was slightly stunned.
With a "bang", the box popped open and a heart-shaped diamond ring suddenly appeared in her eyes. At that moment, her world was almost instantly illuminated by this small diamond ring. She stared at it for a full minute before looking at him in surprise.
The smile on Mu Chuwei's face was like a flower blooming at night, and the light in his eyes was brighter than diamonds. He stared at her and said, "Please accept this ring from me, okay?"
Lin Lanzhi looked at him, then looked at the ring in his hand, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes.
Mu Chuwei continued, "This is also the only thing my mother left behind. I want to give it to you for safekeeping. Just think of it as a token of our love. I hope we can be together forever."
I hope we can be together forever.
What a beautiful sentence! Just when Lin Lanzhi was immersed in it, she suddenly recalled what Ye Zilang said: It is impossible for you and him to be together.
Her face immediately turned pale, and she became even more hesitant when she looked at the ring in his hand.
Mu Chuwei had given her all his passion and love, but what he got was such a wooden response from her. Naturally, he was a little unhappy. Before she could react, he leaned over and kissed her lips with punishment.
Lin Lanzhi was as helpless as a frightened rabbit. She opened her eyes wide, and her pupils were filled with astonishment.
As if sensing her panic, he slowly changed from being overbearing to being gentle. Mu Chuwei tightly embraced her waist with one arm, pulling her as close to him as possible, and gently supported the back of her head with the other arm, making the kissing posture of the two more natural and comfortable.
An unknown heat flowed from her lips to her whole body. Lin Lanzhi felt her breathing become disordered. The complex emotions were like the light of a firefly, hazy and flickering.
Mu Chuwei was a smart guide. Under his guidance, she soon followed him wholeheartedly like an ignorant child, fully devoted and devoted, like a flower on a cliff, blooming quietly...
The two of them fit in so well, like the sweet fragrance of a flower and a dancing butterfly, like a dewdrop on a lotus and a dragonfly...
The quiet moonlight isolated them in another world, so peaceful and beautiful that no one dared to disturb them.
After the kiss, Lin Lanzhi's face flushed, her chest rose and fell slightly, she gasped for breath, and her appearance was extremely pitiful.
Mu Chuwei held her in his arms again, one arm around her tightly, the other hand pinching her chin and gently lifting it up, with a domineering smile on his lips.
"If you continue to be so indifferent to me in the future, I will use this method to 'punish' you!"
After Lin Lanzhi adjusted her breath, she glared at him coquettishly and said, "How dare you!"
Mu Chuwei's eyes instantly became evil and enchanting, and he said slowly: "Do you think I dare?"
He leaned over and moved closer to her lips again. Lin Lanzhi was afraid of another long kiss like the one just now, so she immediately stretched out her hands to block his face and said hastily: "Okay, okay, I promise you, I promise you!"
Mu Chuwei stopped moving closer to her, and the corners of his lips raised again in satisfaction and pride. At that moment, it seemed as if all the stars in the sky were reflected on his face.
The next day.
Lin Lanzhi got up early and rushed to school in a joyful mood. Thinking that she could see Mu Chuwei again at school today, her heart was as sweet as honey.
She walked forward happily, stroking the ring on her ring finger intentionally or unintentionally.
A crystal clear dewdrop reflected the morning light, slid leisurely along the veins of the leaves, bent the petiole and fell lightly, drawing a crystal stream of light in the air, and gently fell on her face.
She looked up, and the tiny rays of light leaking through the leaves kept flickering in front of her eyes . She couldn't help but wonder, what would Mu Chuwei be doing at this time? Would he also be thinking about her in such a beautiful morning light?
The more she thought about it, the happier she felt, and she quickened her pace and rushed towards the school.
But her good mood only lasted until the school gate.
Before she walked into the school gate, a group of reporters had already blocked the door. Someone spotted her first and screamed, "Look! It's the heroine in the photo!"
After that scream, the group of reporters immediately swarmed towards her with recorders and cameras in hand.
Lin Lanzhi had never seen such a scene. Looking at the large number of people rushing towards her, she was completely stunned, her mind went blank, and her feet seemed to have taken root, making her completely forget how to move.
"Miss, may I ask your name? When did you first meet Mu Chuwei?"
"Excuse me, what is your relationship with Mu Chuwei? Are you in a relationship?"
"May I ask when did you start..."
…
The reporters asked her a barrage of questions. Looking at the mouths that kept opening and closing, she had no idea who to look at first. Her mind was in a mess, and a boundless fear surged from the bottom of her heart .
She stood there at a loss, her face gradually turning pale, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into and hide from this group of people.
Unable to get an answer from her, the reporters became very anxious and expectant, and approached her step by step.
She shook her head unconsciously, murmuring, "Stop talking, I don't know what you are talking about, I can't hear you, I can't hear you..."
But no matter how scared and confused she was, the reporters kept asking her questions.
Just when she felt helpless, a young man in a white shirt suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked the reporters for her.
She didn't know what he said to the reporters. Then, she felt her hand being tightly grasped by him, and then she felt him pulling her and running quickly.
After leaving the sight of the reporters, he stopped running on a hidden path, turned around to look at her, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
Lin Lanzhi then realized that the person who saved her was Ye Zilang. She was stunned for a moment, then nodded and whispered, "I'm fine..."
Looking at her slightly pale face, Ye Zilang sighed: "Do you know what happened now?"
Lin Lanzhi recalled the scene where she was questioned by reporters just now. After thinking for a moment, she finally shook her head.
Ye Zilang frowned even more tightly. He raised his hand, handed her a newspaper, and said, " You will understand after reading this newspaper."
Lin Lanzhi took the newspaper with a bewildered expression on her face. When she saw the kissing photo in the newspaper, her face turned even paler, and her usually clear eyes were instantly filled with panic.
This kissing photo was taken yesterday when Mu Chuwei confessed his love to her and she couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss him on the face. It was captured at the right time and it was obvious that someone was following them.
The hand holding the newspaper began to tremble. She looked up at Ye Zilang across from her and subconsciously asked, "What should we do now?"
"You probably also know that I'm Chu Wei's agent, right?"
Lin Lanzhi nodded and whispered, "I know."
Ye Zilang's face gradually showed a professional expression. He said indifferently: "As Chu Wei's agent, I have to be responsible for his career, so this matter must be handled properly."
Lin Lanzhi stared at him blankly and asked, "What's next?"
"This is quite a big problem. We need to go back to the company to discuss the rest. Is it convenient for you to go to the company with me now?" He paused and added, "Chu Wei is here too."
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Lanzhi tried to ignore the confusion in her heart and nodded to agree to his request.
Mu Chuwei's performing arts company is located on the top floor of a luxurious building in the city center.
Lin Lanzhi followed Ye Zilang into his office and found that the space inside was larger than all the rooms in her house combined. The fitness equipment took up one-third of the space, and there were also bookcases, CD cabinets, bonsai plants, etc. It looked quite warm.
At this time, Mu Chuwei was sitting on Ye Zilang's swivel office chair, tilting his head slightly, closing his eyes, as if thinking about something. Hearing footsteps, he did not open his eyes and said, "The media can say whatever they want about this matter. I will not come out to clarify. What's wrong with Zhi'er and I being in a legitimate relationship?"
Ye Zilang did not reply to him, but just pursed his lips slightly, with a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, and then he glanced at Lin Lanzhi beside him with complicated eyes.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, but what surged in her heart was not shyness, but a heavy feeling that could not be described in words.
Ye Zilang walked to the ordinary chair opposite Mu Chuwei and sat down. He picked up the information on the table and flipped through it while saying, "I will explain this matter to the public. Lan Zhi is just a fan. She has always admired the big star Mu Chuwei. After an unexpected encounter, she took advantage of her idol's unpreparedness and kissed him secretly. This is how it happened. "
After he finished speaking, he looked up at Lin Lanzhi opposite him and asked, "Lanzhi, what do you think of this?"
After hearing what Ye Zilang said, Mu Chuwei suddenly opened his eyes and immediately looked towards Lin Lanzhi.
He didn't know whether he should be happy or worried about her unexpected appearance. But after thinking carefully about what Ye Zilang had just said, he couldn't help but frown , staring at Ye Zilang coldly, and said in an unquestionable tone: "I don't agree with this statement! I will never slander Zhier like this, she and I are truly in love!"
Ye Zilang looked at him and said calmly, "Unless you don't want to stay in this circle. You clearly know why you want to become a star. Now that you haven't achieved your goal yet, are you going to give up? The most important thing is that I will never allow you to be so impulsive. We have signed a contract!"
Mu Chuwei's whole body stiffened, and the veins on the back of his clenched fist began to bulge.
Lin Lanzhi was also stunned by Ye Zilang's last words.
Is it that serious?
If her relationship with him were exposed, would it cause such a big obstacle to his career?
Also, what is his purpose in becoming a star?
She stood there blankly, a series of exclamation points and question marks spinning in her mind.
Mu Chuwei looked at her worriedly, then glared at Ye Zilang coldly, with a pair of amber eyes full of complicated emotions. But Ye Zilang just stared back at him indifferently, with no change in expression on his face.
Finally, Mu Chuwei snorted, turned around, took Lin Lanzhi's hand and walked towards the office door, rushing out of the office building in one breath.
Along the way, he pursed his lips and didn't speak, like a bomb about to explode, full of anger and indignation. Lin Lanzhi wanted to talk to him several times, but swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.
What should she say?
Should she persuade him to continue his relationship with her, or tell the public that their relationship was just a misunderstanding?
It seems that no matter what, her heart will be very painful...
After being dragged by him for a while, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Where are you taking me?"
Mu Chuwei then stopped, took a deep breath, and turned to look at her. The moment his eyes met hers, the anger on his face gradually faded, and he looked at her with an indescribable tenderness and pity.
He stretched out his hands and gently held her shoulders, and said softly: "Don't go to school today. You won't be able to concentrate . You might as well go home and rest for a day. I will take care of everything."
"How are you going to deal with this?" Lin Lanzhi asked subconsciously, with a hint of worry in her clear eyes.
A gloomy look flashed across Mu Chuwei's eyes. He lowered his eyelids and whispered, "I'll think of a way..."
How could Lin Lanzhi not see the worry in his eyes? Her chest tightened slightly, and she tried to ignore her sadness and said calmly: "You should listen to Ye Zilang on some things. He is doing this for your own good."
Mu Chuwei frowned slightly.
Lin Lanzhi continued: "The feelings between us, whether exposed or not, will always be in our hearts, right?"
Mu Chuwei's eyes flickered slightly, and when he looked at her again, there was a hint of deep meaning in his eyes. He looked at her for half a minute before he sighed and said, "I know what to do. I'll take you home first. You stay at home and don't think about anything."
Lin Lanzhi nodded.
There was no point in her staying with him at this time, so the best option was to go home.
Mu Chuwei called a nanny car from the company. Along the way, neither of them said much, but just looking at each other, a simple eye contact, the other party could understand.
Perhaps she was a little tired, so Lin Lanzhi leaned over and rested her head on his shoulder, quietly enjoying the precious time with him. She felt that every minute and every second was precious, because she knew that perhaps in the future, even such time would become a luxury for her.
Finally arriving at the destination, Mu Chuwei stood beside the nanny car and watched her leave. He was wearing big sunglasses, and it was impossible to see the expression in his eyes. There was only a smile at the corner of his lips, but if you look closely, you can see that he was more or less disappointed.
When Lin Lanzhi walked towards the door of her house, she looked back almost every step. As she saw him getting farther and farther away, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
The moment she closed the door, she leaned against it helplessly, tears instantly soaking her eyes. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover her chest, the pain from there made her frown.
Why am I so sad?
Lin Lanzhi, you understood it from the beginning, didn't you? Something is bound to happen...
