Xu Jiannan looked up at him and pursed his lips.

"Brother Yi Yao, go ahead."

"Find a time to hold a press conference and clarify our relationship."

Lu Yiyao placed his hands on the desk. His eyes were black and bright, and his tone was irrepressible.

"Brother Yi Yao …"

The news had come too suddenly. Xu Jiannan could not believe what he had heard. His eyes were filled with shock and helplessness.

"Jianan, thank you for accompanying me for acting for so long. 'Paid' has already been posted to your personal account."

"No …" I... "Brother Yi Yao …"

Lu Yiyao's words were like a clap of thunder, exploding above her head. A long and bitter feeling of unwillingness overflowed through her heart.

"Brother Yi Yao, did I do something wrong?"

she asked carefully, full of anticipation.

"You didn't do anything wrong? Jianan, the contract is already filled. It's normal for you to cancel it. As an actor, you should know that. Besides, I did this to protect you. "

Lu Yi's eyebrows creased. He was already very unhappy.

Xu Jiannan's face was obviously stiff. He tightened his hands and forced himself to calm down as his nails stabbed into his palms. Biting her lips, her expression was as warm as ever.

"Brother Yi Yao, since it's like this, then you decide the time."

"Alright."

Lu Yi stood up, his tall body exuding a deep chill.

"Alright, I'll have Ding Wan inform you."

"Okay, Brother Yi Yao."

Xu Jiannan pursed his lips together as tears welled up in his eyes.

"Let's go, I'll send you back."

Lu Yi turned off his computer and walked towards the door with his phone in hand.

Xu Jiannan followed closely behind him.

Before he left, he glanced at the pot of boiling water and felt a chill in his heart.

Was the relationship between the two of them like this soup, gradually turning 'cold'?

Seeing the two leave together, everyone in the secretary's room smiled at each other.

He got into the car.

Xu Jiannan was still maintaining a safe distance from Lu Yiyao. He turned his head to look out the window at the buildings that passed by. The soreness in his chest rose to his throat.

The tears that had been welling up in his eyes could no longer be held back as they rolled down his cheeks.

The bony hand handed over a tissue. Xu Jiannan took it in a hurry, his voice trembling.

"Sorry, Brother Yi Yao, I …"

"Jianan, there are some things that I don't want to say anymore."

Lu Yiyao glanced at her. The light in his eyes was dark and gloomy, and his stern face was tense.

The air pressure inside the car suddenly dropped, and the cold air spread in all directions.

"Brother Yi Yao, I understand …"

Xu Jiannan pursed his pale lips as he spoke in a choked voice.

Her head was bowed, her eyes red, her hands clasped together.

Lu Yiyao's face clearly darkened. In the end, he didn't ask her to get out of the car immediately because of Xu Jia Mu.

Xu Jiannan, who had his head lowered, did not notice the change in his expression. He was debating whether to confess to him or not.

Perhaps, today was the last time they were travelling together.

In the future, he would never have such a chance again.

She wiped the fog from the corner of her eyes, bit her lower lip and summoned up her courage to speak softly.

"Brother Yi Yao, I've actually liked you. I've liked you for many years …"

The sudden confession caused Ding Mu, who was in the driver's seat, to tense up. He subconsciously looked in the rearview mirror and saw Lu Yi's distant and deep pupils contract. His face became much more solemn.

He quickly closed the curtain and let the two stay in a relatively private space.

Xu Jiannan adored Lu Yiyao. Everyone could see that.

But in Sir Boss' heart, I'm afraid that she's not here?

He could roughly guess what the BOSS would say next. Rejection was inevitable.

Ding Wan didn't want to embarrass Xu Jianan. After all, she was Xu Jianmu's only sister.

Xu Jia Mu and Lu Yiyao were close friends who had been through a long time.

Lu Yiyao had promised Xu Jianmu that he would protect Xu Jianan.

"Jianan, my wife is back."

Lu Yi's pitch-black pupils gradually contracted, converging into a ray of firm and sharp light.

Ye Xiao's face appeared right in front of him.

The corner of his lips slightly curled up, seeming to carry a trace of a faint smile.

This reason prevented anyone from having any thoughts about him.

Xu Jiannan: "…"

Lu Yiyao's calm words struck her like thunder. She thought she was hallucinating, and her ears began to hurt like needles. Then, the needle stabbed into her heart, causing her blood to congeal in pain.

She slowly tilted her head and looked at her familiar, stern face with shock. Her pale lips trembled as she wanted him to say it again. However, his throat was tightly stuffed, making no sound at all.

Xu Jiannan's soft facial features were covered in a thin layer of mist. His entire body was like a flower after a storm, dying without any signs of life.

My wife is back.

What did that mean?

He has a wife?

Who's his wife?

When did this happen?

Why didn't she know?

What did he mean by asking her to play his' Gossip Girl 'these three years?

The black Maybach suddenly stopped, and Lu Yi glanced at her, his thin lips slightly moving.

"Jia Nan, we're here."

Xu Jiannan's thick, long eyelashes trembled as he bit his lips and nodded. His trembling hands tried to pull the door open a few times.

Lu Yi knocked on the curtain in front of them. Ding Mu understood what was going on. He lifted the curtain and opened the door. He walked around the car and opened the door on Xu Jiannan's side.

"Miss Xu, after you."

Ding Wan put his hand on the edge of the car door, his voice still as respectful as before.

The car door opened and Xu Jiannan felt a chill down his spine. With her bag in hand, she walked out with her arms crossed and said to the person inside out of habit.

"Brother Yi Yao, I'm going in."

Her usually sweet voice was now filled with a hint of hoarseness, carrying an incomparable sense of loss and loneliness.

"Alright."

Lu Yiyao glanced at her and replied indifferently.
