When they parted ways on the racetrack, the two of them never saw each other again.

Xu Liunian originally thought that her heartless departure that day would cause him to give up all hope, but she didn't expect that he would still be as deep in love and gentleness as usual.

"Senior, why are you here?"

Unlike the happy and relaxed expression he had when he saw Ling Moqi, Xu Liunian felt a little awkward. When he came in earlier, his unrestrained smile froze on his face, and he also put down the tray with his head held high.

Slightly slow, she placed the wine on the table.

She knew what kind of image she had in Cen Linrong's heart. Of course, she didn't want to ruin it, but sometimes, it was just a coincidence that he would run into her.

Seeing the woman in front of him dressed in revealing clothes, his entire body emitting an enticing perfume scent, Cen Linrong felt a pain in his heart.

The sunny girl from before had now become like this. He wanted to get her out of this situation, and if she wanted, he would do his best to help her.

Although it was a bit awkward, Xu Liunian still opened a bottle of wine, poured two cups of wine, walked over and handed one to him, and said, "This is for you, senior."

She didn't know what this toast was about, she only wanted to toast and thank Cen Linrong for everything he had done for her.

"Alright."

As if he was very happy, Cen Linrong smiled and took the cup and touched it with hers. When he smiled, it was as warm as ever, and his eyes seemed to hide something.

Naturally, Xu Liunian knew what was hidden inside.

As the cup of wine entered her stomach, the awkward meeting with her previously dissipated quite a bit as well, and Xu Liunian once again poured wine before sitting beside Cen Linrong.

"Senior, why have you come looking for me?"

Cen Linrong felt very hurt. Could it be that the relationship between them had already turned into one of not contacting each other as long as there was nothing going on?

Sensing that Cen Linrong's expression had changed, Xu Liunian also felt a little embarrassed. She did not think too much, the upperclassman's nature was kind and he thought too much, such a sentence would inevitably make him feel sad.

"Welcome!"

With the cup touching lightly, Xu Liunian took a sip.

"Fleeting Time, how have you been recently?"

The two of them stayed silent for a while, before Cen Linrong spoke out.

That day at the racetrack, he had wanted to rush over and hug her, to feel her warmth, to see if the person who had escaped death had been harmed.

However, there was another man by her side. This man had just defeated him in the competition, which made him lose face in front of Fleeting Time, as if he could never compare to Lu Jianqing.

So he didn't go forward, but waited for Fleeting Time to find him.

But he didn't. In his heart, he already knew that between him and Lu Jianqing, Fleeting Time would always choose Lu Jianqing. Unless it was to make use of him, that person would walk over to his side.

He knew that he had seen everything clearly, but he was willing. He was willing to be used. He was willing to stand by her side when Fleeting Time needed it.

Actually she wasn't doing well, she had to continue fulfilling the contract and help Lu Jianqing at a time when her heart was aching.

However, she didn't want her senior to worry about her, so she smiled bitterly and raised her hand, "Fortunately, everything has returned to normal!"

How could Cen Linrong not understand the melancholy that flashed past her eyes!

When Fleeting Time had left with him, he had told him that he was willing to stay with him and ask him to help her redeem herself. He was willing, he was willing! This was the joy that he had been waiting for so many years.

But who would have thought that on the second day came the news of the fire. It was as if he had lost everything.

It was an eternal regret for someone who had never obtained such an opportunity to leave forever.

Fleeting Time had returned and was standing right in front of him. The heavens had given him a chance, he had to seize it. He couldn't let Fleeting Time slip away from his hands again, he had to grab onto her tightly!

"Fleeting Time, is what you said still true?"

"What?"

She didn't understand what Cen Linrong meant, but her puzzled expression made him feel depressed again.

"Let me help you redeem yourself."

He could not wait to say these words. He waited for Xu Liunian to happily agree to him with a smile, and then leave with him.

But there was nothing. When Xu Liunian heard this, she became absent-minded for a moment, and didn't know how to reply.

"Fleeting Time, aren't you willing?"

Cen Linrong did not expect it to be like this, he placed his hand on her shoulder and pulled her over, then asked worriedly.

Xu Liunian lowered her head, her fingers digging around the rim of the cup, completely revealing the unease in her heart.

Yes, she didn't want to.

She was only pondering how she should answer so as to avoid harming Cen Linrong as much as possible.

"Fleeting Time, why aren't you talking?"

Cen Linrong lifted his hand and gently stroked her hair twice, as if he was comforting an injured kitten. This kind of contact made him feel very happy.

However, to Xu Liunian, it was very resistance. She dodged a little, raised her eyes and pulled back her hair as she said, "Senior, there's no need."

In the end, she rejected him directly without any buffer.

"Why?"

Cen Linrong couldn't understand, in just a few months, how did things turn out like this?

"Senior, I don't want to trouble you. You've already helped me a lot, I don't want to owe you any more."

Her eyes were a little red, Xu Liunian bit her lips and replied. With her current condition, to Cen Linrong, she was just a burden.

This kind of explanation was undoubtedly a blow to Cen Linrong. He painfully clenched his teeth, and his hand that was on Xu Liunian's shoulder also unconsciously exerted all of his strength.

"Senior, you …"

Xu Liunian cried out in pain, only then did Cen Linrong let go of his hand in panic: "Sorry Fleeting Time, I didn't do it on purpose, I just..."

He simply could not explain it clearly. He only felt somewhat sad and somewhat angry in his heart.

"Fleeting Time, come with me!" I'll bring you home, don't work at Muse anymore! "

He was a little excited, but he kept expressing his wish, as if he had lost control of it. Xu Liunian was a little afraid in her heart, and she dodged backwards.

"Senior, don't be like this, I just don't want to make things difficult for you. There's a lot of money and your sister doesn't like me either. I don't want to go to your house, so don't ask anymore."

"Why?!"

Cen Linrong's voice grew even more stern. She had never heard his senior speak to her like this, but it was clear that the situation had already begun to become uncontrollable.

"Fleeting Time, why do you have to be so formal with me? It's true that I'm a senior, but you shouldn't keep treating me as your senior. In your heart, you aren't even willing to leave me the position of an ordinary friend! "
