Hearing Landlady Auntie mention Su Jiawang's name caused my heart to tremble, to the point that I didn't dare to reply even after she talked for so long.

I dare not look at Gao Kan's face.

Unexpectedly, he only said in a flat tone, "En, I'm not. My surname is Gao and I'm Xiao Yi's friend."

Oh, Mr. Gao, I'm so sorry, my eyes were a little blurry, I thought you were Su Jiawang, but the two of you look like you. After Landlady Auntie finished speaking, he once again busily wiped the table.

I pretended not to hear anything, and guiltily tidied up the shelves in the bedroom, and quickly looked if there were any traces left behind by Su Jiawang.

Immersed in the sweetness of studying and love, I had almost completely forgotten all about Su Jiawang. If not for the fact that even Landlady Auntie mentioned him like this, I wouldn't have realized it, but he actually left such a thick mark in my life that many of my old friends would have thought of him the moment they saw me.

In the living room, Gao Kan and the Landlady Auntie were talking about something, I couldn't really hear them. I wiped the dressing table and other stuff, over and over again, and wrote a lot of words on the books on the bookshelf. I kept putting them into garbage bags and stuffed them under the bed until it was completely quiet.

He didn't have any expression on his face, and his eyes were very calm. It was as if there was a layer of gauze covering his face, making it hard for people to see what he was thinking.

"What are you thinking about?" I was a little flustered, so I randomly asked a few questions and then said to myself, "This room smells really bad. I'll open the window and bask in the sun for a while. Can we go eat later?"

Gao Kan replied indifferently. Without even looking at me, he walked into the small washroom.

For a moment, I felt as if an invisible wall had been erected between us, and the gap that I thought had been torn down but had re-appeared was coming back.

Gao Kan came out of the bathroom after a while, and between his fingers was a half-burnt cigarette. He pointed to the inside and said: "Wash your face and makeup, I will go and smoke." Then he walked to the balcony outside the living room and closed the door.

The gesture of restraint and refusal made my heart sink.

Today, Gao Kan was wearing a black and red POLO shirt, soft blue jeans, and sneakers. He no longer had the heavy temperament that he had when wearing a suit.

If I hadn't damned well suggested that we come back here, we'd be in a hotel somewhere with delicious meals, wine, sweet talk, and the prospect of tomorrow's trip and vacation arrangements.

However, he was currently leaning listlessly against the window on the balcony to prevent theft. He was smoking heavily, and a messy smoke ring was being exhaled from his lips.

The flame of the cigarette went from bright to weak, the end of the cigarette quivering, until the short, gray tip of the cigarette was casually flicked away and a second cigarette was pulled out and pressed between his lips.

I really want to walk over and hug Gao Kan.

However, he only dared to hide at the side, afraid that his sensitive nerve fibers would be triggered by the word 'wrong'.

I have never forgotten when he received the photo and what he did after he saw it. I did not dare to ask Gao Kan about these things, let alone talk about it.

After standing in place for a while, I opened my luggage, took out a set of makeup and a set of face cleanser. With a set of clean clothes, I went to the bathroom and washed up before changing into a set of clothes that were similar to Gao Kan's.

After drying his hair and doing all of this, when I came out, Gao Kan had already returned to the living room. He poked and tapped his phone with his finger, and when he saw me, he immediately asked me in a normal tone, "Is there a supermarket nearby?"

"Hmm?"

Gao Kan said: "I just went to the kitchen to take a look, the food is pretty complete and the gas is also running low, I'm short of ingredients. Let's go buy some dishes and come back to cook."

He looked normal, as if nothing had happened.

"Didn't you say there was a dinner party?"

When I walked over, Gao Kan automatically took away the rubber band on my wrist and tied it with a ball. Then, he patted my head and said, "Let's meet again tonight, let's go?"

"Yes."

I wore a mask and carried my backpack. Gao Kan picked up a jacket casually and slung it over his shoulder.

We walked out, one in front of the other. When we reached the door, I couldn't stop feeling sad, so I hugged him from behind and whispered, "Hubby, I love you. Don't be mad at me, okay?"

Gao Kan's body was slightly stiff, he turned around and frowned, as though he did not understand what I was saying, "What are you angry about? What are you thinking, you little brain! "

"I …" I'm not sure if I'm thinking too much.

"Let's go." Gao Kan rubbed the small ball on top of my head. The smile on his face felt warm, as unintentional as usual.

"Yes." I hope I'm overthinking it, I thought.

However, on the way to the supermarket, Gao Kan was visibly quieter than before.

He was so focused on driving that he didn't even look at the front passenger seat. I just sat there nervously, thinking about how I could talk to him and pry open that awkward man in his heart who was stuck in the dark.

There's a Wal-Mart supermarket half an hour away from the small apartment. I went to the entrance of the shop to push a shopping cart while Gao Kan went to park.

Today was National Day, so there were a lot of people. This large supermarket was the only place near here that was packed full of people.

The cart crashed against the cart, the heel of the man behind it trampling on it.

He didn't send me any messages. Yesterday, there were a few people in the second generation group that were trying to console him, and there were even a few who gloated, saying that I could already tell that this woman didn't seem like a good person, that she had praised me to be pure and clean. Turns out that she was just a bitch, even faking her pregnancy, she thought that this was some kind of TV show.

Since noon, Hao Zi had not spoken a single word.

The matter between him and that Ouyang Xinzi (Wang Yuan) is now known by the entire internet. Even the top ranking media site that I browse through daily has sent me the news.

In the comments, someone had found out that she was playing a certain role in "The Age of Qingcheng". They had gone to the official Weibo of "The Age of Qingcheng" to protest, strongly demanding that the character be replaced and cut out.

There were also people who suspected that the entire incident was a hype orchestrated by E.G. The current "Qingcheng era" had gone from being the focus of everyone's attention, to being an unknown cause of failure. The second male lead was missing, while the female and female duo were at loggerheads, there seemed to be dangers of pregnancy and death.
