No one had cared for her like this for a long time.
She didnât like fruits particularly. On the contrary, she never loved the fruits that needed to be peeled. Earlier, she ate the fruits only to make Nian Junting feel sorry.
Suddenly, she felt that it was actually nice to have a boyfriend.
She understood that she shouldnât keep herself isolated only because a man had once hurt her.
...
At about nine oâclock, Nian Junting prepared to park his car in the campus. Luosang stopped him and said, âDonât park here; just send me to the school gate.â
âNo, Iâm driving you in,â Nian Junting refused. âI want to see if anyone lighted candles or sang love songs for you tonight.â
The corners of Luosangâs mouth twitched slightly. âMr. Nian,â she said, âIâm not that popular, okay? Besides, youâve already told everybody in the forum that I have a boyfriend. Whoâll try to pursue me now?â
âDonât you know that quite some people like to steal othersâ girlfriends these days?â Nian Junting parked the car, insistinf on walking her to her dorm.
Luosang had no choice but to let him do what he wanted.
At night, in the campus, Nian Junting held her hand. Under the road lamps, their shadows were long.
Luosang glanced around, seeing plenty of copies. At night, students were mostly in pairs, so no one would notice them.
âLetâs go to a movie tomorrow. You seem to love movies. But we canât see Chi Shengxuâs movie,â Nian Junting said in a low voice. He believed that a couple needed to spend as much time as they could with each other.
Luosang smiled.
âMr. Nian,â she responded, âIâm afraid I donât have time for that. I have a part-time job.â
âDo you mean that crappy film crew that you worked with by the seaside last time?â Nian Junting asked.
âEh... not exactly a crappy crew. Itâs an idol drama. Many people have been looking forward to it,â she said.
âDonât go. That lame crew isnât good enough for you.â Nian Junting ignored her words and continued, âAnd you majored in broadcasting, so why should you waste your time doing meaningless jobs? Didnât you say that you love being a voice actor? You should take voice-acting internships. If you canât find one, Iâll arrange it for you.â
âYou donât need to...â
âDonât overthink this. I wonât suddenly make you voice act for the leading actresses, unless youâre capable enough to do that. Even though youâre my girlfriend, I canât make the film and television industry worse than it already is because of you.â
Lousang found his words both funny and annoying. However, she admired him for thinking in this way. After all, things like investors demanding their film crews to make their girlfriends the leading actress happened quite frequently. But unlike them, Nian Junting sounded impartial.
âMr. Nian, our relationship has just started. If youâre too nice to me, and I ask you for too much help, we might become unequal. So, please let me try to do it on my own first, okay?â
âWhy unequal?â Nian Junting wore an unhappy look and said, âYouâre my girlfriend, so itâs reasonable for me to help you.â
âBut the more you help me, the more Iâll think I owe you.â Luosang, too, knitted her brows, and said with a soft voice, âIf one day, I really need your help, Iâll tell you.â
âYouâre just regarding me as an outsider.â Nian Junting was mad. âIâve made it clear enough. Iâm not going to help you build your career. You still need to rely on your own efforts.â
âCan we discuss this later?â Lousang sighed. She appreciated him, but she couldnât let him help her. Once she did, he would soon find out that she was Xu Luosang from the Xu Group.
She didnât want to face her past.
Back then, wherever she went, everyone despised her and reproached her.
