“Back then, I was… short, and my face was covered in pimples, not like now.” Chi Shengxu shrugged smilingly while continuing, “I know that something happened in your family, but, what your father did has nothing to do with your talent that I’ve seen. Sadly, soon afterward you disappeared. When I saw you again, I found that you’ve changed your family name. That’s a good thing actually. You can come back to the dubbing circle with a different name, and just let bygones be bygones. I really want to help you to return to that circle, and I sincerely want to be your friend.”

His eyes were clear, and he seemed to mean what he had said.

Luosang paused for a little while. She guessed that Chi Shengxu didn’t know that she was banned by Yi Jingxi.

After all, he was just an actor, and may not know so much about the things behind the screen.

But still, she was gratified because he didn’t try to hit her when she was down like most of the people she knew had done.

“I get it. Let me buy you lunch,” said Luosang. She felt relieved.

“No, I’m buying you lunch. Like I’ve said, it’ll be my apology,” Chi Shengxu’s eyes glowed. After saying that, he walked out along with Luosang with a bright smile.

After lunch, Luosang headed back to the dorm for a nap. On her way, she got a call from Zhong Yi.

“Luosang, you don’t want to work here anymore because you’ve hooked up with a guy with a sports car, do you? In this case, don’t blame me for letting Supervisor Yuan’s online series get banned,” said Zhong Yi.

“Supervisor Yuan’s online series is supposed to air next month. But I haven’t heard anything about it even though this month is ending. Who knows how long you’re gonna make us wait,” said Luosang blandly, “Since I feel hopeless, I can’t possibly waste all my time on you, and let you make fun me of. Besides, I don’t think I should ruin my own reputation because of Supervisor Yuan’s online series by serving the same man with you, do I? I’m not a goddess who can help all the people in distress.”

“What do you mean?” Zhong Yi sounded nervous.

“Ask Yi Jingxi. I broke up with him long ago. He’s with you now, but still, he came to harass me. I feel disgusted.” Finished, Luosang hung up the phone.

On the other side of the phone, Zhong Yi uneasily looked at the man beside her and said, “Jingxi, you heard her…”

Yi Jingxi remained silent, but turned around to look outside through the French window.

‘I feel disgusted’—This short sentence echoed in his mind.

He looked at his own reflection in the window, recalling all the sweet words Luosang used to say when putting her arms around his neck.

‘Jingxi, why are you so handsome?’

‘Jingxi, why do I like you so much?’

‘Jingxi, I want to be your wife. Would you marry me?’

…

Now, he felt that his heart was empty, and was aching.

The old days were beautiful, yet he could never go back.

…

Luosang had stopped working for Zhong Yi. She wasn’t sure about what Zhong Yi and Yi Jingxi would do to Supervisor Yuan and his team. Earlier, she served the two every single day, but Supervisor Yuan’s online series never made progress.

She guessed that the two might be fooling her around, so she decided to let them know that they couldn’t always threaten her.

Most importantly, she felt that being with Yi Jingxi was a very dangerous thing, so she needed to try staying away from him.

Recently, Ye Chuen was busying preparing her new album. Tang Ning was back home for the weekend, and Yan Su was busy too. Therefore, Luosang was often alone in the dorm.

At dusk, Lusang went back to the dorm from the library. While she was taking a shower, she heard some noises from the outside.

“Su, are you back?”

No one responded. Luosang had a bad feeling.

She quickly put on her clothes and walked out, but no one was in the dorm.
