Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

Yan Su was shocked. She was wondering how the reporters found them, and she even suspected that Shi Xiang hired them.

“I’ve asked around.” Chen Chen narrowed his eyes and said, “She probably did that to distract us. She wants to keep our hands full, so we can’t give her trouble.”

Yan Su understood. What a sneaky woman. Indeed, what happened between her and Shi Xiang was big news now.

“Thank you for keeping it secret. Don’t worry, we won’t let this affect your reputation. Shi Xiang told me about it before I came here.” Chen Chen finished talking and left.

Yan Su gazed at Chen Chen’s back.

Jiaojiao walked up to her, handed her a new phone and said, “I’ve reissued your phone card. Don’t lose your phone again.”

“Thank you.” Yan Su took it over.

Jiaojiao hesitated then said, “How are things going with you and Mr. Mo? Was he angry when he read the news?”

Yan Su dropped her head and didn’t know what to say.

Jiaojiao sighed and said continued with, “You two were in such a good relationship. I don’t know why you met Shi Xiang. To be honest, if I were him, I’d feel deeply betrayed.”

Yan Su stayed silent for a while, then couldn’t help but argue saying, “But a relationship can be built upon trust. You see, you and Miss. Xiang believe what I said…”

“That’s because we’re not your boyfriend,” Jiaojiao interrupted her. “If my boyfriend went out for a whole night with another girl, I’d feel being betrayed too. I might even break up with him. The more he cares about you, the angrier he gets.”

Yan Su dropped her eyes.

She thought about how Mo Liuxi might feel, but she wouldn’t have asked him to strip and check his body if she were in his place.

“Jiaojiao, do you really think that he and I are suitable for each other?” Yan Su said. That relationship started too suddenly anyway. “He’s so much younger than I am.”

“You’re not thinking about getting back together with Shi Xiang, are you?” Jiaojiao was surprised.

“How can that be possible?” Yan Su hurriedly shook her head and said, “Liuxi is good, but sometimes he scares me.”

Jiaojiao looked at her with a weird expression, then responded with, “Be careful with your relationship. Couples break up and get back together, that’s a normal thing. Before you get married, you’ll never know who you’re marrying.”

Yan Su was confused.

On her way back home, Luosang called her and asked about Shi Xiang.

She didn’t say much.

After learning that nothing was going on between her and Shi Xiang, Luosang didn’t ask more questions.

At 4:00 p.m., Shi Xiang released an announcement on Weibo—’Yan Su and I knew each other since high school. We were each other’s first love. Later, we broke up. Some reporters took a picture of us in a hotel last night. We were in the hotel together, but things weren’t like what some people might think. We were trying to make it clear to each other about our past relationship and give each other closure. Also, my assistant was in the room with us. I wasn’t able to drop the relationship before, but after a long conversation last night, both Yan Su and I realized that we are not able to go back. We wish each other the best.”

Yan Su re-posted it and added —’I wish Shi Xiang a good life.’

Within one hour, over thirty-thousand comments were left under that post.

Some said that was something to celebrate, some felt pity. Some of their old classmates showed up online and said that they were a sweet couple, and that people used to believe they would be together forever, and never leave each other…
