After being blamed like this, Lin Xiaojuan was shocked. She was speechless. She felt so wrongly accused, but Gu Xie looked so hurt. Lin Xiaojuan could not hide her insecurities any longer. “Gu Xie, I always feel that you liking me is like winning the lottery. The chance is one in a million. To me, you are insurmountable. You are too far for me to reach. I… I don’t really believe that you really love me. I’m sorry. Please don’t be mad at me.

“I am not confident enough. I always feel like-I feel like I’m not good enough for you and that you should love a perfect lady. I have loved Yan Jianming before, so this makes me self-deprecating in front of you. When I first heard from He Xiaoai that I was a substitute, I was very angry, but I also felt some kind of sudden realization. It turned out that I looked like someone you like, so maybe you are putting your love on me instead. Afterward, when you did not even look at me when Jing Yun and I stood before you, I kind of accepted it. So what if you guys had been in love? Who hasn’t been in love? You are 28 years old this year, and it is only weird if you have never dated anyone. I don’t mind it at all. I have never suspected that you are a liar, not in the slightest bit.”

She spoke so quickly and anxiously.

Yet, she expressed them very clearly.

Gu Xie seemed to understand something.

The gloomy cloud in his heart dispersed.

Now he felt sorry.

He was the one that was not good enough. He could not give her a sense of security.

“There is nothing going on between Jing Yun and me. When I acted in that movie as a guest back then, I had actually wanted to have a few more words with you and to see you more often. I was afraid that it’d be too sudden, so I took part in Jing Yun’s show. I hoped that I would see you and get your name card in an appropriate manner.

“Who knew that you seldom appeared at the filming scene? I was so disappointed. Back then, although you were not at the filming scene, you were always on the phone with Jing Yun. I listened at a side, and I felt that your relationship was really good. Jing Yun often tried to please me as well. Thinking that the two of you were best friends, I came here to support your artiste so that your friend would have a better impression of me.”

Lin Xiaojuan was speechless.

She just wanted to say one sentence: Movie King, you could’ve just come and asked me for my contact number…

It’s very normal for artistes and managers to form connections.

You beat around the bush and still didn’t get my contact number in the end. What is this?

Indeed, he does not know how to make himself known.

He seemed to know what she was thinking, so he said helplessly, “Back then, I was already a famous Movie King for very long. Regardless of human resources or monetary resources, Xu Ning surpassed you. You were just a newbie manager. I could not find a reason to ask you for a name card.”

Lin Xiaojuan was speechless.

“What next?”

Gu Xie said, “Then there was nothing else.”

“That’s all?”

“Yeah!” Gu Xie said. “I treated Jing Yun to a meal thrice, and they were all near the filming set. The last time when she spoke ill of you, I stopped giving her attention.”

He hated everyone who spoke ill of Lin Xiaojuan.

Lin Xiaojuan was speechless.

“What had she said about me?”

Gu Xie paused. He felt that it was not right to speak behind others’ backs, but the person before him was his girlfriend, not an outsider. He said softly, “She complained that you were biased. You did not give her enough resources, and you gave most of the benefits to others. Between her words, I could tell that she was really dissatisfied.”
