“That’s because Yu Caiwei’s parents were strongly against the idea of you two getting married. They made it seem as if you were desperate to marry her. They made their daughter out to be a precious gem…”


“Mother, what do you think of Fang Erlan?”


Mrs. Yan’s eyes widened in shock and she asked, “Son, is she your girlfriend?”


“Yes, it’s her. We just started dating each other exclusively,” Yan Ge admitted.


Staring at her son earnestly, Mrs. Yan said, “No wonder you’re working with her for two productions in a row. You initially said that you wanted to take a break, yet you still took on another job. Well, I think she’s a nice girl, but what does her family do for a living?”


“They’re just an average middle-cla.s.s family. What do you think? Mother, what matters is I fancy her. Just stay out of it, alright? Erlan is a really great girl, you’ll understand once you spend more time with her,” Yan Ge said, staring at his mother earnestly.


“Okay, okay, I didn’t even say anything. Look how tensed up and worried you’re getting.”


“I know you have high expectations of your daughter-in-law, but it’s time you lowered your expectations for my sake. After all, I’m the one who’s going to spend the rest of my life with her.”


“Son, I didn’t say anything, did I? Since you’re in love with her, just continue dating her and worry about the rest later,” said Mrs. Yan, who knew that she could not compel him.


Upon returning to the hotel, Mrs. Yan immediately informed her husband about the piece of news.


She then told him that she planned to stay behind for a period of time to observe Fang Erlan and learn more about her.


Mr. Yan was in full support of her decision.



Xiao Chenyang returned to his room on the ninth floor after sending Fang Erlan back to her room.


Fang Erlan washed up, changed out of her clothes, and got ready for bed. To her surprise, the doorbell rang all of sudden at almost eleven o’clock at night.


The first person that came to her mind was Yan Ge.


“Who’s there?”


“It’s me.”


The voice…


Belonged to neither Yan Ge nor Xiao Chenyang. It was… Jing Shui.


“What’s the matter?” Fang Erlan asked, not planning to open the door.


“Open the door and let me come inside to talk to you about something.”


“I’m turning in now. Tell me tomorrow instead.”


“Erlan, open the door, hurry. I really have something important to tell you,” said Jing Shui, who sounded panicky and eager.


Thinking that it might really be an urgent matter, Fang Erlan decided to open the door.


As soon as she did, she was greeted with the sight of Jing Shui, whose face was flushed and who reeked of alcohol. However, he seemed sober and sounded normal.


“You drank?”


“Yes, a little.”


“Your face is really flushed.”


“It’s because of the alcohol. May I enter?”


Fang Erlan moved away from the door and said, “Come in. Just what are you looking me up for? I was already planning to go to bed.”


Jing Shui closed the door and took out a bank account card and pa.s.sbook from the black plastic bag in his hands. He then handed both the items to Fang Erlan.


Greatly taken aback, Fang Erlan did not accept the items and instead asked, “What are these for?”


“Erlan, these are all my life savings. They amount to a total of more than six million dollars. I’ll give them all to you. I’ll give you all the money that I earn in the future too. Let’s get married, I’ll be good to you.”


Fang Erlan was dumbfounded. What was going on?


“Married? What are you talking about? Jing Shui, it’s impossible between us. So, don’t say such things again from now on,” said Fang Erlan, who retreated backward.


“Do you find the money too little?”


Shaking her head, Fang Erlan said, “It’s not about the money. Jing Shui, I only see you as my friend. I’ve never thought about being in a relations.h.i.+p with you. Don’t you understand what I mean?”


“If you’ve never thought about it before, why don’t you think about it now?”


“I already have a boyfriend now.”


“What? You have a boyfriend? Who is he? Tell me who he is,” Jing Shui said apprehensively.


“I don’t wish to tell you who he is, but I really have a boyfriend now.”


“It can’t be Yan Ge, can it?”


Fang Erlan did not admit or deny it and instead said, “Regardless of who he may be, it’s simply impossible between you and me. Go back to your room to get some rest. I have to get back to work tomorrow morning. I’m really tired now too.”


Jing Shui finally retracted his hand and said, “Go to bed, then.”


“Jing Shui.”


Jing Shui stared at her quietly and waited for her to continue speaking.


“I initially wanted to just be friends with you. However, it seems we might not even be able to be friends from now on. It’s better that we cut ties with each other, lest you cause me any more disturbances,” said Fang Erlan, who thought that it was better to make things clear. What he did tonight made her feel that it would be better for them not to be friends.


“You mean, you don’t even want to be ordinary friends with me?”


“Yes.”


“Alright, since you’ve said that, let’s just pretend that it was wishful thinking on my part. I can’t believe I actually decided to act in this television series for the sake of getting to see you frequently. You don’t recognize my efforts at all!” He then opened the door and stormed off in a huff.


Why is he making it seem like it’s my fault?


She stood up and closed the door before lying down on the bed again, feeling an immense headache.


She was already embroiled in a knotty situation, but Jing Shui just had to show up to make matters worse.


In fact, she had barely interacted with Jing Shui since filming took up the bulk of her days, leaving her with little to no time of her own.


Just why does Jing Shui fancy me?


Even though I played with him once when I stayed in his aunt’s house for a few months, we were just children back then.


Fang Erlan had a vague memory of her childhood.


Hence, she did not feel upset about cutting ties with him at all.


In fact, she even felt relieved because she no longer had to be embroiled in a messy relations.h.i.+p with him from now on.


Ding-Dong… Ding-Dong…


Fang Erlan sat up straight and thought to herself, Is Jing Shui at my door again?


She remained silent. The knocking soon stopped.


Did he leave?


Fang Erlan lay down again and switched off the bedside lamp.


To her surprise, the doorbell began to ring again.


Fang Erlan called out, “Who’s there?”


There was still no response.


Unable to tolerate it any further, Fang Erlan got out of bed and walked toward the door, barefooted. She then peeked through the peephole.


There was not a single soul outside the door.


Did he leave?


When the doorbell began to ring again, she hurriedly peeped outside, only to discover that there was still no one outside…


Fang Erlan felt a cold s.h.i.+ver down her spine. Is this a prank?


I shall see just who that senseless idiot is!


She grabbed the handle of the door and flung the door open as soon as the doorbell began to ring again. Yet, there was still no one.


She walked outside and craned her neck to take a look around the corridor. There was not a single soul in sight.


She instantly got the chills. Reminded of the supernatural occurrences that took place during filming previously, she stood rooted to the ground in shock.


The doors of the elevator opened abruptly, and she finally recovered from the shock the moment she saw Xiao Chenyang walking out of the elevator.
