Jian Liangtong pursed her lips tightly and looked at him pitifully.
Huo Shaojun squinted, "What happened while I was away?"
"I really have nothing with Huo Chengjin. Just now, he saw I was about to ’fall,’ so he helped , that’s all. It just happened that you saw it and misunderstood." Jian Liangtong thought he was going to pursue the matter of Huo Chengjin ’holding’ her just now, and hurriedly explained.
Huo Shaojun frowned, "Besides Chengjin, did anyone else co?"
"..." Jian Liangtong was at a loss for words, her bright eyes staring at Huo Shaojun, "No."
"Who is it?" Huo Shaojun asked directly.
Jian Liangtong, "..."
"My mom?" Huo Shaojun pressed his lips.
Jian Liangtong was silent.
Huo Shaojun glanced at her, "Apart from her, who else?"
Jian Liangtong furrowed her brows, her slightly wrinkled little face looking a bit sullen.
Seeing her like this, Huo Shaojun’s distinct jaw tightened, "Tongtong..."
"And your ex-girlfriend." Jian Liangtong muttered gloomily.
Ex-girlfriend? What nonsense is that?
"I had an ex-girlfriend? How co I don’t know?" Huo Shaojun said coldly.
Uh...
Jian Liangtong stared at him with her clear large eyes, "kindly" reminding him, "Song Yun, the one who lived with you abroad for several years, do you rember now?"
"..." Huo Shaojun twitched his lips, his expression inexplicably made Jian Liangtong sense so disdain.
Jian Liangtong felt suffocated, turning her eyes elsewhere, feeling blocked, she didn’t want to look at him.
But in the next second, her face was cupped in his large hand and turned back.
Jian Liangtong frowned, glaring at him with fish-like dead eyes, muttering, "I suffered a great loss. If I had known, I wouldn’t have been idle, I would have found myself a few ex-boyfriends to enrich my life too."
"Dream on!" Huo Shaojun unceremoniously gave Jian Liangtong a light knock on the head, speaking fiercely, "If I hear such absurd words again, I’ll seal your mouth!"
"You’re domineering!" Jian Liangtong grumbled uncomfortably, "You’re allowed to have countless girlfriends, and I’m not even allowed to say anything!"
"..." Huo Shaojun glared at Jian Liangtong, angered to the point of a headache.
Seeing him not speak, Jian Liangtong thought he was silent, guilty, and had nothing to say.
Feeling sour inside, Jian Liangtong glanced at him sideways with dissatisfaction, "No words left, huh?"
Huo Shaojun took a deep breath, closed his eyes, then suddenly opened them, grabbing Jian Liangtong by the shoulders, his cold eyes staring at her seriously, "Listen, the only girlfriend I’ve ever had, from start to finish, is you, Jian Liangtong!"
"..."
Jian Liangtong stared at him for quite a while, then mumbled, "Why so serious, I believe you, alright."
Huo Shaojun almost wanted to strangle her!
Jian Liangtong lowered her eyelids, her almond eyes secretly joyful.
Huo Shaojun tilted her chin up again, his eyes fixed on hers, "Then who is the woman my mom brought today?"
"... How did you know your mom brought a woman?" Jian Liangtong was surprised, she rembered she hadn’t ntioned that Fang Jingting had brought Song Yun today!
Huo Shaojun frowned, "If my mom hadn’t brought soone, would you be here eating vinegar out of nowhere?"
"I’m not jealous!" Jian Liangtong blushed to the tips of her ears, stubbornly retorting.
Huo Shaojun chuckled and pinched Jian Liangtong’s face, "With your little tricks, who are you trying to fool?"
Jian Liangtong’s face also reddened, her large clear eyes gazed at him.
"Hurry up and tell ?" Huo Shaojun urged sternly.
Jian Liangtong pouted, speaking softly, "She said her na is Song Yun."
Hearing Jian Liangtong ntion Song Yun, there wasn’t the slightest change in Huo Shaojun’s expression, "Did she say she was my girlfriend?"
"Though she didn’t explicitly say she was your ex-girlfriend, she ntioned that you both lived abroad together for many years, that you were together.
If you were together, didn’t that an you were once in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship? Moreover, your mom also said you were together." Jian Liangtong looked at him, her tone sowhat sour.
"So naive!"
After listening to Jian Liangtong, Huo Shaojun dismissively rewarded her with two words.
Jian Liangtong pouted slightly in defiance, "How am I naive?"
"Aren’t you naive? Do you believe everything they say?" Huo Shaojun said.
"I didn’t completely believe it, if I did, I wouldn’t be talking to you, I would have directly..."
"Directly what? If you dare to say it, I..."
"Threatening again?"
Jian Liangtong straightened her soft waist, her fragrant palm covering Huo Shaojun’s mouth, angrily saying, "I’m a pregnant woman now, you can’t keep threatening like before!"
Huo Shaojun stared into her eyes that were glittering with anger, a softness flickering through his cold eyes, he gently pulled down her small hand covering his lips, lightly sighing, "It seems in the past ten years, you really didn’t pay any attention to , or maybe you completely forgot about ."
"..." Jian Liangtong felt a pang in her heart, her eyes quickly covered with a layer of red, she muttered hoarsely, "Yes, I forgot you."
In the past ten years, had she really forgotten him for even a day?
She knew he beca a big star, her surroundings were flooded with news about him, even when she went to the cafeteria for a al, she would see his posters.
But she had to pretend not to know this man.
Force herself not to deliberately pay attention to him, to learn anything about him.
Because she was the one who was ’abandoned.’
Huo Shaojun cupped Jian Liangtong’s face, his cold eyes deeply looking at her, "Have you really forgotten?"
"Mm." Jian Liangtong sniffed, nodding vigorously.
Huo Shaojun’s eyes seed to flicker with a shadow of sadness, "For the past ten years, there hasn’t been a mont I haven’t thought of you."
Jian Liangtong looked at him. Emotionally, she wanted to believe him, because knowing that the person she had thought about day and night for ten years also had her in his heart was a delightful surprise.
But rationally.
She didn’t want to believe it.
If he truly thought of her, why didn’t he co to find her? A full ten years! He didn’t co looking for her even once!
"You don’t believe , do you?"
Huo Shaojun lowered his head, his high nose lightly brushing against hers, his voice growing hoarse, "Tongtong, whether you believe it or not, in these ten years, I’ve really missed you."
Both Huo Shaojun and Rong Mochen were reserved in their feelings.
Sugary sweet words and cheesy declarations, if spoken deliberately, perhaps neither of them could get them out.
Their only true intentions are naturally revealed.
Otherwise, even if you pried their mouths open with steel bars, they might not say a single pleasant word.
Jian Liangtong pressed her lower lip tightly, speaking softly, "But in these ten years, you never ca to find ."
"Co with !"
Huo Shaojun suddenly put her down, got up, and walked toward the spiral staircase.
Jian Liangtong stood stunned for a mont, then imdiately followed him.
Huo Shaojun walked up to the small room on the top floor.
The house had four floors, and the fourth floor only had this one room.
Jian Liangtong looked suspiciously at Huo Shaojun standing in front of the door, her heart beating a bit faster.
Huo Shaojun glanced deeply at Jian Liangtong before reaching out to twist open the door.
As the door was pushed open, a fresh scent of gardenias hit her, and Jian Liangtong instinctively took a gentle sniff, feeling as if she was suddenly back on her college campus.
However, in the next second, Jian Liangtong suddenly took two steps back, her delicate cheeks going slightly pale either from shock or surprise.
Her large, moist almond eyes widened, her red lips slightly parted as she stared at the scene inside the room.
The walls, ceiling, and even the floor of the room were covered with large and small photos and posters everywhere.
In fact, from outside to inside the room, it was hard to know where to step.
And in all these photos, there was one person... herself!
So of the photos even had a slight yellow tinge, looking rather aged.
Her elentary school graduation, middle school graduation, group photos with all her classmates, her solo shots, and many photos she didn’t even know existed...
Jian Liangtong held her cheeks, suddenly turning to look at Huo Shaojun, she was too shocked to speak.
Huo Shaojun looked at her warmly, "Now, do you still think I’ve never been to see you?"
"..."
Jian Liangtong’s pupils trembled, with moist red liquid swirling in her eyes, she spoke in a voice mixed with sobs and hoarseness, "Did you take all these?"
"Not all of them, so were , and when I couldn’t make it, I had Guan Yu go." Huo Shaojun said.
Jian Liangtong bit her lower lip hard to barely hold back her tears, "Since, since... why didn’t you et ?"
Huo Shaojun suddenly squinted, "I have my reasons."
"What reasons do you have?" Jian Liangtong asked, sowhat angrily.
Ten years!
She thought she had been inexplicably "abandoned" by him for ten years.
Every ti she thought of it, she felt sad for a long ti.
Now he rcilessly revealed the truth in front of her.
He told her.
That during the past ten years he did not abandon her, but silently watched her from where she couldn’t see.
Tears fell pathetically from her eyes, and Jian Liangtong didn’t care, she just stared at Huo Shaojun with red eyes questioning him.
Huo Shaojun watched her tearful, blurry eyes, his heart tugged, a flicker of helplessness quickly crossing his eyes, "The first play I took on was when I had just gone abroad to study at eighteen, ten years till now.
The house I lived in abroad was bought by my parents to facilitate my studies, but because I was filming outside most of the ti, I rarely returned to the villa. The house is my parents’, so I have no right to interfere with who they let live there."
But ever since Song Yun moved into that house, he never went back to stay even once.
Jian Liangtong choked, wiping her tears sadly with the back of her pale hand.
She knew he was deliberately changing the subject.
He wouldn’t tell her why he didn’t et her in the past ten years.
Jian Liangtong was powerless.
When he didn’t want to talk, she really couldn’t do anything.
But she was simply overwheld with sadness, an unstoppable sadness.
Because of the misunderstandings over the past ten years, because she didn’t know that over these years, he was actually watching her from not too far away, yet she knew nothing.
"Waa..."
Jian Liangtong suddenly crouched down, covering her face with her hands, crying so hard she couldn’t catch her breath.
Huo Shaojun furrowed his brows tightly, the tension in his expression showing his helplessness.
He looked down at the endlessly crying Jian Liangtong, unable to stop, and his usually cold eyes also softened slightly.
In the room filled with photos of her, Jian Liangtong, tears in her eyes, reached out, gently brushing across each one.
