I don't know how long I waited for his answer, maybe one or two minutes, maybe just a few seconds.

But it felt so long, long enough for my heartbeat to go from fast to slowly returning to normal.

When I heard him say he would marry me, I didn't know what my emotions were like, as if I had let out a breath of relief, yet also feeling deeply disappointed.

It's as if something has changed in the passage of time, but I don't want to face it.

I won't easily give up the youth, time, and my most beautiful years and sincere feelings I have put in.

I went home alone.

Su Yanchi and Chen Ruyu are preparing for their next play.

After a hit drama, many directors are inviting them to collaborate... The popularity of their CP is increasing, and there are more and more CP fans.

Su Yanchi and Chen Ruyu are under the same company, and their popularity is welcomed by the company.

For some reason, I suddenly felt exhausted after going out.

So I quickly took a shower and fell asleep as soon as I lay down on the bed.

Without setting an alarm, I slept until I woke up naturally.

After waking up, I habitually reached out to the side of the pillow and searched for my phone. I was startled when the screen lit up.

There were more than twenty missed calls from Su Yanchi, as well as various push notifications.

I didn't have time to look at those notifications, so I quickly sat up and called Su Yanchi back.

After a few rings, a mechanical female voice came from the other end of the phone.

I felt a bit panicked. Su Yanchi had made so many calls. I was afraid that something urgent had happened to him, so I quickly made several more calls back, but none of them were answered.

I put down my phone and sat on the bed blankly. I comforted myself in my heart that Su Yanchi should be busy with work, so that's why he couldn't answer the phone. He must be fine.

While I was sitting on the bed lost in my thoughts, a phone call came in on my phone. I quickly picked it up and saw that it was Su Yanchi's assistant, Ajing.

I answered, "Ajing? Did something happen to Su... Yanchi?"

I didn't finish my sentence before Ajing interrupted me, sounding a bit strange. "Sis, just take a look at Weibo first. Ge Chi performed at the show."

At first, I was stunned when I heard this, and my brain seemed to still be groggy from the long sleep just now.

But quickly, I realized. I let out a sigh of relief first.

Su Yanchi was still able to film normally, which meant he was fine.

Thinking of this, my nervousness eased, and I replied to Ajing, "Okay."

I opened Weibo, and the top trending search item was "#SuYanchiHasAGirlfriend," followed by a prominent "break" symbol.

The next one was "#SuYanchiChenRuyu."

And the next was "#FishInThePoolBe."

I stared at these three search items for a while before taking a deep breath and clicking on the first one.

【#SuYanchiHasAGirlfriend broke! Su Yanchi does have a girlfriend! It was his birthday yesterday, and his girlfriend came to the company to celebrate with him! And at the birthday party, his girlfriend even proposed!】

This was the original Weibo post. The blogger must be a paparazzo, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to know so much.

When I saw the words "proposed," I was dumbfounded again for a while. When I snapped out of it, I unconsciously clicked on the comment section of this Weibo post.

【What?! Su Yanchi has a girlfriend?! No one in my family knows about this, my Fish in the Pool is confirmed! (sobbing in despair!)】

"CP confirmed, sobbing +1."

【Sobbing+.】

【Sisters, don't panic yet! Hasn't anyone noticed the girlfriend's proposal?】

【Reply to the above comment: Me me me! I noticed! I was just thinking, is it because Fish in the Pool CP is too popular and she felt threatened, so she proposed?】

【This is too petty. Didn't Su Yanchi always say that Chen Ruyu is his most important partner, the best colleague? Before, they were just playing along, but now it seems like she's giving his girlfriend a sense of security. However, this sister even proposed, completely disregarding Su Yanchi's career.】

【Reply to the above comment: This sister definitely doesn't care about Ge Chi's career. Before, when Ge Chi wasn't popular, she was dissatisfied with his poverty and broke up with him to chase after a rich man. But now that Ge Chi is popular, she's desperately trying to come back, even resorting to a proposal.】

【Damn it! Is what the commenter said true? This woman is too materialistic and scheming!】
