Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chang Jin? Have you gone mad? She was wearing high heels! She was pregnant and he was forcing her to run with him. Then, her fans began to chase after her.
"Brother!"
"Chang Jin!"
Tonight, the area outside the airport was buzzing with activity. Two people were running while a huge crowd of people chased after them. In the noisy environment, one could even hear someone shout, "Don't run, be careful."
"Don't chase! Don't cause an accident!"
A white car door opened and Chang Jin pulled her into the car. The car immediately peeled out. Behind them, Liang Younian, who was shouting to maintain order, roared, "I'm not in the car yet!"
"Is that your manager behind you? You abandoned him just like that?" She turned back and looked at Liang Younian, who looked to be a mess now.
"It's not like he can't find his way eventually..." Chang Jin tilted his head and stared at her. "You promised to treat me to dinner last night."
"Don't sit so near me. I know what you've been like since you were young." She blinked and began to size him up.
He had a broad forehead and thick eyebrows, angular cheekbones, and a small mole under his sexy lips. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing his ruffian smile. She examined the handsome man's buzz cut, black T-shirt, and silver necklace around his neck. He dressed simply and comfortably.
He looked like a 90s star. If he held a cigarette to his mouth, he would look like a gangster.
"Are you going to labor camp?" she deliberately joked.
"It's styled this way for a new show. Do I look handsome?" Chang Jin touched his head.
"Yes, you look handsome."
Chang Jin listened to her emotionless reply. "Your mind is filled with Peng Zezai. You have to be good at discovering different kinds of handsomeness. I'm not inferior to him. Have you considered donating your corneas?"
She felt wronged. She clearly praised him for his handsomeness.
"I dare to donate my corneas to you. Do you dare to accept them?"
"I'm not blind." He leaned lazily against the seat. "Have you eaten the grapes I bought for you? Were they sweet?"
He had gone to the orchard next door during filming and picked them personally under the scorching sun. He had carefully selected every single one of them. Each grape even looked amazing. After all, she was a shallow woman who cared about looks.
"Uh..."
She had not eaten them. In fact, she had distributed the grapes and chestnuts to the employees.
"Little Jia Jia, what are you doing?" Chang Jin stretched out his arm and pressed on the seat on her left. The light in the van was dim. He stared at her. "Huh?"
Why did his expression suddenly change and why was he so close to her?
"When did you get your ear pierced?" She curiously touched the silver earring on his right ear and changed the topic. "It's not mainstream."
"You don't know when I got my ear pierced? Zhao Jia, do you believe that I'll knock out your milk bottle?"
"Violent..."
Why was he... so irritable recently, like a woman on early menopause?
"Your brain really needs to be washed. Other than that stinky man, you don't care about anything anymore..." He snorted coldly and angrily covered his face with his hat.
"No, I didn't... Chang Jin, I lost my memory..." She grabbed his arm aggrievedly, "I'm sorry, I fainted a few days ago. When I woke up, I lost five years worth of memories. I don't even remember my feelings for Peng Zezai. How could I remember when you got your ears pierced?"
Chang Jin grabbed his hat and looked at her suspiciously. "You lost your memory?"
"Yes."
"How did you faint? Where? Why did you lose your memory? is your head injured? Who hit You? Let me take a look at you." He asked a series of questions, with both hands on her head, Zhao Jia was forced to lie down. He put his hands in her hair. "Where does it hurt? Who bullied you? I'll take revenge for you!"
"Don't ruin my hair style. I'm an Internet celebrity now, so I have to pay attention to my image."
"Internet celebrity? You?" Chang Jin twirled a strand of her hair. "Did you dye your hair?"
It was very beautiful. She had dyed her hair this color before. Then, she went overseas and met Peng Zezai. She fell in love with him at first sight and chased after him. People said that when women chased after men, there would always be some distance between them. However, for her, it was like she caught him and married him, but the distance between them remained as wide as the Sahara desert.
When Chang Jin thought of this, he was so angry that she could not help but channel more strength into his fingers.
"You're hurting me..."
His curled fingers straightened, and her soft hair slipped out of his hands. She stroked her hair. "Why are you here and not filming?"
"Of course it's because you wanted to treat me to a meal. In the end, you came back to spend your money on me. I'd like to eat."
'Your plane ticket wasn't more expensive than a meal... You're really something, Chang Jin. As expected of you, you never let go of a good opportunity.'
They were seated in a private room of a restaurant and eating an exquisite dinner, but Zhao Jia was not very hungry. She asked, "Have you contacted my brother?"
"I'm so busy, and he's also busy. How would he have time to get back to me? Actually, after you two decided not to interact with each other for the rest of your life, he wholeheartedly believed that I was on your side. I should be thankful that he didn't beat me to death. How dare I contact him?"
She no longer wanted to remain estranged from her brother. That was not her doing.
