It's like I went from being the little girl in school to being a good student and a good girl.

Xu Duanran took the phone and looked at himself in the photo.

At that time, she didn't know that Xia Xingruo was Zhang Mingyang's girlfriend, and naively believed that the relationship between the two could slowly progress little by little.

But in fact, everything had changed long ago. The bad guys ran away with a smile, and she was the only one who stayed where she was.

After all this time, she still liked this photo, so she kept it as her phone wallpaper.

Just like what the photographer said back then.

"I thought you were a family of three."

It made her happy for a while.

"Aren't you working as a paralegal? That's why you came back." Xu Duanran explained.

"It's a pity, the hair color in the photo is really beautiful."

Golden shawl long hair with coral bleaching at the ends.

Shen Congyi has never seen many people who can control this kind of hair color.

"I'm not saying you don't look good now, you look good in black too!"

She suddenly realized that she seemed to have said the wrong thing, and waved her hands in denial.

"I thought I looked good when I first graduated, so I dyed my hair right after the college entrance examination. It was really special. When we were having dinner, people could recognize me at a glance."

Xu Duanran didn't care about Shen Congyi's words, but instead shared an interesting story about how she just graduated from college.

She said that most of the students in the small town did not dye their hair, and if they dyed their hair, it would be brown or something like that.

Only she was dyed blonde.

"Of course, you have really good taste."

When mentioning gold, Shen Congyi unconsciously thought of someone.

Xia Xingruo.

She also has blonde hair now, but the color is lighter, platinum blonde.

This is also a master who can control strange hair colors.

It was just a normal association at first, but the moment she saw Xu Duanran, Shen Congyi suddenly felt like the hairs on her head were standing on end.

Xia Xingruo's hair was not platinum blond at first, but normal black.

Xu Duanran's hair was not black at first, but a more special golden color.

"We have met several times." This is what Xia Xingruo said.

Shen Congyi suddenly had a bold idea.

Are these two imitating each other a little bit, consciously or unconsciously?

She began to suspect that Xu Duanran's reason for dying his hair back was really as simple as she said, just to be a good paralegal?

The more he thought about it, the more terrifying Shen Congyi felt.

However, these were just conjectures in her mind. Not only could they not be confirmed, they didn't even dare to ask.

Shen Congyi chose to remain silent and continued to talk to Xu Duanran about her hair.

Just as he was talking, the office door was pushed open.

Zhang Mingyang rushed in angrily.

"This is a new manuscript prepared for you. Read it as soon as possible. We will record it as soon as it is finished!"

"Oh, okay, okay."

Shen Congyi quickly took the manuscript, then picked up the pen on the table and started drawing paragraphs.

She thinks she is quite funny too.

I haven't settled my own affairs yet, but I still have time to care about other people's affairs.

This is probably what is called excess self-awareness.

After explaining to Shen Congyi, Zhang Mingyang turned to Xu Duanran and said:

"I should be working overtime tonight. I have already called your Aunt Wang and asked her to come pick you up."

"Well, I'll go back first. You should take a rest."

Xu Duanran stretched out his hand and helped the bad guy tidy up his collar, which was a little messy due to his busy schedule.

He was thinking not to meddle in other people's business, but Shen Congyi, who was reading the manuscript, still couldn't help but look at the two people in front of him.

Normally, she would have thought nothing of their way of getting along.

But after seeing that photo from the past.

Shen Congyi suddenly felt that Xu Duanran probably didn't have this kind of personality in the past.

There's no basis for it, it's just a sixth sense.

After Zhang Mingyang explained the next thing, he hurriedly left the office, leaving them behind again.

This time Shen Congyi was reading the manuscript, and neither of them spoke anymore.

Xu Duanran always went out to answer the phone.

After returning from the door, Xu Duanran packed up the things on the table.

"Sister Shen, I'm leaving first."

"Well, be careful on the road."

Shen Congyi was in a complicated mood.

She felt that Zhang Mingyang should send Xu Duanran home now, maybe this would make her happier.

But in the apartment building not far away, there was a girl waiting alone.

Shen Congyi felt his scalp numb just thinking about it, and he didn't know how Zhang Mingyang persisted.

After saying goodbye, she found that Xu Duanran was not in a hurry to leave, but still stood where he was.

"What's wrong?" Shen Congyi asked with concern.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Duanran, who pondered for a moment, finally spoke.

"Is Xia Xingruo coming this afternoon?"

The question may seem trivial, but the name alone is enough to make Shen Congyi feel like a bolt from the blue.

The corners of her mouth trembled slightly, realizing that this was the question Xu Duanran wanted to ask just now.

What was it like in the past?

Shen Congyi knew that Xia Xingruo was Zhang Mingyang's girlfriend, and Xu Duanran also knew that she knew.

But both of them knew it tacitly.

This is the first time they have spoken out clearly.

Shen Congyi knew there was no need to hide anymore, but still shook his head subconsciously.

She didn't say anything, just shook her head.

Looking at Xu Duanran's eyes, she understood that the girl must have guessed something.

It's useless even if she denies it.

Most people come to questions with answers in mind.

But, does this question really make sense...

While she was waiting for the next chapter, she saw Xu Duanran smiling and waving his hands, saying goodbye to her.

"May......"

Shen Congyi didn't say these words because Xu Duanran had already turned around and left the office.

The office became quiet again, and this time she was the only one left.

Shen Congyi was stunned for a moment, then turned his attention to the manuscript, forcing himself not to think about these things.

Maybe I didn't say anything at the time.

is the best answer.

...

After thoroughly reading the script, Shen Congyi returned to the studio to record the video.

This time it is mainly to explain what Shen Wanli mentioned in the interview.

Why is she unfilial, disrespectful, ignorant, etc.

In that interview, it seemed that she was the bad guy and Shen Wanli was the victim.
To be continued...
