At this moment, Qi Lele, now much more composed, rested her chin on her hand and looked at Merlin with a melancholy gaze: "I feel that Merlin wasn't very happy during those years. He always seemed preoccupied, especially during his internship year, when he was like a completely different person..."

The relaxed atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.

Her words instantly tore Shu Xiangyu's heart apart. She remembered that she had proposed breaking up with Momo that year, and they had been separated for more than four years.

The situation at that time was filled with despair and bitterness, becoming a permanent wound in their hearts. Even after so much time has passed, it is still so memorable to think about it now.

"Those are all in the past..."

Schimerlin smiled calmly, seemingly relieved.

However, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that Yu Bao's expression had turned sad, so she quietly took her hand under the table, wanting to comfort her.

Shu Xiangyu's eyes glistened with tears as she watched her return to her side after enduring so much suffering and hardship. This was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune, but unfortunately, it could not change that period of time.

"Merlin, what happened to you during those years?"

Shen Ji had heard Lele mention it before, but he couldn't guess what bad things had happened to her, and it remains a mystery to this day.

Fu Ying chimed in, "That's right, I often saw you lost in thought back then."

She hadn't expected that they had all seen through her thoughts back then, but none of them asked any questions, offering her the greatest comfort and support.

"Let's not talk about those unhappy things anymore. Come on, I'll toast you... May all your wishes come true and may you be in good health."

Schimerling didn't want to dwell on the past, so he raised his glass in a toast to them.

The other three understood her thoughts and noticed Shu Xiangyu's unusual behavior, so they quickly changed the subject, raised their glasses together, and offered her their sincere blessings as well.

At the end of the meal, the five of them took a group photo and agreed to meet again next time.

Before going to sleep, Shu Xiangyu nestled in Momo's arms, still feeling somewhat down.

“Yu Bao, those things happened so many years ago, don’t take them to heart. I don’t care about them anymore.”

Shermling gently comforted her. Even though recalling the past was still extremely painful, since it was already a done deal and they had both changed, there was no point in clinging to it any longer.

"Wood, can you tell me in detail about what happened back then?"

Even with her comfort, she still couldn't easily let go of the past.

"Do you really want to hear it?"

"Yes, I want to hear it. I want to know everything about you."

"That's a long story..."

"It's okay, take your time, I have plenty of time."

"After I'm done talking, you can tell me about your story too..."

"Okay, I will definitely answer all your questions to the best of my ability."

"So, where should we begin...?"

A picture of an embrace suddenly flashed into Shu Xiangyu's mind: "Let's start from when you and Yu Qingtong were pretending to be in love."

Schimerlin kissed her forehead, smiling gently, "Okay, let's start from that time..."

After many twists and turns, the cause-and-effect relationship became extremely complex, even influencing the later lives of the two individuals...

After Xi Molin recovered from his injury, he reluctantly returned to the detachment, while Shu Xiangyu remained active on the screen and stage, occasionally posting on Weibo.

Her fans and those who ship her with her often look for clues about her love life in her social media posts and photos.

The most common items are the ring on the right middle finger and the brooch on the chest, but no brand has claimed them.

Looking closely at the enlarged photo, the style is quite ordinary. She wears it almost all the time except for special occasions, which shows how important it is to her and how much she likes it.

Later, Xi Molin traveled alone to Guo Tao and Xiao Jun's hometown, visited the martyrs' cemetery to see them, and learned that Guo Tao's wife was preparing to give birth to the child, wanting to continue that hope for the future...

When she returned to the brigade, she began to constantly adjust the training plan, making it increasingly strict, determined to improve everyone's skills to a high standard, and also tried her best to optimize counter-terrorism and jungle warfare.

Despite the soldiers' complaints, she did not want any more casualties to occur in the detachment.

Their lives apart gradually became regular and mundane, but whenever one of them had free time, they would try their best to see the other and cherish the hard-won time.

But sometimes there are arguments.

In late autumn, Shu Xiangyu, who hadn't been involved in any scandals for a long time, was suddenly rumored to be dating someone. This time, it wasn't a male celebrity, but rather the exceptionally cool and sophisticated female celebrity Wen Jing.

Schimerlin now has a lot of entertainment and video apps installed on her phone, and a quick search of her name will reveal a lot of information about her.

Sure enough, a striking trending topic soon caught my eye.

It was past 8 p.m. when Shu Xiangyu, who was in Haishi, was having dinner with her friends when her phone suddenly rang. She had set a special ringtone so she knew who was calling without even looking.

"Sorry, I'll take a call."

She hurriedly left the private room and pressed the answer button.

"Wood, are you done with your work?"

"Who is this Wen Jing?"

A cold, questioning voice came from behind him. Shu Xiangyu rubbed his forehead, frowned, and explained in a low voice, "She's just an actress in the same group. I have nothing to do with her. It's all just nonsense written by those reporters."

"If it's not related, then why did she hug you... and even give you a princess carry?"

Schimerling felt a pang of bitterness and unease as he recalled that scene.

"That was because other people suddenly started cheering, and before I could react, she... picked me up."

She became more and more guilty as she spoke. I didn't realize it before, but now I know how jealous she is.

"She clearly likes you a lot."

"How can it be…"

Schimerlin said coldly, "I have eyes, I can see it."

Then he hung up the phone.

When Shu Xiangyu tried to explain to her again and called back, the phone was already switched off.

That silly blockhead is really going to kill her!

She returned to the table, made up an excuse, and hurriedly left.

Even though she had an event to attend the next day, she didn't care and rushed to the airport overnight, arriving in Chengdu close to 3 a.m.

She hitched a ride back to her small home in Jiangyan, but no one answered her phone, even though it was on.

She hurriedly opened the door and went inside. She could smell a faint scent of alcohol in the air. Luckily, the woman was really home, otherwise she was afraid she wouldn't be able to see her when she rushed over.

The room was quiet. She didn't turn on the lights, but with the dim light from outside, she changed her shoes, took off her coat, and quietly went outside the bedroom.

She gently turned the doorknob, opened the door, and leaned out to see the person sleeping soundly on the bed.

My anxious heart immediately felt relieved.

After quickly washing up in the bathroom, she quietly went into the bedroom and lay down peacefully.

Just as she lifted the corner of the blanket, preparing to move to the side, Momo, whom she thought was asleep in the blanket, suddenly wrapped her arm around her and easily pulled her into her arms.

She was so frightened that she gasped out and her heart raced.

"Wood, are you... not asleep?"

Her captivating voice and unique fragrance made it impossible for Xi Molin, already intoxicated, to extinguish his burning desire.

He half-pressed her down and kissed her.

Not long after, Shu Xiangyu's clothes were thrown out.
