The next day when Yan Hong woke up at nine o'clock in the morning, the warm sunlight came in through the unclosed window, Yan Hong turned her head to the side, hugged Mu Yuyao who was sleeping soundly, and gently curled the corners of her lips, as if Is dreaming a sweet dream.

Yan Hong got off the bed lightly, without waking Mu Yuyao up, she went out after tidying up.She will face many reporters and cameras this afternoon, and she must take good care of herself to present everyone in her best condition.

Zou Yuan made a few phone calls when we were in the beauty salon, asking Yan Hong if he was mentally prepared. Yan Hong understood what Zou Yuan meant. If he really did what Zou Yuan said, it meant The distance that she and Mu Yuyao finally got close to will be pulled further away again.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Hong left the dressing room and drove to the gymnasium in the city center. When he came to the small private room inside the gymnasium, Zou Yuan was already sitting on the sofa, and it seemed that he had been waiting for a while.

"Zou Yuan." Yan Hong walked over and sat opposite Zou Yuan.

"En." Zou Yuan nodded in response, and she pushed a piece of white paper that was originally placed on the coffee table with densely printed black characters in front of Yan Hong, "We will clear what you want to say and some questions to the reporters. Write it clearly on it, take a look, and ask me if you have any doubts."

"Okay." Yan Hong picked up the paper. She has memorized a lot of this kind of manuscripts, and she has been interviewed by reporters many times since her debut. Before the interview, her agent gave her a prepared manuscript and asked her Talk about the content in the manuscript closely.

On the way to read the manuscript, the phone rang suddenly.

Yan Hong took out her mobile phone and glanced at the screen, her expression instantly became uncomfortable, she raised her eyes and glanced at Zou Yuan opposite, Zou Yuan was looking at something with an IPAD, her expression focused.

When the bell rang for the second time, Yan Hong, who had originally planned to pretend that he hadn't heard the ringtone, became more and more restless.

"Aren't you answering the phone?" Zou Yuan asked.

"Oh, I didn't hear it just now." Yan Hong laughed awkwardly, she put down the manuscript in her hand and stood up, "Sorry, I'll go out and answer the phone."

"Where did you go? Why didn't you see anyone early in the morning?" Just as she picked up the phone, Mu Yuyao's faint voice rang out. She spoke in an unhurried manner, with a hint of tenderness, which made Yan Hong's heart warm. warm.

After hearing this voice, Yan Hong, who had been restless in her heart for some reason, suddenly calmed down. She exhaled and smiled with the corners of her mouth: "I'm at work. I saw that you slept soundly in the morning, so there is no noise. wake you up."

"Don't you have to rest for a few days before starting work?"

"This is just a temporary arrangement, and it will end soon." Speaking of this, Yan Hong suddenly changed the subject, "By the way, did you have a good lunch at noon? I told you many times yesterday, don't take advantage of it." As long as I'm not around, you'll go on a hunger strike again." Yan Hong's tone carried a hint of warning, Mu Yuyao was very weak during her stay in the hospital, and often used her headache as an excuse to not want to eat.

"Of course, my wife and lord have already spoken, so how dare you disobey as a husband?" Mu Yuyao replied with a smile, with a hint of teasing.

Yan Hong blushed: "What nonsense are you talking about! I'm not your wife!"

"Then what are you mine? Lady?"

"I'm yours..." Yan Hong held back a shy red face and thought for a long time, then subconsciously popped out a few words, "You Le Mei."

"Pfft——" Mu Yuyao on the other side of the phone burst out laughing, and the crisp laughter sounded like a three-dimensional stereo sound in Yan Hong's ears, "Then my You Le Mei, I can drink you now drop?"

Hearing that the redness on Yan Yanhong's face quickly spread to the base of her ears, she turned around awkwardly and leaned against the railing, with the breeze blowing her long hair, and finally she cursed half angrily: "You rascal!"

"Why did I become a hooligan?" Mu Yuyao pretended to be innocent, and the effect of the 3D sound surrounded Yan Hong's ears.

"You actually said that just now!"

"Did I say something?" Yan Hong could even imagine Mu Yuyao's innocent expression with blinking eyes when she said these wronged and innocent words.

"You said..." Yan Hong bit her lip for a long time and still couldn't say that suggestive sentence, but in the next second she suddenly thought of something.

Yan Hong took down his phone suspiciously and looked at it.

This is her mobile phone, yes!Why did Mu Yuyao's voice sound so three-dimensional just now? Her mobile phone is not yet so high-tech.

"What's going on..." Yan Hong muttered to herself, just as she was about to put the phone back to her ear, suddenly a hand reached out from the side and put an arm around her waist.

Turning to face Mu Yuyao's delicate face.

Caught off guard, Yan Hong was so frightened that she almost dropped her phone on the ground. She quickly took a step back and said in surprise, "Why did you come here without even saying hello? You scared me to death!"

Mu Yuyao saw Yan Hong's reaction in her eyes, she hung up the phone that was still on the phone in her hand calmly, put the phone in her pocket, and put her other hand around Yan Hong, the posture of the two of them It seemed very intimate at this time.

"Your manager called me to come. Seeing your reaction... don't you want me to come?"

"Ah! No!" The latter sentence made Yan Hong hurriedly explain, "I was just a little surprised that you suddenly appeared here, and Zou Yuan would call you to come over." What surprised Yan Hong even more was that Zou Yuan called Mu Yuyao in private without her knowing, which made Yan Hong a little panicked.

"She called me this morning and told me that you have a very important event this afternoon and told me to attend it." Mu Yuyao's expression was calm when she spoke. Yan Hong couldn't figure out what she was thinking, but she was actually very scared. Mu Yuyao had already guessed the content of this press conference, but maybe the smart Mu Yuyao had already guessed the general idea, but she didn't pierce the layer of paper.

At this time, the door of the private room was opened, and Zou Yuan leaned against the door with his chest crossed and looked at the two loving people in front of him: "The press conference is about to start, now you can take your places, Mr. Mu, I will let Xiao Yang take the lead." Go to your seat." Saying that, Zou Yuan waved to the inside of the box, and a girl with a ponytail immediately ran out.

"Mr. Mu, I'll take you there." The girl didn't seem to see Mu Yuyao and Yan Hong's intimate actions, she trotted to Mu Yuyao and smiled obsequiously. Although Mu Yuyao is not as brilliant as it used to be, but She still has a high status in the circle, and the things she has accumulated for many years are not gone, such as feelings.

Mu Yuyao nodded, let go of Yan Hong reluctantly, and whispered in her ear, "I'll wait for you here when the meeting is over."

"Okay." Yan Hong smiled and squeezed Mu Yuyao's hand.

After Mu Yuyao walked away, Yan Hong's smiling face collapsed little by little. She was in a bad mood now. Although she already had a vague answer in her heart, she was still a little hesitant. Once she said it, she will take more substantive actions to prove what she said today.

To be precise, it was indeed Zou Yuan's presumptuous assertion this time that made Yan Hong even more entangled and confused.

"Why did you ask her to come?" Yan Hong looked Zou Yuan straight in the eyes without extra politeness and politeness, and asked directly.

Zou Yuan still maintained the leisurely posture of leaning against the door, she lightly pursed her thin lips, scrutinized Yan Hong's reaction for a long time before slowly saying: "I just did what a manager should do. .”

"You will only aggravate my troubles." Yan Hong scratched his hair irritably and said angrily.She walked into the box, picked up the manuscript on the coffee table and read it again, and finally crumpled the manuscript impatiently and threw it on the sofa.

Zou Yuan followed Yan Hong into the box and looked at her quietly: "I have been a manager for so long, and this is not the first time I have seen you in this situation, so I understand your thoughts very well, I only do this I just want to help you make a decisive decision, otherwise you will become a topic of gossip after dinner if you have a little movement in the future."

Yan Hong turned to look at Zou Yuan, although he was very annoyed that Zou Yuan didn't ask her opinion for selfishness, but because Zou Yuan was her manager, everything he did was for her own good, so he had to swallow his heart the fire.

"Then what do you think I should do?"

Zou Yuan shrugged: "Either admit the matter between you and Mu Yuyao directly and accept everyone's scolding, or find an excuse to say that Mu Yuyao is wishful thinking."

"Only these two options?" In fact, Yan Hong had been thinking about the third option before this. She was sure that she wanted to take this opportunity to disclose her relationship with Mu Yuyao, but she couldn't let it go. A career that has finally risen.

Or it can be said to be a very private idea, Yan Hong thought about shifting all the responsibility to Yang Yuchuan, even though she knew that Yang Yuchuan was just an innocent passerby.

Obviously Zou Yuan guessed Yan Hong's thoughts: "Yan Hong, you have to know that there is no such thing as the best of both worlds, and it is impossible to have both bear's paw and shark's fin. You have been hiding for long enough during this time, you can't I am always avoiding everyone's problems, you choose one of the two options I mentioned just now, that is the best for you, and escaping cannot solve the problem."

During the stalemate, there was a knock on the box door.

A boy wearing a peaked cap poked his head in: "Sister Yuan, you can get ready to go on stage."

It has been a long time since Yan Hong was so nervous. All the reporters in the audience opened their eyes wide and stared at her for a moment. The main character slowly walked onto the stage. The flashlight has never been off, as if they were afraid of missing the slightest bit of Yan Hong's expression. .

The venue for this temporary application was not large, and the reporters were all sitting on the small stools under the stage in a row, and Yan Hong couldn't find Mu Yuyao for a while.

She should be here, right?

Yan Hong's absent-minded appearance embarrassed an employee selected by Zou Yuan as the host. She smiled again and repeated what she had just said, but this time she raised the volume: "Miss Yan, do you have anything to say now? ?”

"Ah?" Yan Hong immediately came to her senses, she still had the disappointment on her face that she hadn't seen Mu Yuyao's figure. Looking at her, there was an inexplicable peace of mind in his heart.

"I... I'm not very good at talking, so I just omitted those official words. This time I delayed everyone's rest time and called everyone here, but I just wanted to talk about what you want to know." Yan Hong was a little dazzled by the flashing light, she blinked, and subconsciously clenched the hand that was holding the hem of her clothes.

Out of the corner of her eye, Yan Hong could see Zou Yuan standing not far behind the scenes looking at her intently. She was afraid that she was wondering which solution she would choose.

Yan Hong recalled the content of the manuscript Zou Yuan gave her again in his mind. There were two ways of speaking in it, which naturally corresponded to the two choices given by Zou Yuan.

As expected of Zou Yuan, an outsider who has only a half-knowledge of the whole story can still fabricate a perfect answer mixed with facts and lies.

At this time, the venue was quiet, and everyone was waiting for Yan Hong's next news.

Yan Hong took a deep breath, stood up from her seat and walked slowly to the front of the stage. She looked around at the group of reporters who were holding their breaths waiting for her to break the news.

"Mu Yuyao and I...that is, the former general manager of Company K, are indeed in a relationship as you have guessed, and we are still in love."

As soon as this remark came out, boos immediately aroused from the audience.

Yan Hong's words were really beyond people's expectations. Following the routine of other artists, Yan Hong should have denied her relationship with Mu Yuyao without hesitation.What's more, because of the marriage contract between Mu Yuyao and Yang Yuchuan, if she admits it, it will be like pushing herself to the cusp of the storm.

"Since you and Miss Mu Yuyao are lovers, why did Miss Mu Yuyao choose to get married?"

"When did you start?"

"Then Miss Mu Yuyao and Mr. Yang Yuchuan are just playing around, or are they really planning to get married?"

"..."

The reporters in the audience immediately asked all kinds of sharp questions like a series of cannonballs.

"Can you be quiet for a while?" When the noise in the audience was about the same, Yan Hong, who had been standing silent on the stage, spoke out. The clear voice covered everyone's noise through the speaker, and everyone closed their eyes tacitly. mouth.

The arena fell silent again.

"There are too many of you, I can't answer your questions one by one." Yan Hong said calmly, regardless of her celebrity status, she bent down and sat on the steps very close to the reporters, like It is a dialogue between friends, "I did not hold this press conference to clarify anything, but to let those who attack us without knowing the truth know the whole story."

After a moment of silence, Yan Hong continued.

"Everyone is most concerned about the relationship between me, Mu Yuyao and Yang Yuchuan. Just now a lady asked me when Mu Yuyao and I started. In fact, we have known each other since college. Although I tried my best to hide , but many people must know that my parents were hurt a lot because of the car accident, and it was Mu Yuyao, a good friend, who comforted me during the darkest time of my life."

"I think it's not uncommon to fall in love with the same sex in this day and age, so at that time, I was a cowardly person, and after receiving a lot of help from Mu Yuyao, I joined the huge team that I had only heard of before without hesitation."

"Then you took the initiative to show affection to Miss Mu Yuyao?" a reporter suggested.

"No." Yan Hong shook his head, and said immediately, "I've never shown any kindness to her. After going through a lot of self-struggle, I skipped the confession and overtures, and directly pursued her indiscriminately. You may have heard this matter mentioned by my classmates who used to be at the same school, but the truth is that I am pursuing her."

"Did Miss Mu Yuyao agree?"

"Of course not." Yan Hong seemed to be recalling a certain scene back then, she smiled slightly, and looked at the questioning reporter in front of her with erratic eyes, "If she had promised me early in the morning, then today I would not Here it is. She rejected me so badly that she couldn't even be friends, and we broke up for five years. During these five years, we met countless times because of work, but rarely spoke."

"Then how did you get in touch?"

"Later...she needed my help on a very important matter. When she asked for my help, I put forward a condition-that is, to associate with me. It's like a sentence in a book that I once read In other words, we are not born homosexual. We just happen to fall in love with people of the same gender as us. I think Mu Yuyao has also experienced the same struggle as me. Not everyone can accept that they like the same sex casually. fact."

Another reporter smiled and said, "You mean, Miss Mu Yuyao also likes you?"

"That's natural, otherwise I wouldn't be standing here and saying something." Yan Hong's face was filled with confidence. Hong thought that she would never be able to lift her head up in front of the camera because of this incident in her entire life.

"The marriage contract between Mu Yuyao and Mr. Yang Yuchuan was just a misunderstanding. They are actually very good friends in private. Everyone must know about the former K company chairman Mu Yuandong. It was rumored a while ago. The marriage contract was Mu Yuandong It was arranged for Mu Yuyao, at that time they just obeyed Mu Yuandong's wishes and followed his words, so after Mu Yuandong went to prison, they would dissolve the engagement so quickly."

"..."

After these words were uttered, the big stone in Yan Hong's heart that was weighing on her to the point of suffocation finally fell to the ground. She couldn't control whether everyone believed what she said, but since she had made a decision, she had to go on unswervingly.No matter what everyone says about her, Yan Hong will no longer have to live in a relationship that is hidden all day long for fear of being discovered.

After scanning the venue several times, he still couldn't find Mu Yuyao. Finally, Yan Hong fixed his gaze on the young man in the center of the venue who was carrying a video camera.

"I don't know where you are now, but I believe you will be able to see this scene." Yan Hong's voice was calm and powerful, and she said word by word, "From the very beginning, I have clearly understood the relationship between us. The gap, the many struggles are not because I don’t like it, but because I’m afraid that the gap is too big and I can’t get close. I’m very inferior. I think I can only live in your shadow when we’re together. In fact, I’m wrong. Love There is no tall and short, poor and rich, or ugly and beautiful, and I thank you for making me understand." "Finally... I want to say, I love you..."
