Chapter 59
After dinner, Lu Jinnian changed the bedsheets before preparing to return to his hostel .
Qiao Anhao reached forward to grab his hand .
Thinking that she was afraid, Lu Jinnian remained silent . Sitting in front of his computer, he turned it on .
Qiao Anhao lay on the bed playing with her phone .
The apartment was silent besides the buzzing emitted by the computer .
Time flew and it was 11 pm in the blink of an eye . Lu Jinnian laid out a mattress and laid down on the floor, while Qiao Anhao occupied the bed . The blanket covering her had a light fragrance, the exact same scent that Lu Jinnian carried . Subconsciously, the scent flustered her, and her heart beat rapidly .
That night was a quiet night . They looked into the darkness, enjoying the silence as their thoughts ran . Listening to each other’s breathing, they gradually sunk into a deep sleep .
Halfway through the night, it started to pour in Hangzhou . Thunder struck and lighting flashed, but the ferocious weather did nothing to dampen Qiao Anhao’s spirits . She remained asleep with a hint of a smile .
The next day, Qiao Anhao went to apply for a temporary ID . Lu Jinnian helped her buy a plane ticket and sent her to the airport personally .
Before she had entered the customs, Lu Jinnian took out his wallet, forcing a few hundred dollar bills into her hand . Despite usually speaking little, he had told her in a whispered tone to take care of herself and to call him once she reached Jingcheng .
At that time, they were getting increasingly closer as though a relationship would blossom anytime soon .
But somehow, from that day onwards, everything changed drastically .
The first thing Qiao Anhao did after returning to Jingcheng was to make a new ID and the minute she received it, she booked a ticket to Shanghai . Dragging Qiao Anxia to Hangzhou, she called Lu Jinnian as usual .

Lu Jinnian said that he was filming at Hengdian and wasn’t able to rush over .
She said that she could visit him at Hengdian .
He told her that the show was private and outsiders weren’t allowed .
At that time, she didn’t think much, believing that he was indeed busy . She was just a little disappointed and so left Hangzhou after only two days .
One month later, she visited Hangzhou again, but Lu Jinnian said he was in Xi An filming .
After another half a month, she went to Hangzhou yet again and Lu Jinnian used the same filming excuse to reject her once more .
Lu Jinnian was getting increasingly popular at that time after doing well in a few memorable roles .
Some of Qiao Anhao’s hostel mates were even starting to fantasize about him .
Females were naturally sensitive species and Qiao Anhao had already sensed that Lu Jinnian was avoiding her, but she had no idea why .
She thought that it was probably her love that was causing her random thoughts .
Hence, after learning that he had someone he liked, she used a good friend’s tone to ask him about it .
