Chapter 64
Qiao Anhao stared at the contract that plagued her mind . In that moment, all she felt was endless humiliation .
Seeing that Qiao Anhao was hesitant, Lu Jinnian couldn’t help but furrow his brows . His aura was cold to begin with, so with furrowed brows, he emitted an intensely icy aura . As for the tone of his voice, it was arctic .
“What? Are you not content with the remunerations for this product endorsement?”
Hearing the sound of Lu Jinnian’s voice, Qiao Anhao’s hand slightly shook as she held the pen . Then, without a word, she slowly signed her name .
A single slip may cause everlasting sorrow . The excuse she gave after climbing into Lu Jinnian’s bed the first time now continued to cause her endless humiliation . At that time, she should have never asked for a part in ‘To the End of Time’ .
She really wanted to reject signing the contract, but this entire mess was her own doing . There was no excuse for it .
Thirteen years ago, she fell in love with him . Because she was young and shy, she didn’t dare confess her love .
Thirteen years later, she was still in love with him . She loved him so much she tried her hardest to conceal it .
The furthest distance on Earth was the distance between them – so close, and yet he didn’t realize that she loved him . She stood before him, and yet she didn’t dare to let him know that she loved him .
Qiao Anhao’s eyes were filled with fog as she lowered her head, trying her hardest to not let her tears fall . Before the last stroke of her signature, the tip of her pen hovered over the contract for a long while . Only when the fog in her eyes dissipated did she place the pen down onto the table and hand Lu Jinnian the contract .

Qiao Anhao’s calm and collected attitude made Lu Jinnian feel rather hot-tempered, as if his insides were set on fire, flames bursting to break free but unable to find an exit .
All of a sudden, Lu Jinnian directed his attention to the giant bear on the bed . His expression instantly ran cold and he said to Qiao Anhao in a heavy tone, “There’s a condition that states that you mustn’t endorse any other products from other cosmetic brands whilst on their project . Otherwise, you’d be legally liable and will have to pay a hefty compensation .
“Let me remind you, you’d better read these clauses well . If you breach the contract, you’ll be the one locked up, you’ll have to pay for compensation, and don’t you even think Huan Ying Entertainment will help you with a single cent!”
When Lu Jinnian finished, he reached out and swiped the contract from Qiao Anhao’s hands . He gave her a stern look and, turning, left .
Perhaps it was Lu Jinnian’s appearance and exit or the cold, but Qiao Anhao felt more exhausted than usual and struggled to fall sleep .
She hugged her giant bear that was taller than she was and lay peacefully in bed . She stared with her eyes wide open straight into the empty abyss of the ceiling for a long while . She vaguely remembered the events that unfolded half a year ago and her feelings after suddenly having to marry Lu Jinnian . . .
