Lu Chuan chuckled as he pulled Shen Yicheng into the private room by his arm. He said enthusiastically," Ah Cheng, you're here. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Come over quickly. Xiaoyi is here too."

"Tang Yi?" Shen Yicheng knew that, but he still asked calmly,"Is she…what I think she is?" 

Her acting skills were really 666, comparable to an actor who had learned acting.

He had just sent her home, sat alone in the car and felt sad for more than twenty minutes, followed her quietly all the way, and even hid at the door to eavesdrop on the conversation inside. Now, he was pretending that he did not know anything.

Moreover, Lu Chuan had called her Xiaoyi, not Tang Yi...

Hehe, as expected, men were especially good at flirting when they were mature.

"Uh…it's her." Lu Chuan laughed evilly and turned to look at Shen Yicheng meaningfully." Your ex-girlfriend."

“……”

Shen Yicheng lowered his eyes and was silent for two seconds before he continued to follow Lu Chuan to his seat.

On this long journey, many people greeted Shen Yicheng.

"President Shen, you're here too. Nice to meet you."

"Yes, yes. I was at President Shen's birthday party a while ago."

" Don't keep calling me President Shen. No one has any background outside of school at today's gathering. This is just a reunion after a long time."

"Yes, yes, yes. We're just classmates. We don't have a noble status."

“……”

Tang Yi, who was sitting in the corner, was a little annoyed by the noisy discussion.

She loved this kind of event the most in her life. Moreover, it was a one-man show where she could hang out with all kinds of people. However, with Shen Yicheng in the room, Tang Yi lost most of her mood.

He watched as the group of people chatted and laughed with Shen Yicheng, saying that they were going to have fun. They did not have a prominent status here, but they were still wary of Shen Yicheng when they spoke. After all, their status was there.

Shen Yicheng sat down when Tang Yitan said that for the third time.

He crossed his legs and leaned on the sofa. The red wine in his glass swirled as his calm gaze locked onto Tang Yi's face. The corners of his mouth curled up into a gentle arc with interest.

At the same time, when Shen Yicheng sat down, Tang Yi's gaze moved up from his feet. A pair of long and straight legs were wrapped in the black suit pants. Half of her fair and shiny flesh was exposed at the ankles. There was also a tattoo on it, but only half of it was exposed. Tang Yi was still unable to recognize what it was because of the brightness.

He looked up and saw a button missing from the right sleeve of his black suit jacket. The jacket was open, and inside was a white shirt. It was clean as if it was dyed by the moonlight. The tie was gray and neatly worn. If Tang Yi remembered correctly, this tie was the present she gave him for his 18th birthday. She didn't expect him to still be wearing it.

Tang Yi's heart ached a little because of this tie.

She subconsciously bit her lip, picked up a glass of beer on the table, raised her head, and gulped it down.

Tang Yi wasn't the only one who felt bad. Shen Yicheng felt the same way. Especially when he saw Tang Yi drinking so recklessly, he didn't have the dignity to stop her.

However, Shen Yicheng didn't regret changing his tie in the car. He really wanted Tang Yi to remember their past. He wanted her to feel so bad and regret. She had to accept today's mess.

"Aiyo, my treasure, don't drink like this. Something will happen." Lu Chuan hurriedly ran over and snatched the wine from Tang Yi's hand.

Tang Yi was a little tipsy." It's okay. Lu Chuan, just let me drink. You know how much I can hold my liquor. This is nothing."

Lu Chuan panicked and looked at Shen Yicheng in a panic. Seeing him calmly sipping the red wine in his hand, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

These two were too pretentious. Sooner or later, they would court death in this nameless love.

"Yes, Brother Lu." Someone jeered," Everyone knows how much Tang Yi can hold her liquor. Back in school, she could drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk. It's just a bottle of beer, and it's not too strong. Don't worry, let Tang Yi drink to her heart's content."

"I agree!"

"Me, me, me too! We've all seen Tang Yi's alcohol tolerance."

Lu Chuan was speechless.

In a fit of anger, Lu Chuan threw Tang Yi aside and walked to the side to drink.

He didn't care anymore. He could do whatever he wanted. After all, she wouldn't be his wife in the future.

Someone suddenly stood up and said into the microphone," Everyone is happy today. It's rare for us to gather together. Why don't Student Shen sing a song for us? When he was in school, he was both a top student and a Masked King."

Immediately, someone echoed.

"Yeah, yeah, Masked King, sing a song."

" Oh, I'm so happy to hear the King of Masked Songs sing in my lifetime."

"Masked King, you should sing 'Need Someone to Accompany', the song that you often sang in high school. You sing this song even better than the original singer."

"No, no, no. I think the Masked King is still best at Fairy Tales."

“……”

For some reason, when she heard these people mention Shen Yicheng's title of " Masked King," Tang Yi felt like laughing.

Back then, when she was pursuing Shen Yicheng, she sang " I Need Someone to Accompany me."

But…why didn't anyone mention the reason why Shen Yicheng broke up with her? Weren't they the most curious about this big gossip?

Tang Yi quietly walked over to Lu Chuan's side. She clinked her glass with Lu Chuan's glass and asked," President Chuan, I'm curious. Why didn't these people ask me why I broke up with Shen Yicheng?" Instead, you act like you don't know that we were in a relationship."

Lu Chuan looked at Tang Yi calmly and said casually,"Because I told these people not to mention what happened between you and Ah-Cheng." 

“……”

Tang Yi didn't know what she was feeling. She gave Lu Chuan a thumbs up and said," President Chuan, you know the big picture. You're awesome."

Lu Chuan's lips twitched. Just as he was about to say something, Shen Yicheng stood up. When he was walking out of the sofa, he felt that Lu Chuan was blocking the way, so he kicked him and walked right past Lu Chuan's legs.

"Alright, I'll do as you requested." Shen Yicheng said.

"Oh-Masked King is domineering!"

"What is the Masked King singing?"

"Foreshadowing."

" I've heard this song before. It's Xue Zhiqian's. His songs are usually very difficult to control. I believe that our Masked King can sing his style."

Shen Yicheng turned his back and sat on the stage. His long and smooth fingers held the microphone gently. As he waited for the prelude, his feet on the edge of the seat followed the rhythm.

As the three blue dots on the screen ended, Shen Yicheng started singing along with the accompaniment.

“……”

[Retreat without regard for your own safety

Who is only for the aftertaste of feelings

Who hasn't sung the song of a small stream flowing forever?

And finally become humble

I've seen so much love change

Will you still laugh at his embarrassment?

……】

Tang Yi sat alone in the corner, staring at Shen Yicheng's back in a daze. Lu Chuan walked over when he saw her.

"I didn't expect Ah-Cheng to sing so well," he said with a laugh.

"Yes, it's quite nice." Tang Yi really felt that her singing was good.

His voice was completely different from when he was a teenager.

Lu Chuan: " Sometimes, I always feel that the three of us have changed. Our personalities and appearances have changed a lot. But now, it seems that nothing has changed. It's always been what I think."

Tang Yi,[It's changed. Everyone has changed.]

"Yeah."

At this moment, Shen Yicheng's song was over, and all sorts of praises came from every corner of the room.

Lu Chuan smiled. He looked at Tang Yi's side profile and pursed his lips. He thought of something and couldn't help but blush. He coughed dryly and said," Do you want to participate in a variety show?"

"Hmm?" Tang Yi said," I've said it before. I won't be doing any work for the second half of the year. I'm just waiting to retire from the entertainment industry and rest."

Lu Chuan: " You're only 27 years old. Your life has just begun. You still have a lot of money to earn. How can you quit the entertainment industry?" Tang Yi, your idea is too wrong."

"President Chuan, don't try to persuade me. I've already made up my mind."

"Then you can quit after you've participated in this variety show I'm working on. You can earn some money."

"..." Tang Yi didn't answer and lowered her head.

Seeing Tang Yi like this, Lu Chuan sighed. He patted Tang Yi's shoulder and said," Let's not talk anymore. Come, let's drink. We won't go home until we're drunk."

"Forget about your troubles. Cheers!"

By the time the party ended, it was already half-past twelve.

Lu Chuan and Tang Yi were both drunk and unconscious. The other people in the room helped each other out in twos and threes. Shen Yicheng's eyes were locked on Tang Yi, who was holding Lu Chuan.
