d to this film. Both of them are very responsible in promoting the film. The cool beauty director is having a great time with old friends on set, completely ignoring them.Finally, after the film festi...She was heartbroken and devastated. She never saw Lin Ning again after that. He didn't take the college entrance exam; he went abroad to study, supposedly with his fiancée. Cai Xiaojing completely gave up hope.

Later, after her parents divorced, her elder sister went with their father, while she stayed with her mother and remarried, even changing her name, from given name to surname, completely altering it. It was as if she had no connection to her past anymore.

After that first love, her personality changed a lot. She used to be gentle, lively, and cute, but now you can't find any of those traits.

Later, she heard many things about Lin Ning. She heard about his promiscuity, his fickleness, and also about his cruelty towards women. She chuckled to herself, realizing how foolish she had been. It turned out that she was merely a passing curiosity to him, nothing more.

She slowly forgot about the man.

She dated boyfriends in high school and continued to date throughout college, going through seven or eight of them. She started playing the field, saying it was just for fun. She had the resources to do so.

Handsome, in good shape, intelligent, resourceful, navigating the world is not a problem for them.

That year in her sophomore year, her stepfather's family went bankrupt and he fled after making a donation, leaving her and her mother to face a huge debt. She was heartbroken and had to drop out of school to work and support the family. Though her stepfather ran away, those years were filled with his unwavering presence.

Cai Xiaojing willingly took on this debt. She studied finance and at the time wanted to find a job in a related field. By chance, she saw Lin Ning... At that time, Lin Ning had already become a big star in the entertainment industry. She didn't like watching movies, listening to music, or watching TV dramas. She was almost completely devoid of entertainment. It was by chance that she saw Lin Ning leading a team to promote his new film.

Tsai Hsiao-ching learned that he was the director of An Ning International.

She had already found a pretty good job, but she resolutely turned down the invitation and joined Anning International as an agent.

She was lucky to meet her benefactor, Cheng Anya.

That's why she is who she is today.

From the first artist she took on, she was very successful. All the artists under her at that time became popular, and her own name rose in prominence, gaining increasingly more attention from Cheng Anya. She was specifically tasked with training newcomers, taking on four or five at a time. Once they became successful, she would pass them on to someone else.

Han Bi was also the new person she brought at that time.

Things have been pretty calm about Lin Ning at Anning International. This man is still the same as he was before, a heartthrob, a player. He's known for getting involved with women and then dropping them once he's done. He goes all out, and he's infamous for his affairs with Su Ran, Lin Diyun, Tang Shuwu, Gu the director, and others. He's charming and loved by many, but also hated by some women.

Time was very kind to him. Even in his thirties, he didn't look old at all. He had more grace and aura than the male stars he held up. He was as handsome and cold as ever.

Hearing more about him, Cai Xiaojing felt that her first love in her youth was complete and utter, simply because she hadn't seen enough of the world.

When An Ning International first met him, it was during a meeting with Han Bi to discuss films. He was frivolous and dissolute, which made her disgusted. But deep down in her subconscious, she wondered if he would still remember her from the past.

It's a pity, but his eyes were utterly unfamiliar.

As if seducing a stranger, Cai Xiaoning suddenly felt that after so many years, she had been playing games for this man and was foolishly blinded. It wasn't worth it at all.

He has completely forgotten you. Who are you taking your time and energy to seek revenge on

It's just revenge on my younger, clueless self.

Who hasn't had a youthful period, there's simply no need to seek revenge.

Heartbreak happens every day, but without him, she still lives a carefree life.

From then on, she truly became ordinary. Her heart no longer beat for him, and the memories of the past had become a thing of the past.

She completely understood that she had grown up, and her mindset had changed.

He has matured, yet he remains completely unchanged.

Later, due to work, he and she gradually became acquainted. He was an international director, and she was a manager. It wouldn't hurt her to get close to him, besides, they worked in the same company. They saw each other frequently, whether looking up or down.

So these years, it's just been the friendship we have, occasionally greeting each other but not visiting specially.

Unexpectedly, after bringing warmth, she began to interact with him again.

And this time, what is he playing again

Still a game of curiosity from childhood.

She had moved past it. After so many years in the entertainment industry, navigating the treacherous waters of rivalry and using every means to make her artists successful, she had seen it all. She had experienced a dozen or so relationships, inside and out, leaving her impervious to anything new.

Playing childish tricks again, huh.

Cai Xiaoting sneered, it all depended on who could outplay whom.

Now, he is interested in her, isn't he She wants him to fall completely in love with her and then abandon him. Since he wants to play, she will play along too.

The bicycle slowly rode past the camphor tree path, and after a bend it arrived at a farm.

It was a beautiful farm, connected by a stone bridge. The river was clear and flowing. Across the bridge was a farm surrounded on all sides by water. There were many vegetable gardens along the riverbank, planted with cucumbers, bitter gourds, and eggplants, stretching as far as the eye could see. A young girl was watering the vegetables in one of the gardens.

The little girl was about twelve or thirteen years old. She had two braids, a white shirt, a yellow jacket, and suspenders. She didn't look as fashionable as a city girl, but she had a unique charm.

Lin Ning waved to the little girl and greeted her. He stopped his bicycle and walked into the girl's vegetable garden. Cai Xiaocheng didn't know what he was going to do, so she followed him. The garden was planted with young tomatoes, each one growing well. A row of small red tomatoes hung from the branches.

"Little girl, are you selling your tomatoes"

The little girl blinked, a bit confused as to why he asked that. Was he selling tomatoes

Cai Xiaojing tugged at his sleeve, "What are you doing"

"These tomatoes are so delicious! This farm grows everything organically, without pesticides. These small tomatoes taste much better than the ones sold in the market, they are very sweet and refreshing."

"I don't like this." The scenery is nice, it's by the mountains and water, but scrambled eggs with tomatoes are okay. She's never tried eating them raw.

"Big brother, are you buying cherry tomatoes" the little girl asked sweetly. Cai Xiaocheng giggled, "Little girl, you should call him uncle, don't call him big brother. He might be older than your father."

Lin Ning turned her head and glared fiercely at Cai Xiaoning. The little girl exclaimed in surprise, laughing innocently, "How is that possible My dad is thirty-two years old, big brother looks so young."

Cai Xiaojing covered her stomach and laughed, this man is acting so young.g lightly sketched, her warmth lifting from the game, a wry smile. “Many people scold me”Cai Xiaoting hummed in response, the car turning onto the bridge as she drove and said, “Nowadays, most artists...
