1143 I Want to Make You Stay 21 (2/2)

”I already have a boyfriend now.”

”What? You have a boyfriend? Who is he? Tell me who he is,” Jing Shui said apprehensively.

”I don't wish to tell you who he is, but I really have a boyfriend now.”

”It can't be Yan Ge, can it?”

Fang Erlan did not admit or deny it and instead said, ”Regardless of who he may be, it's simply impossible between you and me. Go back to your room to get some rest. I have to get back to work tomorrow morning. I'm really tired now too.”

Jing Shui finally retracted his hand and said, ”Go to bed, then.”

”Jing Shui.”

Jing Shui stared at her quietly and waited for her to continue speaking.

”I initially wanted to just be friends with you. However, it seems we might not even be able to be friends from now on. It's better that we cut ties with each other, lest you cause me any more disturbances,” said Fang Erlan, who thought that it was better to make things clear. What he did tonight made her feel that it would be better for them not to be friends.

”You mean, you don't even want to be ordinary friends with me?”

”Yes.”

”Alright, since you've said that, let's just pretend that it was wishful thinking on my part. I can't believe I actually decided to act in this television series for the sake of getting to see you frequently. You don't recognize my efforts at all!” He then opened the door and stormed off in a huff.

Why is he making it seem like it's my fault?

She stood up and closed the door before lying down on the bed again, feeling an immense headache.

She was already embroiled in a knotty situation, but Jing Shui just had to show up to make matters worse.

In fact, she had barely interacted with Jing Shui since filming took up the bulk of her days, leaving her with little to no time of her own.

Just why does Jing Shui fancy me?

Even though I played with him once when I stayed in his aunt's house for a few months, we were just children back then.

Fang Erlan had a vague memory of her childhood.

Hence, she did not feel upset about cutting ties with him at all.

In fact, she even felt relieved because she no longer had to be embroiled in a messy relationship with him from now on.

Ding-Dong… Ding-Dong…

Fang Erlan sat up straight and thought to herself, Is Jing Shui at my door again?

She remained silent. The knocking soon stopped.

Did he leave?

Fang Erlan lay down again and switched off the bedside lamp.

To her surprise, the doorbell began to ring again.

Fang Erlan called out, ”Who's there?”

There was still no response.

Unable to tolerate it any further, Fang Erlan got out of bed and walked toward the door, barefooted. She then peeked through the peephole.

There was not a single soul outside the door.

Did he leave?

When the doorbell began to ring again, she hurriedly peeped outside, only to discover that there was still no one outside…

Fang Erlan felt a cold shiver down her spine. Is this a prank?

I shall see just who that senseless idiot is!

She grabbed the handle of the door and flung the door open as soon as the doorbell began to ring again. Yet, there was still no one.

She walked outside and craned her neck to take a look around the corridor. There was not a single soul in sight.

She instantly got the chills. Reminded of the supernatural occurrences that took place during filming previously, she stood rooted to the ground in shock.

The doors of the elevator opened abruptly, and she finally recovered from the shock the moment she saw Xiao Chenyang walking out of the elevator.
