Ji Jin was totally defeated. His eyes were dim just like someone who was about to die.
He was completely different from the person a few months ago.
Ming Shu wanted to leave, but stopped. She turned her head and asked, “Did something happen internally?”
Ji Jin gave a bitter smile. “I don’t know.”
He was in fear now because he didn’t know anything.
He didn’t know whether he could still go back.
He tried many times, but the system always told him that the transportation failed.
Ming Shu left the hospital.
From the current situation, there seemed to be an organization…… but what kind of organization was it?
She didn’t know.
Little Beastie pushed Ming Shu’s hand lightly. It used its paws to scratch her palm.
“Didn’t you hear him say that I am a virtual character too?” Ming Shu pinched Little Beastie’s paw. “Maybe you are a virtual beast.”
Ming Shu: “.……”
“Maybe it is real?” Ming Shu smiled. She whispered, “This world…… who knows.”
Little Beastie went crazy.
Ming Shu smushed Little Beastie into a ball and walked into the crowd. She disappeared in the traffic.

“Sister Jiang, these are the photos from last week. I have edited all of them.” The assistant passed a USB stick to Ming Shu.
Ming Shu nodded and signaled him to put it down.
“Sister Jiang, Chinese New Year is soon. How do you plan to celebrate?”
Ming Shu had a sudden realization.
She rubbed her eyes. “Take a break once you settle everything on your end. Come back in March.”
“So long?” The assistant was shocked.
“Yes, we will not take any jobs for now.”
The assistant kept quiet. His boss accepted jobs based on her mood. She rejected them whenever she felt like it.
The photos that he passed to Ming Shu just now were from the last job they took. There was nothing else for him to do anymore.
He tidied the office and then waved goodbye to Ming Shu.
Once her assistant left, Ming Shu didn’t know what to do.
However, during this period of time, a lot of people were looking for photographers.
Chinese New Year was the busiest period for a celebrity.
Ming Shu remembered that she still had a task and chose some celebrities to shoot.
Since it was nearing Chinese New Year, everywhere was red.
It was as though everyone was happy.
“What are you thinking about?” Wen Xiaqing reached out and waved his hand in front of Ming Shu. “You were so deep in thought.”
“When are you going back?” Ming Shu retracted her gaze and addressed the person opposite her.
Wen Xiaqing smiled. “I went back a few days ago. I won’t be going back during the new year.”
He looked at Ming Shu. “Are you going back?”
“Should be. My family called me,” Ming Shu said.
A hint of disappointment flashed past Wen Xiaqing’s eyes. “When are you going back? Just as well, I have nothing to do. I can send you.”
“I booked a ticket the day after,” Ming Shu said. “Why do you seem so weird?”
“The new year is coming so it is common to have some sentiments.” Wen Xiaqing pushed the little snacks at the side and placed them in front of Ming Shu. “I could still see my university life in front of my eyes, but so many years have already passed. Time flies.”
“Yes.”
“Do you still remember the first time we met?”
Ming Shu thought for a while. “You got cheated by someone and had no money. I was going out to take photos so we met each other. I didn’t think that you would be so stupid then.”
“Yeah, now that I think about it, I was really stupid then.”
Wen Xiaqing and Ming Shu reminisced on the past for the entire afternoon.
When Ming Shu left, Wen Xiaqing sent her out. She walked in front and Wen Xiaqing walked behind her.
“Qiaoqiao……” Wen Xiaqing suddenly called her.
Ming Shu was standing at the steps below him. She looked up slightly. The light from the sunset shone on him and she couldn’t see his expression.
The latter shook his head. He smiled. “Nothing, I will send you to the airport the day after.”
Ming Shu frowned slightly. She felt that there was something strange about Wen Xiaqing.
When she left, she called his manager and asked him. The manager told him that Wen Xiaqing might be in a bad state due to the stress from work these past two days.
Besides this, there were no other problems.
Ming Shu thought about the gaze that Wen Xiaqing would occasionally give her and sighed softly.
–
Ming Shu packed her things and went back for the new year. Wen Xiaqing came to send her off and just told her to be careful. There was nothing amiss.
The moment Ming Shu went back, her relatives surrounded her and questioned her about her boyfriend, her job, her house, and her car.
During the eve of Chinese New Year, Ming Shu hid in her room and didn’t come out. Those people finally stopped questioning her.
She lay on her bed and looked at the light on the ceiling.
It was really noisy outside.
The Jiang family was a very harmonious family. Everyone would gather and spent the new year together.
The door was pushed open and a small crack appeared. Ming Shu took a look. It was the youngest stupid little kid of the Jiang family.
The stupid little kid climbed up Ming Shu’s bed and cupped his face with his hands. “Aunt, are you unhappy?”
“No.” Ming Shu chased him away. “Go out and play.”
The stupid little kid looked at Ming Shu. “Aunt, did you break up recently?”
“.…… Break what up. I don’t even have a boyfriend.”
“Sigh, then is it because the person you like doesn’t like you?” The stupid little kid didn’t give up and continued asking.
“The person I like……” Ming Shu sighed. “I don’t know where he is.”
The stupid little kid blinked. He said innocently, “Go and find him then.”
“I can’t find him.”
“Why can’t you find him, is he an alien?”
“I don’t know.”
“Why don’t you know?”
“I don’t know means I don’t know.”
“Why……”
The stupid little kid asked a thousand questions. Ming Shu picked him up and placed him outside the door. She closed the door and locked it.
The bell of the new year rang.
Ming Shu felt for her phone and picked it up instinctively.
Wen Xiaqing’s voice came from her phone.
“Happy New Year.”
“No.”
Wen Xiaqing paused. He said,
“I am not guessing. Why are you so childish?” Ming Shu didn’t have much energy. “I will hang up if you have nothing else to say.”
Wen Xiaqing’s voice was cut off.
Wen Xiaqing looked up at the brightly lit window. The snowflakes rustled as they fell. He sighed. The mist that formed due to his breath blurred his vision.
Wen Xiaqing didn’t know how long he stood there for.
The door of the house opened and the stupid little kid ran toward Wen Xiaqing. He looked up at him. “Little brother, my aunt asked me to tell you to go back. She says that she can pretend nothing happened today.”
Wen Xiaqing saw this kid before. He knew that he was from the Jiang family.
The aunt he was talking about must be Jiang Qiao.
Wen Xiaqing’s eyelashes shook and the snow on them fell down. He took out his hand from his pocket slowly and patted the little kid’s head.
He took a box from the bag that he brought and passed it to him. “Happy New Year.”
