"Besides..." Her voice paused, "They took all the compensation for my parents' death, and there were even many inheritances left by their parents. They were not really that poor, but... they were too greedy."

And she didn't want to fulfill their greed.

"Okay, let's not talk about it." Zhong Keke cheered himself up and took a deep breath, "I still have to continue drawing the storyboard. If I don't finish it, I will really have to stay up late today."

As she said, she walked back to the workbench and began to continue drawing storyboards.

Gu Lichen was standing aside, quietly looking at Zhong Keke, without realizing his destiny.

———

When Zhong Keke finished drawing the storyboard in his hand, he saw that it was already past 6 o'clock in the evening.

"I'm sorry, I've forgotten the time I draw it." She quickly apologized.

"Is the painting finished?" Gu Lichen asked.

"Um."

"Then go and have a meal, what do you want to eat?" he said.

"Or it would be better to have a small restaurant near the studio. The second time we met, we happened to meet the restaurant." Zhong Keke said.

Gu Lichen's eyes flashed slightly. The restaurant was a small noodle restaurant where Ling Yiran had worked before, and it also had many memories of Yiran.

"Why did you suddenly think about going there for dinner?" he asked quietly.

"Maybe it's because it's where we become boyfriend and girlfriend, so we feel... very friendly." She said. What she didn't say was that she usually works in the studio and often goes there when she eats alone.

Every time she sat inside and had a meal, she would think of the fate between her and him.

If she hadn't walked into that small restaurant that day, then maybe she and him would have done this.

Fortunately, she didn't miss it.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, then go and eat there."

Because the restaurant is not far from her studio, the two of them walked over on foot.

After entering a small restaurant, the two ordered a meal. Although the relationship between the two had become a hot topic, fortunately, although Gu Lichen is the prince of the entertainment industry, he is not a star after all, and no one is recognized in such a small restaurant.

However, his clothes and temperament are still sitting in such a small restaurant, but there are still people looking at each other from time to time.

After a while, the food was served. Zhong Keke lowered his head and ate the food, hesitated and said, "Are you free next Wednesday?"

Gu Lichen asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Next Wednesday, the company will have an important film and television contract to sign.

She bit her lips slightly, "Next Wednesday is my parents' death day. If... if... if you have time, can you accompany me to worship? I...I want to take my parents to see my boyfriend."

She hopes that her parents know that she is not alone now and there is someone to accompany her. Even if... she doesn't know how long this companionship will last, but at least she is happy now!

He was silent.
