"Originally during the time I was filming, we barely met."

"Now you've suddenly taken on so many projects and we'll be apart for a long time again."

I chuckled, my attitude carelessly indifferent as I typed on the phone keyboard:

"If love can last, it isn't about constant closeness."

Zhuang Jing thought I was placated.

Then he sent me another message:

"Recently, there are two films where I'm the producer, and there are some minor roles that would suit Gu Qin."

"I was thinking of having her take them. Is that okay?"

This time, I didn't respond with any sarcasm, showing an unusual amount of understanding.

"I understand acting, but not filming."

"As long as you feel the result is best for the movie, then go ahead."

Hearing me say this, Zhuang Jing was quite moved:

"Jinli, thank you for understanding me."

I continued to show vulnerability:

"I'm actually very scared, scared you'll break up with me. I'm afraid our five years together can't compete with your first love."
