An Hao froze upon hearing this, "Jiaqi... do you... really not remember me?"
"I really donât remember."
Song Jiaqi thought, even though she had chosen the path of planning and moved to the backstage, her acting skills hadnât been lost. She believed her expression was calm at the moment.
Compared to confronting An Hao and tearing things up with her, Song Jiaqi preferred this approach.
She didnât want to settle accounts with her; otherwise, she wouldnât have left without a word seven years ago.
She didnât want to bring up the past, nor did she want to see An Hao again.
Looking at it now, her persistence wasnât wrong. She vanished; as long as An Hao still had a conscience, sheâd occasionally think of her and recall the things sheâd done to her in the past.
An Hao was also observing her, ultimately unable to discern anything: "Did something happen to you?"
"Nothing, just a minor accident."
"You seem different..."
"That depends on when youâre comparing. I donât know which period youâre referring to?"
An Hao stared at her blankly, finally shaking her head: "Nothing... letâs start eating; itâll get cold."
She couldnât see through.
Did Jiaqi really forget her, or was it because she already knew something?
Her heart was uneasy; after all these years... that incident remained a thorn in her heart, one she couldnât pull out. The guilt she felt for Jiaqi couldnât be expressed in words.
"I came with a task today, just to ask you if you plan to participate in our show?"
An Hao shook her head: "Iâm sorry, my schedule is very full, even if I want to, I canât participate."
"Oh, alright then. I was just asking on behalf of our director. Since Miss An Hao doesnât have time, then so be it. Itâs alright, I didnât have high hopes; I knew on the way here, Miss An Hao has different status now, even if there was time, you wouldnât come to participate in our show."
"How could that beâ" An Hao hurriedly interjected, "If I had time, and knew the planner was you, I definitely wouldâ"
"Why?" Song Jiaqi smiled slightly, well disguised, "Seems like we had a good relationship before?"
An Hao paused, almost shedding tears.
They were once so good, but now, she couldnât even remember her.
"Could you leave me your contact information, could we start anew now?"
Song Jiaqi shook her head: "No, Miss An Hao, youâre a big star now. I donât want to be seen as ingratiating myself to you. Since Iâve already forgotten, perhaps it just means our relationship wasnât all that good, so Iâd forget about unimportant people."
"Unimportant people," these words floated into her heart, as if a knife, piercing her.
"Iâve been here, completing the task given to me by the station director. Since Miss An Hao doesnât have time, Iâll be going now."
"Hey, waitâalthough I donât have time to participate, I can convince my good friend, donât worry, Iâll definitely help you."
Song Jiaqi stopped, turned back with a smile: "If it works out, then I really have to thank our past relationship."
"No need..." An Hao was in a daze, needing to support herself against a nearby chair.
Wondering about Jiaqi... how sheâs been all these years.
An Hao was absent-minded as she came out of the restaurant, suddenly hearing a few honks.
She glanced at a familiar car parked at the roadside, hesitated, then turned her head and continued walking, ignoring it.
The person in the car clearly didnât expect such a reaction, their expression changed, and they got out of the car.
