She grew up at the age of eighteen and said innocence was a bad thing, smiling was a bad thing, really a bad thing.

Smiling was a way to move one's face, so smiling didn't mean that she was happy.

The heart and the surface began to be inversely proportional.

For a long time, rumors spread about Jiang Yayan and Bai Xin, but as Jiang Yayan resumed his pursuit of Ji Li, those rumors also disappeared. In any case, they had not established a relationship yet, so there was no such thing as breaking up or not breaking up. They would still meet again, but Jiang Yayan was no longer so polite to Bai Xin.

This was because he knew very well who the person he liked was, even though the person he liked came in a strange way.

Bai Xin was also happy to see such a situation. Friendship seemed to be the best way to put it, it could be created when there was a need for gossip to stimulate other people's eyes, or it could be completely removed when there was no need.

Right now, her acting career was just starting and she had the momentum to increase day by day. She always showed people her innocence. This key point was not suitable for gossip about her emotions.

Although the central region was far away from the central region, so that Jiang Yayan could not come here often like before, he would still think of ways to get close to her.

The first step was to completely change his attitude towards Ji Li. He was no longer as overbearing as he was before, but Ji Li's reaction was still the same as in the future, always in a tepid state. entomo-

Second, from time to time, he would give them gifts, flowers, chocolate and cell phones. However, Ji Li would return them all unmoved.

Third step, seduction.

"Ji Li, don't you like to play the piano?" I'll buy one for you. If you don't want one, you can just go straight to the piano class. " He was luring her on the side because Ji Li liked to play the piano and he didn't believe that she didn't want anything.

Piano? Ji Li's heart trembled. How much he had yearned for this unfulfilled dream!

"I'm sorry. I don't like playing the piano anymore. " Ji Li calmly said, because the piano did not bring happiness, but sadness. And she didn't want to owe him anything. They were even, without hate, without love.

"Ji Li, why are you so cold-hearted. What do you want from me?" Her attitude was neither cold nor hot, just like an unbreakable fortress. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't take down her heart, and there was a tenacity in her body, one that was not angry, nor excited. She calmly guarded her walls like water.

"Don't bother me anymore, that's what I want the most, Student Jiang." His tone was as casual as if he had greeted someone in the morning. He didn't seem to care at all.

Some people bet that Jiang Yayan would explode and repeat the same old trick, but he didn't. Some people bet that Ji Li would eventually accept him, but neither did she.

Many things were out of everyone's imagination.

In the following two years, Jiang Yayan rarely bothered her. He often carried all kinds of beauties and arrogantly flew across the campus, lifting up the leaves and dancing in the air. The speed at which he changed his girlfriend was even faster than changing his clothes.

The seasons were constantly changing, and even his personality was changing under the cover of the earth.

Ji Li had learned to be indifferent and disguised, she thought, to protect himself.

The postcards came to her every season as promised, like birds without wings, crossing the Pacific Ocean and coming to her side. She treasured the fact that she kept them in her book, taking them out when she was in a bad mood or had a hard time, and watching the natural beauty above her, she calmed down.

The sea, the flower fields, the countryside, the ice and snow of the Arctic, she sometimes wondered if he was going to study abroad or travel around the world.

Brave, beautiful, strong, confident, protective … These were all the expectations he had given her, so how could she fulfill them all? She really wanted to see it. Because she was the only one who truly treated her like this.

She really wanted to let him see her different from her before she left. When she thought of Ji Yixi, there was always a kind of warmth in her heart. It was like a warm winter sun, allowing her to close her eyes in relief.

She studied diligently, hoping that she would lose the feeling she had towards Ji Ye. However, every time she saw him, her heart would pound, and she would feel both joy and pain.

When she entered the middle of the high school with her first place grade, no one dared to underestimate her. This year, she had reached the age of 18 and had become an adult.

She had grown some hair in secret, and without makeup she was too beautiful to look at, just that she was growing less and less fond of smiling honestly and talking to people, and for a while she didn't speak for a week, which made her think she was going to be dumb.

Unspeakable love, everyone's indifference and hypocrisy.

She knew that not only could she protect herself just by being cold, but she also wanted to prevent herself from finding her weakness. Didn't her uncle always say that she loved to dress up? Now that she had really started pretending, she had no choice when everyone around her was wearing masks.

She practiced how to smile perfectly, how to answer that she was unassailable.

"Ji Li, you're so awesome. You got a perfect score again." On the newly announced mock exam rankings, her name was shockingly at the top.

"Thank you for your praise!" She smiled moderately. It wasn't too exaggerated, and she wouldn't be too sincere. She said that it was just a slight movement of the corners of her mouth.

Another winter had arrived, and in a few days it would be her birthday. It would also be Ji Xue's birthday.

That day was the day they were adopted. She could still clearly remember the scene when they first came out of the Orphan Garden, the first time she saw her uncle. He was like a god under the sun, the light always deceived her, giving her a bit of false image.
