"You, why did you do this just now? You never do this before." After the kiss, Cheng Jingjing gently touched the lips that Zhao Yu had kissed, puzzled.

"This is something I have always wanted to do but have not dared to do." Staring at Cheng Jingjing, Zhao Yu expressed his true thoughts without concealing anything.

After a pause, Zhao Yu continued, "Jingjing, the me in front of you now is the most real Zhao Yu. Jingjing, because you said before that you like gentlemen, I often try to restrain myself and try to be a person you like."

"But doing this didn't seem to make you get closer to me, and I almost lost you. So, I decided that from now on, I will no longer pretend in front of you. I want to be myself."

"Beichen is right. If you really like me, you will like the real me. Pretend things will not last long even if you get them."

In one breath, Zhao Yu blurted out the words that had been pent up in his heart for a long time.

After hearing what Zhao Yu said, Cheng Jingjing was stunned for a long time. After a while, she said slowly: "It's all because of your cousin. He led you astray."

"It has nothing to do with anyone else. I made this change because I figured it out myself. Sometimes, happiness really needs to be fought for."

Zhao Yu shook his head, denying Cheng Jingjing's words.

"Jingjing, I want to tell you something else." Seeing that Cheng Jingjing remained silent and didn't know what she was thinking, Zhao Yu continued.

Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Zhao Yu planned to speak out all his thoughts. Even if he couldn't get Cheng Jingjing's understanding, he didn't think it mattered.

After all, Cheng Jingjing is the person Zhao Yu wants to spend the rest of his life with, and Zhao Yu doesn't want to hide anything from her.

"What's the matter?" Hearing Zhao Yu's tone was a bit heavy, Cheng Jingjing asked nervously.

Cheng Jingjing felt that Zhao Yu’s next words might affect their future.

"Jingjing, I have decided to go back to work at Zhao's." Zhao Yu looked at Cheng Jingjing and told him the decision he had made a few days ago.

"Why, isn't being a doctor your dream? Why did you suddenly change your mind and return to Zhao's to do something you don't like?"

Knowing that Zhao Yu likes the medical profession just as much as she likes being an actor, Cheng Jingjing doesn't understand why Zhao Yu suddenly made such a decision to change his original intention.

"In addition to pursuing our dreams, we also have responsibilities to fulfill in this life. The Zhao family needs me very much now, so I have to go back."

Zhao Yu looked at Cheng Jingjing and answered in a somewhat painful tone.

"What happened to Zhao?" Cheng Jingjing asked with concern.

"My eldest brother made a wrong decision some time ago, which caused Zhao's stock price to plummet. My father was also implicated because of this incident."

"Now the shareholders of the company are using this as an excuse to force my father and eldest brother to abdicate. In order to prevent the Zhao family from falling into the hands of outsiders, I have no choice but to go back and take charge of the situation."

He didn't want to tell Cheng Jingjing about this so as not to make her worry, but under Cheng Jingjing's constant urging, Zhao Yu still told her the story.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" Cheng Jingjing looked at Zhao Yu and complained unhappily.

"I'm afraid you'll worry." Knowing he was in the wrong, Zhao Yu said this with a lack of confidence.

Not long ago, he told Cheng Jingjing that they should be honest with each other and have no secrets from each other, but not long after, he tore up what he had said with his own hands.

Knowing that what Zhao Yu said was the truth, Cheng Jingjing looked at Zhao Yu and shook her head helplessly.

"Jingjing, don't worry. Beichen is already helping me clean up the mess. I believe this matter will be over soon." Seeing the worried look on Cheng Jingjing's face, Zhao Yu quickly comforted her.

"With the help of my cousin, the problem will surely be solved soon, but the price you have to pay is that you can no longer be a doctor, Zhao Yu. Are you really willing to accept such a result?"

Cheng Jingjing looked at Zhao Yu and expressed her true thoughts.

"What can I do if I can't accept it? As a child of the Zhao family, this is a responsibility I must shoulder, Jingjing. I have no choice."

Zhao Yu said this helplessly.

Although she felt sorry for Zhao Yu, Cheng Jingjing understood that this was the reality and no one could change it.

"Jingjing, don't worry about me. I'm already actively adapting to my new role. I believe I can do it."

Holding Cheng Jingjing's hand, Zhao Yu comforted her gently.

"After something like this happened, I should have been the one to comfort you, but in the end it was you who comforted me. Zhao Yu, am I such an incompetent girlfriend?"

Looking at Zhao Yu, Cheng Jingjing asked with a bit of sadness.

"Silly girl, as long as you are willing to stay with me all the time, it will be the greatest comfort to me." Zhao Yu said with a smile, rubbing Cheng Jingjing's long hair.

"When will you leave the hospital?" Cheng Jingjing asked.

"Finish this month. I have a few surgeries scheduled before. I have to finish them before I leave."

Ever since becoming a doctor, Zhao Yu has been wholeheartedly thinking about his patients. Even if he has to leave, he will complete the surgery he has agreed to, so that he can leave with peace of mind.

"You've been very busy recently. Are you dealing with Zhao's affairs while rushing to complete your scheduled surgery?"

Cheng Jingjing now realized why Zhao Yu had been so busy during this period.

Zhao Yu nodded and responded: "About the same!"

Hearing him say this, Cheng Jingjing felt even more that she had failed in her duty as a girlfriend.

"Now that you've encountered something like this, should I give up my dream and go to the company to help you?" Cheng Jingjing asked what she was currently thinking.

"No need. It's enough for one of us to sacrifice our dream. There's no need for both of us to sacrifice together. Jingjing, go do what you want to do. You don't need to worry about the company's affairs."

Zhao Yu shook his head, denying Cheng Jingjing's words.

"If I had the ability like Ning Xi, I would definitely be able to help you. You see, with Ning Xi here, my cousin can ignore the things happening at the entertainment company."

"For someone as capable as Ning Xi, I really don't understand why Grandpa Huo just doesn't like her and tries every possible means to stop her from being with her cousin."

"The most infuriating thing is that Grandpa Huo forced Lian Yiyi and her granddaughter to move into the old house." Speaking of Mu Ningxi, Cheng Jingjing remembered what she heard from her mother yesterday about Lian Yiyi, and began to speak up for Mu Ningxi.

"When did Lian Yiyi move to the Huo family's old house? Why didn't I hear Beichen mention it?" Zhao Yu asked after hearing what Cheng Jingjing said.
