Chen Ziyi had been right.
She couldn’t simply forget all the memories between them, no matter how hard she might try.
However, just like she couldn’t forget the good ones, she could not forget the bad ones either.
She knew that, even if they’d stayed together, the outcome of their relationship would still eventually be tragic.
She took a straw and drank another mouthful of yogurt, but it wasn’t the same—it didn’t taste as good as it had when Chen Ziyi brought it to her in high school.
She smiled and put the half-drank yogurt aside.
“Never mind, I haven’t had it for so many years, and it doesn’t taste right. There is a saying that some things are the most beautiful in memory, and once you try to bring them into the present, they may not be the same.”
The displeasure on Mo Shaoting’s face was suddenly swept away, and the cup of yogurt in his hand, which he hadn’t drank much of, was also put aside.
He smiled and looked at her. “That’s what I’m talking about. The old doesn’t go and the new doesn’t come! What’s so good about him, Chen Ziyi?”

Accompanying Mo Shaoting to the snack bar for lunch, she looked down at her watch and saw that it wasn’t early.
Although Jin Di hadn’t specified what time he wanted her home, she was concerned that she still hadn’t heard any news from him.
The strange thing was that when she’d left the hotel today, she hadn’t been able to find her phone. Now, even if she wanted to inform Jin Di that she wouldn’t be home for awhile, she couldn’t.
“What’s wrong? Are you in a hurry to go back?” Mo Shaoting asked when he saw the expression on her face.
She frowned, thinking that Mo Shaoting was a very popular actor and often too busy these days to make time for her. Their spending time together was a special occasion—it would be rude for her to reject his suggestion that they keep hanging out.
“No, of course not. Where do you want to go next? I’ll go with you.”
Mo Shaoting’s eyes immediately lit up. “Really?”
His tone was no different from that of an excited high school boy.
She couldn’t help but laugh. “Of course!”
“Actually, I was doing an advertising project for a company recently, and I stumbled upon this place place with a really great night view of the city. I really wished you were there to see it then…do you know the place? ‘Binhai city’s newly built ocean viewing tower, the tallest man-made building in the country!'”
She did indeed know of the place that Mo Shaoting was talking about.
The Ocean Observation Tower was a tourism project under the name of King’s Group. Not only did it cost a lot of money to build, but it was also connected to a resort project on the beach.
According to reliable sources, when this project was completed, Binhai City’s GDP would increase by at least 50%.
Because this figure was so shockingly high, and it was the famous King’s Group who controlled its construction, it soon caused a great wave of public opinion across the country.
“It’s so late, I heard that the ocean viewing tower hasn’t opened yet, we should…” she began.
“It’s okay, I’ve already told the staff we’re coming. They’ll take special care of us while we go in and take a look. Let’s go, there’s still time!”
Mo Shaoting looked very urgent, and she couldn’t bear to refuse him. Moreover, even though it was a project under Jin Di’s name, they still might not encounter him…
Thinking this, she didn’t refuse.
As was to be expected when King’s Group had exclusively funded the building…
The interior decoration was very modern. The panoramic ocean-view elevator went straight to the sightseeing floor at the top.
As she got off the elevator, she was stunned by the starry night view of Binhai City.
Suddenly, Mo Shaoting knelt down on one knee beside her and said to her,
“Zuo Aiai, be my girlfriend.”
