"Oh—so that's really how it is. It seems the rumors weren't false after all." The host feigned surprise, exaggeratedly opening her mouth wide. "The melody and lyrics of this song are both deeply sorrowful. May I ask, Miss Shuya—if that ring was so important to you, why did you sell it?"

"Could I decline to answer that question?" Shuya sighed and smiled with difficulty. "Everyone has moments of impulse, don't they? I'm no exception."

"Fine, then we won't discuss that question." The host could tell Shuya was displeased—this was a live broadcast, and she didn't want to spoil the atmosphere of the program over it. "According to a report in XX Weekly, someone saw you and Zhong Xiaotian going in and out of a three-star hotel. Is that true?"

"They must have seen wrong." Shuya put on a surprised expression. "There aren't even any photos—how can anyone believe news like that?"

"Heh heh, but be that as it may, there are rumors outside that you and Zhong Xiaotian are dating. Is that true?" The host never missed a chance to dig at Shuya.

"Of course not. I've said before that my heart already belongs to someone." Shuya smiled.

"Could you reveal what he does?" the host pressed.
