Chapter 96 Helpless

The atmosphere in g·r was still very lively. It seemed that no one was affected by this sudden situation. The parties involved were more enthusiastic and even involved. Jing Rong knew that if he was going to act, he had to do it completely, so the smile on his face was perfect and impeccable. No one could tell that there was anything wrong.

Not long after Quan Zhilong left, Taeyang also arrived. Although he was embarrassed for a few seconds when he saw Jung Yunho next to Jingrong, he greeted everyone as if nothing had happened. Taeyang naturally sat on the other side of Jingrong, handed the bag in his hand to him, and said with a smile: "I just bought it casually. I don't know if you like it."

"Just come, why buy gifts?"

"It's not specifically for this celebration, I just wanted to bring you some local specialties."

Jing Rong looked down at the small bag in his hand, then put it in his bag. He raised his cup and said to the sun, "I have to drive today, so I'll have tea instead of wine. I'll toast you."

"It's just right, I can't drink either." Taiyang picked up the glass and clinked it with hers.

As mentioned before, this party was supposedly held to celebrate Jingrong, but in reality, everyone just found this excuse. Of course, Jingrong himself knew that, and after the excitement, everyone went about their own business. Even Kim Jaejoong and the others were pulled away by Jingrong's group of very friendly friends. Everyone was tactful enough to avoid Jung Yunho, and Taeyang was also invited several times, but he was really tired and declined, so the three of them sat together and chatted.

When Jing Rong mentioned the party, Taeyang actually didn't want to come. After all, it was impossible for Jung Yunho not to show up at such an occasion, but because of his relationship with G-Dragon, it was really embarrassing to see Jung Yunho. The best way was to turn a blind eye. But when Jing Rong asked him that, he couldn't say the words to refuse. Jing Rong was always thoughtful and it was impossible for her not to guess his concerns, but she still said it, which proved that she really hoped that he could go. As a good friend, how could he bear to let her down?

However, the embarrassing scene that Taeyang had foreseen was not so serious after he arrived at G·R. After all, everyone was an adult, and no one mentioned G-Dragon, and they treated him as an ordinary friend of Kyung-young. And Jung Yunho's good popularity in the circle was not exaggerated, and he really had a way of dealing with people. Taeyang's embarrassment and the slight grudge in his heart disappeared after he chatted with Kyung-young and Jung Yunho for a few words. In fact, if it weren't for this incident, Jung Yunho has always been a senior that Taeyang admired, liked and respected.

Being from the same circle, Jung Yunho is good at dancing. Similarly, Taeyang is most interested in dancing besides music. Once they start talking, they can't stop, from the past to the present, and also looking forward to the future. As a group that has experienced many ups and downs, Jung Yunho also told Taeyang many secrets of getting along with each other as a veteran. Although they may not be completely applicable to Big Bang, they are indeed sincere. From this aspect, we can also see Jung Yunho's broad mind.

I don’t know how long the three of them chatted, but then Taiyang’s phone rang. It was Top calling. Taiyang picked up the phone immediately. After all, at this time, it was impossible for Top to contact him if he had nothing to do.

"Yongpei, where are you now?"

"I'm in G.R. What's wrong, bro?"

Top was silent for a moment, then said, "I'm here with Kim. Zhilong is drunk. If you're okay, come and help me take him home."

Taiyang frowned when he heard this: "Why did he go out to drink? Didn't he say he felt unwell during the meeting and went back to rest early?"

"I don't know either." Top frowned as he looked at the drunk man lying on the ground. "But he's very drunk now. I can't carry him alone. Kim and the others are busy, and it's not convenient..."

Taeyang understood instantly that the reason G-Dragon and TOP avoided Kim's group of friends must be related to Kyungyoung. Captain Kwon was very concerned about his reputation. Even though he was heartbroken and upset about being dumped, he didn't show it in front of others, maintaining his carefree image very successfully. Besides, Kim was not very friendly to Kyungyoung to begin with. If he knew that Captain Kwon was still drinking for her, he might not have any reaction.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Taiyang nodded without saying anything, then stood up and said to Jingrong, "Jingrong, senior, I have something to do and must leave first. I'm really sorry."

Zheng Yunhao wanted to persuade him to stay, but Jingrong smiled without any obstacles and said, "It's okay, go ahead."

Without even asking why, Jung Yunho and Taeyang glanced at her simultaneously. Taeyang's emotions were complicated, a bit relieved, then turned to sadness, because he knew that Jingrong must understand him, and even more so, G-Dragon. He would definitely guess who they were talking about from the few words they said. Why can't people who love each other be together? Taeyang sighed again, not wanting to say anything more, and said directly: "Then I'm leaving. Goodbye."

"Be careful on the road." Zheng Yunhao had just finished his instructions when he saw Jingrong standing up beside him. "I'll take you out."

Taiyang looked back at her again, but before he could say anything, Jingrong had already walked over to the side in two or three steps. Taiyang could only smile and said, "Okay."

The two of them looked at each other in silence. They walked from the G.R. to the parking lot at a leisurely pace, but it seemed like a long time. Yang Yang stood in front of his car, thinking Jing Rong would not speak again, so he opened his mouth, wanting her to go back quickly and not neglect the other friends. But Jing Rong took his hand at this moment, and then a bunch of keys, with a cold touch, were pressed into his hand. Yang Yang pursed his lips, and before he could say anything, he heard Jing Rong's slightly lowered voice across from him, as if whispering in his ear: "Let him forget me... I'm actually not worth him doing this."

Taiyang felt a lump in his throat, but he still managed to remain calm and replied, "Talking about this kind of thing is useless."

"It's okay, just tell him directly."

Upon hearing this, Taiyang immediately raised his eyes and looked at Jingrong in surprise: "You want me to... repeat this sentence for you?"

"Yes."

"Why?" Taiyang frowned. He was always gentle and didn't want to force anyone, but this time he felt the urge to get to the bottom of it. "Why do you deliberately say such heartless words?"

Jing Rong pursed her lips, staring at the sun with her clear eyes without blinking. After a while, she turned around and said softly, "I'm just telling the truth."

Yang Yang didn't believe what he said. He wanted to ask more questions, but Jing Rong had already walked in. In the silent parking lot, only her indifferent voice could be heard: "Go quickly."

Sun paused and didn't chase after him. After watching Jingrong disappear from his sight, he got into the car and stared at the keys in his hand in a daze. Then, he laughed bitterly. A while ago, he heard from his colleagues in the company that Captain Quan was very showy and gave all his keys to his girlfriend for safekeeping, including the keys to the studio that Captain Quan called the "mysterious realm" and never allowed anyone to enter or leave casually. At that time, they just smiled and joked about it. Now, think about it, he must have fallen in love with her a long time ago, so the current situations are not accidents, but inevitable.

Yang Taiyang suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with Jing Rong being like this. Since it was clear that the relationship couldn't continue, one of them had to be resolute. Otherwise, continuing the relationship wouldn't only bring no benefits and would only cause more pain to the other person involved. Yang Taiyang glanced back at the distinctive G.R. logo, tossed the keys aside, and then stepped on the accelerator and took off.

When Zhang Zhiyao was dancing with her friends, she looked up and saw Jingrong and Taiyang leaving together, while Zheng Yunhao was sitting on the sofa without moving. The dim light made it difficult to see his face, but she felt a hint of loneliness from it. Zhang Zhiyao moved slightly, pushed her dance partner away, and walked towards the sofa area.

"Sitting here alone in a daze?"

Zheng Yunhao drank the wine Zhang Zhiyao handed over and said with a gentle smile: "Why don't you go out and have fun?"

"I want to take a break. By the way, where is Jingrong?"

"Sunxi had to leave for something urgent, Jingrong sent him out."

"Oh." Zhang Zhiyao nodded, her eyes dark and unclear. Suddenly, she put the wine glass on the table and smiled at Zheng Yunhao, "I'm going to be out for a while. Excuse me."

"Please feel free."

Zhang Zhiyao walked out of G.R. in ten-centimeter high heels. As soon as she reached the door, she saw Jingrong standing in the corner, looking up at the starry sky. Zhang Zhiyao knew she wasn't her, so she walked over without thinking and put her slender arm on Jingrong's shoulder: "Hey, everyone is celebrating for you, and you're just here looking up at the stars, enjoying a romantic moment alone?"

Jing Rong looked back at her, smiled, and said nothing. Zhang Zhiyao suddenly put away the teasing smile on his face, was silent for a moment, and said: "I'm sorry, it was my negligence this time, but I had no idea that Quan Zhilong would come over."

"I know."

Perhaps because Jingrong's answer was too straightforward, Zhang Zhiyao became even more worried and continued to explain, "I know this is too coincidental, so coincidental that it's hard not to be suspicious, and it also seems like my usual style, but I promise you, I really didn't plan for Quan Zhilong to show up, and I didn't arrange for anyone to tell him about the party today..."

Jing Rong interrupted Zhang Zhiyao before she finished speaking and said, "I know this was not done by you." All of this was just her own writing, directing and acting, and had nothing to do with others.

To be honest, even though Jingrong said this, Zhang Zhiyao was still a little worried and wanted to continue explaining clearly, mainly because Jingrong's lonely image just now shocked her. She was the first to bring up the idea of ​​holding a party. She simply felt that Jingrong had encountered too many things recently and her mood should not be very good, so she wanted to help her adjust. She had no other intentions at all. She was obviously well-intentioned and did not want Jingrong to have any misunderstandings.

Jing Rong saw Zhang Zhiyao's expression and knew that she still wanted to talk, so he spoke first to stop her from talking: "Zhiyao, it's in the past. There's no need to bring it up again."

Zhang Zhiyao knew what she meant, so he pursed his lips and asked, "Are you sure it's all over?"

"You know best what's been going on between him and me lately, don't you? The current situation is obviously much better than we imagined. Why are you still worried like other people who don't understand the situation?"

"I know, but he was someone you loved after all. Seeing him in so much pain now, can you really remain indifferent?" Zhang Zhiyao said, "We're all women, and I understand. No matter how deep the resentment is, I'm afraid it will be let go when you know he's serious about you, right? You talk about plans, but ask yourself, if Uncle Xue hadn't fallen ill so suddenly, if it weren't for the Xue family, would you really be able to refuse his proposal and really be willing to break up with him?"

Zhang Zhiyao never believed Jingrong's plan would go smoothly to the end. Women understand women, the most fickle creatures in the world. While they can be ruthless at times, they can easily soften their hearts towards certain people. A few days ago, she watched Jingrong gradually break Quan Zhilong's heart. While feeling deeply satisfied, she couldn't help but gain a new understanding of him, even occasionally thinking that he was quite good at achieving this. Although she was often unreasonable in her defense, she had to admit that initially, her friend didn't have the charm to attract Quan Zhilong, who never lacked women. Besides, imagine if she had someone around her who was being unreasonable, she would definitely act even more aggressively than Quan Zhilong. Love can't be forced. Besides, when Quan Zhilong was truly in love with Jingrong, everything he did was truly touching. She sometimes felt a little bad for them for teasing him like that. At least Quan Zhilong liked her when he liked her, and he was honest when he didn't like her. He didn't have the malice to toy with Xue Jingrong's feelings.

So, even she, as a bystander, would think this way, let alone Jingrong, the person involved, who was truly loved by G-Dragon? How many women could hold on to their true feelings when such a charming man loved them so deeply? Not to mention that Jingrong had been madly in love with this man before.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiyao looked at Jing Rong with even more worry.

"You think too much." Jing Rong laughed softly. Zhang Zhiyao paused and said, "Forget it. If you don't want to admit it, then don't admit it. It has nothing to do with me anyway. But as for Zheng Yunhao...you have to think it over carefully."

"What else can I consider?"

Jing Rong looked at Zhang Zhiyao with a casual gaze, but he was not entirely looking at her. Behind Zhang Zhiyao was the pitch-black night. Zhang Zhiyao's face froze. Yes, at this point, what choice did Jing Rong have?

Taeyang hurried over to G-Dragon's place. There were only TOP and G-Dragon in the private room. The empty space was in a mess. Empty bottles were piled on the table and scattered all over the floor. The whole room was filled with the smell of alcohol. Top, who always loved drinking, had no mood to drink in such an environment. G-Dragon was dragged to the sofa by TOP with great difficulty. Now he was staggering, and most of his body was about to fall to the floor. TOP hurried over to help him. G-Dragon was holding the bottle in his hand and waving it around: "One more... Cheers!"

Taiyang's eyebrows jumped and he looked at Top: "Brother, you didn't force him to drink so much, did you?"

"Am I so crazy?" Top glanced at him. G-Dragon took advantage of their inattention and drank it all in one gulp. Top shrugged and said, "Did you see it?"

"He drank all this wine by himself?!" Taiyang was still a little bit unbelievable.

Top nodded: "Yeah."

"How much did he drink?"

"You can't imagine it anyway."

As the two of them were talking, G-Dragon quickly brought over a bottle of wine, so fast that it was hard to defend against him. Now Taeyang finally understood why Top had called him over. When Captain Kwon got drunk and powerful like this, Top really couldn't handle him alone, and even the two of them combined would be enough to deal with him. Taeyang had an epiphany in a split second, but it was unrealistic for them to just ignore it. Taeyang stepped forward to take the bottle from G-Dragon, but G-Dragon swung his hand at him, almost knocking him unconscious. Top hurried forward to stop him, then shook his head at Taeyang: "Once the wine is in his hand, you can't take it away. We can only send him home as soon as possible."

Sun frowned: "If he drinks like this, will his stomach be able to handle it?"

"That can't be helped."

Taeyang and TOP worked together to carry G-Dragon to the car with great difficulty. G-Dragon was lying in the back seat with a few bottles of wine in his hands. It was impossible to take them away, so Taeyang had no choice but to let him be. He got into the driver's seat and glanced at G-Dragon in the rearview mirror. He felt a headache and said, "He looks like this. Shouldn't he go to the hospital? He must have drunk too much."

"Let's not go for now. If the media finds out, there'll be another commotion. I'll go back and make him some hangover soup."

"That's right. We have an announcement tomorrow morning, so it's not convenient to go to the hospital right now." Taeyang nodded and started the car. As he drove, he asked TOP, "Hyung, why did Jiyong get so drunk all of a sudden?"

"I'm not sure. He rushed in, didn't say anything, and just started drinking bottle after bottle." Top also looked back at Quan Zhilong, and then said, "But I guess it has something to do with Jingrong. He's been suppressed for too long recently and needs to vent properly, so I didn't stop him. Who knew that he would drink so much without paying attention."

"What problem can drinking solve?" Taiyang's headache worsened. Top glanced at him and asked, "Are you having fun in G.R?"

Taiyang's expression changed slightly, and he whispered, "From Jingrong's tone...it seems that President Xue is not well."

"Is it that serious?"

"It's more serious than we thought." Taiyang nodded, his expression serious. "Jingrong... is fully prepared."

"Oh." Top sighed deeply. He had been blaming Jing Rong for being too cruel, but after hearing the news, he could only sigh. After all, things in the world are unpredictable.

This time, Jung Yunho blocked a lot of alcohol for Jingrong. Although he was not unconscious, it was still dangerous to drive. Fortunately, they lived close to each other, so Jingrong drove Jung Yunho home. When they arrived downstairs of Jung Yunho's house, Jung Yunho unbuckled his seat belt but did not get out of the car. Instead, he turned to look at Jingrong and asked, "It's getting late. Why don't you stay at my house for the night?"

"No need." Jing Rong chuckled, "It will only take two or three minutes."

"But it's still dangerous for you, a young girl, to go back alone in the early morning."

"Don't worry." Jing Rong still had a smile on her face, but her eyes didn't change at all. Zheng Yunhao knew her attitude at a glance, and sighed slightly in his heart, saying: "Okay, then be careful, and let me know when you get home safely."

"I know. Goodbye."

"Okay, goodbye." With that, Jung Yunho pushed open the car door and put his feet on the ground. As he left the car, a very low and clear voice suddenly came from behind him, accompanied by a slight sigh, "I'm sorry..."

This was the second time. Jung Yunho's body froze, his fingers clenched into fists, his nails digging into his flesh. But he pretended not to hear, said nothing, closed the car door, and went upstairs without looking back. What he wanted was never this "I'm sorry."

After Jingrong returned home, she sent a text message to Zheng Yunhao to report that she was safe, then turned off her phone and sat in the dark living room without turning on the lights. Although the space was small, it felt somewhat empty to be alone in such a space. Jingrong looked up at the ceiling and sank into the sofa, looking very lazy and relaxed. Only she knew how nervous she was at that moment.

But one second, two seconds, one minute, ten minutes, and even an hour were almost over, and there was still no movement. Jing Rong frowned, and a bad feeling flashed through her heart, but she denied it in an instant. What a joke, she had done so much, how could she not be able to go back?

Jing Rong stared at his hands with a serious look. He could only see the rough outline in the dark, but he could still tell how slender these hands were.

She didn't want to be too extreme in many things, but if pushed to the limit, she might even go all out. Ultimately, no one could truly be free of desires, and at worst, there was still Guild Master Xue. She didn't have the heart to do anything anyway.

By the time Taeyang drove the car to their dormitory, the smell of alcohol was so strong that it could be smelled within a meter outside the car before the door was opened. G-Dragon had drunk all the alcohol and was in a bad mood. Taeyang and TOP got out of the car and helped him open the door. G-Dragon rolled down easily, pushed away the two people who were supporting him, and took two steady steps to look for alcohol to drink.

Top began to frown. He was known as a veteran alcoholic, but he never acted like this. It was such a loss of character! When Top got angry, he still acted like a big brother. He rushed forward aggressively, grabbed half of G-Dragon's arm, and dragged him to the elevator with an unstoppable attitude. Taeyang paused, quickly closed the car door, and chased after him. When they got into the elevator, Taeyang and Top were silent. G-Dragon was very well-behaved this time. He held Top's hand, his face buried in his arm, very quiet, as if he was asleep. But then, a whimper suddenly sounded in the quiet elevator. The sound was not loud, and if there was any sound here, it would almost be ignored. Taeyang and Top looked at each other, and both cast their eyes on G-Dragon. They were sure it was G-Dragon because the sound gradually became louder. Although it was still easy to ignore, it was indeed an inexplicable cry, with full of repression, like the whimper of a small animal. The two big boys wanted to comfort him but couldn't find any words.

When faced with such a situation, it is inevitable to feel sad.

Taeyang and Top silently escorted G-Dragon back to his room. His moans continued intermittently, the emotions he had suppressed for so long suddenly bursting out. He let out a free and unrestrained outburst, but the people around him, looking at his slightly red and swollen eyes, felt increasingly uncomfortable. What kind of pain could it be to make this man who almost never cried so sad? Besides pity, there was also self-blame. If it weren't for G-Dragon's drunken outburst, none of them would have known how deep his feelings for her were. He usually acted as if nothing had happened, but behind it was such a shocking pain. Why didn't they discover it sooner? Why did they think that if they were careful not to mention it casually, the wound would heal naturally?

After a moment of silence, Taeyang went out to the kitchen to cook some hangover soup. There was an older brother at home who loved to drink, so they all learned a little bit of this skill. In fact, the best at this was Daesung, a man who could go into the kitchen and out of the hall. But Daesung and Seungri were both asleep, so Taeyang felt that there was no need to wake them up. Soon, Taeyang brought the hangover soup to G-Dragon's room. He had almost calmed down and was sleeping with his quilt hugged. Top had just wiped his face, and his bangs still had some traces of being wet. Taeyang called Top over, and the two continued to cooperate tacitly. It was very difficult for G-Dragon to drink half a bowl of hangover soup. Afterwards, Taeyang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Top, "Brother, you should go to bed early. I'll watch over Ji-Dragon here."

G-Dragon had been drinking far too much. He'd never been in great shape to begin with, and thanks to Jingrong's care, he'd had no stomachaches for almost six months. But they'd gotten worse recently, and drinking too much was even more worrying. Top glanced at G-Dragon, who was lying in bed, tossing and turning in discomfort. After a moment's thought, he said, "How about this? You sleep here for the first half of the night, and I'll take your place in the second."

Thinking that he had an announcement early tomorrow morning, Taiyang didn't try to be stubborn. After thinking for a moment, he quickly nodded: "That's fine, brother, go and get some rest."

"good."

Facts proved that their staying here was indeed a foresight. In the middle of the night, G-Dragon began to vomit violently and had a fever. Taeyang and the others knew that something was wrong and immediately sent him to the nearest hospital. Of course, they did not forget to contact his agent.

The author has something to say: Ah, I am shamefully excited when writing this. My friend reminded me that I should update a chapter, so I will not say more to you. I will continue to masturbate.

The person waiting for the update threw a rocket launcher. Throwing time: 2014-03-14 16:56:36 Thank you, sister, muah!
