That was when we separated after our confession failed...
On that rainy night, Jing Zuohuai returned to Yaoxing Company in the evening and talked with Chi Chengyu for a long time before finally signing the bet agreement. However, the bet was kept secret, known only to him and a few of the company's executives. They had watched Jing Zuohuai grow up and were very supportive of his ideas, so after explaining the pros and cons to him, they decided not to disclose the information to the public.
Jing Zuohuai followed this advice and went to join a film crew abroad after finishing his final exams in his junior year, claiming to the outside world that he was going there to study.
"It's actually been okay. I don't feel like I've suffered much. I know I've had a smoother path than most people, so I'm very grateful and content," Jing Zuohuai said. "The most difficult part was the first year abroad. I wasn't used to the food culture, and the time difference, so I was working non-stop, filming day and night."
But fortunately, I had a lot of help from people around me. My friends, co-stars, and crew members all took good care of me. I learned a lot with their help, and I am really grateful to them.
"It was almost like this for the three years I was abroad. After all, it was a bet, so the work frequency was definitely very high. It was very tiring at the beginning, but after that, I got used to it."
After the bet was completed, he returned to China and established a studio, with the main purpose of signing He Zhijin. Fortunately, he returned after many twists and turns, and everything he had done during this period was worth it.
"Then I set up a studio, went to discuss the termination of your contract with Chiyang, and went to find Qiuchi, Buwei and the others to let them into my studio."
"So you bought me for 80 million, and kept them with a high commission?" He Zhijin interrupted him.
He hesitated to speak, feeling somewhat unhappy, and muttered softly, "How come you even know this..."
The little gesture was so cute that He Zhijin couldn't help but pinch the back of his neck. "I know a lot, but you just terminated your contract, so you shouldn't have much money."
"I didn't have much liquid capital at the time, but I still had a lot of real estate." Selling the car and house to make up the difference actually made up the difference.
He Zhijin silently took note. He had some understanding of what happened after that.
I became his agent in disguise, actually just to help Jing Zuohuai and assist him.
He helped Qiu Chi and the others schedule classes, arrange teachers for them, and select resources for them. This was all done by Jing Zuohuai himself. Including helping them reconnect, this was all Jing Zuohuai's silent contribution behind the scenes.
He Zhijin knew that Jing Zuohuai's decision to let him become his assistant and follow him around the crew was an indirect way for him to rediscover his love for the stage. He understood all these principles, but at first he had put them all aside and didn't want to think about them too deeply.
"What about...little ears?"
Little Ear is his beloved pet and also his family.
"He died of old age." Jing Zuhuai sighed and snuggled in his arms. "He passed away a week before I went abroad. I was busy with school at the time, and Miaomiao was also busy. There was no one at home. Little Erduo was at home, holding on until the last moment at the door, just sitting there quietly waiting for me."
He Zhijin could clearly sense that he was a little sad, and his throat was a little tight. But he heard Jing Zuohuai say, "It didn't wait for me in the end. I went home too late that day, and when I opened the door, I saw Xiao Erduo lying there obediently, motionless. I thought it was asleep, but I didn't expect..."
He Zhijin hugged him and kissed him gently.
"I'm fine." She touched his lips gently. "I was very sad at first, but I'm much better now."
Afterward, Jing Zuohuai took Little Ear away and buried him under a tree. He collected all of his belongings, leaving only his photo at home. It was this little bit of comfort that kept him going when he went out to work.
"Then, actually, you know." Jing Zuohuai spoke carefully, "My heart disease, Xu Qing, my psychiatrist, said it's a kind of paranoia. When the mind is hurt, the brain produces a medium that causes memory disorder, and I will unconsciously replay the roles I played before."
They are all sad...
"So the clips you couldn't get out of before were because you considered yourself a character in the play?"
Jing Zuohuai nodded slightly.
He Zhijin hugged him tightly, not knowing how to comfort him. He felt extremely distressed. No wonder Jing Zuohuai was so exhausted from filming and had such a negative impact on his body. It turned out to be because of this.
"I agreed not to feel sorry for you and I don't feel guilty." Jing Zuhuai turned around and looked at him, looking into his eyes, "Everything I did was out of my own selfishness. I haven't apologized to you yet. I was wrong to drag you into the circle without understanding your true thoughts. I didn't respect you, sorry..."
"Don't apologize to me, I should thank you." He Zhijin kissed his eyes, "It is your persistence that allowed me to pick up the dream that I had given up, so you don't need to apologize to me."
His approach may be a bit paranoid, but if he hadn't done that, he really wouldn't have been able to join the crew and film until now.
"I know everything you've told me. To be honest, it would be a lie to say I don't feel sorry for you or guilty, but I'm more touched. Thank you, Xiaojing, thank you for holding me together until now."
Thank you, my baby.
Jing Zuohuai couldn't believe it. "So everything I did was right? I didn't force you to do it?"
"Pfft." He Zhijin was amused and hugged him and kissed him again and again, "Baby, how much has this matter affected you, huh?"
So cute, I never knew Jing Zuohuai had such a cute side.
"Who can force me? If I don't really want to."
This sentence is correct. In fact, He Zhijin is also very stubborn, even more stubborn than himself!
"Well," Jing Zuohuai said, feeling spoiled, "Look, I've already told you my story, so can you also tell me about yours? I want to hear everything about you from childhood to adulthood!"
He spoke cautiously, "Is it okay?"
He made this request because he was sure that he couldn't do anything to him.
"Okay." He Zhijin sighed.
I will tell him everything he wants to know.
Since they have decided to be together, they should tell each other without reservation. He Zhijin doesn't want him to worry about him. He is too tired. He hopes Jing Zuohuai can take a rest.
