"You know Chi Yang is wasting your talent. You're clearly capable of returning to the entertainment industry. I don't understand why you..."
Just gave up like that.
The rain was getting heavier, and the raindrops hitting the ground created ripples, dense and dense. The ground was covered with mist, floating lightly like white gauze, and it looked hazy under the light.
"People always change." He Zhijin looked at the sky and watched the rain fall, as if he had accepted his fate.
"But you told me that you would return to this circle sooner or later!" Jing Zuhuai said quickly, "You never said you were panicking. You wouldn't lie, right?"
Without saying a word, he just looked at the ground.
"Senior, please don't treat me like this. You know I was inspired by you to enter this circle!" Jing Zuohuai couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes and let them flow freely.
"Chiyang really isn't worth your efforts. You know better than me how he exploits you! How could you... Senior, I beg you, please change companies. I can help you pay the penalty, and we can find another way!"
"I'm leading the team now." He Zhijin said, "I was a little uncomfortable at first, but now... I feel pretty good."
"You're lying!" Jing Zuhuai stood in front of him. The space under the eaves was small, and the change of position exposed most of his body to the rain, and his clothes, which had been drying, were instantly wet again. He seemed to be oblivious.
"You clearly haven't let it go yet! I can see you're still yearning for the entertainment industry. I'm not going to fool you! You have the ability, the talent, and the fan base. They're all looking forward to your return. Senior, please, don't be someone else's agent. It's really not good for your development."
He Zhijin understood all these principles, but... he couldn't.
"I'm sorry." He Zhijin turned and left. He couldn't stay any longer, or he might really waver.
"You promised me! You promised me you would come back!"
He Zhijin was heartbroken. He really wanted to ignore everything and just follow his deepest desires.
But he can't!
What would happen to his teammates if he escaped? They were not yet capable of fighting back.
"Sorry, forget it."
Forgot? How could he forget?
All the efforts Jing Zuohuai is making now are for He Zhijin. How can he let it go just because of these three words?
"He Zhijin!" Jing Zuohuai called him, "I like you!"
He Zhijin froze in place.
"I like you. You should be able to sense that I like you!" Jing Zuohuai confessed unbearably in the rain. "I don't know what your unspeakable secret is, but I'm sure you didn't become a manager voluntarily! I beg you to think more about yourself and rely on me a little. I'm capable now and can help you with advice."
"After spending these days together, I know that you like me a little bit, right?" he begged.
"So, can you just think of it as my sake and not back out? Sister Jin said she wouldn't restrict me from dating, so, so she will help you too. I'll go and beg her!"
He knew that he shouldn't rush into confessing his feelings at this moment; the timing and location were not right!
But he had no choice. If he didn't say it now, he probably wouldn't have the chance to speak up in the future.
He was afraid that if He Zhijin really worked as an agent, he would become more and more distant from him.
"Jing Zuohuai!" He Zhijin interrupted him. He didn't dare look back at the nearly hysterical Jing Zuohuai, as that would only shake his determination that he had finally persevered.
"Sorry to disappoint you." He said and walked forward quickly.
"We, let's not contact each other anymore." He stopped a taxi and left.
Jing Zuohuai couldn't believe that these were the words he said in person.
No more contact? Are we going to be strangers? Then what are the two years we spent together?
He stood there in frustration.
What should I do? My senior is gone, and I can’t contact anyone else. Is there really no way out?
"Brother Jing..." Shang Miao saw him like this when he got in a taxi, and clenched the umbrella in his hand to shield him from the rain, "There will be a way."
Another way, another way...
Jing Zuohuai's brain was spinning rapidly, searching for the most feasible method.
Yes! There is a way!
Jing Zuohuai turned around and walked quickly towards the driver, and only spoke after Shang Miao got in the car.
"Go back to the company and help me make an appointment with Mr. Chi. I need to discuss something with him."
There is still a way. Even if he has to sacrifice everything, he will help He Zhijin realize his dream.
Even if he wants to give up, I will help him pick up the broken pieces bit by bit.
