Chapter 358: The More Sober, the More Pain
"I think your relationship is awkward. If the media finds out about your past relationship, they'll probably make a big fuss about it. And then the priorities will be reversed. Everyone will just be obsessed with you two, and I'm afraid no one will care about the movie itself."
Feng Jue raised an eyebrow and looked at him, "Aren't you the one who's in charge of the media?"
Shen Yihang, “…”
"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for one."
Feng Jue didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Shen Yihang felt guilty after being stared at, and finally surrendered.
"Okay, I'll be honest with you. I really hope to use this movie to support Ningning and give her a bright future as an actress. Just think of it as paying off my grandmother's debt."
At this point, Shen Yihang's eyes became extremely serious, "So, Jue, I don't want anything else to happen on the day of the wrap-up banquet that could overshadow Ning Ning."
"If Yan Ai's relationship with you is exposed by the media, do you think that the news that day will also include the story about Ning Ning, the heroine of the movie?"
"Do you think Jiang Qiuning would care about this?" Feng Jue asked him with indifferent eyes.
“Even if she doesn’t mind, I do!”—Shen Yihang almost blurted out these words.
"Why are you so cruel?" Shen Yihang said finally.
"How am I cruel?" Feng Jue sneered with the corner of his lips slightly raised.
“You know very well that Ningning treats you…” Shen Yihang said halfway but did not continue.
The last time they met, Feng Jue had told her coldly and decisively that he and Ning Ning were not even friends.
Feng Jue is so heartless, how could he consider Ning Ning's feelings just because they have known each other for many years?
"I really don't know what she did to me." Feng Jue seemed bored as he played with the wine glass in his hand, his tone indifferent.
"She barely contacted me during those years she was abroad. What could I possibly know?"
After hearing this, Shen Yihang hurriedly explained for Jiang Qiuning, "That's because you're married. If you're married, what else can she do? Ningning won't and doesn't want to be anyone's mistress. She can only keep her distance from you!"
There was heartache in his tone.
Feng Jue smiled, as if he didn't believe it, "That's just your wishful thinking."
"No!" Shen Yihang unconsciously folded his five fingers on his knees, "Do you think it's easy for Ningning to fight alone in a foreign country? She also has moments of weakness and times when she wants to talk to someone. I have been with her abroad for three or four years, so I understand her mood, her helplessness, and her clarity better than you."
"She loves you very much, but she has to suppress her feelings for you, do you know?" Shen Yihang said to the end, and even his voice was stained with a bit of pain.
Feng Jue sighed almost inaudibly, "I believe what you said."
Shen Yihang was his childhood friend, and he could tell which of his words were true and which were false with just a little probing.
As for Jiang Qiuning...
Feng Jue narrowed his eyes slightly. Whether she was really as deeply in love with him as Shen Yihang said, that was a question mark.
When Shen Yihang heard Feng Jue say that he believed what he said, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Then if you are willing to give me a favor, on the day of the film wrap-up party..."
"She won't come." Feng Jue spoke first before Shen Yihang finished speaking.
The bitterness in my heart almost burst out with these words.
The movie wrap party was her birthday, so how could she possibly attend?
In her heart, he no longer had any weight.
The more awake people are, the more painful they are.
But in front of Shen Yihang, the man did not show any emotion at all.
Shen Yihang was very happy and quickly picked up the wine bottle beside him and filled his glass again.
