Chapter 25, exclusively released...
Kim Jin-ah felt a chill in her heart. She was beginning to understand what Kwon Ji-yong was about to say, but she couldn't accept it.
"We can talk things out, have an open and honest conversation, and express our respective grievances. But I don't accept breaking up. You were the one who started it all. You were the one who... yet you wanted to leave when I was falling for you. Zhilong, some things can't be started just because you want to, and then ended just because you want to. You can't let someone fall for you and then just walk away. That's not fair at all..."
Kwon Ji-yong looked up at Kim Jin-ah in surprise. He thought that Noona would run away again this time, but he did not expect that she would divert attention from their problems this time.
"But where is fairness in matters of the heart? If we're talking about fairness, was there any fairness between us when I first pursued you? Doesn't Nuna know what kind of image I have among Nuna's friends? They all say I'm a dog that Nuna keeps, a dog that comes when called and goes when dismissed, a dog without dignity. Doesn't Nuna know that?"
Kwon Ji-yong's question made Kim Jin-ah's face turn ugly. She had returned too late to stop the situation from developing. It was indeed as Kwon Ji-yong said: if you don't like someone, you will trample on their feelings. She wouldn't say a word for him even when her friends ridiculed her.
But she changed later. When she was with him, she gave him her heart. Even though he didn't reject other people's affections, she still endured it.
"So now you're going to hold those past things against me?"
Kwon Ji-yong closed his eyes in pain.
“Nuna, the problem between us has never been those things, but your constant pressure. Yeonjin and I have a simple senior-junior relationship. Yes, Yeonjin does like me, but she's still a child, and she has dreams. She can't possibly give up her dreams for me. Every time she comes to see me, it's just to learn. She's truly a very talented person, and I don't want…”
"But you're not a teacher!!! At least you're still learning from others!!! Is she without a teacher? Or, without my knowledge, did you, Kwon Ji-yong, already become a teacher to a YG trainee!!!"
Using the same rhetoric again, Kim Jin-ah was extremely dissatisfied and immediately erupted in anger.
"But no matter what, it's still the same in the future..."
"Would you help someone else if they asked you for help? To put it bluntly, Kwon Ji-yong, you're just enjoying Lee Yeon-jin's affection for you. If you put yourself in my shoes, what would you do if I had a guy who didn't need my help but was always clinging to me? Have you forgotten how you reacted before?"
Kim Jin-ah's question left Kwon Ji-yong speechless, but he did not give Lee Yeon-jin any signal, and there was no ambiguity in their conversation.
“That’s our problem. You insist on believing what you see, and I can’t understand your unease and the sadness of your distrust.”
"It's happening again... The problem has been thrown at me again. I admit I have problems. I don't trust you, I'm insecure, but it all stems from my love for you. Because you're so outstanding, you'll attract many outstanding people, and I'm afraid that without my knowledge, you'll be snatched away by them. But Zhilong, you know what? If you were firm in your stance, firmly stood by my side, and told me that you have nothing to do with them, that you would reject them, I would believe you unconditionally. But you can't do it... You can't even distance yourself from them. How can I regain the sense of security I've lost?"
Kim Jin-ah was already sobbing uncontrollably. Looking at the girl he once loved so much, Kwon Ji-yong felt a sense of helplessness spreading through his heart, which eventually turned into frustration.
"Nuna... I think we should still..."
"Don't even think about breaking up with me, I can't accept this outcome!!! Even if we end up hating each other, I still don't want to break up with you!!!"
As if seeing those days of being attacked, which caused her to drift aimlessly through her studies and ultimately end her previous life in frequent and painful ways, Jin Zhen'er was in a daze.
She felt that all the ordinary suffering in her past life came from Kwon Ji-yong. If he hadn't liked her and pursued her unilaterally, and hadn't told the public about it, she wouldn't have been attacked by those irrational fans. Even after he became famous, some people maliciously speculated whether she would regret it.
All of this was too much for her to bear, which led to a series of events that followed. If she could do it all over again, Kim Jin-ah felt that what she needed to do was address the root of the problem: what if things had been different if she had been with him from the beginning?
But now she says she wants to break up with me, so am I going to go back to the old ways again?
Or, if Kwon Ji-yong were not the Kwon Ji-yong of his past life, but became an ordinary Kwon Ji-yong, would those things never happen again?
Kwon Ji-yong was unaware that Kim Jin-ah's thoughts were slowly becoming dangerous; he was still agonizing over how to successfully break up with her.
Actually, I wasn't planning to bring this up today. I wanted to ease the tension between us and bring it up slowly after we had both calmed down.
But who knew that the conversation would end here so quickly? Kwon Ji-yong felt that if he didn't take this opportunity to bring it up now, he didn't know when the next chance would come.
Looking at Kim Jin-ah, who looked like she was about to go crazy, Kwon Ji-yong was really troubled. He regretted that he should have rejected her when she came back to him instead of going along with her and dating her because of his own thoughts and resentment.
Sometimes he agreed with what Dong Yongbae said: the reason why the white moonlight is the white moonlight is because it can never be obtained. What you can't get will always be restless, and once you get it, you won't cherish it.
Although he didn't want to admit it, this phrase was very fitting for him. Kwon Ji-yong never expected that he would have the potential to be a scumbag.
"Jiyong, don't say that Nuna has treated you badly. I'll give you two choices: either stay with me or break up with me, and your career will be ruined."
Kim Jin-ah suddenly looked up, her eyes bloodshot as she stared intently at Kwon Ji-yong. Under her gaze, a cold sweat broke out on his back.
Nuna...she's gone mad...
——————————
"I'm crazy, I'm crazy about you. Choi Sung-hoon, I'm not someone you can mess with whenever you want. Now that you've messed with me, it's troublesome. Keep messing with me forever, or I don't know what crazy things I might do..."
It's all thanks to Kim Jin-ah that she had a burst of inspiration today. She felt that even if things didn't go as she predicted, the atmosphere between the young couple wouldn't be good. She just hoped that Kwon Ji-yong could hold his nerve and not make things too ugly.
However, she felt it was a bit risky. Kim Jin-ah would probably go crazy, and Kwon Ji-yong would have some reservations. They couldn't break up, but the atmosphere would definitely be bad.
Forget about these people, I should just focus on writing.
"But you put too much pressure on me. Your unbridled and constant suspicion is driving me crazy. Your distrust hurts me so much..."
"hey-hey......"
As Jiang Yalin wrote, she found it somewhat amusing. Perhaps it was because this kind of subject matter was still rare, and quite a few people were reading this novel. At least the revenue from her backend was enough to cover her monthly expenses.
At this point, whether it's a TV series or a novel, the plot is naturally as melodramatic as possible. Most of them involve a rich young master falling in love with an ordinary girl. Jiang Yalin, while referencing the plots of Quan Zhilong and his female protagonists' novels, also greatly added these kinds of content that would leave girls' minds blank.
There's no other way; they love reading it, and I can make money from it, so why shouldn't I write it?
After writing two pages of a romance novel with a completely empty head, Jiang Yalin, who got up early the next day to go to work and called Quan Zhilong, was surprised to find that Quan Zhilong's dark circles were almost down to his chin.
"You broke up yesterday?"
Quan Zhilong glanced at Jiang Yalin speechlessly. If they had broken up yesterday, he wouldn't be acting like this.
Thinking of Kim Jin-ah's appearance yesterday, Kwon Ji-yong felt a chill run down his spine.
"Yalin, how much do you really know about Zhen'er?"
"Huh? You're asking me? Isn't she your girlfriend? Why are you asking me this?"
Jiang Yalin took a step back tactically, looking at Quan Zhilong with a suspicious expression.
"I was just asking, asking what other people thought of her."
"Then I won't get involved. This is between you two, and I won't comment on it."
Whether they continue dating or break up dramatically, Jiang Yalin will absolutely not get involved.
"But... she said he made me lose my career."
"That won't do!!!"
Jiang Yalin, who hadn't wanted to get involved just moments before, became even more agitated than the person involved when she heard him say that, which surprised Quan Zhilong.
Why are you so agitated?
If he wasn't mistaken, he ruined his career, but someone who didn't know better would think he ruined hers.
"Tell me more, and I'll analyze it for you."
".......yesterday........"
Quan Zhilong recounted everything he could say yesterday. After listening, Jiang Yalin couldn't help but glance at Quan Zhilong a few times, and those few glances made him extremely uncomfortable.
"Just say what you want to say. It's embarrassing to be staring at me like that..."
"Hehe... So you can be embarrassed after all. Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
