Yang Shushu got into Zuo Jinheng's nanny car. The car took them directly to Zuo Jinheng's private residence and then left.
This was Yang Shushu's first time visiting her idol's home. Usually people say that one should live a little farther away from their idol, but at this distance she was no longer an idol. The two of them had experienced life and death together last time, so they could be considered friends.
But she still couldn't figure out what Zuo Jinheng wanted to talk about when he called her home.
Zuo Jinheng's home is just like him, full of artistic atmosphere and unconventional at the same time. The atmosphere of this home seems to exude a sense of freedom.
Yang Shushu sat on the cushions on the ground, holding a cup of milk tea in her hand, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you have milk tea at home. Do you often have girls coming here?"
"My sister put it here. Sometimes she comes to my place." Zuo Jinheng filled himself a cup of coffee and sat in front of her.
"Then...you said you had something to tell me, what was it?"
Zuo Jinheng gestured for her to take a sip of the tea milk to taste it. She complied and took a sip, her eyes twinkling: "Huh? My idol's cooking skills are pretty good."
"Then come and drink often." Zuo Jinheng smiled.
She laughed too, but shook her head: "Forget it."
Zuo Jinheng thought about it, and suddenly said seriously: "Don't worry, that kind of thing won't happen again. Now that I'm done with this movie, I'll step back behind the scenes."
Yang Shushu waved her hands: "That's not the case, that's not the case. It's just that if I really had nothing to do and ran to your house, Mu Shicang would probably be so angry that he would throw himself into a vinegar jar."
Zuo Jinheng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, but this laugh was somewhat helpless: "I almost forgot that you are still a married woman."
Yang Shushu felt that what Zuo Jinheng said was not right. She had been married for a long time. She got married when they just met. How could she forget?
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Speaking of Mu Shicang, do you remember what I said to you in the park that time?"
Yang Shushu nodded. They were eating barbecue together in the park at that time. Zuo Jinheng was very abnormal that night and caused a big incident with crazy fans afterwards. How could she not remember it?
"Actually..." He grabbed the coffee cup with both hands, his legs resting comfortably on the soft cushions on the ground. "At that time, my grandfather was not only in a hurry to go to the hospital because I was sick, but also because there was someone else on the other side of the car accident. Maybe Mu Shicang was still young at the time and didn't notice it. After he got out, he started trying to stop passing cars for help and didn't notice that there was someone else on the other side of the car. Some time ago, I learned the truth from my grandfather's diary."
Yang Shushu stopped drinking her milk tea and looked at him, waiting for the next words. She vaguely guessed that it would not be a pleasant topic.
As expected, Zuo Jinheng lowered his head, and when he raised it again, he let out a self-deprecating smile. "Grandpa's diary said that he saw a few people who looked suspicious approaching the car. The people inside could have climbed out, but they kicked them back in and closed the car door. Grandpa could tell that those people were desperate criminals. If he had gone over, he might not have been able to save me, so he pretended not to see anything."
Zuo Jinheng lowered his head, still laughing softly, but the laughter was so suppressed that it made people breathless. "Grandpa blamed himself for this his whole life, and he couldn't untie the knot in his heart until his death. And what about me? For many years, I always thought that Mu Shicang was just angry, until recently I found out that it was actually our Zuo family who watched him die without helping, and I was one of them. If I hadn't been there at the time, maybe...Grandpa wouldn't have stood by and watched."
After saying that, he drank the whole cup of coffee, but the bitterness in his mouth could not suppress the bitterness in his heart. He simply went to get a bottle of wine and sat back down.
Yang Shushu reached out and grabbed the hand holding the bottle: "It's all in the past, and you didn't know anything at the time. Your grandfather... I can't say he was right, but I can't say he was wrong either. Everyone has a house. He wanted to protect his grandson. There's nothing to say, it's just..."
Whenever she thought of the photos of his parents in Mu Shicang's room, and his expression when he mentioned his parents, she still felt very sad.
Zuo Jinheng looked at the hand holding his. The suitable temperature against his wrist was like a stimulant, and his heartbeat began to speed up inexplicably.
He knew this was wrong, but he couldn't suppress the feeling. He let go of the bottle and took her hand: "Do you know why I'm telling you this?"
Yang Shushu was attracted by his words and didn't notice that her hand was being pulled by someone: "Why?"
Why? Actually, he didn't know. In fact, he could have told her directly, but he didn't want to be a despicable person.
Finally, he could only say: "I want to tell you that Mu Shicang has been looking for those strange people. He must be looking for revenge. But the road to revenge is not easy. You'd better keep an eye on him and tell him not to be too persistent, so as not to get into danger."
Yang Shushu was stunned for a moment, then naturally withdrew her hand, not even noticing that they had been holding hands. She laughed, "So you do care about him, why don't you just tell him? Are you going to keep being enemies like this?"
"What can I do? Can he forgive me? Probably not? Besides, if I still want to... I guess he won't." He hesitated for a moment, shook his head and smiled.
Yang Shushu took his words to heart, but——
"Has he found any results in these years?"
"Then you can only ask him himself. I'm afraid that except for his grandfather, no one else in the Mu family may know much about it." Zuo Jinheng said meaningfully.
But Yang Shushu didn't notice, she just nodded: "Okay, let's ask him then. If he's too difficult to deal with, we can try another method."
Zuo Jinheng: "..." Shouldn't we advise him to wait until revenge is over? Do you know who he wants revenge on?
Yang Shushu didn't think that much at all, and Zuo Jinheng could only mention it briefly. He couldn't say anything further.
The two chatted about some things related to the entertainment industry. When they talked about what Zuo Jinheng wanted to do after moving behind the scenes, he directly mentioned director with great certainty and without any hesitation, as if he had thought about it a long time ago.
"Actually, I've wanted to quit for a long time. This incident just accelerated my pace. There are many things I want to try, and acting is just one of them."
Yang Shushu felt a little emotional after hearing this: "I really envy you for knowing what you want."
Zuo Jinheng was stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "Don't you know?"
Yang Shushu tilted her head and thought about it, then shook her head: "Rather than not knowing what to want, it's better to not know how to do it."
This was the first time Zuo Jinheng heard her talk about herself. He took it to heart and sat down next to her. "Tell me about it. Perhaps as a senior, I can give you some advice."
Yang Shushu turned to look at him and laughed: "I graduated from a normal school and taught Chinese, but you can't imagine that I like painting, right?"
