Ao Chen sneered, "You’re all worried about him? Have you ever worried about me?"
Angus, "You’ve been playing the field for so many years, aren’t you still well and good everywhere? If we pay attention to you, wouldn’t that indirectly be stepping on Huo Qi’s toes?"
Ao Chen was so angry he didn’t even want to speak.
So in this relationship, he was the villain, and Huo Qi was aggrieved everywhere?
He really didn’t want to exchange any more words with Angus and simply stood up, planning to leave.
Angus grabbed him, "Don’t go yet. If I said something wrong, or maybe you can talk about it. Ao Chen, I am not trying to trouble you or say how bad you are. You’re good, very good, but that comes with a caveat.
Within that period of your relationship, we also saw that Huo Qi put in more effort than you. Do you have to be so angry?"
Think about it seriously, back in the day when you were pursuing Huo Qi, how much effort and thought did you really put in?"
But why, once you got the person, did you stop cherishing him?"
In this relationship between you two, which has reached today’s situation, do you feel that you were not at fault at all?"
Think about it carefully."
Ao Chen couldn’t refute Angus’s words, which weren’t wrong. Back then, he fell for Huo Qi at first sight, and then...
It was a brilliantly sunny afternoon, and he was cooped up in his room writing music. During a break, he received a call from Jessica, the highest-paid actress in Hollywood, who had been the reigning champion for eight years, a walking goldmine.
Usually too busy to contact him, receiving a call from Jessica was quite unexpected.
Jessica spoke casually, "Ao, come to Nightclub. Everyone’s here drinking. You should take a break too."
Jessica laughed, "I saw a handsome guy at Nightclub and thought he’d be your type. I just went over to chat with him, and he’s incredibly nice. Want to come and see for yourself?"
Ao Chen, "You’re pretty skilled at pimping, aren’t you?"
Jessica, angry, "Get lost. I really think he’s suitable for you. You’ve been playing the field, and I just hope someone comes along to rein you in, to free our brotherhood of single men."
"So you’re pushing the handsome guy you saw into a pit of fire?"
Jessica laughed out loud, almost uncontrollably, "Ao, you’re underestimating my taste, aren’t you? The person I fancy, would they jump into a pit of fire? Between you and him, it’s hard to say who would end up jumping."
"Davis, Allen, and even Eric are here too. Are you coming or not? The young guy is really exceptionally good-looking."
Ao Chen cracked a smile, unconcerned, "Correction, you really can’t describe a man as beautiful, you should really go back to school."
Jessica, "What a joke, do you know how much money I lose for a day of school? You, a high and mighty Ge Langtai, have no idea what suffering is."
"Wow, you even know that name."
Jessica, angry, "Am I not cultured, huh? Who told you I have no culture? Are you coming or not?"
Ao Chen, "This kid, is he working as a waiter at Nightclub?"
His tone was very disdainful.
In a place like Nightclub, if someone was there to make money, then they were essentially a prostitute, and no matter how good-looking, he wasn’t interested.
"Beautiful indeed," Jessica rolled her eyes, "You’ve gone stupid from writing music. You haven’t even seen him, and you already know he’s just a server? People like you, in TV shows, would be lucky to last two episodes."
Jessica, triumphant, "The kid is really not bad. I was just beside him earlier. Apparently, he’s here with his mentor negotiating a contract. As an assistant director, his status is evident, and it’s clear he’s highly regarded."
"Are you sure you’re not setting me up? Nightclub is a good place for talking about making a movie?"
Jessica, belatedly realizing, "You have a point. But the kid is really discussing serious business, maybe his mentor has ulterior motives. I’m furious, I have to rescue him."
"Don’t be crazy, it’s none of your business, you don’t even know him."
Jessica, "But I can’t let him suffer for nothing, can I? I’m a person with a sense of justice."
Jessica, "That’s it, I won’t talk to you any longer. Come if you like, but remember, he’s a really, really good-looking young man. If I rescue him, I don’t know if he’ll like me;
Keeping him as a little pet wouldn’t be too bad, actually. Go on with your busyness, you don’t need to come, it’s useless asking you."
Ao Chen: "Don’t mess around, do you know who you are? Aren’t you worried about tomorrow’s headlines?"
"Now that you mention it, I’ve come to realize that, indeed. Don’t worry, I’ll have Davis go check on him. Anyway, I’m determined to be a good person."
