On the balcony, Zhou Qiming was looking into the distance and answering the phone.

The call was from Lin Song, as expected.Although he didn't deliberately hide Lin Song's coming back, he didn't inform him in advance. It would be strange if Lin Song didn't call.

After learning about Xie Yao's accident on the set that day, Zhou Qiming asked the director for leave without much hesitation. Although the director was a little dissatisfied, he didn't make too much trouble, and finally let Zhou Qiming leave, but only gave him one day.time.

One day, the back and forth journey alone has taken up half of it.In fact, even Zhou Qiming himself couldn't explain why he rushed back to see Xie Yao. After all, the way to solve the problem is to send a Weibo message, and then call Xie Yao to explain it, or tell him about it.It seems feasible to inform Chen Yi.

But he still came without hesitation, Zhou Qiming bought the nearest flight without any hesitation.On the way back, Zhou Qiming looked at the sky outside the window and asked himself, did he do these things because he was worried?

Perhaps, perhaps because he was worried that Xie Yao would be influenced by public opinion on the Internet, although he only glanced at it roughly, he could not avoid seeing a lot of vicious words.

When Zhou Qiming first debuted, he also experienced similar things. Although it was not as bad as Xie Yao's, he also experienced it.Including during the period when Zhou Qiming was soaring so fast, some people maliciously speculated that there was someone behind him, and there were many people who said it badly.

But compared to these, Zhou Qiming didn't really care that much. A long time ago, he had felt the feeling of being betrayed by someone he trusted, so compared to the so-called public opinion on the Internet, it seemed insignificant.

But when it was Xie Yao's turn to face these bad things, he still couldn't let go of his heart, although he seemed a bit reluctant even in his so-called caring position.

But Zhou Qiming knew that this time he had no way to continue to deceive his heart.After contacting Chen Yi, he learned that Xie Yao's condition was not right, and later suffered from a stomach problem and was admitted to the hospital. Zhou Qiming couldn't sit still at all.

He couldn't pretend he really didn't care anymore.

Zhou Qiming actually hesitated when he thought of disclosing the relationship between the two. Even if the publicity of their nominal relationship can relieve the pressure of public opinion for a while, what will Xie Yao face after that?

Zhou Qiming didn't know, but right now he can think of the best way to quell public opinion is to make public. If someone wants to drag Xie Yao into the water, he will stand up and say that those things are all nonsense.

He admitted that he also had his own selfishness in it, and Zhou Qiming never thought that one day he would want to rely on this so-called status to trap Xie Yao.

After New Year's Day, Xie Yao's attitude towards him changed significantly. Even though Xie Yao would still talk to him, Zhou Qiming could feel that it was different.

Zhou Qiming didn't take it too seriously at the beginning. When he experienced the cancellation of the birthday party, he thought it was just a new trick by Xie Yao, just like the tricks he used to get his attention. It was just as naive and unattractive.

But this time Xie Yao seemed to have really made up his mind, not just to get his attention as usual.Even though the two of them were still pulling each other, Zhou Qiming could still feel Xie Yao's decisive attitude. Even during the whole process, there were a few times, he could still sense Xie Yao's tendency to turn back, but in the end all of these things would come to an end.was wiped out again.

Zhou Qiming didn't know how Xie Yao was entangled in his heart, but he couldn't understand the other party's unreasonable change of attitude, and couldn't figure out what happened to make Xie Yao so decisive.

Completely separated?Zhou Qiming asked himself in his heart.

But in the end, he went from deceiving himself to accepting reality.In the end, Zhou Qiming realized that the person who couldn't accept the complete separation from Xie Yao was actually himself.

Is it because of reluctance, or because of the remaining love.Zhou Qiming shook his head, he admitted that he did have feelings for Xie Yao, but now?

Now even he himself can't tell the difference, or in other words, he doesn't want to admit his feelings for Xie Yao.

But what about the facts?

The fact is that when Xie Yao encountered difficulties, his first reaction was to stand by his side.How ridiculous it is to be so swayed by emotions.

So after facing Xie Yao's proposal to end the relationship, he repeated it again and again, which was not awkward like himself.

In fact, it's not that Zhou Qiming has never thought about having a good talk with Xie Yao, although he doesn't know where to start, or what the two of them should talk about. After all, Zhou Qiming has long forgotten that the last time he had a good talk with Xie YaoWhen is it.

"Zhou Qiming, are you listening?"

Lin Song's voice interrupted his thoughts again, Zhou Qiming came back to his senses, rubbed his eyebrows, and responded perfunctorily.

"Now you stand up and admit that the relationship between the two of you can really help him divert the wind of public opinion, but have you considered yourself?" Lin Song said angrily. He has been with Zhou Qiming for so many years, and he seldom gets so angry.You have been in the circle for so many years, don't you think about the consequences before taking action..."

"I have my own measure." Zhou Qiming interrupted the other party bluntly.

Lin Song was silent for a while when he heard this, and then asked back: "Okay, I really can't get your idea all the time, but from another perspective, have you asked Xie Yao if he is willing?"

This time it was Zhou Qiming's turn to be silent.To be honest, he thought about it. In the past, Xie Yao probably would not refuse at all, but now judging from the time the two of them got along, he felt that Xie Yao would most likely reject him without hesitation.Therefore, he asked Xie Yao in a different way, so as to find out his attitude.

"Zhou Qiming, as a partner at work, I really can't understand your decision," Lin Song's tone gradually calmed down, and he sighed, "If you tell me that it is to repay the kindness, then you are really deceiving yourself.”

Zhou Qiming fell silent, his long-pretended thoughts were exposed, and he couldn't say a word of rebuttal for a long time.

"Or, in the end, you found out that you really like him?" At this point, Lin Song's tone became flatter, "I have always rarely interfered with your work and life, and I have given you the greatest degree of freedom, but I stillI can't figure it out..."

Lin Song deserves to be with him for so many years, what he said is too sharp.Zhou Qiming couldn't deny it, maybe even he himself couldn't figure out what kind of thoughts he was holding at the beginning.

"I just can't figure it out, if you liked someone back then, why didn't you just recognize him?" Lin Song paused, then sighed again, "You have been deceiving yourself for so many years, like self-torture, Xie Yao is having a hard time, youIs it better than half a point?"

Zhou Qiming remained silent, and only Lin Song was left chattering a few words on the phone. In the end, the call was hung up sadly amidst Lin Song's sigh.

The matter has come to this point, and Zhou Qiming has also been involved. As a manager, Lin Song can't let it go, so after the phone call, he still contacted the public relations immediately, just to reduce Zhou Qiming's loss in the shortest time.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Qiming took out the cigarette in his pocket, which happened to be the last cigarette left. He lit it slowly, took a deep breath, and still lingered in his mind what Lin Song said to himself.

The phone rang again inappropriately, without even giving him a chance to buffer.But this time, it was Jiang Li who called.Zhou Qiming stared at the phone for a few seconds, but still got through the call. The other party hung up after a few brief explanations, as if feeling Zhou Qiming's uneasy emotions.

His flight is scheduled for eleven o'clock tonight, time is tight, Jiang Li is afraid of delaying the schedule, so he can only call to urge him.After Zhou Qiming agreed, he sent the address to the other party and asked her to drive downstairs to pick him up.

After a while, the cigarette in his hand was half burned. Zhou Qiming looked at the scarlet fire, extinguished it in the ashtray, and then entered the living room.

In the living room, Xie Yao was sitting on the sofa. He was resting with his eyes closed, but he opened his eyes immediately when he heard the movement.

Zhou Qiming looked at him and walked towards the sleepy-eyed man.Xie Yao was a little stunned, and he was still a little dazed. He was about to open his mouth to ask the person who was getting closer to him, but then, Zhou Qiming leaned down and put his hand gently on his forehead.

Xie Yao was taken aback by the other party's move, and his consciousness began to clear up a lot.When he reacted again, the person in front of him had withdrawn his warm palm.

Zhou Qiming seemed to confirm it. After finishing all this, he straightened up, and the words he said made people puzzled, "It seems that the fever is gone, you have to rest and go back to the room to rest, don't catch a cold."
