Chapter Forty-Six: But an Empty Joy

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the 21st floor, Song Xianzhe sat low on the floor, with an empty can of beer at his feet, and his downcast figure was reflected on the window.

Song Xianzhe shook his body, got up and wanted to grab the beer can, "Brother Ji, give me back the beer." ”

The third runner-up dodged his movements, unmoved, and threw the beer with the can in the trash with a bang, "Xianzhe, you can't drink anymore." ”

Song Xianzhe looked at the appearance reflected on the glass, describing him as haggard, with a scruffy beard, how can he still look like an idol star. Song Xianzhe stumbled under the force, Ji Jun stepped forward and wanted to support him, he pushed it away, sat down on the sofa, pressed his slender knuckles on his temples and rubbed them gently, he was very frustrated, not that his hard work disappeared in an instant, he was frustrated that he saw Qin Shaoheng's methods, maybe he would not be able to snatch Shen Rucheng from him in this life, he was frustrated that he never had the opportunity to say his mind to Shen Rucheng again.

In the past three years, I have been waiting for nothing more than an empty joy.

Tiredness dissipated in the center of his eyebrows, he waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, Brother Ji, you go back to take care of your sister-in-law." ”

Ji Jun stood in front of him, refused to leave, stood for a few seconds, and slowly sat down beside Song Xianzhe, "Xianzhe, although I am older than you, but over the years, I have worried about you once, I know that you have been more mature than others since you were a child, more thoughtful than others, and smarter than others, what you want, you know very well in your heart, so, all these years, you have been walking in that direction, no matter what difficulties you encounter, I believe that you can get what you think, but now, ....."

Ji Jun paused and continued, "Now, your fighting spirit is gone, it's not Qin Shaoheng who defeated you, it's you who defeated yourself." If we can't stay in Shanghai, we can go somewhere else and start over, but if you give up, there's really no hope. ”

This call was bitter, but Song Xianzhe was still unmoved, he kept his head down, he didn't know what he was thinking, and after a long time, he opened his mouth, and the text was not right, "Brother Ji, have you ever loved someone?"

Ji Jun was stunned in his heart, at his age, talking about the love that broke through his mind when he was young, it didn't seem very practical, the girl he married was he met in Shanghai, at that time, he and Song Xianzhe had just come to Shanghai, and the rented house was next door to her house, she felt sorry for the two of them wandering around in Shanghai, although he didn't have enough money, he also sent some food from time to time, and he was familiar with her, she was a quiet and kind girl, and she was also handsome, and somehow she fell in love with him, they could be together, and even get married and have children, it was not easy, these years, he worked hard outside, and she was at home, which one is not done in an orderly manner, he is very grateful for her dedication, and he also swears that he will be good to her and protect her in this life. If you talk about love, more has been replaced by family affection.

Song Xianzhe's question, the third runner-up did not respond, or there was no way to respond. He wanted to tell Song Xianzhe that it was impossible for him and Shen to be as scheduled, but when he thought that Song Xianzhe had lost too many things in his life, he couldn't open his mouth, he patted Song Xianzhe's shoulder distressedly, and persuaded him euphemistically, "Xianzhe, Brother Ji has also lived for all these years, and he can be regarded as understanding, there are some things that can be sought, some things that cannot be sought, things that are not necessarily bad, and things that cannot be asked for may not be good." ”

Ji Jun's words made Song Xianzhe twist his eyebrows, and he hooked the corners of his mouth hard, "Brother Ji, I understand the reason." But if I lose her again in this life, I feel like I have lived in vain. Nothing is interesting. ”

Over the years, Song Xianzhe has been very clear in terms of feelings, in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry, there are many female stars who want to cooperate to hype ambiguous topics, and he has righteously refused, which is also the reason why he immediately built a studio after he had the ability, he didn't want to be controlled too much, although it sounded incredible, but he wanted to maintain his loyalty to her, he vaguely felt that they would meet one day, when they met, he didn't want her to see his peachy news, so as to determine that he was a prodigal and unfaithful person, in the most difficult time, he relied on his belief that he wanted to see her, but now, this belief has been realized and has also collapsed, he felt that he could not hold on. It's like my whole life has gone dark.

He rubbed his hair irritably, and the bright and warm light that had been under his eyes dimmed.

Song Xianzhe's decadent appearance fell on Ji Jun's sight, and Ji Jun hated him a little, "Xianzhe, there are many girls in this world, why don't you want to take a look?"

"No one will be better than expected" Song Xianzhe shook his head desperately, his expression painful.

Ji Jun thought of Qin Su's words, maybe it would be a good opportunity.

Ji Jun knew that Song Xianzhe would not ask Shen to help as scheduled, if he could give Song Xianzhe a chance to persuade Shen to leave Shanghai as scheduled, he might not be so painful, the last thing Ji Jun wanted to see in his life was Song Xianzhe's pain, the kind of pain of losing his fighting spirit and being lifeless. Qin Su's motives were put aside for the time being, but they were always given such an opportunity, Ji Jun closed his eyes, as if he had made a big decision, and opened his mouth, "What if you are given a chance to let you meet again as scheduled?"

As soon as the words fell, Song Xianzhe froze his movements, still holding his short hair in his hand, and the light under his eyes flashed, but soon it dimmed again, "How can I have any chance to see her now." ”

Song Xianzhe knew very well in his heart that since the photos of him and Shen Ruzhi were exposed on the Internet and were widely reported, he knew that he had caused Shen Ruzhi to get into trouble, but he didn't expect Qin Shaoheng to be so angry, his apology, and his redemption were all pale and powerless, but it was just an unintentional action, and in the end, it would ruin his career. According to the degree to which Qin Shaoheng was so angry, he could think that Shen Ruzhi would not have a good time there, but he didn't dare to care about her, he was afraid that his closeness would put her in an even more difficult situation. He was worried about her, and he had thought of a way to meet her, but there were too many things to deal with.

"What if I said that this opportunity is just around the corner. Can you even take her away?"

Ji Jun's words made Song Xianzhe's heart seem to be suddenly injected with a booster, and he was carried away with joy, he didn't want to imagine the authenticity and feasibility of this, he got up from the sofa like a child, "Really?"

The sparkle in his eyes gradually brightened up again, "Brother Ji, did you see it as scheduled?" She said she wanted to leave?"

Ji Jun wanted to tell the truth, but after thinking about it, if he confessed that it was Qin Su who said it, Song Xianzhe might not believe it, but Ji Jun and Qin Su reached a certain tacit understanding, this tacit understanding may be unbelievable in the eyes of others, he couldn't think of Qin Su's reason to lie to him, they didn't have any big festives, it was worth letting Qin Su bother to set a trap for them to jump down, if Shen Ruzhi really made plans to leave Qin Shaoheng, there must be a lack of someone to take care of him, he was sure that Song Xianzhe was a good choice, he hesitated for a few seconds, and said" Xianzhe, I can't tell you specifically, I can only give you an address, you go to her tomorrow, if you can, take her away. Beforehand, you should not contact her, she may not be able to answer the phone. ”

This joyful news made Song Xianzhe lose his mind, and what he had been thinking about in the past few years was about to happen suddenly, and he couldn't come back to his senses at once, and the joy in his eyebrows seemed to throw him to the bright future he had conceived about them.

"Brother Ji, thank you. Song Xianzhe's tone was serious.

Seeing that he was back to normal, Ji Jun patted him on the shoulder and said, "You leave me alone for now, just leave as scheduled." When the time comes, when it stabilizes, contact me again, there is no big problem on my side. ”

But Song Xianzhe and he both knew very well that a photo could make Qin Shaoheng so angry, once Qin Shaoheng found out that Shen left as scheduled, and he didn't know how to move, he calmed down and carefully planned the way back.

Ji Jun was still standing in place, seeing Song Xianzhe cheering up, he was faintly relieved, he knew that obstruction would only make Song Xianzhe's feelings for Shen Ruzhi more and more indulgent, it was better to simply fulfill them this time, once they left Shanghai, no matter how big Qin Shaoheng's power was, it would not be covered for a while, maybe by the time Qin Shaoheng came to his senses, Song Xianzhe and Shen Ruzhi had already settled down somewhere. He took out a pen and paper, hesitated for a few seconds, but still wrote the address and time of the warehouse, he handed the note to Song Xianzhe, and said, "This is tomorrow's address and time, you have a good rest tonight." ”

Song Xianzhe took the note, unfolded it and looked at the address on it, stunned in place, this is his and her future, and the coordinates written on this paper will begin.

Ji Jun glanced around, briefly cleaned up the house, packed the garbage, and saw that Song Xianzhe was still standing in place, pushed him, and said, "I'll go back first." You go to bed early. ”

Song Xianzhe still nodded in a daze.

Ji Jun turned to leave, walked to the door and glanced at Song Xianzhe, a little hesitant, whether he should persuade him to think about this matter carefully, but the smile that appeared faintly on the corner of his mouth made Ji Jun unable to say anything like that. He's so good and deserves something, if it's just a chance.

The door slammed shut, and the atmosphere was silent, as if a cough could startle a trace of soul.

Song Xianzhe's fingertips still fell on the note, everything happened to him very suddenly, the pain of the last second seemed to be still vivid, the excitement and joy of the next second occupied everything, the unreal feeling surged in his mind, the car window reflected his high-spirited posture and the smile at the corner of his mouth, for the sudden happiness, all he wanted to do was hold it tightly.

The night outside the window is dark, and the dawn is quietly approaching.
