“To be honest, I thought I was right at that time. Liu, you don’t know that I used to think that everything I did was right. But in the end, I found I was just a tool in others’ eyes. After I was all used up, I would be worthless!”
Jiang Jingcheng continued to bow his head, and he almost broke down. Seeing his decadent appearance, Assistant Liu probably understood the reason.
“You are a tool in others’ eyes, and I’m also a tiny and pathetic tool in your eyes. However, I will not be as spineless as you. You are just a fool who did nothing but got drunk! You are really unpromising!”
Jiang Jingcheng stiffened for about five seconds. What Assistant Liu said was right! He was a man who dared not face the reality!
“Who is the manipulator really wanting to harm the studio?” Assistant Liu looked at the man next to her helplessly again. The most important thing right now was not to quarrel with each other, but to solve the company’s crisis.
“I can’t say that. I…”
“Liu, you have to know that I also have difficulties. I…” Jiang Jingcheng hesitated for a few seconds. Although Chen Qian treated him like that, he couldn’t bear to see that Chen Qian got nothing at last after taking great pains.
“I know that you just don’t want to say it. It doesn’t matter, and I won’t force you. You can go now!” Assistant Liu felt that Jiang Jingcheng was unwilling to tell the truth just because of another woman, which was a kind of torture for her.
She tried to control her emotion so that no tears would flow down. In the turning moment, her heart was completely dead and the love between them was completely over. It was not so much a premeditated deception as a short-term love.
Things finally got to bottom, and a deception went public in this way.
Jiang Jingcheng was also depressed. He couldn’t bear seeing Assistant Liu’s heartbreaking look. However, if he did not sever the relationship with her, she would be mired more deeply in this relationship. At that time, she would be more painful. And he was unwilling to end his secret crush on Chen Qian for many years.
“Get out of my house!” Assistant Liu yelled again, picked up the pillow near her and slammed it on Jiang Jingcheng’s head heavily. She didn’t know how hard she did. She only heard that Jiang Jingcheng cried out in pain.
“I’ll go! I’m going now, but thank you for keeping me for one day. This is reward.” Jiang Jingcheng said roughly. Then he was suddenly angry. He opened his wallet, took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills and put them beside Assistant Liu.
Assistant Liu picked up the hundred-yuan bills and chuckled. She didn’t need this kind of mercy for it was more of a shame to her, so Assistant Liu threw these bills into the air. Looking at the bills flying into the air and the receding figure of Jiang Jingcheng, Assistant Liu cried even more.
“Go and never come back.” Assistant Liu sobbed, then squatted on the ground, hugged her knees and cried loudly, which vented all dissatisfaction and sorrow in her heart.
Yes, she blamed herself to have bet on the wrong horse for she chose such an ungrateful man, which harmed her as well as the company.
The way men used to vent their emotion was to get drunk, while that for women was to cry. People needed to vent their emotions. When the pain was suppressed in the heart, people would only be more painful!
Looking at the bills all over the ground, Assistant Liu felt that her life was as wonderful as a drama and as tragic as a tragedy! Everything was gone, but she still had to cheer up and live her own life.
She picked up those bills one by one, planning to hand them over to the company, so as to make up for the mistakes of Jiang Jingcheng.
After Jiang Jingcheng walked out of Assistant Liu’s house, he wandered lonely on the road. Recalling everything he experienced recently, he felt it was indeed dramatic. At that moment, it seemed that there was nothing left for him and he was the only one left in the world.
Thinking of Assistant Liu’s words that because of him, the company was in crisis and could not be run anymore, Jiang Jingcheng suddenly felt extremely painful, so he decided to go to the studio.
Jiang Jingcheng walked from the community where Assistant Liu lived to the downstairs of the studio. Although he walked for a long time, he didn’t feel tired. During this period, he thought about a lot of things, such as whether it was worth for him to do it and whether he would regret it. Finally, he understood that he did not regret doing so!
It was worth for him to win a smile from Chen Qian even if he should do all the bad things. However, he should take the consequences.
Jiang Jingcheng hid behind a car carefully, for fear of being seen by people in the studio. Looking at the floor where the studio was from the bottom, Jiang Jingcheng missed that life. The days when he was with the staff in the studio were exhausting, but he felt especially happy for everyone worked together for one goal. Those days were the most inspirational period in his life.
However, it was a pity that all good things were destroyed because of his selfishness.
Jiang Jingcheng waited for a long time in downstairs. It was time to get off work, but he didn’t see any acquaintances. Night fell. Jiang Jingcheng looked at the floor in which the studio was located again. It was bright.
Was everyone working overtime? What were they doing so late? Jiang Jingcheng’s strong curiosity prompted him to go upstairs to see what everyone was doing.
He went up the stairs instead of taking the elevator because he was afraid to see the familiar people who might revile him. “Maybe everyone hates me.” Jiang Jingcheng thought.
After walking for more than 20 floors, he finally reached his destination. Jiang Jingcheng carefully stepped out of the stairs, poked out his head, and observed the situation in the studio.
It seemed that there was no one. Such a large studio was extremely quiet. Where did everyone go? Jiang Jingcheng walked out cautiously and found Gu Yan organizing something. Her face was pale, her eyes were dim, and her hair was disheveled.
Jiang Jingcheng hid in the corridor, and poked his head to observe the surroundings occasionally.
Everything was the same as before, and his position was still the same. Jiang Jingcheng sighed softly, took all the bank cards out of his wallet and put them on the floor of the corridor. He looked up at Gu Yan again, shook his head, and left sadly.
“Oh, how could this be? Why is there no solution?” Gu Yan scratched around and fretted. She had been busy thinking about the solution for the studio these days. Her brain was about to explode, but she still had no idea. There was no way to go.
The entire studio was empty. There was just her who flipping through the documents…
