"That man, he let me get the exact role I wanted and not have to worry that someone else would take it. He even let me choose my script and director as I wished… even my acting partners as well! He could let me be treated fairly in all kinds of film award shows instead of merely playing the background for other people. I thought about it. Maybe when he gets tired of playing with me he would dump me without hesitation, but the days I spend with him now make me feel like my life is so glamorous without a hint of loneliness!"
"We did everything a couple would do; he pampers me like a little girl. Within three short days, he let me forget my age and even the fact that Su Huan existed. He let me forget the despair and agony when I first broke up with Su Huan and got together with him. I'm clear that we don't have a future together, but I feel that even if we break up one day, I already got what I wanted. What do you think… isn't this kind of mentality messed up? Isn't it very filthy?"
Song Yao laughed weakly and asked Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian.
Bai Xiaonian didn't say anything.
Lin Nuan also didn't say anything…
If it were Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian from three or four years ago, maybe they would nod and try hard to convince Song Yao to return on the right path.
But at that age, nobody was a clean sheet of white paper anymore, but they also were unable to see through society like their seniors who have been in the professional world and gone enough through trial and error to discern the fine line between water and land.
Song Yao was the first to be unable to handle it all amongst the three of them. Since Song Yao's achievements were higher than Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian's, she also had to handle more pressure and injustice.
They already felt the weight on their shoulders when they were working hard to protect the radio station as their fields to reap, let alone Song Yao who had to face the whole entertainment industry.
It's not like Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian didn't have the anxiety of a twenty-six or twenty-seven-year-old.
As long as someone was around the age of twenty-six to twenty-seven, who wouldn't want to make a career for themselves?
Lin Nuan suddenly thought of Fu Huai'an.
The reason she could preserve herself and not give in because of what lay ahead was probably that, as she said, she just hadn't met the man who had enough charm to conquer her.
She thought, if the chief in charge of their radio station switched from Lee Zhiguo to Fu Huai'an, she would probably be here telling her friends that she was also one of the people who accepted the unspoken rules.
Nobody was that virtuous, nobody was that filthy either. Devotion was just possible when temptation wasn't strong enough.
Song Yao's words haunted her ears… Three days and that person let her forget Su Huan even existed, forget the despair and agony when she first broke up with Su Huan.
Then should she agree to Fu Huai'an to give it a try? Maybe it could even successfully get rid of Wen Moshen's shadow in her heart and give it a rebirth? After all, when she was with Fu Huai'an, the agony in her heart when she thought of Wen Moshen wouldn't come out by itself.
Thinking of that, Lin Nuan's heart skipped a beat.
In the past, Bai Xiaonian did convince Lin Nuan that the best cure for heartbreak was to enter another relationship. Lin Nuan, however. never even thought about it, since she felt it was a very despicable thing to do…
But when the person in question was Fu Huai'an, it didn't seem to be that unacceptable.
Lin Nuan didn't touch a drop of wine that day. She was sober yet seemingly drunk at the same time - the thoughts in her head were left in a mess.
Song Yao's body was drunk, but her head was disturbingly clear.
Lin Nuan and Bai Xiaonian only knew until the end that Song Yao's wounds were from the man's fiance asking someone to do it.
