C78 Coward

Zeng Yiwen's only thought now was to leave this place. He felt that he was about to be unable to bear it.

Not long ago, he had thought that even if his confession to Huo Shaoqian had been rejected, the worst that could happen was for him to break off their relationship as master and disciple. After a while, he would forget about it. However, now that Huo Shaoqian had simply said that he liked gentle and beautiful girls, denying the possibility of falling in love with a man, he fell into despair.

"Shaoqian, I..." Zeng Yiwen wanted to say something but stopped himself. In any case, there was no hope. He wanted to directly confess, but he was rejected. He wanted to give up completely and give up on never seeing him again. After a long time, he would be able to forget about him.

However, when the words reached his mouth, he was unable to say them. Not only did he lose his courage, but he was also reluctant to part with him.

"Aren't you going to wash up and cook? I haven't eaten for several meals. Hurry up and go." Zeng Yiwen tried his best to control his emotions and calm himself down.

Huo Shaoqian could clearly sense that Zeng Yiwen was a little unhappy, and thought that his master was still angry about the hype between him and Chen Siyi, so he did not dare to continue speaking. His head still hurt, so he rubbed his temples, went into the bedroom, took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom.

The next time, he would never drink like this again. Other than them, only a few people in the company knew about him and Chen Siyi. Even his friends did not know. Yesterday, when Chen Siyi's news came out, the whole world thought he had been cheated on, and his friends were no exception. To comfort him, they asked him out for lunch and counseled him.

He was so drunk he didn't even know how he got home.

Zeng Yiwen heard the sound of the bathroom door being closed, turned around and walked towards the entrance. After changing his shoes, he opened the door and walked out.

He was the only person he had ever liked in his nearly thirty years of life. He had once been Huo Shaoqian's mentor. He thought that he wouldn't be a coward in front of this brat, but in the face of love, he was still a coward.

Getting into the elevator, Zeng Yiwen looked at the numbers that were constantly jumping up. His many years of feelings for Huo Shaoqian would probably rot in his stomach.

He knew better than ever that he did not have the ability to accept Huo Shaoqian's rejection. The moment he opened his mouth, he would lose it.

It would be even more painful than gouging out his heart if he had to give up on a relationship that had lasted for so many years.

He tried his best to recall the reason why he fell in love with Huo Shaoqian.

But after thinking about it for a while, all he could remember was that when the kid first came to the Golden Year as an intern, he was a little silly. All the other interns were competing with each other, competing with each other, trying to be the most brilliant one among them, and then being put in an important position by the company with a bright future.

At that time, Huo Shaoqian's performance was too ordinary, without any special characteristics, but that didn't mean that he didn't make progress. He also tried very hard to ask his mentor if he didn't understand, and if he didn't, he practiced a few more times. In fact, Zeng Yiwen, who had just started working in the Golden Year at that time, was also very young, only four or five years older than Huo Shaoqian. He was a little impatient and often lost his temper in front of the trainees, but no matter how bad his temper was, Huo Shaoqian would always be happy, and that was how his temper was worn down. Later on, Huo Shaoqian became his assistant and called him master. When he continued to study by his side, he took even more care of him. From home to the office, Huo Shaoqian helped to clean up, took care of his three meals a day, and the studio was his right-hand assistant.

Zeng Yiwen had no family, but this person brought him the warmth of home.

He fell in love with Huo Shaoqian not because of a momentary feeling, nor because he had discovered something good about him, but because this person had been infiltrating his life and heart bit by bit over the years.

Why did he fall in love? Why did he fall in love? There was no reason, and there was no need for a reason.

It was because this man had been in his heart for too long. He had become a part of his life. That was why he couldn't give up.

However, he had to let go of the love that he couldn't get.

It had been more than ten minutes since Huo Shaoqian came out of the bathroom. He wiped his hair with a towel as he walked out of the bedroom.

"Master!" As soon as he entered the living room, he called out. He thought that the man would continue to watch TV in the living room, but there was no one there.

So he went to the bedroom next door. In the past, when Zeng Yiwen came to his place, if he did not go back at night, he would sleep next door, but there was still no one there.

"Master." He called out again, but still no one answered him, so he ran to the hall and found that Zeng Yiwen's shoes were gone, and only the slippers he had been wearing were left at the door.

"Master is leaving, why didn't he even say goodbye?" Huo Shaoqian quickly went back to his room to get his phone and call Zeng Yiwen.

When Zeng Yiwen's phone rang, he was driving and did not pick up.

However, if he did not pick up, that brat would not give up and kept calling.

The ringtone of his phone made him feel restless. He could only park his car by the side of the road and pick up the phone. Huo Shaoqian's questioning voice immediately came from the other end of the line, "Master, didn't you tell me to cook for you? When I was taking a bath, I was thinking about what to cook for you in the afternoon, but when I came out of the bathroom, there was no one there. Why didn't you tell me you were leaving?"

"I was going to call you when you were almost out of the shower, but I didn't expect you to be so quick. So I won't be joining you for lunch." Zeng Yiwen was about to hang up after saying that.

Huo Shaoqian still felt that something was wrong. Zeng Yiwen's voice on the phone was too cold. Even when the two of them had just met, Zeng Yiwen had never felt this annoyed with him, "Master, are you still angry with me?"

Zeng Yiwen was annoyed, "This kind of hype is common in the entertainment industry. I don't need to be angry with you. If I were really angry, I would have been angry with you a long time ago. I really have something to do."

"Alright then." Zeng Yiwen's voice suddenly became impatient. It seemed that he really had an urgent matter and did not have time to chat with him, "Then be careful on the way, Master."

He could only hang up.

Zeng Yiwen drove around the road a few times. He realized that other than his company and home, he really didn't have anywhere else to go.

In the end, he had no choice but to return to the office and shut himself in his office. He smoked one cigarette after another until the pack of cigarettes was empty. Only then did he curl up on the sofa and fall asleep, hoping that when he woke up, nothing would happen, or that he would forget what Huo Shaoqian had said.

Zeng Yiwen had been in a daze, as if he had not fallen asleep, and when he was awakened by a knock on the door, his back ached.

The one who knocked on the door was most likely the trainee in the rehearsal room next door who knew that he had returned.

He stood up from the sofa, stretched, and stretched his aching body.

He looked at the time. It was only one o'clock in the afternoon, and he had only slept for an hour.

He scratched his messy hair and opened the door.

Outside the door, Huo Shaoqian appeared with the cloth bag in his hand. With a smile on his face, he said, "Master, I knew you were at the company. The security guard downstairs assured me that you weren't there and wouldn't let me in. Fortunately, I met an acquaintance and was brought in."
