Chapter 554: Your Chocolate is Expired, It Tastes Like Traditional Chinese Medicine
Xu Jiayang seemed to be really heartbroken, so she didn’t disturb him.
Xu Jiayang continued, "The first time I met her was in my senior year, and she was a freshman.
We were in the same college, but I was in the director program, and she was in acting.
One night I was late coming back from a classmates’ gathering, and on the way, I saw her surrounded by several thugs, so I stepped forward and saved her.
On the way back to her dorm, she was very scared and kept close to me.
I just felt that she was too vulnerable and needed protection, and naturally, we came together.
Our relationship developed smoothly; she was really the kind of girl who depended on others, very reliant on me.
By my senior year, I had already started interning outside and was a director with a bit of fame in the industry, seldom returning to campus.
Every time I came back, she would happily come to find me.
Back then, our relationship was really good, but gradually, I started hearing rumors that she had a loose lifestyle.
Leng Yan, especially, couldn’t stand the sight of her and kept telling me to break up with her.
I asked her about it, and she said her classmates were jealous, so they made up stories.
Maybe love really blinded me, I fucking believed it all!
I even argued with Leng Yan a few times over her!"
As Xu Jiayang spoke, he guzzled down a few more gulps of beer.
"Later, I graduated, and my works got better and more famous, and we saw each other even less, but we were always in contact by phone.
Every time I called her, she’d say she missed me and asked me to film a movie for her, so we could see each other every day.
How stupid I was back then, I couldn’t hear that she was with me to get famous; I still fucking thought it was true love and felt that she really missed me."
After downing another bottle of booze, Xia Weibao saw that his face was all flushed.
But seeing him so heartbroken, she did not stop him.
She just gave him a pill, "Director Xu, take this first."
"Oh, thanks."
Without thinking, Xu Jiayang took the pill and threw it into his mouth.
Then he gulped down a few more mouthfuls of beer.
After finishing, he burped and then looked to Xia Weibao.
"What did you just give me to eat?"
Xia Weibao, "..."
You don’t know what I gave you and you just ate it?
If I had drugged you, would you be a little more cautious, Director Xu? In a palace drama, you would survive only half an episode, you know.
"Nothing much, chocolate beans, for you to chase the liquor."
"Oh, got more? Give me some more."
Xia Weibao thought for a moment, then brought out a bottle, "This is all I have on me."
Xu Jiayang didn’t stand on ceremony and chewed them all up.
"Your chocolate tastes a bit strange, has a herbal medicine flavor, might be expired."
After saying that, he guzzled a few more mouthfuls and burped.
"Where was I?"
"You were saying that you became famous for making movies, and then Chu Ying wanted to be in your film."
"Oh, right. She wanted to be in my film, but at that time she hadn’t graduated yet, with no experience at all. I couldn’t destroy my own movie for her, right?
But listening to her everyday saying she missed me, wanted to film with me, I even abandoned my principles.
I was thinking of writing her a movie once she officially debuted, would even take the rumors of under-the-table deals as truth!
But she fucking did this to me!"
He said as he drank a few more mouthfuls.
"That time my movie won an award, the Hollywood’s best director award!
This is my greatest achievement, and that night I was so happy, celebrating with her.
Then I got drunk, and the next day when I woke up, I was in bed with her."
