I Refuse to Be a Supporting Character
Chapter 114: The Sea of Flowers (1)
Gu Jin sat in the back seat while the driver escorted him to the party. On the way, he wonders if the culprit behind the shadow has been found.
The last meeting of the Literary Institute was held at KTV. Although not many people, the atmosphere was very warm. The microphone was passed on to several people, who were singing songs that Gu Jin was unfamiliar with.
Young men and women had endless energy, so even though Gu Jin was unable to understand what they were singing, he would definitely be infected by their enthusiasm.
After all, the people who shared this same boat would soon be separated.
Not wanting to be invited to sing, Gu Jin deliberately sat in the corner.
“You want to drink what?” Tong Lin came and gave him a bottle of juice.
“Thank you.” Gu Jin received the bottle.
“I'm sorry about what happened earlier,” Gu Jin unscrewed the bottle but didn't drink it. For a moment, she felt confused, but then she decided to explain to him: “My plan about the magazine company was beyond my own will. I'm afraid I'll put your career on hold, so we'd better cancel our partnership.”
After the pause, he added: “I just want to say, thank you for your invitation.”
Ever since Gu Jin mentioned this topic on the phone a few days ago, Tong Lin was not surprised.
“Don't mind, it's your choice,” he said with an understanding smile. “But Gu Jin, I believe in your abilities. If you don't mind, I have a new offer. I hope you can reconsider.”
“We can divide the magazine into two different departments. You and I are the principle leaders in our respective fields.” He looked at it gently and added, “You know, this will increase our competitiveness.”
Gu Jin lowered his gaze and thought about it. After a while, he apologized and said, “Please give me two days to think about it.”
Tong Lin nodded.
After the party, Gu Jin refused Tong Lin's offer to send her home.
He did not want to return to Mu Mingcheng's villa, so he sent him a message saying he was staying at the school dormitory tonight. Mu Mingcheng's objection was ignored as he quickly closed his phone.
At the other end of the queue, Mu Mingcheng stared at the specially selected clothes on the bed for a moment, then threw away the phone that beeped to the side.
It was already dark by the time Gu Jin arrived at school. As Gu Jin approached the dormitory building, he saw a group of people crowding at the entrance.
“I'm very envious.”
“It's like direct from a fairy tale.”
“I want to know which woman is very lucky.”
“If a handsome rich man does this for me, I will be ready to marry him anytime.” One of the girls held her hand to her chest as she stared longingly.
“Stop fantasizing!” his friends tease him when they laugh.
Seeing the situation, Gu Jin grew even more curious. He quickened his pace to have a better view of the lively scene.
He approached.
Right at the entrance of the dorm building was a beautiful red rose.
The entrance of the dormitory is decorated with a sea of romantic roses.
Interspersed within the sea of flowers was a heart-shaped candle.
It can be seen that this is an arrangement for one's confession.
Upon seeing her appearance, Gu Jin sighed. No wonder these girls are so excited. A few years ago, when she was young, she would have been so happy if a man confessed to her like that.
Unfortunately, behind her young appearance was an adult woman who was having social difficulties; she had long forgotten her feelings when she was a teenager.
Now that she saw this kind of trick in seducing a girl, other than sighing about her past youth, there was no other turmoil in her heart.
After sighing, he raised his gaze, but his expression changed as soon as he looked up.
In front of the door, a handsome man walked through a sea of red flowers. He gently and affectionately stared at his figure among the crowd.
