Ordinary people can also be the protagonist in a comic strip

"Wow, this is such a desolate place."

Zhenzhu's voice sounded with emotion.

-

After getting off the tram.

The two of them took a bus for an hour and arrived in the suburbs, in a very remote area deep in the mountains and forests.

Just by standing on the side of the road and looking at the mountain area, Zhenzhu can feel the full primitive atmosphere.

Lorraine pointed to a place.

"There's an abandoned manor over there. If you practice singing there, even if you turn up the volume of your speakers, no one will complain to you."

"real or fake?"

"Don't worry. I have basically figured out all the areas within a hundred kilometers of this city. I even know exactly where there are a few Kuns."

"This abandoned manor in the deep mountains and forests always feels a bit like a horror movie. Aren't there any ghosts in it?"

"A three-star female executive of an evil organization is afraid of ghosts???"

Lorraine found it funny.

But Zhenzhu was serious. She even hugged Luolin's waist in fear, and snuggled up to Luolin, saying in a warning tone, "You, you, you...if you really dare to bring Zhenzhu to that scary place, you must take responsibility to protect Zhenzhu. Otherwise, I will never forgive you!"

"No, buddy, are you really afraid of ghosts?"

"Woo, ghosts and such, aren't they scary enough?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about whether there is anything there or not. It's still broad daylight now. What are you afraid of?"

"But it has been raining for the past few days. Even during the day, it is gloomy and cloudy."

"You are not alone. I am always by your side. What is there to be afraid of? Even the strongest ghosts can't withstand the purification of TNT, right?"

"You are really amazing. You brought Zhenzhu to such a weird place. Did you do it on purpose?"

"On purpose? Why?"

"Also, also, also..., it's because I want to scare Zhenzhu, so that..., I will be more dependent on you or something like that."

Talking and talking.

Zhenzhu couldn't help but blush, thinking that this man actually chose such a cunning method just to get closer to her.

but……

Although she was indeed very scared, she would indeed become more dependent on him.

Hate it, all men are bad guys.

He just bullies girls every day.

-

Just when Zhenzhu was daydreaming.

Lorraine is innocent.

"Hey, Zhenzhu, we agreed beforehand that you wanted to find a better place to practice singing, so I specially chose this Feng Shui treasured place. No one will disturb you, and you can sing to your heart's content. There's no problem with the loudspeakers. Don't be ungrateful."

"Oh, okay, okay, Zhenzhu knows, you are so long-winded."

"But you are actually afraid of ghosts, haha."

"Um, that's too much, Lorraine, you're still laughing at me!"

"Sorry, sorry, it's rare to see such a special side of you, Zhenzhu. You're quite cute."

"you you you……"

Zhenzhu was suddenly praised for being cute, and she felt embarrassed and angry.

-

"let's go."

"Hey, wait for me."

Lorraine, holding an umbrella, walked into the heavy rain. Zhenzhu, who was also holding an umbrella, came straight to him and held the same umbrella with him.

Lorraine wondered, "Don't you have an umbrella yourself?"

"In this deep forest, I think it would be safer to share an umbrella."

"Safety?"

"Wouldn't it be terrible if I got lost?"

“Are you a child???”

Lorraine couldn't laugh or cry.

However, seeing her shoulders trembling slightly as she approached him, Lorraine knew that she was really afraid of getting lost.

Lorraine began to regret bringing her to this place.

Maybe it would be better to just go to a KTV.

"Give me the umbrella. You won't need it anyway. Leave it here so you don't have to carry it with you all the time."

"Oh, ah, oh."

After handing over the umbrella, Zhenzhu also understood what Lorraine meant.

Now I felt completely at ease walking under the same umbrella with Lorraine.

The cold wind from the rain made her hug Lorraine's waist again and snuggle up to him as much as possible to avoid getting wet by the raindrops on the edge of the umbrella.

Seeing this, Lorraine didn't say anything.

-

-

at last.

When the two came to the abandoned manor deep in the mountains and old forests, in the spacious hall on the first floor, Lorraine took out a lot of professional singing equipment and began to teach Zhenzhu to sing diligently.

"This one needs to be adjusted down a bit."

"No, no, that's not how it's sung in this place."

"You need to express the charm of the lyrics in this passage. I want you to sing, not read from a script."

……

however.

Although Lorraine taught very seriously, Zhenzhu, who had never received such professional guidance, was, as expected, very clumsy. Often, many small and insignificant problems required Lorraine to explain them more than ten times before she could barely understand and correct them.

It took several hours.

Lorraine was extremely tired, and Zhenzhu's heart was almost broken.

Both of them were so tired that they sat on the steps under the eaves at the door, looking at the mountains and forests in front of them in the heavy rain, feeling filled with emotion.

Zhenzhu felt very sorry and couldn't help but ask with some disappointment.

"Lorraine, I'm sorry, am I really that stupid?"

"Well, this..."

"In fact, I know that I am a terrible singer. I always think that the lyrics I write are good, but I can never get recognition from others. Even my mother... thinks that I am not suitable for singing."

"To be honest, it really sucks."

"Woo woo, is this really the case!!!"

Zhenzhu's mentality was completely blown away.

Tears as big as beans kept flowing down.

She cried.

"Then am I really not suited to singing? Is it really impossible to realize the dream that I have been pursuing since I was a child? Zhenzhu..., is it really impossible to become an idol?"

"Cheer up, Zhenzhu. You have to know that no one can succeed easily. People without talent also have the right to pursue their dreams, but this also means that they need to work harder and endure more criticism and denial than those with talent."

"Lorraine..."

"True success is always accumulated step by step. When you really feel like you can't hold on any longer, you might as well look back. You have already endured too many difficult days. If you give up now, all your previous efforts and persistence will be in vain. - Giving up is always the easiest, only persistence is the most difficult. So you see, there are always only a few really popular idols and superstars in this world. Most people can't hold on any longer and give up, but a few people persist, so they succeed and become world-famous idols and superstars."

"But can I really do it?"

"If you don't try, how do you know it won't work?"

Lorraine turned his head to look at Zhenzhu beside him and smiled.

Zhenzhu was touched and her eyes became moist.

"But I've tried it countless times, and all failed..."

"Then try again."

"Or failed?"

"Then keep trying, keep trying until you succeed. You are still so young, you have plenty of time to fight and make mistakes. Since you are determined that this is the most important dream in your life, then as long as you can achieve it, no matter how hard or tiring it is, what does it matter?"

"I'm afraid I can't hold on, Lorraine, can you help me?"

"Aren't I already helping you, Miss Zhenzhu?"

"What happens next?"

"Um, this..."

"Will you always help me? Stay by Zhenzhu's side like you do now, accompany me, encourage me, and inspire me, until the day I truly realize my dream in life?"

"I don't know, and I can't promise you anything, but when you need me, I will come as soon as possible. Zhenzhu, in fact, for me, no matter whether you can realize your dreams in the future, I only have one wish, that is, I hope you can be safe and healthy, live well, and enjoy your life. This is enough. Whether you succeed or fail, as long as you are still alive, those experiences will become a part of your wonderful life, become an important memory, and drive you to move forward."

Lorraine spoke a lot in a very eloquent manner.

But what Zhenzhu heard in her heart from beginning to end was probably just one sentence, which was "When you need me, I will come as soon as possible."

Deeply intoxicated by the feeling of being cared for and concerned, Zhenzhu took his arm and leaned her head on his shoulder.

She at this moment.

With an endlessly sweet smile on her face, perhaps, this was the answer she most wanted to hear in her heart.

Thank you, Lorraine.

[As long as you are here, even the dream of being an idol that was once so far away will become reality. 】

【Zhenzhu also feels that she will succeed one day.】

【The future is really exciting. 】

【Hey~】
