Qiao Ji finally chose to go to the appointment.

The headquarters of Tianxing Entertainment is located in the busiest part of the city center. The 28-story building is not the tallest.

When Qiao Ji was brought into the office, Lin Mo was reading a document and didn't look up when he heard the sound, as if he didn't know that someone had come in.

Although Qiao Ji had been prepared, he still couldn't sit still after being left in the air for an hour.

"Boss Lin asked me to come, just want me to watch you review the documents?"

Lin Mo signed the document slowly, and then looked up at Qiao Ji with cold eyes, as if he was examining something.Qiao Ji's momentum was not at all inferior, and he looked back at him tit for tat.

After a while, Lin Mo held up the document he just signed: "Do you know what this is?"

This unreasonable act of playing cards made Qiao Ji stunned.

Lin Mo kindly explained to him: "As long as this document leaves this office, the movie "Hunting" will not have any chance of being released in theaters."

Qiao Ji's eyes widened all of a sudden: "What do you mean!"

"Is it because you really don't understand, or I didn't say it clearly enough?" Lin Mo's tone remained flat, "Then let me put it this way, not only will "Hunting" not be screened publicly, but you will not receive any more jobs." , is that clear enough?"

"You want to block me?"

"if not?"

Qiao Ji clenched his fist subconsciously, trying to calm himself down: "Why? Just because I like Lin Juan?"

"That's right." Lin Mo fiddled with the pen in his hand, "I thought I had already warned you."

"...Even so, I won't give up."

Lin Mo smiled: "Oh? What won't you give up? Little family? Is it your career?"

"I won't give up on Lin Juan..." Qiao Ji gritted his teeth, "Nor..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

"Don't tell me there is always a way. What if you have to give up?" Lin Mo looked at him, "You said you liked him, but you couldn't convince me how much you liked him."

Qiao Ji couldn't help it: "Can I convince you if I give up my career?"

"Why not?" Lin Mo said, "You should already know, right? An autistic patient like Xiaojuan cannot live independently and needs someone to accompany and take care of him for a long time. If you give up your career, wouldn't it just happen that you can stay with him all the time?"

Joe was silent.

Lin Mo's gaze was always sharp.He didn't urge, he was waiting for the young man to make a choice.

In other words, he was waiting for Qiao Ji to give up.

"Actually, I have thought about it." What Qiao sent surprised Lin Mo, "I know...he needs someone to be by his side all the time, and he needs a lot of patience, but he may never respond. If I give up work, I will It was indeed a good choice to be with him.”

Lin Mo was waiting for him to continue.

"Although I'm not reconciled, but now, the person who is with him does not have to be me. Maybe I will always be with him, and there will always be a day when he will become unable to leave me. But at that time, I It may not be possible to protect him anymore.

"I want to improve and become stronger. Whether it's ability, material, connections, money or anything else, I hope that I can be strong enough to let him live without worry... Even without your protection, or even without me, he can still live well."

Lin Mo looked at the young man in front of him and didn't speak for a long time.

It wasn't until Qiao Ji's fearless aura swelled with excitement that he was about to dissipate that he heard him snort.

"It sounds nice."

Qiao Ji let out a sigh of relief and did not refute.He didn't think he could persuade Lin Mo at first, but he just couldn't hold back for a while.

This kind of words, which are similar to confession, suddenly said to his sweetheart's brother, he was also very embarrassed.

The silence lasted for a long time in this unclear atmosphere, and finally Lin Mo spoke again: "This is the entertainment industry. If you continue to hang out, your life will be better, and the attention will increase. If Xiaojuan follows you Together, what will others think of you? What will they think of him? Are you sure this can protect him?"

"Then I will try my best to reach a height where I will not be affected by these things."

"Oh? A height that won't be affected? What kind of height is that?" Lin Mo looked disdainful.

Qiao Ji felt that he seemed to have grasped something: "If I can win the Star Award for Best Actor, will I be able to be with him?"

"I didn't say that." Lin Mo denied without thinking.

Qiao Ji pretended not to hear it, and took a step forward: "I will definitely get it!"

"I must get it? How long is that? A lifetime?"

Qiao Ji knew that this was a radical method.But he knew that this might be the only chance Lin Mo gave him.If he shrinks back here, he will never be recognized by Lin Mo again.

"Three years." So, he made his own promise, "In three years, I will definitely get that award."

Lin Mo looked at the fearless young man in front of him.

"Let's talk about it when you get it. Before that, stay away from him."

"It's not fair!" Qiao Ji blurted out, and when he met Lin Mo's cold gaze, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

His reaction seemed to amuse Lin Mo, so after being silent for a long time, boss Lin mercifully sent Joe a sweet treat: "Every Wednesday night at seven o'clock, Qi Qing will accompany Xiaojuan here. A walk in a small park nearby."

Qiao Ji didn't really feel the pressure on himself until he walked out of the gate of Tianxing Entertainment.

His hands still trembled after high tension, and he tried twice before he dialed Yin Nan's number accurately.

Yin Nan quickly connected the phone: "Are you in Tianxing?"

Qiao Ji was a little surprised: "How do you know?"

"Yesterday the director told me that you seem to have offended Mr. Lin." Yin Nan's tone was very serious.

Qiao Ji laughed: "Yes, not only offended, but also badly offended."

Yin Nan was silent for a long time, but he still asked, "Because... Lin Juan?"

Qiao Ji didn't intend to hide it from him, and he knew that his performance was quite obvious, so he admitted openly at this time: "Yes."

Yin Nan had already had a premonition, and it wasn't a surprise to hear him admit it at this time, but he couldn't help but sigh: "Your challenge is too difficult."

"There are higher ones, do you want to know?"

"I don't want to know at all."

"It's okay if you don't know." Qiao Ji laughed, "I want to challenge for the Star Award."

"The one I know?"

Qiao Ji didn't answer, and continued to add: "Best Actor."

Yin Nan convinced: "It's quite difficult."

"Within three years." Qiao Ji said the last condition.

Yin Nan was silent.

Qiao Ji exhaled: "So, it's up to you."

It took a long time for Yin Nan to speak, with a confident smile in his tone: "As long as you have no problem, I have no problem."

"Of course. This is a major event in my life." Qiao Zhi paused, and then said, "Also, I would like to ask you to do me a favor...help me free up my time every Wednesday after five o'clock in the afternoon."

Lin Mo looked at his younger brother who came back from the film and television base, and felt a little aggrieved.

The young man looked a little agitated, circling back and forth by the window, although the noise would not get out of control, it could be seen that he was not happy.

"The film is finished, and the crew is about to withdraw. Didn't Xiaojuan always know?"

Lin Juan leaned against the window, not knowing what he was looking at, let alone whether he had listened to his words.

Lin Mo rubbed his head, and Lin Juan leaned towards him like a well-trained pet, but left quickly, turned around in place, and slowly walked back to the window.

Lin Mo walked over and looked out the window.Outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, there is a vast and small world, which is trampled underfoot.

"Brother didn't stay by your side all the time, will Xiaojuan be angry?"

He couldn't help asking a question, and after he asked it, he felt that it was a bit ridiculous for him to be scared just now.

As always, Lin Juan didn't answer, but he was inexplicably relieved.

"Xiaojuan...do you like him?"

Such questions will never be answered.

Lin Mo laughed at himself, not knowing what happened to him today.

——I hope that I can be strong enough to let him live without worries.

At that time, the self who made the choice probably thought so too, right?
