chasing and chasing

The appearance of Tian Jungkook seemed to push a switch for Kim Taehyung's memory, the past that he didn't want to recall broke free from the memory box, and flooded into his mind like crazy.

After tossing and turning all night, when he closed his eyes, Wada Jungkook's past was vividly remembered.

He had no choice but to open his eyes and stare sideways at the thousands of lights outside the window.

Even at midnight, the city is still bustling.The starlight can't match the neon lights, and the insects can only be covered by the noise. This is the night of the city.

Ambilight, busy traffic.

How many sleepless people like him are there in the high-rise buildings that are lit all night?

Unable to sleep peacefully, eyes open until dawn.

It would be nice if there was no reunion, this night would not be so difficult.

I didn't fall asleep until close to five o'clock, and when I opened my eyes, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

Kim Taehyung is very glad that he didn't have a job today, otherwise he might have passed out at the event.

As soon as he sat up in bed, his phone rang.

The manager's familiar voice rang on the other end of the phone: "Are you at home? I'm on my way to your house now, and I have something to tell you."

Kim Taehyung yawned: "I slept late yesterday, and I just woke up now. When you come over, bring me something to eat."

When the doorbell rang, Kim Taehyung had just finished washing. He changed into his home clothes, wiped his half-wet hair with a towel with one hand, and walked towards the door with his slippers on.

As soon as Zheng Haoxi opened the door, he felt the beauty crit of his artist.

Originally, he wanted to nag him a few words about going to bed late, but when he saw his face that was too good-looking even without makeup, he swallowed those words back automatically.

Good-looking people are always easier to be tolerated.

Zheng Haoxi turned into a nanny, and arranged the packed food on the table one by one: "I brought you the rice, eat it quickly."

Kim Taehyung sat down at the dining table, started to eat his first meal of the day, and asked while eating, "Brother said on the phone that there is something to talk about, what is it?"

Zheng Haoxi pondered for a long time before opening his mouth: "I told you, don't be intimidated, I think...a high-level person in the Tian Group might want to rule you out."

The soup Kim Taehyung just drank almost spit out, "What the hell are you talking about?"

Chung Hoseok took out a contract from his bag and placed it in front of him.

"The Tian family sent it to me this morning, asking you to be their spokesperson, and the request is that you have to accompany them to dinner tonight."

Without even thinking about it, Kim Taehyung directly refused: "I won't go."

"This is the Tian Group. You pushed it without hesitation? In fact, the unspoken rules I just mentioned are just guesswork. Maybe that person is just your fan and wants to meet you through this opportunity."

"As long as it's an advertisement endorsement under Tian's banner, I won't accept any of it."

Zheng Haoxi was puzzled: "Tian's endorsement is so much sought after by many people in the industry. If you accept this, your popularity will be raised several levels."

"Could it be..." He seemed to have figured something out suddenly, and changed the subject: "Is there someone you know in the Tian family?"

Kim Taehyung bowed his head without saying a word and took several sips of soup.

Seeing his obvious default behavior, Zheng Haoxi probably guessed what was going on.He stood up and said: "I see, I will refuse for you on Tian's side. I will leave later if I have something to do. You should rest at home and don't forget the magazine cover shoot tomorrow."

Zheng Haoxi left after finishing speaking, but he didn't take away the contract that is now a waste paper.

At first, Kim Taehyung wanted to throw it directly into the trash can, but after hesitating for a moment, he opened it and read it.

A contract that is entirely based on his interests, the endorsement fee is as high as eight figures, and there is no need to pay any fees for breaking the contract.

Tian Zhengguo is the only high-level person who has the right to formulate such an unequal contract.

He didn't know what Tian Zhengguo was planning, spending tens of millions to buy him a meal?

Too much money to burn!

Kim Taehyung didn't go to the dinner requested by Tian, ​​he didn't want to have anything to do with Tian Jungkook at all, of course the less interaction the better.

But Taehyung doesn't think so.

Even knowing that Kim Taehyung rejected his contract, he still went to the restaurant he made an appointment with.

I just want to bet on whether he will soften his heart.

In the two hours of waiting in the restaurant, I experienced countless expectations and disappointments.All kinds of people pushed the door in, except for Kim Taehyung.

Tian Jungkook suddenly thought: Did Kim Taehyung have the same feeling when he was waiting for him before?

It was so cruel to watch my hopes shattered again and again.

Now it's his turn, and it's retribution.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after all, Tian Zhengguo did not wait for the person he wanted to wait for.

He left the restaurant and drove to Mingdu Community.

That's the neighborhood where Kim Taehyung lives, he found out from Kim's mother.For the convenience of going in and out, he also bought a house here, but he doesn't live here, he just came here to meet Kim Taehyung.

He lives on the 12th floor. Tian Zhengguo can only see a little bit of his balcony from downstairs, but he still comes every day and waits until the lights in his room go out before leaving.

Occasionally if you are lucky, you will see Kim Taehyung watching the scenery from the balcony.He would stretch, put his hands on his cheeks in a daze, or find the best angle to take a selfie.

Such a vivid Kim Taehyung always makes his heart beat and accompanied by heartache.

He seemed to be doing well, so good that he didn't dare to disturb him easily.

After finally plucking up the courage to send him a cooperation invitation, trying to narrow the distance between the two, the result was an unsurprising failure.

Tian Jungkook leaned halfway against the car door, with his hands hanging down, the cigarette butts at his fingertips flickering on and off.

He has no addiction to cigarettes, and usually hardly smokes, but after meeting Kim Taehyung, he makes an exception again and again, if the depression in his heart doesn't dissipate with the smoke, it will drive him crazy.

Kim Taehyung may have gone to bed early, the lights at home have been turned off.Tian Jungkook looked up in the direction of his house, planning to leave after the cigarette in his hand was lit.

But tonight is bound to be different.

Before he could leave, he was caught.

"Ta... Jungkook?"

Hearing that familiar voice, Tian Jungkook turned around stiffly like a robot, he thought someone who had fallen asleep was standing not far behind him, looking at him in surprise with a bag of snacks.

"What a coincidence! I'm here... for a walk, yes, for a walk."

Tian Zhengguo regretted it the second he said it. No fool would believe such a lame reason.

Sure enough, Kim Taehyung directly guessed the reason: "My mother told you that I live here?"

Although it was a question sentence, he said it very firmly.

Seeing that Tian Jungkook didn't answer, he went on to say: "If you are looking for me for endorsement, then go back, I won't accept."

"why do not you answer?"

"The endorsement fee is too high, the price you offered is twice my current net worth!"

Hearing that he didn't want to avoid himself, Tian Zhengguo's frown relaxed, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "My mother knows that Tian's is going to ask you to be a spokesperson, and if the fee is low, she will beat me up. "

Kim Taehyung was speechless, it was because of his bad family relationship, unless his parents turned against each other, they would never be able to completely sever contact.

Even, in front of both parents, they have to make a false impression that they have a good relationship.

Kim Taehyung was suddenly a little curious, what would the two of them have become if they hadn't been so greedy in the beginning and just kept their position as friends?

It will definitely be better than the current stranger who is awkward in the same space.

Not wanting to have any extra involvement with him, Kim Taehyung decided to make it clear what he had to say today, and from now on, they will be separated from each other and will not disturb each other.

"I'm doing well now, with a successful career and a good life."

"If you feel guilty and want to make up for me because of what happened in the past, you don't have to. Not seeing you again is the best way to make up for me."

"And if you are upset because I used to pester you often, then I apologize to you now, and I promise that this situation will never happen again in the future."

Talking left and right is just trying to draw a clear line.

Tian Jungkook took a step forward, walked towards him at a leisurely pace, and stood still only one step away from him.

The street lamp was behind him, he was standing with his backlight, Kim Taehyung couldn't see his expression clearly at this time.

"You want to leave me alone, I'm afraid I can't, because

—I'm chasing you. "
