Mortal Desires

Chapter 17: Find someone

Views:

Tao Yue didn't want anyone to see this scene. She tried hard to restrain herself and forced herself to act as if nothing had happened in front of her friends, but she didn't feel indifferent deep down. She was different from Zhao San.

Zhao San's family is rich and well-connected. Her brother runs an agency and has many models, some of whom are famous. In order to invite these models, those agencies have a good relationship with her brother and naturally will not offend Zhao San for their own sake.

But she had no background and didn't want to drag her friends down, so she just swallowed her anger.

I originally wanted to vent my feelings after my friends left, but I didn't expect to be seen by Su Yi.

Tao Yue had only been in the company for three months and had never seen Su Yi before. She thought she was an employee. When she saw the tissue being handed over, she lowered her head and said in a deep voice, "Thank you."

With a trembling voice and crying, Su Yi didn't say much, but walked to her side, took a cup from the shelf, poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Tao Yue. Steam rose up, and white mist surrounded Tao Yue, making her face hot. Tao Yue wiped the corners of her eyes and loosened her tightly bitten lips. A faint smell of blood rushed into her throat. She wiped her lips with tissue paper, it was painful.

Su Yi said, "Drink something hot."

Her voice was very pleasant, clear and transparent, like the crispness and coolness of jade falling on a pearl plate. Tao Yue looked up at her and took a sip. Although it was warm water, it stimulated her lips and made them more painful. Tao Yue's face turned pale and she heard Su Yi ask her, "Did your place get taken?"

Tao Yue lowered her head, feeling humiliated again. Zhao San's cold words were like poisoned knives, each stabbing her in the deadly spot, causing her internal organs to ache. When she spoke, her voice was even more tense: "Yes, I was robbed."

She smiled bitterly: "Maybe ordinary people like us are really not suitable for this path."

No connections, no background. Even if you rush forward with passion, if you encounter a wall, your way will be blocked and all your previous efforts will be in vain. You will be unwilling to accept this and want to make a big fuss and fight for it again, but you will only get a chance to take the stage next time.

Next time, next timeā€¦

She wasn't sure if there would be a next time.

Su Yi said: "No one is born knowing what path is suitable for them." She looked at Tao Yue: "I only know that every path is walked out. Some people are confused all their lives, not knowing which path they should take, and you-" Su Yi paused: "You are already on the road."

Tao Yue raised her eyes, her rims were red, the Su Yi in her eyes was blurry, but she was clear in her heart. The grievances she suffered when she just graduated were even worse than they are now. There were countless unspoken rules, and the kind-hearted people she thought had ulterior motives towards her, and they looked down on her after they fell out, as if it was her honor to be liked by them.

At that time, she cried and made a fuss, but she would get up every time after crying. If she didn't have resources, she would save them. Even if it was a very small catwalk or a stage without money, she was willing to go on stage. After finally coming to S.K., she thought she could settle down, but she was hit hard.

What Zhao San did was like the only piece of driftwood that kept her afloat, the last straw that broke the camel's back, but Su Yi's words made her start to gather her strength again.

The strength to get up.

Tao Yue said: "Thank you, which department are you from?"

Su Yi said: "I am not from this company."
