The look in Tang Jinyan's eyes made Li Juli's heart skip a beat, but she didn't flinch. She still put the phone in his hand and whispered, "I'm sorry … If you want to vent … you can come at me.
You can hit me, scold me … you can do that too.
I'm sorry. "
The others also whispered, "I'm sorry."
Tang Jinyan gasped violently. The heartache and self-blame in Li Juli's eyes made him calm down a little. He had done so much to help them out, but he couldn't suppress his anger and hurt them. What was this?
Was he slapping himself in the face?
He closed his eyes and looked up in silence for a long time. Then, he put the phone back in his pocket and said lightly, "It's none of your business.
Don't say sorry to anyone in the future. "
Li Juli said carefully, "Actually … if you go there now, you might be able to salvage the situation …"
Tang Jinyan shook his head. "No. She's right.
She's right. There are too many problems that we can't erase. This incident is just the fuse that has caused the things that we have been suppressing to erupt.
Let's just leave it at that. I once sinned against her father. It's natural for him to hate me. It's just retribution. Now that Eun-thi is free, it's a good thing for her. "
Park Ji-yeon covered her mouth and sobbed again. "I'm sorry …"
"I told you not to mention this word!" Tang Jinyan said irritably and strode into the ward.
Everyone followed him in and sat silently around Park Soyeon.
Park Soyeon was lying on the hospital bed. Her lips were pale and her face was covered with gauze. She looked bruised and battered. Even though she was in a coma after the operation, she still frowned. No one knew if it was because of the pain or because she was still facing the overwhelming attacks in her dream.
Tang Jinyan sat on the edge of the bed and watched for a while. Then, he got up and walked to the window. He looked at the rain outside for a long time. Finally, he took out his phone and made several calls.
"Zesheng, draw up a strategy and route for me. Within two days, I want to see Liu Huaying and her sister in the most well-equipped training room in Cool City."
"Eun-suk, bring some people and break the legs of S * M Company's artists.
Clean your hands and slowly find an opportunity. Well, you'll be in charge of this for the time being.
Didn't S * M Company's EXO's debut two or three months ago?
The new group might be easier to deal with.
That's right, I'm looking for trouble with the S * M company. You decide which one is more convenient to beat up. "
"Long Ya, D Society is looking for trouble with a DSP for me. You can do whatever you want … Is there no one?
I don't believe that there is nothing going on under the DSP. I will ask Old Six Bai to cooperate with you. "
"Second Brother … Yes, it's me.
I'll have to trouble you to get some airplanes from the Busan guy and the Vietnamese guy's deal. If the other party has any problems, tell him to look for me.
Yes, that's right. I'm looking for trouble with them. I'll take responsibility for it.
Okay, I wish you all the best, Second Brother. "
"Hello, General Zhang. Yes, it's me. Hehe … I'm looking for an officer named Liu. I'm not promoting him, I'm kicking him out. It's best if he's in the toilet … Well, I know it's not easy. Sorry to trouble you … I'll give you a satisfactory gift."
"Hello, it's me … Well, there might be some trouble in the near future. Please help me cover it up.
Yes … Well, don't worry. It won't affect you. Okay … Thank you. I'll visit you another day. "
After hanging up the phone, Tang Jinyan turned around. There was still a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
T-ara's sisters pursed their lips. Their expressions were complicated.
They had personally heard a series of things that went against the law, but no one felt that it was wrong.
Tang Jinyan didn't go anywhere that day. He sat in the ward motionlessly. He seemed to be accompanying Park Soyeon, but everyone could see that something was wrong with him.
His eyes were sometimes unfocused, sometimes painful, and sometimes crazy. He exuded an extremely dangerous aura that made the doctors and nurses shudder.
T-ara's sisters didn't seem to feel it at all. They took turns to accompany Tang Jinyan.
They had their own schedules and couldn't stay there all the time. They could only take turns.
At around seven o 'clock in the evening, Park Ji-yeon brought a lunch box to Tang Jinyan. She said softly, "OPPA, eat something."
Tang Jinyan didn't say a word.
Park Ji-yeon burst into tears and sobbed, "OPPA, don't be like this. You haven't said a word for half a day. You haven't eaten … You can hit me …"
Tang Jinyan's eyes moved. He looked at Park Ji-yeon's tear-stained face and sighed softly, "I'm just thinking about something. Do you really think I'm so weak that I can't eat because my girlfriend dumped me?"
Park Ji-yeon wiped her tears and said carefully, "Then you can think about it. I'll feed you, okay?"
Tang Jinyan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. "You … You're seducing me. Don't you know that?"
Park Ji-yeon blushed. "OPPA … It's not like that …"
Tang Jinyan said, "Then you're courting death. Don't you know that I'm in danger now?"
Park Ji-yeon lowered her head. "Juli, Oni said what we said. If OPPA wants to vent, the five of us won't be afraid."
Five … This word made Tang Jinyan's eyes waver again.
Yes, the strong T-ara team had a total of eight people. Now, one had rebelled, one was recuperating due to mental issues, and one was lying in front of him covered in wounds.
The only ones who could still appear on stage were the five of them who were mentally and physically exhausted …
"Give me the food, I'll eat it myself."
Tang Jinyan took the lunchbox and sighed. "You should eat and sleep well too. Don't leave us with only four people tomorrow …"
Park Ji-yeon said excitedly, "I can eat a lot. Don't worry, OPPA."
Tang Jinyan said calmly, "Little Eight isn't the only one with mental issues. Actually, you've been suffering from it since three years ago.
Isn't social media phobia a type of mental illness? "
Park Ji-yeon's expression froze. She bit her lower lip hard and said after a long time, "Yes."
Tang Jinyan said as he ate, "Go back and rest early after eating. The situation will change tonight."
Park Ji-yeon was stunned. She knew what he meant.
It turned out that he had helped far more than just the D Society incident. There would be other actions happening tonight.
"You … why are you so good to us …" Park Ji-yeon said in a daze. "We can't repay you."
Tang Jinyan's gaze fell on Park Soyeon on the bed. He said slowly, "There's no need for you to repay me. Because … this is my way of repaying you."
Park Ji-yeon hesitated for a long time. She was very confused. "We didn't do anything for OPPA …"
Tang Jinyan didn't answer.
Instead, he recalled the warm candlelight on the birthday cake that night. The gentle singing that sounded like a mother's whisper.
His gaze fell on Park Soyeon on the bed. He whispered to himself, "I said, I still want to hear you sing."
Although I paid a price, that's my own problem. It has nothing to do with you.
Even if everything were to be redone, the trajectory would still be the same.
