Sister Mao listened to Xin YA’s low growl. She did not know if it was despair or self-blame for her incompetence, but she leaned against the wall and sat down beside Xin Ya. Her back leaned against the similarly hot wall, she looked at Xin Ya, who was now like a pitiful little beast.
“Didn’t you always want to know about me and Yu Dong?”Sister Mao suddenly asked.
Some time ago, before ye Cong left, Xin Ya often pestered sister Mao to ask her about her past, but sister Mao never told her.
So, Xin Ya raised her head and looked at sister Mao.
Sister Mao clasped her hands together and scratched something that did not exist under her fingernails. “He and I are both students from media college. We were in the same class during our freshman year, and we gradually got together.”
Xin Ya sniffed and continued to listen.
“At the end of our junior year, Yu Dong went to a management company in the east and became an intern manager’s assistant. At that time, Yu Dong was very high-spirited and was a famous figure in our grade. People said that I was lucky to be with Yu Dong for several lifetimes.”
“You are also very good,”xin ya said softly.
Sister Mao smiled, “I thought so too. It was my fortune to be with him. Yu Dong was very good to me at that time. He took me out to play with the first salary of the internship and gave me the rest of the money. At that time, we agreed to get married after graduation.”
Xin Ya’s mouth moved. It had been many years since they graduated.
Perhaps it was because she thought of the past, but sister Mao was not in a good mood.
“At that time, other than liking him, I also regarded him as my idol. With him as my goal, I wanted to do the same thing as him. It was as if this was the only way to prove that we were working together for our future. So I gave up my dream of being a reporter and went to be a manager,”sister Mao said, she laughed at herself.
Xin Ya continued to listen quietly.
“When he found out, he was very angry. In this industry, not only actresses sometimes suffer losses, but also managers. It is very difficult for girls to become managers. Sometimes, they also suffer losses. But at that time, he was determined to believe that if you can do it, why can’t I? You said that you are working hard for our future, and I am the same. I am doing the same thing as you, and I am working hard for the same goal as you. What is wrong with me?”
Xin Ya was stunned by sister Mao’s words. That’s right, she didn’t think it was wrong.
“Wrong, very wrong.”Sister Mao lowered her eyes, not wanting anyone to see the sadness in her eyes, “During that time, we often quarreled and didn’t break up. But when I first became a manager’s assistant, because I had to protect my own artiste, I was often groped and groped by others. During that time, Yu Dong often got into fights because of this kind of thing. But at that time, I had the same thoughts as you now. I thought that when two people are together, they have to do the same thing and bear the same pressure. Only then can it be considered as giving equally for the family.”
Xin Ya was still looking at sister Mao who had her eyes lowered. Because of her words, there were ripples in her heart, but she could not grasp the reason behind it.
“Later, I made myself stronger, so we broke up,”sister Mao said as she looked at Xin Ya, “If you force yourself to change, you will no longer be the original you. The efforts of two people in the same family are complementary, not parallel. “Men and women are originally from two directions. Don’t force yourself to change just to accommodate others. Then you will become someone you don’t even know.”
