He Bai took the notebook and looked at his senior disciple, he was so reluctant to say goodbye to Gu Xifeng who had inspired him so much. Meanwhile the thought that had been in his mind for a long time crept over him again.
He had totally realized what his weakness was and he totally agreed that the solution was to jump out of his comfort zone just like Gu Xifeng had said.
But... would Qiuhe agree?
Having this in mind, He Bai's spirits were drooping, Di Qiuhe thought it was because He Bai was sad that his senior disciple was leaving. He wanted to cheer his puppy up.
“Xifeng is only going for one year, you can always call him, come on puppy, don’t be sad.” Di Qiuhe hugged him and stroked his hair, trying to make him feel better.
He Bai bit his lips, he clenched his arms tighter and asked, “Qiuhe, you are going to a new crew set after this holiday, for how long?”
“About five months.” replied Di Qiuhe, his voice got more gentle, “Don’t worry, I will work hard and make it as short as possible, and I will come back to visit you whenever I’m free.”
“That’s not what I’m asking.” He Bai shook his head, he caught held of Di Qiuhe’ hand and look at him in the eye, “Qiuhe, I have been thinking a lot lately, I decided I want to go with Senior Disciple.”
Di Qiuhe frowned, “Bai, I understand you are looking for something new, something different. But Senior Disciple is going to war zone! He served the army before, he has the right survival skills, that’s why they invite him to be a war correspondent, but you... ...”
“I can be his assistant.” replied He Bai, seeing Di Qiuhe’s face clouded, he squeezed Di Qiuhe’s hand and continued, “Qiuhe, I have put a lot of thoughts in it... ...”
“No!” Di Qiuhe interrupted him, he grabbed He Bai’s hand and gripped it hard, “It’s too dangerous, I won’t let you go! I normally would support your decisions, but war zone is just too dangerous, it’s not for you! If you want to experience new things or you feel bored at home, let’s travel together, but I’m not supporting you to go to war zone!”
“Qiuhe... ...”
“I said no.” Di Qiuhe refused to listen, with that he rose and went upstairs, not leaving He Bai any chance to continue.
Seeing Di Qiuhe’s receding figure, He Bai pressed his forehead, he had totally seen it coming, Childish Di won’t support his decision. But he thought being a war correspondent was not as dangerous as Di Qiuhe imagined, he was not fighting the war.
Di Qiuhe had been giving He Bai silent treatment, he wouldn’t talk to He Bai and he wouldn’t listen to He Bai. He Bai didn’t know what to do.
This night, He Bai rolled to Di Qiuhe’s side and cuddled him.
Di Qiuhe didn’t avoid this cuddle.
“Qiuhe.”
Silence was the reply.
He Bai sighed in his heart, he cuddled Di Qiuhe tighter and spoke gently, “Qiuhe, I know you worry about me, but... ...” he explained how he realized he needed some improvements in his career and he felt the urge to jump out of the comfort zone, then he patted Di Qiuhe on the shoulder, “I swear, I will be back.”
“I totally understand the frustration of hitting a plateau, as an artist, it sucks, but we can go travel to different places, going to war zone isn’t the only way.” Di Qiuhe finally replied, he turned around to look at He Bai, “You know what I mean?”
“I do, I really do.” He Bai felt so much better that Di Qiuhe started to talk to him, he touched Di Qiuhe’s cheek and continued, “But I really want to experience what my parents had done, I want to walk the path they had walked... ... Qiuhe, I can depart after you go to the crew set and come back before your new drama, we can think it this way, we are going for a long business trip separately.
Di Qiuhe didn’t have the heart to say no to him when he heard He Bai wanted to experience the life that his parents had experienced.
“Qiuhe, come on... ...” He Bai coaxed him.
Di Qiuhe cuddled He Bai tighter in his arms, there were so many different emotions going on in his mind, he tried to be tough to cover his emotions, “No... I will think about it... but for now, it’s sleep time.”
He Bai didn’t continue, he buried his face in Di Qiuhe’s chest and went to sleep.
Two days later, He Bai bid Gu Xifeng farewell at the airport, he didn’t mention he had been thinking about joining him and his discussion with Qiuhe.
Half a month later, Di Qiuhe’s holiday finished. Before he went to the crew set, he walked to He Bai who was nestling on the sofa thumbing through a photo album, “Here, if yo wanna go, just go. Remember to call me.”
He Bai stared at him with disbelief.
“Take it, now!” Di Qiuhe put the stuff on the table and looked away, “Your flight is tomorrow night, and I’ve contacted Xifeng, he will pick you up and take care of you after you arrive. Safely first, always keep that in mind. Don’t you dare come back with a wound! I... I...” Di Qiuhe was getting emotional as he spoke, he stared at the stuff on the table as if he wanted to grab it back.
Seeing that, He Bai grabbed it first and hid it behind his back, he swooped to Di Qiuhe and coaxed, “I know it! Qiuhe you are the best, I love you so much!”
“Come back safely,” Di Qiuhe stroked He Bai’s cheek, “Don’t make me regret my decision.”
“I won’t.” He Bai felt so touched, “I will be the first audience for your new dramas and new movies.”
“A promise is a promise.” Di Qiuhe hugged He Bai tighter and whispered at He Bai’s ear, “I’m waiting to pick you up from the airport.”
However, He Bai failed to keep his promise.
Five months later, Di Qiuhe got the news that He Bai was injured and was hospitalized.
He was transfixed on the spot when he got the phone call, then he felt like his heart was about to explode.
“Tickets!”
Wang Boyi who was standing by him asked with concern, “What’s the matter, Mr. Di?”
“Tickets to Bai!” Di Qiuhe gritted his teeth and tried so hard to pull himself together, “Tickets to Bai! I’m going to take him home.”
Wang Boyi was startled seeing the way Di Qiuhe spoke, he realized something must have happened, something bad!
He Bai was not severely injured, but he was in a coma for a long time, he felt like his consciousness was dragged to somewhere else.
“Croak.”
Hearing a frog croak, He Bai opened his eyes with efforts.
Wait, what he was seeing was the tower, the balcony and the moon!
Was he back in his previous life?
He held his camera to and adjust the zoom to take a better look at the balcony, he needed to know what’s going on with Qiuhe.
It was pitch dark there, was Qiuhe already died?
He took a deep breath and ran downhill, then he halted like he had realized something, he came back to pick up his drink, and went downhill.
He didn’t care whether this was a dream or not, he would try his best to save Qiuhe’s life.
He Bai took the notebook and looked at his senior disciple, he was so reluctant to say goodbye to Gu Xifeng who had inspired him so much. Meanwhile the thought that had been in his mind for a long time crept over him again.
