Chapter 376 Old Dream and New World (Part )

"You are the second person to ask me this question today."

Zhao Youzhen suddenly stopped and turned to look at the woman who was following him, hanging half a body.

He also has long brown hair like a waterfall, but this one's altitude is obviously much higher than Xu Yiru's.

Barbara Pavin, who is 1.75 meters tall.

It's 3:40 in the afternoon, and there are still 20 minutes left before Lil Yachty's opening show today. Zhao Youzhen had to stay in the background to monitor in real time, while Xu Yiru, according to their agreement, followed Han Yi to prevent Barbara from getting close to the latter.

But what the two of them didn't expect was that Pavin, who appeared at the Mad City Music Festival, did not go straight to the booth area where Han Yi was, but hung up the backstage pass she had obtained through the Coca-Cola mini documentary crew. , we found Zhao Youzhen working seriously on the right side of the stage.

"Hey, Yuzhen."

Barbara, who still had filming duties, wore a stunningly exquisite full-body makeup, paired with a Mugler black short skirt that perfectly blended elegance and sexiness. Even backstage where everyone was running back and forth at three times the speed, Barbara It can also become the focus of frequent glances from staff coming and going.

"Barbara."

"Of course, Yuzhen."

"Should we find a place to sit?"

"apologize?"

"it is good."

"It's not urgent, it's necessary."

"Dylan." After a moment of silence, Zhao Youzhen handed the document to tour manager Dylan Bachman, who was checking the stage technical requirements with her, but her eyes remained on Barbara Pavin, "Can you give us a moment? ?”

"Tell me." Watching Dylan Buckman disappear around the corner of the passage, Zhao Youzhen took a deep breath and turned his attention back to Barbara, "What's so urgent?"

Dylan didn't know what the two supermodels in front of him wanted to talk about, but it was clear that this was definitely not a conversation he should get involved in. The young tour manager took the rider, said goodbye to Zhao Youzhen and Barbara Pavin with his eyes, buried his head in the documents, and quickly fled the scene.

"Okay, then..." Barbara licked her lips, considered her words in her mind, and then said slowly, "I came to you today to... apologize to you first."

Barbara pursed her lips and folded her hands in front of her.

From head to toe, Zhao Youzhen quickly scanned Barbara's upright figure as if rooted in place.

"Good afternoon." A polite smile appeared on Yuzhen's lips, he nodded slightly, and used this action to lower his head again and continue to examine the printed technical rider.

"I am waiting."

"Do you have time now? I want to talk to you about something."

Zhao Youzhen's pupils shrank slightly as he raised his head following the sound. His expression of surprise disappeared for a moment, and was replaced by Gu Jing's unwavering calmness.

"If you don't bother me, I hope I can wait here."

Barbara looked around.

"Good afternoon." Barbara's hands hanging by her sides clenched and released, repeated several times quickly.

"I can't leave." You Zhen shook his head, "I can only stay here."

"what do you mean……"

"I don't have much time." Zhao Youzhen's tone was not harsh, but firm enough. She raised the document in her hand, her smile still modest and polite, "Wait a moment, okay?"

"I lied to you."

"about what?"

"About my relationship with Yi."

"Are we no longer friends?" Zhao Youzhen hid the heat in his eyes very well.

"I don't know if I can use the word 'no longer' because..."

Halfway through, Barbara's words stopped abruptly. Without blinking, she observed Zhao Youzhen with great concentration for a few seconds, who seemed to have no special expression, and then sighed with a heavy, yet relieved expression.

"Grace has already come to see you, right?"

"Yes." Zhao Youzhen nodded without hesitation, still adhering to her way of speaking with precious words, without any unnecessary explanation.

"What did she tell you?"

"Exactly the same thing." Zhao Youzhen paused deliberately, "Except for apologizing."

"Yeah, I deserve that."

Barbara grinned and gave a rather complicated wry smile. "I should really apologize to you for hiding part of the truth."

"Partly?" Zhao Youzhen raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, Yi treated me as an emotional counselor and shared with me the details of his relationship with you in order to seek advice and help. This part is absolutely true. I didn't tell a lie. He showed great love to me in front of me. Your obsession and dependence are real."

"Then what's fake?" Zhao Youzhen took a deep breath and asked in a low voice.

"What's false is... No, what I didn't reveal to you is that my role is not limited to an emotional counselor."

Barbara was silent for a long time before she dropped the bomb hidden in the second half of her sentence.

"Our encounter in Ibiza was not platonic. He was attracted to me, I was attracted to him, and we slept together the first night we met."

To Barbara's surprise, the words exploded as expected, but the other party's defensive fortress did not collapse along with it. The bomb made a crisp sound when it collided with the hard stone wall, and then bounced back into the soil and detonated.

There seemed to be a small gap in the city wall, but there was still a long distance between it and the city wall.

"You don't look very surprised, or very...angry."

"Should I be angry?" Zhao Youzhen turned off the phone screen that was accidentally lit by her clenched fingers. Her breathing rate was slower than before, and the range of lung movement caused by breathing was also greater than before.

"Isn't he the one you like?" Barbara pursed her lips slightly, "You are also the one he likes, aren't you?"

"Maybe, but what rights does this give me?" Youzhen lowered his eyes, "Whether I like him or he likes me, I am still his employee and he is still my boss. This is There is a superior-subordinate relationship that cannot be confused in the workplace. If hugs are not counted, I have not even had any intimate contact with him, nor... so, where should I stand? "What role should I play to express my anger?"

"In my opinion, no matter what your position or role is, you have the right to be angry, right?" Barbara tilted her head, looked at the other person seriously, and said word by word, "What do you like?" Someone secretly had a relationship with someone else behind your back, and now, this 'other person' is standing in front of you, talking about this matter... Doesn't this also touch you?"

"……Do not."

Zhao Youzhen had a hard time pronouncing this word that expressed denial. No matter how hard she pretended to be calm, her expression looked horribly stiff, and she had to turn around and leave quickly to cover up her anger that almost overflowed.

"Where are you going?"

"Backstage side door, pick up people."

You Zhen's attitude was very clear, she didn't want to say another word to Barbara.

"Where is our conversation? Is it over here?" Barbara tightened the shoulder straps of her backpack and kept up with Zhao Youzhen.

"If your intention is to anger me, then I regret to tell you that you have come to the wrong person."

The pace of Korean girls is getting faster and faster.

"This kind of trick works on Grace - after all, she's the one who actually has skin contact with him. She cares more than I do."

"I didn't want to anger you, Youzhen." Barbara jogged two steps and walked side by side with Zhao Youzhen, "What I want to do is just show my sincerity."

"Your sincerity... is indeed quite explicit." You Zhen said with sarcasm, without making any attempt to hide it.

"Again, I deserve that."

Barbara touched the ponytail on the back of her head and chuckled resignedly.

"I just want to use 100% facts to regain your trust."

"Trust." Youzhen snorted at a volume that Barbara couldn't hear, "Then did you gain Grace's trust this morning?"

"I didn't tell her."

"This is hard for me to believe." Youzhen kept walking, just turning his head slightly to the left, and waving his index finger back and forth between himself and Barbara twice, "Grace told me."

"What did she tell you?" Barbara frowned.

"This morning, you and Yi behaved quite intimately in the restaurant."

"But that doesn't mean she knows the details of my first encounter with him." The Hungarian supermodel's expression relaxed a little, "Grace doesn't know the progress... let alone the extent. Yi will not tell her these things, and neither will I." Won't."

"Then why are you telling me?" Maybe this was not Zhao You's true intention, but the way she was looking at Barbara with cold eyes was indeed filled with coldness. "Do you think I'm really no threat at all, or do you think I'm weak?" To this extent?"

"Neither."

Barbara's voice was unusually soft, and her words were equal parts comforting and persuasive.

"The reason why I will tell you all the secrets that should be kept without reservation is because I need your help. I need you to work with me to put together the comfortable but futureless old dream Yi Cong Grace weaved for him. Come out and bring us into a new world."

"That's right, Yuzhen. Grace belongs to his past and should stay in his past. Only you and me are the ones who can lead him forward."
