Many years later, an influencer on Weibo would post nine photos of Qin Xing with the caption of “Does anyone remember this great actor?”

To everyone’s surprise, Wei Chang Feng, who had won several Best Actor Awards had reposted the Weibo with a comment, “Qin Xing must have fulfilled his dream if he were alive.”

Wei Chang Feng’s comment provoked an uproar from the fans, they left countless comments asking how they knew each other and what Qin Xing’s dream was.

That was the first time and the only time that Wei Chang Feng had mentioned Qin Xing’s name in public.

Both Wei Chang Feng and Qin Xing had made their debut when they were little boys, they grew up together on set and became bosom friends, and the country had fallen in love with the two beautiful boys.

Needless to say, kids, who grew up in show business knew how hard it was to make friends, so they appreciated their friendship even more.

However, the fairy tale had turned into its opposite one day. Qin Xing had died in a wire accident when he was shooting a movie and Wei Chang Feng chose to go abroad to study and heal the pain from losing his best friend.

“An, I’m bringing up this old friend of mine to tell you that you never know what comes to you first --- tomorrow or accidents, but we cannot give up on life because of an accident, right?”

Qi Le An was so touched that Wei Chang Feng was sharing a personal story with him, “Wei Sama, I... I haven’t given up on life.”

Wei Chang Feng smiled and nodded, “That’s great, I just... I just wanted to cheer you up.”

The two’s eyes met and they chuckled in unison, Wei Chang Feng changed the subject, “How have you been?”

“I’ve been well, just so busy.” there was a touch of disconsolate in Qi Le An’s tone.

Wei Chang Feng’s phone vibrated when he was about to ask Qi Le An what he had been up to, Gary turned down the volume on the speaker and Wei Chang Feng answered the call.

“Hi, Director Chen, to what do I owe the pleasure?”

“Yeah, I’m free.”

“Great, see you soon then.”

With that Wei Chang Feng hung up the phone and asked Qi Le An, “Do you have any shooting recently?”

Qi Le An shook his head resignedly, “Glory always arranges commercial activities for me.”

Wei Chang Feng frowned, “Commercial activities... hmm... do you mind me inviting someone else to our dinner? I want to introduce you to Director Chen.”

Wei Chang Feng had always been this considerate, he always tried his best to make Qi Le An feel respected and valued, and he tried to downplay it when he was doing Qi Le An a favor.

“Of course!”

Wei Chang Feng smiled and asked Gary to drop them at East Wind.

East Wind was a fancy restaurant, Qi Le An had only been there once in his last time, he was rendered speechless by how expensive the dishes were when he went there.

Two greeters led Wei Chang Feng and Qi Le An to the hall, it looked like Wei Chang Feng was a regular at the restaurant, the receptionist greeted Wei Chang Feng and soon the greeters took them to a private room.

Qi Le An adored the quaint interior design of the room so much, he couldn’t help but make a wow sound as they were seated. Wei Chang Feng was amused by Qi Le An, he poured two cups of tea and said, “An, we are meeting Director Chen here, no need to get nervous, all right?”
