Chapter 2. White bear
In his previous life, the person Ren trusted the most was his manager, White bear.
When Ren was in high school, he was scouted by a entertainment agency and that's how he had meet White bear.
It was also the start of his career in entertainment industry.
White bear real name was Dong Shu but everyone liked to call him White bear because of his bear like physique.
They worked together for two years in the agency but the agency was bankrupted in the third year.
Nine out of ten entertainment agencies would barely last longer than five years.
Not only the entertainment companies, but the actors and directors also found it hard to last longer than five years.
That's why entertainment industry is very intense. It is basically a place where only the strong wins.
After the agency went bankrupt, Ren decided not to join another agency and focus on the theatre to improve his acting.
White bear also joined another agency. That was how they parted their ways as a manager and actor.
Although they were no longer manager or actor, they still met frequently. They will meet at least once a month.
That's why Ren smiled when he saw White bear calling him.
Even in his past life, White bear had called him. At that time, White bear was very sad and he had called him for a meet-up.
”Hello, have you been well.”
-Don't talk about being well. I am distressed right now. Want to meet-up.
Ren smiled when he heard the nostalgic voice on the phone.
”I have an appointment.”
-Appointment? Did you get a role in a movie?
”Yeah, although it's a small role.”
-Really, congratulations. You are really doing well. So, can, can I come with you?
”You? Don't you have your job.”
Although Ren knew what had happened to him, he still asked as to not create any suspicion.
-I, I was fired.
”Why??”
-You know I'm a little dimwitted. The others don't like me. They didn't want to work with me.
Ren knew that White bear was assigned to a girl group but the girl group had many problems.
Due to internal fighting, they had separated from each other and the agency blamed White bear for it.
That was the reason he was fired.
-So, can I come with you. I know it would be troublesome but….
”You can come.”
-Really?
”Yeah, do you have any breakfast.
-No, I haven't eaten yet.
”Then, come to my house first.”
-Ah, I will be there in 10 minutes.
The phone ended with that and Ren smiled thinking about the past.
Even In his previous life, White bear had called him lamenting about the fact that he was fired and asked him to go to the shoot together.
Ren had obviously agree and they had went to the shoot together.
There, they were told that the script had changed and Ren had been given a completely new script.
White bear was really infuriated by that and he had even gone to argue with the director. In the end, Ren had only acted for a few minutes and the director had said that he was incompetent for that role.
Ren and White bear had then left the set with dissapointed expressions and drowned in alcohol that night speaking about all of their sorrows.
White bear had then said that he wanted to be his personal manager and they had worked for the next 5 years together.
White bear was really good in his job and he had managed to snatch various roles for Ren but it was only his inability that he wasn't able to do those roles very well.
His acting was mediocre at best.
After that, White bear had gotten married and he had to find a stable job for his family. He wasn't able to stay as Ren's manager forever.
Ren still remembered White bear's crying face when he had decided to leave him.
'Sorry, sorry, Ren. I, I wasn't able to be with you forever. Forgive me….'
He had cried a pool that night. He looked more like a lover than a manager.
Although White bear had left being a manager, they had still stayed in contract.
They had only stopped talking to each other when White bear had gone to live in Japan with his family. He had found a job there.

White bear had only found a new job because of his family. Ren knew more than anyone else that how much White bear liked being a manager.
'In this life, I have to succeed, at least for the people who care about me.'
Ren thought that as he glanced outside his window. The wind was blowing and the sun was shining in the sky.

Just like he had said, White bear reached Ren's house in 10 minutes.
”Aunty, how are you?”
