Accidental Mark

Summary of the Accidental Mark

But now, here I am, Pei Shaoze knows better. He saw the same future I dreaded. So instead of pushing him... no, *letting* him go, we did things differently. We handled it respectfully, gave him space, trusted his talent. And then came the show – a project tailor-made for him to shine.

It clicked! That drama became our biggest success yet. Cheng Xia’s star started rising, and he always credits that first step back to me. "All thanks to President Pei," he keeps saying at every awards ceremony or gala... it gets a bit much sometimes, honestly.

But hey, seeing the gratitude in his eyes? It makes up for everything else. And when I walked him home last time under those city lights... well, that was different. There wasn't a single word left unspoken between us then. Everything felt real and heavy at once.

Turns out, not just directing his breakthrough roles helped build his confidence. Some parts of the story wrote themselves – like how he chose me in the end, even if it was just as his biggest supporter. He gave me that freedom to grow, trust in my choices... I already did :)
