It's not that I don't want to achieve more on this stage, it's just that there are more attractive My business is waiting for me, that's all."
After finishing speaking, Evan Bell gave Travie Nunn a big hug, "Man, I will come back to this stage in the future, I'm only eighteen years old, and life has just begun, isn't it? At that time, I hope you can still accept me."
