Chapter 45 Part 2: I Like You
Feng Yan went up and helped Yu Weixi pull the curtains.
Yu Weixi blinked, a little confused as to why Feng Yan was here.
Feng Yan shook his head. “Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten again.”
“I remember!” Yu Weixi frowned slightly. “Last night… I went out for a drink with you. And then, and then I must have gotten drunk, and you carried me back.”
Feng Yan raised an eyebrow. “Did you forget what you said last night?”
“Who remembers.” Yu Weixi rolled his eyes.
“Anyway, what can I say when I’m with you? Dog B.”
Feng Yan was a little disappointed. He smiled and said, “Come and eat breakfast.”
Feng Yan knew that Yu Weixi didn’t eat much, so he had prepared a very light meal for him, a fried egg and a glass of low-fat milk. Only then would Yu Weixi eat more.
The two of them sat face to face. Feng Yan said, “Just now, before you woke up, President Huo contacted me. He said he wants to take back Chu Qing’s dog, Mona Lisa.”
Yu Weixi’s hand holding the fork paused slightly.
“No!” Yu Weixi said fiercely, “We’ll raise it ourselves! We won’t give it to him.”
Feng Yan was first unexpectedly pleased by the “we,” then he explained, “But Mona Lisa was originally a gift from Huo Li to Chu Qing.”
“…”
Feng Yan shook his head. “Huo Li said he had two dogs in the US. Mona Lisa is their child. Now that those two dogs have passed away and Chu Qing is also gone, he wants to take Mona Lisa back as a memento.”
Yu Weixi pouted.
Feng Yan continued to explain, “I think, if Chu Qing were still here, he would probably also prefer that Huo Li raise it.”
“Then give it to him.” Yu Weixi said with dissatisfaction, “Anyway, Chu Qing loves that B.”
Feng Yan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “But that B is someone we can’t afford to offend. Not to mention how big his company is, it’s said that… he’s involved in the underworld in the US.”
Yu Weixi paused.
“Ah…?” Yu Weixi asked curiously, “Drugs? Weapons?”
“I don’t know about that, but I can say that Luo Yucheng probably won’t have a good time from now on.”
“That’s for the best!” Yu Weixi said coldly, “That B didn’t do anything when he was alive, but he’s so attentive after he’s dead. If he has the ability, he should first dig out the person on President Ye’s side.”
“He’s really been dug out.”
“…?”
Yu Weixi immediately went on Weibo to watch the show.
Sure enough, it was unknown what method Huo Li had used, but the video of the transaction between President Ye and Luo Yucheng and the solid evidence had also come out.
And President Li knew that he couldn’t escape being hammered, so he could only make peace with his wife and sincerely apologize to the media, pushing all the blame onto Luo Yucheng.
“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry. I was wrong. I’m sorry to my wife and children. I couldn’t resist the temptation…”
In the video, President Li kept bowing.
“I shouldn’t have been seduced by Luo Yucheng…”
At this point, President Li’s wife also had to speak up for him.
“It was that shameless vixen, looking for sugar daddies everywhere. Even President Ye and President Xu fell for it. My husband is not smart, so he naturally couldn’t escape either…”
Then President Li also posted the chat history and recordings with Luo Yucheng, proving that it was indeed Luo Yucheng who had entangled him first.
On the other side, President Xu and President Ye also used the same response as President Li. Since they couldn’t wash it away, they could only push it onto Luo Yucheng.
And the truth was that Luo Yucheng had approached them first, had seduced them first. After all, Luo Yucheng was not some stunning beauty, and they would not have taken the initiative.
This time, Luo Yucheng had really become a public bus, nailed to the pillar of shame and being ridiculed and discussed by the vast number of netizens.
Yu Weixi didn’t know what Luo Yucheng was feeling at this moment, but it definitely wasn’t good.
After finishing breakfast, Yu Weixi comfortably stretched. He saw Feng Yan consciously get up to clear the plates and go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Yu Weixi was taken aback.
“Wow, Senior Feng, are you so virtuous?”
“That’s right.” Feng Yan was wearing an apron and gloves, washing the dishes and the previous kitchen utensils.
Yu Weixi said with a subtle expression, “Virtuous Consort Feng, are you like this at everyone’s home?”
“Of course not. I’m not a professional dishwasher.” Feng Yan turned his head and said with a smile, “This is naturally a treatment that only my emperor has.”
The base of Yu Weixi’s ears turned slightly red. He “tsked” and turned back to his room to change his clothes.
He still had to go to the old senior Lu’s place for an audition later.
Feng Yan reminded, “Before we leave, I’ll go over the script that the production team sent you one more time.”
Yu Weixi frowned slightly. “You’re not going with me?”
“It’s not good for me to go with you. After all, I’m not participating in this short film, and it’s your first time auditioning.” Feng Yan said meaningfully, “Xixi got the script on his own. It has nothing to do with me.”
Feng Yan didn’t want others to think that Yu Weixi had gotten the old senior Lu’s resource by seducing him with his beauty.
Yu Weixi pouted and didn’t say anything.
…
Basically, the audition went smoothly. Yu Weixi, following Feng Yan’s guidance and his own understanding, portrayed a different kind of character.
The old senior Lu was quite satisfied and told Yu Weixi to go home and wait for news. The production team would contact his team.
After leaving the set, Yu Weixi had to rush to the next brand meet-and-greet.
Ever since Yu Weixi’s scandal had been clarified, the company had not suppressed him anymore. His activities continued as usual. And because of this storm, Yu Weixi’s fame had been pushed to a new height, so he had endless endorsements.
Yu Weixi arrived at the hotel and was about to go upstairs when he saw a person.
Yu Weixi raised a slight eyebrow.
Luo Yucheng was wearing thick clothes, a mask, and a baseball cap, standing in a corner with a somewhat timid and apprehensive posture.
After seeing Yu Weixi, Luo Yucheng immediately limped over.
It seems he hadn’t hit him for nothing that day, Yu Weixi thought. Luo Yucheng’s foot still hasn’t recovered.
And Luo Yucheng was wrapped up like a beekeeper. Firstly, he couldn’t be seen in public at the moment, and secondly, he must be covered in injuries.
“Oh? Does Mr. Luo still have the guts to come out?” Yu Weixi said with a smile, “Aren’t you afraid of being thrown with rotten eggs? Or being paraded through the streets? Let me think…”
Yu Weixi rubbed his chin. “Someone like you, in ancient times, would probably be stripped naked and paraded through the streets, or drowned in a pig cage.”
But this time, Luo Yucheng was not angry and did not refute. On the contrary…
Thump!
Yu Weixi’s eyes widened. He saw Luo Yucheng… kneel in front of him.
Luo Yucheng knelt at Yu Weixi’s feet and said with a trembling voice, “I was wrong, I was really wrong…”
Yu Weixi was stunned.
What’s this?
“I was wrong… please save me, save me, please…” Luo Yucheng cried, “Please save me! I’ll do anything! Really!!”
Only then did Luo Yucheng notice the dark circles under Luo Yucheng’s eyes. He looked extremely haggard, and his eyes were even chaotic and dazed.
Yu Weixi said coldly, “The dead cannot be resurrected. It’s useless even if you kneel until your knees are raw.”
“I was wrong, I was really wrong!” Luo Yucheng said almost hysterically, “Please ask President Huo to let me go, please! Please!”
Yu Weixi was taken aback.
Huh?
Luo Yucheng cried, “I’m about to go crazy… I can’t take it anymore, I really can’t take it anymore…”
Yu Weixi was not very interested in what Huo Li had done to Luo Yucheng. In any case, he was satisfied.
Yu Weixi raised an eyebrow. “I have no relationship with President Huo. And who is he, you don’t know? Do you think I can stop him from doing what he wants?”
“You, you can plead for me…”
“Then why should I plead for you?” Yu Weixi sneered, as if he had heard the biggest joke of the year. “You pushed me off a cliff, framed me for being used by the casting couch, and ruined my reputation, and killed Chu Qing, and I still have to plead for you??”
“What am I, the Virgin Mary? Or the Goddess of Mercy who saves all living beings? I’m not stupid.”
“Yu Weixi, I’m begging you, I’m really begging you!!” Luo Yucheng kept shouting, his mind looking a little unclear.
Yu Weixi called for security. Two security guards dragged the still screaming Luo Yucheng away.
Yu Weixi looked in the direction Luo Yucheng was dragged away and was slightly lost in thought.
Harming others and harming oneself, Yu Weixi thought. If he had known this would happen, would Luo Yucheng still have framed others like this…?
He would even give up his life just to be famous.
At this time, Yu Weixi was just sighing casually, feeling that Luo Yucheng would even give up his life for these empty fame and fortune.
But he hadn’t expected that four days later, Luo Yucheng would be in the news again.
—Luo Yucheng had committed suicide in his home by slitting his wrists. It was said that when he died, his expression was… terrified and ferocious.
As expected, an eye for an eye, a life for a life.
This matter thus came to an end.
Huo Li took away all of Chu Qing’s belongings from his home and took them to the US with Mona Lisa, and left.
And a few days later, it was Yu Weixi’s birthday.
The moment the clock struck midnight, Yu Weixi’s studio and company officially announced his resources one by one according to the agreed-upon dates.
Perfume, jewelry, fashion… from brand ambassador to global ambassador, each one more enviable than the last.
Exactly twenty-three, the same as Yu Weixi’s age.
Xixi’s fans had booked the capital’s building and almost all the major transportation hubs’ large screens. They had even contracted them to the US, telling the Americans that our Xixi had made achievements after returning to the country! He was just as popular!
Not only that, but the fans had also bought a night of fireworks and hot air balloons in the city where he lived for Yu Weixi. On the night of his birthday, the confessions and support messages in the sky never stopped. There were also huge donations to orphanages and charities.
Not only that, but the gifts for Yu Weixi were also exaggerated. Before, Yu Weixi had said in an interview that he liked the sea, so his fans had contracted lifetime plane tickets to all coastal cities for him.
On the day of the birthday banquet, they had even paved a path of flowers for Yu Weixi. Nine hundred and ninety-nine fresh roses were flown in from abroad, the petals still dewy.
Money? We have it! Spending money is not a problem, and putting in effort is even less of a problem.
Before, Yu Weixi had said that he had not yet tried skydiving and had always wanted to try. Then O-fucking-K, the fans not only booked five years of free skydiving for Yu Weixi, but also started a skydiving relay. They all went to try skydiving, jumping down with Yu Weixi’s support color spray.
During the day, it was the color of the spray. At night, it was hot air balloons and fireworks.
In a word, face? A must! Crazy? A must!
The young boy’s birthday was as grand as ever.
They had basically done everything that Feng Yan could do, walking the path of Yu Weixi’s partner, leaving Yu Weixi’s partner with no path to walk!
Basically, whatever Feng Yan gave now would seem stingy and useless.
Feng Yan was so troubled that he felt he was about to go bald.
