Chapter 8

In the third month after Zhou Yinghuai disappeared, Ye Man received an email without any text message. When he opened the attached file, he found several photos taken yesterday.

The person in the photo turned out to be Zhou Yinghuai, who had lost all information. Ye Man was shocked and enlarged the photo to take a closer look.

Zhou Yinghuai was much tanned, and was wearing shabby patched clothes. His expression was a little fierce, but he looked at the strange man in his arms tenderly, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

In the photo, the two of them were leaning against each other in an intimate posture, and it was obvious that they had a special relationship. Looking at this scene, Ye Man could hardly tell what his mood was at that time.

Knowing that Zhou Yinghuai was safe, his first reaction was naturally joy. However, after calming down and analyzing the situation, he found it extremely tricky.

A series of questions emerged in his mind. Since Zhou Yinghuai was still alive, why didn't he come back? Who is that person leaning against him in the photo? And...what was the purpose of the person who sent him the email?

Since the person was able to take the photo, he must know where Zhou Yinghuai is. He could have revealed the information to Zhou's father and mother in exchange for huge benefits. Why would he send it to him who has no power?

Unable to find a suitable reason, Ye Man felt that this behavior had no logic at all.

After reorganizing his thoughts, he guessed that Zhou Yinghuai was most likely suffering a severe trauma and losing his memory, and was also very likely to have fallen in love with someone else.

In Ye Man's opinion, amnesia is not a big deal. He can accompany the other party to recover slowly. What really makes him difficult is that Zhou Yinghuai has no feelings for him at this time. This means that he will lose his greatest support.

Ye Man has feelings for Zhou Yinghuai, but it is far from a life-and-death struggle, and she will not compete with others for him by any means necessary. Getting engaged to him is the best choice after comprehensive analysis.

When his father Ye Yanxin took his mistress home when he was ten years old, just one month after his mother's death, Ye Man realized that he had no family to rely on.

Over the years, under Ye Yanxin's development, the company has become nothing more than an empty shell and even faces the risk of bankruptcy.

So, Ye Yanxin plotted against him. He was obviously eager to sell him for a good price, and kept taking him to meet those old, bald, greasy men, but he shamelessly played the role of a kind father, under the guise of expanding his network.

In the luxurious cocktail party, he was like a bargaining chip that could be exchanged in a mall, forced to endure obscene gazes and a nauseating smell of greed.

The word "desperate and insane" is no longer enough to describe Ye Yanxin's viciousness.

Ye Man was unwilling to be manipulated by others. He did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, he carefully selected people he knew and after repeated comparisons, he chose Zhou Yinghuai.

The two knew each other since childhood, and it didn't take Ye Man long to find out Zhou Yinghuai's preferences. With a carefully planned confession, Zhou Yinghuai soon became his fiancé.

With the Zhou family as his backer, Ye Yanxin no longer dared to order him around at will. His career also flourished, and everything was moving in the best direction.

What no one expected was that on the eve of the wedding, Zhou Yinghuai secretly went out to sea without telling him and accidentally fell into the sea and disappeared.

The sudden development was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Ye Man. Perhaps because his expression was too grief-stricken, Zhou's mother stepped forward to comfort him, "Manman, the Zhou family will always be your backer."

That being said, Ye Man didn't dare to gamble. Even his biological father was unreliable, so how long could the guilt of Zhou's father and mother, who had no blood relationship with him, last?

Ye Man had no choice. After careful consideration, he made a decision: to create an image of a man who had lost all hope and was deeply in love with Zhou Yinghuai, and to use the guilt of Zhou's father and mother to help develop his career.

He knew where Zhou Yinghuai was, but he didn't tell anyone, allowing him to meet Chen Bai, fall in love, and commit to spending their lives together.

Ye Man admitted that he was selfish, self-interested, and even vicious, but he really couldn't calmly lose everything he had now.

After explaining the follow-up arrangements to his agent, he unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, his shoulders relaxed, and he slowly let out a breath.

Meeting Zhou Yinghuai in the hospital was something Ye Man had not expected. He came to the hospital because he was injured while recording a show, and there was a photographer following him.

Therefore, the moment I saw Zhou Yinghuai, I knew that my every move would be recorded.

Ye Man made a decision immediately. He would seize this opportunity to manipulate public opinion and gain more traffic.

As a 5g surfer, Chi Qi took out his mobile phone to check the trends on the Internet as soon as everyone dispersed.

Top trending searches on Weibo.

#Ye Man Zhou Ying Huai# Explosion

#Ye Man Waiting Hard#

#I feel so sorry for Ye Man#

As a popular young actor, Ye Man has always been at the top of the list in terms of discussion and popularity. After the video was leaked online, it immediately attracted a large number of netizens.

As expected, it became a hot search.

The number of comments and reposts under the post is increasing at an alarming rate.

[I cried after watching the video. Ye Man’s desperate and helpless look made me feel like he was about to break.] ]

[Ye Man, stop hyping yourself up. Are you annoying? If you have that energy, you should work on your acting skills. You acted like a blind person in the last drama. It was so ugly. ]

ˇJust a quick aside, I remember the protagonist of that drama was a blind person, right? ]

[ah? If this video was not an expression of true feelings but was acted out by Ye Man, then fans would not have to worry about his acting career in the future. ]

[Your fiancé has lost his memory and fallen in love with someone else. How can you make him accept it? ]

Chi Qi read the comments with great interest and liked the wonderful remarks made by netizens. Some marketing accounts also came out to deliberately stir up trouble, analyzing and criticizing Ye Man's expression frame by frame, and disrupting everyone's attention.

The situation gradually developed into a biased one, and there were roughly three attitudes on the Internet: fans who felt sorry for Ye Man, bystanders who joined in the fun, and opponents who took the opportunity to expose "black material" and drag him down.

Chi Qi, who had first-hand intelligence in his hands, couldn't help but quickly switched to his second account and wrote thousands of words in great detail. After reading it through and confirming that it was correct, he smiled with satisfaction and clicked send.

Soon, this well-reasoned post became popular.

It has to be said that the imagination and brain-filling ability of this generation of netizens are very good, and they can guess the facts almost accurately based on clues.

They are truly the best group of netizens he has ever taught!

Chi Qi kept his achievements and fame to himself, exited the interface without worry, and continued to patrol the square.

Among the many speculations and conspiracy theories, a post asking for help seemed out of place and attracted the attention of many people, including Chi Qi.

[Try to find a needle in a haystack, does anyone know this guy? The one that looks really good, I’m attracted to it, it’s the one circled in red. ]

Chi Qi clicked on it out of curiosity and was stunned.

The face in the picture is not exactly the same as his, but there is no difference between them.

That's right, it's him.

No way, I was just eating some melons, how come I was posted online?

The comment section is even more lively.

[Instead of taking good care of yourself in the hospital, you're here to join in the fun? ]

[It’s not the first day you’ve known him. He can skip sleep, skip meals, and not take care of his illness, but he must join in the fun. ]

[I don’t know whether to scold him for being ignorant of his own danger, or to praise him for his strong will despite his disability? ]

[If you’re not dead, get up and live stream for me. If you don’t make money, are you going to be starving for the rest of your life? ]

[I really want to give him a big sinus, for no other reason, I just want to slap him. ]

Chi Qi glanced at this barrage: "..."

Damn it, I really want to call the police and have you all arrested!
