Chapter 33 No Longer Willing to Tolerate [VIP]
"Are you crazy?" Annie looked at Mingyu, whose face was bruised and swollen. If she weren't still professional, she would have cursed him out.
"You're a star! You're an actress! Your value is your face! What are you doing right now?!" Annie yelled angrily. "Look at your face, can you even look on camera?!"
When Annie handed him the mirror, Mingyu kept his eyes tightly shut, not daring to look at himself.
In fact, he didn't regret fighting Qin Yuzhen at all. In fact, the only thing he regretted was not beating Qin Yuzhen on the first day after his rebirth, but instead dragging it out until now for filming.
"There are still at least half of the scenes to be filmed. Let's see who can help you!" Annie was still furious. She never expected that Mingyu would chase after them and end up beating up their boss. If Ziyu's assistant hadn't suddenly returned, the two of them probably wouldn't have stopped until they had beaten each other to death.
Annie still remembers the panicked tone in Ziyu's assistant's voice when she called.
"Come quickly and take Mingyu away!"
Annie removed the mirror, picked up the ointment, and applied it to Mingyu little by little.
The ointment was very effective, but the side effect was severe pain; Mingyu was grimacing in pain.
"You deserve to be in pain! How dare you hit your boss?"
"So what if he fires me! The contract doesn't say hitting the boss is a breach of contract!" Mingyu shouted indignantly, then hissed in pain, "Annie! Annie! It hurts! Be gentle! Be gentle!"
Annie scoffed, "That's just sophistry."
On the other side, Ziyu and Qin Yuzhen sat at opposite ends of the sofa at home, looking at each other in silence.
Compared to Mingyu's face, which was swollen like a pig's head, Qin Yuzhen's face was not injured much. He had just been to the hospital for a check-up and was found to be fine. He would recover in a few days.
Ziyu felt a sense of helplessness.
The assistant avoided his reply and is now pretending to be dead. Meanwhile, the main target and the secondary target took advantage of his unpreparedness and fought each other until they were both bloodied.
Ziyu just wanted to know what exactly happened.
He didn't know if continuing down the storyline was the right thing to do.
Looking at Qinyu Town, Ziyu couldn't say a word.
"sorry."
An apology suddenly rang out in the empty room.
Qin Yuzhen lowered his head, his voice low and hoarse.
"sorry."
Ziyu is no longer the submissive girl who was shocked when she heard the scumbag gong apologize.
He felt that he could accept anything now.
"Why did you fight with Mingyu?" Ziyu asked wearily. "What happened?"
Qin Yuzhen looked at Ziyu quietly. Ziyu didn't expect Qin Yuzhen to say anything. He was already used to the scumbag's solitary and willful nature. Who could guess what he was thinking? Qin Yuzhen didn't say anything either.
The air fell silent once again.
Ziyu said, "Mingyu's face won't heal for at least ten days to half a month. Why did you have to hit him in the face of all places?"
In the original storyline, Mingyu became a sensation after starring in this drama.
Although Ziyu didn't know what the situation was, his first reaction was to follow the plot development.
Qin Yuzhen still said, "I'm sorry."
Qin Yuzhen's gaze remained quietly fixed on Ziyu, his injuries still throbbing. He knew he had overreacted; the moment he heard Mingyu's suggestion, he lost control of his emotions… He knew that he had indeed changed a lot since his rebirth.
He was increasingly losing control of himself when it came to matters concerning Ziyu. He would become irritable, sensitive, and extreme.
"What's been going on with you lately... uh?"
Ziyu was speaking when he suddenly felt a warm touch on his legs. A furry black head quietly appeared on his thigh.
"Qin... Yu Town?"
Qin Yuzhen always manages to do things that surprise him, just when he thinks he's no longer moved.
Ziyu didn't know where to put his hands or how to move his legs; he just stared blankly at the black head.
Qin Yuzhen was lying on his lap, leaning against him silently like a taciturn black dog. He even put Ziyu's bewildered hands around his neck.
"What are you doing?"
"..." Qin Yuzhen whispered, "Don't abandon me."
He admitted that he couldn't possibly be as nonchalant as he appeared; Mingyu's words had indeed left a deep mark on his heart.
He also admitted that he was indeed afraid.
Mingyu's words revealed a fact that he had never dared to admit or accept.
Will Ziyu really love him forever?
In his past life, he was so resolute about this matter, but Ziyu left just like that, without a trace of regret. Even when he was bullied and harassed, Ziyu showed no sign of turning back. Even when he kept begging to get closer, Ziyu just silently retreated, her eyes cold and disgusted.
When he says he doesn't love you anymore, he really doesn't.
Ziyu is someone who, when he loves you, has you in his heart and eyes, but when he doesn't love you, it's as if he's never loved you at all.
Even though Ziyu accepted his forgiveness in the end in the previous life, Qin Yuzhen himself knew the truth in his heart.
There may be love, but deep down, Ziyu feels more about compromise.
It was because of the development of Qinyu Town in his previous life that the already powerful Qin family rose to a higher level. The Qin family's influence extended to various industries both domestically and internationally, deeply entrenched and complex. Ziyu was so intelligent and understood him so well that he knew that if he wasn't willing to let him go, then even if he fled to the ends of the earth, he would be brought back. Their ten years together had been too long, and their interests and privacy were intertwined. Even if Ziyu was willing to give up everything, the Qin family wouldn't believe that he could truly relinquish those interests; they would only try to eliminate him completely.
In order to survive, Ziyu had no choice but to agree.
But no one expected that disaster would come even faster than their love.
Mingyu is right. Why does he think he is one of the special ones? He can be reborn, and so can Mingyu—although Qin Yuzhen doesn't know what happened to Mingyu in his previous life that led to his rebirth—then why can't Ziyu be reborn?
If Ziyu were reborn, the Qin family wouldn't have grown so powerful, and his interests wouldn't have been so inextricably intertwined with his own...
So once Ziyu wants to leave, Qinyu Town won't be able to keep him.
Qin Yuzhen had already experienced the pain of being abandoned once, and he didn't want to be abandoned by Ziyu again. He didn't want to be looked at with that kind of gaze by Ziyu again.
Arrogance, conceit, ability, and the title of genius.
He didn't care about Ziyu at all.
All he wants is his lover.
Call him love-struck or stupid, he had no expectations for the world. His mother's strict upbringing had long since made him abandon too many human emotions. Compared to success, he cared more about the only person who could move his emotions: his lover.
"Don't leave me again."
—Don't make me experience the pain of not having you by my side again, and don't look at me like that anymore.
All the words in the world can ultimately be summed up in one sentence.
Don't leave me again, don't abandon me again.
"Weren't we discussing Mingyu's problem?" Ziyu was completely bewildered by Qin Yu's sudden move, feeling both frightened and puzzled. "When did I say I was going to leave you?"
"...As long as you don't leave, that's good."
"He didn't leave, he didn't say anything." Ziyu suddenly had the illusion of coaxing a child. He couldn't help but put his hand on Qin Yuzhen's head. The smooth touch made Ziyu forget his troubles and his persona. He masturbated for a while before he suddenly came back to his senses.
Ziyu looked at his hands in disbelief.
Holy crap...? What am I doing?
Sure enough, sure enough! Something was wrong with this first playthrough! The scumbag seme was wrong, the second and third seme were wrong, and now, even he himself is wrong!
"I'll explain things to the director about Mingyu," Qin Yuzhen said. "I'll also try to find a solution."
"Uh, uh, uh," Ziyu replied absentmindedly. "Don't be jealous of Mingyu because of this. He's young and just signed a contract. Our company still needs him."
Upon hearing Ziyu defend Mingyu once again, Qin Yuzhen's relaxed hand instantly tightened.
"I will make Ziyu fall in love with me in this lifetime!"
Qin Yuzhen's eyes were deep black and sinister.
He will never let this happen.
*
The phone number has been cancelled.
"He didn't come?"
"No."
"Damn it!"
"Stop talking, the call with the master has been connected."
If Ziyu were here, he would probably be very surprised.
The place that used to be my aunt's family's address is now occupied by several tall, burly men with sinister expressions, each holding a weapon. They were the ones who had been talking earlier.
The man surrounded by the burly men, who was vaguely considered to be the leader, was holding a mobile phone, which displayed a call interface.
"He is very smart."
A cold voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I know your operation this time will not succeed."
The burly men looked at each other, unsure of what to say. The man holding the phone, however, was sweating profusely. His voice trembled as he said, "Sir, please give us another chance... Next time, we'll definitely succeed next time."
There seemed to be a soft sigh from the other side.
"I didn't give you this opportunity."
The man's pupils contracted sharply.
Just as the words on the other end of the phone were finished, one of the burly men who had been standing in front of him suddenly emitted a green light, and his limbs were disintegrated and devoured by the green light in the blink of an eye.
The next second, a strong man who was 1.9 meters tall simply vanished.
A suppressed scream of terror erupted from the crowd.
"It was—he—given to you."
"Sir, sir! Help us! Help us!"
The man pleaded in a terrified, tearful voice.
He didn't know when it started, but the people he knew were inexplicably disintegrated by that green light. He couldn't save anyone and could only watch helplessly as his relatives, friends, and even his wife and children disappeared.
Some say this is divine punishment; those chosen will die, and no one can escape it.
He always thought he would die like this, until he met Mr.
The gentleman led him to a young man, and he spent all his money to travel a long distance to reach the young man.
He was a very handsome young man. Just by sitting there quietly studying and reading, he could attract the attention of many people.
He had only passed by the young man when an unprecedented power filled his body, and even his mind became sharper.
The man told him that the young man was the protagonist of this world.
"But this world is about to collapse. In order to reduce its strength, it will naturally have to eliminate cannon fodder NPCs like you who can't generate any mission storylines."
"If you want to live, obey my orders."
The man gripped his phone tightly; it was his last lifeline.
"I will save you."
"You have one more chance. A month from now, after the crew finishes filming, he will attend the wrap party."
A look of joy flashed in the man's eyes, and he hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes, yes! We will definitely seize this opportunity."
"We will definitely kill him!"
