Chapter 88 Chapter 88

Although it was late at night, Yan Zhiheng's attire was still exquisitely neat, without a single flaw, as if he could walk the red carpet at any time.

His entrance into the ward made the small room shine brightly.

Wen Yue frowned: "You came to visit the ward empty-handed?"

Yan Zhiheng paused: "I know you were so worried about your car accident, how could I have the mood to buy gifts?"

Wen Yue ruthlessly exposed him: "But you had time to change clothes and even put on accessories."

Yan Zhiheng looked away: "...Cough, isn't it just a minor accident?"

Wen Yue sneered, then introduced Gu Xing Shi: "This is my uncle, Yan Zhiheng, he invested in this hospital."

Gu Xing Shi suddenly understood.

No wonder the ambulance was so quick even abroad.

Wen Yue was about to introduce Gu Xing Shi to Yan Zhiheng.

Yan Zhiheng raised his hand: "No need, I know him."

Both Gu Xing Shi and Wen Yue were stunned.

Yan Zhiheng smiled at Gu Xing Shi: "You forgot, we've met before."

Gu Xing Shi suddenly remembered something: "You are... at my uncle's funeral..."

Yan Zhiheng nodded slightly.

When Gu Xing Shi's uncle was seriously ill, he made a will, asking the lawyer to find him.

Unfortunately, his uncle's illness progressed too quickly. When he returned with the lawyer, his uncle was already dying and passed away soon.

As his uncle's only heir, he handled the funeral.

It was raining on the day of the funeral, and not many people came.

Only one man came near the end of the funeral.

He was surrounded by several bodyguards, holding a black umbrella for him, the umbrella covering his upper half face, only revealing his refined jaw and pale lips.

He was surrounded, and Gu Xing Shi couldn't see his face clearly.

It wasn't until he finished paying respects and Gu Xing Shi reciprocated that he caught a glimpse.

Unfortunately, he was quickly blocked by the bodyguards and escorted away.

It's not surprising that Gu Xing Shi didn't recognize him.

Mainly because Yan Zhiheng's condition was really bad at that time.

Pale, haggard.

He was completely different from his perfect appearance now.

The system said: 【Don't say you didn't recognize him, I didn't recognize him either. Yan Zhiheng has never shown his imperfect side in public in his life.】

【Let's put it this way, since his debut, he has been popular, he has flopped, but he has never been ugly, even his black fans have to admit this. Other celebrities have been photographed picking their teeth, spitting, farting, etc., but he never has. As long as he appears in public, he is always perfect, so he was once considered a fake person.】

Gu Xing Shi's thoughts stirred: 【Since Yan Zhiheng cares so much about perfection, why did he look like that at my uncle's funeral?】

System: 【That's because Yan Zhiheng had just had surgery and was not supposed to get out of bed, but he ignored the doctor's objections and returned home to attend your uncle's funeral. As a result, he collapsed after the funeral and recuperated for more than half a year.】

Gu Xing Shi remembered the rumors.

It was said that Yan Zhiheng and his uncle had a big argument, and their relationship was almost broken, so he left Leshi.

But now it seems that their relationship is not as the rumors say.

Yan Zhiheng, in such a weak condition after surgery, still came to attend his uncle's funeral.

And his uncle, his office still has Yan Zhiheng's posters, and all the video materials of the movies, TV series, variety shows, and concerts he participated in.

After their quarrel, Yan Zhiheng went abroad.

His uncle never mentioned him again, and even when the company had problems, he would rather sell his assets to maintain it than look for him.

The reason for their quarrel is a mystery, nobody knows.

But his uncle never fell in love or got married in his life, and he was still alone when he died.

Yan Zhiheng also lived a reclusive life abroad and didn't seem to have a partner.

So, there were rumors that they were a couple in love.

However, the wealthy Yan family didn't allow their youngest son to be with an ordinary person without power or influence, so they intervened, and the young couple was forced to separate, one went abroad, and the other died of depression.

Then, Gu Xing Shi heard Yan Zhiheng sigh: "After you inherited Leshi, I thought I could help you, but you solved it yourself."

"Gu Jin's poor judgment, he was only brilliant once in his life when he found an heir..."

Gu Xing Shi: "?"

This doesn't look like a couple?

The system promptly explained: 【Cough, these two are not a couple, Gu Jin didn't get married because he is a workaholic, completely devoted to his work, he didn't have time for anything else, and Yan Zhiheng is because he is too obsessed with perfection, he doesn't want people to see his unkempt appearance when he relaxes...】

Gu Xing Shi: 【...】

Who would have thought that under the lingering rumors, the truth is so speechless.

System: 【As for their relationship, or... it's more appropriate to call them rivals.】

Gu Xing Shi: 【?】

System: 【Yan Zhiheng is the youngest son of the Yan family generation, and because he is handsome, he has been spoiled since childhood. When he came of age, he suddenly rebelled, and went to be a star anonymously. At that time, he signed with your uncle Gu Jin's company.】

【Gu Jin had just been betrayed by his previous artist, and the company was in a life-or-death situation. He saw Yan Zhiheng's potential, so he spared no effort to sign him, but after signing him, he found that their personalities were completely incompatible. They would have small fights every three days and big fights every five days. If Gu Jin hadn't invested all his money in Yan Zhiheng, and Yan Zhiheng hadn't wanted to admit defeat and go home in disgrace, they would have broken up long ago.】

【But Yan Zhiheng is a natural star, his first drama became popular, and then they started arguing again. Gu Jin said it was because of his good eyesight and the good scripts he chose. Yan Zhiheng believed it was because he was excellent and made the drama popular. In short, neither of them would give in to the other, they competed in every drama. Later, Yan Zhiheng became a singer, and the same thing happened again...】

【Yan Zhiheng must have come back because he was unwilling, Gu Jin is dead, they will probably never be able to decide the winner.】

Gu Xing Shi sighed secretly after listening.

These two are also friends and foes.

Thinking of this, he asked again: 【In that case, why did Yan Zhiheng quit the entertainment industry back then?】

System: 【Because Yan Zhiheng pursues perfection, he wants to preserve his best side on the screen, and doesn't want people to see his aging appearance...】

Gu Xing Shi: 【...】

Although it's unbelievable, it is something Yan Zhiheng would do.

Although Yan Zhiheng didn't get along well with Gu Jin, he had a good impression of Gu Xing Shi.

After all, no one speaks so much to his liking, every word touches his heart, even praising people is different from others, it's scratching an itch.

And, he's good at talking, and he's handsome, chatting with him is simply refreshing.

Yan Zhiheng initially just treated him as Gu Jin's junior, so he wanted to take care of him more.

But now he likes him more and more, he wants to treat him as his own nephew.

They chatted happily, leaving Wen Yue aside.

Wen Yue: "..."

He knew Yan Zhiheng was always picky and fastidious, and few people could catch his eye.

Although he knew he treated Gu Xing Shi as a junior, Wen Yue still felt like his treasure was being coveted.

Of course, he couldn't blame Gu Xing Shi, so he started to evict Yan Zhiheng: "Uncle, it's getting late, since I'm fine, you're busy, so I won't delay you."

Yan Zhiheng looked at him disdainfully: "I'm talking to Xing Shi, what are you interrupting for?"

Wen Yue: "..."

He said more seriously, "Didn't you come to visit me specially?"

"Oh, right." Yan Zhiheng suddenly realized, and looked at Gu Xing Shi with concern, "Xing Shi, I heard you were in a car accident with this guy, are you okay? Should I take you for a full body check?"

Gu Xing Shi shook his head: "No, Mr. Yan, I've already had a check-up."

After entering the hospital, when the doctor treated Wen Yue's wound, he insisted on having Gu Xing Shi checked to make sure he was okay before he felt relieved.

Yan Zhiheng: "Why are you so formal? Just call me Brother Yan."

Wen Yue: "?"

"Any objections?" Yan Zhiheng glanced at him lightly, "Xing Shi, don't look at this guy's decent appearance now, when he was a child..."

Wen Yue swallowed his breath and interrupted him expressionlessly: "No objection, you don't mind being a generation lower than Uncle Gu, what do I have to mind."

Yan Zhiheng suddenly froze.

He only then remembered that Gu Xing Shi was Gu Jin's distant nephew.

Gu Xing Shi rarely saw Wen Yue so "lively".

According to Yan Zhiheng, Wen Yue lived in the Yan family for a while when he was a child, and he was much cuter than he is now. He has a lot of video materials that he collected. If Gu Xing Shi is interested, he can show them to him next time.

Wen Yue: "..."

Under the pressure of (dark) blood (history), he could only swallow his anger and find another way.

So, when Gu Xing Shi and Yan Zhiheng were chatting happily, Gu Xing Shi suddenly felt Wen Yue tugging at his sleeve.

He turned his head and saw Wen Yue leaning weakly on the pillow: "Xing Shi, I feel a little dizzy..."

Seeing his pale face and rare vulnerability, Gu Xing Shi was also a little worried, found the medicine the doctor had given him earlier from the table, and poured warm water: "Why don't you take some medicine first?"

Wen Yue maintained this weak appearance, took the medicine and drank the water from his hand.

Yan Zhiheng was dumbfounded.

This unimaginable behavior?!

Is this still his tough nephew who pretends and never shows weakness to others?!

Although Wen Yue wanted to occupy all of Gu Xing Shi's attention, seeing his fatigue, he couldn't bear it, so he called someone to take him back to rest.

Gu Xing Shi didn't insist.

He was really tired today. During the car accident, although he wasn't injured, he was also mentally shocked, and now that he relaxed, he felt exhausted.

Moreover, Wen Yue has doctors and family members to take care of him, so he is not worried.

So after they made an appointment to meet tomorrow, Gu Xing Shi went back first.

As soon as he left.

The ward fell silent.

Wen Yue's vulnerability disappeared instantly, and he coldly said to Yan Zhiheng: "Why don't you leave yet?"

Yan Zhiheng: "Not pretending anymore?"

Wen Yue: "This is a kind of romance, a perennial bachelor like you won't understand."

"Romance?" Yan Zhiheng wasn't angry at all, and unceremoniously stabbed him with an elegant tone, "You're really good at flattering yourself, you just didn't catch up, so you used this kind of technique to compete for favor."

"Noob."
