Chapter 56
The elevator was very quiet. Apart from the sound of the machine running, no one spoke a word.
Fu Qingyan's gaze fell on the person in front of him.
He found that the other party seemed to have a signal blocker installed on him, and no matter what he said to him, it was automatically blocked.
Originally, he just had a guess about Maomao's attitude towards him.
But now seeing that the other party still said nothing, he was really sure.
So the person in front of me wearing a cute doll costume has really been deliberately avoiding me.
Although he recognized this fact, Fu Qingyan was still a little unwilling to accept it.
He really wanted to figure out what he had done to make the other person feel so disgusted?
After all, when we first met, the other party had this attitude towards me and would stay away from me.
Fu Qingyan couldn't understand.
The elevator descended very quickly, and it arrived at the destination in no time, a distance of more than ten floors.
The moment the elevator door opened, Su Xingyao walked out without even saying goodbye.
After getting into Master Wang's car without looking back, he did not rush to take off his doll costume, but recalled the two questions Fu Qingyan had just asked him.
It's ironic, because he had asked the other person a similar question once upon a time.
I didn't expect the situation to change, and now the other party is asking me eagerly...
Su Xingyao thought it was really ridiculous.
Just a doll costume can change so many things.
But even so, he couldn't figure out where the other party's hatred for him came from?
They were so close at first, but everything changed after the fire.
Because of the frequent encounters with Fu Qingyan today, the unpleasant memories also flooded into Su Xingyao's mind.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the past came back to him.
That happened six years ago after he graduated from the college entrance examination.
Because among the few friends I know in the circle, some of the rich second-generation young men have already reserved places to study abroad.
So in the end, he was the only one who went through the formal college entrance examination.
Because of this, Qin Mingchuan, who had just graduated and had never experienced the torture of the college entrance examination, took the initiative to help him organize a party to celebrate his successful completion of the college entrance examination.
The other party chose a villa on an island abroad as the venue and invited Shen Huaixi, Fu Qingyan and Ban Yang to participate.
At that time, they all had a good relationship and the first three days of the graduation journey were quite pleasant.
But no one expected that so many things would happen on the last night.
Su Xingyao still remembers that his parents and Qin Mingchuan's parents suddenly came that night.
Qin Mingchuan, who received the news, drove to pick them up.
As a result, after the other party left, Fu Qingyan, who had just returned from diving, developed a low fever in the middle of the night.
Seeing that the other party was in bad condition, Su Xingyao wanted to send him to the hospital, but Fu Qingyan refused to go no matter what.
He had no choice but to go out and buy medicine for the other party.
When he came back, he saw a raging fire in the villa.
Then he saw Shen Huaixi, who was originally taking care of Fu Qingyan, rushing out of the sea of fire alone.
He didn't see Fu Qingyan anywhere, so he quickly went up to him and asked, "Where's Qingyan?"
Who knew that Shen Huaixi didn't say anything, and fainted inexplicably the next second.
The situation was so urgent at the time that he was worried that Fu Qingyan had fallen asleep and had no idea about the fire, so he quickly picked up the wet towel in Shen Huaixi's hand, covered his mouth and nose, and rushed directly into the sea of fire.
When he rushed to Fu Qingyan's room, just as he had guessed, the other party had fainted on the bed.
The fire is getting bigger and bigger. If you don't get out, you will die here.
Su Xingyao didn't know where the strength came from at that time. On the verge of life and death, he miraculously carried the other person on his back.
He no longer clearly remembers how he stumbled and carried the other person out of the room.
But deep in my memory, the pain of my skin being burned after accidentally touching the burning flames around me is still so real.
The journey down the stairs was not smooth, and his skin was covered with scars from the flames.
But he didn't dare to let go of the person behind him for a moment.
Because if he let go, he would no longer have the strength to carry Fu Qingyan on his back.
The other party will die in this sea of fire...
But he wished he could escape with his friends.
The fire spread quickly.
In just a few minutes, the fire on the first floor was so big that it flooded the path he had come from.
But fortunately, he was lucky and quickly found a window to escape.
Fu Qingyan was also safely sent out of the window by him.
And when he was about to jump out.
The huge burning painting on the second floor fell down and hit him hard on the back.
In an instant, the clothes and wood caught fire against his skin.
Su Xingyao's eyes went dark and she almost fainted from the pain.
But what is more terrible than the pain is...
His only way of escape at the time was blocked by this huge burning painting.
…
The memories resurfaced, and Su Xingyao could still feel the despair and pain she felt at that time.
But compared to the pain in his body, Fu Qingyan's attitude towards him afterwards really chilled him to the bone.
He finally jumped from the other side of the second floor of the villa.
When he woke up again, he was the only one in the hospital.
Later the nurse told him that because the place where he jumped was a blind spot, no one noticed it at first.
It was not until the next day that he was discovered and sent to the hospital.
His cell phone and passport all fell into the fire, and he was able to contact his family with the help of local police.
But after his parents learned of his experience, they never came to the hospital to see him.
Only when he was about to be discharged from the hospital did they send Aunt Liu to understand his condition and help him settle the hospital bill.
As for Fu Qingyan, whom he had always been worried about...
As soon as he woke up, he borrowed the nurse's phone and called to confirm the other party's safety.
As a result, every time I called, the other party never answered.
All the messages he sent fell on deaf ears.
After finally returning to China after a long period of trouble, he immediately noticed that Fu Qingyan had begun to distance himself from him for no reason.
Ignore, don't respond, don't pay attention, and don't meet.
Whenever they appear in the same situation, the other party will try every means to avoid him.
At that time, he couldn't understand why the other person seemed to hate him after he saved him.
During this period, he also approached Fu Qingyan to ask the reason, wanting to know if there was any misunderstanding.
But every time, before he could even say a few words, the other party would leave with a cold face.
This was how their relationship remained over the next few years.
Until now...
Except for the scar on his body that still reminded him of what had happened, it seemed as if everything had become a thing of the past.
As for the original truth and reasons.
Su Xingyao no longer had the heart to study.
*
After recording the show, Fu Qingyan did not go home, but found Qin Mingchuan.
After not seeing each other for a while, he found that Qin Mingchuan looked much more haggard than before.
He no longer had the high spirits he had in the past, and now looked like a wild beast healing itself alone after being injured.
He poured the other person a glass of wine and handed it to him, then started a conversation directly.
"I heard from my aunt that you haven't been home much recently."
No one knows what has gone wrong with Qin Mingchuan recently, and his relationship with his family has become extremely strained.
His parents didn't know the reason, so they asked him to find out in a tactful way.
After hearing Fu Qingyan's words, Qin Mingchuan did not take the wine, but raised his eyelids and glanced at him.
"Why, Mr. Fu, you're here to lobby for me too?"
Fu Qingyan put the wine in front of him with an innocent look on his face.
"Why should I be a lobbyist? Did you really have a falling out with your family?"
Qin Mingchuan waved his hand, obviously not wanting to say more.
"It's not enough to quarrel or even to make sarcastic remarks..."
But he really couldn't forgive the engagement.
In the past, he always thought that Su Xingyao wanted him to help him fight for the Shen family's property, so he used his identity as his own son to force both parents to change the terms of the marriage contract.
As a result, he only recently found out that it was his parents who took the initiative to propose replacing the person in the engagement with Shen's biological son Su Xingyao.
But no one explained this to him in detail back then.
As a result, he misunderstood Su Xingyao for many years.
Thinking of this, Qin Mingchuan felt even more unhappy.
He spoke in a muffled voice after he finished the glass of wine in front of him.
"I've been feeling down lately."
Ever since he last saw Su Xingyao at the SCG club, he has been living in this confused state.
Especially when he witnessed his love rival celebrating Su Xingyao's birthday, that scene has become a psychological shadow in his life.
He and Su Xingyao have known each other for nearly seven years, but he doesn't even know his birthday.
He didn't even know how to tell the other person that he liked her...
When Qin Mingchuan thought of these troubles, his mood obviously became depressed.
He was too lazy to say anything more to Fu Qingyan and just drank alone.
Fu Qingyan also had something on his mind. Instead of trying to persuade Qin Mingchuan, he started drinking with him.
He didn't know how long it had been before he heard Qin Mingchuan calling him.
"Old Master..."
I don’t know how much the person opposite me drank, but there is already a hint of drunkenness in his eyes.
The night wind messed up his hair. Qin Mingchuan murmured, "What a bastard I am... It's only now that I realize that for all these years, I have actually... always liked Xingyao."
Fu Qingyan also drank a lot.
Hearing Qin Mingchuan's low whisper, he almost thought he was hallucinating because he was drunk.
"Boss Qin, what are you talking about?"
Qin Mingchuan smiled self-deprecatingly, his depression in his heart urgently needed an outlet.
"It's ridiculous, isn't it? I hurt him for so many years, and only after he couldn't stand it anymore and left did I realize that I actually liked him."
Finally, he told his best friend the secret in his heart. Qin Mingchuan, who had been feeling depressed for a long time, didn't care about anything and poured out his heart to Fu Qingyan.
"I'm just an idiot..."
"Super big idiot!"
"I fell in love with him at first sight when we first met, but I kept denying it again and again."
"As a result, now there is someone around him..."
Thinking of Lu Jiuxu, Qin Mingchuan drank a glass of wine helplessly and unwillingly.
After that night, he finally knew the identity of the man next to Su Xingyao.
Lu Jiuxu...
Lu Tianyan's eldest son.
The first heir of Lu Group.
Even though she was pursuing him so blatantly, he couldn't even find where Su Xingyao lived.
Faced with such a powerful rival in love, Qin Mingchuan was extremely annoyed.
"That person is chasing him, and I... don't know what to do..."
"Xingyao doesn't even want to meet me or answer my calls."
Qin Mingchuan said so much in one go, and Fu Qingyan, who was sitting opposite him, just listened but didn't say a word.
After the other party had vented almost everything, he responded coldly.
"No wonder you've been acting so strange lately."
Fu Qingyan did not understand Qin Mingchuan's pain at all, and instead continued to pour a bucket of cold water on him.
"I don't care who you like, but can you be a little more normal?"
Fu Qingyan's cold words sobered up Qin Mingchuan, who was immersed in his own emo world.
He sat up straight and met the other person's gaze, and subconsciously protected Su Xingyao.
"My vision was indeed poor..."
Qin Mingchuan was referring to the fact that he had been watching Shen Huaixi through a filter for so many years.
After saying this sarcastically, he insisted in a strong tone, "But Xingyao is not bad."
"It's you, don't believe Shen Huaixi so blindly."
Qin Mingchuan saw the disdain in Fu Qingyan's eyes, and patiently told him what he knew.
“Shen Huaixi is not as simple as you think.”
Fu Qingyan raised his eyebrows, "Are you trying to say that Huaixi interfered in the movie star's affairs?"
Before Qin Mingchuan could speak, he added, "Isn't that just something the netizens said?"
Qin Mingchuan smiled.
"I checked it myself."
Fu Qingyan's action of pouring the wine paused noticeably.
"And Xingyao's situation in the Shen family may be different from what we know."
"He should not be having a good time in the Shen family."
Fu Qingyan didn't respond.
After several seconds, he said calmly, "That's none of my business."
He didn't like Su Xingyao and didn't want to know about the troubles he had in the Shen family.
Seeing that Fu Qingyan didn't want to talk, Qin Mingchuan didn't say anything else.
He filled his own glass with wine and clinked glasses with Fu Qingyan.
"Then tell me about it."
Fu Qingyan was puzzled, "What are you talking about?"
"What happened to you during the fire during your graduation trip?"
When talking about the fire, Fu Qingyan became obviously unhappy and his tone was not very polite.
"Aren't you asking even though you already know the answer?"
After saying that, he still felt unhappy, "Or, Mr. Qin, did you come here today to cause trouble for me on purpose?"
The fire almost killed him and caused him to lose the leading actor in the movie that was very important to him...
He never wanted to mention it in his life, and he could never forgive it.
"Don't be so nervous. I just want to ask, is it possible that you and Xingyao also had a misunderstanding back then? After all, I only found out about it recently..."
Before Qin Mingchuan finished speaking, Fu Qingyan interrupted him, "The initial point of the fire was in Su Xingyao's room."
Qin Mingchuan sighed helplessly when he saw Fu Qingyan so excited.
"Even if it was his room, it doesn't prove anything. He wasn't there at the time."
Fu Qingyan felt that he could no longer communicate with Qin Mingchuan, and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"You like him now, so of course you will protect him everywhere."
He thought Qin Mingchuan was ridiculous.
When I didn’t like Su Xingyao before, I never doubted anything.
Now that I like each other, I choose to trust each other unconditionally in everything.
Even something as certain as a fire, he tried to make himself, the victim, accept the other party.
But, is it possible?
"Qin Mingchuan, you are not the one who encountered this incident, so you can mention it so lightly."
"But have you ever thought about this? I was unconscious in bed at the time. If Huaixi hadn't come to rescue me in time, do you think I would have had the chance to drink with you here today?"
He put down the wine glass in his hand heavily and his eyes fell on Qin Mingchuan's face.
"No matter how you look at Su Xingyao, to me, he is just a heartless, cold, irresponsible, selfish person."
Fu Qingyan's chest rose and fell rapidly several times.
He could forgive Su Xingyao for not coming to rescue him after seeing the fire.
After all, with such a big fire, not everyone has the courage to mock Shen Huaixi, rush into the sea of fire in danger, and save him at all costs without caring about his life.
But he could not forgive Su Xingyao for her negligence when she went out, which caused a short circuit in the electrical appliances. After the fire, the other party kept disappearing and could not be found at all!
He was unwilling to believe it at first.
So during the time he was in the hospital, he was always waiting for the other party to come and give him an explanation or an apology.
But until he was discharged from the hospital, the other party never came to see him once! !
Not only did he not come, he didn't even call!
What was even more difficult for him to accept was that the other party disappeared for such a long time, but in the end, after everything was over, he reappeared in front of him as if nothing had happened.
But he was trying to get Shen Huaixi to help him hide this matter behind his back where he couldn't see!
Fu Qingyan raised his arms.
The scar is no longer visible.
But at that time...his hand was almost broken because of the fire.
Even his nascent career... was completely ruined because of this accident.
How can he forgive this?
He woke up countless times late at night and asked himself this question.
Why could someone whom he once regarded as a soul mate be so heartless?
Thinking about what had happened in the past, Fu Qingyan still couldn't calm himself down.
Over the years, he has tried his best not to think about it again.
For Su Xingyao, indifference was the last bit of decency he could give to her.
Today, Qin Ming opened his wounds again, and Fu Qingyan took his anger out on him.
He felt that he couldn't continue chatting with the other party, so he stood up and left.
Fu Qingyan did not go home directly, but walked along the river.
In the night breeze, he recalled his past with Su Xingyao.
The first time I heard the name Yue Shuang was when I heard my friends teasing Qin Mingchuan.
At that time, everyone was saying that Young Master Qin had fallen on hard times recently, and he went to the "Frost Beauty" next door like a madman every day to show off his peacock tail.
When he heard this name, he originally thought that the other party was a girl who had fascinated Qin Mingchuan to no end.
But when they accompanied Qin Mingchuan to sneak into the neighboring school to watch the commendation ceremony, they found out that the incredibly beautiful student representative who was speaking on the flagpole was the legendary "Frost Beauty".
At that time, Su Xingyao was wearing a white shirt neatly.
He tucked the hem of his shirt into his pants, and his waist was too thin to look like a boy's.
At first glance, she stood out beautifully in the crowd.
All the friends around me were whistling and shouting "Frost Beauty".
Fu Qingyan didn't go with him.
He actually doesn't like these well-behaved people very much.
When he met Su Xingyao for the first time, he thought that she was just a good student who was good-looking but had no interest in romance.
This impression remained for some time.
Until he and Su Xingyao met by chance at an art exhibition.
This art exhibition is curated by a very small foreign artist.
There weren't many people coming, so he was a little surprised when he saw the other person in the exhibition hall.
When they met again in Qin Mingchuan's group's office in the evening, he took the initiative to talk to the other party about today's art exhibition.
This chat lasted for several hours.
We talked about art exhibitions, songs and then movies.
Then he discovered that the other person was not a bookworm.
On the contrary, he is very talented in art and has many of the same interests and hobbies as me.
So it was natural for them to get to know each other.
Once upon a time, Fu Qingyan regarded the other person as the muse in his heart.
Because when he said he wanted to be a movie actor, everyone around him thought that the best path for him was to study abroad and then come back to inherit the family property.
Only Su Xingyao firmly supported him.
He still remembered what the other party had told him.
“No one can influence your decision. Only you can judge whether the decision is right or wrong at the moment.”
"But if one day in the future you win the Best Actor trophy, I will applaud you in front of the screen and proudly tell everyone."
"I am Fu Qingyan's first fan. I knew he would be an award-winning actor before he even made his debut!"
Fu Qingyan stopped and looked into the distance.
What happened to the people who once said these words in the end?
*
After Su Xingyao returned home, she quickly changed out of her doll costume.
After a quick shower, he found his back itchy and painful.
When he looked in the mirror, he found that there were a lot of red bumps on his face.
Su Xingyao has sensitive skin and cannot feel this kind of pain or itchiness.
He was so itchy that he couldn't fall asleep late at night, but he didn't dare to scratch it, so he had to go downstairs to find medicine in the medicine box.
He remembered that Aunt Zhang had bought this kind of medicine before, and he had helped her sort it out.
Sure enough, after Su Xingyao opened the medicine box, she found the anti-itching ointment inside.
Just as Su Xingyao was about to take the ointment back to the dormitory, she saw Lu Jiuxu coming back from working overtime.
Lu Jiuxu was a little surprised, "Why haven't you slept yet?"
Su Xingyao stopped, turned around and looked at the other person.
"I can't sleep because of the itch..."
After saying that, he ran straight to Lu Jiuxu.
"Mr. Lu, you're back just in time."
With her back to Lu Jiuxu, Su Xingyao lifted the hem of her clothes slightly.
"Could you please help me apply the medicine?"
