☆、Chapter 171 Finale
Wen Mianyu didn't know whether Lu Yuxuan's behavior was because she noticed Lu Congxu's investigation, or was just an impulse after being drunk, or maybe... she couldn't stand her and Lu Congxu being together for a long time, so she took advantage of the alcohol to explode.
Regardless of the reason, the purpose is self-evident. Just like when she hired the truck driver, Lu Yuxuan wanted her to die.
"Is it because Yuxuan likes you?" Wen Mianyu thought about it and this was the only explanation.
Lu Congxu couldn't think of any other explanation either, so he nodded slightly in agreement, "I didn't notice it before, but after filming together, I noticed something and kept avoiding her."
Wen Mianyu sighed, not knowing what to say.
Both of them fell silent.
After waiting for a while, the traffic police finished taking the statement and two policemen brought Lu Yuxuan over.
In addition to drunk driving, Lu Yuxuan's behavior tonight also raised suspicions of intentional homicide. The traffic police have completed their record, and the rest needs to be questioned at the police station.
Lu Congxu had greeted Lu Yuxuan before and wanted to say a few words to her, so he asked the police to finish taking the traffic police part of the statement and give him some time.
The leader of the police team was Lu Congxu's friend, so of course he would not refuse to help, so he brought the person over as promised.
"I'll give you ten minutes. Let's talk quickly. We're waiting to pack up." The leading sheriff leaned against the car and raised his eyebrows at Lu Congxu.
"Don't worry." Lu Congxu made an OK gesture to him.
The sheriff left with his team members and returned to the police car, keeping an eye on this side.
Wen Mianyu gestured to Lu Yuxuan to invite her in. "Let's get in the car and talk."
Lu Yuxuan glanced at her and got into the car.
Lu Congxu went to the front passenger seat.
Wen Mianyu was the last to get into the car and closed the door.
"Do you have anything to say?" Wen Mianyu broke the silence and asked Lu Yuxuan.
It was only twenty minutes, and she didn't want to spend it in silence without asking anything.
Lu Congxu also looked at Lu Yuxuan, waiting for what would happen next.
Lu Yuxuan ignored Wen Mianyu and looked directly at Lu Congxu, "Brother Congxu, I will only answer your questions."
"I think there should be nothing wrong with me. Your behavior is already the most honest result. There is no need for me to verify anything further." Lu Congxu looked cold, and his eyes were full of indifference when he looked at Lu Yuxuan.
Lu Yuxuan showed a hint of hurt, "Yeah, you never bothered to talk to me. In the past, you cared about Wen Mianyu, but now, you care about that crazy girl next to me."
"..." Wen Mianyu. Was she being scolded twice in a row?
"Why can't it be me? Why? I love you so much!" Lu Yuxuan couldn't help crying and buried her face in her hands. "Why, even though Wen Mianyu died, you still refused to love me? Why can someone as crazy as Su Moli get you? Why! I don't understand!"
"I don't understand either. You're going to hurt someone I like, right?" Lu Congxu couldn't sympathize with her pitiful appearance. "I also liked someone before, and I once thought she liked someone else, but I never wanted to hurt her. I just wanted her to be happy."
When saying this, Lu Congxu looked at Wen Mianyu, with tenderness in his eyes and eyebrows.
Wen Mianyu originally wanted to say something to Lu Yuxuan, but when he looked at her like that, she felt her heart melt, and for a moment she couldn't get angry about what had just happened.
Forget it, they are just love-brained fools, there is no need for her to be angry.
"I don't want to hurt you, I just want you to love me. I thought you would belong to me if Wen Mianyu died!" Lu Yuxuan roared.
However, Lu Congxu no longer wanted to say anything to her and turned away in disappointment.
"I just have one question." Wen Mianyu took over and asked Lu Yuxuan, "Did you attack me because you knew that Cong Xu was investigating you, or did you simply want to repeat your old trick?"
Lu Yuxuan looked at her hatefully and refused to speak.
"There's nothing more to say. Take care of yourself." Lu Congxu opened the car door and gestured to the sheriff in the distance.
The sheriff got out of the police car and walked over here.
"Brother Congxu..." Lu Yuxuan suddenly panicked and grabbed the car door, not wanting to leave like that.
"Answer her question." Lu Congxu looked at her coldly.
Lu Yuxuan pouted in grievance and bit her lower lip unwillingly, "Then I have a question too."
"You ask." Lu Congxu said.
"If Su Moli hadn't appeared, would you like me?" Lu Yuxuan looked at him.
"No." Lu Congxu answered without hesitation, "I like someone, not because I don't have someone else. I don't like someone, but I won't compromise because I don't have someone else."
Lu Yuxuan burst into tears again.
"It's your turn to answer." Lu Congxu said.
"I...I know you're investigating me and have already traced it back to my dad. I know you won't let me go even if I don't do anything." Lu Yuxuan asked with a last glimmer of hope, "Really?"
"Yes." Lu Congxu said without hesitation.
Lu Yuxuan seemed to have lost all her strength and slid down.
The sheriff and two police officers came and took her away.
Wen Mianyu watched the police car drive away, feeling mixed emotions.
She also thought that the truck driver's behavior was suspicious, but she never thought that it was Lu Yuxuan who did it.
Now that her heart knot has been untied, she doesn't feel completely relieved. The culprits of her car accident turned out to be two love-brained people. She really doesn't know what to say.
"Don't think about it. It's her own choice." Lu Congxu saw her disappointment, put his arm on her shoulder and patted her comfortingly.
"Yeah." Wen Mianyu leaned into his arms and held his arm. "Don't think about these things. The award ceremony is the day after tomorrow. Sister Hong just sent me a message asking me to prepare clothes for tomorrow. We can wear couple outfits."
"Okay." Lu Congxu turned around and kissed her on the forehead. "After the award ceremony, we'll take a break and go on vacation abroad."
"Okay." Wen Mianyu agreed very much. "Before, I didn't have much private time because of work. This time, I can't just focus on work anymore. I should spend more time on love."
"Yeah." Lu Congxu said.
…
After the show "This is the Actor" ended, Wen Mianyu's popularity soared. In addition, the premiere of "Youth" had a considerable box office, and she was nominated for several Golden Flower Awards, making Wen Mianyu the hottest and most popular star of the year.
For a time, the media rushed to report, and news about Wen Mianyu was overwhelming. Various invitations came in one after another. Wen Mianyu became the new darling of the media, and was active in various variety shows and was busy for several days in a row.
That day, she finally found time to go back to Qingzhu Island with Lu Congxu.
This is the first time the two have revisited their old home since they confirmed their relationship.
Because of the popularity of the movie, the director also became popular. The Wen family's old house became a new check-in spot for internet celebrities, and several movie shooting locations also became places where fans competed to experience.
The island was unusually popular, and all the shops were doing good business. It was already afternoon when Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu arrived on the island. Outside the Wen family's old house, there were a bunch of people, who were not sure whether they were fans or internet celebrities, taking pictures.
It’s called punching in.
When the two of them got closer, they realized that most of these people were fans. A bunch of little girls surrounded Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu, and they were all excited and asked them for autographs.
Some say they are fans of Wen Mianyu, some say they are fans of Lu Congxu, and some say they are CP fans of the two, and they especially like the pink interactions between the two.
These CP fans are obviously the most excited. Seeing their favorite couples having a sweet island tour together, is there anything that could make them feel more excited than this?
A group of fans surrounded Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu and chattered. The two people who were used to big scenes almost couldn't handle it. The main reason was that they were rarely recognized by so many people without bodyguards. The two of them signed autographs and took photos at the same time, and finally managed to appease the enthusiasm of the fans and successfully enter the old house.
Fortunately, it was afternoon and there weren't many tourists on the island, otherwise they would be recognized and surrounded by more people. Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu wouldn't have to go into the old house, and they would have to sign autographs until dark.
The old house hasn't changed much compared to before, and it's still the same as when the crew left.
Director Lin is an upright person and his work is impeccable. After he left, he even hired someone to clean up the old house. The old house did not become dirty or messy because of the arrival of the crew, but was particularly clean.
This time when she revisited the old place, her mood had changed compared to before. Wen Mianyu took out some small gadgets from the room that she did not take away when she left the island. This time she planned to take all of them away.
It was also during the packing process that Wen Mianyu recalled many past events. She took out the pencil case she used in high school and showed it to Lu Congxu.
"What?" Lu Congxu looked at her, not understanding what she meant.
"I brought the love letter back with me in my pencil case," Wen Mianyu explained.
Lu Congxu was stunned for a moment before she realized what she meant by love letter. She couldn't help but laugh, "I misunderstood you at that time."
Wen Mianyu is very vindictive and has held a grudge for such a long time.
Wen Mianyu knew what he was thinking from his expression and said, "I'm not holding a grudge against you. I'm just wondering, if this love letter was originally written to you, would you have misunderstood that I was interested in you?"
This hypothesis was quite interesting. The more Wen Mianyu thought about it, the more interesting it became. "Would you agree right then and there? Wow, the girl I have a crush on also happens to like me. Isn't this a perfect match?"
Lu Congxu was helpless with her strange ideas and said, "I don't think so. The main reason is that you didn't show any sign of liking me at the time. Even if I saw the love letter, I probably wouldn't be so confident as to misunderstand it."
The reason why he misunderstood Ye Qianan was because he felt that Wen Mianyu and Ye Qianan were childhood sweethearts and also senior and junior brothers and sisters, and seemed very close.
Because he had this preconceived notion in his mind, he would misunderstand this aspect. He never thought that Wen Mianyu would like him, so naturally he would not misunderstand such a thing.
"Besides, I received quite a few love letters, and many were forwarded to me by others. I should be aware that you were forwarding them on behalf of others." Lu Congxu added.
"Brother Congxu, do you want me to be jealous or envious?" Wen Mianyu glared at him, "Actually, I've received a lot of love letters too."
Wen Mianyu realized that her words were so misleading and said, "No, I'm just talking about the facts."
"Okay, I won't misunderstand you in the future. You know who I like now, right?" Wen Mianyu held the box.
"Yeah." Lu Congxu nodded and held her hand.
Everything is implied.
The person I like is in front of me and in my heart.
…
On the day of the Golden Flower Awards, countless media and fans were present. Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu walked hand in hand across the red carpet, and fans outside cheered.
After arriving at the backstage, the award ceremony began. Youth swept the awards, winning Best Director and Best Actor.
The Best Actress award was at the end. When the performance clip of Wen Mianyu was scrolling on the big screen, the most nervous person in the audience was not Wen Mianyu, but Lu Congxu.
Finally, when the host read out the three words "Su Moli", the audience burst into applause.
Wen Mianyu held up her skirt and went on stage to receive the award.
Accepting the trophy from the guest, she smiled and kissed it, then faced the camera and the audience and said, "Thank you everyone, thank you to the entire crew, and thank you to the judges and organizers of the Golden Flower Awards. It is because of everyone's joint efforts that I have the opportunity to receive this award."
"Of course, the person I need to thank the most is my mentor, my life partner, Emperor Lu." Wen Mianyu changed the subject, looking through the crowd at Lu Congxu in the audience. "It was him, my childhood sweetheart, who grew up with me. It was him who never left me and helped me when I was in trouble. It was also him, with his loyalty and deep affection, who embraced me with his heart amidst all the misunderstandings, so that I didn't miss this love."
"In the past, I was a very career-oriented person. I worked 360 days a year. I never thought about falling in love, and I didn't know what it felt like to like someone."
"It wasn't until I discovered Mr. Lu's feelings that I realized that liking someone sometimes happens subtly, without you even realizing it."
"Thank you Mr. Lu for your love, your affection, your tolerance, and your companionship."
"I'd like to take this opportunity to be a little corny and express my love to Mr. Lu. I hope we can stay together forever and stay together until we grow old."
"Thank you everyone."
Wen Mianyu bowed to the audience and blew a kiss towards Lu Congxu.
Lu Congxu had already stood up from the crowd, and his eyes met hers through the sea of people.
The camera turned to Lu Congxu, and he had a microphone in his hand at some point.
Lu Congxu held the microphone in his left hand, reached into his suit pocket with his right hand, and took out a silver jewelry box.
Wen Mianyu opened her eyes wide.
The people around were stunned for a moment and the whole audience screamed.
"I originally wanted to complete this ceremony after the dinner, on the romantic beach, with the sound of fireworks." Lu Congxu smiled and walked onto the stage step by step, his eyes never leaving her until he walked beside her and knelt on one knee.
"But I suddenly feel that now is the most romantic time. Mianmian, will you marry me?"
Lu Congxu opened the jewelry box, and the sparkling diamond ring inside was extremely dazzling under the light.
Wen Mianyu had never been so surprised. She felt happy, touched, and at a loss. All kinds of emotions intertwined, and finally, they turned into a firm voice.
"Okay." Wen Mianyu said this word very solemnly and held out her hand, "I do."
The love in Lu Congxu's eyes melted instantly. He took Wen Mianyu's hand and helped her put the ring on her with great solemnity.
Wen Mianyu pulled him to his feet, and the two of them intertwined their fingers, held each other tightly, turned around together, and accepted the cheers and blessings from the audience side by side.
Then, amid everyone's cheers, they hugged and kissed each other.
For the rest of my life, you will be with me.
