Chapter 77 Lin Lichong and Ying Haishu reconcile + Yu Nian's sad past
"Was that child my son?"
The lounge was very quiet. Lin Lichong's resounding questions were clearly heard by Ying Haishu, causing his heart to tighten suddenly and filled with intense fear.
Lin Lichong knows!
Will he suspect that Yu Nian is his son?
Ying Haishu was trembling all over because of nervousness.
His mind was in a mess and he was completely unable to think calmly.
Lin Lichong's scrutinizing gaze fell on him, not missing any subtle expression on his face.
He could clearly feel that Ying Haishu was very nervous.
It seems that his guess was correct!
"Ashu, that child is my son!"
Lin Lichong held Ying Haishu's shoulders and forced him to look into his eyes: "You were pregnant with our child at that time."
His excited voice awakened Ying Haishu's thoughts, but at the same time it also awakened the pain that had been buried deep in his heart for more than 20 years.
After so many years, he was almost driven crazy by the pain!
In the two years after his child passed away, he suffered from severe depression.
After a long period of treatment in the hospital, there was no improvement. During this period, he attempted suicide twice. If he had not been discovered by his assistant, he would probably be dead now.
In order to cure depression, he tried many methods.
Finally, he went to the mountainous area to teach for five years.
Seeing those children who don’t have enough food to eat and have no access to education are still full of hope for life.
He walked out slowly!
Those children are his sunshine, telling him how wonderful the world is.
After coming out of the mountains, he set up a foundation and built a school in the mountains.
Ying Haishu closed his eyes and tried hard to get rid of the painful memories.
He waved away Lin Lichong's hand on his shoulder, his voice extremely cold: "Yes! That child is your son."
Lin Lichong's eyes were filled with joy: "Ashu——"
But before his joyful voice could spread out, Ying Haishu interrupted him: "He's dead!"
Lin Lichong's eyes trembled, and his heart felt like it was stabbed by a knife, leaving a bloody hole.
"Children...children..."
Lin Lichong's pale lips trembled violently. He really didn't have the courage to say those two cruel words.
Ying Haishu knew that this was the only chance to dispel Lin Lichong's suspicion.
He took a step forward and looked directly into the man's trembling eyes. "After the operation, I saw a dead baby. He was blue all over, and there was no sign of breathing. He was dead! He died at birth."
His son is dead! Lin Lichong's vision went black and his body was shaking.
He closed his eyes in pain, sadness all over his body.
Ying Haishu looked at his clenched fist at his side. The veins on his fist were popping out, which showed how much pain Lin Lichong was in.
He did not feel any pleasure from revenge, but instead felt extremely guilty.
He shouldn't have lied to Lin Lichong, but he had no choice!
Now the Lin family has no heir. After Yu Nian’s identity is exposed, Lin Li Chong will recognize him back into the Lin family and let Chen Zixian be his mother.
They will be a happy family.
And he would lose his son again.
Ying Haishu never wanted to experience the heart-wrenching pain of losing his beloved son again.
He would rather choose to conceal it than disclose Yu Nian's life experience.
"Lin Lichong, the child is gone! The bond between us is gone too."
Ying Haishu endured the waves of heartache and said, "We're really over. Don't come to me again."
"Who said we're done?"
Lin Lichong hugged Ying Haishu tightly and said, "Ah Shu, we won't end this, ever. I'm sorry about the child! I really didn't know!"
If he knew, he would never let Ying Haishu suffer alone.
"What happened in the past is in the past. I don't want to talk about it anymore."
Ying Haishu wanted to break free from Lin Lichong's arms, but found that he was holding her very tightly.
He sighed and said, "Lin Lichong, please let me go! You have a new life and a wife. It's really not suitable for us to be together."
"I don't have a wife."
Lin Lichong held Ying Haishu's shoulders, looking directly into his eyes with red eyes: "If the wife you are talking about is Chen Zixian, then I tell you clearly now that the relationship between her and me is not what you think."
Ying Haishu looked at him blankly, "You're not married?"
Lin Lichong spoke each word with great seriousness, "I have nothing to do with her. I have never touched her."
"But you had children."
Ying Haishu's eyes were filled with doubt: "Lin Lichong, you still want to lie to me!"
"I didn't lie to you. Chen Zixian and I are really not married."
Lin Lichong felt that he had to make things clear, otherwise Ying Haishu would continue to misunderstand him.
"Back then, Chen Zixian bribed the doctor who performed my physical examination, stole my sperm, and became pregnant. She didn't show up until she was seven months pregnant. By then, the child was too far to abort. My mother knew about this and had no choice but to let her give birth to the child."
Lin Lichong clenched his fists until they creaked. "From the beginning to the end, I never touched her. Ever since she entered the Lin family, I left Kyoto. For so many years, I have been living abroad."
Ying Haishu never imagined that there was such a hidden story back then.
He looked dazed and didn't know what to say or write.
"Ashu, I don't remember a lot of things from the past. I don't know what happened to me? Why did I forget you and our child? But I know that you will always be in my heart."
Lin Lichong held Ying Haishu's face, stared into his eyes and said, "The first time I saw you, I had feelings for you. That feeling is so strong that it reminds me all the time to be with you."
Ying Haishu struggled deeply in his heart.
Reason told him that he should stay away from Lin Li Chong, but he could not control his heart that wanted to get close to him.
"Ashu, give me a chance and let me prove to you that I really love you."
Lin Lichong had no way to let Ying Haishu go.
After knowing that they had a child, he could not let Ying Haishu leave him.
For the rest of his life, he would make it up to this man.
Ying Haishu was in a state of confusion. "I don't know... I don't know what to do! Lin Lichong, don't push me! I can't give you any answer right now."
Lin Lichong saw his pain and struggle and couldn't bear to continue forcing him.
He embraced Ying Haishu's trembling body and said in a gentle tone, "Ah Shu, I won't force you. I'll give you time to accept me and recognize me."
Lin Lichong hugged Ying Haishu and slowly let go.
"Don't hide from me anymore, let's date normally. You can watch how I perform, and if I perform well, you can be with me again."
Lin Lichong's tone was full of flattery, without any trace of his former dominance.
His gentleness was like a net that wrapped tightly around Ying Haishu, making it impossible for her to break free.
He gradually fell into despair and nodded in agreement uncontrollably.
*
The potato chip advertisement made Yu Nian completely known to the public, and even children knew his name.
The company struck while the iron was hot and withdrew from the second endorsement.
Although the videos and daily necessities are not accessible to the general public, they still attract many female fans.
“Rice Cake Color Number” suddenly appeared.
The lipstick endorsed by Yu Dai was sold out as soon as it was put on the shelves.
Fans lamented: Another one that’s not available for purchase!
Scalpers are extremely active on second-hand websites. A lipstick that originally cost over 200 yuan was sold for 800 yuan, but it is still difficult to buy.
With the broadcast of "The Legend of Qin", Yu Nian's popularity has increased and he has become a popular young actor.
A pair of greedy and vicious eyes stared at the TV in front of him. When Yu Nian's figure appeared, the man cursed fiercely: "This bastard is so red now!"
The woman next to the man complained, "I told you not to break off relations with him and let him support us from now on. But you insisted on posting a notice at the village entrance for that little bit of demolition compensation. Now look, he doesn't have to pay a penny in child support."
The man spat fiercely, "I've raised him for so many years. Now that he's rich, he has to take care of me. If he dares not, I'll expose him to the media."
"You're not his biological father, and it won't do us any good even if this matter is exposed."
"We are adoptive parents, and the grace of raising a child is greater than the grace of giving birth to one. If it weren't for us, the little brat would still be in the orphanage. Would he be able to go to school in the city? Would he have the opportunity to become an actor? His current achievements are all thanks to us."
"We have an adoptive relationship with him, but don't forget, it was us who wanted to end the adoption."
The woman advised, "Let's call him back first so we can talk it over."
"That bastard won't give us money voluntarily."
"Let's ask him first. If he doesn't want to, we'll think of other ways."
"What can we do?"
"Now we don't have any leverage over him, but he has leverage over us. If this gets out of hand, it won't be good for us."
The woman lowered her voice and whispered to the man, "Let's trick him back first. If he doesn't agree to pay, we'll sell him. He's so handsome, and he's a well-known actor now. Sell him to Boss Chen and let him take some photos. This is the bargaining chip to threaten Yu Nian. Are you still afraid that he won't pay us in the future?"
The man was delighted: "That's a good idea."
"I'll call him in a minute. Don't make a sound. I'll try to trick him back."
The woman took out her phone and found the number Yu Nian had left behind. “Luckily, I didn’t delete his number then, otherwise, it would be really hard to get it back.”
The woman called Yu Nian.
Yu Nian came out of the studio and had just gotten into the nanny car when his cell phone rang.
A number was flashing on the screen, making him feel nervous.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally answered the call.
Before he could say anything, a woman's crying voice came from the receiver: "Woo! Nian Nian, is that you?"
Yu Nian recognized the voice as Liu Meihua's.
He whispered, "Aunt Liu, what can I do for you?"
After severing the relationship, An Guomin and Liu Meihua no longer allowed him to call them mom and dad.
"Niannian, something happened to your father. I was really at my wit's end, so I called you."
Liu Meihua cried very sadly: "Your brother is still young, and I am the only one at home now. Can you help me?"
Yu Nian pursed his lips and remained silent.
"Niannian, we were wrong back then. We shouldn't have treated you like that. Please don't hold grudges against us. I really have no other choice, so I called you."
Liu Meihua burst into tears and apologized repeatedly on the phone: "Think about it, if it weren't for me and your father, you would still be in the orphanage. We have our own child, so it's normal to be partial. After all, we have raised you for so many years. Even if we don't have any credit, we have worked hard!"
Although Liu Meihua and An Guomin were not very close, they did raise him.
Yu Nian finally agreed: "I'll go over now."
After the call ended, Yu Nian leaned back in his chair, his thoughts returning to the past.
He was released from an orphanage when he was three years old and was adopted by Liu Meihua and An Guomin.
At first, the two were quite nice to him, but later when Liu Meihua finally became pregnant, their attitude towards him changed drastically.
After his younger brother was born, he became a slave in the family.
He does all the housework and started cooking when he was eight years old.
When he was twelve years old, he was taken by An Guomin to work in an illegal coal mine.
He was very obedient and did whatever he was told just to get a chance to go to school.
When he was taking the high school entrance exam, An Guomin refused to let him go no matter what and forced him to drop out and go out to work.
Yu Nian stole his ID from home, hid in the county town, and found a black workshop to work as a child laborer.
He went to school only after he saved enough money.
An Guomin's old house was demolished, and to prevent him from getting a share of the property, a notice was posted at the village entrance. It said that he often beat his parents, stole money and things, and now they were severing their father-son relationship with him.
Public opinion forced him to come back and sign a severance statement.
From then on, he became a human being again.
Yu Nian left the village and started looking for a job.
He worked part-time while studying and finally made it to university.
When he was in college, he was handing out flyers and met a scout from Guangxu Media.
At that time, he knew nothing and only knew that he could make money in the entertainment industry.
In order to live a good life, he plunged in, but he didn't expect it to be another pit of fire.
If he hadn't met Yu Jinyan, his life would still be dark.
Yu Jinyan is his sun, giving him warmth and hope!
The author has something to say
Yu Kongque will never let Nian Nian be in danger!
