And that young man with the hat had come to the side of the man.

Young Master Qi didn’t ask much.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

After all, in their circle, it’s normal to find a substitute or a little lover.

Young Master Qi asked again: “Is it true that Young Master He won’t come tomorrow? We haven’t gathered together for a long time.” 7VKXw4

He Yang just replied: “I may not come.”

After speaking, He Yang then looked at the young man beside him, “What’s the matter?”

Qin Zhou: “I’m going back.”

“I’ll see you off.”

GKyHhE

He Yang turned around and sent Qin Zhou back first.

Seeing that He Yang was walking away, Young Master Qi asked Shen XiuZhu: “Who is that person next to Young Master He? He and YanYan really look alike…….”

“I don’t know.” Shen XiuZhu lowered his head slightly, hiding the moodiness in his eyes, “It seems to be a star or something.”

Young Master Qi nodded, but didn’t take it to heart. 1fDqpL

It was just a little star.

In the car.

Qin Zhou leaned on the back of the seat and closed his eyes, resting. BDYnAU

He Yang was beside him and asked: “There is a party tomorrow, do you want to come?”

Qin Zhou frowned slightly, and said slowly: “This is your party. Don’t call me.”

He Yang: “It’s just to introduce you to others.”

Qin Zhou opened his eyes, he didn’t make a sound. k3xbof

He and He Yang belong to two different living classes, and the resources and connections in their hands were also completely different.

Although in the past, he was brought and stayed by He Yang’s side as a substitute lover, but He Yang did bring him to make friends with many important people.

And now that he was a star, he needed such contacts even more.

It’s just that…… FK71P3

Qin Zhou thought that when he was taken to parties by He Yang in the past, every time someone would act deliberately ambiguous in front of him.

So Qin Zhou said: “Forget it, I won’t go over to get bullied.”

Qin Zhou closed his eyes and continued to rest.

Not long after, the car stopped outside the dormitory apartment. DQd0qO

It’s just that when Qin Zhou was about to get out of the car, his wrist was pulled.

He Yang held the young man’s hand and said in a low voice: “I’m sorry.”

“I won’t let you be bullied in the future.”

He Yang lowered his head slightly and leaned over, as if he wanted to hug him. 6sRu5P

“Don’t always apologize.” Qin Zhou pushed the man in front of him away, “It’s meaningless.”

He Yang: “I won’t go there tomorrow night, I will accompany you.”

“Are you going to have s*x? Then remember to bring a condom.”

After speaking, Qin Zhou got out of the car and went back to the dormitory alone. mhOiUe

The one-person apartment was still a bit deserted. Qin Zhou took off his hat, went to the window and opened the curtains, only to see that He Yang’s car was still parked downstairs and did not leave.

Qin Zhou ignored the car, went back to the living room, and cleaned up the room.

It was until the evening, and when Qin Zhou went to the window again, the car had already left.

Qin Zhou took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Jiang Lin. mnXfCw

Not long after, Jiang Lin came over for dinner.

Jiang Lin also carried several bags of ingredients in his hand. He put them on the table, and hurriedly walked towards Qin Zhou.

“Just two or three days.”

Qin Zhou said, put on his apron, and went to the kitchen with the ingredients first. ER1P4a

Jiang Lin also followed in the kitchen to watch, and then murmured: “Brother Zhou, I went to the haunted house last week!”

Qin Zhou asked casually, “Did you go alone?”

“Yuan Lie accompanied me.”

“Is it fun?” heyFOJ

“It’s fun! It’s quite exciting!” Jiang Lin nodded quickly, “Brother Zhou, when will you finish shooting? I’ll take you to play!”

Qin Zhou smiled and asked: “Didn’t you already have fun? Do you still want to play?”

“Playing once is not enough!” Jiang Lin shook his head, “Last time, Yuan Lie and I went a bit late, and there are still many attractions that we haven’t played yet.”

Qin Zhou said, “Wait until I finish shooting.” MXqLv

“Okay!”

Qin Zhou prepared dinner and ate with Jiang Lin.

Although there were only two of them, Qin Zhou still cooked a lot of dishes and made a big pot of stir-fried pork with green peppers.

Qin Zhou divided the stir-fried pork with green pepper into two portions, one large and one small, and packed the large portion separately, and said, “You take this back home, and you can reheat it tomorrow.” VQ4X8v

Jiang Lin nodded quickly.

He was a picky eater, and was not used to eating out, and he only liked Qin Zhou’s cooking.

After the two had dinner, Jiang Lin lay on the sofa, hugged the pillow, and asked, “Brother Zhou, do you want to watch the drama tonight? I looked at the official Weibo and it said that the first episode will be online tonight.”

Qin Zhou asked: “Which one?” Z1D8tS

Jiang Lin said a name, and Qin Zhou remembered that it was the Chinese Republican Era drama he and Su Tang acted in, and it was about to be released today.

Previously, the film crew also asked him to cooperate with the promotion, but he gave his Weibo account to the agent, and the account was managed by the agent for him to cooperate with forwarding and so on.

The Chinese Republican Era drama had been finished for a long time, and Qin Zhou was also a little curious about how the finished product of this drama had been changed.

It was originally just a romantic drama in the Chinese Republican Era, but because of the investor He Yang, it was abruptly changed into a mystery thriller drama. cH2eGN

Qin Zhou took the laptop out and waited for the first episode with Jiang Lin.

The first episode started on time at 8:00 p.m. Jiang Lin kept clicking to refresh and when the first episode came out; he couldn’t wait to click in.

The opening credits were over a minute long.

Sometimes the quality of a drama could be judged based on the quality of the opening credits. TQxlDd

Generally speaking, due to the low production cost of online dramas, the quality of the opening credits was not very high.

It’s just that when Qin Zhou saw the opening credits, he was a little startled.

The opening song was very nice. It should be that the crew specially hired a singer. Even the editing of the opening was very good, and the various transitions were very natural.

After the end of the opening credits, it was the opening of the drama. M6LDx0

At the beginning of the first episode, it was a funeral.

No one made a sound at the funeral, just the sound of rain in the background; the raindrops were falling without stopping.

Everyone stood by the coffin until there was the sound of footsteps, and it was the male protagonist who appeared.

Qin Zhou stared at the screen. However, it was probably because he acted in this drama and knew all the plots behind it, so he was a little bored watching the finished product. VvLg37

Qin Zhou propped his head up, not interested in the plot, but admired the post-editing. It looked like it was hired at a high price, and the online drama was produced at a movie level.

Qin Zhou looked at the screen for a while, and then couldn’t help but look at Jiang Lin next to him.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Jiang Lin watched it very seriously and was totally absorbed in it.

After the first episode ended, Jiang Lin couldn’t wait for the second episode, so he hurriedly asked, “Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, who is the murderer?” PXYFEJ

Originally, Jiang Lin just asked casually, thinking that Qin Zhou would not spoil him.

It’s just that Qin Zhou replied directly: “The housekeeper.”

Jiang Lin was startled, “Brother Zhou, why did you just spoil it?!”

“Didn’t you ask?” Qin Zhou smiled. cfrKsX

Jiang Lin was annoyed for a while, “I just asked casually……..”

Jiang Lin continued to wait for the second episode, but when he watched half of the second episode, he came to Qin Zhou’s side again and asked in a low voice: “Really? It’s the housekeeper? Why do I feel like it’s that chef?”

Qin Zhou was just about to speak when Jiang Lin hurriedly said, “Forget it, forget it. Don’t spoil it, I’ll see for myself!”

Jiang Lin watched the drama seriously, with Qin Zhou beside him. Qin Zhou took out his phone and checked Weibo. merT7N

Qin Zhou logged into the main account, and found out a lot of message reminders.

He didn’t have many fans, and he gained some popularity by riding the wave of Lin ChiXiao’s popularity last time, but that popularity had gradually declined later, and it didn’t make a splash.

Qin Zhou flipped through the comments, and they were basically fans confessing their love, or urging new dramas.

There were also a lot of messages in the private message list. Qin Zhou noticed an ID, so he clicked on it—— kh90PN

【I love ZhouZhou the most: ZhouZhou’s new drama is online today. Good luck, and congratulations~】

【I love ZhouZhou the most: ZhouZhou, I really like you very, very much!】

【I love ZhouZhou the most: Although I am a new fan, I only started to follow you after the Fallen MV, but I will continue to like you in the future. Go for it~】

Qin Zhou clicked on the fan’s homepage and found that the fan Weibo was all about his photos, and all kinds of fancy confessions. wlPuav

This fan should be a young star chasing little girl.

So Qin Zhou replied to the message.

【Qin Zhou: Thank you, and you too, good luck.】

Soon, the other party replied to the message in seconds. jbIOci

【I love ZhouZhou the most: Happy! ZhouZhou replied to me! 】

【I love ZhouZhou the most: I like ZhouZhou so much! ZhouZhou, come on! 】

***

By the time Jiang Lin finished watching the new episode, it was almost ten o’clock in the evening. GcY032

“Brother Zhou, remember to make wontons for me next time…..” Jiang Lin took the packaged fried meat and was still a little reluctant to go back.

“I’ll make it for you when I come back next time.” Qin Zhou smiled and sent Jiang Lin downstairs.

“Then, Brother Zhou, what’s the plan for tomorrow?” Jiang Lin asked.

“I’ll go to the hospital to accompany Grandma tomorrow, and return to the set the day after tomorrow.” Q5wDz6

Jiang Lin nodded, and hurriedly said: “Then Brother Zhou, you must call me when you come back next time.”

“Okay.” Qin Zhou agreed.

After Jiang Lin went back, Qin Zhou also went back to his room to rest.

The next morning, Qin Zhou went to the hospital to visit his grandma. PBywRQ

The sun had been out in the past few days, and Grandma’s mental state was relatively good. She always basked in the sun by the window and then listened to opera.

Qin Zhou accompanied his grandma, and went to the office to find the attending doctor.

It’s just that the attending doctor gave Qin Zhou bad news.

Doctor: “Although the operation was successful, your grandmother is old now and her health is not very good. She can last for a year or two at most.” 9US4FT

Qin Zhou lowered his head slightly, looking at the table, feeling a little distracted for a while.

One or two years…….

“It would be great if she could come to the hospital earlier. If she had been treated a few years earlier, the situation might have been better.” The doctor sighed, “It’s all late now, it’s too late.”

Qin Zhou nodded, “I’ll have to trouble you, doctor.” wQnoRF

When he took his grandma to the hospital for a physical examination, she was already in the late stage.

He’s already done his best.

Qin Zhou got up and went back to the ward.

Qin Zhou stood outside the ward, looking at the figure in the room. Fpdncs

The old woman smiled and was still chatting with the nurse beside her.

“ZhouZhou bought this for me.” The old woman’s tone was a little proud, “My grandson is so filial…….”

Qin Zhou looked at the figure in the ward; his eyes bent, and he laughed.

Grandma is really nice and kind.  hrKIg0

Even if there was only one or two years left, he still had to take good care of Grandma.

Qin Zhou stayed in the corridor.

Suddenly, Qin Zhou heard a familiar male voice——

“Hello.” 2RCo 5

That male voice was very gentle.

But when Qin Zhou heard that voice, he was instinctively disgusted.

Qin Zhou frowned slightly. He turned his head, and saw the sick and weak little young master was not far away, and walking towards him with a smile.

Qin Zhou was still wearing a hat. He glanced at the other party, and then looked away, ignoring him. flPRjO

The sick and weak little young master came over and asked with a smile: “Are you He Yang’s friend? I saw you the last two times.”

Qin Zhou ignored him, as if he didn’t hear what the other party said.

But the sick and weak little young master didn’t mind, he still smiled and said: “There is a party tonight. Do you want to come together with He Yang and get together?”

“Sorry, I don’t know President He very well.” Qin Zhou was a little cold. ma3USh

After speaking, Qin Zhou turned around and prepared to leave.

And just when Qin Zhou was about to leave, he heard coughing behind him.

As soon as Qin Zhou turned his head, he saw that the little young master was squatting on the ground, clutching his chest, and struggling to breathe.

At this moment, the young master’s nurse also hurried over, quickly took out the medicine from his pocket and fed it to the young master, and didn’t even care that the medicine bottle fell and rolled to the ground. wVxKY

Qin Zhou didn’t go over to touch the young master, but he still called a nurse to help.

That nurse was a middle-aged woman in her forties. After feeding the young master the medicine, she immediately said to Qin Zhou: “What did you do! Don’t you know that patients can’t be stimulated?!”

The nurse came a little late and just saw Qin Zhou and the little young master standing together and talking, and after Qin Zhou said something to the young master, the young master suddenly fell ill.

Qin Zhou frowned slightly after hearing this. R0CEWI

And the gentle and weak little young master also stood up. He held the nurse’s hand, with a smile on his face, and said softly: “Aunt Wang, it’s okay. I was not careful…….”

Qin Zhou stood not far away, and said: “There are surveillance cameras in the corridor. From the beginning to the end, I have never touched you.”

Qin Zhou stepped forward, came to the little young master step by step, and slowly squatted down.

“Shen XiuZhu, I know you.” Qin Zhou smiled and picked up the medicine bottle on the ground, “But I don’t know you well, so please don’t come to bother me again.” f9v Ki

He rarely hates others.

And, Shen XiuZhu is the first one.

He was the one who was stupid in the past, and didn’t see how eccentric this little young master was.

Maybe the little young master was allergic to seafood back then, and it was all he who directed and acted on his own. aVbh8B

“Put away your little thoughts. What are you pretending to me for?” Qin Zhou chuckled, “Didn’t you say that on purpose on the phone that day?”

Shen XiuZhu’s eyes suddenly turned red, and he was at a loss, “I didn’t…… Was it because of that call?”

“If you like He Yang, just go after him confidently. Don’t come over and try to bully me.” Qin Zhou put the medicine bottle in Shen XiuZhu’s hand, and said with a low voice and smiled: “You might as well guess, is he going to the party tonight, or will he be on my bed?”

With a smile still in his eyes, Qin Zhou turned and left. ckL6w9

Shen XiuZhu held the medicine bottle in his hand, lowered his head, and said nothing.

Seeing this, Aunt Wang at the side immediately had a bad impression of Qin Zhou, and muttered: “Who is that man? How did he speak? He has no manners at all……”

Aunt Wang supported Shen XiuZhu and slowly returned to the ward upstairs.

Shen XiuZhu sat by the hospital bed and was silent for a long time. He then took out his phone and dialed He Yang’s number. srCxJl

“He Yang, can you come to tonight’s party?”

  1. GOD the way I SCREAMED!! Shen XiuZhu is honestly so freaking pathetic, I hope he gets what’s coming to him.

  2. Ty for chapterrr~ (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ Shen Xiuzhu REALLY has it coming, Yanyan is so cool and ruthless huhuhu (メ ̄▽ ̄)

  3. “If you like He Yang, just go after him confidently. Don’t come over and try to bully me.”

    Such a great line, and cuts right to the heart of the matter. I love it.

  4. Honestly, he can have He Yang for all I care. Not like my baby Yanyan is lacking in the face department. Not only that, but he has a great personality and skills too! He can literally have anyone if he wanted to.
