Editor: Jodi
Seeing Meng Chao’s post, Lin Qin’s first thought was that something must have happened earlier, otherwise Meng Chao wouldn’t tag Huang Wenkai so bluntly and directly.
‘To be a human being before doing anything’, this was the most mild and roundabout way of cursing someone, which meant Meng Chao must have been very angry to curse openly like this.
Lin Qin immediately called Chu Hong to ask what exactly had happened on Weibo.
He knew Meng Chao; if it were something concerning Meng Chao himself, he wouldn’t be this angry. Therefore, it must have been something about him that had triggered such fury in Meng Chao.
What’s more him posting at this time meant he wasn’t afraid of him seeing it, which meant it was likely that he’d already had someone delete the main cause. Hence it would be much quicker if he asked Chu Hong directly than if he searched for it himself.
Chu Hong answered the phone quickly, and when Lin Qin asked about what had happened on Weibo, she stammered, trying to brush it off vaguely.
However Lin Qin wasn’t one to be fooled easily. Since he wanted to understand something, then he would persist until he got to the bottom of it.
Lin Qin said, “I don’t believe there’s no trace of it at all online. It’s okay if you don’t tell me; I’ll find out myself.”
Chu Hong knew this too, and so after a moment of hesitation, she sighed and said, “Alright, I’ll tell you.”
“This morning, Huang Wenkai’s team released some leaked footage from ‘Dark War’, revealing the filming details. Then they hired water armies to stir up your relationship with Huang Wenkai, directly ordering their fans to attack you. The things they said were really awful and we didn’t want you to see them. Later, the director counterattacked by announcing ‘Dark War’ officially, tagging all the cast except Huang Wenkai, which was a direct slap in the face to him, causing a stir online, and probably because Huang Wenkai’s team couldn’t handle the backlash, they deliberately released a scandal, claiming Huang Wenkai was in a relationship with Big Brother Meng. That’s what happened.” Chu Hong explained briefly, without a word wrong, every word backed with evidence, pointing out that this was Huang Wenkai’s self-promotional tactic.
However no matter how Huang Wenkai tried to hype himself up, it originally had nothing to do with them, hence it was inexcusable for him to have dragged Lin Qin and Meng Ke into it.
One was Meng Chao’s lover, and the other his kin.
Even if Meng Chao had a good temperament he would still explode, not to mention Meng Chao didn’t have a good temper to begin with.
After listening, Lin Qin remained silent for a long time.
He knew that Meng Chao and Chu Hong were trying to protect him, as he had once suffered violence, hence they tried to give him a clean environment as much as possible, shielding him from the abusive language before he could get to know about it.
This protection touched Lin Qin, but it wasn’t what he wanted.
In his view, just because he had suffered violence once didn’t mean he should treat himself like a delicate flower in a greenhouse. He was also an adult and also wanted to be capable of standing on his own.
After deliberating seriously for a while, he said to Chu Hong, “In the future, you can tell me about these things directly; there’s no need to hide them.” He paused, his tone becoming serious and determined, “I can handle it myself. Trust me, I really have moved on.”
Chu Hong: “Lin Qin, you…”
She seemed as if she had a lot of words to say, but it was as if there was a bone stuck in her throat as even though she opened her mouth, she couldn’t find the words.
Lin Qin smiled into the phone, “Cousin, don’t worry. I can really do it. I have a heart strong as a diamond now. No casual harm can touch me. Besides…” Lin Qin’s eyes and voice carried a warm and gentle lingering smile, “Besides, don’t I have you guys?”
Once, I was isolated, that’s why I was afraid of the darkness that came to face me. But now it’s different. I have so many people who love me by my side and the strongest backing, so why should I be afraid of the world’s slander?
On the other end of the phone, Chu Hong was silent for a long time, and then her choked voice sounded, “I understand. I’ll try to let go in the future.”
She was touched, relieved, and reluctant to let go, a mixture of emotions in her heart as tears kept pouring from her eyes like broken strings.
She had accompanied Lin Qin for many years and had seen his most desperate moments, nights without sleep, hiding in the audio-visual room, watching Meng Chao’s works over and over again, ignoring anyone who spoke to him, not eating or drinking, going crazy and screaming as long as anyone came close to him, his nerves always taut, seemingly ready to snap at anytime, in a very dangerous state.
She knew that Lin Qin himself didn’t want to fall into that state again, which was why he struggled against nightmare-like emotions and despair all the time.
Everything was finally moving in a positive direction now, however she had become accustomed to protecting Lin Qin, wanting to shield him in every way, but she had forgotten that Lin Qin had always been a strong person.
Yes, Lin Qin had always been strong.
Strong in fighting illness, strong in walking out of the darkness.
She couldn’t help but laugh, her whole body relaxing at once.
It wasn’t just Lin Qin who had been on edge all these years; everyone around him who loved him had been tensely holding onto this nerve as well.
But now, it was indeed time to relax.
She laughed as she cried, “Lin Qin Qin, I’m letting go now, you have to keep going strong.”
The corners of Lin Qin’s lips rose in a smile as he responded, “Okay, I will keep going strong.”
After saying this, they ended the call.
And when Lin Qin turned around, he saw Meng Chao leaning against the door, looking at him with a gentle gaze as he smiled.
It seems he had heard his conversation with Chu Hong, but not feeling embarrassed, he walked over to him and wrapped his arms around his waist, looking up at him, “When did you come in?”
Hugging him, Meng Chao walked towards the bed.
And as they moved, he began to undress the two of them, not answering Lin Qin’s question.
He pressed Lin Qin onto the bed then looked at him attentively and deeply with love before he kissed him, “I will never let go, never.”
Even if Lin Qin could withstand all the storms, he still didn’t want to let go. He still wanted to keep Lin Qin in his greenhouse, shield him from all external attacks and also make it so that Lin Qin wouldn’t be able to leave him.
Closing his eyes, Lin Qin raised his head to kiss him.
And after the kiss, he whispered in his ear, “Okay, then don’t let go.”
Soon, the two of them became intertwined on the bed as they loved each other with reckless abandon.
And while the two of them were enjoying themselves in their room, the internet was boiling over because of Meng Chao’s post.
Meng Chao was well known in the circle, and everyone who had worked with him only had praises for him.
Over the years, when had Meng Chao ever confronted someone so openly like this?
Even during the Jin Feiyun incident, he had only posted that he didn’t want to have any cooperation with Jin Feiyun, so him calling someone out directly like this, Huang Wenkai was the first.
