Since Qi Le’an was with Wei Changfeng, the two of them had never argued for any reason.
But this time, Wei Changfeng started the cold war on his side.
Qi Le’an found it quite astonishing that his Wei Sama would start a cold war with him. As a result, Wei Changfeng refused to cook at home and he still went out every day even if he didn’t have work to do, which made Gary, who had been quite angry with him, happy for a long time.
Qi Le’an was anxious and wanted to find a chance to explain to Wei Changfeng. But having thought back and forth, he felt that he had confessed everything that day. He didn’t know why Wei Changfeng was angry.
Was it because he didn’t tell Wei Changfeng the full picture of the incident at first or because he hid the truth away when he was questioned for the first time?
He just didn’t want Wei Changfeng to worry about him too much…
The PR team Chen Shan hired was quite awesome. Li Zheyu was gravely bombarded online. He was usually obstinate and unruly, who was always protected by his fangirls. Now that the video was posted online, what he had done in the past was instantly exposed. His fangirls and anti-fans were having a violent fight online. As the PR team added fuel to the flame, Li Zheyu was about to be doomed.
Of course, Li Zheyu was infuriated. He knew that only Qi Le’an had the video. Li Zheyu probably wanted to perish with Qi Le’an together, so he just exposed the scandal about Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng.
Chen Shan found Qi Le’an in a hurry and shouted, “When did you take these photos?! How can you leak them out?”
Qi Le’an looked at the phone and only saw a blogger called “Hierarch of Entertainment Circle”. He had posted the scandal about Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng this Spring Festival, which even made Qi Le’an a trending topic back then.
He immediately recognized these photos posted by this blogger only with a glance. They were the stage photos taken by the paparazzi when he was shooting “Blue”.
At that time, the paparazzi made Director Guan very furious. But afterward, the photos were not exposed somehow.
The content posted by Hierarch of Entertainment Circle shifted the attention of the netizens away from Li Zheyu. As for the scandal about two actors… photos were not always solid proofs. They could at most provide materials for netizens to fantasize about what they wanted to know.
“Li Zheyu must be so anxious that he goes mad now, right?” Qi Le’an found it so unbelievable. Didn’t the PR team of Li Zheyu know that exposing the scandals like this was not good enough to defeat Qi Le’an?
Reminded by Qi Le’an, Chen Shan remembered that most of the photos exposed by that blogger were stage photos. A few of the intimate photos were required to be taken by the director of the crew. Instantly, he didn’t know whether to cry or to laugh.
“Then we shall not respond to it,” Chen Shan said, “but we can’t let Li Zheyu dominate this topic.”
As the two of them gathered together, Qi Le’an suddenly received a call.
“Le’an, how is everything going with you?”
It was Director Guan in Hong Kong who was on the phone. Qi Le’an found it strange and asked, “Good… What can I do for you, Director Guan?”
Guan Kai rolled his eyes and said, “Can’t I call you just for a casual talk? I’ve seen the posts. Good work. It is well written.”
Qi Le’an did not expect this to reach Guan Kai so soon. He was surprised and said, “It has just been posted lately. Did you register for a Weibo account in secret?”
Guan Kai snorted twice and said, “Do I need to register a Weibo account in secret? I did it aboveboard! I’m calling to tell you one thing. I stopped others from releasing any news about ‘Blue’ simply to keep the shooting from disturbance. Now that the shooting has been done, it is okay to have some news exposed. Since you are bullied, just fight back!”
When Qi Le’an heard this, he knew that Guan Kai allowed him to tell the truth about ‘Blue’.
After hanging up, Qi Le’an told Chen Shan, “Shall I post a response on Weibo?”
Chen Shan hastened to say, “It does not worth your direct response. How about this? Let me contact the publicity personnel of ‘Blue’ back then first.”
Qi Le’an was assured to leave the matter to Chen Shan and also told Chen Shan that he was going to New York University. Chen Shan studied in the United Kingdom at that time but he had also heard of the fame of NYU, so he said in delight, “You’ve got the reference letter? That’s wonderful! I didn’t expect that Wei Changfeng to be so useful at such a critical moment!”
Qi Le’an always believed that Wei Sama was very reliable and that the unreliable one was Chen Shan!
Chen Shan added, “Do you need an English tutor to learn English first? Since you are sure of going abroad for further study, you still have some formalities to handle at your high school.”
Qi Le’an also felt that it was better for him to learn English first, so he nodded and agreed, “Okay, please handle this for me, Brother Chen.”
Chen Shan replied with assurance, “Don’t worry. The teacher I will get for you is reliable for sure!”
The two of them happily discussed some other things, but when Chen Shan left, Qi Le’an felt a little disappointed.
He couldn’t just keep the cold war ongoing with Wei Changfeng, so he must figure out a way to save the situation. It was not a good sign that a couple kept giving each other cold treatment. On second thought, Wei Sama had gone to bed and fallen asleep directly several days in a row.
Thinking of that, Qi Le’an couldn’t help but feel a sense of crisis. He searched online about “how to cheer up your boyfriend”. Unexpectedly, one of the responses was to win his heart through his stomach or sex if the food failed!
Qi Le’an thought about it and immediately went out to the supermarket to buy a bunch of food. While lining up to pay the bill, he took two boxes of condoms hesitantly and put them into the bag.
That night, Wei Changfeng smelled the fragrance of rice the moment he entered the door.
Before Qi Le’an took off his apron, he rushed with a scoop out to give Wei Changfeng a big hug when Wei Changfeng came back. Then he rushed back to the kitchen quickly and shouted, “Wei Sama, wait a moment. Dinner will be ready soon!”
Seeing Qi Le’an behave so passionately, Wei Changfeng forcefully refrained from refusing to have dinner.
Qi Le’an, who saw that Wei Changfeng did not reject his treat, breathed a sigh of relief. He ran so fast simply not to give his Wei Sama any chance to refuse!
To please Wei Changfeng, Qi Le’an had spent the whole afternoon studying the recipe and cooking a lot of cuisines. When the dishes were served, he went to summon Wei Changfeng again with his puppy eyes.
Wei Changfeng walked to the dining table and saw that the color of chicken wings with coke was normal. The lines of the boiled shrimps were also specially removed and the ribs were delicately sprinkled with sesame. Only the dry-fried green beans were a bit overcooked.
Qi Le’an saw Wei Changfeng was gazing at the dry-fried green beans and then said with puppy dog eyes, “I’ve tried to make this several times and this is the best I can get. It looks not so good but I’ve tasted it. It tastes okay!”
Wei Changfeng sighed and sat down.
Qi Le’an was delighted and thought that Wei Sama was still soft-hearted, so he quickly turned around and got some rice for him.
Wei Changfeng was eating while Qi Le’an was barely eating with his focus on observing Wei Changfeng’s expression. Amused by his behavior, Wei Changfeng felt less angry.
He didn’t know anything about Li Zheyu at all. Neither did he think much about that day when Qi Le’an went out. He thought that the child had a little secret of his own. He never imagined that his boy had been bullied only within half a day.
Wei Changfeng was so furious when he saw Li Zheyu raising his hand.
He was angriest with Qi Le’an about not telling him about his trouble.
Wei Changfeng grew up in indulgence. Plus his good family education, he would yell when he got angry. He had no idea what to do facing Qi Le’an’s concealment. Coincidentally, the director of a department of Wllln with his team came to China these two days. Devin wanted to introduce Wei Changfeng to them so they did meet with each other. Therefore, he put aside Qi Le’an first.
“Wei Sama…” After dinner, Qi Le’an said softly. “I’m so sorry this time. Please don’t be mad at me anymore.”
Wei Changfeng didn’t say anything.
Qi Le’an lowered his head and said, “It is pointless to bother Wei Sama with these things, and I didn’t suffer any loss. I even spilled the braised dishes on Li Zheyu.”
Wei Changfeng couldn’t help but touch Qi Le’an’s head.
Qi Le’an looked up at Wei Changfeng.
Wei Changfeng said, “I was not… too angry.”
Qi Le’an pouted.
“I just don’t want to be shunned when you are bullied.”
Wei Changfeng’s eyes were as gentle as before, except that there was also a glint of pitiful affection.
Qi Le’an didn’t know why this simple thing became like this. Looking at Wei Changfeng, he felt a little grieved.
Finally, Wei Changfeng couldn’t bear to see Qi Le’an grieve, so he held the latter in his arms.
“Forget it. It’s no big deal. I’ve been wrong these days, but if anything happens to you next time, do tell me.”
Hearing Wei Changfeng’s words, Qi Le’an knew that he must not have browsed Weibo today, so he hurriedly said, “There’s something I need to tell you! Today, Li Zheyu asked someone to post the photos we took when we shot ‘Blue’!”
Wei Changfeng frowned when he heard this. It was Sheng Chang’an who handled this issue back then. Could there still be any photos left in others’ hands?
“However, the netizens’ attitude is fine. After all, Li Zheyu’s matter is worse. Guan Kai also called and said that he could slap them in the face. Oh right, this matter has been told to Brother Chen. Brother Chen said he would take care of it.”
Hearing Qi Le’an’s words, Wei Changfeng suddenly felt that without him, Qi Le’an could solve the problem very well.
Qi Le’an was still talking about hiring a tutor to teach him English. Wei Changfeng looked down and found that his lover was not an innocent child anymore.
He always thought that Qi Le’an was still a child who needed his care in many aspects. However, at this moment, Wei Changfeng suddenly realized that the child in front of him was a man who had been fighting alone for several years.
After thinking through all of this, Wei Changfeng suddenly smiled.
Qi Le’an saw that Wei Sama was smiling and immediately stopped talking. Then he called Wei Changfeng, “Wei Sama?”
Wei Changfeng shook his head and said, “Nothing. I suddenly have a feeling that Le’an is also a man of indomitable spirit.”
Qi Le’an was stunned and laughed, “Whether I have the indomitable spirit… Don’t you know it?”
As he said this, he leaned over to Wei Changfeng and blew into Wei Changfeng’s ear, “Wei Sama, when I went to the supermarket today, I picked several flavors of con…”
“And I had to avoid being recognized by others. It was so exciting.”
Wei Changfeng wouldn’t be a man if he suppressed his desire anymore. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Where’s the thing?”
Qi Le’an replied with a smile, “Upstairs.”
Wei Changfeng carried Qi Le’an in his arms and walked upstairs. Qi Le’an was so confused why Wei Changfeng could always carry a man like him in the arms so easily!
