Ch 58 - Newest Top Celebrity x Washed Up Film Emperor: A Qualified Plaything

Everyone was curious about the person in Yan Qin’s heart whom he couldn’t talk about, some people thought it might be that his partner was from outside the industry and he didn’t want to expose them and so chose such a subtle way, but more people had an answer automatically appear in their hearts.

@It’s Suisui Ya: It’s the wife!!! Aah it’s the wife!!! It’s uncle!!! Hu Bao is the witness!!

@LeYueLeYueLe: The melon-eating crowd also thinks its Lin Sui. Let me first say that I’m not a fan of either of the parties or a CP fan, but based on the many romance melons I’ve eaten I think it’s more obvious that he didn’t say anything. Ever since Yan Qin entered the industry many years ago until now he’s never allowed the spread of any scandals with anyone, everyone understands.

@Yan Flies Into Lin: Now I want to rush in front of Yan-ge and grab him by the collar and ask him if that person is Suisui, wuwuwu if it is and they still haven’t gotten back together I’m gonna be really upset.

@SuiAn: There haven’t been any news from the wife’s side yet, so don’t twist the knife, thanks. As everyone knows, people will die if they’re stabbed, and twisting the knife will kill you even faster!

There were differing opinions about this in the circle, Lin Sui received plenty of gossipy glances while filming the programme, but he didn’t make any response.

He of course knew who Yan Qin was talking about, and that there was no other person, because he’d been keeping an eye on Yan Qin.

But what he didn’t understand was that he had clearly hurt Yan Qin over and over again, it was normal for Yan Qin to get over those difficulties, but why would he still confess to him?

Lin Sui tried to put himself in his shoes. If he were Yan Qin and someone did that to him, he would simply be unable to tolerate it, he was a selfish person who loved himself more than he loved others.

Lin Sui had long since prepared himself to receive resentment and even retaliation, he wouldn’t feel indignant or aggrieved because no one could expect Yan Qin, who didn’t know the truth, to be forgiving of the things he’d done.

But why was the situation now different from what he’d imagined?

Sometimes he wanted to pry Yan Qin’s skull open to see what was inside.

Lin Sui was not the only one who thought like this, Liu Buqun was also perplexed.

“Did he put a gu in you? Is it worth you begin so devoted? You didn’t seem so love-struck before, why are you chasing such a crafty one?”

He didn’t understand, he just really didn’t understand.

Let alone Liu Buqun not getting it, no one around Yan Qin understood why.

“You disappeared without saying a word at first and I was very worried, fortunately you got back in contact with us after filming, I never expected you to do such a big thing so quietly. Not only do I have to say you acted especially well, you’ve already overcome your previous self. But why haven’t you let go of him yet if you’ve made such a breakthrough?”

“Don’t blame me for trying to dissuade you, he can go as far as to blacklist you, you can’t just insist on doing things the bad way.”

Yan Qin’s expression didn’t change upon hearing these words, he raised his cup and clinked it against Liu Buqun’s, calmly saying: “Not all feelings in the world have to be clearly and enthusiastically expressed.”

“You’re a director and a screenwriter, you’ve filmed so many movies and seen too many relationship models and changes, you should know it’s not the person who speaks loudest, but the one with the deepest love.”

Liu Buqun grimaced: “Have you reached the point of consoling yourself with conjectures?”

Yan Qin shook his head, unflinching: “Actually, there’s many things I don’t understand, but even if I’m unable to understand them, I can spend all my time with him, and I can tell the difference between love and false affections.”

Although Lin Sui seemed contemptuous of everyone on the surface, Yan Qin didn’t really feel that he disdained or looked down on him.

That was simply a type of superficial, transient feeling. Yan Qin had seen that kind of genuine contempt that came from the inside out, moreover, he was a person who was relatively sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of people, so he could clearly tell the difference.

Lin Sui was controlling and protective of him, but the latter sentiment was in another place, under layers of concealment.

Naturally people can’t see into another’s innermost being through their skin, not to mention the layer of pretence above Lin Sui’s skin, he was truly concealed under layer upon layer of fog, making it hard for someone to touch him.

But Yan Qin thought that he had touched him. When he was extremely delirious and found it hard to pretend from having lost his reason, Lin Sui’s dependence on him was particularly real.

The entanglement between them wasn’t simply love and hate, to choose and to abandon, Yan Qin couldn’t clearly describe it, but he was captivated by Lin Sui.

Liu Buqun saw Yan Qin’s seriously earnest look as he talked about this, so he didn’t continue saying anything.

Others were always unclear regarding emotional matters.

Yan Qin didn’t continue explaining either, he didn’t need to prove to others that he liked Lin Sui, nor did he need to prove that Lin Sui liked him, it was enough that he knew it in his heart.

When “To Know The Sun” came out, it announced Yan Qin’s return.

Clips of his past acting were circulated online again, and he had a constant flow of resources and invitations.

The world of money was the real world, benefits could make people let go of all their prejudices, it could make them selectively forget the things they’d done, it could turn relatives against each other, and it could make enemies shake hands and talk.

Yan Qin didn’t resist this at all, he’d long since made up his mind on what he had to do.

Apart from taking all sorts of jobs and being active in the industry, Yan Qin was supporting his own power at the same time, and quickly his power and prestige was like no other.

Everyone waited to see how he and Lin Sui would clash, they wanted to see how the returned king would take his revenge, but what they saw in the end left their mouths open in shock.

A certain marketing account received the explosive allegations that Yan Qin sniped the female lead of Lin Sui’s new movie.

These news left everyone baffled, was Lin Sui going to cross-dress as the female lead?

Afterwards, everyone discovered that Lin Sui was actually the male lead.

Oh-ho, this type of thinking is abundantly clear.

After getting the news, Lin Sui simply didn’t act, Yan Qin gave up too, so the movies silently switched actors.

Not to be outdone, Lin Sui stepped in and snatched Yan Qin’s originally scheduled advertisement resources.

The two people fought back and forth, but neither was taking part in a new film.

As a result of all sorts of scandalous news, everyone had a new guess.

Could it be that Yan Qin was taking an alternate way?

Indeed, as far as the current influence of the two people was concerned, it could be said that they were evenly matched. They had no way to block the other out, nor did they have a way to completely snatch the other’s resources, so now Yan Qin was taking this kind of roundabout way?

Everyone watched with great enthusiasm at first, after all, neither of them was giving way, but they were tired of watching afterwards, since it basically didn’t seem like the two people were at each other’s throats, it seemed like they were flirting.

Some people even selfishly wanted them to provoke each other for a while longer, that way there would be more resources available to them.

A very special visitor arrived at Lin Sui’s studio.

Fu Nai’s eyelids twitched slightly when she saw him walking into her boss’ office.

Her boss’ next appointment was in three hours, would he still be able to go as scheduled?

Lin Sui was wearing a white shirt and leaning back against his executive chair, a slightly tired look on his brow.

He had just finished a very long commercial shoot, and the gold-rimmed glasses used during the shoot were still on his face.

He drank a sip of water, his Adam’s apple bobbed and his lips, stained wet, became a darker shade of red.

He looked at the approaching man and slightly raised his eyes.

“Congratulations, your comeback was successful, you got what you wanted.”

Even though he was looking up at the man standing in front of him, Lin Sui’s loftiness wasn’t weakened in the slightest, he was still the same as before.

“Thank you for your words, I still stood up this time.”

On that snowy day, Lin Sui held an umbrella as he looked at his miserable appearance and left behind that question, Yan Qin was confirming the answer today.

Yan Qin spoke with a light laugh: “I heard your company is interested in accessing an IP Copyright, but don’t know what the base price is.”

Lin Sui narrowed his eyes: “Are you showing off?”

“Of course not, I’m just answering another thing.”

Yan Qin placed his hand on the table and leaned closer to Lin Sui.

“I’ve been thinking about what standard I had to reach to become a qualified plaything, but I finally figured it out not long ago.”

Yan Qin was very tall, and Lin Sui was enveloped by his shadow as they stared into each other’s eyes.

“The most qualified plaything is the one that won’t be thrown away by its owner.”

Lin Sui’s hand was held, and his fingertips became numb and hot from being kissed, making him unconsciously want to take his hand back.

Yan Qin’s eyes had a dark light, both ambitious and gentle.

“Now I think that I should be qualified.”

Lin Sui couldn’t easily throw him away again.

“You just think—”

His words were interrupted by the fingers messing around between his lips and tongue, and Yan Qin spoke very apologetically: “I didn’t explain myself well, I should be asking for your gracious permission.”

Yan Qin knew Lin Sui’s character, he would never bow his head or accept coercion.

Even if he was thrown away again and again, he would gladly devote himself to him once more and become his dog.

“Can I light a cigarette for you?”

“I know you don’t like smoking, so just one puff is enough,” Yan Qin intimately rubbed his face against Lin Sui’s cheek and took out a cigarette, “While on set, the cigarettes the protagonist smoked were very bad quality, he could only afford that kind of tobacco, and it was very pungent, so I could never get used to it.”

“Whenever that happened, I would remember that honey peach-flavoured cigarette. That was probably the best cigarette I’ve ever smoked, because it tasted of you.”

Yan Qin was like a big dog grumbling about past grievances to his master, the master had clearly not yet given his assent but he had already intruded in the master’s territory and declared himself his dog, and was even staring to beg for treats.

Lin Sui’s lips turned redder and redder as those wet fingers stroked them, and he laughed coldly: “Worthless bastard.”

That’s right, it was always in his heart when he was hurt and abandoned, and now that he had what it took to come back, all he dared ask for was a used cigarette.

But even so, he still bit the filter of the cigarette.

Yan Qin’s smile became brighter and brighter, it was clear he was enjoying this.

Lin Sui discovered it was a flavoured cigarette after it was lit, so he bit down on the flavour bead and took a deep breath, laughing at him as he tasted the flavour: “Haven’t you weaned yet?”

It was a milk-flavoured cigarette, and the sweet scent of milk spread throughout the air.

“I thought you liked drinking milk.”

Yan Qin took the cigarette from Lin Sui’s hand, lightly licking at the filter with the top of his tongue and blowing out a mouthful of smoke.

“After all, every time I give you milk, you can always drink it all.”

Lin Sui’s reaction was a little bit delayed, his face turning slightly cold with annoyance.

Shameless dog, it always turned into force-feeding in the end.

It seemed like he became more skilled from wandering for so long, he had more guts than before.

That requested-for cigarette was put out in the ashtray before it was finished.

The sweet fragrance of milk still drifted inside the office, the fake glasses on Lin Sui’s face sat crookedly on his nose, and he spat out milk with a cold face.
