C185 Courting Death
After December, the weather began to turn cold. After a month, the rumors of an affair between Qin Lang and Jiang Peiru were cleared up by both of them. After the company made a statement, the heat was completely gone, just like the weather now. As for the matter of Qin Lang having an unmarried child, it was no longer as hotly discussed as it was in the early stages of the incident. However, the damage inflicted on Qin Lang was still irreparable.
However, the situation was not as bad as the rumors on the internet said. After all, he had opened a proper online shop on a certain treasure.
In fact, at first, he just wanted to get rid of the pile of things and give it away. The people he knew could use it, and it would be a waste to throw it away. It was too little to donate it. They wouldn't take it back to the advertisers, and to prove his goods were good, he had only to get in touch with them once and they would send it back, so he decided to get rid of it.
But now the buyers were good, too, and he took pictures of the house with his cell phone to make things easier to sell. There was a small mirror on one of the little toys, and he was photographed in it by accident.
Because of the rumors of his unmarried child, Qin Lang had not appeared in front of the media for almost a month. Many fans who still supported him left messages on Weibo, but he did not respond. After knowing the existence of his online shop, they all went to the online shop to tease him, the seller. Fans would occasionally buy small things, but when they saw that he had very few things, they were unwilling to buy them. They were afraid that he would run away after selling all his things and lose his fun.
At first, Qin Lang did not know how to answer the system's questions. However, after a while, he decided to set the chat as an automated reply. No matter what the other party asked, the system would only answer with a single sentence: "If you don't understand, look at the product introduction yourself. Thank you for the offer."
When someone bought something, he would ask his assistant to pack it up and mail it.
The online store had been open for a week or two. He suddenly felt that if he stopped being an actor, this might become his way of earning money.
The fact that Yu was his son had caused Qin Lang a lot of loss. Since he had already admitted it, he had no intention of clarifying it. The company had made a statement, and all the major media outlets had shut up. Although the netizens were still discussing it, the impact was not as great as before. He knew that this was a serious matter, but he did not take the initiative to look for Yan Ming. He knew that this matter was targeted at him. In order to take back Yu, he was prepared. If he took the initiative to look for Yan Ming, he would only be asking for trouble. He would be in a very passive position.
Right now, he was taking good care of his child at home. Yan Ming had no opportunities to take advantage of him. Soon, he would be unable to sit still. At that time, the situation would be different.
Early in the morning, Qiao Lin walked out of the school with his collar up after sending Yu to the kindergarten classroom and got into a car parked by the side of the road.
"It's so cold," As soon as he spoke, steam came out from his mouth.
Qin Lang watched him go out for a few minutes before his nose turned red from the cold. He used his warm hands to cover his cold face. Finally, he took his hands and blew hot air into his palms, warming him up quickly. "Thank you for your hard work."
"What's so hard about it? It's just cold." Qiao Lin did not feel that it was difficult to drive Yu around with Qin Lang. It was just that winter in B City was always strangely cold. It was fine to have a heater at home, but when he went out, it was useless no matter how much he wore.
The car was much warmer with the heater on. Qiao Lin pulled his hand away from Qin Lang's palm and said, "Hurry up and drive. It won't be cold when you get home. I still want to go back and sleep."
In the winter, Qiao Lin would feel sleepy easily. He wished that he could just bury himself in the blanket and not get up.
"Today is Saturday, Qin Shu is going to compete in the top ten. Tonight, he will choose the top ten contestants, but I still can't go to the competition. Although my career is at an all-time low and I don't have a job, I'm afraid that if I go, it will cause a commotion. Even if that kid has the strength now, I don't want to distract him because of me. A while ago, because of me, he kept coming home and didn't train properly. So I can't keep him from the game any longer. You go tonight, and I'll take you. " It was a crucial match before his younger brother entered the finals, but he could not attend it. Qin Lang felt a little regretful.
"Alright, you stay at home and accompany Yu. I'll go." In this one month plus, including tonight, there were a total of five matches. Qiao Lin had gone to two of them. He did not go to the two weeks when Qin Lang's matter was exposed. After watching two matches, he had gotten used to the lively atmosphere. Since Qin Lang could not attend, he wanted to cheer for Qin Shu in this crucial match.
"Then it's settled. Let's go buy some groceries first. Aunt Liu is still at home waiting to cook for us." After Qin Lang helped Qiao Lin cover his cold face again, he started the car and drove to the supermarket not far away from home.
For the past month, Qiao Lin had been living a leisurely life as he had yet to complete his first work and was not famous at all. Advertisements were not easy to accept, so during this period of time, he acted as a guest performer on a variety show that was produced by the company. He showed his face for a few minutes and acted in a short prank show. Since that show would not be broadcast until New Year's Day, he would not show his face on television and be troubled by being treated as a star.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Qin Lang dropped Qiao Lin off at the scene half an hour earlier and drove away.
When Qiao Lin arrived at the studio, Chen Zhe and the others were already ready. The staff in the studio were also making final checks on the filming equipment. At this time, Qin Shu and the others were also making preparations backstage.
"Cousin, you're finally here. Hurry up and get ready." Chen Zhe stuffed the remaining headbands, ribbons, glowsticks, and lampposts into Qiao Lin's arms.
Although Qiao Lin had already said a few times that he could let the other party call him by his name or call him Qiao, Chen Zhe insisted on continuing to call him cousin.
A few minutes later, Qiao Lin tied his headband and ribbon around his body and sat in the first row of the audience with the "I love Qin Shu for ten thousand years" sign in his arms.
After a month of competition, the remaining contestants had more or less accumulated some fame. There were no longer any audience that the production team had paid for. Apart from their relatives and friends, many of them were true fans who were willing to abide by the rules on the spot. Furthermore, this was a crucial match for the top 12, so the venue might be even higher than before. Qiao Lin began to worry about his ears.
The numbers of the previous contestants in the top ten had not changed, but tonight, the order of the contestants had been disrupted. The LP was the second to go on stage. The first contestant sang and danced to liven up the atmosphere of the scene. When the LP went on stage, Faang Su sat in front of the grand piano. When his hands touched the black and white keys, a low and slow sound immediately rang out. The audience was so quiet that even the remaining sounds disappeared. The lights gradually dimmed. At first, everyone thought that it was another slow-paced love song. However, after the prelude, the sound of the piano immediately became cheerful and clear, and the lights lit up again.
Qin Shu's clear and clean voice sounded along with the sound of the zither. He had sung several soothing love songs in the previous competitions. He sang a slightly more cheerful song with a slightly different tone.
Qin Shu, who was on stage, had a smile on his face. Instead of his usual dull expression, he tried his best to show the vitality of his age and kept blowing kisses in the direction of the audience, especially in the direction of his fan group.
Qiao Lin always felt that this kid was courting death.
