Chapter 24: A Day of Confusion

  Lin Yu really didn't know how he ended up leaving Chen Yun's house. He hadn't driven, nor had he said goodbye to anyone, and he walked alone onto the road from the suburbs to Hanchang.

  His mind was in a mess.

  This was really too surprising for him. Even if the US dropped 10 to 18 atomic bombs on any other country now, it would not shock him so much.

  For some reason, when Chen Yun said those words, he clearly heard a loud bang. Then his heart felt like it had shattered into pieces, aching terribly.

  For some reason, no matter what Chen Yun did to herself, Lin Yu couldn't bring himself to hate her. In a fit of anger, he joined the army, but still carried her photo with him at all times. Lin Yu knew that he was just too impulsive, but it wasn't that he hated her.

  That's anger, that's unwillingness, but it's not hatred.

  Six years have passed, and everything has changed. Lin Yu is no longer the little rascal he used to be, and Chen Yun is no longer the pure and innocent princess of Han Nan Middle School. However, Lin Yu's feelings for her haven't changed in the slightest. In fact, they've deepened even more.

  If it weren't for Yao Jing's appearance, Lin wouldn't know if he would have ended up back with Chen Yun either.

  To be honest, in his heart, he was indeed a little frightened by all this, and had even more expectations.

  But tonight, everything is over. Because Chen Yun told herself clearly that she is no longer her own. No, not only is she not her own, but she has also become someone else's mistress.

  Lin slammed his fist heavily on the concrete electricity pole by the roadside.

  "My god, you're screwing with me!!!!" Lin Yu let out a long, mournful howl, his eyes fixed on the sky above, filled with a sense of injustice. He just stood there quietly, gazing at the horizon. On his right hand, a thin trickle of blood flowed down from his wrist, spreading all the way to the ground.

  When Lin Yu arrived home, Yao Jing was not asleep. She sat at her desk, quietly doing her homework. Lin Yu opened the door and quietly looked at her small back.

  This is a pitiful girl. Lin Yu sighed in his heart. She had a great father. Not to mention anything else, just the spirit of facing death without revealing national secrets was worthy of admiration from all people. Unfortunately, her childhood was also destroyed because of this.

  Lin Yu can think of that kind of helplessness, because he is also an orphan, and he has also experienced the situation where he watched his most important relatives die without being able to do anything.

  Lin understood Yao Jing's fragile heart better than anyone else.

  He knew that Yao Jing had given her life to him. He thought of that night, the absurd yet passionate fusion; he thought of Yao Jing's skin as cold as ice, and how she was in his arms that evening, unable to control his emotions, revealing his true feelings. Thinking of this short but heart-wrenching emotion, Lin Yu's heart was filled with an unknown flavor.

  Perhaps it's guilt. Lin Yu knew that he still had some illusions about Chen Yun. For Yao Jing, he was more pitiful, but for Chen Yun, he truly loved her.

  That deep feeling which has been lasting since high school era, how could it be compared with such a short encounter?

  Unfortunately, it's all meaningless now.

  Yao Jing felt Lin Yu's movements and sensed his abnormality. Her childhood experiences had given Yao Jing a heart more sensitive than anyone else's.

  As usual, Lin would wrap his arms around Yao from behind as soon as they got home, watching her finish her homework while occasionally teasing her. Of course, he would also gently blow hot air on the back of Yao's ear, making himself blush and skip a beat.

  But today, he didn't, he just stood at the door of the room and never came in.

  Yao Jing didn't turn around and continued writing the assignment in front of her, saying lightly: "Are you back? There's food on the table, heat it up yourself and eat."

  "En." Lin Yu responded with a single word and turned into the living room.

  Yao Jing turned around and looked at Lin Yu's back, a hint of unusual color flashing in her eyes.

  Tonight, the two people lying on the same bed couldn't fall asleep. The sensitive Yao Jing seemed to have sensed something and kept burrowing into Lin Yu's arms.

  Lin Yu held her icy body tightly, kissing away the tears from her eyes again and again, staring at the dark window curtains until dawn.

  In the morning, Yao Jing got up quietly, made breakfast as usual, and then smiled lightly and said goodbye before walking out of the door with ease.

  Yao Jing didn't ask Lin Yu anything else, and Lin Yu didn't give her any explanation. She also had no reason to ask questions. In her heart, she always believed that Lin Yu would not leave her, and in Lin Yu's heart, there was only one person - her.

  Although she herself does not know whether this blind trust is right or wrong...

  "Mr. Han, I think this contract is no longer necessary to fulfill." Lin said calmly, looking at Han Feng in front of him, his tone as light as the air in Tibet. "I've already taken care of things for you."

  "Oh? What's going on?" Han Feng looked at the young man in front of him with some surprise. From the moment he met Lin Yu, Han Feng knew that this was absolutely not an ordinary person.

  In the entertainment circle, Han Feng was best at observing people's words and expressions. Lin Yu's every move revealed his sharpness, calmness, and even some unintentionally released killing intent, all of which fell into Han Feng's eyes.

  Han Feng naturally understood what it meant for him to bring such a patron god to the company.

  And this young man seems to always like to shock himself. He signed a contract for just one day and then wanted to cancel it with himself.

  Although this proved K-pop's keen eye for talent, however...

  Han Feng smiled wryly, isn't this a bit too much for me?

  "You may not know some things. Han Chang's big brother is my brother, a good brother. His family background is not something your company can compare to. This protection fee, from the amount, is completely negligible, purely for the sake of face." Lin knocked on Han Feng's office desk nonchalantly, his eyes looking somewhere unknown. "However, since I've taken action to guarantee it, you can rest assured that Han Chang will absolutely not come to cause any more trouble in the future."

  "I understand this point. However, it's not necessary to cancel the contract either. In fact, we can even offer a more favorable contract for you to serve as our company's..."

  "It's unnecessary...". Lin Yu and Xiang both didn't think, interrupting Han Feng's kind advice. "I've lost interest in this deal."

  "Alright, I understand." Han Feng was also a straightforward person. One look at Lin Yu and he knew something must have happened. Continuing to persuade him would be pointless now. "We still know some rules of the trade. The payment that's due will be transferred to your company's account without a cent missing."

  "Alright, bring out the contract then." Lin Yu directly tore the two copies of the contract into pieces. He wasn't afraid that Han Feng wouldn't pay up, with Lao San keeping an eye on things. Han Feng was also a shrewd person, he knew how much trouble not paying would bring to the company and himself.

  Han Feng still wanted to try to persuade Lin Yu to stay when sending him off at the door, because such a powerful backer was hard to come by and he really didn't want to give up on this opportunity so easily.

  "Mr. Lin, why don't you reconsider?" Han Feng said as he helped Lin Lin open the door, "No matter how high the price is, our company can still afford it."

  "This has nothing to do with the price." Lin Yu's eyes suddenly turned cold, his gaze swept across Han Feng like a knife, scaring him so much that he almost trembled. From that gaze, Han Feng felt a killing aura. That was the true killing aura that only someone who had crawled out of a pile of dead bodies could possess.

  "Also, tell your boss that not everyone in this world is someone he can move. Lin Yu looked at the pitiful Han Feng, turned around and left the room door, leaving only his voice still echoing inside."

  "Tell your boss I'll catch up with him sooner or later, let him take care of himself."

  I'm really sorry to everyone. I went out today and originally asked a friend to help me update it. As a result, his computer got a virus, that guy doesn't know what he ate wrong, even my article was deleted together. Depressed, I'm really sorry, first update this chapter.
