Chapter 44.2 - Face Value is Justice
Chapter 44.2 - Face Value is Justice
Translator: Yuzu Ko-fi Chapter. Thank you!
A comeback! Comeback your sister! Back then, you suddenly wanted to stop, but now you suddenly want to make a comeback. Do you think the entertainment industry is your home, and you can come and go as you please?
Ning Qianyuan casually decided to make a comeback, but the agent, Li Qing, was so anxious that he jumped to his feet in his office and just wanted to yell at the phone again but found that the person opposite had already hung up.
Li Qing gripped his head and wailed, Damn it! How did I end up with this ancestor!
But his professionalism was still there, and he immediately arranged avenues for publicity. Thankfully, the work that Ning Qianyuan was going to make a comeback was in the same line as his breakout work, so it wouldnt be too awkward.
Once the news was released that Ning Qianyuan would make a comeback for Druid 2, it caused a massive wave of excitement.
His fans were already extremely active these days because of one like from Ning Qianyuan. Now, when they saw this news on Weibo, they were so happy they were going to faint!
Its true this time, isnt it? Is it true?
Oww! Is it official news from Sheng Shi that His Majesty has finally gotten tired of being the president and is coming back as a movie star?
In the past few years, some fake news has come out, saying that Ning Qianyuan will participate in a certain movie, but eventually, it came out that it was just using Ning Qianyuans fame for hype. So when this news was released, his fans couldnt believe it for a while.
His various fan groups became active in an instant, and the group leader yelled: Sisters, cheer up and get ready to go to war. The ones who havent moved for a long time will be kicked out. Wheres the management? Everyone pay attention, the emperor is coming back. Well still have the same rules as before, so watch your mouths!
It was only then that the people in the entertainment industry really felt how popular Ning Qianyuan was. He hadnt had a single work in five years, but his fans were still as strong as they were a few years ago.
"
"
Almost instantly, the hashtags #Holy Comeback and #Druid 2 topped the list.
Everyone in the entertainment industry also retweeted the news, congratulating Ning Qianyuan on his comeback.
The stars under Sheng Shis name forwarded this news in seconds, except for Qing Yun, because hes really in trouble now.
Five luxury cars surrounded Qing Yuns poor nanny car. He Lan sat in the drivers seat with a blue face but still comforted Qing Yun. Dont worry, I called the company over, and these five people would not dare to do anything serious.
Although she said this, He Lans heart was still tense. Ning Qianyuan, who can have the face to block these five people, was still abroad. And He Lan knew that there were not only these five cars around, but there were also paparazzi.
As long as Qing Yun gets off today, Im afraid that he cant wash it clean even if he jumps into the Yellow River. 1
As soon as He Lan thought about this, she turned around and found that Qing Yun opened the door and got out of the car. Suddenly, her heart stopped beating.
As soon as they saw Qing Yun get off the car, the windows of the five luxury cars lowered. One of them peeked over and hooked his hand towards Qing Yun, Come, get in the car. Well take you out for some fun.
Dont worry. Qing Yun waved at He Lan and walked straight to one of the cars, opening the door and sitting in.
After Qing Yun went in, the five cars left, with lights flashing all around. He Lan slumped against the car seat: Its over.
Because the news of the comeback was released, Ning Qianyuan returned home early. He saw the hundreds of messages He Lan sent him as soon as he got off the plane and was suddenly confused.
He Lan was Qing Yuns agent. What was she doing calling him this time?
Ning Qianyuan had a bit of a bad feeling in his heart, and he immediately called He Lans phone.
As soon as the call was connected, He Lans crying voice came over, Mr. Ning, Qing Yun was taken away by those five men. I really had no choice but to come to you
As soon as he heard the news, Ning Qianyuan only heard a buzz in his brain.
He immediately pulled the car door open and dragged Li Qing, who was sitting in the drivers seat, out of the car. After that, he got into the drivers seat, stepped on the gas pedal, and drove off.
If*ck Li Qing stood alone outside the airport, looking confused, How will I get back ah, hey!
These five people brought Qing Yun to a clubhouse. The facilities of this clubhouse were very private, and there was a special reception at the entrance. Except for the frequent guests and some influential people, other idle people could not enter.
The five men familiarly walked into a private room and found their own seats.
The door of the private room closed behind Qing Yun. These people looked at Qing Yun, who was standing there alone, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and laughed maliciously.
Look, when I asked you to follow me, you refused. Now youre facing the five of us at the same time, isnt it terrifying? The person who spoke was called Zhou Ye, he was an arrogant rich second generation. He was somewhat talented in this aspect of the entertainment industry, but he usually played the craziest and even had quite a reputation on the internet.
Heh, Mr. Zhou, dont say that. Maybe the five of us together would be more in line with what he wants. Another person said disdainfully.
Although these people were disdainful on the surface, their eyes were glued to Qing Yun without blinking. They were initially obsessed with Qing Yuns appearance, and they did not hesitate to coerce him. The last time they saw Qing Yun was with Bai Xiyan. Although Bai Xiyans words enlightened them, Qing Yun was still like a small hook that caught their hearts and made them feel uncomfortable.
However, they have been in contact with Bai Xiyan since the last incident, and they have even looked at Bai Xiyan in a different light. As soon as they heard that Bai Xiyan was bullied by Qing Yun, they rushed to help him out.
Of course, whether it was helping Bai Xiyan out or satisfying the filthy desires of their hearts, only they would know.
We few have to let you know that Xiyan is different from you. He is a good actor while you are just something that sells sex.
Zhou Ye took a bottle of red wine and slowly walked into Qing Yun, This place is very private. We can play however we want. Come open the bottle of wine for me, and use your mouth.
However we want to play? Qing Yun suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked.
Right, dont worry, no matter how much you scream, you wont draw anyone here. Zhou Ye grinned and raised his hand to touch Qing Yuns face.
Yeah? Then this is a really good place.
As soon as Qing Yuns voice fell, only a bang sounded as he brought up the red wine that Zhou Ye had handed over and smashed the bottle onto his head.
Zhou Ye was instantly smashed in the head and sat on the ground. He looked up with a muddled expression, and his body was covered in a mixture of blood and red wine: You, you, you
Whats wrong with me? Qing Yun smashed it again, the broken bottle nearly scratching Zhou Yes face.
How was it? Is it fun? Qing Yun used the broken bottle to pick Zhou Yes chin and asked condescendingly.
Zhou Ye looked directly into his eyes, only to feel as if he had seen hell, and his entire body couldnt help shiver.
The other four reacted and immediately stood up. Yet, when Qing Yuns icy gaze swept over them with a hint of spiritual intimidation, they found themselves unable to raise a single thought of calling the police for help.
None of you, none of you can escape. Qing Yuns handsome, peerless face conjured up a heartwarming smile, but the thoughts of the five people in the room had long since flown away.
These five well-established men had never encountered a situation like this before. No coercion, no trickery, just a simple and brutal abuse, but it was completely too much for these men to bear. They could only get down on their knees and call Dad2.
They didnt expect that Qing Yun, who looked noble and handsome like a little prince, would end up beating people without mercy.
As soon as Ning Qianyuan entered, he was shocked by the scene inside the room.
Of the five men commonly known in the business world, four were on their knees and held their heads around Qing Yun. They looked like four shivering quails, while the other one was huddled on the ground covering his crotch.
The smell of blood and alcohol permeated the entire private room. Ning Qianyuan looked at the five miserable men in the private room and did not have the slightest sympathy.
These people deserved it, and Ning Qianyuan would make it worse for them.
He walked over and looked at Qing Yun, who was sitting on the sofa, and asked in a muffled voice, Is everything alright
It had been a long time since Qing Yun had had such a hearty fight, so he was in a very comfortable mood. Looking at Ning Qianyuan, he felt that the man looked a little more pleasing to the eye, so he nodded towards him with compassion.
Qing Yun picked up a clean wine glass and shook it. Zhou Ye, who was kneeling there, immediately moved over. He took a wine opener, opened a bottle of wine, and poured it for Qing Yun.
This scene made Ning Qianyuan feel incredibly irritated. He lifted his foot and kicked Zhou Yes shoulder. What kind of a person is he that has the right to pour wine for Qing Yun?
The paparazzi are the ones you got, right? Ning Qianyuans voice was grim as he looked at these five men on the ground. He was in a strange mood as he didnt expect that these men would dare to come after Qing Yun even though he had clearly given him protection.
I told them to buy themselves out of tonights news. Taking a sip of the ardent red wine, Qing Yun said coolly, I wont bother President Ning to stop the people for me in the future. Its quite nice to play with them.
Ning Qianyuan choked and became a little sullen; his entire mood fell.
But he was still a little worried, so he then asked, What if they put this out as your black material?
They wouldnt dare. Qing Yun said with a sneer, and the five people on the ground trembled together.
Li Qing, who was left at the airport, soon learned the news and managed to rush over. After all, Ning Qianyuan had just announced his comeback, so it wouldnt be good if there was some scandal. But he was obviously too late, as Ning Qianyuan and Qing Yun had already walked out.
Qing Yun didnt seem to be affected in the slightest, walking straight towards the car where He Lan had been waiting outside.
Ning Qianyuan, on the other hand, walked over with a sour face. This time, he didnt grab the drivers seat with Li Qing but climbed into the back seat.
Li Qing looked at his stern face and couldnt help but ask him, What? Whats the situation? Seeing how nervous you were before, I thought the person couldnt be rescued
Ning Qianyuan leaned back in his seat, not paying any attention to him at all, only looking sideways out the car window and gazing at Qing Yuns departing back.
Li Qing followed his gaze and curled his lips, Whats wrong with you? Hes such a great kid, but youre just giving him a hard time, making everyone in the company make fun of him. To say that you hate him, but you drove like crazy when you hear something happened to him, youd think.
At this point, Li Qing paused, and he slowly turned his head to stare at Ning Qianyuan in the backseat, looking horrified, F-ck, youre not looking at him with this damned look, are you?
What? Hes allowed to climb into my bed, but Im not allowed to look at him anymore? Ning Qianyuan replied in a harsh voice.
What did you say? Qing Yun crawled into your bed? When was that? Dont slander him. Hes so busy at the office every day, and he has no time for this. Instead, youre the one scheming to follow him around all the time, right?
Li Qing had been promoted to Qing Yuns number one fan. And now, when he heard Ning Qianyuan, a bear child, slandering his own idol, he immediately disowned him without thinking.
You dont know when he did it? Ning Qianyuans face was cold and hard, The information is something I asked you to look up.
Li Qing blinked his eyes twice, clearly a little confused about what Ning Qianyuan was talking about. He thought about it again and again before asking probingly, Youre talking about the last exchange meeting?
As Ning Qianyuan nodded silently, he heard Li Qing curse.
Bullsh-t, who told you that the person that day was Qing Yun? The one who gave you the drug was obviously a little star from Tianyuan Entertainment!
Now it was Ning Qianyuans turn to be confused. He stared blankly at Li Qing. His confused eyes seemed like a teenager who had gone astray: But I woke up the next day and saw him.
Li Qing was stunned, and when he reacted, he was immediately too angry to say anything. He pointed at Ning Qianyuan with his finger trembling: F-ck, Ning Qianyuan, you beast. You actually took my Qing Yun
He wiped his face and then cursed, Youre so fucking inhuman, arent you? You were drugged and confused and pulled Qing Yun into bed. When it was over, you still put on a bad attitude, Ning Qianyuan, you bear.
Ning Qianyuans brain seemed a little insufficient. He thought back and then said: I remember beating up the guy who handed me the drink. Then, the next day I saw a bruise on his shoulder blade. If it wasnt from me, then what else could it be?
You dont hit people towards the face, but towards the shoulder when youre f-cking angry? Li Qing cursed even harder when he heard this.
Ning Qianyuan was silent and sat there quietly. From head to toe, even his hair revealed a kind of helplessness.
What do you mean? Was he mistaken?
Was he the one who was drugged and forced Qing Yun and then taunted him afterward?
What did he say again? A thing that only climbs beds?
So, hes also responsible for the bruise on Qing Yuns shoulder?
Its no wonder that every time he sees him, Qing Yun looks so distant and indifferent. How could the incredibly arrogant Qing Yun give him a good look when he encountered such a thing!
And every time he says something, he still
Ning Qianyuan silently covered his face, his head turning red like a large tomato.
He felt that he was getting cold.
Thinking this way, Ning Qianyuan suddenly raised his head and began to get angry. He kicked the back of the drivers seat hard, You get off!
Li Qing was baffled by his kicks. But, in the end, he didnt want to be seen with this broken-hearted person and got out of the car himself.
Ning Qianyuan climbed from the cars back seat to the drivers seat and quickly chased after Qing Yuns car.
Li Qing stood by and was pelted by the flying dust: Being driven off again, dont you think of your agent as a human being, huh?
Did Ning Qianyuan chase after Qing Yun to explain?
No, this person is cowardly to death. Knowing that all sorts of things result from his own making, he has no face to see Qing Yun and simply retreated to his home like a turtle shrinking to its shell.
He even made an excuse to come back and adjust his status and didnt even go to work.
Ning Qianyuan thought about it a lot. He treated Qing Yun with an arrogant attitude, said words with a bit of coercion and temptation, and even threatened to support him. In Qing Yuns eyes, what is the difference between him and the five men?
None at all!
At the thought of this, Ning Qianyuan felt ashamed and angry at death. He didnt know how to face Qing Yun.
At this moment, the bearded and dejected mess, Ning Qianyuan, was knocking his head on the coffee table at home. The television started to play Seal the Sky. The opening song began with the fluttering clothes of Ling Hua Xianjun, followed by a glimpse of the stunning side of his face, which led people to not even be able to skip the beginning.
Ning Qianyuan focused on Ling Hua Xianjun on the TV, as if looking at Qing Yun himself.
The little puppy he had brought home whined and pulled at his pants leg in search of food.
Ning Qianyuan casually threw over a bag of puppy food and let him dig in and chew on it himself. He looked at the little puppy squirming around in the bag of dog food and sadly thought, Im afraid Im not as pleasing to the eye as this dog in Qing Yuns eyes.
Pleasing to the eye?
Ning Qianyuans eyes suddenly brightened, and he pulled the dog out of the dog food bag with both hands.
"
"
He remembered that Qing Yun quite liked this dog? Would he be pleased if I gave it to him?
Ning Qianyuan never thought that one day he would degenerate to the point where he would use his rival to win the heart of the one he liked.
Qing Yun did not see Ning Qianyuan until he received Hildes invitation to go abroad to shoot a movie.
As soon as he saw Qing Yun enter the set, Hilde was very excited and immediately welcomed him: Oh, God, you really do look so beautiful.
Not only did Hilde have such an exclamation, but the rest of the crew also rang with low gasps and whispers, Hes simply an angel!
Hilde took Qing Yuns hand and was about to kiss it, but he suddenly stopped and gave two dry laughs.
Qing Yun looked behind him, and as expected, he saw Ning Qianyuan sitting not far away, looking at the script in his hands, seemingly serious.
As if sensing Qing Yuns line of sight, Ning Qianyuan secretly lifted the script upward, completely covering his face.
The corners of his mouth curled up with a slight curve. It wasnt hard for Qing Yun to guess why this man had been avoiding him lately, so his mood became increasingly pleasant.
To celebrate Ning Qianyuans comeback, the first scene that starts the film is his scene, which coincidentally happens to be the one between Ning Qianyuan and Qing Yun.
Although his role is an Oriental Immortal, such characters in the western plays are dressed similarly to the Western Sorcerers. Therefore, what Qing Yun wore was only a simple white robe. It was simplified to emphasize Qing Yuns elegant temperament.
This scene is where the main character, Lance, played by Ning Qianyuan, is forced to bow down and become a slave to the Oriental Immortal, Xuan, played by Qing Yun, for the survival of the Druid clan.
Xuans character has many overlaps with Ling Hua Xianjun, so it doesnt pose much of a challenge to Qing Yun. He knows the kind of feeling that Hilde wants, so this scene is quite simple from his point of view.
It was the first scene in the movie, but it was NG 20 times, and the problem was with Ning Qianyuan.
