CFJTM Chapter 169. “I really like him, I love him”

TN: I love this chapter. I reread it so often (w´ω｀w)

“It’s not much,” Han Cheng laughed. “His company went bankrupt, and his car and house are gone. But look, isn’t the person still in good shape?”

This is called not much ? ? ?

And he is in good shape, but you have sent to jail!

Is this not much?

Shen Qingshu looks at his gentle boyfriend and thinks that his boyfriend is really a smiling tiger.

He looks like a domestic cat, gentle and easy to coax. But once he gives you a claw at a critical moment, your blood can splash three feet. His boyfriend is really awesome!

Three months later, Han Cheng took time to visit the prison.

He watched as Yan Jiayu was brought out by the warden. He had lost a lot of weight and his face had noticeably sunken. When Yan Jiayu saw him, his mood obviously fluctuated, and his eyes were full of hatred.

Han Cheng was a little surprised. He thought Yan Jiayu would have calmed down after so many days. Unexpectedly, he still felt like that.

“Did you come to laugh at me?” Yan Jiayu asked him, “Now you are happy, satisfied, rejoicing ? !”

“Didn’t you want to see me before?” Han Cheng said to him, “I just let you see me as you wished.”

“Han Cheng! How can you do this to me!” Yan Jiayu said in agony.

He has been thinking over and over again these days, about their past, about the time they spent together.

They used to share deep affections. They could go to each other’s home and talk about their future together.

But now, he has personally sent him to prison.

“What am I to you?” He looked at Han Cheng, his tone was sour, “We’ve known each other for ten years, but after ten years your heart hasn’t softened to me. Do you really hate me so much? Do you like him so much?”

Han Cheng looked at his agonised expression. After a long time, he sighed in his heart.

“What does this have to do with him?” He said, “You colluded with Shen Qingyu. You did something against the law and discipline, and so you were sent to prison. This is the normal legal procedure. You should have thought about the consequences when you committed a crime. It was you who broke the law, so you deserved this. What does this have to do with me and him?”

“If you hadn’t told Xu Hui, would she have thought of me? If you hadn’t kept putting pressure on the investigation, I wouldn’t have come here at all! You were the one who planned everything, Xu Hui just had to show up and cleanly speak up for Shen Qingshu. But ultimately, you fixated on Shen Qingyu’s case. If Shen Qingshu hadn’t instigated you, would you have cared about Xu Hui’s life and death?”

Han Cheng smiled, “Then based on your logic, do you think your family’s money can make you exempt from the law? Have you been abroad for so long that you don’t even know what kind of country this is?”

“Yan Jiayu, you have violated the law, and you deserve to be arrested. If you don’t understand and feel unwilling, you can ask the prison guard for a pamphlet on the law. I believe he will be very willing to give you the easy to understand version of the law and what is illegal.”

“I don’t want to hear you talk about him!”

“What do you want to hear?” Han Cheng looked at him with a calm face, “I want to tell you that I really like him and I love him, so whoever wants to hurt him, I will make them get the punishment they deserve. Or do you want to hear of how I really hate you, because you almost made me lose him, and you put him in danger, causing me to panic, so I can’t let you continue to get away with it like nothing has happened. “

“What do you want to hear? Are you happy when I say this?”

Yan Jiayu listened to his words and suddenly laughed, sad and embarrassed, “I knew it, I knew it.”

He looked at Han Cheng, laughing and crying, “You love him. But how long have you known him? What do you love? What can he do, but I can’t? I like you, too. We have had so many good times. Why don’t you look at me?”

“When did I not look at you?” Han Cheng sneered, “You like me? Do you believe your own words? We all know who you like, don’t we?”

“But I don’t love him anymore. Later I really liked you and wanted to be with you.”

“Do you believe that?” Han Cheng said coldly, “I don’t believe it.”

“You may have really loved my brother, but you love yourself more, so you were unable to let me go, and pestered me endlessly. You’re not the only one who remembers our past, I also remember, so I haven’t investigated you for ruining my reputation, nor retaliated against you for trying to create conflict between me and my ge. I remember that we used to be friends, so even if we parted, I hoped it would be on good terms.”

“You have been chasing after me, you are too greedy, you want love, you want material things, you want my ge to look back at you, you want me to be unable to let you go. You want everything, so you won’t leave , so you are jealous, you are not reconciled.”

“You had no way to attack me and my brother, so you contacted Shen Qingyu and aimed at Shen Qingshu,  but what did he do wrong? From the beginning to the end, he never took the initiative to cross you.”

Yan Jiayu said with a snort, “Of course you don’t think he’s wrong. He can do no wrong in your heart. Now you only have him in your heart and won’t dislike anything he does. You can forgive him even If he is with your ge behind your back, can’t you?”

Han Cheng seemed to be reminded by him “Now that you mention it, that was all fake. You were deceived.”

“What did you say?!” Yan Jiayu was shocked.

“You say you like my ge. That you have loved him for so many years. Don’t you even know what kind of person he is?”

“How could he have done that?”

“Since the first time you tried to cheat, you two were doomed to be impossible. He will not like anyone I hate, let alone anyone who calculated me with impure thoughts. That day in the hotel, he and Shen Qingshu just cooperated with each other to act in a play for you. It was disgusting, wasn’t it? Obviously being ambiguous with one brother, but still entangling with the other brother.”

Yan Jiayu was stunned and stared at him in shock.

After a long time, he raised his hands to cover his face, and tears stained his palms.

“Did you have anything to do with VE?” He asked in a hoarse voice.

“Yep.” Han Cheng said frankly, “I found them, bought their company, and let them compete with you viciously. I know you look down on such small companies. Sure enough, you didn’t take them seriously.”

“I knew it.” Yan Jiayu laughed, “Sure enough, everything is the revenge you planned”

“I went to see you, and hoped you could admit your mistake. I hoped you would tell me that you were just momentarily confused, and that there will be no next time. If you had, I would have left it to the law to punish you, but you didn’t admit it, you felt no regret. You felt no shame at all, to the point you could even laugh.”

“How could you laugh?” Han Cheng asked him with a soft voice. “You don’t really think that if something happens to him, you can still live well, can you?”

“I would kill you.” He said quietly, “So that you can go down to accompany him, drag your entire Yan family and their property to be buried with him.”

Yan Jiayu listened to his placid tone without a ripple, but he felt strangely shaken.

Han Cheng’s face was completely serene, as if he was talking about the most common thing, but this was not the Han Cheng he knew.

How did Han Cheng be way?

How could Han Cheng possibly be like this?

Yan Jiayu watched on as he laughed again, saying softly, “Of course, he is fine now, and you have been left to the law for punishment. Your part of the family business has collapsed, and I won’t bother with the rest.”

He looked at Yan Jiayu and whispered, “This is the best outcome for both of us.”

Yan Jiayu did not speak again.

He didn’t know what to say, and he seemed to have nothing left to say.

Han Cheng’s abnormal remark made all his words become stuck in his throat.

He really likes Shen Qingshu and will only like him.

He laughed at himself and lowered his head.

Han Cheng stood up and said, “Then I’m leaving. I hope you can turn over a new leaf and be a new man from now on. I will  watch as you serve your sentence.”

Yan Jiayu did not reply.

Han Cheng turned around and went out of the visiting room.

It’s clear and sunny outside.

After Shen Qingshu finished the last publicity activity, he can finally rest for two more days.

The box office of “Plundering Time” has stabilised now. The crew held a celebration dinner, and everyone talked happily and looking forward to the next red carpet reunion.

“Meng ge is sure to win an award this time. His acting skills are so awesome that no one who has seen it will fail to praise his performance.”

“Hou ge also has a chance at best supporting male lead. I think he can do it!”

Shen Qingshu listened to them with a smile, and without interrupting, he ate snacks quietly.

Meng Zhi looked at him and asked him, “How is the post production of your film?”

“Still editing.”

“When can I watch it?”

“This summer vacation.” Shen Qingshu said, “I will send some movie tickets to Meng ge.”

“Good.” Meng Zhi smiled and said, “Maybe we can compete for the best male lead together.”

“Don’t tease me, Meng ge.” Shen Qingshu said shyly, “my acting skill isn’t enough to compete with you yet.”

Meng Zhi also said it casually and didn’t take it seriously, so he didn’t tease him any more and had a drink with him.

Shen Qingshu drank two cups, but he didn’t drink any more, because he was afraid of getting drunk.

Everyone did not embarrass him, and kept talking to him about other topics, the atmosphere was very lively.

It was not until midnight that the celebration was finally over. Shen Qingshu also got in the nanny car and was ready to go home.

Han Cheng hasn’t slept yet. Hearing sounds outside the door, he came out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Shen Qingshu standing outside.

The light is bright, illuminating Shen Qingshu outside the door as well as Han Cheng inside the house.

For a moment, the hearts of both of them seemed to quiver slightly.

Shen Qingshu looks at the person in the house, with the light softening his handsome eyebrows, he seems to be infinitely gentle.

He opened his arms and looked at Han Cheng with a smile. “I’m back.”

Han Cheng laughed instantly, went out and picked up the man and carried him into the room.

“Welcome home.” He said.

Shen Qing smiled brightly. He hooked his arms around Han Cheng’s neck and kissed him on the face.

The dead of night is the perfect time for a reunion.

Shen Qingshu had finally returned and Han Cheng couldn’t keep himself away.

Because Shen Qingshu was busy with film promotion, he was lonely and neglected for a long time. Now that he has finally managed to catch him, tonight will definitely be a spring night, until morning. Tomorrow the emperor will not be waking up early.

Shen Qingshu turned over in his arms with a smile and poked him on the shoulder “I don’t have much work planned for the near future, so I can accompany you.”

“Really?” Han Cheng asked suspiciously.

“Of course.” Shen Qingshu said, “Except for the post production of Ephemera.”

Han Cheng already knew about that, “How’s the editing going? Is it almost ready?”

“The rough editing has been finished, and now it’s just about adjusting the soundtrack and fine editing.”

“Do your best then.” Han Cheng said with a smile.

“En.” Shen Qingshu smiled back and hugged his waist.

The sound track is very important in a movie. Good can bring people into the movie’s emotions better, while bad soundtrack will bring a sense of dissonance.

Shen Qingshu, Mei Ruo and the music director selected several songs that all three people found satisfactory for the scenes. And specially invited a few people to sing several versions of the opening theme song and ending theme song, constantly matching with the scenes to test which one is more appropriate.

They were busy until May, when the first edition of Ephemera was finally ready. Shen Qingshu sat in front of the screen, waiting for Mei Ruo to play it.

TN: This gave me the satisfying feeling of crushing YJ one last time xD
