After the breakup, my identity as a singing god was exposed
Chapter 149: Crisis of Qingyu
Liu Xuan's feelings towards Lu Yuqing became blurred again.
Deep down, he didn't want to admit that he liked her, but it was hard to say whether he really liked her or not.
Even though I had a moment of excitement, I no longer had any impulsive thoughts.
Since he chose Chang Qian, he should be responsible for her to the end. This is the responsibility he should bear.
As for Lu Yuqing's liking for her, he thought of it more as a kind of affection.
Many times, Liu Xuan couldn't see his own heart clearly, just like looking at an island that didn't exist. From not being able to see the woman on the island clearly at the beginning to later determining that the woman was Chang Qian, it was just a subjective conjecture in a sense.
In fact, the island could be a city, a house, or anything. The woman could be any woman, and the one who ultimately decides who gets to live there is the one who has to be her.
When they came out of the hospital, the police who brought them there were still waiting and wanted to take the two to the police station to take a statement.
When they came out of the police station, it was already past two in the afternoon. Lu Yuqing saw Liu Xuan's clothes soaked in blood and suggested going to the mall to buy a piece of clothing.
Liu Xuan did not refuse, and finally, accompanied by her, they went to the mall to buy a down jacket.
After changing his clothes and coming out of the mall, Liu Xuan drove non-stop to Fulongping.
When passing by a mobile phone store on the road, Lu Yuqing bought a mobile phone for the old man.
For the elderly, smartphones may be useless, they can't be used and can't be thrown away. But they must keep in touch with each other so that they can at least know the situation first. In addition, two things that happened to Li Qiongyao's grandmother recently made Liu Xuan more determined to build a house in the countryside.
If I stay in this place any longer, I'm afraid these people may have accomplices and take revenge on me.
In the car, Lu Yuqing seemed to be in a better mood. She looked at Liu Xuan with a smile and said, "Brother Liu Xuan, why are the police here? Did you call the police?"
Liu Xuan nodded and said, "When I came back, I realized something was wrong and called the police before entering the yard."
"After the last time Li Qiongyao was kidnapped, I had to be more cautious."
Lu Yuqing smiled sweetly: "We haven't eaten lunch yet, should we buy some food and cook it at home?"
Liu Xuan nodded: "Okay."
When I arrived at Li Qiongyao's house with the vegetables I had bought, the old man was sitting by the bed with a cane, his eyes full of anxiety.
Seeing Liu Xuan and Lu Yuqing coming in, the old man hurried over to greet them, his tone full of worry: "Xiaoqing, are you okay?"
Lu Yuqing stretched out her uninjured arm and took the old woman's hand: "Grandma, it's just a skin injury. I got a few stitches and it's fine now."
"You've worried me to death. If anything happens to you, my life won't be enough to pay for it!"
The old man frowned and held Lu Yuqing's hand: "Alas, it's all my disappointing son's fault. It's okay that he hasn't come home for so many years, but he's always fooling around outside. I'm worried about Qiong Yao. If something happens to her, what should I do? Tell me."
Lu Yuqing's mood also became depressed because of the old man's words.
Li Qiongyao is undoubtedly on the edge of danger now. If these people have a revengeful mentality, they might really attack Li Qiongyao.
This made Liu Xuan doubt the way he handled the matter. He should have transferred the money to this group of people first, and then called the police after some time. This way, there would be no connection between the two parties, and they would not be able to retaliate against Li Qiongyao.
Liu Xuan knew that anyone who dared to commit such a crime in broad daylight must be a desperate criminal with some background. Perhaps he had offended a force that should not be underestimated.
He and Lu Yuqing were both public figures, so they were naturally not afraid of retaliation. Especially Lu Yuqing's identity was more sensitive, and once something happened to them, it would cause a great social reaction.
He was afraid that Li Qiongyao's grandmother, who had no background, would become the target of these people's anger. This forced Liu Xuan to make a decision as soon as possible. Now he should not let the two stay in this place any longer.
Liu Xuan looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, I think for safety reasons, you and Qiong Yao should move out tonight."
The old man sighed and said, "We don't have any relatives outside, so where can we move to?"
Liu Xuan thought for a while and said, "I'll discuss it with Xixi. Qiongyao will move to my old house first and live with Yanyan first. You can go to Weishuihuafu with me to live for a while. When my house in the countryside is built, you can move to the countryside."
The old man looked embarrassed: "Xiaoxuan, this is too much trouble for you. I can't owe you too much. I can't afford to pay you back with my old bones. I am already half buried in the ground. I am not afraid of these people."
Liu Xuan frowned: "Grandma, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Qiong Yao. You also said that you are my grandmother, and Qiong Yao is my sister. How can I let my sister fall into danger?"
The old man was very conflicted and finally sighed deeply.
"Besides, I've always wanted to have a home in the countryside. If you can go there, it will help me realize this dream."
Liu Xuan squatted beside the old man. He had always wanted to build a house in the countryside as a spiritual sustenance.
In this world, he is like duckweed floating on the water, or more like a fallen leaf in the wind, with no place to take root. Even if he has millions in savings, he is always empty inside. This is why he was so conflicted when he sold the house that year.
Even though that house didn't have the soul of a home.
It was not until he was with Chang Qian that he felt a little at home, at least he was no longer alone.
He really wanted to paint a house, a window, a bed, and a family as a residence for his soul, just like what Zhao Lei sang in "Painting", so that he could take root in this world.
The old man finally nodded in agreement.
After this matter was confirmed, Liu Xuan went to light the fire and cook, while Lu Yuqing chatted with the old man.
Soon, a sumptuous meal was served.
Liu Xuan took off his apron and invited the two to eat.
Lu Yuqing helped the old man sit down at the dining table. Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, her eyes sparkled: "Brother Liu Xuan, you are also a great cook. How can there be such a versatile person like you in the world?"
Liu Xuan smiled and told a joke that wasn't very funny: "I had a dream before. In the dream, I had my family. Every time I went home, my mother would always prepare a table of sumptuous meals and wait for me at home. The father in my dream was serious and a very rigid person, but every time when I needed help, he would always be by my side at the first time. He was good at making sweet and sour pork ribs, and my mother was good at cooking fish. I learned my cooking skills from them in my dreams. How about it, isn't it amazing? I brought the things in my dreams into reality?"
Lu Yuqing felt very unhappy after hearing this, but still forced a smile and gave a thumbs up.
What Liu Xuan said were all his experiences in his past life, and a question about his past life would bother him from time to time. Was he trapped in a dream at this moment, or was his experience in his past life a dream from which he had already woken up?
Although he had a hard time in his dream, he could still feel the warmth of home. Now he is very rich, but in life, he is still a poor and empty person.
Perhaps this is what people often say, there is gain and loss. But in the dream, there is no power to change, can only follow its direction, try to make yourself live better.
After dinner, Liu Xuan called Chang Qian and told her about his experience today.
Chang Qian was very worried when she learned about this and repeatedly checked whether Liu Xuan was in trouble.
After making sure that Liu Xuan had no accident, she said she would come over after get off work in the evening. As for Liu Xuan's proposal, she had no objection.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Xuan cleaned up the dishes.
After doing all this, it was already past four in the afternoon.
Lu Yuqing looked at Liu Xuan: "Come for a walk with me."
Liu Xuan nodded: "Yeah."
He also needed to calm his frightened heart.
Walking side by side with Lu Yuqing through the alleys, due to the lack of sunlight, there were some floating ice covering the water surface in many places where water accumulated.
Lu Yuqing stood with her hands behind her back, taking small steps at a time, like a nimble elf.
Liu Xuan wondered, if Lu Yuqing didn’t have that background in Yanjing and was just a singer, would there be any possibility for them to be together?
He couldn't guess the answer. The fact was, Lu Yuqing was the eldest daughter of a wealthy family in Yanjing.
So he could never describe his feelings towards Lu Yuqing. When Lu Yuqing was happy, he would laugh with her, and when she was sad, he would feel sad too.
But he still didn't feel that this was what could be called love. If this was love, it disappeared too quickly.
In his heart, he often used the time they had known each other as an excuse for not liking Lu Yuqing, but he also knew that this excuse was not valid because he and Chang Qian had known each other for even less time.
If his confession to Chang Qian was a momentary impulse at that time, then now it was the result of long-term love, to the point where they could not leave each other.
Maybe he was indeed attracted to Li Ruoxi back then, but during those days of frustration, after Chang Qian broke into his life, he always felt that he had let go of his obsession with Li Ruoxi.
He felt that even if he stood in front of Li Ruoxi now, he should be able to face it calmly and there would not be any more heart-wrenching moments.
Unfortunately, he didn't have the opportunity to put it into practice. Ever since Li Ruoxi and Shi Yu got together, they had lost contact.
After walking in the alley for a long time, the two men came to the cement road.
After a long silence, Lu Yuqing stopped and turned to look at Liu Xuan: "Brother Liu Xuan, I will stay in Jincheng from now on and don't plan to return to Yanjing."
Liu Xuan was stunned, and then blurted out: "What about Gu Jingchen?"
Lu Yuqing frowned: "Why do you care about Gu Jingchen instead of the reason why I stayed in Jincheng?"
Liu Xuan smiled bitterly. In his subconscious, Lu Yuqing was already the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, so he asked his doubts without hesitation. Facing Lu Yuqing's question, he didn't want to face the answer that he didn't want to know. The answer that would make him feel guilty.
So he said, "I thought you had compromised with your father's arrangement."
Lu Yuqing shook her head and said calmly, "Gu Jingchen and I are just ordinary friends, not even friends. Last time we came to Jincheng together, he insisted on coming with me. I don't like him."
Liu Xuan knew that he was overthinking, so he said, "Tell me about your future plans."
“The clear fish may be gone.”
Lu Yuqing's words made Liu Xuan's eyes widen.
It seems that Haiyuan has gained an advantage in this competition, but no matter what, it is impossible to make Qingyu disappear completely. After all, its roots are there, and it is not an easy task to completely topple this big tree.
Fortunately, Lu Yuqing's answer also made him feel relieved. The reason why she stayed in Jincheng was not because of him.
Lu Yuqing understood Liu Xuan's surprise and explained, "I don't know how Haiyuan collected evidence of Cao Weiwang bribing senior government officials in Yanjing, involving gray industries, and seducing artists without their consent. There is evidence of everything, and Cao Weiwang may face imprisonment."
Liu Xuan narrowed his eyes. This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. It can be said that many bigwigs have similar experiences. However, being caught by someone, especially involving an industrial chain that touches the bottom line of the law, is tantamount to suicide.
Cao Weiwang might be a very shrewd person. If it was just the unspoken rules with the artist, it would not be a big deal. But it involves government officials and the gray industry, it is not so easy to solve.
Especially since Qingyu was in Yanjing, within the three-foot red wall was the location of the highest central government institution in China. This was simply a move that would offend the emperor.
"So what are your plans?"
Liu Xuan looked at Lu Yuqing. As she said, there were only two paths before him. Either Qingyu was acquired and he would go to a new entertainment company, or he would terminate the contract with Qingyu and choose another entertainment company.
Of course, for Lu Yuqing, there is another way to go, that is to return to Yanjing, participate in the marriage, marry Gu Jingchen, and then become a wealthy wife.
But Lu Yuqing obviously did not intend to make such a decision.
