RPAGF Chapter 177 Xu Qingran: I already said I don’t want to inherit the family business. If you force me,
Chapter 177 Xu Qingran: I already said I don’t want to inherit the family business. If you force me,
Ye Yan agreed to let Xu Qingran go on a blind date.
But the prerequisite is that Xu Qingran must tell the woman in person that he is gay, and the conversation must be recorded as evidence.
This was not difficult for Xu Qingran, as he didn't want to disappoint Ye Yan again.
He hoped that Ye Yan would run towards him with a smile as soon as she saw him, just like before.
The flower basket arrived the next day. Ye Yan was still not surprised. She just glanced at it and told the delivery worker to move the flower basket in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Plants need photosynthesis to live longer, and he hopes that he has reconciled with Xu Qingran before these flowers wither.
Coincidentally, not long after the flowers were delivered, he received a message from Qiu Yuan.
[Xiao Yan, I received flowers today. I heard that Xiao Xu had someone pick them specially for me at the manor. Your dad smiled for a long time when he saw them and said that the pain wasn't as severe anymore. He asked you to thank Xiao Xu on his behalf.]
Ye Yan: I understand, Auntie. Thank you for your hard work. If you are bored, you can shop online and use my card.
After replying to Qiu Yuan, Ye Yan walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the huge flower basket that was only slightly shorter than the entrance elevator with amorous eyes.
"I really doubt that if it weren't for Qiao Lin, you would have been dumped by me eight hundred times already."
Ye Yan said something sarcastic and told the truth. Although she seemed dissatisfied, she still opened the camera and took a selfie with her back to the flower basket.
He smiled warmly in the photo, and the thousands of roses in the background were not half as bright and beautiful as him.
A week later, Xu Qingran kept his promise and sent a voice message to Ye Yan.
Ye Yan was looking at the invitation contract for a reality show. He didn't want to participate, but Xiao Rui persuaded him to go and relax.
He has been exhausted for a long time because of Ye Youcheng's matter. He needs to adjust his mentality, otherwise he will become depressed again.
Just when I was struggling, Xu Qingran's voice message came.
Could it be that he was going on a blind date? Ye Yan guessed, feeling a little uncomfortable but still clicking on it.
"Hello, sorry for the wait. There's a traffic jam outside."
"It's okay, I just got here too. By the way, I like men, what about you?"
Phew! Upon hearing this, Ye Yan almost swallowed the cherry that she had just put into her mouth along with the core. She coughed several times before getting up from the sofa and vomiting into the trash can.
It’s a familiar tune, and I miss it but it’s also incredibly awkward.
Due to the other party's long silence, Ye Yan wiped his mouth after spitting and continued with the woman's response.
"Haha~ You're really interesting. You've already made your stance clear as soon as I sat down. Are you sure you already have a partner and are watching you?"
"You even figured that out? You're really smart, you're worthy of being the female CEO."
"I'm not smart at all, it's you who recorded it too obviously."
"Um... sorry, that should be about it. I'll turn it off then, ahem~"
The voice stopped abruptly, and Ye Yan was speechless.
"Is he crazy?" Ye Yan said to him, picked up the milk tea on the coffee table and took a sip.
This was what Xiao Rui ordered for him, the same brand that Xu Qingran ordered for him last time, with 5-cent sugar.
It was a bit too sweet for Ye Yan, but he took this step for the sake of his health. Patients with severe hypoglycemia were suspected of losing all means.
He did not reply to Xu Qingran, but still took a photo of the milk tea and posted it on his personal homepage because Xu Qingran was a good worker.
The caption is, try something sweet, I heard it will make you feel better.
This post received over 100,000 likes in seconds.
Just as he was contentedly preparing to continue reading the reality show script, another hot search push caught his attention.
Xu Qingran dated a mysterious woman at a restaurant last night
Ye Yan's rumored boyfriend, Xu Qingran, the sole heir of ATIM Group, had dinner with a mysterious beauty at Venus Restaurant last night, seemingly breaking the rumors of their homosexuality.
It's reported that before Xu Qingran took over, he concealed his identity and worked as Ye Yan's assistant. During this time, he gained a small amount of fame after guest-starring in a movie starring Ye Yan. After the movie was released, many true and false romance rumors circulated between him and Ye Yan. Now...
He was photographed. Ye Yan didn't even finish reading the crappy copy written by the marketing account and directly clicked into the comment section.
He wanted to know whether netizens believed that he and Xu Qingran were real, or whether they believed that Xu Qingran was a straight man.
He was quite curious. If he wasn't curious, he wouldn't always be so pissed off by the haters.
Sure enough, this time it didn’t seem to be any better.
[Why is the woman censored? Who is she? Is she an amateur?]
[I'm saying this: Ye Yan has never admitted to the scandal with Xu Qingran, and has denied it more than once. Some people just turn a blind eye. Those who called Ye Yan a homosexual should come and apologize!]
[Didn't we break up? Can't we date after breaking up?]
[You live under their bed? Just open your mouth and say it.]
[It’s great that Qingyan CPbe is here. We are hopeless.]
[Eating together means being in love, right? It's not like they were photographed kissing.]
[As an aside, Xu Qingran is so damn handsome, even his hair is handsome. The girl also looks good-looking, more elegant than Bai Wenwen, they are quite a match.]
[I'll wash it. Xu Qingran and this woman are actually sisters.]
[I don't care, I don't care! But Ye Qingyan is the real one! If Xu Qingran dares to talk about a girlfriend, I will blow up the earth!]
The Internet is very exciting, just like Ye Yan’s expression.
However, Xu Qingran, who was having a rare gathering with his brothers, didn't know that when he checked his phone out of habit after three rounds of drinks, he had already successfully topped the entertainment charts as the heir to a wealthy family.
For the first time in history, he didn’t get the headlines by riding on Ye Yan’s popularity. He was so excited that he jumped up from the sofa in the private room.
"Fuck, who's looking for death!?"
Seeing him suddenly get angry, Jiang Hao, who was unaware of the situation, thought something was wrong with him and quickly turned off the music. The private room suddenly became quiet.
"What's wrong? Did anyone bother you just now?"
Cheng Liyang, who was sitting next to him, looked up at him, confused.
If he remembered correctly, Xu Qingran had just lost a roll of the dice to him, so he shouldn't be so angry.
So he stood up silently and leaned over to take a look at his phone screen, and he immediately gasped.
Seeing this, the others did not gather around, but instead tried to open the social networking site as if nothing had happened.
As expected, the brothers looked at each other, looking very ugly as if they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
"I was wondering what could have made our busy Master Xu so upset? It turns out it's a rumor. The wife has something to appease again. Oh, have you plucked all the flowers in your manor?"
Shao Zheng was enjoying the fun, and the next second Xu Qingran picked up the apple on the table and threw it towards him, but he caught it accurately.
"It's just a joke, but this is worth celebrating, Qingran. It's headline news. This is the first time for an 18th-tier actor like you to make headlines without Ye Yan's help, right?"
I'm sorry, brothers. This time we really couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Hahaha~ I'm sorry, I really can't help it~" Yue Chuyun covered his mouth and held it in with difficulty.
Jiang Hao also lost his mind, "Not really... Didn't you report it in advance? Ye Yan shouldn't be angry, haha~"
"Fuck you! I finally managed to coax him into giving me another chance, but these damn paparazzi ruined it all. Shao Zheng, you're the one who laughs the most, so you buy me dinner tonight."
After Xu Qingran finished speaking, he called Qiao Lin with a gloomy face, and was full of aggression after the call was connected.
"What's wrong with you? Didn't you see the news?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, I saw it, but I didn't take it down..."
"Could it be that my mother had someone send it?"
When Qiao Lin said that they had not withdrawn and did not dare to notify him, he immediately guessed it. If Lin Anyi had not stopped them from withdrawing, Xu Qingran would not have thought of the second reason.
Congratulations to him for getting the answer right.
"Well, but there are other ways. If you are not afraid of family discord, you can just clarify the matter yourself and solve it. If you delay any longer, Ye Yan will be in trouble..."
Qiao Lin gave him an idea, the kind that would slap his parents in the face.
Xu Qingran was originally still considering whether he should really do everything for Ye Yan, even if his recklessness would cause heavy damage to ATIM Group.
But think about it, Ye Yan said that he would only forgive him if he made the greatest sacrifice, so maybe now is a good opportunity.
He hesitated, but not for long.
This time, he will resolve everything before Ye Yan becomes unhappy because of his scandal.
Including the ten-year estrangement between him and his parents.
"I now order you to do one thing. Send a message to all the major media outlets. ATIM Group President Xu Qingran has close ties with the Tiandao Society. If Ye Yan forgives me, I will find a way to clear things up. If he feels this level of sacrifice is not enough, then I will continue to raise the stakes until he is satisfied."
"Are you kidding? That's gang-related. Being cyberbullied is the least of your worries. You might even have to go out for tea."
"I'm not kidding you. No one can stop me from getting Ye Yan back, including him."
Xu Qingran was confident and resolute, thinking to himself, now I have made the greatest sacrifice, put you above the company, and expressed my determination to my parents. There is no reason for you not to forgive me.
Qiao Lin knew he was crazy, but he didn't expect him to be crazy to this extent.
It was all for love. Who would believe that he was not in love? He used his family's reputation to apologize. He is simply the greatest "filial son" in the history of five thousand years!
Two words, and he was convinced.
