Falling Down the Pond

Chapter 61

Views:

The air froze to freezing point, and the room was so quiet that you could hear a needle drop.

Cheng Feichi let go of Ye Qin's hand, took a deep breath, and then slowly squeezed it out of his chest, so as to clear his chaotic brain.

He lost control, in a strange room, in front of Yeqin.

His right hand had a dull pain of swelling due to excessive force, and he moved his fingers to stretch out the palm that was still inflexible due to tendon rupture. Hearing a low "I'm sorry" from the person next to him, he only paused for a moment, then sat up and looked around.

Still too careless.

Before attending the reception, he heard that Cheng Xin single-handedly made trouble at Yi's house, so he hurried back to stop the farce. On the way to send Cheng Xin back to the residence, he heard hysterical crying and cursing all the way, and it was still lingering in his ears at the banquet. Faced with everyone's persuasion, he couldn't help but indulge himself and drink a few more glasses.

Afterwards, I was dizzy and just wanted to find a place to rest. I took the room card handed over by someone without any time to defend myself, thinking that it was really an empty room as the person said, and fell asleep on the sofa when I entered the door.

After sitting upright, the blood in the brain flowed back, and Cheng Feichi looked back at the cause and effect of the incident in a fully awake state, and found something strange in it. All of this was obviously arranged by someone, that person must have heard something, as to whether it was to set up a trick to make him stumble or to flatter him, a little investigation will reveal.

It's just that Ye Qin was not expected to be involved.

Cheng Feichi determined through observation that this is a normal suite in the hotel, closed his eyes, and raised his hand to pinch the space between his brows. The coincidences were too dense, he didn't know what role Ye Qin played in it, whether he approached him intentionally or was simply used, it was impossible to tell with the naked eye.

After all, Ye Qin has superb acting skills. He was able to play himself around six years ago. Now that he is an actor, his acting skills must be improved to a higher level.

Cheng Feichi stood up, picked up the coat thrown on the back of the sofa, and walked towards the door.

Ye Qin got up in a hurry, squatting for a long time, his legs became numb, and after taking two steps, his legs went limp and knocked against the marble coffee table, almost falling down.

Hearing the movement and turning around, Cheng Feichi saw that he was supporting his knees with his wrist with fingerprints on it, and raised his head. A small face with red lips and white teeth matched with wet and red eyes, stubborn and pitiful.

This reminded Cheng Feichi of the first meeting at the wine table when they reunited, he just looked at himself with such an expression, his eyes flicked from side to side, his lips were about to bleed, and he thought he didn't notice.

"I'm sorry." He said again, his voice hoarse and dry, "I don't know why this happened, but when I woke up, I saw you were..."

Cheng Feichi: "I see."

He had no time to distinguish the truth from what Ye Qin said, and he would check it himself. He didn't want to listen to Yeqin's explanation, because he was wary of the current situation, or out of subconscious lack of self-confidence.

In the past, he had enough confidence to remain rational and vigilant in various situations, and he has indeed done it in the past five years. Now it may be due to drinking, or it may be because he was too nervous to fall into the trap, and he is still in a state of self-defense. He doesn't want to listen anymore, for fear that his proud judgment will be influenced.

Ye Qin was stunned by his cold interruption. Seeing his slightly trembling right hand hanging by his side, he couldn't help but took two steps forward and said with concern: "Your hand..."

This time Cheng Feichi opened the door and walked out without waiting for him to finish.

Through the door panel, the sound of uniform footsteps gradually faded away until they could not be heard at all.

Ye Qin stood where he was, shook his head, and murmured absentmindedly: "I'm not... not playing love games."

His eyes were so sore, he raised his hand to cover his face, let the trembling eyelashes poke in his palm, and repeated to the air: "I'm sorry..."

Early the next morning, He Hansong, who was dining on the second floor of the hotel, gracefully put a muffin on the plate. He was about to return to his seat to enjoy breakfast when a gust of wind blew up behind him. He was caught off guard and thrown by his collar against the wall. Before he could yell, he was strangled by the neck.

"Did you do something wrong last night?" Ye Qin took the plate in his hand, put it heavily on the table next to him, and asked close to his ear.

He Hansong was pinched so hard that he couldn't breathe, and coughed a few times: "What... what was last night?"

Ye Qin carried him away from the wall, and slammed him hard again: "Don't play dumb for me, who else but you?"

The pain from the shoulder blade hitting the hard wall made He Hansong's scalp tense, but this was a dead corner of the restaurant and no one saw it. In order not to show his timidity, he raised his chin and looked down at Ye Qin, raised his eyebrows and said, "You took such a big deal, don't thank me, instead of revenge?"

Ye Qin's eyes became even more angry: "It really is you!"

He Hansong put his hands on the wrists that were pinching his neck, pulled them back hard, gasped for a few breaths, and sneered with his mouth tilted: "I don't know who is pretending, the big benefactor is obviously happy, To be a bitch, you have to set up an archway."

He has been unhappy with Ye Qin's noble appearance for a long time. What kind of poor young man from a rich family, who knows if it's a packaging gimmick, is also the lowest in the group and the least popular. He is only worthy of carrying shoes. Leopard dared to hook up with Tang Chong, he had long wanted to punish him.

Ye Qin was taken aback by his blunt and harsh words, and then realized: "Tang Chong asked you to do this, right? Where is he now?"

He Hansong naturally wouldn't say it. Seeing Ye Qin's distraught look, he felt joy in his heart, sneered and straightened his messed-up collar.

During the day, Ye Qin took a break during filming and called Tang Chong several times. He dialed three numbers one by one, but none of them got through.

This further confirmed his guess that what happened last night was most likely caused by Tang Chong. He saw that the relationship between himself and Cheng Feichi was unusual, so he deliberately played a trick on Cheng Feichi.

It may also be for the sake of flattery and favor. Thinking of this, instead of getting angry at being treated as a flattering gift, Ye Qin was worried about Qi Chengfeichi's situation. He had just returned to the country, and he didn't know the dirty and chaotic behind the domestic business field. If Tang Chong took the lead in engaging in these heresy and dirty methods, there would be a second one, and a third one.

The gossip circulating in the market is that Cheng Feichi has not yet gained a firm foothold in the Yi family. From Cheng Xin's attitude on the last phone call, it can be seen that if such a thing happens at this time, it will do Cheng Feichi all harm and no benefit.

Ye Qin dialed Cheng Feichi's number anxiously, wanting to send him a text message to remind him to beware of villains around him, so he stayed on the input interface for a few minutes, not knowing what name to start with.

Maybe Cheng Feichi would ignore his text messages, or maybe he would think he was playing tricks again.

Ye Qin was enveloped by a deep sense of powerlessness. He was afraid of being misunderstood by Cheng Feichi, and even more afraid that Cheng Feichi would ignore him again.

But this is the evil fruit he planted by himself, and now he can only solve it by himself. No matter how difficult and painful the process is, even if the plant that has taken root in the soil is dug out, it can only wither day by day, turning into dust along with the lush memories, never to see the light of day.

After finishing work and returning to the hotel in the evening, Yeqin wrote a note and stuffed it into the pocket of his suit that he hadn't returned yet.

As soon as it was packed, Zhou Feng called: "What are you busy with, I haven't gotten through all day."

Ye Qin didn't have much energy: "The signal is not good in the mountains."

"Still in the mountains? Aren't you going to shoot that "Indomitable Future"?"

Ye Qin turned on the speakerphone, put the phone on the table, picked up the medicine beside the bed, and sat cross-legged on the bed: "How do you know?"

"In my spare time, apart from chasing Yuanyuan, I spend all my time following you. I am the first to sign in to your super chat every day. How is it? Are you very touched?"

The wound has not healed yet, and the program he is about to film has a game session of launching into the water, so Ye Qin has to apply the medicine three times a day, grinning and saying, "Thank you, Officer Zhou, your time is precious, and you should be busy with your own work." Go ahead, don't bother me about it."

"You're welcome, you're 19 points with Yuanyuan, don't bother."

Ye Qin's emotions couldn't be aroused by the words of Xiaobao, he was silent for a while, and said with drooping eyelids, "I ran into him again yesterday."

"Where?"

"In a hotel suite."

Zhou Feng was silent for a moment, and said: "Aqin is indeed a good man, so he kidnapped him to open a house. If I had half the courage of you, Yuanyuan would have become my wife by now."

Knowing what Liao Yifang meant from Ye Qin last time, Zhou Feng was greatly shocked and depressed for a while. When Yeqin thought he was going to let go, he regained his strength and made a long list of new plans, as if he had injected another 400cc of chicken blood.

Ye Qin admired his spirit of repeated defeats and battles, and asked him how he did it. He said: "As long as I think that Yuanyuan may become someone else's wife or husband, I can't eat, sleep, or think about anything." Do it, I just want to chase him back."

Yeqin also had the same idea, but he dared not say it.

The more you think about it, the more ashamed you are. He was ashamed of his wishful thinking, waiting for Cheng Feichi's "I don't want to see you again" to shatter his last hope, and hoping that he would never say that to himself. In this way, he has a reason to continue to appear beside him, even if he never dares to raise his head again, his posture is lowered into the dust.

"I didn't kidnap it." Ye Qin said sullenly, "He and I were plotted against."

After listening to his narration, Zhou Feng used his imagination to make up a big drama, and sighed: "Your circle is really chaotic... Why don't you mention our home more when you go out? Although S City is a little far away, our old man is also It’s notorious, so maybe it’s a bit of a deterrent.”

Ye Qin refused: "You are not afraid that your father will beat you if he finds out." After a pause, he added, "However, I have other things I would like to ask for your help."

Five days later, Ye Qin checked the campus forum with his mobile phone in his hand at the recording site of the program. All the discussions in the posts about a certain former school girl with the surname Cheng were under control, and the ugly comments were either reported and deleted, or hidden and dealt with. There are endless discussions about Cheng Feichi's life experience.

"Is this what you... fan-control critics?" Zhou Feng asked in WeChat, as if he had seen through his motives, "You have worked so hard, are you going to Xueba to claim credit?"

Ye Qin was very satisfied with the results of the mutual help. He quit the forum and said, "Your Yuanyuan has been scolded by others, can you bear it?"

He just couldn't see someone saying that Cheng Feichi was not good at all. This problem existed in the past. At that time, he clearly defined Cheng Feichi as an enemy, but he couldn't hear others say that he was wrong. At the time, he thought it was because he hated people questioning his taste, but later he realized that it was called protecting the calf.

His brother is so good, no one is allowed to scold him.

Today's program to be filmed was also temporarily added by Zheng Yueyue. He Hansong and Ye Qin showed their faces as the exterior guests of this issue. The filming location was in a high-end hotel in S City, and the program team rented out one of the hotel's indoor swimming pools.

Ye Qin has been silent since entering the lounge to change clothes and put on makeup, and He Hansong's provocative words repeatedly seemed unheard of.

Assistant Xiaoyun whispered in his ear, "This shooting opportunity is not for his favor, sister Yueyue also said not to indulge him like this."

Ye Qin shook his head, he just wanted to keep a low profile. What Tang Chongzheng came up with last time had nothing to do with He Hansong, if he annoyed this small-bellied guy again, and brought Cheng Feichi into trouble, he would have no face to see him again.

He also didn't want to appear in front of Cheng Feichi without an appointment and be asked "how many times is this" by him again.

However, Ye Qin didn't want to cause trouble, but it didn't mean that others would tolerate him.

It is raining in S City today, the temperature is lower than the previous two days, the swimming pool is very cool, and the others are fine, but for Ye Qin, who is naturally afraid of the cold, it is a bit unbearable, half an hour in the water My hands and feet became stiff, and the blood in my whole body couldn't flow smoothly.

He is not a famous person and has no right to speak, so naturally he would not foolishly ask the staff to turn up the air conditioner. After the two-hour shooting, his face was pale and his lips were purple from the cold. Xiaoyun wrapped him in three layers of bath towels, and sat in the lounge with a cup of hot water for a long time without recovering.

"The clothes have been delivered to Mr. Cheng's assistant," Xiaoyun reported from the side, "I squatted downstairs."

Only then did Ye Qin react: "He... did he say anything?"

Ever since Tuo Zhoufeng found out that this hotel belongs to Yijia and the office headquarters is in the office building next to it, Ye Qin has been thinking about it. He was afraid that Cheng Feichi's resentment would be aroused if he contacted rashly, so he took the clothes with him while filming the show today and asked Xiaoyun to help deliver them to the front desk of the office building. He didn't expect to meet Cheng Feichi who came to inspect.

"President Cheng himself didn't speak, but the assistant beside him said... said..."

Xiaoyun was hesitant when she said this, Ye Qin couldn't wait to know, and asked, "What did you say?"

"Say... say... I don't need to send it in from now on, Mr. Cheng doesn't lack this piece of clothing."

Ye Qin sat blankly, as if digesting the meaning of this sentence. After two or three minutes, he stood up slowly: "Let's go, I have to go back to filming."

Xiaoyun handed over the clothes, and he changed his clothes, habitually touching the pockets of his trousers first.

Through the fabric, I reached inside, but I couldn't touch anything.

I touched all the other pockets on the clothes, still nothing.

Ye Qin suddenly panicked. He always carried the ring that Cheng Feichi gave him back then. When he first entered the circle, he wore it on his left ring finger openly. He was often asked by fans and reporters if he had a girlfriend. Coupled with the pressure from the company, he would Wear this ring with a rope around your neck, and hide it in your clothes so that no one else can see it.

Not many people know about it, unless they are very close to him and have lived in the same house.

Ye Qin ran aggressively to the lounge next door, but there was no one there. He called He Hansong with his mobile phone, and after answering the call, he hurriedly asked, "Where did you hide my ring?"

He Hansong on the other end relied on Ye Qin not being able to hit him, and said slowly: "What ring? The one you hang around your neck as a treasure?"

Ye Qin suppressed his anger: "Yes, where is it?"

"Hey, let me think about it. When I entered the lounge today, I saw it dropped on the floor. I thought it was some guest who threw it away... It looks like a Cartier. I don't know if it's true or not. It's just a diamond. Thanks to my sharp eyes, most people will definitely not see it..."

He Hansong deliberately kept things secret, and talked nonsense but didn't say where it was. When Ye Qin couldn't help but get mad, he had a "light flash" and said: "Oh, by the way, I have no place to throw it away after picking it up. I just threw it away before recording the show." Into the pool."

Ye Qin put down his phone and ran towards the swimming pool.

The swimming pool has just closed and is being prepared for recirculation. The water pump was humming, and Ye Qin was afraid that the ring would be filtered out, so he jumped down despite the obstruction of his assistants and staff.

An hour later, Yeqin bowed and apologized to the pool staff one by one, went back to the lounge, took off his wet clothes, squeezed them, put them back on, and still stuck to his body wet and sticky, which was extremely embarrassing.

Xiaoyun knocked on the door outside, and said in a flustered tone: "There are fans at the main entrance, I will lure them away, and you take the staff elevator."

Ye Qin sighed, thinking that the leak in the house happened to be rainy at night, and he would never meet fans wherever he went, and when he was so frustrated that he couldn't meet people, they would all come out one by one.

... Maybe they all came to see He Hansong.

Wearing a dry bath towel, Yeqin quickly walked across the swimming pool with his dripping hair, and followed the staff's instructions to the employee-only elevator.

He bent his back like a thief, and didn't dare to lift his head, because he spent nearly an hour looking for the ring in the cold pool water with the constant temperature system turned off. Now his limbs are still shaking, and his hands are still shaking when he presses the elevator button I couldn't stop shaking.

Fortunately the ring was found. Ye Qin opened his palm to look at the ring in his palm, and parted his mouth, showing a reassuring smile.

The elevator door opened, and he was still looking at the ring.

There were people inside, so he lowered his head and consciously walked to the corner and stood there. After the elevator door closed, he picked up the ring and blew on it, put it back on the ring finger of his left hand, and held it up in front of his eyes to look around, relying on the fact that there were no fans staring at him in the confined space.

It wasn't until another person in the elevator asked, "Which floor do you want to go to?" Ye Qin was shocked, and his eyes focused on the face he was dreaming of.

Reluctantly directing himself to press the button on the 1st floor, his entire brain tended to be blank, and sparks flashed like missing parts, and it fell apart and went on strike after a while.

Who would have thought that they would meet Cheng Feichi in this situation

Even if he wanted to meet him crazily during those five years and created countless strange ways to meet him in his mind, Ye Qin didn't dare to think so.

This is so bizarre.

Just when he was thinking desperately about how to explain to Cheng Feichi the reason why he was here with what little sanity he had left, something even more bizarre happened.

After the elevator descended three floors normally, it suddenly started to fall at a super speed, descending more than ten floors crazily.

Ye Qin was so frightened that he couldn't control himself in this situation. When the elevator stopped suddenly and the overhead light went out with a "snap", he had already slipped into the arms of another person on the elevator.

Compared with him, Cheng Feichi was so calm that he didn't seem to be in an elevator accident.

He pressed all the next floors in just a few seconds, and now he couldn't see his fingers. Not only did he not panic at all, but he also grabbed Ye Qin's arm and lifted him up when he was limp. , asked him to stand in the corner, and then freed up one hand to take out his mobile phone to make a call.

Ye Qin opened his mouth and gasped for breath, but his eyes were tightly closed, he didn't know whether it was from shame or fear. The hand wearing the ring was still on Cheng Feichi's body, grabbing the fabric of his shirt around his waist.

Although the other party didn't intend to push him away for the time being, he let go of his hand after taking a few deep breaths to calm down.

Slowly loosen one finger after another, no matter how entangled, it didn't take away a trace of warmth.

After Cheng Feichi made the emergency call, just as the phone screen went off, he heard Ye Qin, who was huddled in the corner, saying intermittently: "I... I didn't mean it." He swallowed, almost choked himself, and his voice became weaker, " This elevator... this... I didn't make it, I don't know... I don't know you... You are here too."

After hearing the explanation that the bull's head was wrong with the horse's mouth, Cheng Feichi's throat tightened for no reason.

He could hear Yeqin crying.
