He Yiming knew that he had hurt Su Pei badly.
No matter what conflicts they had before, Su Pei never blocked him or deleted his contact information. This time, the "truth" was too ugly, and Su Pei could only refuse his "care" and "care" in this way.
He Yiming thought, he is now self-inflicted. He used to think that strangling this secret love completely would make him happy. But it was only today that he realized he was wrong.
Once such a thing happened, his first reaction was still - what would Su Pei think
He Yiming didn't call Su Pei again. The truth has not come out yet, and his explanation is too thin and abrupt. He can only wait and deal with things first.
Su Pei was completely silent here, but the Internet exploded, and many people around He Yiming were also asking what was going on.
He Yiming's official prepared a public relations draft about Qingquan, the center content is to point out that the rumors on the Internet are "false information" and they will restore the truth as soon as possible.
There is a lot of gossip on the Internet at this time.
Because He Yiming is young, handsome and unmarried, he has a lot of fans, and the female fans are no less than the male fans. As soon as the rumor of homosexuality came out, some fans actually liked it.
"Anyway, I can't sleep He Yiming, and other women don't want to sleep either!"
"Ah, I always thought He Yiming was gay! I'm pretty accurate."
"Qiu Ruoyang is really cute, only someone like He Yiming can be worthy of him"
"You don't take it seriously, do you? People like He Yiming must be just playing casually, thinking that he will be too funny to Qiu Ruoyang. It is Qiu Ruoyang's backer who is behind."
This is mixed with Qiu Ruoyang's fan-black battle, passers-by can't see the gossip.
But He Yiming's strongest fighting force is his otaku fan. This group of otaku fans are Mu He Yiming's strong, handsome, powerful, and full of masculinity. When He Yiming was in school, his family was in trouble. He carried debts to revive his family business and gained a place in the Internet. He is the most outstanding young rich man in the past decade, not to mention his face and body. He is simply the embodiment of the otaku's ultimate dream - to be successful, to play flowers.
So this gay rumor swore that He Yiming and Qiu Ruoyang had an affair. This is a dream shit for otakus - how could their most admired Mr. He like their most despised male idol? It must be Qiu Ruoyang who is creating a scandal! Actively wrapped up! Repost hype!
So the ruthless ridicule against Qiu Ruoyang began to output frantically. Looking at Qiu Ruoyang under the microscope, all the black spots were picked up and ridiculed, and screenshots were taken to make various collapse emojis, and a hundred rounds of battles with Qiu Ruoyang's female fan, Lolita, were made.
When the melee was in full swing, Yu Qingquan finally prepared concrete evidence. She first released a video - a surveillance video clip of He Yiming's birthday party. The video is not long, more than a minute, it is the content of all the pictures when Qiu Ruoyang and He Yiming are present at the same time. There were a lot of guests on the day of the party, so the video deliberately circled both of them. Twenty seconds before, although the two were in the same room, they were far apart. He Yiming has been paralyzed on the sofa while Qiu Ruoyang is talking to others. After a while, Qiu Ruoyang walked to the sofa. There was another person next to him. The two first stood in front of He Yiming, and after a while they sat down. Qiu Ruoyang sat beside He Yiming, but there was still a little bit. The distance and the sitting posture are also very restrained. At this time, He Yiming leaned forward to get the wine glass on the table, only for a few seconds, there was a difference in angle, and it looked like he was approaching Qiu Ruoyang. But they didn't meet again after that, and Qiu Ruoyang left quickly.
It can be clearly seen from this video that Qiu Ruoyang just came over to say hello to He Yiming. He Yiming was very estranged towards him, not like there was any close relationship at all.
After that, Yu Qingquan restored the details of the photo. In fact, it was just an ordinary photo, but it brought the distance between the two people closer, and also dropped the surrounding guests and other people sitting on the sofa, leaving only He Yiming and Qiu Ruoyang. ambiguous.
As soon as this solid evidence was released, Qiu Ruoyang immediately began to ridicule on the Internet. He Yiming's otaku fans seem to have won a big victory, and the otaku forum is full of cheerfulness.
"If He Yiming is gay, I will eat shi live."
"I really want to see how to eat shi upstairs."
"Do you guys think that He Yiming is absolutely impossible to be gay, or do you just hate Qiu Ruoyang?"
"Both."
He Yiming went to his mother's place for dinner that night. He didn't want to go, but Zou Yongmei called on purpose. He Yiming thought that Zou Yongmei should have known about the rumors on the Internet.
Zou Yongmei personally cooked dinner, stewed pigeon soup, and cooked tomato brisket, all of which were her specialty.
During dinner, Zou Yongmei mentioned Yang Ying, and she said, "I heard you met at the boxing gym last time?"
He Yiming said: "Yes, she has a friend who is a coach there. I met by chance."
Zou Yongmei immediately said, "Isn't that very good! You like sports, and she likes sports too. I heard from her mother that she has also run a marathon and has a very healthy lifestyle!"
She sounded anxious.
He Yiming said: "She didn't like me, and I didn't like her either."
Zou Yongmei stopped talking, she just ate silently. How could He Yiming not be able to sense his mother's emotions? He knew that Zou Yongmei was very depressed, and she hadn't asked what she really wanted to ask.
He served his mother a bowl of soup and said, "Did you see something on the Internet?"
Zou Yongmei immediately raised her eyes to look at her son: "I was angry when I saw it."
He Yiming said: "Don't pay attention to the rumors on the Internet. Didn't you see the clarification behind? That photo was taken out on purpose."
When Zou Yongmei heard his face-to-face denial, her mood immediately improved a lot: "I don't care, I don't care. The Internet is too messy, and there are all kinds of nonsense. I believe you."
She was in a much more relaxed mood, laughing and talking about trivia and jokes. She didn't want to ask any more details, just hearing He Yiming's denial was enough for her to feel happy at the moment.
Su Pei's birthday was spent in Zhou Ze's studio. He and Zhou Ze discussed the script together. In the evening, several people in the studio asked for takeout. Su Pei said that it was his birthday today, and he invited everyone to dinner.
So everyone went to a special hot pot restaurant near the studio, which was not expensive and lively per person.
During the meal, everyone talked about the latest industry news.
"Seven Stars Pendant" has finally been officially announced, announcing the production of a movie version, starring Qiu Ruoyang. Two days ago, I caught up with that wave of Qiu Ruoyang's black and red popularity, and the network traffic exploded.
As soon as "Seven Stars Pendant" was announced, it caused another wave of discussions. They were all speculating that Qiu Ruoyang's scandal with He Yiming had been hacked too badly. Was he hacked, or was he deliberately anti-hyped
Now it seems that the investors of "Seven Stars Pendant" may be doing something.
When Director Zhou Ze talked about this matter, he also wentssips, and he had some sympathy for Qiu Ruoyang.
"During this whole thing, neither of the two parties said anything. Did you notice that?"
Su Pei said, "He Yiming doesn't need to speak up. His public relations team helped him settle it."
Director Zhou Ze said: "Yes. He doesn't need to condescend to explain. Qiu Ruoyang has no voice of his own, and only issued a statement when the dust settles. Now the artists... are all controlled by the company. The company arranges hype and hype it up, and the company accepts whatever drama it wants to take. There are too few people who can jump out of it, so you must have courage, vision and ability.”
Su Pei didn't answer this, and he didn't comment on the "gossip" between He Yiming and Qiu Ruoyang.
Maybe He Yiming and Qiu Ruoyang haven't happened yet, but He Yiming is really gay. Su Pei didn't plan to tell anyone this secret.
If he hadn't discovered the watch that day, and hadn't broken the secret, he would have laughed at the rumor with everyone else—how could He Yiming be gay
But now he had nothing to say, as if nothing was right.
Fortunately, Zhou Ze stopped talking about this matter and turned to the recent audition. He said that he had a child on the Internet, and he felt very good, and he would see him in person in two days. He asked Su Pei to help him with reference.
After eating hot pot, the store gave today's birthday a small cake. Su Pei came home with this little cake.
He invited him to eat hot pot today, but he just didn't want to celebrate his birthday alone.
He was in a good mood at the moment, humming softly. When passing the garden of the community, a voice came from the pavilion in the garden.
"Su Pei."
Su Pei paused, his voice and footsteps stopped. He Yiming was sitting in the gazebo, obviously waiting for him. Seeing him coming, He Yiming walked out of the pavilion.
He walked in front of Su Pei, Su Pei couldn't help but took a step back.
He Yiming's teeth were sore, he felt that Su Pei was afraid of him.
He whispered, "Can I go up and sit down?"
Su Pei hesitated for a second and said, "No. It's very late today. If you have anything to do, just say it here. After that, you should go back early."
He did not want He Yiming to go upstairs. First, because he didn't know what He Yiming meant by suddenly running, and second, the house was in a mess and he didn't clean it up. He didn't want He Yiming to see and criticize him.
He Yiming said: "Then let's go to the pavilion and talk."
They sat down in the gazebo.
The last time we parted was summer, two months had passed. Su Pei thought he had adjusted, but when he saw He Yiming again today, he realized that he had not let go at all. Now he can still clearly remember He Yiming's expression and the tone of his speech.
But today's He Yiming was exceptionally silent.
Su Pei had a vague feeling that He Yiming was here to apologize. But if He Yiming said something like "You're going to block me for this trivial matter?" or "It's time for you to calm down for so long", he would definitely put the cake on He Yiming's face.
"What's the matter here?" Su Pei asked.
He Yiming said: "I know you blocked me, you should be angry. I went too far that day."
Su Pei said, "You didn't express too much. You humiliated me."
He Yiming pursed his lips, and after a while, he said, "I'm sorry."
Su Pei shook his head, he couldn't forgive He Yiming so easily, but since he had already met, he spoke. He is willing to talk to He Yiming again.
"Just be careful of me. I can't tell you right now without any grudges, it's okay, this thing has passed, and it didn't happen."
He Yiming said: "It's not being careful. I can't pretend it didn't happen. But you blocked me, and I can only tell you face-to-face about some things."
"what?"
"Have you seen the clarification of the matter between me and Qiu Ruoyang on the Internet? I have nothing to do with him. This matter should have been concocted by Zhang Meng." He Yiming said.
Su Pei said, "I saw it."
Now he can also say this to He Yiming: "But in fact, even if you have something to do with Qiu Ruoyang, it's none of my business? If you want to communicate with him, you don't need to care about what you say on the Internet."
He Yiming looked pale. For the first time, he felt that Su Pei was so cold to him.
This is because he hurt Su Pei's self-esteem, but he thinks it's also partly because Su Pei knows that he is gay. He deserves it.
"I didn't want to be with him," he said.
Su Pei said: "You don't need to explain to me. After all... You always have to have a relationship and have a boyfriend. Whether it's Qiu Ruoyang or not, it makes no difference to me."
"No," He Yiming said, "I won't have a boyfriend."
Su Pei said, "What do you mean? I thought you were... "
He thought He Yiming was gay.
He Yiming said: "Why do you think I'm gay? I'm not."
Su Pei couldn't help touching his face. He didn't expect to have such a ridiculous conversation with He Yiming.
He hesitated, "That's bi, bisexual?"
He Yiming said: "Yes, I'm definitely not a pure homosexual. Just because a few people have caught my attention doesn't mean I'm gay."
Su Pei was silent, he wanted to ask, did that other person refer to him
But he didn't say that he had never seen He Yiming try so hard to deny one of his own qualities, it was unnatural.
Su Pei stood up: "I see. You have nothing to do with Qiu Ruoyang, and you don't want to fall in love with a man."
He ignored the sense of disobedience in He Yiming's words, and summed up what He Yiming said today in one sentence.
He Yiming didn't deny Su Pei's conclusion, he just handed him a packaging bag: "Su Pei, happy birthday."
It was a chocolate that Su Pei liked to eat.
Su Pei took the bag, and He Yiming finally smiled.
