Chapter 965 Subversion
Lu Jingyan chuckled, walked up to Cheng Yunchuan, and said in a low voice: "Don't be so naive, Cheng Yunchuan, is someone like Lin Shanshan qualified to kidnap Jiang Mubai? This is just the beginning. The water in the entertainment industry is much deeper than you think. Take care of yourself." After saying that, he looked at Jiang Mubai meaningfully, turned and left. The sound of the sports car's engine was particularly arrogant in the night.
Cheng Yunchuan was full of doubts. Lu Jingyan's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples. But he didn't show it. He just tightened Jiang Mubai's hand and said softly, "Let's go home."
After returning home, Jiang Mubai's mood was still unstable. The nightmare-like experience made her exhausted. Cheng Yunchuan held her tightly in his arms, and his warm breath sprayed on her neck, like a protective spell. "Don't be afraid, I'm here." He repeated it over and over again until Jiang Mubai fell asleep in his arms.
The next day, overwhelming news swept in, "The popular young actress Jiang Mubai was kidnapped, and a mysterious man sacrificed himself to save her", "Jiang Mubai's love affair was exposed, and her boyfriend turned out to be...", all kinds of speculations and rumors spread like a virus.
Cheng Yunchuan knew it was time. He held a press conference, and flashes of light poured down like a rainstorm, illuminating his angular face. He took a deep breath, held Jiang Mubai's hand, interlocked his fingers, and looked at the camera with a firm gaze.
"Hello everyone, I am Cheng Yunchuan." The brief opening remarks were like a bomb that set off the whole audience. There was an uproar in the audience, and the reporters pressed the shutter buttons frantically, wishing to record every expression of Cheng Yunchuan.
He ignored everyone's shock and continued, "I held this press conference today to clarify some things, and also to confess my love to someone." He looked at Jiang Mubai affectionately, his eyes full of tenderness, "Mubai, I love you. It started a long time ago."
Jiang Mubai's eyes were moist. She didn't expect Cheng Yunchuan to choose to make their relationship public at this time. How much courage and responsibility does this require? She held his hand back and nodded vigorously, silently responding to his love.
After the press conference, Cheng Yunchuan's Weibo followers skyrocketed, but he was also flooded with abuse and attacks. Some questioned his hype, some cursed them to break up, and some dug up his past "black material" in an attempt to drive him into the abyss.
Cheng Yunchuan calmly turned off his phone and hugged Jiang Mubai in his arms, "Don't look at those comments, I'm here." He kissed her forehead gently, his tone gentle but firm, "I will protect you."
However, things were not as simple as Cheng Yunchuan imagined. The next day, an anonymous email was sent to the mailboxes of major media outlets. The content of the email was an intimate photo of Cheng Yunchuan with a woman many years ago, as well as a DNA test report proving that he had an illegitimate child.
Cheng Yunchuan looked at the photo in the email and his face turned pale instantly. The woman in the photo was his girlfriend in college, and the child...
The woman in the photo, Liu Yiyi, his college sweetheart, was pure and sweet, with two shallow dimples when she smiled. Cheng Yunchuan's fingers gently stroked the woman's face in the photo, and the floodgates of his memory opened instantly, with countless sweet and bitter memories emerging. That child... he had never seen him before, but at this moment, like a sharp thorn, it pierced his heart fiercely.
He raised his head suddenly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. Someone was definitely framing him on purpose! Choosing to break such news at this time clearly meant that they wanted to completely destroy him and Jiang Mubai.
He immediately contacted a lawyer and calmly ordered, "Deal with it immediately, control public opinion, collect evidence, I'm going to sue them for defamation!"
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yunchuan took a deep breath and turned to look at Jiang Mubai, who was curled up on the sofa. She was pale, her eyes were empty, and the glaring news headlines were flashing on the screen of her mobile phone.
Cheng Yunchuan walked over to her and gently held her in his arms. "Mu Bai, do you believe me?" His voice was low and hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor.
Jiang Mubai raised her head, tears blurred her vision, but she could still clearly see the sincerity and pain in Cheng Yunchuan's eyes. "I believe you, Yunchuan." Her voice was soft, but very firm.
A warm current surged in Cheng Yunchuan's heart, and he hugged Jiang Mubai tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood. "I'm sorry, I should have told you earlier." He took a deep breath and slowly told about the relationship in college and the illegitimate child.
"I didn't know she was pregnant. Later, she disappeared with the child. I searched for a long time but couldn't find them." Cheng Yunchuan's voice was full of helplessness and self-blame. "This incident made me realize that she might have deliberately chosen to show up at this time for the purpose of..."
"To break us up." Jiang Mubai took over his words, her tone so calm that it made people feel distressed. She raised her head and looked at Cheng Yunchuan, with no resentment in her eyes, only heartache and understanding. "Yunchuan, let's face it together, okay?"
Cheng Yunchuan's eyes were moist. He lowered his head and kissed away the tears on Jiang Mubai's face. "Thank you, Mubai."
In the following days, Cheng Yunchuan reduced his public appearances and focused on investigating the illegitimate child incident and the mastermind behind it. He asked his good friend Lu Jingyan to investigate secretly and collect evidence.
"This woman is really good at hiding things," Lu Jingyan threw a piece of information in front of Cheng Yunchuan, "Liu Yiyi, now changed her name to Lin Shan, has been living abroad and just returned to China recently. Moreover, she seems to have a close relationship with..." Lu Jingyan paused, his eyes became complicated, "and your agent."
Cheng Yunchuan frowned, and a bad feeling came over him. His agent, Wang Kai, was his long-time friend and partner. He had always trusted him, but he never expected...
"Also," Lu Jingyan continued, "I found out that after Lin Shan returned to China, she had close contact with someone. This person is..." He took out another photo. There was a man in the photo. He was wearing sunglasses and his face could not be seen clearly, but his figure made Cheng Yunchuan feel extremely familiar.
"Who is it?" Cheng Yunchuan's voice was a little hurried.
Lu Jingyan shook his head. "The photo is too blurry, so I can't confirm his identity for now. But I'm sure this person is closely related to Lin Shan and your 'illegitimate child' incident."
Cheng Yunchuan's heart sank. He knew that behind all this, there was a huge conspiracy, and he was walking towards the center of this conspiracy step by step. He looked at the blurry figure in the photo, and a strong sense of uneasiness, like a poisonous snake, tightly wrapped around his heart. He had a premonition that the appearance of this person would completely overturn his life...
