"Hmm? What's up?" He Yan looked a bit puzzled. What could make this guy so happy? He was already lying in the hospital bed. Could it be that he was pretending to be stupid?
Lin Xian clearly saw the look of disgust in He Yan's eyes, but his inner excitement wouldn't let him hold back his words. His tone was still full of sweetness.
"I... I'm about to fall in love."
"What?!" He Yan was completely shocked.
"Lin Xian, don't tell me you really have something going on with that Shen Manmei? Her reputation in the circle is..."
Lin Xian didn't expect this girl to think of that. How could he possibly like a woman like Shen Manmei? If it weren't for the fact that this script was adapted from an IP he had liked for a long time, he definitely wouldn't have cooperated with her. That woman not only had a bad attitude towards filming but also produced poor - quality work.
"It's not her."
"Then who? President Yu?"
He Yan's tone became more and more anxious. "Lin Xian, bro, I'm begging you. Don't talk nonsense. President Yu is engaged. Although I know you two have a good relationship and she has always taken you under her wing, how could you have such improper thoughts?"
Lin Xian was speechless after hearing this. What was this girl's brain made of? How could she be so weird...
To even think of Yu Nian. It was really something only she could come up with.
"It's not Sister Nian."
He Yan let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, otherwise it would really be a doomed love.
Just as she was calming down, she heard Lin Xian's next words that he just couldn't hold back.
"Don't guess. It's a boy."
Holy crap?!
A boy!
It was actually a boy!
The fact that Lin Xian liked boys was simply earth - shattering news. He was actually gay. This...
It was really hard to believe.
"Listen to me." Lin Xian knew that He Yan definitely wouldn't be able to accept this for a while, but he had to tell her these things. Because once he and Ye Erlan were really together, it wouldn't be that simple.
He was a public figure, and so was Ye Erlan.
Even if he didn't care, he was worried that it might affect Ye Erlan. After all, homosexuality was still not fully accepted in the country.
"I've known him for many years. At that time, I was still a student. Later, due to my own reasons, we wasted a lot of years.
Fortunately, he's back now, so we...
He Yan, you've been with me for many years. You know what kind of person I am. I've made up my mind about this. Don't try to persuade me.
If you really consider me your friend, just sincerely bless me."
He Yan was still in a daze from his words. They had known each other for many years, and that person had just recently returned. So... had Lin Xian been doing all this right under her nose?
She had not noticed a thing.
No, Lin Xian had indeed been acting very strangely recently. Whenever he had free time, he would play with his phone and wear a silly smile on his face. She had thought he was watching some funny videos or jokes. It turned out to be like this. It was clearly the look of a lovesick person.
Sure enough, Lin Xian was too deep - rooted in his ways. She simply couldn't see through him.
That Weibo post last time should also be because of this.
No wonder he suddenly asked for leave from the crew and didn't let her follow. He had actually gone on a date.
And the date was with a man.
However... why was she suddenly so excited?
No, no. As much as she was a fan of BL, she still had to act seriously now.
"Ahem, who is that person? Have I met him? Is he in the circle? How old is he? What about other details?"
Lin Xian couldn't help but smile when he heard this. In fact, he could see all the emotions in He Yan's eyes clearly. He knew in his heart that this girl was probably already thinking about how to ship their CP.
"You've met him. Just now."
Just now?
Could it be the man in the ward just now, the one who left as soon as he saw her?
He was so handsome. Not in the same way as Lin Xian, who was handsome at first sight, but he had a unique air about him, noble and lazy.
Even the dark circles under his eyes and his messy hair didn't take away from his charm.
But he seemed to be a new face. He should not be in the circle.
"What does he do?"
"He's a designer."
A designer...
Someone who had been in contact with Lin Xian recently and was a designer.
Could it be the legendary genius designer, God L?
No wonder, no wonder the first piece of clothing that God L designed after coming back was for Lin Xian at the film festival opening.
And Lin Xian had even attended the opening ceremony of the EL physical store. Even last night, for that fashion show and exhibition, Lin Xian had rushed there right after returning to the imperial capital and specifically told her not to follow.
But to be honest, God L was really handsome.
It was just strange why he always wore a mask when participating in competitions and even in daily life. With such a good - looking face, he could attract so many fans.
"Yes, it's L." Lin Xian knew that this girl would definitely think of it right away, so he didn't try to hide anything.
"The next time you have a chance to meet him, I'll ask him to make a dress for you. I'm sure you'll like it." Actually, Lin Xian felt a bit心虚 when saying this. After all, he had only worn EL clothes twice. The first time, he didn't know the clothes would end up on him, and the second time, he had only worn them in an emergency.
But He Yan was extremely happy when she heard this. After all, even though the price of EL was now more affordable, it was still beyond her means. And Lin Xian had directly promised to give her a set, designed by God L himself.
"Tell me what you're going to do first." The topic was brought back to the main point.
Lin Xian was silent for a second and then continued, "First, deal with that Shen Manmei situation. She really gets on my nerves."
"I've contacted them, but they didn't answer the phone."
"I know. They wish this thing would make a bigger stir, so we still have to handle it ourselves."
"Are you going to clarify on Weibo?"
"Yeah."
Apart from clarifying, there was no other way at the moment. This was actually the only way. They couldn't just wait for it to ferment and then naturally die down.
He Yan was a bit hesitant. "But your drama with her has just wrapped up. If you refute the rumor at this time, the CP fans will definitely all leave. Not only the crew, but even the company might be dissatisfied."
Lin Xian smiled and motioned for her not to worry. "Don't worry about this. The crew is already unhappy with her for getting into the show with money. As for the company...
Ye Zi... that is L, knows Sister Yu Nian. They have a good relationship. Even if Sister Yu Nian doesn't think about our relationship, she will protect me for L's sake.
You don't have to worry about this.
Moreover, don't you know? Your brother is liked by fans for his strength. All this doesn't matter."
He Yan was a bit surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that the great master would have a good relationship with Yu Nian. This was really amazing.
"Are you going to post on Weibo now? They might come up with another notice to smear you. After all, this thing has been fermenting all night. They might even label you as someone who dares to do it but not admit it."
"Okay, don't worry."
After saying that, Lin Xian took He Yan's phone, logged into his Weibo account, and started writing.
"Alas, your brother went on a fashion show with a certain great master yesterday. The chemistry was so good. It was really great. I didn't notice the online news for a while.
To be honest, the amusement park is really fun.
If you also want to have a sweet love, especially if you want to have me, you can go and check it out. Let me reluctantly be your virtual boyfriend.
As for whether the fans of Miss Shen Manmei can do such a thing, you have to ask her.
Manmei always has sweet love fantasies."
These words didn't seem to directly state the relationship between the two, but they were also hinting that they were both single. Their fans could also go to the amusement park to take pictures. Wasn't this just pretending to be in the same situation?
Anyone with a bit of discernment could tell that Lin Xian was here to refute the rumor.
But in order to save the girl's face, he didn't say it too directly and left some leeway.
The comments below exploded.
"I knew it. How could Brother Lin Xian take a fancy to a woman like Shen Manmei? A 38 - line actress really thinks highly of herself."
"Exactly. Those who try to ride on someone's coattails should just disappear."
"Hehe. Just because they took a similar photo means they're a couple? I'm breathing the same air as my Lin Xian. Does that mean we've merged into one?"
"Come on, don't be so mean. After all, it's all hyped up by marketing accounts."
"Right. Our sweet Manmei is so cute. How could she be the one chasing after someone?"
"Lin Xian is so disgusting. He rode on the coattails for a whole night and now comes to clarify? Who knows if our Manmei was dumped. Disgusting!"
"Pfft. Have some self - respect, ma'am. Can you go and check Shen Manmei's Weibo? It's her who has been being vague and leading the rhythm, okay? Do you really think people would believe just based on the marketing accounts? Are you a primary school student?"
...
Shen Manmei received the news as soon as Lin Xian posted on Weibo. She read the comments scolding her one by one and the rapidly rising topic "Lin Xian Denies the Relationship".
This was simply a direct slap in her face.
It was so infuriating. This wave of hype had been going so well. She had gained one or two million followers on Weibo overnight. She had thought that Lin Xian had been silent all night, probably because he had also defaulted to this thing. Who would have thought that he would wait a few days to clarify? Where could she put her face now?
"I told you from the beginning not to try to scheme against Lin Xian. He's not someone easy to mess with. Look at how this has turned out. How are you going to end this? You should quickly repost Lin Xian's Weibo and clarify."
After saying that, Shen Manmei's agent left, thinking secretly that this stupid woman was definitely going to get her scolded by the leader again.
Seeing the agent leave, Shen Manmei was a bit hysterical, but there was nothing she could do. She could only clench her fists and then repost Lin Xian's Weibo to explain this matter.
