âThen shall we go and meet the grandparents?â Gu Jinmianâs voice sounded from behind.
With a gloomy breath of hell.
Bai Xinyu immediately fell silent and stood up straight.
âHmph!â Gu Jinmian said, âWhat am I nervous for? So nervous about going to the Yin family?â
âWhat seeing the in-laws, Iâll simply wreak havoc in the Heavenly Palace!â (TL: referring to himself as Sun Wukong (Monkey King) that wreaked havoc when he went to the Heavenly Palace. Based on the story Journey to the West)
Bai Xinyu immediately said, âYes! Wanting to be homeâs in-laws, they must be thinking beautifully! Although itâs true, and almost everyone in the circle knows it.â
Gu Jinmian: ââ¦â¦â
Really, he just has to open his mouth.
Although what he said was true.
The âlove affairâ between him and Yin Moshu had been made public since in Director Linâs crew. Not only was it made public, but it was also shown to the crew from time to time to make them believe it.
Some time ago, he suddenly discovered that the production director of âOn the Snowâ had a different flavor to him. The people in the crew were a little strange, and the director also intentionally gave him and Yin Moshu some space to be alone.
Until he found out that the director was promoting oneâs private interests under the guise of serving the public, often filming tidbits of him and Yin Moshu.
Under his coercion, Director Liu finally confessed.
After he added Liu Mengmengâs WeChat account, he made a terrible deal with Liu Mengmeng. While Liu Mengmeng changed the script for him, he helped Liu Mengmeng like and support the CP by frequently taking photos of his interaction with Yin Moshu. Liu Mengmeng also reprocessed and shared it with Shi Yi and other friends.
Gu Jinmian: â?â
Director Liu probably realized how dishonest he was doing this, thus he was ashamed and covertly told him more.
âDo you know the place they gather to like and support the CP?â
âWhere?â
Director Liu logged into his own Weibo account, and found a pitiful CP Super Topic which he was following, who only had more than a hundred followers, [Gu Jinmianshu].
Gu Jinmianâs first reaction was, âMy name was all wrongly typed!â (TL: ä» âjinâ above meant âonlyâ, while é¦ âjinâ in Gu Jinmianâs name is âbrocadeâ or âbright and beautifulâ. Thus if translated Gu Jinmianshu, it would be â Gu âonly sleep specialâ or Gu âonly specialty is sleepingâ, or it could be Gu âonly sleepâ Shu â since æ® âshuâ is the same character in Yin Moshu)
Director Liu smiled ambiguously and meaningfully, Gu Jinmian understood it slowly as well.
ââ¦..â
âSleepâ is a verb.
Damn.
âI heard it was named by President Shi.â
ââ¦â¦â
Thinking about it now, Gu Jinmian felt very ashamed.
Not surprisingly, Director Liuâs crew also knew about his relationship with Yin Moshu.
The crew was in B City. After Shi Yi and Yin Moshuâs video, those people in B City would definitely be confused, and a slight investigation should be enough to tell them.
He was not nervous about going to the Yin family.
He just felt that, on the premise that the Yin family knew about their relationship, it was a bit awkward to go.
Heâs a twisted ghost ah!
Gu Jinmian casually took out a set of clothes and threw it to the butler.
It is the Yin family who wants to apologize to themselves!
They are the ones who should be awkward, he should be the one thatâs aloof!
****
Gu Jinmian stood in front of the gate of the Yin family with a paralyzed face, not taking a step forward for a long time.
The big families in B City paid great attention to appearance. The Yin familyâs gate could allow four cars to enter and exit at the same time. The gate was a heavy, rustic red brown wooden door with jade-carved door handles and gold-painted patterns.
There were two guards specialized in opening and closing the door. When they saw them, they bent down.
If he hadnât known that his family had the tallest building in the CBD center of S City, he would have suspected that his family was much worse than the Yinâs.
After not seeing him move for a long time, Yin Moshu glanced sideways at him, and saw that his face was much duller than usual.
Yin Moshu thought for a while, âIf you donât want to see them, we can just walk around casually.â
âWho said I donât want to?â Gu Jinmian paused for a moment, and said with a straight face, âHowever, itâs okay to walk first, I just want to see the place where you live.â
Yin Moshu smiled without saying a word, he led Gu Jinmian in and walked into a small forest.
This place was quite similar to the Gu family. After entering the first door, there was a small forest that isolated the noise and sight outside.
There was a small path in the small forest, the distance was not that long, and a temporary resting bench could be seen. Gu Jinmian walked there, stopped, and then sat down.
Yin Moshu looked at him in confusion.
Gu Jinmian with a paralyzed face: âTired.â
Yin Moshu raised his eyebrows and without saying anything, sat down beside him.
There was no one else in the small forest, not even a bird chirping. Occasionally, a gust of breeze blew, and the rustling of the leaves was not only not noisy, but also highlighted the tranquility.
The two of them just sat here quietly, regardless of the people at the banquet or the messages on their mobile phones.
Yin Moshu had a strange feeling.
He thought of when he was young, when he was sitting in the park with little Gu Jinmian.
At that time, the little boy was like a child without a home.
In first grade, most of the children were five or six years old. Almost every child had a parent to pick them up, but he didnât. If he wouldnât go home, he would go to the small park to find him.
And he was the same, had just entered junior high school, and rather than escaping from the Yin family, it was better to say that he was kicked out.
The two of them, who were left alone, often sat on the bench in the small park by chance after a fight.
Now, he took Gu Jinmian back to the Yin family and sat on the bench in the Yin familyâs small forest.
It seems like being brought home by Gu Jinmian.
Yin Moshu closed his eyes.
He canât think like that.
This is not that Gu Jinmian.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that although Gu Jinmian was sitting quietly, his eyes were not idle, moving from tree to tree, not knowing what he was looking for.
Yin Moshuâs eyes moved slightly, âWhat are you looking for?â
âAh?â Gu Jinmian didnât know what to say.
He stayed for a while, then said, âYin Moshu, I also had a similar dream last night, dreaming that we were living inside a book.â
Yin Moshu: ââ¦â¦.â
Gu Jinmian said solemnly, âIn the book, the Yin family has a group of villains. They bullied you when you were a child and tied you to a tree.â
âIâm confirming the reality of my dream, to see if there is really such a tree.â
After speaking, Gu Jinmian glanced at Yin Moshu with a little guilt.
âWow!â Yin Moshu smiled and said, âWhat a coincidence!â
Gu Jinmian: ââ¦â¦â
When he first came to the film crew, isnât this what Yin Moshu said when at the Qiuyang High School?
âWe all had dreams like this. I donât know if my dream is real, but yours is quite real.â Yin Moshu turned and pointed to the third tree in front of the bench and said, âItâs that tree.â
****
The Yin family waited for a long time for Yin Moshu and Gu Jinmian to come. They called the guard and found out that they never came out after entering the small forest.
ââ¦â¦â
Being in the small forest for so long and not coming out, what are you both doing?
Everyone had different expressions, while the juniors were talking a lot, and some had ambiguous smiles on their faces.
The serious and rigid old man of the Yin familyâs face became increasingly ugly, and he stabbed his cane to the ground, âHurry up and call them over!â
Yin Shunli immediately said, âDad, Iâll take Chengzhi to call them.â
At first, he was anxious to apologize, but after half a month, there was still no movement from the Gu family. Obviously they didnât care about the matter that happened previouslyâso why is he still energetic?
The rest of the Yin family couldnât help but speculate.
The few brothers and sisters were not on good terms with each other, and they calculated and suspected each other because of the family property. Seeing this, someone immediately said, âIâll go and have a look too.â
âGo and take a look with your fourth uncle!â
Yin Shunli frowned, and took them to the small forest to find the two of them.
None of their speculations about the small forest did not occur.
Yin Moshu was sitting on a bench looking at Gu Jinmian, while Gu Jinmian was standing in front of a tree, reaching out and gently touching the trunk.
When they walked over, Gu Jinmian blinked, and a tear slipped down quietly.
âWhen I think of my boyfriend being tied up and bullied here when he was a child, I feel so uncomfortable that Iâm about to die.â
Yin Moshu: ââ¦..â
Other people:ââ¦â¦â
The atmosphere remained silent for about ten seconds.
Although the Yin family had already guessed the relationship between Gu Jinmian and Yin Moshu, inviting friends over meant showing off and to probe.
But they didnât expect Gu Jinmian to say it so simply.
They didnât even expect it to be this way.
Rumor had it that Gu Jinmian was a gloomy and crazy person, the kind that tortured starlets to death. When they first found out that Yin Moshu and Gu Jinmian were together, some of them smiled secretly, showing sympathy for Yin Moshu.
How come heâs different when arriving at their house?
First, he was kicked twice by Yin Chengzhi, and then he was seriously injured like that.
But now in their house, he became Daiyu weeping at a tree. (TL: Cao Xueqinâs âDream of Red
Mansionsâ. Daiyu is a character of the story confessing her love to Baoyu, and âDaiyu weeping at a treeâ verse could be found there. (Donât know why the author use this))
Yin Shunli âhahaâ and smiled, âWhatâs the matter!â
Gu Jinmian hiccupped.
Yin Shunli: ââ¦â¦â
âThat, letâs go in first, there are many people waiting.â Yin Shunli said with a stiff smile.
Gu Jinmian blinked and shed another tear.
Yin Shunli: ââ¦..â
The others waited for a long time but they didnât come. After a while, Yin Shunchang, Yin Moshuâs adoptive father, received a call from Yin Shunli, âBrother, come quickly, I really canât help it!â
Yin Shunchang: ââ¦â¦â
He took a few more people there, saw Gu Jinmianâs tears, then fell silent for a while.
âWho told you that?â Yin Shunchang glanced at Yin Moshu, âIt was just children playing around when they were young.â
Gu Jinmian sniffled.
At this moment, Gu Lifan called Gu Jinmian, Gu Jinmian weeped then said, âSecond brother is calling.â
Several people suddenly tensed up.
If Gu Lifan heard Gu Jinmian crying, and is still at their houseâ¦
Yin Shunchang immediately asked Yin Chengzhi, âDid you do it? Who else did it?â
Yin Shunli immediately reacted, and slapped Yin Chengzhi on the head, âYes, who else? Why donât you go together to apologize to Yin Moshu!â
Yin Chengzhi: ââ¦â¦.â
Gu Jinmian made a gesture of answering the phone, Yin Shunli then kicked Yin Chengzhi hard, and Yin Chengzhi immediately walked up to Yin Moshu, âIâm sorry, I was too naughty when I was young!â
After he finished speaking, seeing Gu Jinmian looking at him, his skin tightened instantly, and his ribs began to ache again, âThere is also Yin Chenglin, Yin Zizhe, Yin Lanxinâ¦â
The people who were named by him scolded him severely in their hearts, and under the persuasive gaze of Yin Shunchang and Yin Shunli, they walked stiffly in front of Yin Moshu, âIâm sorry!â
âI was ignorant when I was young, donât mind it cousin.â
âI didnât know the importance at that time, brother, donât take it to heart.â
âWhen I was young, I just played with everyone, and I didnât have a sense of right and wrong.â
They all said that when they were young, people could be very simple and kind, and they could also be very simple and cruel.
Perhaps for them, when they were young, tying up Yin Moshu to pull the corners of his mouth, spraying him with pepper water, and experimenting with various methods to âteachâ Yin Moshu to cry , was the same as pressing a grasshopper on a stone to perform surgery on it.
When growing up, they could just apologize with the excuse of âwhen I was youngâ.
But they never thought that, at that time, the person they were apologizing to was also a child, even much younger than most of them.
They didnât know what kind of harm it brought to such a small child.
Gu Jinmian answered the phone, âHello, second brother, I was crying just now, so I didnât answer the phone.â
ââ¦â¦â
Yin Chengzhi wanted to curse.
He knew that this little devil was not that simple!
Why didnât he learn his lesson last time!
âItâs nothing, I just came to the Yin family with Yin Moshu today.â
âAh, no, I was not wronged, I just felt unhappy and wanted to cry.â
ââ¦â¦.â
When several people returned to the banquet together, there was a layer of dark clouds hanging over their heads.
Only Gu Jinmian hugged Yin Moshuâs arm intimately behind.
âYin Moshu, did I perform well this time? Did I work hard?â Gu Jinmian asked him in a low voice.
Yin Moshu gave a âMnâ.
âBefore, you acted better than me, compared to me working hard. How was this done, all in all, itâs you who has helped me.â Gu Jinmian said, âTherefore, I went back and studied hard.â
âHow did you learn it?â
Gu Jinmian said, âI learned from Hang Yuantingâs variety shows when he was young.â
ââ¦â¦.â Yin Moshu was silent for two seconds, âThe learning ability is very strong.â
âHehe.â
Since Yin Chengzhi kicked him twice last time and was injured like that, he simply set himself up as a delicate young master character here in the Yin family, but if he wants to help Yin Moshu bully them back, he canât just be delicate. Then on this basis, just pour a cup of green tea and raise a white lotus. (TL: I think he meant to act like a âgreen tea b****â and a âwhite lotus personâ)
âHowever, I donât believe your acting skills are that good.â Yin Moshu said.
Hm?
Gu Jinmian looked up at him.
Yin Moshu stared at his reddish eyes at the moment, âWere you simply acting just now? Tears came as soon as you said those words?â
When Gu Jinmian blinked and a tear fell, he was as shocked as other Yin family members.
He seemed to be able to feel the weight and heat of that tear, dripping on his heart.
Gu Jinmian opened his mouth.
It was really difficult for him to cry, it was difficult for him to shed tears easily with red eyes, but when he looked at the tree and thought of how helpless Yin Moshu was tied to it, tears fell easily.
Yin Moshu placed his fingers under his eyes and lightly slid across them.
The skin under the eyes was thin and delicate, but Yin Moshuâs fingertips were not as pampered as the back of his hand, it had a rough texture, and when scratched, it brought out a tingling feeling.
He slightly lowered his head and approached, his eyes were deep and focused, reflecting him who was getting bigger and bigger.
For a moment, Gu Jinmian thought that Yin Moshu was going to kiss the end of his eyes.
His heart almost reached his throat.
Yin Moshu wiped away the tears at the end of his eyes and raised his head.
âDonât cry anymore.â
Gu Jinmian nodded with a dull expression.
They continued to move forward, when Yin Moshu suddenly heard a âpaâ sound, as if someone had slapped their forehead.
He turned his head, and saw Gu Jinmian walking forward expressionlessly.
And a lock of hair on the top of the head was a bit flat.
Yin Moshu: ââ¦â
They walked slowly into the living room.
In the real world, Gu Jinmian viewed himself as the son of a wealthy man.
Their family was fortunate enough to have a large amount of money. When his father realized that he didnât have the talent for business, afterwards, he hired a professional manager with a high salary to manage their familyâs business. The business got better and better, and his father could as well be called as the chairman of the board.
Gu Jinmian still regarded himself as the son of a nouveau riche, but it had nothing to do with such a wealthy family.
After transmigrating into Gu Jinmian in the book, this feeling became even stronger.
This wealthy family could hold a banquet to socialize even the moment they got inside.
And he was simply like a fish in water at the banquet.
Whether it would be the Yin family or friends of the Yin family, he could respond with a paralyzed face and a gradually flexible smile, and never forgetting to set up such a character.
âYoung Master Gu, are you and Yin Moshuâ¦in love?â
The guest was very unsure when he asked, he paused before saying that he was in love, as if doubting.
Gu Jinmian could easily see through his thoughts.
Judging from his reputation outside, he must have thought that he was supporting Yin Moshu, and even thought that he might be just playing around.
How could Gu Jinmian make Yin Moshu feel so wronged?
He hugged Yin Moshuâs arm, smiled shyly, and buried his head on Yin Moshuâs shoulder.
ââ¦â¦â
Must be in love, only love can make people go crazy and change their temperament.
âYoung Master Gu, you must be very happy to be in love with Yin Moshu. Yin Moshu could only smile when he was a child, but now he smiles most of the time, he also doesnât seem to have any other emotions.â Yuan Manli said with a strange tone.
Hm?
His fist is a little hard.
But he is a delicate and sensitive young master at the moment.
Gu Jinmian raised his head, his eyes were particularly bright, âYou donât know, I was attracted by his smile.â
He let go of Yin Moshuâs arm, as if he wanted to have a good talk with them.
âYou should have heard that I actually have facial paralysis. I canât smile all the time. The moment I saw his smile, my world brightened up. Itâs something I canât have and itâs so beautiful on him.â
âYou may not understand that feeling.â
âWhen I knew that he often smiles, I liked him even more.â
âBeing with him, I was able to smile. He is my salvation and my destiny.â He showed a bright smile.
âSay, how can there be such complementary people in the world, however, we are really a match made in heaven.â
Yin Moshu also smiled.
Seeing their happy smiles, everyone really felt that they were a match made in heaven, and they really believed that Yin Moshu was Gu Jinmianâs destiny.
âYou two are together, here at homeâ¦â
âDidnât you see how much my mother likes him? My brother is the same. Last time, the support in the Guâs building was prepared by my second brother. My second brother also wanted to give him Guâs endorsement, but he refused.â
There was nothing more to say.
Unable to accept that Yin Moshu was living such a good life, he struggled to death, âI feel that my cousin is a bit cold and domineering now.â
âExactly, Iâm an indecisive person, and I need someone who can make decisions for me.â Gu Jinmian smiled so much that his eyes curled up, âActually, this is how we get along now, I listen to him in everything.â
ââ¦â¦â
No one was able to say anything anymore.
The whole living room fell into a suppressed silence.
Only the two people in the center smiled happily. When they looked at each other, only each otherâs eyes were full of happiness.
Yin Chengzhi was so angry that he couldnât sit still in front of them, therefore he stood up abruptly.
Yin Moshu looked at him, his tender eyes instantly turned cold and terrifying, as if he wanted to make him disappear in this world.
Yin Chengzhi shuddered, and walked lightly to the other side.
The two children brought home by Yin Shunli, Yuan Manli, and Yin Shunchang were all here.
âAuntie, what should we do? Yin Moshu now has the entire Gu family as his backer.â Yin Chengzhi anxiously said, âHe hates me, and now heâs not concealing it. Will he use the Gu family to retaliate against us, retaliate against the entire Yin family? â
He spoke very quietly, âAfter all, our Yin family really treats him a little bit poorly.â
His voice was very low, but the Yin family around could still hear him.
They frowned.
âWhy are you so anxious? Shi Yi and Gu Lifan like him because Gu Jinmian likes him.â Yuan Manli said, âWhat if Gu Jinmian doesnât like him anymore?â
Everyone around looked at her.
And she was looking at Yin Moshu.
Yin Moshu was also looking at her, and then smiled at her.
Yuan Manli hated Yin Moshuâs smile almost physiologically.
She admitted that long before she told Yin Shunchang that she didnât want Yin Moshu, she began to reject Yin Moshu.
The earliest time she saw Yin Moshu smiling was not when she cut her hand.
But when Yin Moshu was five years old. He was pushed down the back hill by Yin Chengzhi that time, he rolled down a part of the hill and fell down again. His body was seriously injured, especially on his calf, and a large piece of flesh was gone.
When she rushed to hug him, she accidentally pressed her hand there, and he twitched in pain, but giggled.
At that time, when she saw the smile on his face, goosebumps came up all over her body.
Shocked, he let go and threw him to the ground.
She watched him tumble on the ground in pain, and his mouth burst into a smile, it was as if she was looking at a demon.
She had prejudice against Yin Moshuâis Yin Moshu really normal?
âWe all know that Yin Moshu is abnormal, itâs not just that he can only smile.â Yuan Manli twitched her lips, âIf Gu Jinmian knew, would he still like him?â
Yin Chengzhiâs eyes lit up, âI see, Iâm going to prepare it right away, and let the precious Young Master Gu see how terrifying Yin Moshu is.â
Yuan Manli smiled at Yin Moshu, the lines on her cheeks became more obvious, making her look a bit gloomy and terrifying.
Do you really think youâve found true love?
Youâll soon know that what I told you is true, that no one in this world will really love you.
