8. Campus Scandal~

Qin Ye’s words made Xie He’s head feel like it had exploded. He had never thought of this....

He had always thought that Zhou Yuebin had done this behind Han Wenqian’s back. Because Xie He had no proof, it was reasonable for Han Wenqian not to believe him. He had never thought of the possibility that Han Wenqian actually knew about this, and that it had all been orchestrated by him.

This was his older brother—the brother who had loved and protected him for sixteen years. He’d always been gentle and reliable...if he knew the truth, how could he treat him like this? How could he bear to humiliate and hurt him like this?

He would have protected him and taken revenge for him.

He didn’t believe that it had been Han Wenqian who had ordered Zhou Yuebin to hurt him!

Xie He faltered and shouted with red eyes, “Don’t slander my brother. He would never do such a thing! He’s not that kind of person!”

Qin Ye sighed. “You don’t doubt him even a little bit?”

Xie He clenched his fists. “I trust him.”

Unfortunately, Qin Ye didn’t intend to let Xie He continue to deceive himself. He chuckled and said, “Zhou Yuebin has always been Han Wenqian’s follower. He obeys his every command. The Zhou Family relies on the Han Family for a lot of things. He didn’t even dare to meet with you for many years, content with staying within his lot. If it wasn’t for Han Wenqian’s approval, how would he dare to risk offending the Han Family by framing you like this? Have you really never thought of this?”

Qin Ye’s words made Xie He’s face pale even more. He couldn’t refute his words. But there were some things...that were not necessarily true just because they made sense. Before believing him, he had to figure out...

...Why did Han Wenqian want to do this to him?

There was no reason.... This was the brother he loved the most, and who had always loved him. Why would he use such cruel means against him?

Xie He stared at Qin Ye, voice cold. “What about you? Who are you? Why did you approach me?”

He wasn’t stupid. For a stranger who knew of his situation to approach him obviously meant that this stranger had an ulterior motive. Yesterday was likely no coincidence.

Qin Ye looked at Xie He with a pitying gaze. He said, “I didn’t plan on telling you these things. It was just that, after meeting you and finding out that Han Wenqian was actually treating you like this, I couldn’t bear it.... We can team up. After all, we have a shared enemy.”

“Enemy?” Xie He looked at Xie He vigilantly. “You want to take down my brother?”

Qin Ye didn’t dodge the question. He smiled and nodded. “Yes.”

Xie He’s expression changed at once. He immediately stood up. “I will never help you!”

Qin Ye spoke at an even pace, neither too fast nor too slow. “There’s no rush to make your decision. Don’t you think you’re acting a little too stupid, wholeheartedly thinking about his welfare while he treats you like this?”

Xie He pursed his lips. “Since you’re his enemy, of course you won’t say anything good about him. I don’t believe you!”

He had no reason to distrust his family and trust this stranger who had an ulterior motive instead! Even if Han Wenqian didn’t treat him well now, in his heart, he was still the older brother who had cherished him for sixteen years! He was the closest person to him!

The Han Family had let him grow up with no worries.... How could he use animosity to pay back their kindness?

Qin Ye sized up Xie He’s vigilant, cautious appearance and chuckled. He spread his hands out. “I was telling the truth.... If you don’t believe me, why don’t you go ask Han Wenqian. See what he says.”

After saying this, he left.

Xie He watched Qin Ye leave. He then left with a dispirited expression on his face.

?Xie He?Xiao Qin is a competent and good helper gong, ah. Even though the timeline’s been messed up, he still unflinchingly walks down the path of trying to ruin the Han Family from the inside. I really admire this kind of cautious, conscientious and unyielding dedication to his work. Smile.JPG ?

?444?......?

?444?Oh, actually, I don’t really get it. _(:???)_?

?Xie He?Baby, it’s actually really easy to understand, ah. Looking at Han Wenqian’s memories of his last life and judging by the way Qin Ye tried to take down the Han Family through any means possible, it’s clear to see that Qin Ye’s been scheming for a long time. Han Wenqian obviously knows this. That’s why he didn’t wait and acted first, before Qin Ye was ready. Furthermore, he made a strong move. As for Lin Xin, according to the memories transferred to me, with what he feels for the Han Family, not even the Lin Xin in this life would ever betray the Han Family, let alone the Lin Xin from the previous life who had never experienced any hurt and had only been given concern and care. There must be another reason for why he had said such things. What is it, only Qin Ye knows. And right now, he’s about to make it happen again.?

?444?( ?o ?) Ah! Then what should we do now??

?Xie He?All I have to do now is follow the original path from the last life in advance and let Han Wenqian see it.?

?444?Why...?_(:???)_?Won’t he blacken even more?

?Xie He?I’ve said it before, whoever starts the trouble should end it. A grudge from someone who was reborn seems difficult to solve because he had been reborn with a heart full of hatred. Furthermore, what hurt him in the first place hasn’t yet happened. This time, even though he’s stopped it, he still thinks that the other is in the wrong. He’ll think that if it wasn’t because he had stopped it, the last life’s events would happen again. That’s to say, regardless of whether Lin Xin betrays him in this life, in Han Wenqian’s eyes, the grudge has already been sowed and cannot be erased.?

?Xie He?Therefore, even if I don’t do anything, Han Wenqian will hate me and think that it isn’t because I’m not willing to betray him, but that I can’t.... He hates the Lin Xin from his last life. The only solution is to let him know that Lin Xin actually hadn’t betrayed him in the last life. That’s why I need Xiao Qin’s cooperation. We need to let Han Wenqian re-evaluate what he thought happened in his last life, to let him see the truth.... With this, he will naturally understand.?

?444?(?o?) Oh!?

?Xie He?It’s about time to make him calm down and let go of his hatred. Only then can he have a new lease on life. ? ?

?444?......?

Xie He stayed at school until the sun set before heading home. This time, it was once again Secretary Song picking him up. He pushed the door open and found that Han Wenqian was already home. It seems like he hadn’t been very busy today.

Xie He stared at Han Wenqian. He didn’t believe Qin Ye’s words. He didn’t believe a word but&#k2026;he didn’t know why but when he looked at Han Wenqian’s cold profile now, Qin Ye’s words constantly echoed in his mind as he recalled the other’s cruel treatment.

What if...he was telling the truth....

Xie He walked over with quiet steps and quietly said, “I’m back.”

Han Wenqian looked up and looked at him with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes. With a cool voice, he said, “You’re still willing to come back.”

A sliver of hurt emerged in Xie He’s eyes.

Han Wenqian took in the dimness within Xie He’s eyes. When he thought of how the other had met with Qin Ye again today, he guessed that the other had already found out that it was him that had ordered Zhou Yuebin to frame him. And yet, this person pretended to be ignorant still.... Han Wenqian pulled Xie He by the wrist, pulling him into his lap. He caressed the other’s ear and said in a low voice, “Hm? You seem really willing to come back. Isn’t it painful and difficult to bear...?”

Han Wenqian stuck his hand into Xie He’s clothes, teasing the young man’s body with his touch. He watched as a red flush of shame appeared on the young man’s face. He then lowered his head and bit down on his soft lips, a raspy voice coming out. “It seems that you really like being treated like this by me. I must make you feel really good. Otherwise, why else would you want to come back?”

Xie He looked upset. He had already endured it all, so why must the other humiliate him with such words? In the end, he couldn’t help but push against Han Wenqian’s chest and say with red eyes, “No, I don’t like it.”

Han Wenqian didn’t get mad. He only laughed in a ridiculing tone. “Do you not like being treated like this, or do you just not like that it’s me? What if it was another man...?”

You didn’t look embarrassed or pained when you were with Qin Ye in bed....

When Han Wenqian remembered this, his eyes turned even darker.

Xie He, however, remembered when he had been pressed down by that group of men. When he recalled Zhou Yuebin’s lecherous gaze, disgust welled in his stomach again. He shouted, “I don’t like it! I don’t like it with anyone! I don’t like men!”

Han Wenqian smiled coldly. He pressed Xie He on the sofa and entered him roughly. His tone was ice-cold. “Oh...but it’s not up to you.”

Tears of pain fell down Xie He’s cheeks. He looked up at the callous man above him. This version of him and the one from Xie He’s memories slowly separated. They became two completely different people. Why...do you have to treat me like this....?

You’re my big brother....

....................................

Xie He stared blankly. He could feel Han Wenqian pull out from inside of him. Two pills were then thrown in front of him, like the other was giving alms to a beggar or like he was paying a hooker.

As long as he had any shred of dignity left, he would not pick it up. But...he didn’t even have that.

Xie He reached out with trembling hands and picked the two pills up. He looked like a drowning man grasping at straws.... But this wouldn’t save him. It would only push him deeper into despair. Because living wasn’t the same as salvation. Sometimes, living only felt like falling into hell.

Qin Ye had said, why don’t you ask Han Wenqian? See what he says.....

Should I ask...?

But he couldn’t utter the words no matter how he tried. If Han Wenqian hadn’t done it, how hurtful would his doubt be for the other? It would be like how Han Wenqian hadn’t believed him in the past. To be suspected by the person you loved the most...at that time, Xie He had been so heart-broken and upset he had wanted to die.

He wanted to believe in Han Wenqian. Truly. He wanted to believe in him this once....

Even if he was being treated like this...he didn’t want to be given such a cruel answer. He was afraid he wouldn’t be able to bear it.

Xie He turned his head and stared at Han Wenqian. His black eyes were watery with tears, like he was struggling with some utterly painful emotions. His lips trembled and out came a feeble, hoarse voice, “Ge....”

Han Wenqian’s expression turned slightly rigid. He lowered his gaze to look at the young man on the ground. The other was currently staring at him with watery eyes full of anticipation....

He suddenly realized that he hadn’t heard Xie He call him Ge for a while now....

Since the day he had told him that he was nothing but a plaything to the Han Family, Xie He never called him this again, as if he had very quickly accepted his fate. He didn’t fuss and just accepted things, as if that was the logical thing to do. He didn’t overstep boundaries. He had completely accepted his new identity. He never called him his big brother again.

Han Wenqian had thought that he didn’t care about this. In any case, he would no longer see the other as his younger brother.... But at this moment, hearing Xie He call him with such a soft voice like this....

The time they had spent together had left deep marks inside of him and at this moment, they began to grow restless. He could not deceive himself. He wanted to hear Xie He call for him like this.

Han Wenqian pursed his lips slightly, a heavy gaze falling onto Xie He. After a few seconds, he said, “What?”

Xie He struggled to get up and walk over to Han Wenqian. The last remnant of his hope filled his eyes as he looked at the other. He said, “Ge...I can trust you, right? You wouldn’t trick me, right?”

Han Wenqian’s heart was racing. He more or less knew why Xie He was asking.

If he wanted to make Xie He suffer, he should tell him that everything had been due to his own machinations. He should mercilessly shatter the rest of his hope! But for some reason, he couldn’t say it. He couldn’t do it.

Why couldn’t he meet with Xie He’s hopeful gaze...?

Han Wenqian clenched his fists and left, slamming the door behind him.

?Ding, the target Han Wenqian’s Favourability Value +5. The current Favourability Value is 75. The current Blackening Value is 80.?

Xie He watched Han Wenqian leave, his eyes turning gray.

That night, Han Wenqian didn’t come back. He left Xie He home alone. He didn’t appear until the next day.

....................................

When Xie He woke up the next day, his whole body ached painfully. However, he still persevered and went to school.

His condition had not improved, and had actually been getting worse. Finally, Xu Guokun couldn’t help himself from calling Xie He over and asking, “What’s going on with you?”

Xie He stared at the ground, ashamed. He couldn’t speak a word.

Xu Guokun sighed and said, “If you’re not feeling well, take some time off and rest. You don’t have to go to the performance next month. Don’t feel too much pressure...there will be opportunities in the future. You can only work if you’re healthy.”

Xie He’s eyes grew unfocused when he heard this. It had finally happened....

He didn’t have the courage to fight for himself because he knew that there was no way he could perform this time. It would only put his teacher in an awkward position if he recklessly begged him.

Xie He didn’t know how he got out of his teacher’s office. His mind was a mess. He wasn’t even in the mood to play piano.

Next time...could he really make it to the next time...?

Distracted, Xie He ended up being pulled by the wrist by someone. Turns out he had nearly been hit by an oncoming bicycle in his moment of inattention. That student apologized to Xie He over and over before leaving.

Xie He turned and saw that it had been Qin Ye who had pulled him back. The other smiled at him and asked, “Did you ask Han Wenqian?”

Xie He gave him a miserable smile. He didn’t ask...but the answer seemed to be yes.... Han Wenqian didn’t reply. He didn’t say that he could trust him.

At this moment, the sorrow, hurt and grievances could no longer be suppressed. Tears streamed down from his eyes.

Qin Ye regarded Xie He, who was absolutely beside himself. Suddenly, he couldn’t bear to see the other like this. He had wanted to use Xie He to take down the Han Family, but this was a pure, innocent youth. He was innocent.... Telling him the truth was too cruel.

A long time later, Xie He let out a raspy voice. “I don’t want to go home. Can I stay with you tonight?”

Qin Ye said, “Sure.”

Qin Ye brought Xie He to the hotel he was living at. Xie He’s body was very weak. He fell asleep. At night, he woke up again and found Qin Ye at his side. He pushed him a bit and said, “Tie me up.”

Qin Ye knew why he was asking this. Therefore, he tied Xie He tightly with the bedsheets.

He didn’t sleep. He watched Xie He struggle in pain when the withdrawal symptoms hit. He had no medication to alleviate the pain, so this time, the episode was much more painful.

When it was over, Xie He felt half dead.

Qin Ye looked like he couldn’t bear to see him like this. He went to grab a towel from the washroom and helped Xie He wiped the tears off his face. He helped him tidy his hair, revealing the young man’s pure face.

Xie He stared at him blankly. A long time later, he seemed to come back to himself. He smiled. “Disgusting, aren’t I?”

Qin Ye gazed into Xie He’s eyes. Even if he’d suffered such cruel betrayal and hurt, even if he’d gone to hell and back, his eyes were still pure and bright. It was like these eyes would never be stained by the filth and repulsiveness of this world.

He could still smile and speak to him.

Qin Ye gave Xie He an earnest look and said, “No.”

?Ding, Qin Ye’s Favourability Value +10. The current Favourability Value is 60.?

Xie He gave him a faint smile and shut his eyes, exhausted. “Thank you for comforting me.”

Qin Ye was silent for a moment before saying, “Don’t you hate him?”

Xie He’s eyelashes fluttered but he didn’t reply.

Qin Ye originally had had a lot to say. He had thought that he could persuade Xie He. But he didn’t say a thing. Xie He already didn’t have it easy, so he should at least let him relax a bit....

As for the Han Family, sooner or later, they will pay the price for the mistakes they’ve made. When he thought of this, Qin Ye’s eyes turned ice-cold.

....................................

After leaving his apartment, Han Wenqian had sat in his office all night.

That night, Xie He’s black eyes filled with sincere hope replayed in his eyes all night. He could still hear Xie He’s quiet voice saying, “Ge, I can trust you, right...?”

Han Wenqian couldn’t help but recall everything that had happened in the past decade and more, every second, every minute of their time together....

That adorable child had slowly grown up. He had liked Han Wenqian more and more, depended on him more and more. Han Wenqian’s doting had made him like that. This was the younger brother he had raised and pampered wholeheartedly. He had made him into the kind of person he liked the best.

And now, he had personally destroyed him....

Perhaps Xie He would not betray him again in this life. Perhaps it would be different from the last life.

He found that as long as he was with Xie He, he would unconsciously love him again...and then his determination would waver.

The next morning, Han Wenqian went to Xie He’s school early. He had been really worried about Xie He.

But when he arrived, he saw Qin Ye and Xie He together. Xie He obediently let Qin Ye hold his hand. He said that he didn’t want to go home. He then went to a hotel with Qin Ye.

Han Wenqian stared as Qin Ye held Xie He’s hand. An unprecedented rage filled his head. He was a million times angrier than when he had seen Qin Ye and Xie He in bed together in his last life! Xie He was his!

He really wanted to charge over, but the last of his reasoning stopped him.

Han Wenqian silently followed after him. He sat in his car in the parking lot of the same hotel as Qin Ye that night. He smoked cigarette after cigarette. He hadn’t slept for two days. In the end, his eyes turned bloodshot.

The third morning, Han Wenqian finally stopped smoking and shut his eyes, pain filling his chest.

He had just forgotten what had happened in the last life. He was about to love Xie He again, but everything from his last life was about to be repeated. Even if he had already worked hard to stop it, even if he changed many things, they still ended up together in the end.

Han Wenqian thought that he should not hesitate any longer.

His grudge should end. If he let Xie He stay by his side, he would definitely fall in love with him...so he should expel him from the family, make him disappear from his life.

He should completely sever their relationship. He should have done this a long time ago.

?Ding, the target Han Wenqian’s Blackening Value +20. The current Favourability Value is 75. The current Blackening Value is 100.?

....................................

The next morning, when Xie He woke up, Qin Ye had prepared breakfast and a clean change of clothes for him.

Xie He quietly said to Qin Ye, “Thank you.”

Qin Ye cocked an eyebrow up and smiled. “You’ve thanked me so many times but you’ve never actually shown me your thanks.... Are you really not going to consider my proposal?”

Xie He looked up at him. “If it wasn’t for the Han Family, I’d be an orphan right now.”

Qin Ye’s lips parted, as if he wanted to say something. In the end, he just said, “I’ll take you back to school.”

When he thought of what had happened at Xie He’s school, he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. I’m sorry...but you should face reality now.

Xie He arrived at school and entered his classroom. However, he discovered that people were giving him strange looks. Some people were whispering to each other and pointing at him. Their gazes were no longer friendly as they once were. Instead, there was contempt and disgust in their eyes. A cold maliciousness surrounded him.

Xie He felt his body go cold. A bad premonition filled him, striking fear in his heart. He stared back, puzzled and helpless. Hesitatingly, he asked an upperclassman who was usually very caring towards him what was going on.

However, the upperclassman who had always been gentle and friendly took a step back. He looked at Xie He as if he was the plague. He said with a frigid tone, “It’s perfect that you’re here. There are police officers looking for you. They’re in Teacher Xu’s office. Quickly head over there.”

Xie He’s mind went blank. Police officers...it made him recall the horrifying memories of that night...it couldn’t be....

But that upperclassman had nothing else to say to Xie He and simply left.

Xie He walked towards his teacher’s office with heavy steps. Every step made him feel like he was getting closer to a deep abyss. Perhaps things were not as he thought...it couldn’t be....

But the incessant sounds of discussion entered his ears. Those students all recognized him and began to gossip about him without restraint.

“So Lin Xin has actually been doing drugs! How scary! So he didn’t look like that because he was sick but because he was doing drugs?”

“Absolutely. I wonder if he’s got diseases, ah. How frightening.”

“Right. I heard that those kinds of people all have diseases....”

“Stay away from him from now on. Don’t get led astray by him. Right, he’ll definitely be expelled because he did such things....”

“I think so....”

Xie He covered his ears. He had a splitting headache. Why? Why did the police come to school? They hadn’t appeared for so long, so why did they appear now?

No. He couldn’t go, he couldn’t go....

Xie He suddenly turned around and ran away.

?444?Why is Han Wenqian doing this? QAQ?

?Xie He?Baby, he’s framing me so that he can kick me out of the Han Family, ah. Smile.JPG?

?444?Yingyingying. QAQ?

?Xie He?I’ll make his wish come true. ? ?

?444?......?
