Chapter 18
Chapter 18
"He doesn't remember you?" Yan Shan repeated softly.
How can you not remember?
Yan Shan didn't quite understand how to understand Lin Wei's words.
The coffee shop is not newly opened, and that person is still running the shop as usual as the owner. Since he has not completely lost all memory of the past, the most likely reason is that he just doesn't remember Lin Wei.
However, how can people lose part of their memories out of thin air.
What happened that caused him not to remember Lin Wei?
Yan Shan guessed uncertainly: "I saw a wound on his forehead, did he lose his memory?"
Lin Wei took a sip of coffee and said, "I asked Beres to delete his memory about me."
Yan Shan: "..."
How could he still do this trick!
Seeing that Yan Shan was so surprised that he was speechless, Lin smiled, put down his coffee, and said, "According to my plan, you shouldn't remember the experience in the villa after delivering the key to me. You thought you had completed my commission and left after receiving the final payment from me."
"But I really didn't expect you... well, how should I put it..." Lin Wei stopped talking and looked at Yan Shan, his eyes flickered and he considered his words, and continued: "You are not in good health, you will be buried Reis was so seriously affected, your stress response at that time really scared me."
Yan Shan was pressed on the carpet by Bayes and almost had a heart attack. The severe pain, lack of oxygen, and the sudden screaming auditory hallucinations made his life worse than death at that moment.
Lin Wei hadn't finished speaking yet, she looked helplessly at Yan Shan and stared at him with a little colder eyes, implying a wave of hatred.
Yan Shan gritted his teeth with hatred and said: "It's my fate, I didn't die in your hands."
Lin Wei sighed: "You should hate me." He took out a piece of paper from the bag he was carrying, put it on the table, and pushed it to Yan Shan's side: "Here is the paper that I promised before. The follow-up entrustment money for you, the entrustment is that I lied to you, this money should be regarded as my compensation for medical expenses and mental damage expenses."
Yan Shan doesn't move, and doesn't look at the card, what does Lin Wei want to do?She deliberately harmed someone, saw the matter was exposed, and paid a sum of money to finish the matter, planning to reconcile in private, but let it go?
Because I am a public figure, I am afraid that Yan Shan's reputation will be ruined if he is exposed, so did you pay the hush money?
Yan Shan sneered a few times, and said teasingly: "Hey, gag me with money? That's right, you still have a photo in my hand, afraid that I will sell it to Gossip Weekly for a good price? The popular star is gay, The intimate photo with her boyfriend was exposed, this headline is very explosive when you think about it, it should be able to sell for a lot of money."
Lin Wei ignored Yan Shan's provocation and threat, and he said in a calm tone: "If you are not satisfied with the money I paid, I can exchange other information you need. Whatever you ask, I can say. .As for the photo, it involves two people. I hope you don't use it to make a fuss about me. As you can see, he is a stranger to me now. He is a complete stranger. He doesn't remember me. Once it is exposed Group photos, the consequences are uncontrollable."
Yan Shan looked at him mockingly, without saying a word or expressing his opinion.
He had wondered why Lin Wei wanted Xiaobai to show up for a meeting under the threat of Xiaobai, and chose this coffee shop. Was it because he wanted to solve the hidden dangers left by the group photo sent to him in advance?
Indeed, Yan Shan was holding that photo in his hand. Lin Wei considered that he had offended Yan Shan too much last time, so it was hard to guarantee that the other party would not think of using the photo to deal with him. It was like a deep water bomb, as long as it was leaked to the media It was published there, once the bomb/bomb explodes, it will definitely trigger a tsunami, and the huge waves will shatter everything. All the popularity, attention, fan base, including the future of his acting career, will be wiped out. , Lin Wei's status as a star is basically over.
However, Yan Shan's temperament is not ruthless enough, even though he was annoyed that Lin Wei plotted against him, he never planned to use that photo to make trouble.
He suffered a loss, learned a lesson, and developed a memory.
From now on, staying away from someone like Lin Wei is enough for Yan Shan, he doesn't want to spend his mind on trying to deal with someone.To push the other party into the quagmire, it is best to step on [-] feet so that they will never turn over. Yan Shan can't do this, he can't do it, and he doesn't bother to make such efforts.
But Yan Shan didn't intend to make it clear to Lin Wei right away, he didn't let go of the pent-up anger in his heart, so let Lin Wei worry about it first.
Can't he be eloquent? Let's see what else he can do to settle this matter.
He lost successive battles with Lin Wei before, now he finally found a chance, maybe he can win back.
Yan Shan really wanted to watch the excitement, he had never seen what a person like Lin Wei would look like when he was in a hurry.
How far can I push Lin Wei?
Yan Shan was looking forward to seeing it with his own eyes, and he couldn't help but gloat a little.
In the end, Lin Wei's way was deeper, he was a foot taller, seeing that Yan Shan would not give in, he made a big move very simply.
Lin Wei said solemnly without hesitation: "If you are still not satisfied with what I said, how about it, as long as you agree, I can hold a press conference to announce my retirement from the entertainment industry."
As a popular idol, he must cherish his career and reputation very much, the two are closely bound together to pave the way for his future.
If you become famous, your career will go further; if you succeed in your career, your reputation will naturally spread wider.
After all, the former is for fame, while the latter is for profit.
If Yan Shan wants to push Lin Wei to the bottom line, step on the edge of the cliff and face the abyss with his back, there is no way to retreat, nothing more than getting the word fame and fortune right, Lin Wei, who has tasted the sweetness from it, is reluctant to let go.He was complacent, waiting to see the usual calm Lin Wei's joke about being in a desperate situation and panicking, Yan Shan's evil smile just appeared, and the smile didn't reach the corners of his eyes.In front of Yan Shan, Lin Wei took the initiative to turn around and jumped without hesitation, and jumped off the cliff lightly, and then said at the end of the abyss that it was nothing to you, I landed safely, and my body was not broken.
Lin Wei is very thoughtful, aren't you a threat?You don't need to come, I will do it myself.If you say give up, you give up. It is absolutely unambiguous, so the card in your hand cannot threaten me.
You think you are choking my lifeline of chasing fame and fortune, but in fact, I can let go of all these gracefully.
Yan Shan is really stupid, the kind of brain froze, unable to react in a daze.He needed time to restart the system, so he quickly figured it out.
The script was wrong with what he had imagined at the beginning!Shouldn't Lin Wei cry bitterly and beg him to let him go, and mournfully tell how hard this journey has been, how hard it has been for him to make a lot of sacrifices, and finally get to where he is today, so don't leak the photos to the media.Then Yan Shan got angry enough, sneered a few times, and taught him a lesson, warning him not to do evil in the future, otherwise he would end up miserable if he knew it, Lin Wei nodded and vowed to change his past from now on, Yan Shan was satisfied After listening to it, I made a high profile and graciously stopped pursuing this matter.Facing the forgiveness, Lin Wei cried and said: Yan Shan, you are such a kind and good person!
The above is the product of Yan Shan, a naive screenwriter of bad movies.
It's a pity that Lin Wei didn't act according to Yan Shan's script at all.What he said unexpectedly stunned Yan Shan, leaving Yan Shan completely at a loss as to what to do next.
How should I say it?How should I say it?
Held a press conference to quit the entertainment circle.It's too serious, Yan Shan never planned to make trouble to such a difficult level.
He was dumbfounded for a moment: "Are you serious?"
"Since I dare to say it, it must be true. The entertainment industry is nothing more than that. Under the spotlight, you are forced to accept the judgment of the public. As long as you are a popular paparazzi, you will endlessly pursue your private life. To put it bluntly, whether it is an artist or a star, it is just a pastime for others. It’s just to be glamorous and decent, it’s just to satisfy the vanity, it’s not interesting to make money, I’ve already given up on it.” Lin Wei said, turning his head to look at the street scene outside the window, he looked far away, looked at Pedestrians coming and going on the side of the square said lightly: "I won't live long. I have seen through many things. Fame and fortune are dispensable."
Yan Shan followed Lin Wei's line of sight and looked outside, how many people in the bustling crowd were doomed to be mediocre in their lives, they were mediocre, they struggled with fame and wealth all their lives, their abilities were limited, and many People ask for it but don't get it, or get it and lose it again.If they had the chance to stand in Lin Wei's position, could they just leave behind him casually like him?
He stared intently at the sculptures in the square not far away, and there were passers-by walking by constantly. These people carried different pasts, lived their own lives, passed each other, and soon disappeared in the crowd, and then Can't find it either.
After a long time, Yan Shan opened his mouth and said softly: "You hold what many people dream of, and if you say give up, you will give up. You are so cruel."
Lin Wei said: "I'm used to doing whatever I want, and I don't care about things that I don't care about."
Yan Shan remained silent. Forcing Lin Wei to retire would be tantamount to death. It would not do him any good. He would lose the only chance to get some answers from Lin Wei. Once he missed it, many unknown The mystery will continue to puzzle him, and Yan Shan hates being blinded by his ignorance.
Such revenge is not worth the candle.
"What is the price you pay for summoning the demon?"
Yan Shan didn't mention the photo again, he spoke in a calm tone, not as thorny as when he was provocative before.
Lin Wei knew that his words meant that the deal he proposed in exchange for information in exchange for photos not being exposed was established with Yan Shan's acquiescence.
Lin Wei thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I don't fully understand it either. Bailes didn't say what it was, and he never talked much. From his explanation in a few words, I understand that it is something in Buddhism. The consciousness proposed."
"Spiritual consciousness, the mind and consciousness of all living beings, what the eyes see, what the ears hear, what the nose smells, what the tongue tastes, what the body feels, human consciousness, self-knowledge, and finally the eighth consciousness, Alaya consciousness: The seeds of good and evil, the conditions for reincarnation." Lin Wei said unhurriedly, as if talking about something that had nothing to do with him: "As a price, I will exchange my own consciousness, so that I will not enter reincarnation after death. After one life is over, it’s over. It’s clean and nothing will be left. This is the price I’ve paid for summoning demons, as far as I know.”
Yan Shan listened, remembering what Lin Wei said just now, he asked incomprehensibly: "You can't reincarnate, you don't have an afterlife, but why do you say you won't live long?"
Lin Wei said flatly: "There is still a condition for fulfilling the wish, half the lifespan."
Yan Shan stared blankly at Lin Wei, and murmured: "...half of... life span?"
Lin Wei tilted her head slightly towards the bar: "He's given it."
"During the time we broke up, he was in a car accident and managed to rescue him from the gate of death, but he was still in a coma. Finally, the doctor diagnosed him as a vegetable." Lin Wei lowered his eyes and said calmly: "If he didn't I am rescued, completely dead, and I will give up. People, good or bad, no matter who is going to die, there is no way to escape. I understand this very well. But I can't accept that he can't be counted as alive, and he can't be said to be dead. , lying motionless on the hospital bed with a tube inserted."
Yan Shan's voice was almost inaudible: "I always think that you don't love him that much."
Lin Wei looked at him inexplicably.
"In that photo, your group photo, you turned your head towards the camera, while he leaned on your shoulder. It seems that he loves you more."
Lin Wei smiled at Yan Shan, and said: "Really? So my feelings have faded at that time. I'm not affectionate enough. The feeling of love comes quickly, and it disappears quickly. Didn't Jay Chou sing 'Love'? It's like a tornado." He blinked playfully, "But I did love him once."
Yan Shan lowered his head, fiddling with the gauze wrapped around his right wrist: "Why are you willing to tell me this?"
Lin Wei narrowed his eyes and didn't speak right away. He didn't know what he thought of. After a pause, he said: "There is no one around me who can talk about it. This matter is not visible, and no one understands it. No one has ever known it. I also have some Xiao Lonely, I used to think that confiding was a weak act, but it was only when I carried it alone that I realized that it would be tiring after a long time.” Lin smiled and looked at Yan Shan: “You are the first person I come into contact with who can You can understand the people who speak on this, and what you say, and..."
He paused: "And... I think if it's you, you will understand."
In Yan Shan's impression, Lin Wei was not someone who would make such a choice. He really couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help asking: "Don't you regret it? You won't live long, and there will be no next life."
"It doesn't matter whether you are reckless or reckless. I never care about it." Lin Wei spread his hands: "What about longevity? Is it difficult to move at home when you are seven or eighty? I can't wait for that day, and I don't want to live that kind of life. Live Just have fun. I was born beautiful. After realizing this, my appearance has gradually become a burden. I am more afraid of getting old than others. If one day I look in the mirror and find that I am irretrievably old, I will not be able to bear it .”
Lin Wei said bluntly: "I live in the present and don't think about the future."
It’s like he was explaining to the costumer why he had to wear this suit to shoot a magazine cover when he entered the studio to take pictures, as if what he was talking about was ordinary trivial matters, even if it was about his own destiny that was forcibly reversed , is not worthy of too much attention.
Yan Shan sighed deeply in his heart: I'm afraid this is Lin Wei's original face under many disguises.
He asked again: "How do you plan to solve the blood problem in the future?"
Lin Wei said, "It's no longer necessary."
Yan Shan frowned and said, "Do you want Bailes anymore?"
"I found a substitute, the way is legal and guaranteed, so..." Lin Wei glanced at Yan Shan guiltily: "I won't hurt the innocent again."
Yan Shan was worried, and asked, "Where did you find it?"
Lin Wei avoided the question: "Sorry, I can only tell you this, I can't say anything else."
The phone on the table vibrated suddenly, it was Lin Wei's cell phone, he glanced at the caller ID, and smiled apologetically at Yan Shan: "Sorry, I'll answer the call."
Yan Shan motioned for him to go ahead, then lowered his head, stretched his hand closer to the plate of fruit presented by the white-haired boss in front of him, which he didn't plan to touch at first, Yan Shan's right wrist still hurt a bit, so he had to change the fork to his left hand, and move Jerkyly, he picked up fruit pieces from the plate and brought them to his mouth. He rarely used his left hand at ordinary times, and after two or three awkward gestures, he managed to pierce a piece of dragon fruit.
Lin Wei put the phone close to her ear, listened to the conversation with a blank face, and finally replied slowly: "I'll go back after finishing the matter at hand." After speaking, he hung up the phone.
Yan Shan focused on competing with the fruit platter, he had to poke all the fruits on the plate one by one with the fork in his left hand before he was reconciled. He heard Lin Wei put down his phone and continued to poke the fruit without moving his head. He raised his voice and said: "You have to leave first, I don't think of anything else to ask here for the time being."
Lin smiled and said, "If you think of anything, please send me a message, and I will reply to you."
Lin Wei put on his sunglasses while talking, turned around and beckoned at the bar, after a while the owner of the coffee shop came up to him, his white hair was so dazzling no matter what time he saw it, he couldn't remember who Lin Wei was in front of him. The person he once loved deeply, just smiled politely at Lin Wei.
Lin Wei was not in a hurry to pay the bill, he looked up at the other party and asked softly: "I used to come here often, I'm a regular customer, I remember you had a car accident some time ago, how is your recovery now?"
The boss replied gently: "The body is almost in good condition, there is no problem, but sometimes I always remember things wrong."
The two of them were chatting, when the phone at the bar rang, the boss turned his head to look, and subconsciously shouted: "Xiaowei, go and answer the phone."
The young clerk who was wiping the decorative coffee cups on the cabinet turned his head angrily when he heard the sound, and shouted in a crisp voice, "What did you call me? Say it again?!"
The white-haired boss suddenly raised his hand to support his forehead weakly: "I'm sorry, sorry, I made a mistake when I was in a hurry, you should hurry up and answer the phone."
The young clerk snorted extremely disdainfully at him, slapped the towel in his hand, turned around and took a few steps to answer the phone.
Lin Wei listened silently, his sunglasses covered his eyes, so he couldn't see his expression clearly, he turned sideways to glance at the bar, and suddenly interrupted and asked: "That clerk is very unfamiliar, new here? "
The boss smiled softly between his eyebrows, and explained: "He is not a shop assistant, he is here to help."
"Your lover?" Lin Wei teased with a certain tone.
The boss nodded and admitted.
Lin Wei looked back again, and said, "You are very suitable."
The boss smiled slightly, a little embarrassed: "I fell in love with him at first sight."
"Really? Bless you all." Lin Wei opened his wallet while talking, took out a stack of cash and put it gently on the table, then he stood up, and patted the boss on the shoulder with familiar movements: "Be happy!"
The boss hurriedly stopped Lin Wei and turned to leave, saying, "Too much money."
Lin Wei said: "I used to come here often, I got to know you once and for all, and I'm still friends with you, maybe you don't remember me very much now, these are my red envelopes to congratulate you on your recovery from the hospital, they came in a hurry, so I don't pay attention to details It's gone. Keep it."
Then he waved to Yan Shan to signal Yan Shan to follow him, and the two left one after the other.
They walked along the sidewalk beside the square for more than ten meters. Lin Wei turned around and took a last look at the coffee shop. Won't be going back."
Yan Shan walked beside him and asked softly, "Aren't you sad?"
Lin Wei turned his head and looked at Yan Shan: "I originally mentioned breaking up first, why should I be sad, why should we be together if we don't love enough." He said flatly: "Love is not pity, if you don't love, you have to say goodbye as soon as possible. .”
Then Lin Wei stopped, hesitated for a moment, and reminded in a low voice: "I overheard Beres mention a while ago, it seems that some forces are inquiring about someone, from the description, the person they are looking for looks a bit like You, but I'm not the right age, I can't tell, maybe I'm worrying too much, anyway, you should pay attention."
He changed the subject and jokingly said: "Although the brain is very smart, it is also very young. Be more careful next time, and don't be tricked by someone again."
Yan Shan glanced at Lin Wei: "As long as you are willing to stay at home honestly, I feel that the world is much safer."
Lin Wei laughed hard when he heard this, he leaned over Yan Shan's shoulders and laughed for a while, before he stopped laughing, he said: "I have to go first, send a message if there is something to do."
Yan Shan nodded.
They were facing two different directions and separated.
