Mo Yisheng has always been a person who will do whatever he wants. And this time, he made up his mind and said that he would leave.
Then, Yan Hai’an went to find He Ling.
Sun Yan’s driver is also ready to become a qualified thug. After Yan Hai’an has hit him, he also thinks he will help him vent his anger.
When Yan Hai’an found He Ling, the other party was at a salon. Li Qing was also there. As soon as she saw Yan Hai’an, her face looked bad. She didn’t even greet him: “What are you doing here?”
“Long time no see.” Yan Hai’an glanced at him. He Ling was still dressed like an old artist. He was sitting on the salon seat. He was obviously the protagonist today. Seeing Yan Hai’an coming, his expression changed. But he still managed to maintain his composure.
Yan Hai’an politely said to Li Qing, “Let’s not bother about the past. There are other things to do today.”
Li Qing felt that something was wrong and stared at him: “Mo Yisheng is still at the police station, right? Why don’t you take care of him? What are you doing here to look for me? As for your friend, we don’t plan to sue him. But you don’t have to go too far.”
Yan Hai’an bent down and picked up a cup of tea. He smiled and said, “Going too far? What do you mean by going too far?”
He splashed the tea on He Ling: “Like this?”
Li Qing stood up suddenly: “Yan Hai’an!”
He Ling also stood up angrily.
Yan Hai’an stopped talking. He picked up He Ling’s neckline and pushed him off. A group of people made a messy noise around them. Li Qing screamed: “What the hell are you doing?! Call the police! Call the police!”
Yan Hai’an didn’t say any more nonsense. So he started beating He Ling as soon as he was in his grasp. He Ling wanted to fight back, but he was not Yan Hai’an’s opponent at all. He was only good at covering his face. But Yan Hai’an easily pushed his hand away and hit him in the face.
Sun Yan stopped his car near the salon to catch up to his boyfriend. But he didn’t expect that he was a step behind. The scene had developed to such a degree that he couldn’t help but to unconsciously whistle and clap his hands: “Wow. It’s amazing.”
The others finally came to their senses. They were about to pull Yan Hai’an away so Sun Yan stepped forward instead. He was tall and swift so the group of people were pushed away by him only in a few strokes. They could only turn around and shout to Yan Hai’an whenever they could. Sun Yan said: “Baby, don’t use your hands too often. Kick with your feet and save effort.”
Li Qing was stunned looking at the scene after calling for the police.
Yan Hai’an got up. He looked down on He Ling who couldn’t get up, shook his bloody hand, turned around and took a crystal ashtray from the table. He squatted down to grab He Ling’s hand and said with a soft laugh, “You can’t draw anything decent anyway with this. So why keep it?”
He Ling looked at him in fear: “You. You… this is against the law…”
Yan Hai’an smiled. He raised his hand high but his wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone when he was about to hit He Ling’s hand.
His pupils shrank and he realised what he was trying to do.
“Okay, okay.” Sun Yan took the crystal ashtray off of his hand. He then let his hand go, “Did your hand hurt, baby? You don’t have to finish him all at once. Let’s finish him slowly.”
“Yan Hai’an, you’re crazy!” Li Qing shouted hysterically, “Mo Yisheng burned his paintings. And you beat him up like this! You two definitely don’t want to continue to get involved in this circle!”
Sun Yan patted Yan Hai’an’s back to coax him. He then looked back at Li Qing: “You say it again. Who was it that can’t go on in the circle?”
Li Qing choked on her own words. How could she have forgotten about this man? ! She thought that Sun Yan had tasted Mo Yisheng already, but she didn’t expect him to not get tired of him after so long? She hasn’t heard from He Ling that Mo Yisheng is still in contact with him!
Oh no.
She took a deep breath and became speechless. Some people went to help He Ling. Meanwhile, some people wanted to stop Sun Yan and Yan Hai’an. But they didn’t dare to go forward.
He Ling’s body hurts. But his face hurts even more. He has been held up too high recently, which has made his self-esteem go up. However, his face was pressed and rubbed against the ground by Yan Hai’an. He was shaking with anger. His face was pale. As he was supported, he said: “Yan Hai’an…you…”
Li Qing knew the stakes and hurriedly stopped him: “Let’s go to the hospital first.”
He Ling pushed her away. He faced the backs of the two of them and said, “Why do you beat people? Is there still any law here?”
Yan Hai’an paused. This time, Sun Yan turned around, picked up the crystal ashtray he just put away and smashed it in He Ling’s direction.
Boom!
The sizable ashtray brushed against He Ling’s cheek before hitting the wall behind him. It shattered to the ground.
He Ling’s face froze blankly.
“You can find my lawyer.” Sun Yan sneered. He threw his business card, grabbed Yan Hai’an, and swaggered him away.
After getting into the car, Sun Yan took out a tissue and wiped the blood on Yan Hai’an’s hands: “He’s not worth the trouble for you.”
Yan Hai’an sighed: “Damn it. Fucking scumbag. I can’t control myself when I see that face. It’s long overdue to beat him so much that he doesn’t dare to come out to see anyone.”
“You haven’t calmed down yet?” Sun Yan looked at him sideways and decided to ask Sun Ling how things were going on his side.
Yan Hai’an hit too hard and his hands trembled slightly. Sun Yan wiped it clean and held it gently: “There are ways to make his life worse than death. Don’t be angry, okay? Don’t be angry.”
With the great god Sun Yan by his side, the matter didn’t turn out to be a big deal. Yan Hai’an just felt that he couldn’t take it. Even if Yisheng didn’t want that painting, it shouldn’t be taken advantage of by such a villain.
What surprised him was that a month later, news broke that the young painter He Ling’s award-winning work was plagiarism. And he admitted it himself. But he didn’t say who the real painter was. He only said that he hired someone to paint it for him.
There was also an exclusive interview with a TV station about this. He Ling on the video was very haggard. He looked as if he had taken drugs.
Yan Hai’an couldn’t figure out how such a thing could happen. Is He Ling trying to be funny? Did he add controversy to himself up to this point? Isn’t it crazy?
Sun Yan was clear about who made it happen. So he said casually: “What did Sun Ling do? This guy was tricked by him to go to Macau to gamble. Sun Ling talked to him there. How easy it is to be tricked into such a game? He let the surnamed He lost more than 10 million at a time. Sun Ling hired a debt collector to ask him to give him the money or the debt collector will cut his hands and feet without it. Do you think for a villain like him, life is more important or reputation is more important?”
Of course, it was possible to search for and collect evidence in order to fight back and forth with He Ling in an upright manner. They can also use the media to suppress him and to clear up about who really painted the painting. It was not impossible for them to win. But Sun Ling has never liked to do such inefficient things. This kind of person is not worth too much trouble.
Yan Hai’an silently watched the video in which He Ling reflected on himself and moved towards sensationalism. It was as if he was a prodigal son who was tortured by his conscience and finally admitted his wrongdoing to the public.
It was so fucking disgusting.
Sun Yan glanced at Yan Hai’an’s expression and persuaded him with a smile: “Don’t worry. You think it’s such a simple thing to just make him confess his wrongdoing? But if you give it a little more sweetness, you can see it this way… When he’s done talking, he’ll be stared at by the others and his life will be over.”
Yan Hai’an turned off the TV and let out a sigh of relief: “Forget it. I don’t want to pay attention to him anymore. It sucks.”
“Don’t worry,” Sun Yan hugged him by the waist, “I have something to ask you to help with.”
“You asking me for help?” Yan Hai’an was very suspicious. What is it that Sun Yan wants if he asks for help from him?
Sun Yan said: “I have discussed with Sun Ling. We want to open a private art museum. But you also know that I don’t really understand your circle. Didn’t you say before that you are considering closing down the studio? Why don’t you help me with the art museum?”
After Mo Yisheng left, Yan Hai’an thought about it for a long time and hesitated whether to close down the studio. This was not his interest in the first place. His interest was in painting itself.
Sun Yan’s suggestion for this is: “Why don’t you come and work for me? I’m short of an assistant. You can decide the salary yourself.”
Yan Hai’an said to him to cut it off and that there are a lot of other assistants waiting in line. Even a life assistant is needed by him.
Sun Yan also suggested for Yan Hai’an to go back to painting and sell it to him directly after painting. Which sounds perfect to himself.
Yan Hai’an already felt that the two of them couldn’t communicate well. So he doesn’t want to have nothing to do other than spending time at home and painting. He is not a wife married to a wealthy family.
But this matter is not to be decided in a hurry. Yan Hai’an is going to follow the previous model and think about the future direction. Of course, he still has to stay in this industry. One reason is because he likes it. And the other is because Mo Yisheng has not left the industry completely yet.
Now that Sun Yan made such a proposal, Yan Hai’an was very moved.
These days, many investors are taking this road. One of the big factors is that it is easy to pass the land acquisition review in the name of cultural public welfare undertakings such as for the construction of art museums. It can also obtain substantial benefits in terms of taxation and time limit. Many investors will directly use private art galleries to enhance the reputation of high-end projects. Meanwhile, the government is also happy to see investors engage in social welfare, which is a mutually beneficial relationship.
For the Sun family, this can be conveniently achieved.
Yan Hai’an said rationally: “I have to think about it first. Though I may not be able to do it.”
“It’s not like I’ll let you be the leader as soon as you work. I’ll definitely find a good team. So you can learn along the way.” Sun Yan kissed him on the neck, “Anyway, you like doing these things.”
After analysing his own abilities rationally in his heart, Yan Hai’an said, “Okay, it should be fine.”
If it is possible to keep a boyfriend in captivity, Sun Yan expressed it in such a way. He was very happy and made a mess of Yan Hai’an’s hair.
Yan Hai’an waited for him to finish messing around before saying, “My dad’s birthday is coming.”
Sun Yan asked naturally, “Okay, what should I buy for my parents-in-law?”
Yan Hai’an said: “I want to go back home.”
Sun Yan closed his mouth, becoming not so happy anymore: “Oh. When?”
“In just a few more days.” Yan Hai’an pursed his lips. He had been thinking about this for a long time. He also told Yan Haijian about it in advance. The other party didn’t say anything to persuade him not to do it this time. “Take a short leave. Will you be free to go with me?”
Sun Yan was still sullen: “Oh. You can go.”
Yan Hai’an: “…”
Sun Yan finally reacted in surprise: “…Wait? You want me to go with you?”
Yan Hai’an puts on an indifferent face: “Oh. You don’t need to.”
Yan Hai’an patted the cushion in his arms, got up and went back to the bedroom.
“Hey!” Sun Yan jumped up and chased after him, “Make it clear! Do you want to take me to see your parents?!”
