Who was Shao Mingyu?
Born into a wealthy family and has had a legendary life story!
Rumored to be uninterested in either men or women, showing not the slightest bit of interest towards love but possessing outstanding looks, a great physique, and immense wealth!
He was practically considered as one of the top-tier alphas!
Just after Yu Lan posted the photo, Shao Mingyu immediately posted this photo. What could this mean? Who wouldn’t be able to see it?!
The situation of the two hands holding each other in the photo, again, who wouldn’t be able to see it?!
But——how could it possibly be him?!
Many people promptly went through Shao Mingyu’s list of followed accounts one by one. Shao Mingyu’s list had always been inaccessible, but at this moment, it suddenly became visible to everyone. And to everyone’s surprise, among the very few accounts he followed, the last one was none other than Yu Lan!
So……
……Shao Mingyu and Yu Lan were really?!
It was also at this moment that a fashion blogger posted an analysis on Star Network, stating that the original meaning of the Silver Moon Clan’s ribbon was not “You can buy my body.” but rather “I love you.”. This was how the Silver Moon Clan showed their love, simple, beautiful, and passionate.
Yu Lan had taken this set of professional photos at this critical moment, most likely as a response to the recent online debate.
——No matter how many people attempt to condemn the entire Silver Moon Clan, there were still members who held onto their original intentions, carrying their purest and most passionate selves through this world.
They felt no shame in being part of the Silver Moon Clan; they looked straight ahead without any fear.
However, the significance of this photo was likely not limited to just that——
這張照片，亦是在告訴那些自甘墮落的銀月族。This photo was also a message to those Silver Moon Clan who had resigned themselves to their fate.
——Do you still remember the original meaning of that ribbon?
——Do you still remember what you were like when you first started?
This photo was a bold counterattack against absolutely unrestrained defamation. It was also a call for the return to the original intentions of the Silver Moon Clan.
While a storm was brewing online, in the room at the end of the villa’s third floor, Yu Lan leaned against the balcony railing with his eyes closed, feeling the night breeze.
Behind him, footsteps approached, and a man embraced him from behind.
Yu Lan spoke, “Mr. Shao, my mom may have thought of herself as a failure, but I don’t.”
The man gently rubbed his head with his chin.
Yu Lan opened his eyes and said, “Not succumbing to following the crowd blindly or getting caught up in hard situations, rather, she stayed true to her original intentions, left that place, and step by step with determination, walked towards a better future. People like that are all successful.”
In his eyes reflected a round full moon.
Gentle and pure.
……
The online debate continued throughout the entire night without stopping.
In fact, there were all kinds of people on the web. Many who weren’t satisfied with their lives in the real world vented their frustrations anonymously online, with the Silver Moon Clan being one of their targets.
They didn’t care about how many members of the Silver Moon Clan hadn’t sold their bodies and were striving to make a living.
They just wanted to insult and take pleasure by humiliating a particular group.
They didn’t need reason or objectivity; they only needed to vent their frustrations.
Yet Yu Lan’s photos were like a double-edged sword, tearing through the masks covering their faces, revealing their true selves.
——You know there are individuals within the Silver Moon Clan who are hardworking and positive, but you choose to turn a blind eye to them.
——You clearly know what Yu Lan’s photo was trying to convey, but you deliberately distort its meaning.
On the other end of the web, what kind of people were they?
They flew into a rage out of humiliation but what caught them off guard was that Shao Mingyu publicly acknowledged his relationship with Yu Lan. He accepted the ribbon from Yu Lan, embracing the love it symbolized. He also tightly held Yu Lan’s hand and stood by his side.
Many fashion bloggers came forward to interpret Yu Lan’s photos and speak up for him.
In addition, many members of the Silver Moon Clan voiced their experiences of injustice due to their identity in life. They highly admired Yu Lan for having the courage to express his true feelings.
Gradually, more influential figures also joined in. A lot of them didn’t hesitate to express their admiration for Yu Lan’s bold actions.
For the first time, there was a remarkably evident shift in the online public opinion about the Silver Moon Clan.
But there were still those who were unwilling to accept it.
“I don’t believe the Shao family would accept a member of the Silver Moon Clan.”
“Well, if I remember correctly, Boss Shao seemed to have lived with his mom since he was a child. Whether to accept Yu Lan or not is probably a matter for the Luo family and not the Shao family……”
“LMAO1LMAO – Laughing My Ass Off! I also don’t believe the Luo family would accept a Silver Moon Clan member.”
“Isn’t it obvious? No true aristocratic family would accept someone from the Silver Moon Clan!”
While some online users focused their attention on Yu Lan and Shao Mingyu’s relationship, the two of them were getting ready to depart for the Luo family mansion.
Yu Lan was extremely nervous. At times, he sat on the steps outside lost in thought. At other times, he tugged at a few strands of his hair while looking at himself in the mirror, occasionally approaching Shao Mingyu, asking, “Mr. Shao, does my outfit really look okay?”
“Mr. Shao, m-my hair, is it okay?”
“Mr. Shao, I——”
Shao Mingyu reached out and pulled him into a hug, kissing him until he was dazed, before finally letting him go.
As a result, the blushing youth followed him onto the spaceship in a daze.
In the afternoon, they arrived at the Luo family mansion.
On the way, Shao Mingyu mentioned his family matters to Yu Lan once again.
When he was two years old, his parents divorced. He lived with his mother, but most of the time, it was his maternal grandfather who took care of him.
When he was four, his father remarried and had Shao Yuan. When he was five, his mother remarried and later had a younger sister with her husband.
Yu Lan initially listened attentively but as he heard the later part, a pair of deep blue eyes stared at Shao Mingyu, with a hint of sympathy in them.
Shao Mingyu smiled, ruffled his hair, and said, “Are you feeling sorry for me?”
Yu Lan leaned on his shoulder and whispered, “I do feel sorry for you.”
Silly child.
Shao Mingyu sighed inwardly, hugged Yu Lan’s shoulder, and nuzzled the youth’s head with his cheek.
When they arrived at the Luo family mansion, someone was there to greet them at the entrance.
One of them was a well-dressed woman who, despite showing some signs of age, maintained her appearance quite well.
Shao Mingyu greeted the person with a casual, “Mom.”
The woman nodded indifferently and then examined Yu Lan.
Yu Lan immediately sensed the unfriendly gaze. However, the man held his hand and told him, “Call her mom.”
Yu Lan obediently greeted, “Hello, mom.”
Shao Mingyu’s steps paused.
The woman’s expression also became somewhat subtle.
At first, just calling “Mom” alongside Shao Mingyu would have been enough. After all, since the last family dinner, the woman had realized she couldn’t stop this young man from entering their home. Her father was also watching her closely, so no matter what happened today, as long as the youth called her, she had to respond. However, when the youth softly called her “Mom.”, for no reason at all……he somehow sounded adorable.
Yu Lan, still unsure of the situation, nervously glanced between the man beside him and the woman.
The man couldn’t help but chuckle, and the woman couldn’t maintain her stern expression. She shifted her gaze uncomfortably and said, “……Well, come on in then.”
Beside her, the butler kindly said, “Young master, Mr. Yu, please come in and have a seat.”
In the center of the living room, there were two sofas. A girl, looking somewhat reserved, sat on one of them. When she saw the two entering, she immediately stood up, and upon laying eyes on Yu Lan, her face lit up with surprise.
“This is my sister, Ranran.” Shao Mingyu whispered to Yu Lan.
Yu Lan obediently greeted her, “Hello, Ranran.”
“Hello, Ah Lan!” Ranran was quite excited. “Y-you look even more handsome in person than in the magazines.”
Yu Lan was a bit surprised; this little girl knew that he was a model.
The woman, Luo Mingjia, also took a seat on the opposite sofa, shot a glance at the two, and told Shao Mingyu, “Your maternal grandfather has a little matter to attend to; he’ll be back in a while. Also, your father will be joining us for dinner today.”
“Alright, got it.” Shao Mingyu replied while keeping an eye on the two beside him, one big and one small.
The girl was quite introverted. At sixteen, She had always been quiet and reserved, whether with family or outsiders, she didn’t speak much. This situation had become a concern for her family, but it hadn’t reached the point of seeking psychological help.
However, this time, she was surprisingly the one constantly bringing up topics between her and Yu Lan. It appeared that she had taken quite a liking to him.
Not only did Shao Mingyu notice, but Luo Mingjia on the opposite side also took notice, and her expression grew even more subtle.
She once again examined the youth.
There was no denying that the Silver Moon Clan had good looks.
And this youth’s appearance was undeniable, she had to admit that he may be among the best in the entire Silver Moon Clan.
Those eyes indeed didn’t seem to hold any schemes, unlike some members of the Silver Moon Clan she had imagined. His personality appeared rather gentle, however, she hadn’t expected Ranran to like him so much.
Anyway, she would never like the Silver Moon Clan even if the entire family, except for her, accepted them, she still would not——
”Shao Mingyu pulled Yu Lan closer and very naturally handed him a strawberry, adding to the previous conversation between the two, big one and small one. “Did the editor-in-chief of “’V” also post on Star Network? She seems to like you quite a bit.”
The youth took a bite of the strawberry and smiled, squinting his eyes, “Yes……it was also her who gave me the opportunity in the beginning!”
Ranran gathered the courage to speak but hesitated, feeling intimidated by her usually imposing older brother.
Shao Mingyu was just about to say something when he suddenly felt a strong gaze. He looked across and met Luo Mingjia’s glaring eyes.
Her eyes seemed to convey a single message: Your younger sister rarely speaks up, so why are you disturbing them? Just let her talk and shut up.
Shao Mingyu, “……”
After Luo Mingjia finished glaring, she crossed her arms, keeping a watchful eye on Ranran and Yu Lan
Although, she would never like the Silver Moon Clan no matter what, she absolutely——
The youth seemed to sense the gaze too and turned his head around, looking puzzled as he looked over.
Luo Mingjia, “Eat more strawberries.”
“？” Yu Lan, “Uh…y-yes?”
