    Story: Rebirth in the entertainment industry: Not becoming a king Author:Velvet Verity Novels words:5913 Update time:2023-07-14 07:39:44

    Breaking news!! The newly crowned rising star, Gu Lan'an, who just won the Bai Niao New Talent Award, has been hastily pulled out of the Spring Festival Gala after being exposed as a drug-using gay man!

    Breaking News!! As the newly rising popular celebrity, Gu Lan'an has long been indiscriminate in his relationships with both men and women, readily pursuing anyone with money. This kind of behavior has become unbearable for his former close friend, Fu Xi. On July 13th, Fu Xi called a press conference to expose his ugly true nature, causing him to lose millions of fans in an instant!

    Breaking News!! Gu Lan'an and Tianwang Zhaoye were exposed to having shared the same room for three days and three nights. Moreover, their ambiguous behavior when they went out together has sparked people's imagination.

    Standing on the 28th floor rooftop, Gu Lan'an looked at the string of headlines and comments filled with venomous words from her former die-hard fans, along with the mocking and ridiculing of some idle bystanders. She released her grip on her phone, smashing it onto the ground, and covered her stomach as she burst into uncontrollable laughter, unable to close her mouth. She kept muttering to herself, "Fu Xi, you really are a loyal friend to me. In my most glorious moment, you destroyed everything for me."

    "Lan An." A familiar yet anxiously unfamiliar voice echoed in Lan An's ears, causing her murmurs to abruptly cease. She visibly froze for a moment before turning her gaze in the direction where the voice came from. There, she saw Zhao Ye, disheveled and drenched in sweat, running towards her from a distance. Her nose immediately tingled, and she croaked out, "Zhao Ye."

    In his voice, there were countless grievances. However, even before he could arrive in front of himself, he abruptly took a step back and made a gesture to stop him, with a threatening tone saying, "Zhao Ye, don't come any closer. If you dare to come over, I'll jump from here right now."

    "Alright, I won't come over. Just don't do anything foolish!" Upon hearing this, Zhaoye immediately stopped and looked at him with a fragile and helpless expression on his face. Without daring to take a breath, he quickly reassured him, saying, "Lan An, don't act impulsively. I've already suppressed those news about you with Lin Xuan. The hot topics have been withdrawn. Soon, no one will discuss you anymore. Fu Xi has also been hidden by Lin Xuan. No one will be able to harm you anymore. We still have plenty of opportunities to make a comeback. Don't let this momentary defeat get to you."

    "No, it's gone. Zhao Ye, I don't have a chance to make a comeback anymore. The rumors will never cease," Gu Lan'an shook her head upon hearing the words, her tone gentle but tinged with despair. "It can never be suppressed, even if it's fake. Moreover, those things are all true."

    "What?" Zhaoye was taken aback by his words, and immediately, a deep sense of heartache followed.

    "Zhaoye, all of this is true!" Thinking that Zhaoye would eventually find out about his dirtiness, Gu Lan'an decided to come clean and reveal the secret that had been tormenting him day and night for a long time. "I am a drug addict. Since being set up five years ago, I have been addicted to drugs and have been unable to quit. I want to quit, but I can't. I have no qualms about men or women. In order to become the Heavenly King, I have been taken advantage of several times." Gu Lan'an paused for a moment and, feeling helpless, rubbed his temples vigorously with his hands, holding his head tightly, breaking down in a desperate cry, unable to speak. "Zhaoye, I am not the clean child you describe. I am dirty! My past, my present, my whole being is dirty. I don't deserve you, I don't deserve you."

    "I don't mind, I don't mind." Zhao Ye shook his head while inconspicuously moving a little closer. He stared at him without blinking, his gaze resolute, and told him, "Lan An, that's all in the past. Let's not dwell on it anymore. Let's live the present well, okay? I'll accompany you through rehab, and we can start anew."

    "It's impossible, Zhaoye. We can't start over again. I've already suffered a crushing defeat. If I stay with you, it will only ruin everything you've worked hard for, and it will destroy your future. Besides, I don't want to live anymore. Zhaoye, I can't hold on any longer. Every day, I dream of others pointing and cursing at me, of others wanting to take advantage of me... Every day, it's like this..." Stifling a sob, sniffing, tears slid down the corners of Gu Lan'an's eyes. Then, she suddenly regained her composure in a strange way. She stopped her actions, looked deeply into Zhaoye's eyes, and spoke softly, her voice filled with affection, "Zhaoye, I'm sorry for dragging you into this. If I die, there will be no proof of our relationship. You must deny it."

    "What nonsense are you talking about! There's no such thing as death! I won't allow you to die, and I won't deny our relationship. You are my beloved, there's nothing to be ashamed of." Zhao Ye scolded in a desperate and angry voice, tears that had been spinning in his eyes finally burst out uncontrollably.

    "With your words, my life is worth it." Upon hearing this, Gu Lan'an suddenly smiled, her radiance shining so brightly that it was almost blinding. She increased the volume of her voice and clearly told Zhao Ye, "Zhao Ye, I love you. If there is a next life, I promise I won't wait until I sit on the throne of the Heavenly King to tell you that I love you. I will tell you as soon as I see you for the first time, that I fell in love with you at first sight. I will accompany you, cleanly and wholeheartedly, for the rest of our lives." After saying this, he paused for a moment and then repeated once again in a murmur, "I love you." Then he opened his arms and leaned backward, descending into the wind, resembling a falling eagle.
