The King's Game

Ch110 – [Mermaid XXVIII]

Yan Lin’s side responded quickly to curb the rumors. On the afternoon when the negative news spread, Yan Lin called for a press conference.

The Yan family was also massive. Holding a press conference of their own initiative like this naturally attracted numerous media to squeeze their heads and come first to dig for news.

It was definitely big news in the business circle that the Yan family was taking the initiative to hold a press conference, which would definitely be of great reporting value. All the reporters gathered at the press conference were now in high spirits, waiting intently for those on the stage to speak.

The face of the person on the stage was extremely cold and handsome. No matter the face or the profile, one could not pick out a flaw. His thin lips were pressed together, which made one feel that his lips were also as handsome as his eyes.

Although it had been known for a long time, all the reporters present couldn’t help sighing over the handsomeness of the head of the Yan family. This was also a well-known thing in the business world. Such a big winner in life made them feel unconvinced.

Waiting for him to speak, they did not expect that Yan Lin, who was widely watched on the stage, did not intend to speak at this time, but brought a dark-haired young man to the stage in front of everyone.

Originally, the reporters were stuck for a while because of their somewhat too intimate attitude. Then, when they saw the face of the youth who was being led in, the reporters who had recovered faster completely froze in place.

Was this ...???

As a well-known actor at present, the popularity of the youth in China was not low. People in all circles had heard more or less about him, not to mention journalists engaged in the news industry.

And then, a more stunning scene appeared. The Yan family leader, whose face was always filled with abstinence and coldness, who never said a word, directly, in front of so many reporters and media, turned his head and pecked the young man’s lips.

All the people present remained speechless for a long time.

This question was completely beyond the outline.... In a state of shock, the reporters almost threw all the equipment they brought to the ground with their shaking hands. Even now, they didn’t know which key point they should grasp first.

“As you can see, the purpose of the press conference held by the Yan family today is to make public the relationship between the leader and the young master. I hope that the false rumors can be stopped.” Ao Qi, who was responsible for explaining the situation to the media, rarely looked so serious. “Please delete the untrue statements that have been published as soon as possible, otherwise Yan family will investigate the identity of the rumor maker according to the situation to hold them responsible.”

After all, there were too many explosive points in this news. They even had to work overtime today——

As soon as the breaking news came out, it was conceivable what kind of waves it caused.

Cookie: “It’s not a gold master, it’s a lover. Which gold master do you see that will expose a relationship with the lover they keep??? He’s the head of the Yan family. I think he has enough status. If he didn’t really like him, how could he open up that he has a same-sex lover, think about it? [laughing and crying]”

Baobao Bear: “It’s beautiful... This pair is very pleasing to the eye. People who use homosexuality as an attack point should not go too low. There is nothing wrong with liking people of the same sex.”

The rumor-mongers who said that the young man had a gold owner and the speculation that the gold owner must have a horrible appearance were all silent now. The former should be ignored for the time being while the latter... They could no longer say the word “ugly” in the face of the pictures of Yan Lin in the news.

Even if each person’s aesthetic was different, the cold and handsome face of the man in the picture was absolutely impossible to have anything to do with ugly characters.

After news broke about him being a homosexual, Gu Huai’s acting career was not actually affected much. What was more, his fans also added a considerable amount of CP powder for no reason. This result was unexpected to all.

The photos taken and released were investigated on the same day. It was one of the housekeepers working at the Yan residence. After asking for the required information, the staff member was dismissed on the same day.

“The same person ...” Gu Huai bowed his head and thought slightly. Last time when a team deliberately bashed him online, the Yan family also investigated the team, but the information they could find was limited.

But this time, those behind the scenes did not seem to want to hide their identities at all, so the Yan family could easily find out. The employer was the same person, this was what the system said when the Yan family came back to report the situation.

In less than ten minutes after this, Gu Huai received a new message on his cell phone.

It was a strange number. The content of the information made Gu Huai freeze. The above clearly wrote The King’s Game and the world he was in. The sender gave a place and said he hoped to meet him.

“System ...?” This should be a competitor participating in the game together, or some other person of any status. His system had not mentioned this kind of situation, and Gu Huai knew nothing about it.

“It is an outside intervener who does not meet the conditions for participation.” After a few moments, the system had some reservations and only mentioned the parts that it could inform the youth at present.

The location was at the park in the center of the city, a public place. Gu Huai looked down at this information and thought about it. He actually had made a decision in his mind.

“I’ll go and meet them then.” Gu Huai said to his system.

The other party dared to expose his identity easily this time, and took the initiative to send him this message. In contrast, Gu Huai would not be afraid of this meeting. Meet, be frank and open, and find out what the other had against him.

After a long time of hesitation, the system finally responded with a low voice. Compared with a hidden enemy, the enemy who jumped out of the open was undoubtedly better to deal with. In terms of the current resource advantages of youth in the face of the world, the system did not think that the interference and obstruction of the “enemy” could have any impact on the clearance results.

“Qiong Qi.... Is Ah Huai going to see him? ” Yan Lin could easily recognize the identity of the employer. The other had not changed his appearance in human form, so he knew as soon as he saw the information reported to him by his subordinates.

Qiong Qi was one of the four fierce beasts in the world, but it was not the same one from ancient times, only a descendant. It was also called Qiong Qi, but the other’s ability was not as strong as its ancestors.

It was not clear why the other was targeting the youth. Yan Lin’s position was very clear. He would only take the latter’s side.

Gu Huai did not show his lover the contents of the text message, but told him about the matter. Naturally, Yan Lin chose to accompany him.

There were many tourists in Central Park. The next day, Gu Huai arrived at the meeting place as promised. By the time he arrived, the sender had been waiting here. He was a young looking man.

Qiong Qi whose pseudonym in the human society was He Yi. The two sides just met at this moment. There was no smoke, they only looked at each other.

“I’ve wanted to see you since a long time ago.” He didn’t pay attention to Yan Lin, who was next to the youth. He said the first sentence to the youth in front of him.

At the beginning, he did not have the opportunity to meet the youth. Later, there were countless planes in the world, and it was not easy for him to find the plane world that the system would arrange for the youth to go to, but he found it anyway.

This was their first formal meeting.

Gu Huai did not make a sound, calmly looking at the person who had troubled him several times, and he wanted to hear what he was going to say to him. But Yan Lin squinted and glanced coldly at him.

Somewhat surprisingly, the other person did not tell him anything, but asked him a question: “What criteria should the ‘rules’ meet first?”

“Fair and just.” Gu Huai gave a brief and comprehensive response, which was also his real inner thought.

In response to the young man’s reply, he nodded approvingly. “Yes, this is the most basic condition for establishment.”

“I gave up this world.” He Yu seemed to say this very lightly. When he said this, he turned his eyes to Yan Lin, who was beside the youth. It was his fault that he didn’t prepare for how the other would preserve his feelings by self-mutilation.

In the next sentence, he showed his hidden malice to the youth for the first time. He said with a smile: “In the next world, I have set up a better stage.”

Although the system allowed the youth to randomly select the world, in fact the world that had been arranged in advance was a fixed one. The former only allowed the latter to select one among several options.

Gu Huai accepted all the malice shown to him by the opposite person, his expression remaining unchanged. Even if the other’s malice ran deep without end, Gu Huai could still bear it, because he had a reason to win the game.

In the worlds he experienced in the past, there were people who insisted on waiting for him because of his sudden departure. He wanted to go back and draw a full end to the life in those worlds one by one.

“The “king” has the power to create rules, you know that.” The park’s tourists around them seemed to be unable to see that such a large living person was gradually disappearing into a virtual shadow. He Yi dispelled his body and said this sentence to the youth in front of him in a declarative tone.

Gu Huai didn’t respond yet. He heard the last words of the other before the other party’s body completely collapsed and disappeared.

“The first king created a monster with love for him.”
