Chapter 130 Gray Hooded Sweatshirt
A mix of secret joy, excitement, and other emotions that made his head buzz.
Mu Yuanming is not short of money, and he doesn't care whether the role is well-received or attracts many fans. He is happy just thinking about how Yan Xun would be unhappy and sad because he took the role from him.
He sounded like he had some mental issues. Mu Yuanming leaned against the pillow and thought to himself that he felt like he had been split into two people.
One version of myself is soberly examining the past, while the other is confused and doesn't understand why I did what I did.
Could it be because he dislikes Yan Xun for being a relative?
Mu Yuanming questioned himself in his heart, because he hated that Yan Xun was a relative and therefore hoped that the other party would suffer a big fall.
He seems to be the most common kind of bad guy, the kind who can't stand seeing others do well.
Even when he saw the ring on Yan Xun's finger, he could recall some of the reasons why he bought it in the first place.
Rumors about the group's sister-in-law are rampant. He knows that Yan Xun likes this brand, and many of his fans also buy products from this brand along with him.
Rings can be worn as wedding bands or stacked accessories.
Mu Yuanming did this on purpose. He didn't hesitate to abandon the safer option of a necklace and instead chose a ring. It seemed that he wanted to deliberately steer the rumors about his sister-in-law onto Yan Xun, and he would find it interesting to see him and Song Baiyuan in such a mess later.
It would be best if Yan Xun could leave this group; it would be best if this group were to be completely destroyed.
When Mu Yuanming realized that his past self had thought this way, even he was startled by the darkness in his heart.
He didn't even understand where his malice towards Yan Xun came from.
The moment Mu Yuan saw Yan Xun at the hospital, he knew that his feelings were not simply hatred and loathing for those with connections; he was filled with both hatred and jealousy, as if it would be best if Yan Xun disappeared from everyone's sight.
"What was our relationship like before?" Mu Yuanming suddenly asked Yan Xun, who was sitting next to him.
He was worried that his acting wasn't good enough and that Yan Xun would see through his true emotions. Unexpectedly, Yan Xun just looked at him for a while and then smiled, "Just kidding."
How could you possibly hate me?
"right?"
Yan Xun seemed oblivious to Mu Yuanming's sudden, uncontrollable emotions following the car accident, and showed Mu Yuanming the chat history on her phone.
There was even a chat in the group where Mu Yuanming asked about the souvenir gift.
Mu Yuanming suddenly felt guilty.
He knew his own wicked intentions, which made him even more confused as to why he only acted this way towards Yan Xun.
Was he really such a bad person? Mu Yuanming questioned himself inwardly, his gaze involuntarily returning to the movie playing on the computer.
The plot has now progressed to the point where the protagonist discovers that the office worker was also a former member of the study group.
When Mu Yuanming saw Yan Xun, the office worker, he became even more silent.
Although it was shown very subtly in the movie, Mu Yuanming was certain that the character he played probably liked Yan Xun. He didn't care about his own life or death, he only wanted Yan Xun to be able to complete his revenge. Even if he died, he wanted Yan Xun to step on his back and climb the ladder to victory.
He's different from the real him.
Mu Yuanming thought.
At the end of the movie, Yan Xun's office worker character chooses a similar way of dying as Mu Yuanming.
When the protagonist burned the photo of the two of them when they were young, Mu Yuanming, watching from outside the screen, felt a strange sense of joy. "This is a good ending," he couldn't help but say to Yan Xun.
Yan Xun adopted an expression of being all ears.
Mu Yuanming, of course, would not reveal his true thoughts, but instead gave a hypocritical answer.
“They all got their revenge, so I think it’s a good ending.”
Yan Xun nodded, seemingly unconcerned about his answer.
This made Mu Yuanming unhappy again. As if he had forgotten that he was injured, he accidentally bumped his cast-up arm against the bed.
He let out a cry of pain, but to his surprise, Yan Xun only glanced at him.
Is the computer not broken?
Yan Xun took the computer away and checked the screen. "Luckily, the screen is fine."
As if remembering something, he took off the ring that Mu Yuanming had brought him and placed it on his desk, saying, "I forgot to mention."
"Actually, I don't really like wearing rings that much."
Mu Yuanming looked at the ring placed on the table. "I thought you were fairly satisfied."
"I'm tired of seeing it," Yan Xun said.
He walked back, put the computer on his side, lay down on the bed and started playing on his phone, not knowing what was on the phone that fascinated him so much.
"Mu Yuanming, do you remember what the ending of the game you played yesterday was?" Yan Xun suddenly asked.
"What was the ending?"
"After failing to complete the mission, the crazed character dismembered the victim and hid the body in the cellar."
"Are we playing a horror game?" Mu Yuanming asked, as he couldn't recall what Yan Xun had mentioned about the game.
"No, it's a dating game."
Yan Xun glanced at Mu Yuanming and said, "You're actually quite good at understanding how to win over a character."
"What do I understand about him?" Mu Yuanming didn't understand what he could understand about this character.
"you say……"
Yan Xun recalled Mu Yuanming's reaction yesterday when he got that ending.
He wasn't discouraged; he just stared at the CG in silence for a while and then said, "This ending isn't bad either."
"What's so good about it?!" He Jingtang said, unable to understand.
Yan Xun repeated Mu Yuanming's words, "No one wants the person they like to be admired by someone else forever."
Yan Xun said to Mu Yuanming, "That's what you said."
Mu Yuanming frowned, as if he couldn't believe he would say such a thing—but deep down he knew it was true, that's what he really thought.
"There's no need to dismember them and hide them in the cellar," Mu Yuanming said, as if he couldn't agree with the ending of the game.
Yan Xun looked at Mu Yuanming with even more astonishment, as if he were looking at some alien creature.
"You said... living people can run away."
"Dead people are the safest."
Mu Yuanming couldn't believe he had said those words; he felt Yan Xun was lying to him.
Even if he really thought that way, he would never say it.
"You don't believe me?" Yan Xun asked.
"I don't think I'm that abnormal," Mu Yuanming nodded.
“Indeed, because I was lying to you,” Yan Xun said. “You didn’t say that dead people are the safest.”
But Yan Xun knew that was Mu Yuanming's true thought.
Just like when he asked Mu Yuanming if he hated him, he glimpsed a bit of the emotions deep in Mu Yuanming's heart.
—Mu Yuanming seems to genuinely dislike him.
He recalled his bizarre death that night.
Could it be that it wasn't He Jinchun who poisoned him, but Mu Yuanming? Yan Xun pondered, but how exactly did the other party manage to do it?
Wait a minute...
Yan Xun stood up and walked to the pile of clothes that Mu Yuanming hadn't had time to clean up.
The item on top of this pile of clothes is the gray hooded sweatshirt that the other person wore when they returned to their dorm that day.
Could it be that Mu Yuanming was the one who stabbed him backstage at the show?
