Transmigration of Mian [Reluctantly] Becomes His Man [Wife]

V5: 215 – Settling the Previous Accounts

The next day, Qin Mian received a call from the crew asking him to take Lei Ruilin to the begin-shooting ceremony. This was Lei Ruilin’s big day. Qin Mian’s family of four appeared together in new clothes.

Chen Yue’s begin-shooting ceremony was simple and solemn. He and the assistant director spoke a few sentences respectively. After offering a stick of incense, everyone worshiped, and the begin-shooting ceremony was considered over.

“Heart Caution” was a commercial film. The so-called commercial film was precisely a film for the highest purpose of earning box office’s revenue that catered to the masses’s preferences and appreciation standard. The male lead, Chen Haolong, which was the role of Tuan Tuan’s elder brother, was currently the popular celebrity, Lin Xiang. He was not only handsome in appearance, but also first-class in acting. Because of Lin Xiang’s tight schedule, the first day of shooting was mainly for his part. It was not time for Tuan Tuan to appear yet, but Xiao Zhou suggested that Lei Ruilin stay on the set. While he could find the feeling of acting, he could also learn from his senior’s experiences in filming.

Lei Ruilin accepted his suggestion very willingly. His forthright attitude attracted many adults to be very fond of him.

Qin Mian, Lei Tie, and Qin Ruiqi still stayed to accompany him.

“Heart Caution” was a science fiction film. The story took place in the futuristic world. It was about a scientist who, after years of crazy research, had discovered an equation that could enhance a human’s intelligence and physical strength by tampering with genes. He stored the equation in a special microchip. The microchip fell into the hands of acrobat Chen Haolong by accident, which led to a battle between Chen Haolong and a dark organization to seize the microchip. The film would combine a variety of commercial factors, such as popular movie stars, well-known directors, complex special effects, large investment, large-scale publicity, and so on. It could be predicted that it would once again set a high box office. Tuan Tuan appeared many times. According to the number of scenes, he was the third male lead in the film.

The first scene was relatively simple; it was the scene of Chen Haolong and the senior fellow apprentice of the acrobatic troupe making all manner of quips and jokes while comparing notes on skill.

With the guidance of a martial arts director, Lin Xiang passed this scene on first take. It could be considered as a warm-up.

Since Lei Ruilin was a child and a newcomer, it would not be good to get close to the director to watch the shooting effect on the screen. Qin Mian enlarged the screen with spiritual conjuration, making it like a projection in the air. Only he, Lei Tie, Qin Ruiqi, and Lei Ruilin could see it clearly.

With his superb acting skills, Lin Xiang has transformed from a big star with elegant temperament into Chen Haolong. In Lei Ruilin’s eyes, he was very novel and admired.

The second scene was the acrobatic performance of the acrobatic troupe. Because Lin Xiang often received scripts from different roles, he knew some martial arts skills, but he was not competent for acrobatic performance. Therefore, the real actor on the stage was the stuntman. Lin Xiang sat on the side to rest. His agent and assistant were around to take care of him. The agent took out a mobile phone and passed it to him, while the assistant handed him a towel and water.

Lei Ruilin and his Gege were whispering to each other.

Lei Ruilin did not have work on the first two days. Lei Tie put aside the matter of starting a career for the time being. Starting from the next day, he would take Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin to the set.

Qin Mian wanted to investigate what happened here after he transmigrated to Great Xia from the modern era. When he returned to the modern era, he pretended to be “Qin Mian’s good friend” and called the Qin family. It was confirmed that the original him was “unaccounted for” in the modern era. Qin Yongcheng suspected that he had an accident outside and called the police, but the police investigation had not made any progress so far.

Qin Mian couldn’t help but wonder if Qin Lian burnt his body to destroy the evidence after killing him.

Qin Mian already didn’t care about the people and affairs of the Qin family. But since Heaven let him return to the modern era, maybe there was an ordinance in the dark. When he thought that Qin Lian was still living comfortably off after trying to murder him, he felt ill at ease. Qin Lian did something wrong, so he should bear the consequences.

In fact, the story of Qin Mian’s mother and father was a very common case. Qin Mian’s mother went to work in a big city when she was young. The 17-year-old girl was young and naive. She was bewildered by Qin Mian’s father Qin Yongcheng’s sweet words and easily handed over her heart to him.

The Qin family was a business family. Qin Yongcheng’s father, Qin Aiguo, had a low sperm survival rate. Thus, he only bore an only son, Qin Yongcheng. The Qin family appeared to be weak in the business upsurge. Qin Yongcheng’s father naturally wanted to have his son marry with another business family. Qin Mian’s mother was pretty and pure. Qin Yongcheng did like her a little and had thought of marrying her. However, he liked the Qin family’s industry more. Knowing that his marriage partner was the eldest daughter of the Mo family, he agreed to the marriage without much hesitation. When Qin Mian’s mother heard the news, she finally saw Qin Yongcheng’s true face. She didn’t dare to tell him about her pregnancy and left secretly. But in the end, Qin Yongcheng had hurt her heart, and thereby hurt her body. Not long after Qin Mian was born, she died.

Qin Mian grew up with his maternal grandparents. When he was 15 years old, his grandparents’ health had worsened. They were worried about him and took the initiative to contact Qin Yongcheng. After Qin Yongcheng confirmed that Qin Mian was his son, he took him back to the Qin family.

Not long after Qin Yongcheng married the Mo Family’s eldest daughter Mo Feifei, she gave birth to a son, and that was Qin Lian. Qin Lian was only one year younger than Qin Mian.

Because Mo Feifei pampered Qin Lian, Qin Lian’s temperament was not very good. Qin Mian was brought up by his grandparents and was the son of Qin Yongcheng’s first love. After Qin Mian returned to the Qin family, Qin Yongcheng was quite good to Qin Mian. But no one thought that as Qin Mian and Qin Lian grew up, Qin Lian became more and more jealous of Qin Mian and more defensive, fearing that Qin Yongcheng would hand over the Qin family’s industry to Qin Mian. Ultimately, he still extended his crime and pushed Qin Mian down the stairs. Judging from his fierce strength, it was obviously not unintentional.

Qin Mian pulled his thoughts away from his memory and drove to the original scene of the accident — the villa that Qin Yongcheng gave him. From afar, he saw someone watering the flowers on the second floor of the villa. The villa had most probably been sold to others. He drove away and came to the Haoyuan Group Building, the Qin family’s company. He wanted to take a chance to see if he could see Qin Lian and gross him out at least.

There was no story without coincidences. After waiting for about three to four minutes, two people came out of the automatic rotating door on the first floor of the building. The person on the left was dressed in Western suits and leather shoes, looked pretentious with his head high and chest out, and had a contented look; that was Qin Lian. Walking next to him was an elegant-looking young woman with pear flower perm longhair, dressed in a desert-colored bodycon dress and stiletto heels which made the woman appear taller. From their occasional bumping shoulders, one could see that there was definitely an affair between them.

Qin Mian smiled meaningfully. He looked at his face in the mirror, which was almost the same as the original one. He opened the door and got out of the car. He put his hands in his pockets as he walked toward Qin Lian.

Qin Lian was talking and laughing with his secretary, Zhan Xiaomi when his eyes caught a glimpse of a man coming straight to his side. He cursed the man under his breath for not having eyes to look at where he was going. He frowned and looked up. When he saw the man’s face, he was shocked. He froze in place, feeling anxious and doubtful.

“Qin Mian?”

Qin Mian was still unsure that he was “missing” rather than “dead”, so he didn’t respond. He just stopped, looked at Qin Lian with a shadow of a smile, and pointedly glanced at Zhan Xiaomi with a profound attitude.

Qin Lian calmly sent Zhan Xiaomi away and looked at Qin Mian coldly, “Didn’t you run away from home? What are you doing back here?”

“You must be so surprised that I’m back.” Seeing that his expression did not look like he was lying, Qin Mian patted him on the shoulder with a smile. “Since you dared to push me down the stairs, you should have thought that one day I would come back for revenge.”

Qin Lian paled. He looked around warily and said in a low voice, “What are you talking about? That’s you who wasn’t careful and rolled down the stairs!” At that time, he did plan to get rid of Qin Mian. But he must plan it thoroughly first by taking himself out and then do it, rather than doing it rashly. So, at that time when he pushed Qin Mian down the stairs, he was so shocked. Upon seeing the blood flowing steadily on Qin Mian’s forehead, he was spooked out of his mind and his first reaction was to run away. When he came to his senses, it was the next morning. In the evening, he made up his mind to see if Qin Mian was dead or not. When he entered the villa, Qin Mian had disappeared. Even the pool of blood on the ground disappeared, leaving no trace. Up to now, Qin Lian was still a little flustered.

Qin Mian didn’t know about the follow-up story. With a knowing expression, he said, “That’s how you comfort yourself in the past two years, so you didn’t have nightmares?”

“Don’t talk nonsense.” Qin Lian couldn’t see through his smile. He felt guilty, but he had to guard against Qin Yongcheng’s sudden appearance. Even if he tried to restrain it, his irritability still leaked on his face. “Let me tell you, Daddy has decided to leave the Qin family to me. Whatever your plans are, it’s only your wishful thinking!”

“Where have your mind gone to?” Qin Mian replied ambiguously. “Give me both your and his phone numbers.”

Qin Lian was very clear that if Qin Mian wanted to contact Qin Yongcheng, he could not stop it at all. He could only tell the phone numbers to him.

“What do you want to do?”

“What? No confidence in yourself?” Qin Mian was amused. The mobile phone in his pocket rang, and the call showed “Poker Face”. He put on a warm smile on his lips, “A-Tie… Me? Outside, running into an ‘old friend’ and chatting a bit… How did Ruilin do? Okay… I’ll go back now.”

After the end of the call, he waved to Qin Lian smartly, “I’ve something to do, I’m leaving first. We’ll have a meal some other day.”

Qin Lian’s face was as heavy as water. He watched coldly as Qin Mian’s vigorous SUV went farther and farther after he got in the car.

“Ding~ding~dong…”

The mobile phone rang. As soon as Qin Lian glanced at it, he quickly put a decent smile on his cold face. “Young Master Yue, why are you calling me today?”

“What’s your plan for Young Master Liu’s birthday next month?” Yue Xiangkui’s voice sounded utterly carefree.

Qin Lian gave a wry smile as his eyes showed a trace of contempt, but his tone was still very gentle, “Young Master Liu is not an easy master to serve. I don’t have any idea about it yet. Let’s meet and talk about it?”

“Okay, at the old place.”

Qin Lian quickly got in the car, slammed the door, and sped out, leaving only a cloud of exhaust smoke.
