【100】 Publicizing the Romance: Let Me Introduce You, This Is My Boyfriend
This post didn’t explicitly mention anything bad about Wen Ran, and the writing style was quite good; one could tell effort had been put into it.
It included some details of how he and Wen Ran got along.
The comments section below had already exploded.
[You say you are, so you are? Do you have evidence?]
[Have to say, it’s written quite sincerely. If this is a delusional male fan of Dawn, this writing is truly impressive.]
[No way, Dawn really likes men?]
[Heavens, he really loved him. He actually ran out to find matches to play just to give the other person a computer.]
[So compatible!]
[I’m shipping this CP first.]
[Dawn really is a very sincere kid. I originally thought he was cold-hearted and unfeeling, but it turns out he’s so sincere to people. Being his partner must be so happy!]
[I really didn’t expect Dawn to find someone outside the circle. He loves games and the arena so much, yet he found someone who doesn’t touch games at all. It seems to be true love!]
[I refuse, I don’t believe it. Dawn hasn’t gone public all this time just to protect him, right? What is he trying to do by coming out and saying these things now?]
[Be bolder. Maybe they broke up?]
[According to the usual routine, now comes the hammer (evidence) dropping.]
[Waiting for more posts.]
Wen Ran felt something was wrong when he saw that ID, and now he understood.
It must be Li Hao!
“Dawn, I just want to ask, are you and him… really dating?” Brother Wu struggled for a long time but still spoke up. “I know some things don’t need me to say them, and this is your private matter after all, but Wind, he…”
Brother Wu and Jiang Yan had always been good friends and brothers, and their relationship was good. He also knew about the relationship between Jiang Yan and Wen Ran, but since he saw they hadn’t gone public, he hadn’t pointed it out.
But now Wen Ran’s “boyfriend” was causing such a huge wave in the Super Topic. It was already on the trending search. If it fermented any further, Wind would definitely see it.
Brother Wu composed himself, gritted his teeth, and said it: “Wind really likes you. The twenty-seven million for your transfer, Wind paid for it.”
This huge news shocked Wen Ran so much he couldn’t believe his ears. “What did you say?”
“My transfer… Wind paid the money?”
“Yes,” Brother Wu said. “At that time, WK did intend to try you out, but the listing price was too high. We had originally planned to give up, but then Wind found me.”
“He asked if I wanted you to come to the team and told me that as long as you passed the tryouts, he would pay all the money.”
“You know what happened after that.”
Wen Ran clenched his fists tightly. Indescribable emotions surged in his heart. Originally, he had lost hope back then, but he didn’t expect WK to extend an olive branch. At that time, he was in the middle of breaking up with Jiang Yan. Because he misunderstood the matter with Mu Yan, his mood was low, and his life was a desolate darkness. WK’s tryout message gave him hope again. But Wen Ran never imagined that it was actually Jiang Yan who paid the money!
And in such a way!
Even after the two reconciled, Jiang Yan hadn’t mentioned this matter a single time, as if it had never happened.
It turned out that in places he didn’t know, Jiang Yan’s love was not little at all.
“Dawn, if it were other negative news, the PR department would suppress it first thing. But this is your private matter, so we still have to ask for your opinion.”
Brother Wu didn’t mention his relationship with Wind, but Wen Ran knew clearly that he mostly told him about the transfer fee because of that.
Wen Ran suddenly figured it out. Before, he didn’t dare mention his relationship with Jiang Yan in front of others. But Jiang Yan loved him so much; what reason did he have to continue being cowardly?
He wanted to be brave, a little braver.
“Brother Wu, thank you for telling me this.” Wen Ran said, “I will solve this matter myself. I have nothing to do with him now.”
“I like Wind. The partner I mentioned in my Weibo last time is also Wind.”
Receiving Wen Ran’s affirmative answer, the stone suspended in Brother Wu’s heart finally fell.
“Okay, then handle it yourself first. If you encounter any issues, remember to contact me.”
Only then did Wen Ran open that Weibo post. He couldn’t rely on Jiang Yan for everything. He clicked on Li Hao’s homepage and found that this person had actually posted several Weibo posts, but the one just now had the highest heat and most comments, so it was pushed to the top.
Li Hao’s latest Weibo post carried a tone of playing the victim:
[Ran Ran and I were originally a very good couple. We would eat noodles together and go to the movies together. Although our education levels were different, getting along was very comfortable. I really loved him. In my eyes, Ran Ran was the cutest boy in the world.]
[Later, he went to play professionally, and I stayed locally for university. Our contact gradually became much less frequent. Often, I would send him several messages, and he would reply with one sentence a few days later. Maybe Ran Ran was very busy. I could only suppress my longing and didn’t dare to send him messages anymore, fearing he would find me annoying. Later on, whenever I messaged him, Ran Ran wouldn’t reply to a single one. Calling his phone didn’t work either. Maybe the wind from D City ultimately couldn’t blow to B City. He also felt I wasn’t good enough for him. I’m an outsider to the circle and don’t understand these things. I only know that maybe I did something wrong, and my Ran Ran doesn’t want to pay attention to me anymore.]
[Until a chance opportunity, I saw the professional player Dawn, and saw the Weibo post he made saying his relationship with his partner was stable.]
[He never explicitly broke up with me, so can I selfishly believe that his partner is still me?]
Li Hao was in the literature club at school, so his writing skills were quite good. In just a few words, he crafted an image of himself as a victim, distorting the facts and pushing Wen Ran directly to the forefront of the storm.
Wen Ran had quite a few anti-fans in the Alliance. There were plenty of people who hated him, wishing for him to crash and burn quickly, and ultimately be banned from competing!
Therefore, with all kinds of fueling and public opinion support, #Dawn Scumbag was pushed onto the trending search.
[I really misjudged him. He looks so well-behaved, yet he actually abandoned his boyfriend.]
[Tsk tsk tsk, I said it long ago. This kind of person isn’t suitable to stan. He got cocky just after winning one championship.]
[Just stringing the person along, cold violence instead of mentioning a breakup?]
[Truly disgusting. I’m willing to call this the big melon (scandal) of the new season!]
[Of course he wouldn’t go public. After all, many of his fans are girls. If he reveals he’s gay, how can he suck money from the girlfriend fans?]
[Please use your brain when speaking. If he wanted to suck money from girlfriend fans, why did he say he had a partner?]
[You can’t determine Dawn is a scumbag just based on his one-sided story, right?]
[Exactly. Anyone can write a short essay. What does this prove?]
[Laughing to death. The guy came out to drop the hammer, what else is there to say?]
[I’m really speechless about this person. He really plays around!]
[Toxic tumor fans truly live up to their reputation. A person like Dawn is rotten from the roots. Scumbag, disgusting!]
[Get out of WK! The other teammates are truly unlucky to be stuck with him!]
[That’s enough. He posts a short essay and you guys come over to insult Dawn. Dawn hasn’t even responded yet.]
[His surfing speed is so fast; usually, he would have retorted against netizens eight hundred times in the comments section by now. Why hasn’t he come out to respond yet? Probably has a guilty conscience, right?]
Before this netizen could refresh to the next comment after sending the message, a notification showed that he had received a reply.
The bright red ‘V’ and the professional player verification made him involuntarily rub his eyes.
[WK.Dawn: Guilty my ass! Do you go crazy if you don’t get scolded for a day? Don’t rush, your Daddy is coming.]
[Today’s Happiness: Yo, still dare to come out, scumbag? Abandoning him after toying with him. Pui, disgusting!]
[WK.Dawn: Mr. Know-It-All, you know everything again? Did you see me scum him? If neither your eyes nor your brain work well, hurry to the hospital to register. Don’t delay the treatment!]
[Coffee Without Sugar: Dead scumbag. Pity such a good boy, you actually treated him like this!]
[WK.Dawn: What brand of plastic bag are you, so good at pretending? Showing such great compassion after reading a short essay for two minutes. A stinking loach gets a little seawater and really thinks it’s seafood. If it really doesn’t work out, you get together with him. Whatever pot matches whatever lid.]
[I’m Invincible You Be Casual: Really don’t know how a person like this is worthy of entering WK. Plays the game so trashy, always getting carried, and is a scumbag too. Finally crashed and burned! WK might as well have bought me.]
[WK.Dawn: Buy you? Sorry, our club doesn’t do charity. If you really want to find a place, you might as well circle the entrance of the stray dog shelter twice. Maybe they’ll keep you to watch the door.]
After Wen Ran personally entered the fray, the development of the matter became even more uncontrollable. Moreover, his combat power seemed exceptionally astonishing today. He sprayed quite a few netizens single-handedly, and the Little Roses also shouldered their keyboards one after another to come help him.
Li Hao had been staring at Wen Ran’s updates and saw him chasing netizens to retort on the trending search. Li Hao felt a little guilty.
This was different from what he had envisioned. He originally thought this would trap Wen Ran in public opinion, or at least force Wen Ran to speak to him. As long as he could contact him, there was still a chance for everything.
But this Wen Ran—not only had his temper and personality not changed a bit, but how had they intensified?
However, Wen Ran only retorted against netizens and hadn’t replied to him directly yet. It should be fine.
He definitely still had feelings for him; otherwise, he wouldn’t be like this.
Li Hao was just planning to drink a mouthful of water to calm his mood. His hand slipped and refreshed the page, and he saw the latest Weibo post Wen Ran had sent.
[Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend @WK.Wind. Currently, the relationship is stable. I hope certain people can have some shame and stop trying to associate with me. If you can’t control yourself, use a rope to leash yourself. If you really want to climb the social ladder with Daddy, you can pay back the money you owe first.]
