Chapter 70- Let Others Know You Are In A Relationship

 

A wrap-up press conference turned into Qin Lu’s retirement press conference.

 

The happiest thing was the media at the press conference. In fact, they had received some gossip in the past two years that Qin Lu was going to retire from acting, but it was never confirmed.

 

Then it suddenly came out that Qin Lu had accepted Cheng Qinghua’s new movie. So everyone thought that Qin Lu’s resignation was a rumor, so everyone gradually didn’t take it to heart.

 

Unexpectedly, at such an ordinary and simple wrap-up press conference, Qin Lu suddenly announced that Paradise would be his last movie, and he would retire after the filming of this movie.

 

After a moment of shock, the media at the scene reacted with surprise and excitement because now they were equivalent to getting first-hand news.

 

The originally orderly press conference became chaotic in an instant. Media reporters scrambled to ask questions, and people in the same industry began to report the news to their colleagues so that they could grab the first chance to announce it.

 

“Mr. Qin, do you mean the kind of retirement that is indefinite or  will you never really come back?”

 

“Mr. Qin, what prompted you to make this sudden decision?”

 

“I heard that you left the circle two years ago. Is the car accident related to this incident?”

 

Seeing that the scene seemed to be getting out of control, the host hurriedly announced the end of the press conference, and the maintenance staff on the scene also stood up and blocked the reporters while the rest escorted the crew to leave.

 

The press conference ended with Qin Lu dropping a blockbuster, but the shock on the Internet had just begun.

 

[It’s fake. Qin Lu’s new movie has just finished filming, and such rumors are spreading. ]

 

[I don’t believe that the male god will withdraw from the circle. Just you all wait for the rumors to be refuted. ]

 

[Nowadays, celebrities have no lower limit to making their movies popular. I thought Qin Lu was not this kind of person, but I didn’t expect that even he couldn’t be an exception to this rule.]

 

[It’s just hype for the release of the new movie. If you don’t believe me, wait and see. The official will soon clear that this is a rumor. 】

 

[With Qin Lu’s current fame and status, does he still need hype? Use your fingernails to think about it.]

 

Backstage, everyone was looking at Qin Lu, who caused the earthquake in the entertainment industry. The other party seemed unaffected at all as he was still with his calm demeanor.

 

Meanwhile, Cheng Qinghua’s expression was a little numb. He was hit before the press conference, but he didn’t expect that the person who hit him would give him another stimulus.

 

“Qin Lu, are you really planning to quit the circle?” An old actor broke the silence and asked curiously. He played the role of Qin Lu’s boss in the play. The two had worked together before and had a good relationship.

 

Qin Lu reached into his pocket and stretched out inside again. When he didn’t find anything, and said calmly, “Well, I really intend to.”

 

“That’s right, you said it in front of all the media reporters.” If you didn’t really plan to quit the circle, Qin Lu would not say these words in public. “It’s a pity, you are still so young now.”

 

Qin Lu’s acting skills are better than many people. And the most important thing is that he is only thirty years old. Many people have just started to gain attention at this age, but he has to retire at the peak.

 

“It’s not a pity.” There was a smile in Qin Lu’s eyes, and Jiang Liucheng’s figure was reflected in his pupils, “I have found a higher pursuit than acting.”

 

Although he didn’t name his name, Jiang Liucheng had a feeling that the other party was talking about him.

 

He saw the seriousness in Qin Lu’s eyes, as if their blind date was a very important matter to him.

 

The old opera bone subconsciously asked: “Is there a higher pursuit than acting?”

 

Qin Lu nodded calmly: “Of course, isn’t solving major life issues such as romance a higher pursuit in life?”

 

Everyone has not had time to digest the resignation he announced just now. And yet, the declaration was hit by another blockbuster, that everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

 

If this news is released, it will definitely not be smaller than the earthquake caused by Qin Lu’s declaration of quitting the circle just now.

 

Cheng Qinghua only felt that the first and the second surprise was already big enough to shake his world. He originally thought that the stimulation of one or two was enough, but who knew there would be a third one too.

 

He was really afraid that Qin Lu would say something shocking again, so he hurriedly sent everyone away. When there were only a few people left in the room, he made sure that no one was eavesdropping outside.

 

“My God, do you know how shocking the words you said at the press conference today will cause? You have just come back, and yet you’re already confirming that you’re going to quit the entertainment circle. Are you being serious?”

 

Seeing that there were no outsiders, Qin Lu directly pulled Jiang Liucheng to sit on the sofa. He held his hand, raised one leg and said, “Did I look like I was joking?”

 

Cheng Qinghua knew what he was like, and if he had said it in front of so much media, he would have basically made a decision. If he wants to withdraw from the circle, there is no room for return.

 

“Besides, you should be happy when I announce my retirement. After all, Paradise is my last movie.” Qin Lu said with a smile. His last movie before retiring will definitely attract many people to watch it, and the box office is basically guaranteed. As long as the quality is good, the box office will be higher.

 

“Fart.” Cheng Qinghua scolded, “Am I that kind of person? But what you said is indeed reasonable, and the other investors will definitely be overjoyed.”

 

From the very beginning, his cell phone has been ringing, and he doesn’t even need to look to know who is calling.

 

Apart from friends, most of the calls were from a few investors, who wanted to know if Qin Lu really wanted to quit the entertainment circle.

 

If so, the film’s box office will be stable. They have even thought up a follow-up publicity plan.

 

If not, there will be a little trouble. Netizens will feel that he is hyping the film. Once the popularity of passers-by is ruined, it will be detrimental to the movie’s box office.

 

Capital is so snobbish. There is no way, so he doesn’t want to take it at all, at least not now.

 

“Also,” Cheng Qinghua glanced at Jiang Liucheng next to him, “Is it true? The thing you said about solving life’s major issues? Are you joking with them?”

 

Qin Lu grabbed Jiang Liucheng’s hand and put it on his thigh, “Do you think I’m joking? I’m serious from the beginning to the end, but you don’t believe me.”

 

Cheng Qinghua asked Jiang Liucheng again after hearing the words: “Are you serious too?”

 

Jiang Liucheng raised his eyebrows suspiciously, “I’ve always been serious.”

 

Cheng Qinghua became more and more confused about the two people’s brain circuits, “So what exactly are you thinking?”

 

Jiang Liucheng: ” Didn’t you already say so already? We are on a blind date now. We would be dating after and then go to marriage. That is all.”

 

Qin Lu on the side nodded in agreement: “That’s right, that’s the process.”

 

Cheng Qinghua almost choked on his own saliva, “Marriage? Are you guys crazy or am I crazy?!”

 

He asked Qin Lu in disbelief, “So the reason why you quit the circle is to make it easier for you to marry Liucheng in the future?”

 

“You can also say that.” Qin Lu followed his words. Although he planned to quit the entertainment  circle two years ago, he has not announced it in public, and part of the reason is indeed hesitation. But since he confirmed his relationship with Jiang Liucheng, he has firmly decided to quit the circle.

 

Cheng Qinghua’s expression was a bit complicated, “I finally know why he had chosen you over me now, and I’m really not as good as you in this.”

 

 Qin Lu: “It’s good that you know. Don’t just send messages to my boyfriend in the future, if you have anything to ask, I can do it instead.”

 

Cheng Qinghua: “…”

 

If Cheng QInghua sends a message, you would just be too jealous, Qin Lu!

 

Qin Lv seemed to see what was going on in his heart, “If it wasn’t for respecting him, I would have asked him to delete you both in his phonebook and his life.”

 

Cheng Qinghua was speechless for a while and then felt very comfortable in his heart. After all, he was the reason behind the other party’s great jealousy. The bitter fruit of his life, he thought it was a cause for celebration.

 

At this time, Qin Lu’s cell phone rang.

 

His public retirement was completely random. When the news spread, Zhou Wenbin’s cell phone was blown up. It didn’t stop until just now, and he called right away.

 

However, Zhou Wenbin was not very surprised because he was one of the few people who knew that Qin Lu had thought of leaving the circle, and he was already mentally prepared.

 

It’s just that it has a great impact now, and fans and netizens are waiting for the exact news.

 

Especially the fans. Their male god finally accepted a movie after two years, they thought it was a comeback behavior to return to the public eye. Who knew that the male god would quit the circle after the movie was finished.

 

Zhou Wenbin called to confirm what he meant.

 

“Send it directly.” Qin Lu said to him.     

 

Zhou Wenbin didn’t ask any more after hearing this, “Okay, but do you still want to post it on your personal account?”

 

The star’s account is managed by the company,Qin Lu doesn’t really use it personally. It can be said to be a private account, which means that he has lived a bit like a zombie account in recent years because it only has a slight sign of resurrection because of Jiang Liucheng.

 

Just as everyone was waiting for the company to issue a statement on Qin Lv’s retirement, Zhou Wenbin’s Weibo was updated.

 

Zhou Wenbin: [Yes, Qin Lu has retired.]

 

Sparks Entertainment’s official Weibo did not make a statement. Qin Lu was not their artist anymore a few years ago already, but a shareholder, so Zhou Wenbin only explained on his own Weibo. Otherwise, more fans would ask about him. Just an hour later, his private messages were flooded.

 

[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ]

 

[I thought the male god was back, but who knew it would be the end. ]

 

[I’m crying. I always thought that the male god would always be in the entertainment industry.]

 

[Is the male god going behind the scenes? If it is behind the scenes, I will feel better. This means that I will still have the opportunity to meet the male god in the future. Can the manager ask? I really want to know. ]

 

[When the anti-fans said it was a rumor, for the first time, I hoped that what they said was true.]

 

Jiang Liucheng looked through the comments on Zhou Wenbin’s Weibo and said to Qin Lu: “Your fans really like you. One fan even asked you if you want to join the crew, at least for behind the camera.”

 

“Qiming Investment Company has always been behind the scenes.” Qin Lu played with his other hand. Jiang Liucheng’s hand is not as thin as a girl’s, but each finger is very slender. In Qin Lu’s eyes, they’re very beautiful.

 

Jiang Liucheng said: “They just want to know whether you will still participate in movie making. Do you want to respond?”

 

Qin Lu thought for a while, “I have walked all the way in these years. Although there have been bumps, but it has been smoother than many people. Indeed Fans’ support is indispensable, so let’s say goodbye and get me the phone.”

 

Jiang Liucheng leaned over and took his phone from the table, and handed it to him.

 

Qin Lu took the phone, opened his Weibo, edited a message, and sent it out.

 

Qin Lu: [Thank you to everyone who supported me until now. This is goodbye.]

 

Not long after Weibo was posted, a headline with the topic #Qin Lu: Thank You# became a hot search.

 

The retweets and likes of comments on Weibo also easily surpassed the popular traffic data. Fans were both happy and helpless when they saw him post on Weibo.

 

[Brother, you’ve retired from the circle, so how can we see you again? 】

 

[In the future, I will never see male gods again in the entertainment industry. I have no nostalgia for the entertainment industry anymore.]

 

[Goodbye, Emperor Qin. Does it mean that the male god will still be behind the scenes, and there will be a chance to meet again in the future? ]

 

Just when everyone thought the matter would be settled, Qin Lu’s reply appeared in the comment area.

 

Qin Lu: [I won’t participate even behind the scenes. I’ll be quitting my attachments to the entertainment industry completely. I am not your male god anymore.]

 

Qin Lu rarely replies to the comment area, so fans were surprised when they saw his reply in the comment section. In defense, some people mentioned his investment company.

 

Qiming Investment Company does participate in the investment of film and television dramas. If it is a business, it should be possible to see it in the entertainment industry.

 

Qin Lu replied to one of them: [I have handed over the management of Qiming Company to a professional team, and I will not directly participate behind the scenes.]

 

A fan asked angrily: [Then what are you going to do after quitting the circle? Enjoy the retirement life in advance?]

 

Qin Lu replied: [Inherit the family business and solve life’s major romance events, by the way.]

 

Outside, Cheng Qinghua was staring at a few young actors, “Although Qin Lu just mentioned that he is to solve life’s major romance issues, make sure not to tell anyone else. Pretend he didn’t say it or anything at all.”

 

A young actor held up his phone hesitantly, “But Director, Teacher Qin seems to have said it on Weibo already.”

 

Cheng Qinghua looked at it and rolled his eyes to the sky.

 

 Qin Lu forced it too much to let others know he is in a relationship!
