Legend of Love Lake

When Lin Qiwei came home from get off work, he felt that the atmosphere was not right as soon as he entered the door.Dad and mother sat in the living room with livid faces, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law sat around the two elders.Papa Lin pointed to a pile of photos scattered on the table: "Do you have anything to explain?" Lin Qiwei picked up the photos and looked at them, his heart turned cold, he swallowed, and finally managed to utter two words: "No .”

"Then what are these photos?"

Lin Qiwei thought for a moment, couldn't find a suitable lie, and decided to tell the truth: "Just like in the photo."

Papa Lin's voice became more serious every sentence: "What's that like?"

Paper can't hold fire, if you don't want to cover up this relationship for the rest of your life, why not just explain it.Lin Qiwei thought for a while and made up his mind: "I love him, and he loves me too."

"Ridiculous!" Papa Lin was furious, got up and scolded: "Two men, why do you love love? Are you still shameless?"

"I'm sorry! I know it's embarrassing for you to do this, but I just love him."

"What are you talking about?" Mother Lin also asked, "Why are you so stupid? Is there any reason in the world for men to love men?"

"A lot! You've seen the TV news reports."

As soon as those words came out, it was like detonating a land mine.Brother Lin hurriedly winked Lin Qiwei to shut up, but he could no longer contain Lin's father's anger: "Fart! What news? If this is normal, it won't be news. Being news means it's not normal! Do you want to be on TV too? ? Do you want to be in the news too? Isn’t it shameful enough?”

"I don't want to be on TV, and I don't feel ashamed. I just want to be with the people I like."

"Nonsense!" Papa Lin got even more angry, stepped forward and slapped his son twice, so hard that Lin Qiwei couldn't even stand still, and took a step back. "I forbid you to like men! Can you get married? Can you have children? Can you carry on the family line? You still don't admit it?"

Lin Qiwei said calmly, "I like him, what's wrong with that?"

"Bastard!" Father Lin turned his head and told Brother Lin, "Give me a stick!"

Brother Lin hurriedly dissuaded him: "Dad, don't do it!"

"Why not? Even you don't listen to me?"

"No! My brother was confused for a while, let's persuade him carefully, and he will understand."

"You won't take it, will you? I'll take it myself!" Papa Lin stormed away angrily.Mother Lin hurried forward to persuade her son: "Look at you, your father is so angry. Wouldn't it be okay if you apologize and admit your mistake?"

Lin Qiwei was very firm: "I did nothing wrong, why should I admit it?"

"You like men, aren't you right?"

"There is no right or wrong in feelings. As long as you are responsible for this feeling, you are right."

Mother Lin was anxious: "You child, why don't you listen to me?"

Just as he was talking, Father Lin came over with an umbrella and beat Lin Qiwei: "I made you like men! I made you like men! When you grow up, your wings will become hard and you will be lawless!" Mother Lin didn't want her son to be beaten, and stood on both sides Persuading: "Stop beating! My son is already so old, so speak up if you have something to say! What should you do if you are injured? You are so serious, why don't you admit your mistake?" Brother Lin and sister-in-law also helped to persuade, They couldn't make Papa Lin stop, nor could they make Lin Qiwei bow his head and admit his mistake.Father Lin scolded while beating: "How about the injury? Just beat this kind of son to death! I'll pretend I never gave birth to him!"

Lin Qiwei didn't move and let his father beat him, even resisting crying out for pain.Mother Lin was afraid that her younger son would be hurt, so she grabbed her husband and shouted to her elder son, "Take your brother into the room!" Father Lin's anger continued: "Don't stop me! I'll kill this bastard!"

Mother Lin and sister-in-law stopped Father Lin, while the elder brother dragged Lin Qiwei into the room.As soon as Brother Lin entered the room, he locked it first, and then pulled his younger brother to sit down: "What's the matter with you?" "How did this happen?" "What are you thinking?" "You're talking!" Father Lin roared angrily from outside the room: "Don't stop me! I'll kill that bastard today! I don't have such a son!"

Lin Qiwei lowered his head, as if the matter had nothing to do with him: "What do you want me to say?"

"Why do you like that person? You have such good conditions, I don't believe you can't find a good partner, why did you choose a man?"

Lin Qiwei raised his head slightly, and squinted at his eldest brother: "Brother, why did you marry your sister-in-law?"

"Aren't you asking nonsense? I like her!"

"What do you like about her?"

"I..." Brother Lin didn't know how to answer for a moment: "Now let's talk about your business, why are you bringing it up on me?"

"Answer me first, what do you like about sister-in-law?"

"I just like it! Your sister-in-law is very nice!"

"Sister-in-law is nice? Is it true that besides sister-in-law, none of the women you know is good, so you choose her?"

"That's not the way to say it. You can't say that other women are bad. If you like someone, you like it. Just look at each other. It's not a matter of choice."

Lin Qiwei grasped the big brother's words: "Yes! I like it, I like it, it's not a matter of choice. I didn't choose anyone, I just like Chen Han. We see each other, what's wrong?"

Brother Lin was at a loss for words, thought for a while, and sighed softly: "I understand. But your sister-in-law and I are a man and a woman, and you are two men! You are gay!"

"What's wrong with being gay? Do you feel sick?"

"No! No! That's not what it means." Brother Lin quickly denied, "It's not disgusting. I don't discriminate against homosexuals. Don't charge me with random charges. But you are my younger brother, so I can't ignore it!"

Lin Qiwei looked at his elder brother coldly: "Homosexuality is fine, but it can't be my family, is that true? You say you don't discriminate, but what is the difference between discrimination and discrimination? You still can't face it calmly!"

Brother Lin was speechless.The silence in the room made Dad Lin's voice in the living room very clear: "How could I have such a son? What a family misfortune!" Brother Lin was silent for a while before he spoke again: "Dad is so angry, what are you going to do?"

Lin Qiwei stared at his elder brother and asked cautiously, "Will you support me?"

"It's not my problem now, Mom and Dad..."

Lin Qiwei interrupted the eldest brother, his tone was stronger: "Will you support me?"

Brother Lin got up and walked back and forth in the room: "Aren't you embarrassing me?"

"I just need one word, will you support me?"

Faced with his younger brother's resolute attitude, Brother Lin softened: "I am not a rigid person. If you really think this is happier, elder brother will of course support you. The question is, can you pass the test with your parents?"

Lin Qiwei knows that young people can communicate easily, so he must first win the approval of his elder brother.The first step is now a success. "As long as you support me and help me beat the side drum, I'm sure I can convince Mom. After Mom agrees, she will naturally help me convince Dad."

"Okay then! But Dad is getting angry, don't make him angry these few days, keep a low profile."

Lin Qiwei agreed.

The living room was also quiet, and the storm seemed to subside for a while.Only temporarily, Lin Qiwei understood that the typhoon had only entered the eye of the typhoon, and the typhoon hadn't left yet.

There was also a small storm on Chen Han's side.Fortunately, his family is in Yilan, and his parents didn't rush to Taipei right away, they just called to ask what was going on.Chen Han reluctantly made up a few words to deal with it first, but he knew well that he could hide it for a while but not for a lifetime.

When I entered the office the next day, my colleagues saw the injuries on Lin Qiwei's face and came over to care for her.Lin Qiwei made up a car accident lie to cover it up.During the lunch break, Chen Han took Lin Qiwei to the rooftop: "Tell me honestly, was it really a car accident?"

Lin Qiwei expected that Xu Jinzhe would not target him alone, so he did not intend to hide this from Chen Han: "Of course not! My dad beat me."

When Chen Han heard the words, he immediately understood that the Lin family had also received the photos.Seeing the injury on Lin Qiwei's face, Chen Han felt distressed: "It hurts, right?"

Lin Qiwei smiled: "When I was beaten, I thought of you all the time, so it didn't hurt that much." Sweet words are always beautiful between lovers, Chen Han smiled.After laughing, he still had to face the reality, Lin Qiwei worriedly asked, "How are you doing?"

"My dad called last night. I lied to him that my friend was having a joke. I don't know if he believes it or not?"

"What if he doesn't believe it?"

"Then he will come to Taipei soon."

"What if he comes to Taipei?"

"Then..." Chen Han lowered his head, "I don't know what to do either."

Lin Qiwei supported Chen Han's chin.Let him raise his head: "Do you regret being with me in the end?"

Chen Han said firmly: "Of course I don't regret it! Being with you is the happiest thing for me."

"Okay! Then let's face it together, shall we?"

"Yeah!" Chen Han felt very relieved, as long as there are seniors around, all difficulties can be solved. "I want to die with you!"

Lin Qiwei smiled and pulled Chen Han into his arms: "Fool! I won't let you die. We want to grow old together."

That afternoon, Lin Qiwei transferred to Xu Jinzhe's office while he was out to discuss business with Tongtong.Xu Jinzhe took charge of this matter, and it was easy to guess what happened to Lin Qiwei's face.Apparently those photos have played a role.Xu Jinzhe smiled triumphantly: "I said, I will make you pay the price."

Lin Qiwei smiled lightly: "You think you can scare me like this?"

"I'm not trying to scare you, I just want to make life difficult for you and Chen Han."

"You are really a very vicious and despicable person." When Lin Qiwei scolded Xu Jinzhe, his voice was not the slightest bit angry.People who don't understand Chinese will think that he is saying "the weather is good today" and other commonplace sentences.

"It's easy to say!" Xu Jinzhe became more and more proud: "I am not a saint in the first place. I will be jealous. If I can't get it, Chen Han can't even think about it. You can scold me or hate me, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have achieved my goal." With that said, he lit a cigarette and smoked.Xu Jinzhe took a puff of smoke, waved his hand lightly to disperse the smoke, and looked at Lin Qiwei with a mocking smile.

Lin Qiwei watched Xu Jinzhe's provocative actions coldly, but he was not angry. "I don't hate you, I just find you pathetic, and I want to thank you."

Xu Jinzhe didn't think there was any irony in the word "thank you", he thought that Lin Qiwei was just trying to use his tongue to win back a victory in terms of words, but unfortunately it didn't help the matter. "Oh? Thank you for what?"

"Thank you for making this matter public for me. If Chen Han and I want to be together forever, we will have to face our family sooner or later. But I haven't thought of how to speak up yet. You have done me a big favor."

Xu Jinzhe did not expect that at this moment, Lin Qiwei could still say such words calmly.He couldn't help but admire Lin Qiwei's demeanor, and he believed in his own vision even more. Lin Qiwei was indeed worthy of his love. "And then? What are you going to do? Are you sure you can convince your family to accept Chen Han?"

"This is my business, don't worry about it. If my family can't accept Chen Han, then it's even more impossible for them to accept such a vile and shameless person like you."

"It doesn't matter!" Xu Jinzhe smiled more happily: "You rejected me a long time ago. I didn't do this to get you, but to separate you and Chen Han. I succeeded! How about it? Do you want to scold me or beat me?"

"I didn't come here today to scold you and beat you. I just want to confirm whether you did it. I don't want to wrong the innocent."

"Then you can rest assured! I did it, and I am not wronged at all!"

"Very good! Although you are despicable and shameless, at least you have the courage to act." Lin Qiwei clenched his fist with his right hand, knocked heavily on Xu Jinzhe's desk, then turned and left.Xu Jinzhe's heart trembled, but he felt that Lin Qiwei's punch seemed to hit his chest.

In order not to anger his parents for the time being, Lin Qiwei went home after work for several days, and did not dare to run around on weekends and holidays.He and Chen Han only met in the office during working hours.However, they can't show too much understanding in front of their colleagues, and the two of them can't help but feel very bored.

After lunch, Lin Qiwei wandered to the rooftop to breathe.As soon as I got to the rooftop, I saw two acquaintances there.Lin Qiwei was hesitating whether to leave, when he saw Li Xiaolan slap Ge Shouzheng hard.Lin Qiwei didn't understand what was going on, but felt rather embarrassed.Seeing Lin Qiwei, Li Xiaolan temporarily suppressed her anger, left the rooftop and went downstairs without saying a word.Ge Shouzheng gave Lin Qiwei a hard look, as if it was Lin Qiwei who hit him just now.Lin Qiwei felt uncomfortable from being watched, and was about to go downstairs, when Ge Shouzheng called to him: "What are you doing? Chasing my fiancée?"

Lin Qiwei didn't want to quarrel with him, so he replied blandly: "Go back to class five, is that okay? Mr. Head of Class!" After speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Ge Shouzheng to answer.Lin Qiwei felt nauseous after making a mess all over for no reason, and returned to class five with an uneasy face.Chen Han sensed that something was wrong, and stepped forward to be concerned: "What's wrong?"

"Swept to the tail of the typhoon." Lin Qiwei felt very bored.

"What do you mean? What typhoon tail?"

Just as he was talking, Ge Shouzheng also came back.Lin Qiwei stopped talking, but Ge Shouzheng's eyes still drifted over with malicious intentions.Chen Han observed his words and guessed that it was Ge Shouzheng who was making Lin Qiwei angry.He didn't like Ge Shouzheng at first, but seeing this scene made him even more disgusted.Because of Li Xiaolan, Ge Shouzheng has always had a grudge against Lin Qiwei, and Chen Han's refusal to transfer his job also made him very unhappy.He has always regarded this pair of seniors and juniors as enemies.Colleagues in the fifth class felt that the atmosphere in the office was a little weird, but they didn't know why.

Half an hour before get off work, Li Xiaolan sent a text message to Lin Qiwei, asking him to meet at a coffee shop next to Daan Forest Park after get off work.Lin Qiwei was very surprised to receive the text message, not knowing Li Xiaolan's intentions.Thinking that it was a blessing or a curse, and that the disaster could not be avoided, it would be no harm to meet her, so she agreed.
