Chapter 668: Daddy, You’re Not Allowed to Die!
‘Wandering Earth’ was a science fiction adaptation of a novel.
The general content was to save the earth, and the father and son were both fighting in places where they could not see each other.
Even with the help of global technology, it could not change the fact that earth had crashed into Jupiter, and humanity was in danger of being destroyed as the countdown went on.
At a critical moment, the father of the astronaut did not want to abandon his family on earth, and he did not want to escape the Solar System by piloting the space station known as the ‘human spark’.
Instead, he headed to the space station to crash into Mars, using his life to ignite the hydrogen on Jupiter’s surface, causing the explosive shock waves to push earth away from Jupiter, thus avoiding the outcome of earth colliding with Jupiter.
What moved the audience was not the outstanding special effect of the movie. It was more of a shock, a shock to the soul!
It allowed people to see the future of earth. The green mountains and clear waters were long gone. It was covered in snow and ice, an atmosphere filled with dust.
It was bleak, sorrowful and sad…
An hour and a half later, the movie screening ended!
Ye Chen walked out with Su Yuhan and the two little girls. Mengmeng, who was in his arms, could not stop crying.
She would even wipe her snot on his shoulder from time to time.
Even Su Yuhan was wiping her tears silently with a tissue.
Ye Chen looked around and noticed that many people had tears in their eyes. He took the initiative to pass a tissue to the mother and daughter, “Do you guys have to do this?”
‘Why would people cry watching a movie?’
Su Yuhan took the tissue and said while sobbing, “I’m so touched!”
When the movie was about to end, Liu Peiqiang, the astronaut, was in space. He held back his tears and said to his son, “Sorry, I have to go on another mission. This is the most important mission in my life…”
When the mother and daughter saw that, they could not hold back their tears any longer. Many people in the theater started to cry as well.
Ye Chen was also affected.
Even though the theme of this movie was sci-fi, it was not a pure sci-fi film. There was a hint of father-son love mixed into it.
He was moved by the father-son bond.
“Daddy…”
Mengmeng tugged at the corner of his shirt.
The little girl looked at him silently. Several seconds later, tears started streaming down her face again, “Daddy, will you… die like that daddy in the movie?”
Her seemingly silly words made Su Yuhan feel even sadder.
A movie was enough to make her cry.
She dared not imagine what would happen if Ye Chen died one day.
How could she accept that…
Ye Chen reached out to scratch Mengmeng’s nose when he saw the mother and daughter’s nervous gaze. He said while smiling, “Silly girl, why would daddy die? Who’s going to protect my dear daughter if I die?”
“Daddy, you’re not allowed to die!”
The little girl wiped her tears and looked at Ye Chen hopefully. She said shyly, “Pinky promise?”
“Okay, pinky promise!”
“Pinky promise that will last for a hundred years!”
Ye Chen smiled as well. He stretched out his finger and locked it with hers. Then, he pulled the mother and daughter into his embrace.
He swore to himself.
‘Not only will I not die, none of you will die!
Our family must live well!’
What they did not notice was that Qianqian, who was standing at the side, was looking at the family of three. Her clear eyes flashed with envy and sadness.
She also wanted to have parents.
‘Where are Qianqian’s parents?’
At that moment, her frail body was extremely lonely.
It was as if she had become the girl who walked down the streets in her tattered clothes and shoes all over again.
At that moment, the door to Hall No.2 opened, and countless people walked out.
“Damn, what kind of terrible acting was that…”
“If I had known, I wouldn’t have come even if I’ve already bought the ticket…”
“The commercial was amazing, but the real thing turns out to be sh*t…”
“…”
Compared to the audience in Hall No.5, most people in Hall No.2 were cursing.
Su Youwei, who was walking at the front, cursed as she walked, “I’m so mad. It was supposed to be a good sci-fi film, but it’s turned into a rom-com. And that dumb actor, I’m begging you, hone your acting skills for a few more years before you start acting again.”
She only noticed Ye Chen and the rest at the door after she was done cursing. She glared at Ye Chen angrily when she saw Su Yuhan’s red eyes, “Ye, did you bully my sister?”
Ye Chen glanced at her coldly.
That glance scared her so much that she subconsciously took a step back. Then, she felt like she had lost her dignity a little bit, so she took another step forward. However, one of her hands was gripping Lin Han tightly.
Lin Han immediately stood in front of her and looked into Ye Chen’s eyes, “Brother Ye, Weiwei is my girlfriend. I hope you can show her some respect.”
“What if I don’t?” Ye Chen said slowly.
A mocking smirk appeared on Lin Han’s lips, “Brother Ye, don’t forget about the negotiation three days from now. I’ll be there too.”
Ye Chen remained unmoved, “So what?”
Su Youwei wanted to ask what the negotiation was when she saw the hidden tension in their conversation. However, she was interrupted by Su Yuhan, “No, I cried while watching the movie!”
Su Yuhan shook her head and looked at Su Youwei, “Weiwei, how long are you going to stay in Tiannan this time? Will you visit your brother-in-law?”
“I won’t be staying for long, sister. There’s something that I need to do, so I won’t be visiting!” Su Youwei glanced at Ye Chen weakly before leaving with Lin Han.
Ye Chen looked at the two of them leaving with a profound gaze. He then shook his head and said, “Let’s go!”
…
At a luxury hotel in Lin City, Su Youwei put down the bag in her hand. She turned around and said to Lin Han, who was behind her, “Lin Han, are you hiding something from me?”
Lin Han smiled gently, “No, you’re overthinking.”
“No!”
However, Su Youwei did not believe him. She looked at him in doubt, “When we first met, you said that your family runs a business, but I’ve never seen your parents. Neither have I met your friends, and I’ve never seen you handle any business matters.”
Lin Han’s eyes turned grim.
“You exchanged a punch with Ye Chen at the gala!”
Su Youwei continued, “Even someone as powerful as him was forced to take a step back because of you. Where did you get your skills from? I don’t believe that a rich second-generation heir is that powerful!”
At this point, she softened her tone and subconsciously held Lin Han’s hand, “Lin Han, I know you truly love me, but you can’t hide anything from me, because that would make me insecure.”
The man picked up her hand and took a good look at it. He said without even lifting his head, “Before we talk about this, let me ask you something. Do you think your brother-in-law is powerful?”
“Of course he is!”
Su Youwei said without even thinking, “Although I don’t like him, I have to admit that he’s a terrifying person. Countless people have died at his hands.”
Lin Han remained expressionless from the beginning to the end.
He slowly raised his head, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his lips, “What if I tell you that I can kill your brother-in-law like a piece of cake?”
