The Counterattack Plan of A Villain With Ten Thousand Fans - Chapter 22 (Patreon)

Chapter 22

"I'm sorry, I was distracted just now," Lin Chunan parked the car, apologized with a smile to Yang Qingya, picked up the duckbill cap beside him and pressed it on his head. "Stay in the car, I'll handle this."

As it was just a minor rear-end collision and occurred in the leftmost lane, it didn't attract much attention. Those who happened to notice were either casting sympathetic or gloating glances at Lin Chunan. The collision involved an ordinary business car hitting a luxury car worth millions, and the onlookers were quick to react with tut-tuts.

Feeling the impact from the rear of the car, Lin Tianhao's nerves, previously tense due to the little troublemaker in the car, suddenly snapped. He got out of the car, only to be met with a face full of apology, and he couldn't help but ease his initial anger as he faced Lin Chunan's charming eyes.

Lin Chunan took the initiative to speak, "I'm sorry, sir. I accidentally hit your car," pointing to the completely shattered car light on the luxury car, "I'll take responsibility for the compensation."

098: "Host, your way of striking up a conversation is quite old-fashioned."

"I don't know how to strike up a conversation," Lin Chunan innocently replied. "I learned this move from Chu Yunge."

"..."

Lin Tianhao obviously recognized Lin Chunan, "You..."

"Oops," Lin Chunan touched his face, looking somewhat regretful, "Forgot to wear my glasses."

Seeing the seemingly distressed expression on the person in front of him, Lin Tianhao, who was originally brimming with anger, softened by eight points. Lin Chunan then said, "I'm sorry, sir. I accidentally hit your car. I'll take responsibility for the compensation."

Lin Tianhao's face darkened momentarily, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile, "No, today at noon when I was driving through Yonglin Road, this little guy suddenly rushed in front of my car. Since I didn't see his family coming to look for him after waiting for a while, I'm planning to take him to the police station now."

Lin Chunan nodded sincerely, "You're a good person." Not even recognizing his own son.

Lin Chunan's eyes were clear and distinct, especially when he looked seriously at someone, his eyes could clearly reflect the other person's shadow, creating an illusion that the person was his entire world. This was one of the secrets that allowed Lin Chunan to rise from obscurity to fame. No one could resist his charm.

When Lin Tianhao came back to his senses, Lin Chunan was already chatting with the little troublemaker he disliked.

"Do you remember what daddy's name is, Xiaochen?" Lin Chunan asked with a smile.

Apparently liking this big brother very much, the little boy replied in a childish voice, "Xiaochen doesn't have a daddy." Then he blinked his big eyes, grabbed Lin Chunan's finger, and said, "Xiaochen likes big brother. Can big brother be Xiaochen's daddy?"

Lin Chunan chuckled and rubbed the soft hair of the little guy, "Big brother likes Xiaochen too, but big brother can't be your daddy, okay?"

"Why not?" The little boy tilted his head, looking innocent.

"Because big brother can't like your mommy." 

"My mommy is so pretty, um, a little less pretty than big brother, but she cooks super delicious food." The little guy stretched his words, then looked at Lin Chunan with anticipation, "Big brother, be my daddy, okay?"

098 couldn't help but mock, "The male lead hasn't fallen for you, but a two-year-old has fallen for you. Host, you're amazing."

Lin Chunan raised an eyebrow, "This shows that my charm can't be resisted even by a little kid. But how do you know the male lead won't fall for me?"

Glancing at the male lead who was smiling next to him, 098 said, "He's straight."

Without arguing further with 098, Lin Chunan hugged the little guy onto his lap, smiled and kissed his face, "Big brother likes big brother. So, big brother can't like your mommy, but Xiaochen's mommy cooks so well. Big brother can be friends with mommy, okay?"

"Oh." Although not quite understanding Lin Chunan's meaning, the little guy was happy again upon hearing that Lin Chunan couldn't be his daddy. "My mommy is called Yang Qingya. Big brother, do you know her? My mommy is a big star."

Lin Chunan subconsciously looked at Lin Tianhao, finding that the other seemed to be in a daze. Turning back to the little guy, he said, "What a coincidence, Xiaochen. Your mommy and I are already friends. She's in my car right now."

"Really? Can I go find my mommy?" The little guy eagerly looked at Lin Chunan.

This child was sensible. Lin Chunan touched his smooth face again and then looked at the seemingly still-dazed male lead, "Sir, I want to take him to confirm whether he's my friend's child."

"Alright, alright." Lin Tianhao coughed, shifting his gaze away from Ling Chunan's face. "I hope he is indeed your friend's child."

"Thank you." Ling Chunan glanced at Lin Tianhao again, took out a business card, "I'm sorry for hitting your car. You go ahead and get it repaired; I'll cover the expenses. This is my private number. Just let me know when you're ready." Then, he lifted the little guy in his arms, who was looking at him with wide eyes. "I'll take this child with me for now."

The host is quite something, hitting someone's car and casually taking away their son. 098 glanced back at the male lead, who was still staring blankly as Ling Chunan left, suddenly feeling that its previous conclusion might be a bit hasty.

Is the male lead really straight?

"Miss Yang, while dealing with the accident just now, I chatted with this little guy. He mentioned his mom's name is Yang Qingya. Is he your child?" Ling Chunan said as he opened the car door.

At this moment, two voices sounded simultaneously.

"Xiaochen!"

"Mommy!"

Watching the business car go away, Lin Tianhao leaned against the car, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and tossed the butt away.

Dropping the cigarette butt, he returned to the car, looked at the business card Ling Chunan gave him again, then put it in the car trunk. After some thought, he took it out and placed it in his wallet.

Because Ling Chunan helped her find her son, Yang Qingya's appreciation for him increased significantly. She treated him like a lifesaver, insisting on covering both their car repair expenses.

Ling Chunan principledly refused, stating that his car was company-provided, insured, and could be fully reimbursed. The expenses for the other person's car, however, would be covered by him.

Yang Qingya obviously hesitated, but Ling Chunan said, "Your career has just started. I heard this is your debut drama, and it may take a long time to receive your payment. You have a child to support, and besides, I hit the car, so it's not your concern. Don't worry." With a sly smile, he added, "I have plenty of money."

Ling Chunan successfully convinced Yang Qingya.

Indeed, he was wealthy. After more than ten years in the industry, aside from increasing appearance fees, his endorsement fees were astronomical. The money he invested in the company had multiplied several times, though his total assets might not be as much as the male lead's, it was significantly higher than the grassroots male supporting role.

"Counterattack Value +5%, current Counterattack Value 35%, please continue your efforts, Host."

Rejecting the female lead's lunch invitation, Ling Chunan drove his beat-up car back to his own place. As he reached for the keys, he was surprised to find the door ajar.

The man inside smiled brightly, "Baby, you're back."

"..."

"How did you find my home?" Ling Chunan sat on the sofa, watching the man bustling around.

"I checked your information." Chu Yunge put a fruit plate in front of Ling Chunan, answering obediently.

"Where did you get the key?"

"I had someone open it for me." Chu Yunge said, then with a face full of desire, he reached out to embrace Ling Chunan, "So, it's a bit inconvenient. Baby, why don't you give me a spare key? That way, I won't casually ask people to open your door in the future."

"Didn't you say you left for something important?"

"Yes, I just moved in here." The man answered seriously.

"..."

"098, I feel like I've been fooled." Ling Chunan sighed, "I didn't realize he's so shameless."

098: "I think he might have learned it from you."

Ling Chunan went upstairs and found that, as the man said, his clothes had taken up half of his wardrobe. Toiletries were neatly arranged alongside his own, and the bathroom slippers at the entrance had changed from one pair to two.

"I've never seen such a straightforward pursuit." Ling Chunan remarked.

098 gloated, "Now you have."

"But I like it." Ling Chunan added, "Someone will warm my bed again at night."

"..."

Anyway, Ling Chunan's home now had an unexpected guest. However, to his disappointment, when Chu Yunge slept with him at night, although he touched and kissed as much as needed, they didn't go all the way.

In his words, he wanted to save the most beautiful moment for their engagement.

Frustrated Ling Chunan, with ignited desire and nowhere to vent, bit down fiercely.

Chu Yunge grunted, his hands encircling Ling Chunan's waist. Whether it was enduring or painful, his voice sounded hoarse, "Baby, you're so passionate; I won't be able to handle it."

Ling Chunan raised an eyebrow, sneering at him, "Then do it!"
