Chapter 7: The daughter is still alive!



Upon hearing Xia Chuyue's thoughts, Ji Wanfeng swayed as if he had suffered a major blow.

Her lips trembled slightly, and her eyes widened a little. She just couldn't reconcile Xia Chuyue's thoughts with her usual considerate and warm husband.

The husband knew perfectly well that she was the daughter he had longed for all these years!

Ji Wanfeng looked grief-stricken, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

The early summer moon continues:

Ji Wanfeng's husband's sister gave him an idea: taking advantage of the baby girl's weak condition after birth, they could secretly increase the dosage of the child's medication, avoiding the doctor.

That way, even if a child dies in an accident, they won't be suspected; they'll just think the child was too weak and couldn't be saved.

However, seeing his daughter still in the incubator, Ji Wanfeng's husband softened and bribed the doctor to throw her into a trash can to fend for herself.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wanfeng's eyes were already brimming with tears.

She couldn't believe that her husband could be so heartless as to harm his own daughter!

[Ji Wanfeng's husband's sister also had her own ulterior motives. Her family was poor, and their lives only improved after her brother married the big star Ji Wanfeng.]

Having witnessed the extravagance of high society, she naturally had no desire to return to a life of poverty.

Knowing that Ji Wanfeng liked children, she often brought her two daughters to Ji Wanfeng's house.

Thanks to her daughter's connections, this sister-in-law always managed to get a lot of jewelry, new clothes, and bags from Ji Wanfeng, and her ambitions were gradually fueled.

She thought to herself that if Ji Wanfeng never had any children, then her daughter could inherit Ji Wanfeng's property openly and legitimately.

Since Ji Wanfeng is going to die sooner or later anyway, it's better to leave all the good things to our children!

After learning that her younger brother had been kind enough not to kill their daughter, but only to throw her into a trash can, the older sister-in-law went further and planned to throw the child into the river to drown her.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wanfeng's red eyes turned into sharp anger. She gritted her teeth and tried hard to suppress her rage.

I never expected that the person I shared my bed with would actually be a demon in human skin!

That sister-in-law who always tried to please me was actually harboring evil intentions and was the executioner who killed my daughter!

Ji Wanfeng's success in the entertainment industry is not solely due to her acting skills.

She quickly rallied, secretly sneered, and planned a series of revenge in her heart, determined to send the two people who killed her daughter to hell!

Before she could even catch her breath, Xia Chuyue dropped another bombshell.

However, the child didn't die after being thrown into the river; she's still alive!

Ji Wanfeng paused as she stepped into the coffee shop, her hand quickly pressing against the door frame to support her weak body and prevent her from collapsing on the spot.

What?!!!

His own daughter, she's still alive?!

Ji Wanfeng took a deep breath, his lips trembling. He really wanted to shake Xia Chuyue's shoulders and ask her where his daughter was right now!

But then she thought of that miraculously powerful system…

What if the system notices something once it reveals that it can hear Xia Chuyue's thoughts, or if Xia Chuyue gives up and stops checking gossip altogether?

All we can do now is to remain still.

Ji Wanfeng took two deep breaths to calm herself down.

Xia Chuyue felt sorry for Ji Wanfeng, sighed, and mentally called out the system.

[Xiao Qi, can I reveal some gossip to the person involved? Senior Ji Wanfeng is really having a tough time.]

017's voice is very lively, and she replies with great energy:

【Of course you can, but the host cannot actively reveal the existence of the Gossip System!】

Xia Chuyue said "oh" and then asked in confusion:

What would be the consequences if this were exposed?

017 chuckled and the little fluffy ball bounced up and down, looking soft and bouncy.

[If exposed, the system will indiscriminately expose one celebrity's gossip online every day! After all, we're a gossip-revealing system—just doing tasks to expose gossip right now is a bit slow.]

Upon hearing this, not only Xia Chuyue, but even Ji Wanfeng gasped.

Indiscriminate exposure every day?!

Ji Wanfeng considered himself to be a clean-living and upright person, but when he thought about the tragic events of his childhood and the various jokes he made when he first entered the entertainment industry, he couldn't help but awkwardly pick his toes.

If this gets exposed, she won't be able to stay in the industry anymore; she might as well go home and die.

Thinking of this, Ji Wanfeng quickly opened a group chat.

This is a group chat that was temporarily created by the young stars who just heard Xia Chuyue's heartfelt words backstage.

The group chat was in full swing, with everyone discussing the gossip about the director and the male lead Zhou Hao that night, as well as Xia Chuyue's inner thoughts.

It wasn't until Ji Wanfeng appeared and shared the consequences of exposing the gossip in the group chat that everyone in the group fell silent for a few seconds.

Immediately, a torrent of information burst forth—

[From now on, if anyone dares to mention gossip or the system in front of Xia Chuyue, I'll kill them tonight!]

[At least with the current system tasks, Xia Chuyue can choose which gossip to expose. If this were exposed and she started indiscriminately attacking, it's hard to say who would be hit.]

[I won't allow it! Xia Chuyue is my own mother now, and I'll protect her at all times! Anyone who dares to mess with her will face my wrath!]

Xia Chuyue probably never expected that in just one night after acquiring the gossip system, she would gain her own die-hard fans.

These people are all acting like madmen. If you offend Xia Chuyue, it's the same as offending their parents. They're the kind of people who would actually draw their knives and fight you.

So those who were criticizing Xia Chuyue online suddenly discovered that Xia Chuyue had gained a lot of die-hard fans that night!

Upon receiving news of his daughter, Ji Wanfeng became the number one fan among these die-hard fans.

At this moment, Ji Wanfeng and Xia Chuyue were sitting in the coffee shop, each lost in their own thoughts.

It wasn't until Xia Chuyue finished searching through the gossip that her inner voice resonated once more.

[Finally found! There's so much gossip! Apparently, after the little girl was thrown into the water, she was found by an elderly woman scavenging on the other side of the river.]

The old man, with a soft heart, took Ji Wanfeng's daughter home and raised her with great care. Judging by her age, the little girl should be exactly four years old now.

Upon hearing that his daughter was truly alive, Ji Wanfeng's interlaced fingers tightened involuntarily, and a hint of gratitude appeared in his eyes as he looked at Xia Chuyue.

She lost her appetite for coffee, barely daring to breathe, and listened quietly to Xia Chuyue's thoughts, afraid of missing any other information about her daughter.

[Let me check, I found it! Ji Wanfeng's daughter is currently in a hospital in the next city!]
