Xia Chuyue hurriedly opened the gossip system, flipped through Ji Wanfeng's information, and frowned slightly.
Where did these unscrupulous media outlets come from?
Ji Wanfeng is not pregnant at all!
However, Xia Chuyue couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the hospital mentioned in the exposé.
The hospital that Ji Wanfeng went to happened to be the same hospital where her daughter worked!
Could it be... such a coincidence?
Xia Chuyue had just added Ji Wanfeng on WeChat last night. After hesitating for a moment, she still sent her a message.
[Senior Ji, did you go to the hospital last night because you weren't feeling well?]
Ji Wanfeng replied after a long time, her tone seemingly carrying a hint of excitement:
[Yes, I've always had stomach problems, and last night it suddenly started hurting, so I thought I'd go to the hospital. Unexpectedly, I ran into a little girl at the hospital who looked just like me!]
[It was quite a coincidence. I felt an instant connection with her the moment I saw her. Thinking about how my daughter had passed away and how pitiful it was for her to live with her grandmother, I decided to adopt her.]
[Unexpectedly, on a whim, I did a paternity test, and she really is my daughter!!!]
Ji Wanfeng naturally couldn't reveal that he could hear Xia Chuyue's thoughts, nor could he reveal that he knew about the existence of the system, so he made up a "lie" in a reasonable way.
Ji Wanfeng didn't sleep all night, but she was excited and thrilled to have her daughter back, and didn't feel tired at all.
Xia Chuyue could tell from the number of exclamation marks in Ji Wanfeng's typing that she was genuinely happy.
What a coincidence!
Xia Chuyue sighed. Looking at the message Ji Wanfeng sent, she didn't think of anything else, only that Ji Wanfeng was really lucky.
But that's alright, at least I don't have to rack my brains to find a way to remind Ji Wanfeng to go to the hospital to find her daughter.
[Congratulations, Senior Ji! You'll have a sweet little girl now! But how did your daughter get lost? What happened?]
Xia Chuyue couldn't directly tell Ji Wanfeng that her husband and sister-in-law had a problem, so she could only hint at it indirectly.
Ji Wanfeng was touched when he saw the message Xia Chuyue sent.
She sighed softly, her gratitude towards Xia Chuyue surging like a tidal wave, unstoppable.
From now on, Xia Chuyue will be her goddaughter in the entertainment industry!
Ji Wanfeng's expression was firm, then he seemed to remember something and took out the script "Riding the Wind".
She had been impressed by Xia Chuyue's character last night and wanted to give her a small but likable role in the drama.
But now…
Ji Wanfeng picked up the phone and, in his capacity as an investor, secured an exceptionally outstanding supporting role for Xia Chuyue.
Immediately afterwards, he called Xia Chuyue with great enthusiasm and said:
"You'll be on set tomorrow signing the contract! As for the second female lead, I've already discussed it with the director; you can start filming as soon as you get there!"
Xia Chuyue held her phone, her round eyes widening in surprise.

This is incredible! Not only did the resources fall from the sky, but they also upgraded themselves?!
Xia Chuyue has played many supporting roles, but most of them are like the drama she promoted in the live broadcast room yesterday.
Low budget, minimal investment, and obscure actors.
Xia Chuyue would never even dare to dream of a drama like Ji Wanfeng's, which involves investments of hundreds of millions of yuan.
and!
She's still the second female lead!
Xia Chuyue was in a daze. Even when the director's scandal broke today, just as the system predicted, and he became a trending topic, ridiculed and mocked by netizens, causing his career to plummet, she was still not in a daze.
It wasn't until the next morning, when she arrived outside the "Riding the Wind" film crew's door, that she finally felt a sense of reality.
The director received Ji Wanfeng's call and was already waiting at the entrance of the film set.
As he smoked, he saw Xia Chuyue approaching, and his brows furrowed deeply.
He hates people who get ahead through connections the most!
However, Ji Wanfeng is not only an investor, but also plays the female lead in a certain period of the film, a very important role, so he would not easily offend her.
Since the role of the second female lead had been vacant for quite some time, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and let Xia Chuyue take the role.
Even though the director had never dealt with Xia Chuyue, he had at least heard of her reputation in the industry.
If Ji Wanfeng hadn't told him, he wouldn't have given this celebrity a second glance!
"Xia Chuyue? Come in first. You'll be with my group. Let's go to the makeup room in the back for a makeup trial."
Xia Chuyue was not talkative in public, her beautiful face was indifferent. She nodded and followed the director inside.
The next moment, her inner voice rang out.
[Director Natsukawa? Let me see what interesting gossip you have.]
Director Xia Chuan, who brought Xia Chuyue to the set, was taken aback for a moment, then remembered Ji Wanfeng's vague words on the phone yesterday.
"Xia Chuyue is a bit different from ordinary people. You'll know when you meet her, but don't reveal it. You'll understand once you join the group! Pay close attention to the group announcements!"
At the time, the director thought Ji Wanfeng was acting strangely and even suspected that Xia Chuyue had cast a spell on her!
Unexpectedly, he was able to hear Xia Chuyue's thoughts!
Director Natsukawa frowned, thinking, "It can't be just me."
He thought of Ji Wanfeng and guessed that anyone in the entertainment industry, whether a director, star, or host, should be able to hear about it.
As expected, when they arrived at the dressing room, Director Xia Chuan observed the makeup artists with his eyes and found that they did not show any strange expressions, so he knew what was going on.
It seems that the scope of this expression of feelings is also subject to limitations.
It was just a matter of hearing someone's thoughts. Was it really worth Ji Wanfeng going to such lengths to use his connections to help Xia Chuyue get this role?
You have to understand that favors and connections are something you can only use once, so big shots in the industry don't use them lightly.
There weren't many people in the dressing room; besides the director and makeup artist, there were only two actors getting their makeup done.
The director sighed and shook his head. After instructing the makeup artist to do a makeup test on Xia Chuyue, he prepared to go back and oversee the filming.
The next second, he heard:
[Director, you look a bit cuckolded. Make sure you don't wear a green hat lately, or you'll really be glowing green.]
director:……
What's the meaning?
The foot that had just stepped out the door suddenly didn't want to go any further.
The other two actors, who were getting their makeup done, couldn't help but prick up their ears and look over in the director's direction.
The director's face darkened. Seeing that the two dared to laugh at him, he roared:
"Hurry up and do your makeup! Time is tight, every minute wasted is money!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyue's expression turned serious. She stopped gossiping and quickly cooperated with the makeup artist to finish the makeup trial.
Upon seeing this, the director went back to filming with a dark expression.
He had barely sat down behind the camera, watching the male and female leads' scene, when he heard Xia Chuyue's inner voice ring out again as she approached:
The director seems to handle these kinds of romantic scenes quite smoothly, probably because of his experience. After all, he pursued eight girls in a single year during his university years!
However, they failed to catch any of them.
The people filming on set smelled the melon and their eyes instantly became amused.
