There are many men who want to be Zhuo Chen's stepfather. Zhuo Chen didn't understand the mentality of those men until he grew up. Their desire to contribute fatherly love was fake. They were all thinking about getting both money and beauty!
Naturally, his mother would look down on any man like that.
His mother said that he had a father, so he could have the surname Xie, and took him back to China to meet Xie Jinghu.
Xie Jinghu is much better than those men who want to be Zhuo Chen's stepfather!
But Zhuo Chen couldn't use the surname Xie after all, because Xie Jinghu already had a wife and children, and obviously had no intention of divorce, so he could only use the surname Zhuo.
There's nothing wrong with having the last name Zhuo.
But as his sister Zhuo Yue said, being able to choose not to have the surname Xie and being forbidden from having the surname Xie are two completely different things.
If he and Xie Qian were put on a fair playing field and asked to compete with Xie Qian, he would accept his fate if he was not as good as Xie Qian.
Now that the Xie family is unwilling to give him a chance to compete, how can he willingly admit defeat?
When Zhuo Chen spoke again, his tone was no longer as harsh: "What does it matter whether it's fair or not? We can't control other people's thoughts."
Zhuo Yue's pretty face was full of stubbornness: "We'll know only after we try it. I won't admit defeat until I've tried it!"
Zhuo Chen asked his sister what she wanted to do, but Zhuo Yue chose to keep it secret:
"Girls have their own ways. Just wait and see. If it doesn't work, we won't lose anything!"
Zhuo Chen rubbed his sister's head again, causing Zhuo Yue to tilt her head and avoid him. There was an indescribable warmth and intimacy between the brother and sister.
…
Across the Pacific Ocean, the Zhuo brothers and sisters are showing a heartwarming brother-sister relationship. At the Shanghai airport, Inspector Luo carries all his belongings with him in a bag.
Xie Qian booked the fastest flight for Inspector Luo, and Wen Ying had not left when Inspector Luo arrived in the Magic City.
Inspector Luo had just arrived in Shanghai, exhausted and without even a sip of hot water, when Xie Qian called and asked him to start work immediately:
“The situation has changed.”
The riot that had clearly been suppressed during the book signing event was still reported by the media.
Although the media claimed that they learned about this from readers at the scene, Xie Qian was still very unhappy. Any unknown matter that was out of Xie Qian's control was potentially dangerous. Xie Qian asked Wen Ying to leave the Magic City immediately and stay away from the circle of right and wrong, but Wen Ying refused:
"This news isn't regional, and I can't escape from the Magic City. It also makes me look guilty. No matter what, I'm a victim, right?"
Wen Ying's trip to Shanghai was originally only three days, and now is the third day.
This time, Xie Qian ignored her nagging and directly dismissed her defense: "News isn't regional. You're also a victim, but the Shanghai signing is where the incident happened. If you ignore those media, they naturally won't have much stamina. If the media really chase you with questions, just accept a phone interview. Don't forget that you still have four cities waiting for your signing. Do you really want to disrupt all your schedule?"
Of course not.
The remaining four book signing events have already been promoted. Not to mention what the booksellers will think if they are canceled at the last minute, Wen Ying can't bear to see the readers disappointed.
The fact that someone disrupted the book signing event in Shanghai did not affect Wen Ying's ability to sell products. The bookstore sold more than 4,000 copies of "Galaxy and You" alone on that day.
In addition to the new book "Galaxy and You", many copies of "Teenage Idol" were also sold on the spot.
This is what the media should have focused on, because Wen Ying broke the book signing record for young writers!
