Chapter 58
Chapter 58
Jiang Mingyue abruptly broke free from observing the characters' performances in the film and returned to the real world.
She hurriedly rolled out of bed, nearly tripping over the sheet that covered her calves.
After rushing out of the bedroom, Jiang Mingyue grabbed Li Ruojun and asked her, "Where's the test report?"
Li Ruojun held up her phone with difficulty: "Sister, Auntie just called and said that she should have been brought back when Brother Liu picked her up."
Jiang Mingyue rubbed her face and smiled sheepishly: "I was too hasty."
She quickly let go of Li Ruojun, turned around and went back into the room, wrapping her body in the bed sheet with her back to the door.
A smile gradually spread across Jiang Mingyue's face, and finally, an undisguised joyful expression was welded onto her face.
Although she kept telling herself that if Han Jialan was really her mother's real child, she could just hide somewhere else when Han Jialan appeared; Jiang Mingyue knew that the fact that Han Jialan was not Liang Shuanglan's biological daughter was wonderful to her.
From now on, I won't have to force myself to get along with Han Jialan at all!
Jiang Mingyue happily hugged the sheets and rolled around on the bed, taking a long time to calm down from her excessive joy. But she soon remembered her adoptive mother's tireless search for her newborn daughter, and her mood involuntarily dropped.
Mom, she must be very disappointed. She has experienced disappointment again.
Jiang Mingyue subconsciously reached under her pillow, wanting to find her phone, but instantly realized that she had given it to her assistant. She could only clench her fists and suppress her urgent desire to contact her adoptive mother.
After tossing and turning restlessly on the bed a few times, she finally decided to go back into the "three-bedroom apartment" to continue analyzing the plot.
Jiang Mingyue cannot change the facts, but as long as she can let the whole world know her name, then when she releases the message to find her adoptive mother and daughter, the spread will definitely exceed all other methods that can be found through any channel.

Jiang Mingyue had been keeping half her attention outside, barely managing to watch two episodes in the video room. But as soon as she heard the commotion outside, she snapped back to reality, rushed out the door, and grabbed Liang Shuanglan's hand tightly: "Mom, this isn't it, there are others, let's keep looking."
Liang Shuanglan looked at Jiang Mingyue helplessly: "It's okay, Mom knows that worrying won't help. I'm not feeling unwell, you don't need to be so serious."
She reached out and rubbed Jiang Mingyue's head a few times: "Mom is indeed a little disappointed, but more than that, I'm relieved. If Han Jialan were my biological daughter, I probably would never have been truly loved by her. You've been worrying about me for quite a while now. Alright, go do your own thing."
Liang Shuanglan rubbed her shoulders, looking somewhat tired: "I'll take a break too."
Jiang Mingyue helped Liang Shuanglan back to her new room and casually paid back the money she owed her classmates from school for donations. "Mom, I can earn money now. The uncles and aunts in the hospital who gave us money aren't well-off either. Please pay back the money while you continue your treatment."
When you want to get medical treatment, money becomes no longer money.
Liang Shuanglan was reluctant to give up treatment because she was worried about the tens of thousands of yuan in medical expenses. Even if other families could afford treatment, they certainly wouldn't be well-off.
Moreover, Liang Shuanglan also knew that her daughter's scandal with that singer had been spreading like wildfire in the past two days, and her fame had already increased. Once the TV series her daughter starred in premiered, no matter how much she earned, everyone would think that she had already made it big. If she hadn't paid back the donations she received, she would definitely cause a scene.
It's all because she herself doesn't have the ability to make a lot of money, so now she's making her daughter work hard to earn money to support the family at such a young age.
Liang Shuanglan didn't ask her daughter how she made money so quickly. Instead, she grabbed her daughter's hand apologetically, squeezed it, and nodded while biting her lip.
There's no need for those polite words between mother and daughter anymore.

Jiang Mingyue coaxed Liang Shuanglan to go back to rest, and then went back to her room to lie down, but actually continued to watch the series "Children Have a Place to Grow Up".
When evening came, Liang Shuanglan got up and ate dinner with Li Ruojun and Xiao Liu.
After dropping Liang Shuanglan off in the afternoon, Xiao Liu was called to the company by Gu Yifan. When he returned, he brought the recently revised script of "The Silver Bottle". Then he quickly sat down to eat.
Jiang Mingyue sat in the living room, turned on the TV, used the news broadcast as background music, and opened the script.
Even though Jiang Mingyue is playing the younger version of the female lead, she is still a "female lead," and the character's details are far more nuanced than any role she has played before.
"A full fifteen episodes, each episode taking up twenty minutes, they have so much screen time!" Jiang Mingyue watched with a broad smile.
Time flew by as she read the script, and by the time Jiang Mingyue finished, there were only two minutes left until eight o'clock. She quickly grabbed the remote and switched the channel to entertainment news.
Huangtai has focused on the entertainment industry since the rise of the internet. Not only does its television station have flagship entertainment programs, but the dramas it has invested in in recent years have also achieved impressive ratings. Having profited from the entertainment industry's boom, Huangtai has poured even more resources into it. With the decline of traditional television, it has astutely shifted its investment focus to the internet.
Fu Xiachuan's investment overlapped with that of a leader at Huangtai. This time, Lan Xu's exclusive news was also handed over to Huangtai, which sent a special person to conduct the interview and broadcast it exclusively on a program at 8 pm.
After the iconic theme song ended, entertainment news stories were narrated by the TV presenter.
The content is nothing more than a certain superstar releasing a new song, a certain popular artist meeting up with his ex-girlfriend at night, a certain celebrity starring in a TV series, and a certain diva facing divorce proceedings. Each item is accompanied by the host's commentary and a "review" of the artist's private life, making it difficult to discern the truth from the facts, leaving the audience forever wondering what the real story is.
A dozen minutes later, the program finally began analyzing the most explosive news of the day.
The host picked up a card, deliberately cleared his throat, and said, "Alright, I know you've all been waiting impatiently. Since yesterday, we've been receiving a lot of submissions from fans asking us to investigate the matter of popular singer Lan Xu changing companies. I was also very curious, so our reporter sent someone to personally contact Lan Xu about this topic of great interest to fans and obtained firsthand information. Now, please see—"
The screen rotates, and the camera enters the pre-recorded VCR.
Jiang Mingyue immediately recognized the location in the picture as Lan Xu's new dormitory, because the decoration was exactly the same as her apartment.
Lan Xu sat on the sofa with a beaming smile, greeted the camera, and then began to answer a stack of question cards one by one.
"Thank you everyone for your concern. It's true that I've changed companies. Regarding my future career path, I had disagreements with GIGABYTE Entertainment, and we amicably terminated our contract after receiving the exorbitant compensation. I've now signed a five-year contract with my new company, Starry Sky Films. Both the company and I believe my creative work has reached a plateau, so we've arranged activities for me, including a study tour to Hong Kong." When Lan Xu mentioned the exorbitant compensation, his expression became slightly unnatural, but when he brought up the study tour, his anticipation returned.
"Because I am not satisfied with the content of the album, the release of the new album will be postponed. I hope my fans can understand my willfulness. When I return from my studies abroad, I will bring you new works."
Lan Xu paused again, then showed a slightly embarrassed expression, lowered her head slightly, and lowered her voice shyly: "Well, I know that my participation in idol dramas at my previous company disappointed the fans. My acting skills are not very good, but acting does make me feel quite interesting. I have already applied for more professional acting courses at my new company, and I will start to hone my acting skills from small roles. I hope everyone can give me a few years to slowly hone my skills."
After answering the first question, Lan Xu changed to a different question card. His expression instantly became extremely strange and awkward, with a hint of suppressed laughter in addition to these emotions.
He barely managed to read the question on the card aloud, and finally couldn't help but cover his mouth and start to chuckle.
"So you guys really think those ridiculous rumors are true? The pregnancy test results are my parents'—okay, it's a bit too early, but I have some good news to announce: I'm going to be a big brother!" Lan Xu clasped his hands together in front of the screen, his face full of anticipation. "It has to be a beautiful little sister. I've been dreaming for years about being able to hold my little sister in one arm and take her out to play."
……What!
This time, even Jiang Mingyue was shocked by Gu Yifan's arrangement.
There really is a child?
