Chapter 31 The Guilty Child Has Three Fathers, Guess Which One Is...
The balcony door was closed. Qiao Zheng looked up at the sky and told a story to Qiao Zhizheng alone.
“Art comes from life.”
Lou Heng and Xia Cangshu are both typical children who are not loved by their mothers or fathers. The only difference is that Lou Heng's parents gave her a lot of money, while Xia Cangshu's parents left her with a lot of debt.
When Xia Cangshu met Lou Heng, he was not called Xia Cangshu, but Xia Xiaoxing.
The bridge that connects two people from different worlds is that thin admission letter from Huadu University.
Xia Xiaoxing and Lou Heng share the same major and dormitory. There are four people in the dormitory. Except for Xia Xiaoxing, the other three are all from Huadu. Two of the roommates already know each other and automatically stay together. Lou Heng has a bed in the dormitory, but she usually lives off campus. Xia Xiaoxing keeps to herself.
A quarrel forced Lou Heng to move from the house where his parents were to the dormitory to live permanently.
The first thing Lou Heng said to Xia Xiaoxing was, "Hey, how do I get to the cafeteria?"
Lou Heng's card was suspended by his parents, who forced him to admit his mistake. Lou Heng refused to give in and returned to the dormitory. There was some money in his meal card that he had added at the beginning of the school year, so Lou Heng thought he would stay at school for a while.
This transition took an entire semester.
To Xia Xiaoxing, Lou Heng was the kind of young lady from a wealthy family with a bad temper and a delicate body - although this was a bit exaggerated, Xia Xiaoxing felt that it was very suitable for Lou Heng.
I'm not used to my new bedsheets, so I've fallen for Xia Xiaoxing's sheets, which have become soft after being washed several times. I don't eat the skin on chicken drumsticks, and I don't eat onions. I do eat garlic, but it can't be raw. I like stir-fried meat with green peppers, but I won't eat the green peppers. I want to eat oranges that have been peeled by hand, only the red flesh of jackfruit, and cucumbers that have to be cut into diamond shapes...
Why does Xia Xiaoxing know it so clearly?
Because Xia Xiaoxing changed Lou Heng's bed sheets and pillowcases, ate the crispy and oily chicken leg skin, ate the green peppers in the stir-fried green peppers with meat, peeled the oranges by hand, bought the red jackfruit, and cut the cucumbers...
Did she do all this out of love?
No, no, no! It’s because I fell in love with Lou Heng’s generosity every time he gave me money.
In Lou Heng's eyes, Xia Xiaoxing is greedy for money.
In Xia Xiaoxing's eyes, Lou Heng is delicate and difficult to please.
Both of them feel that they are from a different world than the other, yet they dislike each other and are inseparable at the same time.
Lou Heng's parents restored her card. On a starless night, Lou Heng said angrily with red eyes, "I want to be the kind of daughter they hate the most."
"I want to find a girlfriend to piss them off!"
After hearing what Lou Heng said, Xia Xiaoxing remained indifferent.
"You, be my girlfriend."
Xia Xiaoxing looked at her indifferently after hearing this.
“The kind that pays.”
Xia Xiaoxing answered without hesitation, "Okay."
The "girlfriend" that Lou Heng mentioned was just an illusion to deceive his parents, but after getting along for a long time, Lou Heng felt that Xia Xiaoxing seemed to really like him.
Xia Xiaoxing usually takes good care of Lou Heng. When Lou Heng was buried in the snow due to an avalanche, Xia Xiaoxing followed the rescue team and braved the severe cold to find Lou Heng without sleep.
Lou Heng saw Xia Xiaoxing coming to save her in a daze, and tears immediately flowed down her face.
Lou Heng thought: Since she likes me and loves me so much, I should try to like her a little, just a little bit.
While Lou Heng was hinting silently, he was waiting for Xia Xiaoxing to confess his love. He waited and waited until Xia Xiaoxing paid off the family's debts and left the country without saying a word.
At the rainy airport, Lou Heng looked at Xia Xiaoxing's back without even turning her head, and cried loudly.
Qiao Zheng stopped talking at this point. Qiao Zhizheng tried to guess, "Since then, has Mr. Lou stopped loving others and started focusing on his career?" Qiao Zhizheng deliberately lowered her tone and said in the tone of a melodramatic boss, "I must make the woman who abandoned me regret it!"
Qiao Zheng looked at Qiao Zhizheng with an indescribably complicated look. "Does Lou Heng look like he's cut off from love now? Does Xia Cangshu look like he's regretting anything?"
Qiao Zhizheng shook his head and thought for a moment, "It seems not."
Qiao Zheng pulled her inside and said, "Come on in, it's freezing outside."
Qiao Zhizheng wanted to ask Qiao Zheng how she knew about the past between Lou Heng and Xia Cangshu, but Qiao Zheng had already pulled her into the house. Qiao Zhizheng glanced at Ding Qian and said nothing more.
Ding Qian always keeps an eye on the developments on the Internet.
Xia Cangshu used the official Weibo account of "Another Me in the World" to issue an internal punishment statement. The general content was that due to improper internal management, photos of the crew's dinner were leaked. The crew members who sold the photos will be expelled from the crew and liquidated damages will be demanded. Those who bought the photos and made false statements online will be held accountable and warned by a lawyer's letter.
The official Weibo account of Hengxing Entertainment reposted the official Weibo account of "Another Me in the World" and added a note: Any false remarks against our artists will be pursued to the end by our company.
Qiao Zhizheng reasonably suspected that the person behind the official Weibo post of Hengxing Entertainment who reposted this was Lou Heng himself.
Hengxing Entertainment also carried out an internal reorganization, and those who delayed the matter out of consideration for Jin Rong's attitude, causing the situation to develop to the current state, were punished.
Ding Qian wasn't present, but someone there flattered her by relaying something Lou Heng had said at the meeting: "My original intention was for everyone to make the company better through competition, not for you to spend all day scheming, forming cliques, and holding your colleagues back."
In addition to the Weibo post it forwarded that day, Hengxing Entertainment also published a blog post with a picture. The content was simple and straightforward, with six big characters:
Our boss——Lou Heng!
Attached is a photo of Lou Heng wearing formal attire and sitting behind his desk with a serious expression. The cold light on his frameless glasses complements the cold metallic light of the four large characters "Hengxing Entertainment" behind him.
This indirectly clarified the so-called "romantic transaction" between Qiao Zhizheng and Lou Heng.
The official Weibo of Hengxing Entertainment is very lively.
——Shocked! It turns out that girls can now directly make other girls pregnant! [dog head] [dog head] [dog head]
——"The baby in Qiao Zhizheng's belly is Lou Heng's" is the funniest joke I have heard this year.
Are the requirements for being a boss this high these days? With that kind of looks and that kind of aura, she could debut in no time, right?
——Mama! It’s Mama! Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss~
——The saliva from the upstairs is dripping on my head, stop it quickly!
—Where's Qiao Zhizheng? Why did she disappear? Why doesn't her child come out and explain what's going on?
…
Not long after, Qiao Zhizheng posted a Weibo post. The picture showed a pale-faced Qiao Zhizheng holding a plate in front of her. On the plate were a slice of cucumber, a slice of potato and a slice of cooked beef. The caption read: "The child has three dads. Guess which one is his dad?"
Li Tianyi commented in the comment section - One world, one child, three dads.
When netizens clicked on Li Tianyi’s Weibo, their profile said he was an actor in “Another Me in the World”.
——Hahaha, if I eat like her, I would want to pounce on the spicy beef hot pot when I see it, and I would even lick the pot clean.
——I can understand her very well. At that time, I was losing weight, so I ate egg whites in the morning, egg yolks at noon, and the delivery guy brought me Chicken Whole Foods in the evening. I ate too many vegetable leaves, and I got up in the middle of the night and could eat five Federation of Industry and Commerce five-nut mooncakes without stopping. Can anyone understand the value of this?
—Confirmed! An unmarried actress revealed her child has three fathers, then asked uninformed netizens which one was the father. Is this a sign of moral decline or a distortion of human nature? Regarding this situation, I have only six points to make...
——Wow! Can female celebrities stop being so anxious about their body image? Isn't it better to promote healthy beauty?
—Isn't it you, the audience, who requested this? Why are you here scolding the actors?
——Without trade, there is no harm; without demand, there is no market. Before you ask the actors to do something, do you ask yourself first? Yes, okay.
——Uh uh uh, why does Qiao Zhizheng always do so much marketing? I see her every few days. I don’t like it, but I click on it.
…
This farce was over quickly. After Xia Cangshu had a tantrum in the crew, the atmosphere in the crew became very solemn for a while.
When Qiao Zhizheng walked into the set, the same words were written on the faces of everyone she met along the way - going to work is like going to a grave, and the graves are full of people.
Xia Cangshu sat behind the monitor with a sullen face, directing the scene with a sharp gaze.
When Qiao Zhizheng was acting, the lighting person seemed to be too nervous and the light shook violently.
Everyone on the set turned to look at him at the same time. He had a stone face and cold sweat was running down his forehead.
Xia Cangshu held his forehead and sighed, "Everyone take a break."
Qiao Zhizheng was surrounded by makeup artists touching up her makeup. Xia Cangshu walked to a step at the edge of the set and sat down, staring quietly at a bush of dense holly without saying a word.
Qiao Zheng squatted down beside her and handed her a can of Coke. Xia Cangshu took it without even looking up, "Thank you."
With a "sizzle", the can of Coke was opened, and Xia Cangshu tilted his head back and drank it in one gulp. The carbonated beverage flowed from his mouth into his esophagus, and the released large amount of carbon dioxide gas rushed into his nasal cavity. Xia Cangshu felt a sore nose and burped uncontrollably. After realizing his indecent behavior, he immediately covered his mouth with his hand.
Qiao Zheng laughed out loud without any hesitation.
Xia Cangshu glared at her angrily, and Qiao Zheng laughed even louder.
Xia Cangshu said coldly, "Do you know what it means to offend a director and producer on a set?"
Qiao Zheng nodded perfunctorily, "I'm ready to be bullied."
Xia Cangshu sneered, but the unspeakable depression in his heart was exhaled along with the bubbles in the Coke, and his mood calmed down a lot.
Xia Cangshu looked at Qiao Zheng with an undisguised gaze, "Every time I see you, I feel like you have everything under control, as if you know it all."
Qiao Zheng said indifferently, "Maybe."
Xia Cangshu's gaze gradually became detached, "You give me the feeling of being someone..."
Qiao Zheng pointed behind her, "Is that her?"
Xia Cangshu turned around and saw Lou Heng.
Qiao Zhizheng was standing next to Lou Heng. Qiao Zhizheng looked at him with a look of grievance and accusation in his eyes. Qiao Zhizheng felt inexplicably guilty.
