Chapter 45: Fake Daughter in the Entertainment Industry
Su Youran sat in the spacious and bright conference room, her petite body nestled in the expensive sofa, making her face look even smaller.
There were a variety of snacks, fruits and drinks on the coffee table in front of her. She held a bottle of milk in her hand, lowered her head slightly, and drank it attentively and seriously, as if drinking milk was such an important matter.
That look made everyone sitting at the conference table lose their focus in the meeting and they kept looking at her intentionally or unintentionally.
Sitting in the main seat was Jiang Hanying, the successor of Star Shine who just graduated from Stanford University this year. He was the same age as Xie Yan and was the one who recruited Xie Yan into Star Shine.
It can be said that the two complement each other, and Xie Yan's success is inseparable from the support of Xinghui behind him. After all, it is good to lean on a big tree for shade. Although Xie Yan's background is strong enough, the strong dragon cannot suppress the local snake. In the entertainment industry, Xinghui is undoubtedly the boss.
It is much easier for it to promote or ban someone than for others.
On the other hand, Xie Yan's rise also helped Jiang Hanying secure his position as the successor. This was his first report card after joining the company, and it was close to a perfect score.
In addition to their overt relationship, the two also have a good relationship in private.
By now the work had been arranged, and seeing that no one else was focused on their work, Jiang Hanying adjourned the meeting. When everyone reluctantly left, leaving only him, Xie Yan, Miao Xingye, and Zhou Jiajia in the meeting room, he pursed in Su Youran's direction and looked at Xie Yan, asking:
"Where did you steal the children from? Why did you bring them here?"
Xie Yan didn't know how to answer. Did he say that he picked it up downstairs? He didn't know why, but the little girl seemed to have identified him. She followed him wherever he went, holding onto his clothes and refusing to let go.
Miao Xingye urged again, saying that everyone upstairs was waiting for him for a meeting, so Xie Yan had no choice but to bring her over.
Although he felt inexplicably happy, this was not a good idea. Maybe her parents were looking for her anxiously right now.
Xie Yan thought about it and suddenly felt a little sour. Humph, he would not admit that he was envious and jealous. He was just condemning irresponsible parents. She was still so young, how could he not take good care of her?
Xie Yan winked at Miao Xingye, "Don't you have a child? Go ask her who her parents are and where her home is."
Miao Xingye smiled bitterly. He had already embarrassed people downstairs once, and he didn't want to embarrass himself again. He could only look at Zhou Jiajia:
You are all girls, easy to communicate with, go ahead!
As soon as Zhou Jiajia looked up, she saw the three bosses staring at her. She chuckled twice, stood up and sat next to Su Youran. Her voice was so gentle that it almost dripped with water:
"Little boy, what's your name?"
Su Youran stopped drinking milk and turned to look at Zhou Jiajia. She smiled sweetly, with two dimples faintly visible. People couldn't help but want to poke her:
"Of course, sister, my name is Ranran."
Zhou Jiajia's eyes are full of stars:
"Of course you are so good."
Xie Yan coughed lightly in an unpleasant tone, trying to attract the little girl’s attention. Sure enough, Su Youran raised her eyes and looked at him.
He crossed his arms over his chest, trying to strike a cool pose, but his words were very gentle:
"What's your full name? And where are your parents? Why are you here alone?"
Su Youran lowered her eyes and stopped talking. The smile on her face disappeared. Instead, she hugged the doll in her arms even tighter.
This "frightened" look made the other three people glare at Xie Yan. Just ask him nicely, did you scare her?
Even Jiang Hanying's eyes revealed a hint of disapproval. It was because this human cub was so adorable.
I guess no one can get angry at that face.
Xie Yan: ...
What did I say? I tried to be gentle. I have never spoken so softly to my two nephews!
Xie Yan felt aggrieved. He seemed like he couldn’t leave me just now downstairs, why did he change now?
Zhou Jiajia adjusted Su Youran's bangs. She had taken off her hat when she entered the meeting room.
Now that her entire face was revealed, she looked even more delicate and perfect, not like a real person.
Zhou Jiajia tried to put herself in the role of the parents. She felt that if their beloved child disappeared, they would be extremely anxious. She slowed down her tone and spoke more gently:
"Mom and Dad are missing, Ranran, they must be very anxious and worried, doesn't Ranran want to find Mom and Dad?"
Su Youran glanced at Zhou Jiajia, who was looking encouraging, and then at Xie Yan, who was looking aggrieved but unable to hide his worry. She held the baby's arm with her little hand, as if asking it to give her courage. Seeing this, one's heart softened. But then the little girl said something very unexpected:
"Mom sent me here. She said Dad is here."
She pointed at Xie Yan with her soft little hand, her expression full of anxiety and uneasiness about the unknown:
"dad!"
"puff……"
Jiang Hanying, who was drinking tea, spat it all out at one gulp, and the tea splashed onto Xie Yan's clothes beside him, but no one cared.
“Ahem!!”
Miao Xingye didn't drink the water, but choked on his own saliva.
Zhou Jiajia opened her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief.
Xie Yan stood up straight, knocking the chair behind him over with a bang. Seeing Su Youran shrink her shoulders, he thought he had frightened her, so he quickly lifted the chair up and even patted it, saying soothingly:
"It's okay, don't be afraid. I was careless, I didn't mean to be mean to you."
He took a few quick steps, walked around the long desk, and squatted in front of Su Youran:
"Little boy...Oh no, Ranran, daddy can't yell randomly."
I don't even have a girlfriend, how can I have such a big child? Please don't scare me, okay?
Although it seems nice to have a daughter like this...
Xie Yan thought it was just a kid who was confused and talking nonsense. He was a little panicked at first, then amused, and there was even a hint of inexplicable joy mixed in.
She seemed even cuter when he looked at her up close. Xie Yan tried to hold back, but couldn’t help but reach out and poke Su Youran’s chubby face.
Su Youran was poked and leaned back, looking confused. Xie Yan couldn't help but poke her on the other side.
Su Youran opened her eyes wide and blinked her long eyelashes, as if she didn’t understand what was going on.
Xie Yan's hands were moving again. He seemed to understand why those unscrupulous parents always teased their two little nephews.
It’s fun to tease something so stupid and ugly, not to mention the cutest human cub in front of him.
It's so cute that it's melting.
Unfortunately, his evil hands were stopped by Jiang Hanying. He looked at Xie Yan with a half-smile on his face and said, "You can do this to this face, don't you feel guilty?"
Zhou Jiajia didn't care about her identity and glared at Xie Yan fiercely. Look, look, your little face has been poked red by you!
Xie Yan looked at the two obvious finger marks on the white and tender face like a bun, and laughed dryly in guilt.
Well... he really didn't know that the cub's skin was so delicate. He didn't use any strength at all.
However, Su Youran seemed to feel Xie Yan's love from these actions. She was obviously much more relaxed and smiled at Xie Yan foolishly.
Xie Yan rubbed her hair lovingly:
"Little fool."
If she smiles at the person who bullied her after being bullied, she is nothing but a fool.
Su Youran pouted unhappily and took out the file bag from the doll's arms and handed it to Xie Yan.
Xie Yan pointed at himself and asked for confirmation:
"For me?"
Su Youran nodded cutely:
"Mom told you."
Xie Yan paused as he took the file bag:
"Have you seen me?"
Su Youran's eyes sparkled with a hint of excitement and anticipation:
"My mother showed me the photo, and I didn't make a mistake. Xie Yan, that's Xie Yan, and I didn't remember it wrong."
Miao Xingye also came over. Why did he feel like something big was going to happen?
Xie Yan touched Su Youran’s little head again before opening the file bag. Inside was a letter and a small transparent sealed bag. A few strands of hair could be seen inside.
Jiang Hanying's expression also became serious. He watched Xie Yan open the letter, on which was "What happened" written by Chen Xueqing.
It turned out that when Xie Yan was eighteen years old, he was framed and forced to drink unclean wine at a celebration banquet. He had sex with someone, but when he woke up, the person was gone.
Xie Yan was confused at the time and didn't see the man's face clearly. The hotel surveillance camera was broken, so he couldn't find any clues. Xie Yan couldn't find anything, so he put it out of his mind, thinking that if the other party had a purpose, he would come to him on his own initiative.
But unexpectedly, year after year, there was no movement, and Xie Yan almost forgot about the matter. That person didn't come to find him, but gave him a daughter this big? !
The letter said that it was just an accident that night and she wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, but who knew that she was actually pregnant.
She was young and didn't understand these things. She thought it was irregular menstruation. It was not until she went to the hospital after her belly became very big that she found out that she was pregnant. But she couldn't have an abortion because she was too pregnant. She also felt sorry for the child, so she gave birth to the child.
She hadn’t originally intended to tell Xie Yan, but now she was getting married and his partner didn’t know she had a child, so she could only send the child to him.
And pointed out that if you don't believe what she said, you can do a paternity test. She has already installed the hair, and the child is afraid of pain, so those are enough for him to test several times.
At the end of the letter, she begged Xie Yan to raise the child well and not look for her, saying that she owed the child, and she promised that she would never look for them again.
Xie Yan was so angry that he tightened his grip on the letter. What kind of mother is this? Is there anyone who loves her children so much?
Come find him when you get pregnant. Even though you won't marry her, it's better than letting the child never see his father from birth, right?
It is even more cruel now. Just because you are getting married, you throw your precious child to someone else. Have you ever thought about what will happen to the child if the other person does not accept him?
Have you ever thought about what would happen if someone else already has a partner?
From her decision to give birth to the child, to raising the child alone, to finally abandoning the child, it was all her decision. She can do whatever she wants. How can there be such a selfish mother!
The author has something to say:
See you tomorrow babies
By the way, I should mention that there is a mistake in the first chapter. Ranran should be called Xie Youran. Chen Xueqing named him Su because his biological father's surname is Su, but Xie Yan thought it was his mother's surname, so he took his mother's surname. Therefore, after returning to the Su family, the name announced to the public will be Xie Youran, because when naming his father, he didn't think of giving him the surname Su (covering his face). So he just made a mistake. Hehe
