Chapter 104: Fake Daughter in the Entertainment Industry
In the bathroom, steam was rising and mist was lingering. Xie Yan stood under the shower with his head lowered, letting the water wash him from head to toe.
The water droplets flowed down from the top of his head, passing over his sculpted cheeks, his flaring pectoral muscles, his perfectly shaped eight-pack abs, and then his perfect mermaid line, until they disappeared into a hidden corner.
"You are the most shameful person, right?"
Jiang Hanying's words kept echoing in Xie Yan's mind. With a "bang", he punched the wall hard, gasped heavily, and rested his forehead against it.
"dad?"
Su Youran stood outside the bathroom door and knocked. Her voice was a little distorted, but Xie Yan could still clearly sense her worry:
"Dad, are you okay?"
Xie Yan wiped the water drops off his face and raised his voice:
"It's okay, I'll be out in a minute."
He pulled out a bath towel from the shelf nearby, wiped himself roughly, put on a T-shirt and shorts casually, and walked out of the bathroom.
Su Youran sat on the carpet with her back against the end of the bed, looking down at her phone. The TV in the room was on, but the volume was turned very low.
Xie Yan accidentally glanced at it and saw that it was a variety show from NH. He paused while wiping his hair, and his mood, which had just improved a little, fell again:
“Watching Heechul’s show?”
Su Youran’s slender white fingers tapped on the screen, as if she was texting someone. After she finished, she raised her head and responded to Xie Yan’s words:
"Well, Heechul told me that I was mentioned in this episode and asked me to watch it when I have time."
She frowned slightly, still looking a little worried:
"Dad, did you get bumped in there just now? Why was there such a loud noise?"
Xie Yan felt uncomfortable for a moment:
"No, I just accidentally knocked the shower gel off."
He sat down next to Su Youran and asked her:
"How long have you been here? Aren't you sleepy at this late hour? You have a big part to play tomorrow..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by her actions. Su Youran touched Xie Yan’s wet hair and stood up with a look of disapproval on her face:
"Dad usually only blames me, why doesn't he remember when it comes to me? It's so uncomfortable if I don't blow dry my hair!"
After plugging in the hair dryer, Su Youran sat on the bed. This height was just right for helping Xie Yan blow dry his hair.
Amid the buzzing sound of the hair dryer, Xie Yan felt the gentle force on his head and couldn't help but close his eyes slightly. How nice it would be if it could always be like this...
She doesn't grow up, he doesn't grow old, and the two of them will be together forever...
"Dad, are you unhappy today?"
Su Youran held the hair dryer in one hand and stroked Xie Yan's slightly hard hair with the other, and asked hesitantly.
Xie Yan opened his eyes and stared ahead, not knowing what he was thinking:
"Why do you ask?"
"I just feel like Dad is worried..."
Xie Yan grabbed Su Youran’s hand and pulled her into his arms. The hair dryer that was still working fell onto the carpet, but he didn’t care about anyone else.
"dad?"
"Why did you hug Lu Yichuan then?"
Su Youran and Xie Yan spoke at the same time, the former was surprised and caught off guard, while the latter was filled with repressed jealousy that he was trying hard to suppress.
Su Youran was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but burst out laughing:
"What? Is this what made Dad so unhappy all night? And he won't let me learn to drive because of this?"
Xie Yan placed his hand on the back of Su Youran's head. With a serious look in his eyes, he asked again, as if this question was extremely important to him:
"Why are you hugging him?"
The smile on Su Youran's face faded a little, and her thick and long eyelashes drooped, casting a shadow on her face:
"Dad, Brother Yichuan is fine."
Xie Yan's heart suddenly ached, and his throat became a little dry:
"You... like him?"
Su Youran looked up in surprise, but she didn’t seem surprised by his question.
“I like it!”
Xie Yan stared into her eyes closely. Those clear eyes were as pure and clean as when they first met.
Xie Yan couldn't tell what he felt at the moment. Was he relieved? But Ran Ran didn't seem to have come to her senses yet. She didn't have any romantic feelings for him.
Or was he disappointed or sad? It was precisely because of her cleanliness that he felt even more dirty.
He felt like he was caught in a vortex of contradictions. On the one hand, he thought it was good for her to be this way, simple and unpretentious, and not to be involved in any kind of love or emotional state for the rest of her life.
On the other hand, he began to feel dissatisfied. He wanted her to understand love, but he didn't want her to love someone else.
Su Youran waved her hand in confusion.
"Dad? What's wrong with you?!"
Xie Yan pressed her head into his arms to prevent her from seeing his face.
“Of course…”
"Um?"
"Do you remember what you promised Dad?"
"Which one is Dad talking about?"
"Stay with Dad forever, don't want anyone else..."
"ah?"
"Can you still do that?"
"certainly!"
"Then it's a deal, you'll always be with daddy!"
"OK!"
"Very good! Cut! Switch to the next one!"
At the shooting site, Jia Binrui shouted excitedly and kept waving the paper tube in his hand.
He felt that choosing Su Youran as the leading actress was the best thing he had ever done in his directorial career! This movie would definitely be a huge success!
Xie Yan handed the thermos cup to Su Youran:
"Drink something hot."
Su Youran smiled sweetly at him and took the cup, watching the staff coming and going.
"The next scene is my scene with my dad. I've been looking forward to it for a long time!"
Xie Yan smiled and patted her head:
"I won't let you down."
"It's still unclear who will release the water!"
Su Youran raised her head proudly. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a girl about her age approaching shyly. Her target...
Well, the glances that occasionally stole upwards seemed to be towards Xie Yan.
Su Youran turned around and pouted at Xie Yan. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Xie Yan’s face suddenly change and he rushed towards her in fear.
The people in the field who were paying attention to this side intentionally or unintentionally screamed subconsciously. At this moment, it seemed as if everything was in slow motion.
Everyone saw that the extra who seemed to be called Zhou Yan was suddenly tripped by the complicated wires under her feet, and her body fell to the side involuntarily, and she happened to collide with two staff members who were carrying a pile of large boxes.
The box on top was shaken a few times by the impact, and finally it couldn't bear the weight and fell down.
And the direction of falling...
It was exactly where Su Youran was standing!
Many people closed their eyes reflexively and dared not look anymore. It was over. The box looked heavy. It suddenly fell down...
There was a "bang" sound of a heavy object colliding with a body, followed by a man's muffled groan.
man?
When everyone looked over, they saw Xie Yan half-kneeling on the ground with his eyes half-closed and a look of pain on his face. A stream of blood was slowly flowing from his head, and the bright red color hurt people's eyes.
However, his body still held Su Youran tightly in his arms, without revealing a single bit.
“Call an ambulance!”
Jia Binrui's voice almost broke, and his roar echoed throughout the entire crew. Oh my God, how could this happen? ! And it happened to hit his head! !
If something happened...
For a moment, Jia Binrui felt that he had difficulty breathing. Panic, fear, and anger filled his mind, and his legs went weak!
Su Youran blinked blankly, and then blinked again, as if she had not reacted at all to what was happening.
She put her shaking hands around Xie Yan's back and spoke incoherently:
"Dad... Dad... Dad?"
Lu Yichuan ran over like crazy and knelt on the ground, not knowing what to do. He could only stretch out his hands, wanting to hug but not daring to:
"Ranran? Ranran! How are you?! Uncle Xie..."
The brief hug yesterday made him feel uneasy. He felt like nothing he did was right, so he simply drove over to visit the crew and gave Su Youran a surprise. He also brought her favorite cake and ordered milk tea for the entire crew.
Who knew that I would see this scene as soon as I was brought in, my heart almost stopped!
The others who had come to their senses started to make phone calls, calling for help. Fortunately, the crew had a doctor with them.
The scene was in chaos and no one noticed that in an inconspicuous corner, Zhao Yingyue's eyes were wide open with horror, she covered her mouth with one hand and held on to the wall with the other hand to barely steady her shaking body.
Xie Yan...That's Xie Yan!
She forced herself to calm down and looked at the person who was standing there in a daze as if frozen.
It was Yanyan...the culprit behind all this was her Yanyan!
What should I do? What should I do! Will Xie Yan be okay? Will Yan Yan... be okay?
Zhao Yingyue felt dizzy and almost shouted out instinctively:
"Jiahao..."
After she finished shouting, she realized that Zhou Jiahao didn't follow her. He... was in a cold war with her.
Zhao Yingyue couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground. Unfortunately, no one cared about her at this time. The doctor was dragged by the staff and stumbled over to treat Xie Yan's wound urgently.
But Su Youran was like a wounded little leopard. She held Xie Yan tightly and refused to let go. Whenever someone tried to approach her, she would stare at them warily with a fierce look in her eyes. Her body was shaking. She was panic-stricken, helpless, and afraid, but she was still trying hard to protect the person she wanted to protect. Everyone couldn't help but feel sad when seeing this.
Lu Yichuan held her shoulders and rubbed his cheek against hers, his voice choking:
"Ranran, Ranran...it's okay...it's okay! Don't be afraid...I'm here, Brother Yichuan is here...Can you let Uncle Xie go first? He's injured and needs treatment...Let him go first, okay..."
Su Youran turned a deaf ear to her. She moved her lips as if she was saying something. Lu Yichuan moved closer and heard her say:
"Dad, Dad, don't leave me... We agreed that we would be together forever..."
Lu Yichuan's nose felt sore and tears almost fell. Xie Yan, who had already fainted, seemed to have heard her call. His eyelids twitched violently, as if he tried hard to open them but had no strength:
“Of course…Of course…”
Su Youran's body trembled, and Lu Yichuan took the opportunity to hold her shoulders and hug her in his arms, holding her hands and feet to prevent her from moving, and yelled at the doctor:
“Hurry up and save them!”
The author has something to say:
I was delayed today because I chatted with a relative's child who was taking the college entrance examination. I hope all the kids taking the college entrance examination can get into the school of their choice. Xoxo
