Chapter 102: Fake Daughter in the Entertainment Industry
"I don't mean anything else, I just feel...uneasy."
Le Tiansheng parked the car on the side of the road and said this to Kong Yunting who was about to get off.
Although he passively accepted Chen Xueqing as his stepmother, he still couldn't help feeling guilty for stealing the little guy's things.
Especially after knowing that she had been thinking about "Mom" for so many years, this sense of guilt and remorse sometimes even made him feel self-loathing.
Obviously he discovered the truth so early, and obviously he had been secretly observing her for so many years...
Why didn't you go up to her earlier? Why didn't you tell her secretly that I knew where your mother was?
I have to wait until now. If I move forward, I have no reason or status, and if I retreat, I feel unwilling to do so.
Kong Yunting paused, said nothing, got out of the car, closed the door, and turned to leave. Le Tiansheng sat in the car for a long time without moving. He knew that the brotherly relationship of decades had finally cracked.
Who makes them unwilling to let go?
"Let go?"
Xie Yan had a cold face and his eyes were so deep that one could not see the bottom. He just stared quietly at Jiang Hanying who called him out.
"What do you mean by that? What do you mean by letting me let go of Ranran?"
Jiang Hanying scratched her hair irritably, her tone a little anxious:
"Ran Ran is an adult now. It's time for her to have her own social circle. You can't always keep such a strict watch on her! Let her go and try her luck, right? You can't keep her under your wings forever, right? She'll always have to make friends...even fall in love and get married!"
Why did he bring up this? It was because just now at the dinner table, Feng Hao, for some reason, suddenly mentioned to Su Youran that he had found a driving instructor and asked her when she would be free to learn.
What did Xie Yan say?
"I have to film for the next two months, and school will start after filming. Ranran doesn't have time, so I won't bother you. If she wants to learn, I'll teach her later."
Feng Hao was unhappy, but the person who was speaking was his beloved's father, so what could he do? He could only hold back his rebuttal.
Not only him, but anyone could see that Su Youran was also a little unhappy. That's why Jiang Hanying said this.
Unfortunately, Xie Yan couldn't listen at all. He was already quite stimulated by Ranran's initiative to hug Lu Yichuan. Moreover, during his meal, there were "flies" buzzing around to show their courtesy, which almost made him suffer from indigestion.
Now Jiang Hanying is still talking about love and marriage. Isn't this adding fuel to the fire?
Xie Yan sneered:
"Are you saying this for Ranran, or for your own selfish reasons?"
Jiang Hanying's face froze, and he looked away. Xie Yan took two steps forward, and the two of them were so close that they could almost touch each other with a raised hand.
He lowered his voice and spoke word by word:
"You have to know that even if Ranran wants to fall in love, it will never be with you. Uncle Jiang!"
Jiang Hanying suddenly raised his head and grabbed Xie Yan by the collar, pulling until his knuckles turned white:
"Thank you Yan!"
When viewed from behind, the two men appear to be of similar height and build, both tall and straight as pine trees. They are so close to each other, as if they are whispering something. Anyone with a slightly "corrupt" bent would think something wrong.
Two staff members who were using the toilet passed by and were frightened when they saw this scene. They made eyes at each other and walked past the corner, not daring to disturb them.
But he didn't know that the atmosphere between the two "ambiguous" people was becoming more and more tense.
Xie Yan's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and his eyes shot straight at Jiang Hanying like a sharp sword:
"Did I say something wrong? Just because I didn't say it doesn't mean I don't know! Focus on your thoughts. If Ranran sees it..."
The corner of his mouth raised a hint of sarcasm:
"Believe me, she will definitely avoid you for the rest of her life!"
Jiang Hanying's hand loosened involuntarily, and he looked a little stunned. Xie Yan held that hand and slowly removed it from his collar, his eyes gradually becoming complicated:
"I really treat you as a brother, closer than my own brothers. If you can give up those inappropriate thoughts, we can still be brothers. Otherwise..."
He looked melancholy and exhausted. The word "emotion" is the most exhausting, no matter what kind of emotion it is.
Xie Yan patted Jiang Hanying on the shoulder and turned to leave, but heard the other party say in a hoarse voice:
"You're talking about me, what about you?"
Jiang Hanying's gaze fell on Xie Yan's slightly trembling hands and he closed his eyes:
"If I were to say who is the most shameful, it should be you, right? Thank you, Dad!"
Xie Yan froze in place, and after a long while he said:
"Don't judge others based on your own mistakes."
Jiang Hanying just stood there, watching Xie Yan walk away step by step, muttering three words to himself:
"I hope so..."
After Jiang Hanying left, Gao Yin and Sun Shuyang came out from the corner. Gao Yin breathed a sigh of relief:
“Finally left!”
Oh my god, it was so scary. Actually, they arrived first and just wanted to come out to get some fresh air and smoke a cigarette. Who knew that just as they were about to go back, they ran into Xie Yan and Jiang Hanying coming over one after another.
Before they could go out to greet them, the situation over there looked strange. To avoid embarrassment, Gao Yin and Sun Shuyang had no choice but to continue hiding.
Gao Yin couldn't help but ask Sun Shuyang curiously:
"Were they arguing just now?"
The two men spoke very quietly and they were several steps away from each other, so I couldn't hear what they said specifically, but I could see their movements and expressions clearly.
They're obviously arguing about something!
Gao Yin sighed:
"My cousin has never had any gossip or scandals over the years, and he doesn't have any close friends or confidants. He only has Xie Yan as his good brother. My mom suspected that they were having an affair before... After all, it's too abnormal for a man in his thirties to not even have a woman around him! Who knew they would have a conflict now? Why?"
Sun Shuyang stared at the direction the two people left in a daze. Although he didn't hear clearly what they were saying, he still heard a few scattered words occasionally, such as "Of course", "love", "dirty"...
He lowered his eyes, hiding the thoughtful look in them.
The first dinner of the crew ended in a very strange atmosphere. The wine that Xie Yan brought was not wasted. It was all finished by him, Jiang Hanying and the angry Feng Hao.
Except for Feng Hao who looked a little flushed and wobbled a little when he walked, Xie Yan and Jiang Hanying were still calm and composed, and they didn't look like they had drunk almost a bottle of wine.
However, Gao Yin, the cousin, was still worried and drove Jiang Hanying back personally.
Sun Shuyang wanted to send Xie Yan and Su Youran away, but Xie Yan refused:
"The designated driver has arrived."
Sun Shuyang did not insist, and watched them get in the car and drive away. He turned around and saw Han Qizheng holding Feng Hao, who was waving his arms and talking about something, with an impatient look on his face. Out of politeness, he stepped forward and asked:
"Do you need help?"
Han Qizheng smiled subconsciously and declined his kindness:
"No, thank you."
Lin Guangzhu stayed until the end, and only then he breathed a sigh of relief after everyone else had left. Oh my God, this meal was really not eatable. He will never come out for dinner parties again next time!
He turned around and prepared to go back to the hotel booked by the crew, but he bumped into a stumbling figure as soon as he turned around.
“Ouch!”
The figure was knocked backwards, and Lin Guangzhu instinctively stretched out his hand to help, but as if he remembered something, he paused and then retracted his hand, not forgetting to look around secretly.
Today's dinner party is not a secret. I'm afraid the paparazzi have already received the news. There might be people waiting nearby. It's better to be careful.
Zhou Yan sat down on the ground with a plop. The severe pain made her unable to control her expression for a moment, and her face was a little distorted.
This development is wrong!
The scene was a bit awkward for a moment. The staff and some extras who had not left yet were gathered in twos and threes chatting, but when they heard the noise, they all looked over here.
Wang Rui was stunned for a few seconds, then rushed over and helped Zhou Yan up:
"Are you okay? Did you drink too much?"
She bowed shyly to Lin Guangzhu who frowned slightly:
"I'm sorry, Brother Lin, Yanyan is drunk. I apologize to you on her behalf!"
Lin Guangzhu's agent saw something was wrong and ran over:
"What's wrong?"
Lin Guangzhu waved his hand:
"It's okay. I'm drunk."
Then he smiled at Wang Rui, who looked nervous:
"Don't be so nervous, it's just a small accident. Take your friend back quickly, it's getting late. Don't miss work tomorrow if you can't get up. The director will be angry."
Obviously they were treated as ordinary staff members.
Wang Rui nodded repeatedly, and the agent turned around and looked at them warily, as if trying to remember their appearance, before following Lim Kwang-soo away.
Wang Rui then looked at the stunned Zhou Yan and asked with concern:
"Yan Yan, are you feeling dizzy? Can I take you back?"
Zhou Yan broke away from her support and managed to curl her lips:
"Fortunately, I am much more sober after the fall... No need to send me off, I can do it on my own. Thank you, Sister Ruirui."
Before Wang Rui could speak, she heard a voice calling her from not far away:
"Wang Rui, aren't you leaving yet? It will be too late if you delay any longer."
"Hey, here I come!"
Wang Rui turned back to respond and looked at Zhou Yan hesitantly:
"You really don't need me to send you off?"
Zhou Yan shook her head, said a few words and walked to the other side. She rented a house near the crew, and the daily rent was several times higher than her salary.
But there was no way out, her home was too far away, and her mother did not agree with her entering the entertainment industry, so she left the industry under the pretext of working as a summer job to train herself.
Because she was not used to living with others, Zhou Yan rented a single room, which was more expensive.
Fortunately, her stepfather was a generous man and always cared for her. He gave her a lot of pocket money in private so that she could afford her rent.
Zhou Yan walked back with steady steps. Don't be impatient. There is no reward without hard work. The initial investment is necessary...
Wang Rui was still staring at Zhou Yan's back worriedly when someone gently pulled her:
"Silly boy, why do you care about her? Be careful or she might sell you out and ask you to help her count the money!"
