Chapter 195 You Are the Most Important
Reading Settings
Su Xi hung up the phone and turned to leave when Hua Qing suddenly appeared in front of her, seemingly out of nowhere.
"Xi'er, who are you talking to on the phone?"
Su Xi was startled. "You heard everything?"
"Um."
Hua Qing squinted, staring at her mysteriously. "What child's father? Are you secretly... pregnant behind my back?"
When Su Xi saw Hua Qing nod, she immediately sensed something was wrong.
I thought Lele's identity had been exposed, but I never expected Hua Qing to say this.
She breathed a huge sigh of relief. "Pregnant? No way."
"real?"
Hua Qing looked incredulous.
As soon as she arrived, she heard Su Xi talking about the child, and her expression was somewhat heavy.
Her first thought was that Su Xi was pregnant.
“If anyone’s going to get pregnant, it’ll be you first,” Su Xi said, her lips twitching in exasperation. “You and Si Shao are like conjoined twins; you’re bound to get pregnant sooner or later.”
Hua Qing: "What conjoined twins? We haven't done that for several days."
"Is Young Master Si failing?"
Su Xi looked surprised.
Hua Qing: "...Your Zhou Shaocai is no good."
Um……
Is Zhou Jingming not good enough?
Who is the man who has been tormenting her half to death these past few days?
Su Xi didn't have time to chat with Hua Qing about these things, so she waved her hand to leave, but Hua Qing called her back, "Wait, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"Is there anything else?"
"Are you really planning to promote Su Rou?"
Hua Qing was observing the filming process.
Even though all the shots were of Su Xi, she deliberately spread the camera out and included Su Rou in the shots.
This is clearly an attempt to help Su Rou make a comeback.
Su Rou's reputation is now ruined.
No company will ever sign her.
Turning things around is harder than climbing to heaven.
But this charity event is an opportunity.
By getting involved, Su Rou can take this opportunity to clear her name, making it much easier for her to return to the screen.
Su Xi stopped in her tracks without turning around. "This is the children's wish."
"Don't even try. If you don't agree, how will Su Rou have a chance?"
Hua Qing, in any case, didn't believe it.
Su Xi didn't explain further, waving her hand, "Our ultimate goal is to film this charity event well. I don't care whether Su Rou can turn her life around and clear her name."
Previously, she did indeed want to kill Su Rou.
She did have her own reasons for this shoot.
Now that she knows Su Rou is Lele's biological mother, she suddenly wants to give Su Rou a chance.
If Su Rou can truly repent, she can let bygones be bygones.
But what if Su Rou continues to cause trouble...?
She can elevate someone, and she can also bring them down.
...
Su Rou was fine. After drinking some glucose and resting for a while, she insisted on getting up to continue filming with the children.
Su Xi continued to use the excuse of rest to give Su Rou more screen time.
Watching Su Rou get along well with the children, especially treating Lele with great care, she suddenly felt that Su Rou had a bit of the qualities of a mother.
Just then, Zhou Jingming called.
Tell her that he is on his way to the orphanage.
After filming is over, I'll take her back to the Zhou family home for dinner.
Su Xi asked curiously, "Why are you having a get-together all of a sudden?"
"Zhou Jing is back."
Zhou Jingming confessed the truth.
Su Xi frowned.
Zhou Jing, why did she come back here all this time when she's been abroad?
Perhaps because he hadn't heard from her for a while, Zhou Jingming thought she was unhappy. "If you don't want to go, then we won't go."
"There's no one who doesn't want to go."
Su Xi came to her senses and asked, "Has she finished her studies?"
Su Xi and Zhou Jing have never gotten along since they were children.
Zhou Jing and Su Rou get along well.
He rarely had contact with Su Xi.
After Su Rou went missing, Zhou Jing, like the Su family, shifted all the blame onto her.
The Su family abused her.
Zhou Jing bullied her at school.
She even encouraged her classmates to play all sorts of pranks on her.
During that period, Su Xi suffered a mental breakdown and almost committed suicide.
After graduating from university, Su Xi entered the entertainment industry at a young age.
In an attempt to suppress her, Zhou Jing spread all sorts of rumors and scandals about her, causing her to fall to the point where she had no advertising opportunities to shoot.
But then, for reasons unknown, Zhou Jing suddenly went abroad.
Five years have passed since that departure.
Having not seen this person for so long, Su Xi almost forgot that Zhou Jingming had a younger sister.
“Yes,” Zhou Jingming’s voice was filled with heartache. “I failed to protect you before, which is why she bullied you. But this time, I will never let her hurt you in the slightest again.”
Su Xi was deeply moved. "She's your sister, how could you bear to part with her?"
"In my heart, you are the most important."
As she spoke, Su Xi looked up and clearly saw the man standing directly in front of her.
The evening sun bathed him in its glow, making his figure appear even more upright.
His handsome, otherworldly face seemed to have stepped out of a painting; Su Xi couldn't look away at him after just one glance.
Even as Zhou Jingming walked up to her, she was still holding her phone.
"Am I good-looking?"
Zhou Jingming leaned down and smiled at her.
Su Xi recovered her senses and punched him speechlessly, "Narcissistic."
Zhou Jingming took the opportunity to grab her wrist and kiss it. "Are you done filming?"
"That's about it."
Su Xi's gaze fell ahead, and all she could hear were the sounds of children playing.
Zhou Jingming sat down next to her and immediately spotted Su Rou in the crowd. His expression changed abruptly. "Why is she here too?"
“She is now a volunteer at the orphanage. This charity event records the real situation of the entire orphanage, and it is inevitable that she will be photographed.”
Even Su Xi herself didn't believe these words when they were spoken.
Moreover, it was Zhou Jingming.
"The children all like her now, so we can't let them down."
Su Xi hesitated for a moment, but finally brought up Lele's background, "Have you ever wondered what kind of people Lele's parents are?"
Zhou Jingming certainly has.
After learning about Lele's situation, he had Yuan Shen secretly search for Lele's family.
But there was still no news.
Having spent so much time with Lele, he could tell.
Lele longs for the company of her family.
That's why he initially had the idea of bringing Lele to his side.
"What if I've already found it?" Su Xi's voice, though seemingly close, sounded ethereal.
Zhou Jingming's expression changed. "Who is it?"
Su Xi pointed ahead and said, "Don't you think Lele looks a lot like Su Rou?"
Her mention of it gave Zhou Jingming a clue.
Compared to Su Rou, Zhou Jingming felt that Lele resembled Su Xi more.
Su Rou is ruthless and vicious.
Xi'er, on the other hand, is righteous, kind, and gentle.
Lele is such a lovely child, how could she possibly be Su Rou's child?
“I didn’t want to believe it either, but the DNA results show that Lele is indeed Su Rou’s daughter.” Su Xi opened the report to show him. “When Su Rou first debuted, she had relationships with a group of men, and Lele got pregnant at that time.”
Zhou Jingming learned these things when he investigated Su Rou.
Su Rou is a woman who doesn't know her place.
If Li Xuemei hadn't spent money to build her reputation back then, how could she have possibly made it into the top tier?
He glanced at the report, his face grim. "Does Su Rou know about this?"
