Inside the room.
Zhang Shanghua poured Lin Qinghe a glass of water, sat beside her, and asked with confusion, "Qinghe, what did you mean by what you just said? And the paparazzi outside filming, do we really not need to deal with him?"
Lin Qinghe nodded. "Mm, no need to bother with him. What we need to do now is get a paternity test."
"Paternity test?" Zhang Shanghua was even more bewildered.
Lin Qinghe said, "Exactly. The news will definitely be full of nonsense tomorrow. We don't need to worry about it. Let it ferment for a few days. Explaining it in other ways won't be believed, and it's troublesome. A direct paternity test will clearly show our relationship, and it will be easier and faster to shut everyone up!"
Zhang Shanghua looked enlightened. "Right! This is the most direct and effective way, and it can also be used to slap back at those people online who are badmouthing you!"
Lin Qinghe smiled and agreed, "Exactly, that's the idea."
Zhang Shanghua, thinking that he could openly acknowledge Lin Qinghe, excitedly said, "Your dad knows! Dad will contact someone to arrange the paternity test right away. Then I'll tell everyone that you are Dad's precious daughter!"
"Mm." Lin Qinghe's eyes flickered, and she continued, "Dad, I've been a bit too tired these past few days and want to rest at home. The filming of 'Ask the Heavens'..."
Zhang Shanghua immediately said, "It's okay! Dad will personally call Director Wang and tell him that your scenes will be postponed. You rest at home for a few days!"
"Okay, thank you, Dad."
"Then Dad will go upstairs to tidy up your room. You wait here. After I finish cleaning the room, Dad will cook for you."
Zhang Shanghua went upstairs in a good mood. Lin Qinghe sat on the sofa in the living room, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, a smile unconsciously curving her lips.
She hoped the news released by the paparazzi tomorrow would make You Rong misunderstand her more deeply. Because the deeper the misunderstanding, the more guilt You Rong would feel when it was resolved, and the neglected emotions would become more intense.
When You Rong misunderstood her relationship with Zhang Shanghua, she clearly saw the anger in his eyes. She didn't believe You Rong had no feelings for her at all. This was a good opportunity to push him.
The more Lin Qinghe thought about it, the better she felt. She was confident about completing the mission in this world.
Despite her happiness, Lin Qinghe slightly lowered her gaze and clenched her fist.
Did she hit You Rong too hard just now? Her own hand hurt...
Lin Qinghe shook off the chaotic thoughts in her mind and muttered, "Forget it, I didn't do it on purpose. It's all for the mission..."
In the crew of "Ask the Heavens," Lin Qinghe claimed to have suddenly left due to an emergency and could no longer continue filming. Since most of You Rong's scenes were with her, he could only be delayed as well.
You Rong's dressing room.
Hu Xiaobei looked at the slap mark on You Rong's face and cautiously said, "Brother... Director Wang said that Sister Qinghe had a sudden emergency and went to another engagement, and won't be back to the set for a few days. Your scenes can only be postponed. So... we don't have any filming today. Should we go back to the hotel now?"
Hu Xiaobei wasn't stupid. He could guess that something must have happened between You Rong and Lin Qinghe for her to suddenly leave the set.
You Rong grunted with a dark expression and got up, walking out of the dressing room.
You Rong returned to his hotel room and sat on the sofa. He closed his eyes, his expression weary, and the scene from not long ago replayed uncontrollably in his mind.
Lin Qinghe's pained expression, trying to hold back tears, looking at him in disbelief.
You Rong was filled with regret, wanting to slap himself. He had made a mistake. But she had done it all for him, she liked him so much, so much that she would go to such lengths. And he had said those awful things to her. How heartbroken must she be?
But thinking about Lin Qinghe's relationship with Zhang Shanghua... You Rong's chest tightened with pain.
Had he fallen in love with Lin Qinghe?
