Chapter 172: Biological Mother
Ji Xincheng gave a thumbs up and smiled brightly.
Gu Shaoze propped up the table with both hands, unwilling to eat her set, and 'hummed' her in his nose, "The man's fate is so good!" Don't hesitate to annoy fans and lose their jobs, I have to protect you. ”
Ji Xincheng touched his nose with his hand uncomfortably, glanced at him cautiously, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
I wanted to laugh and laugh, but I didn't want the phone to ring again at this time, the two looked at each other at the same time, and the four big words 'Director Shen Fu' came into view, Ji Xin laughed dryly, and successfully ushered in another roll of Gu Shaoze's eyes.
couldn't control him for the time being, Ji Xincheng also planned to call Shen Fu to explain the situation, but when he saw the other party calling, he quickly avoided the balcony and picked it up.
Take the initiative to say hello: "Director, I'm Xin Cheng." ”
Shen Fu seemed to have just heard the news, and when he came up, he asked her with concern, "Xincheng, are you okay?" Are people alright? ”
"I'm fine, don't worry." then hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, director, tonight's incident may affect the announcement of our new play, so the loss caused, we can sit down and discuss it later, I can take full responsibility, I'm really sorry!" ”
"Xincheng, where do you think! I'm just calling you and Qiu Shang to ask you and Qiu Shang, this matter is very strange today, is someone targeting you, have you ever thought about it? ”
Ji Xincheng unexpectedly understood the twists and turns, and silently told him the truth, "Yes, it may be related to the person who kidnapped me last time, but I will definitely pay more attention to it in the future, and I will not let this kind of incident happen again." ”
"Do you have eyebrows? Who is doing this behind the scenes? ”
It's not that he can't believe Shen Fu, but although Ji Xincheng thinks of Si Qian in his heart, he also understands that it cannot be ruled out that the girl will take revenge on her privately for the failure of the last kidnapping incident.
After being silent for a moment, Ji Xincheng said, "Gu Shaoze went to check, and I was also curious about who would frame us like this." ”
"You and Qiu Shang didn't have much contact before taking over my play, I don't think I feel like an outsider to get the two of you together so well, Xincheng, you have to pay attention to the ...... that appear around us every day Can you wait a while? ”
Shen Fu's suddenly changed displeased tone made Ji Xincheng startled, but he quickly heard Shen Fu's apology, "I'm sorry Xincheng, I didn't mean you." "I think there are other people around him.
Ji Xincheng understood, "It's okay, I understand the director, I'll pay attention." ”
"If there's anything you need from my side, just tell me." Shen Fu said, "In addition, if there is pressure from public opinion, it is not a big problem if you want to take a break in the past two days, and I will let them get off work again." ”
This time, without waiting for Ji Xincheng to speak, Shen Fu's head was robbed of the phone.
"What's not a big problem, it's big!"
It was Han Xian'er, she was a little angry, "Ji Xincheng, I didn't expect you to be such a person!" It seems that my original worries were not unreasonable, although you are married, you really don't know the self-consciousness of the men around you! If it weren't for you giggling all day long and not knowing how to avoid suspicion, wouldn't Qiu Chamber of Commerce give up? As the old saying goes, you're a misdemeanor! You are not allowed to rest, and you don't want the whole crew to pay for your happiness! ”
"......" Compared with Han Xian'er's accusation, what surprised Ji Xincheng even more was that the two of them were still together at this point in time.
It seems that they have already lived together, thinking of Shen Fu's attention to Han Xian'er who obviously cares but always restrains it, Ji Xincheng is also in a better mood, at least there is a corner that is clean and beautiful, in this circle.
Han Xian'er's series of accusations were quickly interrupted by Shen Fu, the phone returned to him, and Ji Xincheng made a difference, and Ji Xincheng felt the embarrassment clearly through the radio waves, unwilling to continue to occupy his time, Ji Xincheng said, "It's okay director, Miss Han is actually not bad, don't blame her." It doesn't matter if I take a break or not, but I'm worried that if I join the crew tomorrow, it will affect the crew's work arrangement, so why don't I take two days off? ”
"Yes, no problem!" Shen Fu agreed, and because of Han Xian'er's unreasonableness, he comforted Ji Xincheng a few words before saying goodbye.
Ji Xincheng, who ended the call, stood silently on the balcony for a while, and waited until she noticed a slight coolness on her back before returning to the bedroom.
After a quiet moment just now, she had already prepared her energy to deal with Gu Shaoze, but she didn't expect that Gu Shaoze was sitting on the bed answering the phone at this time, obviously not having time to pay attention to her.
But when he raised his eyes and saw Ji Xincheng return to the room, he quickly found a reason to collect the line.
Throwing the phone on the bedside table, his cool gaze fell on her, and he didn't make a sound.
Ji Xincheng secretly glanced at him, but in the end he slowly moved back to the bed, lifted the quilt on his side and sat in, wanted to lie down, thought about it, and leaned on him again.
"Whose phone number?" Obviously flattering.
Gu Shaoze still had a cold face, and ripped off her hand that was intentionally or unintentionally teasing his chin, "You probably forgot, your teacher Qiu Shang is still in the company under my name, I can't care about such an artist?" ”
His eyes hung coldly between her brows.
Ji Xincheng's movements froze, straightened up and said, "Hey, don't make a distinction between public and private!" ”
He stepped forward and pinched her delicate jaw, "When will I not distinguish between public and private?" As a boss, I can't ask about the improper management of the public relations team's ability to allow artists to talk nonsense on public platforms? ”
Ji Xincheng blinked weakly, "I mean, the public relations team of 'Tomorrow's Star' is not vegetarian, and this kind of thing does not need to be asked by the big boss in person, you have a phone call in the middle of the night, why do they have to take special 'care' of Qiu Shang?" What's more, it's me who has a scandal with Qiu Shang, your wife, what does the public relations side think? ”
"What are you afraid of them?" Gu Shaoze's face was already more than one layer darker.
Ji Xincheng sighed constantly in his heart, knowing that if he continued to argue, he would only feel that he was asking for privileges for Qiu Shang, and it would not end well. Her eyes were spinning, and she decided that she could put the matter aside for the time being. After a while, I heard her ask, "I called you so many times at night, why do you keep busy?" Who did you talk to on the phone for so long? ”
She actually knew in her heart that it was part of the other party's plan, but when she asked him face-to-face, it seemed that there was a sense of picking on his weaknesses, it was best that the other party was not a woman, and it was a private matter to talk to him, otherwise it would be someone else's trick, and she didn't plan to let him go easily.
Hearing that Ji Xincheng thought about it for a long time and asked about it, Gu Shaoze's expression froze, and the fingers pinching her face couldn't help but let go, and his expression became a little more solemn.
"What's wrong, weird?" Ji Xincheng rubbed his chin, probably red, and he didn't dare to say that it hurt, seeing that Gu Shaoze was distracted, he knew that the phone call was really unusual.
Gu Shaoze looked at Ji Xincheng's gaze at this time, no longer cold, and seemed to have a trace of consideration, as if he was thinking about whether to tell her about this.
Ji Xincheng sensed it sensitively, and approached him and said, "What's wrong, tell me." ”
"Someone called me and told me about Shang Xiaoyue." Gu Shaoze said, "It's very detailed. ”
"Shang Xuan's adoptive mother? Did you find her? Apparently, Ji Xincheng's focus has been attracted by the name.
"Well, Shang Xiaoyue is my uncle's college classmate, both of them stayed in the university city after graduation, their relationship is stable, and they have been living together, probably because of each other's family background, Uncle never mentioned it to his family, only said that he wanted to stay there and continue to study in graduate school. He is indeed in graduate school, but he is already in the workforce. Later, Shang Xiaoyue became pregnant, and my uncle had to take her home, but my grandparents firmly disagreed, and privately wanted to use money to let Shang Xiaoyue take the child away. The uncle broke off relations with his family after knowing this and no longer corresponded, so he decided to live alone with Shang Xiaoyue, but Shang Xiaoyue did not agree, and disappeared not long after. ”
Ji Xinluo was surprised, and held back for a long time before asking Gu Shaoze, "Has your family always cared so much about the woman's family background?" ”
"Caring definitely does, but most of the time, once they have children, many families like ours will choose to give in appropriately. But this incident back then was said to be because my grandmother was too strong. ”
"After that, Uncle kept looking for someone, but he never found it?"
"Almost, at that time, the uncle cut off contact with the family, the Gu family will not help him anymore, he is alone and powerless, and finding someone who intends to hide is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack."
Ji Xincheng thought of Gu Nan, he was undoubtedly an elegant gentleman, but when the loneliness and sorrow that few outsiders knew about these years precipitated between his eyebrows, she was still distressed, and sighed: "I really don't know, how did Uncle Xiao come over alone all these years." ”
"Uncle has been looking in China for two years and found nothing, he thought that the two had an agreement to go abroad, so he reconciled with his family and used his family's funds to study abroad, but in fact he continued to look for Shang Xiaoyue."
"In this way, he has never given up looking for Shang Xiaoyue, which means that he should not recognize the wrong person, and Shang Xuan is by no means a public face, you look at your uncle's behavior at Si Qian's wedding at that time, is it really possible, Shang Xuan is his daughter? The age difference is also reasonable. ”
Without waiting for Gu Shaoze to speak, Ji Xincheng refuted his speculation, "But Shang Xuan did grow up in an orphanage, and she was adopted when she was a teenager, and her adoptive mother adopted her and suddenly disappeared a few years later, if it is really her daughter, it doesn't make sense." ”
It makes sense for a while, but it doesn't make sense for a while, compared to Ji Xincheng's tangled appearance, Gu Shaoze's expression can be called as calm as water.
He said, "The other party said that Shang Xiaoyue did not go abroad, but just went to another city and gave birth to a daughter there. Unmarried and pregnant, plus she is alone, and if she does not put the child in a welfare home, maybe both their mother and daughter will not survive. ”
"So, Shang Xuan is indeed Shang Xiaoyue's biological daughter?"
Gu Shaoze nodded.
Ji Xincheng opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and couldn't close it for a long time.
Gu Shaoze continued, "Shang Xiaoyue first put her daughter in a church, and the income from her part-time job was basically subsidized to the church, but then the person in charge of the church left China, and the church lost its effective management, so she transferred her daughter to an orphanage." It wasn't until she had some savings and her living conditions improved that she was able to take her daughter back from the orphanage in the form of adoption. ”
"Then why did she disappear later, did that person tell you?" Ji Xincheng became nervous.
"After bringing her daughter back, Shang Xiaoyue planned to tell her the truth when she became an adult, but Shang Xiaoyue suffered from Alzheimer's syndrome in her forties due to overwork or stress in her early years, and in order not to become a burden to her daughter, she chose to run away from home on the eve of her illness."
After knowing the ins and outs, Ji Xincheng was very sad for Shang Xuan.
Unexpectedly, Shang Xuan's biological mother, who had been obsessed with her in the past, had always been by her side and had always loved her.
Joyful and sad, happy that Shang Xuan has not lost her mother's love, sad is that this love may become a memory to accompany her for life.
In Gu Shaoze's inquiry, Ji Xincheng suddenly came back to his senses, "The other party knows Shang Xiaoyue's situation so well, he must also know where she is?" ”
Sure enough, Gu Shaoze nodded.
Ji Xincheng got this reply and hesitated again.
"How?" Gu Shaoze asked.
Ji Xincheng suddenly couldn't think of herself when she mentioned her orphanage experience to Shang Xuan in the past, Shang Xuan pretended to be strong and useless. After a long time, she raised her head and asked Gu Shaoze, "Should we tell Shang Xuan this news?" ”
He replied casually, "Didn't she refuse to associate with you?" ”
"She said so, and the mobile phone number has not been changed, so it is not impossible for me to call her." But she added, "But I'm worried that she won't be able to stand it after she knows the truth, and her current physical condition and emotions don't seem to be too intense." But if I know the truth but still hide it from her, what if she regrets it later? ”
"It's just a friend from the past, why do you care so much about her?" Gu Shaoze was indeed curious, and rushed out.
However, when he touched the hidden pain that was about to overflow in Ji Xincheng's eyes, he put back the casual tone, in order to show that he didn't disrespect her friends, Gu Shaoze thought for a while and said, "No one can make decisions for others, you might as well call her and ask." Whether to accept it or not, how to accept it, let her choose for herself. ”
When Ji Xincheng heard this, his eyes lit up as if he had a backbone, "Yes, I also think it should be like this!" ”
She took out her mobile phone, and Gu Shaoze said unexpectedly, "It's all over the place, let's call again tomorrow?" ”
"In that case, I probably won't be able to sleep at night." She was wronged.
Gu Shaoze was helpless, and sighed, "Okay, you fight." ”
Ji Xincheng dialed Shang Xuan's number, and it rang several times before he was picked up, but it was a male voice, "Hey? I couldn't help but be shocked, thinking it was Si Qian, and I was about to apologize, but I heard the other party say, "Xincheng, is it you?" I'm Song Qi, and Ah Xuan is taking a bath. ”
The continuous rush made Ji Xincheng almost dumbfounded.
It's already past the early hours of the morning, Shang Xuan is taking a shower at this time, and the mobile phone is in Song Qi's hand?!
