Chapter 856 - Finale: Song Fengyan x Luo Qingqing (4)
"Very well. I'm giving you a chance to clear the issue yourself. I'll talk to your company to discuss how to deal with this problem. You better make sure you are prepared to face the consequences of your actions," Song Xinjie warned her.
If Lan Xiyan wasn't able to solve the problem on her own, the Song family wouldn't stand still and allow one of their family members to be criticized by the public.
Song Xinji spent time and had dinner with her brother along with the mother and child. Lan Yunru was obviously thrilled to see her today, while her mother didn't have the heart to chase Song Fengyan's sister away after all the trouble Song Xinji had for their sake.
However, before Song Xinji left her humble home, Lan Xiyan had a word with her while her daughter was preoccupied with Song Fengyan as they played Xbox in her living room.
"Miss Song, if you don't mind, could you please tell me who tried to sully my name and drag our Little Yunyun to this scandal?"
Lan Xiyan refused to believe that it was only a coincidence that she was photographed with her daughter just outside her school premises.
Song Xinji gave her an amused look, curious to see what Lan Xiyan would do after knowing the person behind the scandal. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮
"Why, if it isn't your good friend, Xing Yiyue. I'm sure she's vomiting blood now as we speak for failing to drag you along with her in the mud."
Just what Song Xinji told her the other day, Lan Xiyan received an invitation for a small talk show that was to be broadcasted live that weekend. It was really popular among the audience; hence it would be the best platform for her to clear up the issues surrounding her name for the past few days.
As for Xing Yiyue, she would deal with her later once she settled the problem. She had tolerated that woman for a long time because she didn't want to fight with her, but Xing Yiyue crossed the line this time. Song Xinjie had been kind enough to give her XIng Yiyue's whereabouts, and Lan Xiyan planned to deal with her personally.
The talk show started on time with the host greeting the audience before introducing Luo Qingqing as their guests.
"Miss Luo, people are curious…" The host hesitated a little to question Luo Qingqing. Who hadn't heard the other rumor that she had a strong person backing her up? The moment the scandal about her having a child had shocked the netizens, but everything was cleared from cyberspace before dawn broke.
"I know." Luo Qingqing smiled at the camera and gave the audience a side glance. "Isn't that why I came here? To clear things up? Please don't hesitate to ask me questions," she told the host. "I'll try my best to answer them honestly."
"Alright." The host sighed in relief and looked at her cue card. "Miss Lan, photos of you holding a girl circulated a few nights ago and there are rumors that the child is yours, is it true?"
Since Luo Qingqing gave her the permission to ask, the host decided not to beat around the bush anymore and threw the question everyone was curious about. Luo Qingqing was the current film empress of the industry, so for her to be rumored to have a child out of wedlock would leave a dent on her career.
"That's right, the child is my daughter. I have nothing to deny, as it is the truth." Luo Qingqing didn't falter and answered the question truthfully, much to everyone's shock.
They thought that in order to protect her flourishing career, Luo Qingqing would deny the allegations and the child being her daughter.
At the same time, Xing Yiyue was watching the talk show in her small apartment. She burst into a round of laughter after hearing Luo Qingqing's admission of having a child.
"Luo Qingqing, you idiot!" Just as Xing Yiyue lost her chance to destroy this woman as the scandal perished from cyberspace without a trace, Luo Qingqing dug a deeper grave for her to lie in.
Has Luo Qingqing lost her mind? Why did she admit having a child at the peak of her career? Wouldn't it be a career suicide on her part?
But someone like Xing Yiyue would never understand the love a mother had for her child. For Luo Qingqing, regardless if the people accepted her or not, she didn't care anymore. She joined the entertainment industry and had to come to love her acting career, but it didn't mean she forgot her priority.
After working for some time, she had saved enough money to start a new life outside the industry, so there was no regret for Luo Qingqing if she had to retire this early. She had reached the peak of her career as a film empress, and she couldn't ask for more.
The host was taken aback by Luo Qingqing's admittance. She tried to see if Luo Qingqing was sure, but she'd seen nothing but confidence on the actress's face.
"Miss Luo, may we know why you've kept this a secret. Were you afraid that you would lose your projects if your daughter had been out before?" she asked Luo Qingqing again.
This time, Luo Qingqing didn't answer immediately. To be honest, this was the reason why she kept it a secret from everyone. She knew how people view actresses like her and knew that they would use her daughter to slander her reputation.
However, it didn't matter now. If the scandal surfaced in the past, Luo Qingqing would surely get worried about her career, but not this time.
