Chapter 665: Stop Humiliating Yourself
At this time, Meng Changxin came back from outside with documents.
"Hello, Grandma Meng." Xiao Ke greeted her politely.
"It's been a long time since I saw Grandma Meng. I miss you so much."
Xiao Ai blinked her big eyes and discharged electricity while talking.
A smile appeared on Meng Changxin's face, "Little girl, you are the only one with a sweet mouth."
She casually threw the script in her hand to Bai Zhi, "Your new script."
Then he threw Bai Zhi aside and hugged Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai again and again.
Bai Zhi glanced at the time and said, "Xiao Ke Xiao Ai, it's time for you to go to school."
Xiao Ai frowned, "Mommy, for the sake of us getting up early to see you, how about you have a day off today?"
Xiao Ke didn't speak, just looked at Bai Zhi silently.
That look seems to be saying, we finally came to stay with you, are you willing to let us leave?
Bai Zhi said helplessly, "It's just this once, it won't happen next time."
"Great!"
Xiao Ai made a victory gesture, and cheered in the room as if she had been granted amnesty.
Bai Zhi stopped looking at them and started reading the script.
After turning to the character settings, I couldn't help but frown, "Sister Xin, my character settings seem to have changed."
"Oh, really? As long as the role remains the same."
Meng Changxin responded lazily. Anyway, she was not optimistic about the role of Bai Zhi, the villain female supporting role.
Bai Zhi found that Meng Changxin seemed to be unaware.
She continued to ponder the script, and there were only a few more lines for the female supporting character, but the roles before and after had different meanings.
The previous female counterpart was simply vicious.
Nowadays, the vicious and cruel female costar has a miserable life experience. All her cruelty is involuntary, which is invisible and cast a layer of tragedy. This character is moving.
Having been in the circle for so long, Bai Zhi knows that this kind of change will cause chain changes in the plot later.
Screenwriters don’t take the initiative to do such a thankless job.
Her fingertips tapped the script page lightly, and she had a vague guess in her heart.
She wanted to ask Meng Changxin, but seeing the innocent smiling faces of Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai, she said nothing in the end.
On TV, the entertainment channel suddenly played a segment of entertainment news.
At first, Bai Zhi didn't care.
But when she heard the female anchor with an exaggerated tone mention her and Mu Jianhua's names, she immediately raised her head.
"Please follow our reporters to the front line to find out what's going on! Mu Jianhua held a press conference to announce his wedding date to Bai Zhi?"
The scene switched, Mu Jianhua was sitting on a chair, and the background behind him was monotonous dark blue.
He looked directly at the camera with slightly tired eyes, and said clearly word by word: "I'm sorry to bother all my friends from the media. Today I am here to announce that I have officially terminated my engagement with Miss Bai Zhi. The two of us have discussed this matter in advance. Please Don't make any assumptions about who dumped whom. I am not worthy of Bai Zhi. She is a good girl and I hope she can be happy."
After speaking, Mu Jianhua bowed to reporters and prepared to leave.
The reporters below chased him out of the venue, and they kept asking questions.
Bai Zhi stared at the screen, her eyes following Mu Jianhua's leaving figure.
She thought that the matter between herself and Mu Jianhua would fade away over time.
But I didn't expect that he would hold a formal press conference and lower his profile so low in front of reporters.
Is this what that high-spirited man did?
Bai Zhi suddenly realized that she might not be able to repay what she owed Mu Jianhua in her lifetime.
Meng Changxin sent Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai aside to play.
Seeing Bai Zhi's silent look, she thought Bai Zhi was feeling sad, and immediately said: "Mu Jianhua actually doesn't want to hold this press conference. I heard that his adoptive mother forced him to commit suicide if he didn't break up publicly. Mu Jianhua is a filial son. He just had to do it."
Bai Zhi couldn't help but have a headache when she thought of Mo Fangru.
If that woman could cut her wrists cruelly, she would definitely be able to force Mu Jianhua. Mu Jianhua was so pitiful.
But when he got to this point, Li Haiyan was responsible, and she couldn't escape his involvement.
Bai Zhi picked up the phone and chose to send a text message to Mu Jianhua one second before making a call.
As soon as Mu Jianhua returned to the hospital, he received a text message from Bai Zhi.
"Brother Mu, thank you for defending me in front of the media. I'm sorry again for causing so much pain in your life."
He stared at the text on the screen.
Bai Zhi's cold voice and apologetic brows immediately appeared in front of her eyes.
The corners of his mouth moved, and his expression was forlorn.
"What I want is not your apology." Mu Jianhua murmured to himself.
His fingers moved on the screen, but nothing came out.
When he returned to the ward, Mo Fangru was leaning on the bedside. The TV was still on the entertainment channel, looping through the words he just said at the press conference.
"Mom, I'm back."
Mo Fangru looked at Mu Jianhua and snorted coldly, "Why are you still here with me? I have nothing to do with you. Mu Chengxun and Li Haiyan are your biological parents. You go find them."
"Mom, I did as you asked. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
Mo Fangru's upper and lower lips almost collapsed into a line, "You are not my son. My son will not degrade himself to that for a woman."
"Mom, no matter what, I have completely cut off my relationship with Bai Zhi as you requested. As for my biological mother, I never planned to recognize her. The grace of giving birth is heavy, but the grace of raising is even heavier. Besides, Li Haiyan might have had some intentions when she gave birth to me. I was just a pawn she used, but you are different. For so many years, even if you knew that I was not your biological child, you took care of me wholeheartedly. In my heart, you are my mother, and no one can replace your position in my heart. I will be filial to you in the future."
Mo Fangru's face was stern and she couldn't help but feel a little moved. Her voice became more and more difficult, "I... don't need you to be filial to me."
Although the voice was cold and hard, Mo Fangru didn't know how many turns she had made in her heart.
Li Haiyan took away her husband, and her son now recognized only her.
It's hard to tell who is more at a disadvantage between them.
Seeing Mu Jianhua looking at her, especially the cherishment and admiration in his eyes, Mo Fangru finally couldn't hold it anymore, "Jianhua, the matter between you and Baizhi is over. Mom forgives you this time, and there will definitely be better girls in the future. You are not allowed to humiliate yourself again."
When Mo Fangru mentioned Baizhi, Mu Jianhua's expression fluctuated a little.
He lowered his head, hiding the bitterness in his heart, "Mom, let's not talk about this."
*
Evening.
"Daddy, where are we going?"
Xiao Ai looked at the scenery outside the car window, which was different from the usual way home.
Lu Juefeng raised his hand to rub Xiao Ai's head, feeling the softness of his palm and the hair, and couldn't help but smile gently, "Today we will go back to the Lu family mansion to see the great grandfather and others."
"Oh."
Xiao Ai nodded.
Soon, the car drove to the Lu family.
The driver quickly got out of the car to help Lu Juefeng open the door, and Xiao Ke supported the door with one hand and jumped out by himself.
Xiao Ai waited for Lu Juefeng to get out of the car, and opened her arms as a matter of course to ask for a hug.
"Master, you are finally back. Miss Xia has been waiting for you here all afternoon."
Butler Li came up quickly with a look of joy on his face.
Lu Juefeng's expression remained unchanged, his eyes fixed on the direction of the villa, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Li Guojun felt that Lu Juefeng was not very happy, so he retracted his gaze and quickly led Xiaoke up the stairs.
