Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
About Zheng Haodong’s status, Xia Ning and Zheng Ziming did not answer.
The reporters started to ask about Xia Ning’s British nationality.
“Xia Ning, do you really have a British nationality?”
Xia Ning smiled and answered, “Actually, there might be some misunderstanding here.”
“What kind of misunderstanding? You were not an international student at Cambridge.”
Xia Ning answered, “If I could change my Chinese nationality to British, why can’t I just change back to Chinese? Also, what kind of nationality I have does not seem to violate any laws in China. I don’t know why you are so interested in this. As for my education, I didn’t use it to cheat on others. I don’t know why someone would magnify this. For those who are defaming me, I decide to take legal action no matter how much the cost is because it has severely affected my personal life.”
“There’s something we are very curious about. Your last name should be Xia. Right, Xia Ning? But your English name is Asteria Su. Is that your last name?”
Xia Ning darted a look at the reporter and suddenly smiled. “This really goes back to some history. My father’s last name was Su and the last name in my English name is after his. But my grandmother on my mother’s side had Xia as her last name. In order to remember her, my mother gave me the name Xia Ning. So my name is a bit special with four characters. The first and the third characters are last names, and the second and fourth characters are first names.”
When these words were out, people started to talk. From the faces of everyone, obviously, no one was expecting this.
But one thing was for sure. Xia Ning’s background was not simple.
“Miss Xia, someone was saying that you look like Movie Queen Shen. Are you really just idol and fan? Someone was saying she is your mother.”
Xia Ning curled her lips. “We are indeed idol and fan. It is too much to say we are mother and daughter since my mother passed away a long time ago. But, if you have to ask, there is a bit more. Because if we consider ties of blood, I have to call Movie Queen Shen aunt. But too bad she probably doesn’t know me.”
“Are you distantly related?” some reporter followed immediately.
Xia Ning did not talk and Zheng Ziming stood up and said, “The Q&A session is done for today. I hope you all will pass along Xia Ning’s voice and avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.” As he spoke, he pulled Xia Ning up and they left with the help of security.
In the elevator, Xia Ning did not speak. She was holding her phone and looking at something.
But Zheng Ziming took a slight breath. “Finally, we are taking down Zheng Haodong. So annoyed to see him.”
“The information we collected will be published tonight. I can’t imagine Zheng Haodong’s face when he sees this. Let’s see if he still has the face to be involved with you!”
Seeing that Xia Ning was ignoring him, Zheng Ziming looked over and found she was staring at the calendar on her phone. “What’s the matter?” he could not help but ask.
Xia Ning held the phone tight and said quietly, “I want to make a trip back to England.”
Zheng Ziming was surprised. Seeing Xia Ning’s face, he suddenly understood something and said in a low voice, “Asteria, don’t be too sad.”
Xia Ning took a glance at him and said with a smile, “I know. It’s all in the past.”
“I understand. You should go. I will take care of the rest,” Zheng Ziming said with a straight face.
Xia Ning smiled. “It’s been so many years and you are still the one who understands me the most.”
Zheng Ziming took a look at Xia Ning’s pale face and felt very emotional. He wanted to say if he did not understand her, who else would?!
He regretted every second that he did not stop her from falling for Qiao Yu.
Xia Ning’s words at the media conference were published very soon.
In the Song house, Shen Weiran was arranging flowers when she suddenly heard Xia Ning talking about their relationship. Her hand touched the thorns on the roses accidentally and blood came out.
