Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With this thought in mind, Tang Yue advised Grandfather Tang, “Grandpa, since Su Bei has already said so, then let’s be fair. Let her try it out. This way, she won’t feel that our family members are too controlling.
“However, Su Bei, you have to know that if it doesn’t succeed, you can’t keep pestering Grandpa, lest his body can’t take it.”
Old Master Tang was indeed afraid of losing this granddaughter that he had lost for so many years. Besides, there was no harm in trying. Hence, he agreed with Tang Yue. “In that case, let Guo Feng prepare for the reporters’ visit.”
Tang Yue nodded. “Okay, I’ll do it now. Su Bei, Grandpa isn’t targeting you, so don’t take this matter to heart. Stay for dinner tonight.”
She had thought it through very well. After hurting others, she would act as if nothing had happened. But what about the harm she had caused Su Bei?
Su Bei calmly looked at them and said, “Sorry, I already have plans tonight.”
With that, she turned around and left.
Downstairs, Lin Shulian also enthusiastically asked Su Bei to stay for dinner. However, Su Bei did not stay.
The expression on Old Master Tang’s face was filled with regret. He had carefully tried to protect his relationship with Su Bei, but in the end, he still hurt her and created a rift between the two of them.
Wouldn’t everything be better if he had discussed it with her beforehand?

Tang Yue, on the other hand, looked at the scene before her with satisfaction and a hint of pride.
…
When Su Bei came out of the Tang family’s home, Director Guo Feng’s call followed soon after.
“Su Bei, everything’s ready. Come over tomorrow.” His voice sounded excited. No matter what, it was a good thing to be able to have a shot to keep Su Bei in the cast.
It was just that he was not influential enough before.
“Okay.” Su Bei’s voice was low.
Director Guo Feng wanted to apologize and comfort her. However, he could only hang up.
Su Bei was in low spirits. This was what families did, especially the elders of wealthy families. To them, a child’s will was dispensable. Some would resist for a while before ultimately giving in because giving up their dreams and ideals seemed to allow them to live well.
But she would never agree with this.
Just as she was about to get a cab to leave, Lu Heting’s car slowly stopped beside her.
“Su Bei.” His voice was steady and strong. Su Bei froze for a moment before getting into the car.
Lu Heting took off his jacket and placed it over her shoulders. He explained in a low voice, “Yue Ze said that you left the set, so I came to the Tang family’s house to see if you were here.”
There was no need for anyone to say anything else. From what Yue Ze had said, he could easily deduce the entire situation.
Hence, he quickly determined where she was.
Only now did Su Bei feel a little cold. After leaving the set, she was so busy talking to Old Master Tang that she didn’t even have time to put on her coat.
Seeing that she was a little unhappy, Lu Heting’s eyes were filled with heartache. This woman was usually optimistic and cheerful, which made her desolate appearance now seem even more pitiful.
Lu Heting stroked her hair and said, “Can I take you for a ride?”
“No, I want to hug you. I want to be hugged by you too,” Su Bei said lazily.
“I’ll find a place to park.” Lu Heting stopped the car, lowered the car seat, and carried her over.
Su Bei contentedly cleared her thoughts.. After a long while, she said lazily, “I feel much better now.”
