Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When Song Jia heard Lu Zhen’s words, he pondered for a while and looked up at her. “Rest today. I’ll look for you tomorrow. We’ll discuss this matter then. Don’t worry, there will be a solution if there’s a problem. Moreover, you and Jiang Fei are biological father and daughter. This is a fact that no one can change.”
Lu Zhen nodded obediently. “Okay.”
Song Jia’s heart softened again, and his deep eyes became even gentler. He stood up and reminded her, “Don’t think too much. Sleep well. If you encounter any problems in the future, don’t think about drinking. You can tell me, understand?”
Lu Zhen looked up at Song Jia. The alcohol made her head hurt, but she was no longer in a bad mood. The man in front of her had a magical power. It was as if she could feel at ease just by looking at him.
Song Jia didn’t say anything else. He turned around and knocked on Xiaoxiao’s door. He instructed Xiaoxiao to take good care of Lu Zhen before leaving.
Xiaoxiao came to the living room to clean up the wine bottles. She didn’t expect Lu Zhen to drink. She couldn’t help but say, “Sister Zhenzhen, even if you’re happy that we got first place today, you can’t drink so much. Your alcohol tolerance isn’t good to begin with. Don’t force yourself in the future.”
After knocking on the door, Song Jia told Xiaoxiao that Lu Zhen had drunk alcohol because she was too happy today. This explanation was mainly to prevent Xiaoxiao from worrying. If Xiaoxiao knew the truth, Lu Zhen would still have to explain to Xiaoxiao.
Lu Zhen lowered her head and didn’t say anything. She had originally hidden Jiang Fei’s matter from everyone. Now that she had told Song Jia, Xiaoxiao still didn’t know.
She will think about it in the future. If she told Xiaoxiao now, she would only let Xiaoxiao worry about her.
After cleaning up, Xiaoxiao helped Lu Zhen wash up.
In the bathroom, Lu Zhen leaned against her small shoulder and let Xiaoxiao wipe her with a warm towel. Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Zhen’s snow-white skin and charming red lips. As a woman, she felt tempted. How could Song Jia not have any thoughts just now?
Xiaoxiao revealed an ambiguous smile and couldn’t help but ask, “Sister
Zhenzhen, is President Song about to get a promotion?”
What promotion? The sleepy Lu Zhen immediately woke up and hurriedly explained, “No, that was an accident.” Lu Zhen denied it, but she felt a little guilty. Even as a friend, her hug with Song Jia had crossed the line. Anyone who saw it would think too much.
She didn’t know how things had turned out like this. Why was she getting closer to Song Jia? Now that she had told Song Jia her secret, their relationship seemed to have become even closer.
Xiaoxiao naturally did not believe Lu Zhen’s explanation, but she did not continue asking. She only thought that Lu Zhen was shy and was too embarrassed to admit it.
After washing up, Xiaoxiao helped Lu Zhen to bed, closed the curtains, and turned off the lights.
Darkness enveloped her. Lu Zhen lay on the soft bed. After closing her eyes, the images that troubled and pained her no longer appeared in her mind, but Song Jia’s handsome side profile and deep eyes did.
In a daze, Lu Zhen felt as if she was still being hugged by Song Jia. The man’s chest was firm and broad, and he smelled of cold wooden perfume. It was light and pleasant. Her heart raced, and the temperature on her face slowly rose again. She covered her head with the blanket in shame and forced herself not to think too much. She quickly fell asleep.
On the other side, Song Jia returned to his residence, sat at his desk, and turned on his computer. After searching for information, Song Jia leaned back in his seat.
Jiang Fei…
It was not that Song Jia had not investigated Lu Zhen’s background before, but he did not expect Lu Zhen to be Jiang Fei’s daughter.
According to the information online, Jiang Fei indeed had a daughter who had gone missing many years ago. After his daughter went missing, Jiang Fei suffered a devastating psychological blow. He retired from filming for a few years and only took on a few movies on and off. However, it was obvious that Jiang Fei had no longer focused on his career these years.
Jiang Fei’s fans felt that it was a pity. Jiang Fei had won an award before the age of 30 and achieved the grand slam of the domestic awards. Later on, he even collaborated with an internationally renowned director and opened up the path for Chinese actors to enter the international scene. If not for his daughter’s disappearance, Jiang Fei would definitely still be active in the film industry. His achievements would definitely be higher.
However, no one blamed Jiang Fei. After all, losing one’s family was the most painful thing in one’s life. Jiang Fei’s wife had passed away in her early years and he only had one daughter. He must have valued his daughter more than his own life..
