Chapter 493: Someone Has Come
It had been a while since she had broken up with Yu Linna. Logically speaking, no matter who it was, they should have let go by now, but the fact was not like that. In the beginning, when they had just broken up, it might have been nothing. After that period of time, she would discover that she seemed to have been a little too wrong. After so long, Ye Zhiyun had also slowly felt that she was getting more and more lonely. Although her career had started to get on the right track, and she was no longer short of money, she felt that something was always missing.
Perhaps her extremely strong self-esteem had seriously hurt others.
To this day, she still had no face to face Yu Linna. Although she had not deleted her contact information, although they were no longer in contact, she also knew that she had hurt her. After all, the one who had proposed the breakup was Ye Zhiyun herself.
“Yajun, this script of yours is really a little different from what you’ve written before. Why aren’t you writing a romance theme anymore?”
“Well, I’m also changing my own way of thinking. It’s not good to always write this. Boss, the TV series is almost finished filming, right? When will it be broadcast?”
“It should be in September.”
Speaking of the TV series script Love Has No Distance that Wen Yajun had written, Ye Zhiyun was still quite fond of it. This story was also written quite outstandingly. It was just that she didn’t know why Wen Yajun was no longer writing similar themes. The work that had made Ye Zhiyun famous, I Just Want to Be With You, was also written by Wen Yajun.
Now that Ye Zhiyun had started to become popular, there were naturally also fans who wrote her letters, and even sent her gifts, but there was no longer the fan who had sent her flowers at the very beginning who had moved her.
Recently, Yu Linna’s return as a screenwriter for the fourth season of The Smile of the Rose had also returned to the screen and was being broadcast online. Because of Yu Linna’s return, the reputation of this drama had started to warm up, and the story development had also become reasonable. At least there were no more of those cliché plots from before. At present, the reputation of the fourth season of The Smile of the Rose was second only to the first season, which could also be considered a good start. Everyone also liked Shion-sensei’s style even more.
Although many people online were cursing her, flaming her, and saying that the things she wrote were all the same, and that she would only ever write small-scale male-female love stories, in any case, the stories she wrote the scripts for were just liked by people. No matter how much they flamed her, she was still a supreme god.
Among these five supreme god authors, only Yu Linna had achieved the dual identity of a writer and a screenwriter.
Ye Zhiyun had also paid attention to these news. Although she could have not paid attention, in the end, she couldn’t let go.
Yu Linna herself was also working hard on writing her own script. After the filming of Beast Game had ended, it was now also in post-production. She had also finished writing I’ve Loved You for Ten Years. Now all that was left was an esports-themed movie script. As for the recording of the variety show, that was a matter for later.
Her popularity always occupied a position on Weibo. In this one year, the influence of the popular celebrities had been declining, especially when the popular celebrities had repeatedly responded to the audience’s expectations with bad works. Many people had lost their patience. The popular celebrities had finally paid the price for their perfunctory attitude. The current rule of the entertainment industry was that those with strength could go up, and those without strength had to stand aside. Such a development had made the entertainment industry enter a virtuous cycle.
Yu Linna was also working hard to make herself better. She earned a lot of money, and her popularity in the country was also sufficient. It was just that her influence abroad was relatively small. Besides Japan and some of the surrounding Southeast Asian countries, other countries did not have much familiarity with her. The trips to South Korea, France, and England had all made her understand that she was still very far from being a real great god.
“Actually, I think that if you really want to become famous in one go, and the kind that is worldwide, it’s not very feasible for you to be flying all over the world like that. You might as well come up with a work that will make the whole world like it. Otherwise, if you’re just flying around promoting, I feel like no one will know.”
Zhao Yuyan had made a comment on Yu Linna’s experience during these days. Don’t look at Zhao Yuyan with her legs crossed, munching on potato chips, her hair uncombed, extremely unladylike, but what she said also had a point.
This year, Zhao Yuyan was also about to graduate from university. According to her own thoughts, she did not plan to go to graduate school, or to continue her studies. She just wanted to be a writer, and then to slowly develop in this circle. After that, she was going to live with Luo Nan and temporarily settle down in this city. It wasn’t just her. Many of the people Yu Linna knew had also graduated from university. Tang Yumeng had also officially left the university and had entered society this year. In the future, she also had to put in all her effort to develop in the entertainment industry. Although her family didn’t really approve of her being in the entertainment industry, since she had made achievements, there was nothing to be done about it. She could only let her be.
One day, Yu Linna would also have to face the day of graduation. Time is always very fast.
“Sister Yuyan, you mean to say you want me to go to Hollywood?”
“Mmm, it’s not wrong to say so. That place is the dream land of filmmakers all over the world, after all. If you can make a name for yourself there, it seems to be also possible. To become famous overnight, the world will know. But even if you don’t go to that place, you also have other places to go. Anyway, as long as you make a name for yourself in the world, someone will know you. Think about it. If an esports player doesn’t rely on a world championship, where would anyone know his name?”
“Let’s not talk about my matter first. Do you have any development with Canwu-sensei?”
“Ahem, ahem, you’re touching a sore spot. I haven’t reached that point yet!”
Although it had been a long time since Luo Nan had confessed to Zhao Yuyan, Zhao Yuyan had not replied to her. Although Luo Nan herself had said that she could wait for her as long as it took, as long as she didn’t fall in love with someone else during this period, but Zhao Yuyan still had not made up her mind to date her, because she felt that if they were really together, they might be beaten to death by their families.
Yu Linna was also thinking about the future. In the future, she would surely have to continue to move forward. Her current goal was to be able to leave the country, to let other people in the world know her.
Why did she want to achieve this level? It could only be said that it was a dream she had decided on a long time ago. When she had followed Nangong Ying into the entertainment industry, she had had this dream. In the beginning, it was to find her own family. Later, she had persisted in this dream purely for herself.
Now she was famous and had money, but she had not found her family in this world. She was also thinking that she probably couldn’t find them, and could give up.
But there would always be accidents.
Because of this life, Yu Linna’s editor, Qian Jiaxuan, had called her.
“Shion-sensei, are you there?”
“What’s wrong? I’ve already handed in this month’s manuscript.”
“That’s not it. It’s that a couple has come to the editorial department, saying they are Shion-sensei’s family. They’ve come to find you.”
“Are you kidding me? Everyone in the editorial department knows I’m an orphan. Who would just come and say such things for no reason?”
“But the other party said they have evidence. They said they gave birth to you twenty years ago, and the woman is even a British person. The man calls himself Yu Hong, and the woman calls herself Vanessa. They also have ID cards.”
For this kind of thing, Yu Linna definitely didn’t believe it at first. No one would believe it.
But Yu Linna was an orphan.
She had had no parents since she was little, nor did she have a family. When she encountered this kind of thing, she still hesitated. There was a saying, “It is better to believe it is possible than to believe it is impossible.” She herself of course knew that it might not be reliable, but she still wanted to go and see. After all, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing in so many years.
In the final analysis, she still wanted a family. When someone claimed to be her parents, she was indeed hesitating.
Many people online knew that her early life was not easy, and it was not as if no one had ever pretended to be her family. But that kind of thing was mostly so fake that you could tell it was fake at a glance. Yu Linna felt that this time should be no exception.
She went to the editorial department for a trip. In the editorial department, there was indeed a man and a woman, who claimed to be a couple. The man was a Chinese person, and the woman was a blonde young woman with a British appearance. When they saw Yu Linna, their eyes moved a little. They suppressed their nervousness and made a self-introduction. The man called himself Yu Hong, an ordinary foreign language translator, and also a part-time reporter. The woman called herself Vanessa, a British person, and she also had a British residence permit in her hand. Her job was an ordinary civil servant.
At first, Yu Linna did not believe them. After all, they were just saying it. But no one knew if it was true.
“Child, we gave birth to you twenty years ago. At that time, we named you Yu Linna. It’s just that we didn’t look after you well, which led to your disappearance. We’ve been looking for you all these years. We’ve also seen you in the news, but we weren’t sure. It wasn’t until your father recently read about your experience, and also the places you had lived in in Guangnan in your early years, and had also gone to the orphanage you had once lived in, and had gotten enough evidence that we dared to confirm. If you don’t believe it, we can do a paternity test. Then we’ll know if it’s true.”
That’s what Vanessa had said, but to be honest, Yu Linna did not believe it at the first moment.
But she was also holding onto an expectation.
What if, what if this is true?
“Then, how did you lose me? You have to let me know.”
“I’m sorry, child. We didn’t look after you well. We lost you when you were five. Oh my god, if I had known that you wanted to buy snacks that day, I would definitely have looked after you well and would never have let you leave my sight. Who would have thought that you would disappear in a single moment of inattention?”
What the other party was saying did not sound like it was made up. Yu Linna had indeed been abducted and sold. The people who had pretended to be her parents before had had all sorts of excuses, but none of them had mentioned this point.
But this time, it seemed to be a little different. Although that was the case, Yu Linna still did not plan to believe the other party easily.
Qian Jiaxuan was also sitting upright. This was a matter of Shion-sensei’s life story. She did not dare to be careless either. The words the other party was saying still sounded a little far-fetched to her, but she couldn’t say where the problem was.
This couple said they wanted to do a paternity test with Yu Linna. After thinking it over and over again, Yu Linna still decided to go. But this couple had not taken her to the First Hospital in the city center, but to a second-class hospital. At that time, Yu Linna hadn’t paid much attention to it. She and the other party had done a DNA paternity test. She didn’t know if doing so was correct. When those people who had pretended to be her family had come over before, she had also done the same thing. Anything, in front of data, it was impossible to be fake, right?
The result came out.
Yu Linna held the result sheet and looked at it for half a day, a look of shock on her face, her body trembling.
Qian Jiaxuan held her up.
“Shion-sensei, how is it?”
Yu Linna didn’t say anything, just handed her the result sheet. Qian Jiaxuan took a look.
A line with the name “Confirmed to have a blood relationship” was stamped on it. The red characters were so dazzling. It was no wonder that Yu Linna was trembling. This was probably the most difficult time for her to be calm in so many years.
