Chapter 602: Are You Nervous?
According to the information provided by Ye Zhiyun, the police had also launched an investigation. They had indeed seen Eric on the camera, but where he had gone was unknown. The only thing that could be confirmed was that in the past few days, he had been staying in China. Coincidentally, this place had just had the incident of Yu Linna’s attempted assassination. It was hard not to connect this matter. And so the police had also put in a lot of effort in this area, and had even sent a lot of manpower for this.
Especially since it involved Yu Linna, the police were extremely concerned, and had even told her to go out less recently. Besides her workplace, she should not go anywhere. When she went to work, she must be escorted. After all, Yu Linna’s life was being targeted. This was a very terrifying thing, especially when you didn’t even know where your opponent was, and what their purpose was.
Everyone in the crew was also very nervous about Yu Linna. They didn’t even dare to ask her to go and buy things, and just had her stay put. But the crew’s schedule still had to be rushed. Seeing that the production date was about to be up, and that they were about to hand in the finished product, everyone had no choice but to put in a little more effort. Ye Zhiyun still maintained a high-intensity work state of twelve hours a day, not at all looking tired. It could be seen that she really valued her own work.
Not long after Ye Zhiyun had reported to the police, Catherine had come here, saying that she was here to visit the set. Her appearance had of course caused a huge uproar in the crew. In any case, Catherine was a super star of the previous era. It could be said that many people had grown up watching her movies. This was not an exaggeration. Although she had retired from filming now, it did not prevent everyone from knowing her.
When she had come to visit the set, everyone had been taken aback. Everyone had originally thought it was an April Fool’s joke, but she had indeed appeared.
“I’m here. How is the filming? Are you tired? I’ve brought you some food. They are all some snacks. You can share them with everyone.”
As soon as Catherine had arrived at the crew, she had found Yu Linna, had patted her head, and then had taken out the gift she had brought. It had made Yu Linna a little embarrassed.
“Mom, when did you come? You didn’t even tell me. A phone call would have been fine.”
“Hehe, I came because I wanted to see you, although work is very tiring. But you still have to go to school obediently. Remember to go back to school before the next job starts.”
“Alright, alright. I’ll take this.”
The other people in the crew were dumbfounded, watching this scene. The thunderous scene was really magnificent. Before this, everyone had not known that Yu Linna and Catherine had this kind of relationship. It was really a huge surprise.
But a careful look showed that the two of them did indeed have some similarities in their looks. This was not a lie. It was just that everyone was more puzzled that they remembered Yu Linna was an orphan.
“Shion-sensei, what is the relationship between the two of you?”
Although Song Xiaoxi had roughly guessed, she was still not sure. She had decided to ask clearly.
“Um, she is my mom. She came to see me.”
“My daughter has been taken care of by you.”
!!!
It was a matter of course that everyone would be surprised. After all, no one had ever heard of this matter, and the information on the Wikipedia article clearly stated that Yu Linna was an orphan. This couldn’t be a lie, right?
“But, isn’t this…”
“I know what you want to ask. In short, a lot of things have happened, but we are biological. As for the reason, I will come out and explain in the future. By the way, also don’t publicize this matter everywhere. I don’t want to face those media.”
Yu Linna’s real identity was actually the biological daughter of the Hollywood queen, Catherine. This had really shocked a lot of people. No wonder she had been captured on camera with Catherine before. It also explained why she was so close to Yu Jiayang. It could only be said that all of this was the choice of the Steins;Gate.
Catherine, as a former Hollywood star, herself had super strong strength, and also had an impressive popularity. Although it was known that she had a daughter, it was not known that she also had a daughter named Yu Linna. If this news were to be exposed, it would probably be very shocking.
That’s right. Everyone had just remembered that Catherine had been on the news before, saying that the second daughter of Catherine, who had always been reported to have passed away, had been found to be still alive, and that they had already recognized each other. At that time, it had caused a huge wave, and countless onlookers were hotly discussing this matter. But no one would have connected Yu Linna to this, right? Now that they thought about it, it seemed that everything made sense.
Catherine greeted everyone with a grin, and then she saw the nervous Ye Zhiyun, with cold sweat constantly breaking out. She had still seen this child before, and had also heard Fang Jiangning mention her. Catherine’s impression of her was also quite good.
“Shall we two go over there and sit and chat?”
“Eh???”
“Don’t be so nervous. I won’t eat you.”
“No, um… I… alright.”
Ye Zhiyun was really quite nervous, okay! The other party was Yu Linna’s biological mom. How could she not be nervous? At this time, the more she wanted to have a good performance, the more nervous she got. She was really too useless. She was clearly very tough at work, and also very calm when facing the media, but she was so nervous on such an occasion.
Ye Zhiyun followed Catherine to a place to sit down. Catherine gave her a gift, saying it was a small token of her appreciation. Ye Zhiyun was flattered and repeatedly said thank you. From a distance, Yu Linna was watching, and did not go to disturb them. She just turned her head and went to look at the script.
Catherine looked at Ye Zhiyun’s hand holding the water, and it was trembling. She thought to herself, I shouldn’t be that scary. Why is she so scared of me?
“You seem very nervous, Zhiyun.”
“Ahem!! …Yes, I’ve made a fool of myself, madam.”
“Just call me ‘Auntie.’ It sounds very distant if you call me that. Anyway, you’ve also helped my daughter a lot. I want to thank you properly.”
“As for helping, not at all. I don’t think I’ve helped with anything. Auntie, you’re being too polite.”
“You don’t have to hide it from me. I know everything. When Nana was at a dead end, it was you who helped her, right? Although I have no right to say anything, as a mother, I still want to say thank you to you. I really thank you very much for saving her at that time. This kindness is something I will never forget in my life.”
Ye Zhiyun was surprised at first, but then she was wondering how Catherine would know these things. One had to know that the matter between Yu Linna and Chenghe, basically not many people knew the inside story. Even if they did, so what? They couldn’t beat Chenghe, so they could only silently hold it in. She didn’t know where Catherine had gotten her information from.
But thinking about it carefully, Catherine’s background, and also Yu Linna’s father, it seemed that nothing was impossible. Many things also made sense. It was just that she had not expected her to have investigated so quickly.
“At that time, when I helped Nana, I actually didn’t think that much. I just felt that I should do that. If I hadn’t, I would surely have regretted it. I have never regretted it to this day. I feel that the most correct thing I have ever done in my life was that one time.”
“Zhiyun, I really thank you. You are a good child. Actually, I have always been very guilty. If I had known at that time that she had encountered such a thing, I would absolutely not have let her suffer such a grievance. But the matter has already passed, and I can’t change anything. But I will get justice.”
“…Auntie, although I know you are doing this for Nana’s good, but… the opponent is not simple. Do you really have to do this?”
“Yes.”
Catherine did not hesitate and answered so.
Ye Zhiyun had also guessed it. In fact, it would have been strange if the other party had said to forget it. If it had been her, she would also not have said to forget it. It was just that she did not have enough ability, and was not enough to overthrow Chenghe, so she could only endure it. But Catherine was different. If it was her, it might really be possible.
Chenghe would probably regret it, to have provoked the one they should not have provoked the most. But it was also their own doing. Ye Zhiyun was very much looking forward to the ridiculous face of Chenghe like a clown.
“By the way, Zhiyun, you and Nana, my daughter… did something happen before?”
“Pfft!”
Ye Zhiyun had spat out the water she was halfway through drinking. Her whole person was not well.
Now it’s over. How was she going to answer? Even if you asked her to answer, she couldn’t, nor did she dare to!
She couldn’t just say, “I used to date your daughter, and then because I was a scumbag, we broke up,” right? Then she would be chopped to death!
Ye Zhiyun was thinking about how to answer when Catherine seemed to have guessed something and quickly stopped this topic.
“No need. I probably know. You don’t have to say.”
“No, Auntie, I was… I’s sorry. It was my fault.”
“No, no, no. I don’t mean to blame you. Young people will always have all sorts of troubles. I don’t plan to interfere in the affairs of the two of you. After all, I don’t have any standing to speak. But don’t make my daughter sad. That’s my only condition.”
“…Thank you.”
Ye Zhiyun did not know what to say, besides these two words.
To Yu Linna, to like is to like, but in fact, she also had no confidence that she could make the other party have a change of heart. If it were that easy, it wouldn’t have become like this.
During a break, Yu Linna had found Ye Zhiyun, had handed her the revised script, and had given her a few instructions. Ye Zhiyun had taken the script, and then she had looked at the serious Yu Linna. For some reason, she had leaned down and had gently left a kiss under her lips.
Yu Linna was stunned. When she had come back to her senses, her face was flushed, and her small hands were clenched into pink fists, lightly hammering Ye Zhiyun.
“I say you, what time is it now, and you’re still doing this kind of thing? Aren’t you ashamed!”
“It hurts. Be gentle…”
“I can’t stand you. We are not a couple anymore. It’s best to do less of this kind of thing. Do you understand?”
“Oh…”
Ye Zhiyun touched her own lips, but in her heart, she was saying, You didn’t refuse, did you?
After Yu Linna had left, she had patted her own cheeks, feeling that it was still a little hot. The weather was also really getting hotter and hotter. To face Ye Zhiyun was really a very difficult thing. She had clearly said it many times, and had even said very excessive things, but Ye Zhiyun had never thought of giving up, and had stood up again and again in the place where she had fallen. Sometimes she really admired her perseverance. As expected of the person she, Yu Linna, had once liked.
“Xiaoxi, your lines have been revised. Take a look.”
“Alright. Shion-sensei, you’re smiling quite happily. Did something good happen?”
“Huh? Did I smile?”
“You were smiling so happily. You look like a little girl in love, hahaha.”
“Go, go, go! Stop making fun of me.”
This summer, more than half of it had also slowly passed.
