The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 458 - 265

She couldn’t do it, and she knew it was hard to change, for her personality was already set in stone.

However, it seemed she wasn’t alone.

The person most like her in the family was Shen Jingxiu.

He didn’t talk much either, and didn’t seem as warm as the other members of the family.

When Wenyan was joking and playing around with the brothers Shen Jingchuan and Shen Jinghe, it seemed he could only watch from the side, just like she did.

But there was something slightly different about him.

Qin Yulong had fully accepted her own personality, and she didn’t mind not fitting in with the family’s merriment.

But there seemed to be a hint of envy in Shen Jingxiu’s eyes.

Although he hid it very well, Qin Yulong still noticed it.

In the end, the three of them didn’t decide then and there who would "earn" Wenyan’s "coaching fee".

Because Wenyan gave a non-committal answer.

"It all depends on your performance," she said.

Wenyan was actually joking. It was a trivial matter, and certainly not something to have her two brothers compete over.

Yet the brothers seemed to take it seriously and began to challenge each other: "Just you wait and see."

Su Yang: "Looks like it’s still a tug-of-war. I’ll handle the planning, and then I’ll post the plan in the group for everyone to vote. I declare the first family meeting a success, and now you guys can go back and rest."

Su Yang was incredibly happy. Before Wenyan and the others left, she started to discuss with Shen Yuan.

"Which country do you think has the best seascapes?"

After going up to the third floor, Wenyan invited Qin Yulong into her room.

"Yulong, I noticed you didn’t talk much just now. Are you not used to it?"

Qin Yulong raised her eyebrows and chuckled lightly: "I thought you understood me. It’s not that I’m not used to talking; I just don’t like to talk."

"That’s true, personality dictates behavior. Do you feel like this place is home? How does it compare to our previous family gatherings?"

Qin Yulong nodded: "I think it gets better each time. I’m starting to feel a sense of belonging to this family."

"Perfect! Mom would be over the moon if she heard you say that. Mom and Dad were visibly thrilled that the whole family could travel together this time."

"Yes, I saw that too. Anyway, I heard you met with your biological father today. How is Uncle Xu doing?"

"He’s doing well. I even helped him farm today. I forgot to tell you, the vegetables on the dinner table tonight were freshly picked from his field an hour before dinner. Did you try them? Weren’t they delicious?"

"Indeed, they were delicious. Did you talk about your movie script with him today?"

"No," Wenyan shook her head, "I’m still brainstorming. Since his identity must remain a secret, in case someone seeks revenge, I have to obscure the whole era and story setting. I always thought those stories in movies were quite simple, but now that it’s my turn, I realize that writing a script is difficult. Sigh."

Seeing Wenyan sigh, Qin Yulong raised her eyebrows and looked at her: "What’s the matter, giving up already with all the sighs?"

"Of course not! I haven’t even started yet; how could I give up? I’m not that stubborn," Wenyan said earnestly.

"If I try and fail many times, I might consider cutting my losses, but giving up before even starting is out of the question."

Qin Yulong nodded in agreement: "I feel the same way on that point. So I have a request for you."

"What’s the request?"

"Give yourself a timeline. Your job is acting, not screenwriting, and I can’t let you waste a lot of time on scriptwriting, do you understand?"

Wenyan immediately gestured ’OK’: "I understand completely."

"So don’t forget about the interview in two days. You should get the outline tomorrow, so prepare in advance. Even though it’s a recorded interview, not live, I still hope you’ll do well."

"Got it! You might even question my abilities, but you can’t question my attitude. As long as I’ve taken on a job, I will certainly take it seriously and not mess around!"ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
