The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 701 - 699: Doesn’t Look Like Her Dad!
"Your dad took some medicine and is lying in the room!" Aunt He’s eyes were still red, "Tongtong, are all these people coming because of you? Will they keep coming? Many neighbors have come to talk to us."
Ji Niandong swallowed a breath, realizing that the negative aspects of fame had already affected her family. "Aunt He, you should wake Dad up. Beichen has found a new place, I’ll take you there. Once the crowd disperses, you can come back to pack up. The properties at the Ancient Garden are inadequate. This time it’s just reporters and fans causing trouble, but if we encounter malicious fans, it could be like it was for Lingling, leaving us with nowhere to go."
"This..." She felt a bit troubled, "We’ve lived here for over a decade, suddenly having to move out..."
She was both reluctant and awkward, and Ji Niandong understood her feelings. "Aunt He, I won’t feel at ease with you all staying here."
"Exactly! Mrs. Ji, besides, Tongtong has gained some fame now. If you keep living here, some people will say Tongtong earned money but still lets you stay in this shabby neighborhood." Ada chimed in, "Although what I say may sound blunt, it’s the truth. The most important thing is it’s indeed worrisome. Besides, as you just mentioned, it also affects others’ lives!"
Aunt He remained silent for a moment, and Ji Guoqiang, already dressed, came out. "Pack up a few things and leave with Tongtong for now. Don’t make it hard for her."
His face and lips were pale, yet his words were considerate of her. Ji Niandong felt increasingly guilty, realizing she had never brought anything good to her father. In the past, there was resentment; then came indifference. Only now did she realize how much her father cared about her, doing everything with her best interest at heart.
Yet she had always been a burden to him!
If it hadn’t been for Lu Beichen when he was discharged, she might never have figured out how to raise the money to save him!
She didn’t know what to say, and upon seeing her, Ji Guoqiang also said nothing more.
After a quick packing, the family was escorted out, with reporters rushing forward to snap photos incessantly. Ada, standing by, said, "Hold your dad steady! This is also a time to build your image."
Although she was dissatisfied with having to build an image, she did feel the need to support Ji Guoqiang, as he was indeed in poor health. However, they were rarely this intimate, and both father and daughter felt a subtle awkwardness when she held his arm.
The reporters continued their relentless pursuit, and the fans were noisy and aggressive. After quite an effort, they managed to squeeze into the car and leave, surrounded by the commotion.
The TV was still broadcasting: "Ji Niandong took her manager to personally escort her dad and stepmother from New City Ancient Garden. It’s apparent their expressions were not good. Though we shouldn’t disturb the families of celebrities, this shows Ji Niandong is indeed very popular now..."
The TV programs due to broadcasting regulations generally maintain a positive tone, but online discussions had already ignited.
"Is that really Ji Niandong’s dad? He doesn’t look like it at all. Aren’t daughters supposed to resemble their fathers? Was she her mom’s and the neighbor Old Wang’s child?"
"Can you be more decent, poster upstairs? Who says daughters must look like their dad? But I’m curious about Ji Niandong’s mom!"
"Their family’s expressions are nasty. Didn’t fans go there because they like her and want to see her? When she’s popular, she should be grateful to fans; at times like this, she shows a filthy face!"
"I feel she and her dad must not be close. Picking him up directly suggests they don’t live together! Maybe she’s living in some sponsor’s mansion while her dad and stepmother live in such a rundown place, only showing affection when exposed!"
...
The internet was in chaos, and Lu Beichen directly made a phone call, asking, "Have you found out?"
