Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Chapter 262

Huo Chengming was a workaholic. Once he started working, he would completely forget about everything else. Zhong Yuhuan sat in his lounge to accompany him. She felt bored, so she called Li Jinyuan.

Li Jinyuan was currently being interviewed.

The first reporter asked, “I heard that you’re already preparing a new album. Can you tell us about the current progress?”

A second reporter soon followed, asking about the current hot news. “Could you please talk about the recent Internet gossip of you coming from an orphanage? Someone even exposed that you stole and assaulted others there, causing you never to be adopted… May I ask if this is true?”

At this time, Li Jinyuan’s phone, which was face down on the table, began to ring.

It was a unique ringtone he had specially set.

Everyone was stunned… They’ve never seen a celebrity whose phone was on in this type of setting… Or rather, in this type of setting, no one would even have their phone by their side.

Li Jinyuan’s assistant was also startled for a bit. He was about to reach out and turn his phone off and shoulder the blame, saying that he accidentally brought it. However, Li Jinyuan naturally picked up his phone before he could act.

He smiled at the media around him and said, “Excuse me.”

Then openly picked up the call. “Hello, Huanhuan.”

The microphone was still on his chest, so everyone heard what he said. They were at first taken back, then quickly realized who he was talking to. He’s at where the winds and waves are the highest, yet he still dares to do this? Either he’s really brave and really doesn’t care about his black materials online or the things on the Internet don’t have any effect on him at all…

Li Jinyuan slightly lowered his head and began talking with Zhong Yuhuan.

And the reporters returned to their senses, hurrying to capture this scene with their cameras.

Wei Jie was perfectly calm as he stood under the stage, outside of the cameras’ views.

How old was Li Jinyuan when he stepped into modeling? He had his own ideas and Wei Jie couldn’t stop him, so it would be better for Li Jinyuan to do whatever he wanted. Li Jinyuan was the least willing to ruin his own career. Wei Jie was very clear that Li Jinyuan had large ambitions! Debuting as an idol was just the beginning.

Zhong Yuhuan was completely unaware that he was being interviewed, and asked, “How were we photographed after a simple meal together?”

Li Jinyuan was still smiling, his tone relaxed. “I also didn’t know that there would be such a coincidence.”

Really.

Zhong Yuhuan still felt a bit suspicious, but she didn’t straight out say it. She was afraid of hurting Li Jinyuan by mistake.

It would be bad if she hurt his feelings.

“Next time, don’t help me with my hair.” Zhong Yuhuan thought about it and chose to tactfully express her intention. “If we’re photographed, it’s just adding fuel to the flames. Not good.”

“How is it not good?” Li Jinyuan responded with a question.

Zhong Yuhuan choked.

She felt like Li Jinyuan was feigning ignorance.

Wasn’t there an obvious consequence?

“Those random news will always affect you,” Zhong Yuhuan said.

Li Jinyuan slightly turned his body, simultaneously taking off the microphone on his chest and said smilingly, “I know that Huanhuan cares about me… but I don’t care about any of this at all.”

The media were going crazy.

Shit.

This person was born to be in the entertainment industry!

Even taking off a microphone was so handsome!

They held their cameras and ferociously snapped pictures.

Li Jinyuan was still talking with Zhong Yuhuan. His voice was low and warm, going through the phone’s microphone and being delivered right into Zhong Yuhuan’s ears.

Li Jinyuan had said this type of thing before. Stuff like, “Thank you for worrying about me. I’m very happy…” During those times, Zhong Yuhuan would feel that he had a gentle temperament and would remember the good of others, not hesitant about expressing it at all.

But now… with these words, they made Zhong Yuhuan feel something different.

Zhong Yuhuan shook her head. “Mhm, if there’s any trouble, you can use the Zhong’s public relations team. They cost a lot of money to keep, but aren’t usually used.”

Li Jinyuan’s smile became even more gentle. “Okay.”

They were never hesitant about showing weakness in front of her.

In this world, the only one who could make them willingly step down would be her. Li Jinyuan was very clear that crying children would receive candy. He had already imprinted this saying into his brain when he was in the orphanage. It’s just that he was choosing the parents who went to the orphanage to adopt in his mind as they were choosing the children… So he had never used this technique until he was in front of Huanhuan.

This tactic worked every time.

Wouldn’t it be enough to be strong when he should be?

For example, when Huanhuan tried going out with Wen Yongchen…

Many thoughts flashed across in Li Jinyuan’s mind in that instant, but his expression didn’t change, and he didn’t say anything that shouldn’t be said.

On the other hand, Zhong Yuhuan was a bit conflicted.

On the surface, it didn’t seem like Li Jinyuan was different from before… His tone was natural, appearing intimate. Is there anything wrong with being intimate? There’s nothing wrong. They’ve been together since childhood, so there’s nothing wrong…
