Rejected by Blood, Embraced by Love: All-Round Star Goes Viral
Chapter 188 - 190: Zhi Zhi is also the real heiress?

Chapter 188: Chapter 190: Zhi Zhi is also the real heiress?

The mess on the table, of course, was left for the show crew to clean up.

Gu Zhi and Qi Hanyu helped Father Qin back to his room and assisted Mrs. Qin in getting him to rest.

Father Qin had also drunk quite a bit; now he lay on the bed in a daze, mumbling and gesturing as if toasting.

Gu Zhi was about to leave when she heard Father Qin call her several times: "Zhi Zhi, Zhi Zhi."

Gu Zhi paused for a moment, bent down, and asked, "Hmm?"

"Zhi Zhi." Father Qin waved his hand aimlessly, grabbing her wrist and holding it tightly, murmuring, "Zhi Zhi, Zhi Zhi, Daddy’s good daughter."

Gu Zhi’s heart paused slightly, unable to resist a slight smile, but Father Qin held her hand tighter and sobbed softly: "Daddy’s sorry, I’m sorry, don’t go."

Gu Zhi felt a slight tug at her heart, knowing what Father Qin meant.

In the days she spent here, although she didn’t speak much with Father Qin, she could still feel the unspoken love and fatherly care in his heart.

The more time they spent together, the more familiar and enchanted she became... so this is how a father feels.

She smiled slightly, reassuring softly, "I’m not leaving, I won’t leave."

Father Qin continued to murmur softly: "You are... you are Daddy’s only daughter..."

Gu Zhi smiled lightly, pursing her lips. Mrs. Qin, beside them, also had red-rimmed eyes but didn’t dare to cry in front of the camera. She turned and said helplessly: "Your dad’s drunk, he’s really causing trouble, ignore him, he’s not usually like this."

"It’s okay." Gu Zhi said softly, slowly coaxing Father Qin to sleep, and then gently withdrawing her hand.

[Sob sob sob, oh my God, why did this suddenly make me want to cry? The scene of Qin Dad tightly holding Zhi Zhi’s hand made me cry.]

[So strange, why is Qin Dad apologizing to Zhi Zhi? And then asking Zhi Zhi not to leave, could it be about the time Zhi Zhi was marketed with the Gu Family?]

[Maybe since joining the show, he’s felt the wealth gap between Zhi Zhi and other kids, and with so many netizens hating on the rich, if it were me as Qin Dad, I wouldn’t be able to handle it either. Sob sob sob, my heart aches for Qin Dad.]

[Even if that’s the case, there’s no need for Qin Dad to apologize, right? It feels there’s some hidden story, ahhh, so curious.]

The barrage was filled with viewers looking perplexed.

While some fans suddenly thought of something and hurriedly discussed:

[Family members, does anyone remember in the first episode when Mrs. Qin also apologized to Zhi Zhi? I found it strange then. If you link the incidents with the Gu Family and how similar Gu Zhi and the Gu Family look, could Zhi Zhi really be...]

[Oh my god/shocked, is Zhi Zhi really a true heiress too?]

[True heiress my foot, are you riding the coattails again? Can the slum heiress stay away from the Gu Family, please?]

[No, Zhi Zhi is unique, don’t put her with the Gu Family, I think Zhi Zhi is doing quite well on her own!]

The barrage immediately erupted into a heated argument.

This kind of speculation was quickly suppressed by fans and haters alike.

Gu Zhi didn’t say much, comforted Father Qin briefly, and then let Mrs. Qin go to rest.

Mrs. Qin nodded and also advised her to rest early.

Suddenly thinking of something, she quickly asked: "By the way, Zhi Zhi, who is that friend of yours, what kind of friend is he? He seems to have an unusual status, you two..."

Gu Zhi was stunned for a moment, smiled, and answered truthfully: "Just a friend, a colleague."

"...Is that so?" Mrs. Qin was half-believing, half-doubting, but didn’t ask more. "He seems quite nice. Make sure to thank him properly after the show. Anyway, it’s getting late, you should also go back to your room and rest."

Gu Zhi nodded, said no more, and turned to leave.

The barrage, however, was in an uproar:

[Alright, alright, I’ve already said they’re just friends, no need to hype it up.]

[/Angry, I don’t believe it. @Gu Zhi, do you believe what you said? Ask @Emperor Qi if he believes it./Angry/Crying!]

[/Tearful/@Emperor Qi, your wife actually says she and you are just ordinary friends, quickly punish her to admit your relationship a hundred times/Crying.]

[...Do the CP shippers have any ice?]

[Ahhhh, Zhi Zhi, don’t go back to your room, go downstairs and see what Emperor Qi is doing, can you still say you’re just ordinary friends!/Tearful!]

In the corridor, Gu Zhi was ready to go back to her room.

For some reason, she turned around and went downstairs.

At this time, there were not many people downstairs, almost everyone had gone back to their rooms to rest.

She only saw Zhuang Mingcheng, who had just finished getting water downstairs, holding a cup. He looked at her and greeted, "Miss Gu Zhi."

Gu Zhi glanced at him and nodded slightly.

"Isn’t it late, why aren’t you sleeping yet?" he asked again.

Gu Zhi responded with a hum, barely furrowing her brows, and reminded faintly, "Please let me pass."

"Oh." Zhuang Mingcheng seemed to come to his senses, quickly stepped aside, his eyes neither indiscriminately nor avoiding her, "I heard your acting is quite good, I hope we have the chance to work together."

Gu Zhi nodded, said nothing, and walked past him.

In the original script, there was also Zhuang Mingcheng, but without much description. She had no impression of him, yet inexplicably disliked him.

Zhuang Mingcheng, standing still, watched her back, frowning. She really seemed as unapproachable as rumored. It seemed connecting with Emperor Qi made a big difference, quite arrogant.

Gu Zhi didn’t notice him, walked straight into the kitchen, and saw a few figures standing at the kitchen door.

Qi Hanyu was standing tall in front of the stove, adjusting something, while Qi Yunlin and Gu Yiyi stood by the side, both looking surprised.

Gu Zhi didn’t think much of it, walked straight over.

[Ahhhh, Zhi Zhi is here!]

[I just want to admire my husband alone, why are Qi Yunlin and Gu Yiyi hanging around here? Can they leave?]

[Not to mention, with Gu Zhi here, they really look like a family of four, such a strong elder feeling (not really/dog head.)]

A few people noticed the footsteps, glanced back at her, their expressions varied.

Qi Hanyu asked in surprise, "Why did you come down?"

"Having a glass of water," Gu Zhi directly ignored the other two and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Cooking some hangover soup. You and Uncle both had quite a bit to drink tonight. If you don’t drink some hangover soup, you’ll have a headache tomorrow."

"..." Gu Zhi was somewhat surprised, wanting to take the ladle from his hand, "I can do it."

Qi Hanyu smiled lightly, "Can you cook?"

Gu Zhi: "..."

If you don’t bring this up, we can still be friends.

Beside them, Qi Yunlin’s face turned particularly ugly watching their interaction, feeling even more upset.

When did Gu Zhi become so close to Qi Hanyu!?

He frowned slightly, a bit displeased, "Uncle, your actions this time, Uncle Gong is very angry."
