Time Travel: The 18th Line Star She is Not Simple

Chapter 212 What do you want from me?

"Miss Bai looks very healthy. I'm afraid she's just making an excuse not to drink?" Mr. Huo said with a laugh.

"Mr. Huo, you're joking. Feifei is indeed not feeling well. After joining the crew, she has been drinking Chinese medicine every day," explained the director.

“Yes, our crew is filled with the strong smell of Chinese medicine every day. People who don’t know would think we are filming a drama about Chinese medicine.” The screenwriter also explained with a smile.

"What kind of illness is so serious that it still doesn't get better after taking Chinese medicine for so long?"

Mrs. Ming was very worried about Bai Feifei's health. She was also concerned about her poor health, fearing that it was the result of long-term abuse by the Bai family.

She wanted to take Bai Feifei for a full body check-up, but seeing Bai Feifei's lukewarm attitude towards her, now was not a good time to bring this up. She would wait until the time was right and then take her for a comprehensive check-up. She must make sure to take good care of her body.

"I'm sorry, this is my personal matter, I can't comment."

Seeing that Bai Feifei didn't want to say more, Ming Zhiqi raised his glass to interrupt Mrs. Ming's continued questioning and signaled everyone to drink.

The matter of Bai Feifei not drinking is officially over.

At the dinner table, people were drinking and drinking.

Different from Bai Feifei's coldness and indifference, Mrs. Ming kept talking to Bai Feifei, smiling and looking very happy.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Mrs. Ming was trying to please Bai Feifei, but Bai Feifei didn't appreciate it.

The strange atmosphere between the two of them puzzled everyone at the dinner table.

"What's the situation with this Madam Ming?"

"Why do I feel like Madam Ming is trying to please Feifei?"

"And Feifei doesn't seem to appreciate it."

"I don't know why, but I just like Feifei's indifferent attitude."

"You are a masochist."

"But she looks so handsome like this!"

"Mrs. Ming is trying to please her, but she's like this. Is she making fun of me?"

"Look at Feifei's eyes. Is that the look in Na Qiao's eyes?"

"Is it bad for Feifei to treat investors like this?"

"The investors have no objections, so we shouldn't meddle in their affairs."

The meal ended in such a weird atmosphere. Bai Feifei thought that her attitude was cold enough and Mrs. Ming would not come to her again after the dinner. After all, the rich wife in the wealthy circle had her own dignity and it was impossible for her to put her face in the cold shoulder.

However, to Bai Feifei's surprise, she saw Mrs. Ming again on the set the next day.

She raised her eyebrows, greeted Mrs. Ming coldly, and went to prepare for filming.

Mrs. Ming didn't care about Bai Feifei's coldness. She came to the set as usual every day and stayed there all day.

Most of the time, Bai Feifei was busy filming and had no time to talk to her. She didn't care, as long as Bai Feifei talked to her for a few words that day, she would be happy all day.

Because Mrs. Ming was on the set every day, it was inconvenient for Qin Minghao to visit her. Qin Minghao was depressed for a long time because of this.

Bai Feifei had no choice but to take time off when there was no filming to go out and accompany him in order to calm him down.

Bai Feifei thought that as long as she ignored Mrs. Ming, she would get bored after a while and leave on her own.

But after a month, she still came on time almost every day. Bai Feifei didn't want to waste any more time and decided to talk to her clearly.

So I made an appointment with Mrs. Ming to have tea in a secluded place.

This teahouse is ancient and charming, and being in it makes one feel extremely peaceful.

In particular, Bai Feifei's graceful tea-making movements pleased Mrs. Ming, who kept praising her for having such a good daughter.

Bai Feifei calmly brewed the tea, handed it to Madam Ming, and said calmly: "Madam Ming, let's get straight to the point. What do you want from me by coming to the set every day like this?"

Mrs. Ming's smile froze, and her heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles. She didn't want to show it in front of Bai Feifei, so she lowered her head to drink tea to hide her sadness.

After drinking the tea, she calmed down and said gently, "You misunderstood. I just came to see you."

"Mrs. Ming, let's not beat around the bush. I am very satisfied with the way you handled Ming Lanxi. If you feel guilty about Ming Lanxi, you don't have to. She has already paid the price for what she did."

Bai Feifei sipped her tea calmly, as if she was unaware of Mrs. Ming's sadness just now.

Mrs. Ming was afraid that Bai Feifei would be unhappy, so she immediately explained, "No, my visit to see you has nothing to do with Lan Xi. It was Chengxuan who said that you didn't want to go back to the Ming family. I missed you so much that I wanted to come and see you every day."

"Mrs. Ming, we haven't done a paternity test. Are you so sure that I'm your daughter?"

"Then are you willing to do a paternity test with me?" Mrs. Ming asked cautiously.

Bai Feifei refused straightforwardly.

It turned out that the Bai Feifei who longed for her parents' love had died, and the one who survived was the cold-faced and hard-hearted Bai Feifei.

She is living a good life now and doesn't need her parents' love to make it better.

Her body often retains the despair and disappointment that the original owner felt at the moment of jumping off the building, so she can never forgive the person who caused all this.

Although the Ming family is also a victim, so what?

If the original owner were still alive, perhaps he would forgive them, but unfortunately, there is no if.

After a moment of silence in the tea room, Mrs. Ming smiled a smile that was uglier than crying. "It's okay. If you don't want to do it, we won't do it. I just hope you can allow me to watch you from the side. Or, give us a chance to make up for the harm you have suffered over the years."

"No need. I am doing well now and I don't need you to make up for anything. Please don't appear in front of me again in the future. This will affect my work and life."

"But I want to make it up to you." Madam Ming said anxiously, "I'm sorry, if we hadn't been negligent back then, we wouldn't have let you leave us and suffer for so many years."

"Mrs. Ming, some injuries cannot be repaired. In fact, I understand what you mean by doing these things. You are just seeking peace of mind. But why should I cooperate with the performance just because you want to seek peace of mind?"

"No, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that. I really just wanted to make it up to you. It doesn't matter if you don't forgive us. I just wanted to do something for you."

"What makes you so self-righteous? Money? Power? Want to do something for me?" Bai Feifei sneered, "Have you ever asked if I need it?"

"Fei Fei..." Mrs. Ming stammered, tears in her eyes and a feeling of being choked up in her heart.

"Mrs. Ming, can your so-called compensation make the harm I have suffered disappear?"

Mrs. Ming shook her head.

Bai Feifei continued, "If you can't, why do you always appear in front of me and remind me again and again how ridiculous my life has been for the past twenty years."

"Mrs. Ming, from the moment you lost me, I am no longer your daughter."
