I don't care about dating reality shows or the entertainment industry!

Ning Zhi gently stroked Su Youzi's hair.

"The happiest thing in my life is having you as my daughter."

Su Youzi's eyes welled up with tears, and she sniffed.

"But Mom, I don't want my actions to affect your career."

Ning Zhi smiled, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes deepening, radiating maternal glow.

"My biggest goal in entering the entertainment industry was to earn money to pay off my debts. Now that my debts are cleared, I'm happy to be able to be with you and Chenyan."

She gently patted Su Youzi's hand.

"Don't worry, Mom can handle everything."

"Mom, I..." Su Youzi began, but was interrupted by Ning Zhi.

"Silly child, what are you worried about? What kind of storms hasn't your mother weathered?"

"Moreover, Mom also hopes to be able to appear in public with you openly and honestly."

Su Youzi was deeply moved by her mother's determined gaze.

She nodded gently, a tear sliding down her cheek.

-

The next day, on the set of the TV series "Jianghu".

Su Youzi had just finished filming an action scene and was preparing to wrap up.

Ning Zhi walked towards her with a gentle smile on her face.

Su Youzi smiled sweetly at her.

This scene was captured by several entertainment reporters who were waiting on set.

As if they had caught wind of some big news, they excitedly carried their cameras and swarmed around them.

"Sister Zhi! Sister Zhi! I heard that you've been visiting Su Youzi on set every day lately. You and Youzi really have a deep sisterly bond."

A reporter asked the question first, his tone full of gossip.

Ning Zhi chuckled softly, her gaze sweeping over everyone before finally settling on Su Youzi.

She took Su Youzi's hand, her tone gentle yet firm.

"It's a deep affection, but not the sisterly kind."

The reporters at the scene were stunned and looked at each other blankly.

Holy crap! What's going on??

There was total silence.

The reporter carrying the camera trembled slightly and almost dropped it.

Their eyes widened and their mouths slightly open, like a scene frozen in time.

The air seemed to be frozen.

You can hear the needle drop.

We've uncovered a major story!

One of the reporters who knew Ning Zhi well was the first to react.

He chuckled twice, trying to break the awkward silence.

Ning Zhi probably misspoke, or perhaps she said it on purpose to protect Su Youzi.

He had to quickly help Sister Zhi cover up the situation.

"Sister Zhi, you just love to joke around."

Ning Zhi smiled and shook her head.

Her smile was gentle, yet carried an undeniable firmness.

"I'm not kidding."

Her gaze swept over every reporter present, her tone calm yet firm.

"Youzi is my daughter, I gave birth to her."

A simple sentence, yet it exploded like a bomb in the crowd.

"boom--"

It felt like something exploded in my mind.

The reporters were completely dumbfounded.

How...how is this possible?!

The previously noisy film set instantly fell silent.

Even the crew members stopped what they were doing and all looked at Ning Zhi and Su Youzi.

Their eyes were filled with shock.

Everyone was silently processing this explosive news.

The two do look alike; Su Youzi is known as "Little Ningzhi," but in the past twenty years, no reporter has ever photographed them together!

“I remember Yuzu’s mother is her agent, isn’t she?” a reporter said.

“Yes, yes, I saw it when I visited the set several years ago,” another reporter chimed in.

Ning Zhi tightened her grip on Su Youzi's hand, and the mother and daughter exchanged a glance.

Ning Zhi looked at the reporters again and slowly said, "Twenty-three years ago, I registered my marriage with Youzi's biological father in the United States. After returning to China, an accident took away the child's father."

Her voice trembled slightly. She took a deep breath and continued, "And my child..."

Ning Zhi's gaze fell on Su Youzi, her eyes filled with affection.

"...I was kidnapped."

The scene was silent, with a gentle breeze blowing across the sand and raising clouds of dust.

“We only recently found each other again,” Ning Zhi continued.

Su Youzi's eyes welled up with tears as she took a deep breath.

The reporters were completely dumbfounded.

What was originally just a routine set visit turned into a shocking revelation!

If this news gets out, it will definitely cause a stir in the entire entertainment industry!

This is absolutely amazing!

Ning Zhi looked firmly into the camera.

"Everyone, I have something else to announce today. I have decided to retire from the entertainment industry."

This is absolutely the biggest news in the entertainment industry this year!

none of them!

"Sister Zhi..." a familiar reporter began.

“I want to spend more time with my family and make up for the time I’ve missed over the years,” Ning Zhi said, gently stroking Su Youzi’s hair.

She smiled slightly, said nothing more, took Su Youzi's hand, and turned to leave the film set.

The crowd was left bewildered in the wind.

After everyone realized what was happening, they immediately started editing and cutting the news on the spot.

They were afraid of missing out on the exclusive news if they were even a step too slow.

The news spread rapidly online.

The Weibo servers almost crashed.

Ningzhi Suyouzi and her daughter

Ning Zhi retires from the entertainment industry

They're not sisters, they're mother and daughter.

Su Youzi's true identity

Lin Niangyu and her daughter

Ning Zhi and her daughter Su Youzi occupied five of the top ten spots on the trending topics list.

Each one is followed by a bright red "爆" (explosive) character.

Netizens were completely outraged.

[Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Su Youzi is Ning Zhi's daughter?!]

I was stunned. I suspected everything, but I never doubted that they were mother and daughter!

[Twenty-three years! That's too cruel! My heart aches for Sister Zhi.]

[It turns out Xiao Ningzhi is their biological daughter!!!]

[Lin Niangyu's drama is amazing, they even cast a real mother and daughter!]

[A bold guess!! They met on the set of the drama "Lin Niangyu"!!!]

Wow, the casting director did a really good deed!

【Blessings! Blessings!】

Some people have also started digging into Su Youzi's past.

No wonder Su Youzi has such outstanding acting skills at such a young age; she inherited Ning Zhi's genes.

[There's one more thing worth digging into! Yuzu's acting was incredibly good when she was little, but there was a period when her acting was absolutely terrible. Could this be related to her background?]

[I'm in the industry, and I heard from a friend that Su Youzi's acting fees all went into her guardian's pocket until her agency contract expired last year, at which point the fees were finally paid to Su Youzi.]

[Holy crap, I'm getting goosebumps! Everything's connected! Is Yuzu deliberately ruining her acting to avoid being controlled by her guardian anymore??]

[It seems so, oh my god, our Yuzu is having such a hard time!]

[The pomelo was stolen! That person is a monster! They must be severely punished!]

I hope Yuzu can be happy from now on and never have to go through this pain again!

Public opinion has completely changed.

What started as doubt and speculation has turned into heartache and blessings.
