starlight aria

Seeing her expression almost weeping with joy, Du Sichen suddenly felt sad.

Even if it's just a few words, she just wants to hear her own praise.

Du Sichen knew where his contradictions were. He didn't like his job in the entertainment industry to take away his sister, so he pretended to be indifferent, trying to force her to give up.

Du Sichen did not attend the premiere of the play as he said.

He sent several grand and magnificent flower baskets, which lined up with the congratulatory flower baskets of many brokerage companies, record companies, and Uranus superstars.

The card reads: "To my beloved sister".

Du Yunqian looked at the card, feeling full of melancholy.

Du Sichen never accommodated others, including his own sister.

When Du Sichen didn't praise her hard work, Du Yunqian could only hide her grievance in her heart silently, because Du Sichen once taught her that emotional reactions are not helpful to solve things, and he would never cry because of his sister And give in.

After years and months, acting like a baby is ineffective, so Du Yunqian had to learn to be strong.

However, not watching it live doesn't mean that Du Sichen doesn't care about Du Yunqian's first stage play.

Someone recorded everything and submitted it to Du Sichen without omission.

"Missy has been depressed recently. Although the stage play is very successful, she is not very happy. Would the general manager call to comfort everyone?" Cheng Zhongxuan handed over a series of reports, including the box office figures of the stage play, news bulletins, Professional theater review.

"It doesn't matter if it doesn't affect the work." Du Sichen was unmoved.

"General Manager, Missy just wants to get your compliment, even if it's just a few words."

"Even just a few words?"

"Yes." Cheng Zhongxuan nodded.

Du Sichen glanced at his right-hand assistant. Recently, he frequently expressed his sympathy for Du Yunqian, which made Du Sichen suspect that he was too cold-blooded.

Cheng Zhongxuan worked by his side for three years, and his performance has always been excellent. Later, he was sent to Du Yunqian's side to help, helping with some media and public relations work in the age of innocence, and also acting as his eyes and ears.

"Miss worked hard..."

"Effort is the most basic condition for success, which I taught her since she was a child."

"If possible, please invite the general manager to attend tomorrow's fan meeting, the eldest lady will be very happy..." Cheng Zhongxuan boldly proposed, and he put an envelope on the desk.

"I see, you go back there!" Du Sichen was noncommittal.

"Yes."

After Cheng Zhongxuan left, Du Sichen fell into a long silence.

Du Sichen began to feel numb to the guilt of making his sister sad a long time ago.

The history can be traced back to the year when he decided to send Du Yunqian to study abroad.When the lonely girl received his call, she was sobbing on the other end of the phone. As a brother, he didn't say anything to comfort her. He just listened to her crying quietly, and didn't use an overly calm voice until she was tired from crying. Tell her that he will assess her schoolwork progress every day, and tell her that there is no time to cry.

He set one goal after another, and Du Yunqian also worked hard to achieve it. He tried to make his sister forget the loneliness of not being around her family while she was busy.

He wasn't sure if this method was effective, but Du Yunqian's academics did improve by leaps and bounds, quickly catching up with children of the same age, which made him impressed.

She is a younger sister that he is proud of, but what he repays her has never been love.He made various demands, set strict standards, and deliberately ignored her efforts.

Occasionally, he would ask himself, why should he be so unreasonable?

He didn't find the answer, and his strict requirements for Du Yunqian never changed.

After Du Yunqian returned to China to study, he tried to be a good brother, try to go home for dinner, and find time to spend with his sister.

Of course, things don't always go as he planned, and occasionally there will be times when Du Yunqian goes abroad for more than a month, making Du Yunqian feel lonely.

Even if Du Yunqian expressed his grievance tactfully, he would not express the slightest guilt, but would only say lightly, "Busy business, you have to be considerate of brother and parents."

He has never been a brother who is gentle and doting on his sister, so it is not too surprising to miss the first performance of Du Yunqian's stage play again.Asking the secretary to send a few flower baskets, plus a few expensive gifts, is enough to make up for his failure to show up.

He didn't believe that anyone would really care whether he was present, including Du Yunqian.

guilt?She doesn't have that extra emotion.

But this time, he felt a strange sense of unease... Especially when he recalled that it would be early morning, Du Yunqian told about the dream that was almost the same as reality.

It's not that Du Sichen can't say it, it's just that he doesn't want to.

For a long time, his relationship with Du Yunqian was formed through countless lies.He built this illusory world single-handedly, and controlled her life as an elder brother. He never thought that the relationship between brother and sister would end one day, and the lie would be exposed one day.

Du Sichen had discussed this matter with his parents, and the parents agreed with each other and were willing to tell Du Yunqian the truth.

"Yunqian is an adult, so it's meaningless to hide it now."

"But..." Du Sichen still had doubts.

"Yunqian has the right to know her life experience, and she can't hide it from her for the rest of her life just because she doesn't remember what happened when she was a child."

The parents seem reasonable, but in fact they reveal that they don't care about their adopted daughter.Bringing her up has already done their duty, and they don't plan to be responsible for her for the rest of their lives.

However, for Du Sichen, things were not that simple.

Now Du Yunqian is not under his control and does not rely on his money. If even the status of brother and sister is deprived, what is left between them?

He did not deny that his parents did not take care of Du Yunqian, their feelings were not warm, and he was too strict. Du Yunqian has always only been afraid of himself, and he has never been a good brother who loves his sister.What he saw in Du Yunqian's eyes was deep wariness most of the time.

Du Sichen believed that once the fetters of family affection were lifted, Du Yunqian would leave the family without looking back and completely sever ties with the Du family.

That was the last thing he wanted to see.

He would rather lose everything than lose this sister whom he has taken care of for many years.

Du Sichen picked up the envelope left by Cheng Zhongxuan, which contained a ticket to the fan club.

The time is tomorrow night.

"Miss Du, someone said they would come to visit you!"

Before the release of the new album, the record company decided to hold a small fan meeting to help Du Yunqian's popularity increase.Half an hour before the opening, Du Yunqian was taking a break in the lounge, when a staff member suddenly shouted outside the door.

"If it's a reporter, I won't see you now."

"It's not a reporter, it's someone you know very well."

familiar person?

Du Yunqian was wondering, when someone outside the door suddenly said, "It's me!"

The voice that could be lowered made Du Yunqian's heart skip a beat. She jumped up and opened the door. The one standing at the door was really Du Sichen.

The suit of a famous European brand showed his tall and well-proportioned figure, and his light smile made his face even more handsome.Just standing in the dark corridor, Du Sichen seemed to be glowing himself, making the staff who passed by stare intently.

"For you." Du Sichen stuffed the flowers into Du Yunqian's arms.

"How did brother know..."

"Cheng Zhongxuan told me, I happened to have a meeting nearby, so I walked around..."

He obviously came to see her specially, but he had to find an excuse.

Du Sichen couldn't help laughing at his innocence, he smiled, and reached out to stroke Du Yunqian's hair, "I heard that your stage play is very successful?"

"Yes, the audience and critics responded very well." Du Yunqian smiled.

"Thanks for your hard work."

"will not."

"You did very well."

"Thank you bro."

Du Yunqian's face shone brightly, revealing the light of happiness for a moment.She blinked, squeezing the tears back into her eyes, trying not to lose her composure.

Seeing Du Yunqian's expression almost crying with joy, Du Sichen suddenly felt sad.

Even if it's just a few words, she just wants to hear her own praise.

He couldn't even do such a simple thing, and he needed his subordinates to remind him.

Du Sichen knew where his contradictions were. He didn't like his job in the entertainment industry to take his sister away, and he also hated Du Yunqian's appearance of working too hard for his acting career, so he pretended to be indifferent, trying to force Du Yunqian to give up.

Du Sichen opened his arms, Du Yunqian froze for a moment, as if he didn't know how to respond.

A little annoyed by her slow response, Du Sichen simply took a step forward and reached out to hold Du Yunqian tightly in his arms.

Pressing her chin on the top of Du Yunqian's head, her hands wrapped around her back possessively.Du Yunqian struggled, protesting that he couldn't breathe, Du Sichen realized how hard he was.

"When the work is over, let's go home and stay for a few more days! I'm the only one at home..."

Du Yunqian showed a flattered smile, "Do you feel lonely too?"

"I'm human, and of course there will be times when I feel lonely."

"I used to be alone at home, and now I finally let my brother advocate this kind of feeling..."

Du Yunqian smiled softly, but it was the first time that Du Sichen felt her loneliness so clearly.He always asked her to be strong, told her to endure loneliness, and never cared about her thoughts.

Until he forced her away and left his side, he still didn't know how to reflect.

"elder brother."

"how?"

"Thank you for visiting me today."

"You're welcome."

Since Du Yunqian was sensible, he always talked to him in such a polite and unfamiliar tone. Du Sichen was used to it, but today he realized that it was not like a brother-sister relationship at all.

Their conversation didn't last long, and the staff came to call Du Yunqian to the stage.Du Yunqian looked at him with attachment, and then left surrounded by the staff.

Du Sichen stood silently in the darkness, watching Du Yunqian leave him step by step.

Over the years, they had been together less and more apart, this was the first time Du Sichen felt a little lonely.

Du Yunqian was delighted, and performed extraordinarily hard at the fan meeting. Fans responded enthusiastically, and the media also covered it extensively.

Du Sichen was very satisfied with the results of his appearance, but what did he get in return?

At noon, Du Sichen walked into the staff restaurant, wanting to have a simple lunch and show his affinity. Many employees saw Du Sichen coming in, and hurriedly got up to say hello, but Du Sichen ignored him, and his attention was blocked by the wall. TV sucks away.

On the screen, the female reporter's eloquent words mentioned the name Du Sichen was most concerned about.

After listening to a few words, he realized that today is the first sale of Du Yunqian's album.

Under the expectation of the media and fans, Du Yunqian appeared on the top floor of a high-rise building, and then hung down to sign his huge poster.

"What's going on?" Du Sichen couldn't help blurting out with a pale face.

"General Manager, Missy is really brave."

"I have a pre-order for the new album this time, and I really look forward to Missy's performance this time."

"Missy has become more and more beautiful recently..."

The surrounding employees expressed their opinions one after another.

Everyone knows Du Sichen's love for his younger sister, and every frown and smile of this young lady of the Du family can affect his mood, so he tried his best to flatter in his words.

Having no time to care whether these were sincere comments or flattery, Du Sichen's head was bloodshot and he stared at the TV screen, unable to look away.

What the hell is she doing?

If there weren't too many people present, Du Sichen would have been yelling.

There was no safety net underneath, and there were no other safety measures for her body except the rope. She was hung in mid-air like this, holding a pen in her hand, staggering in the air, trying to write the enlarged version of her name.

Doesn't she know how dangerous it is?

"I don't understand..." Du Sichen muttered to himself, his mind went blank because of the excessive shock.

"General Manager, what's wrong with you?"

"What's the point of signing a poster?"

"It's just a gimmick by the record company. It's very common these days. Now that there are so many celebrities, of course they have to devise some tricks to attract the audience."

What a trick, this is simply a joke with your own life!

"Too dangerous!"

Someone finally saw that Du Sichen's expression was wrong, and quickly explained, "General Manager, don't worry, the record company has insured huge amounts of insurance for celebrities."

Huge insurance?No matter how much money is spent, it can't change his sister's life!

Du Sichen looked at the employee who answered with sharp eyes, and several employees lowered their heads in fright.

The entire signing event lasted only 10 minutes, but every minute felt like a torment.

"Why didn't she come down?" Du Sichen said coldly, suppressing his anger.

Du Yunqian smiled and waved downward to the audience and reporters.The wind from the tall buildings swayed her from side to side, her thin clothes fluttered in the strong wind, and her small body swayed accordingly.

"Let the reporters take more photos! The higher the exposure rate, the happier the record company will be." The employee next to him tried to explain.

"Does she know it's dangerous!" Du Sichen said angrily.

He is mad!

Of course Du Yunqian knew, but she would not refuse.

Last time, because of the series, she jumped into the swimming pool and pretended to drown, and filmed for several hours in the cold weather, which caused her body to lose temperature and was sent to the hospital for treatment.

Another time, due to the needs of the plot, she had to jump out of a car driving at high speed. Although there were safety measures, Du Yunqian failed to jump onto the mat, her face was cut by the rough ground, and she had to rely on makeup for the rest of the scene Covering the wound... Time and time again, Du Yunqian just couldn't avoid these dangerous actions, but he never refused.

Du Sichen pretended not to see it, but it didn't mean he wasn't hopping behind his back.

On the screen, Du Yunqian finally landed slowly on the ground and was welcomed by warm applause.She was untied and ushered onto the stage like a hero to start the autograph session.

Du Sichen let out a breath slowly, finally able to relax.

Terrible!If this kind of scene happens a few more times, his lifespan will definitely be shortened, but it is impossible for him to really blame Du Yunqian.

He wanted to maintain his image as a bystander as much as possible, but this role became more and more difficult.

no!He had to talk to Cheng Zhongxuan and solve this problem through him.

He wanted Du Yunqian to reduce this kind of dangerous work, at least within his line of sight, and he didn't want to see his sister in such a state where she would lose her life at any time.

This feeling is familiar.

Du Sichen recalled the accident when Du Yunqian was kidnapped when he was a child, and couldn't help but feel lingering fear. It was the first time he realized that he would lose her.

On the day she returned safely, he swore to himself that he would never let Du Yunqian disappear from his life again.

After watching these horrific scenes, Du Sichen had long since lost the mood to eat, so he turned and left, returning to the office.

Surprisingly, Cheng Zhongxuan waited at the door of the office, and rushed forward when he saw him.

"General manager, there is an urgent matter to report to you..."

Is it too late to report now?Will there be an accident for Du Yunqian next time?He will get the news?

"I've already seen it." Du Sichen said angrily after glancing at Cheng Zhongxuan.

He approached the office, and Cheng Zhongxuan followed in, closed the door and locked it.

"What should we do?" Cheng Zhongxuan's face was tense, and the eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses revealed a trace of nervousness.

This is unusual. At the beginning, Du Sichen promoted Cheng Zhongxuan to be his assistant because he had the calmness that never changed before the collapse of the mountains. He had just graduated from school, and he had the calmness and tranquility that had gone through the storm. He was an ordinary young man. A rare trait.

"Go back and tell Du Yunqian that you are never allowed to do such a dangerous move again, no matter how high the insured amount is, I will not allow it!"

This wording is too autocratic, and it seems too caring. Du Sichen thought about it, and then changed his mind, "No, you secretly filter her work. For jobs with dangerous scenes, communicate with the other company in advance and arrange everything properly. , I don't want to see this kind of scene..."

After spending a few seconds thinking about Du Sichen's words, Cheng Zhongxuan knew that he had misunderstood, so he shook his head vigorously, "General manager, no! It's the gossip weekly that will be published this afternoon. I got a copy in advance..."

Cheng Zhongxuan put the Gossip Weekly in front of Du Sichen, and the title on the cover immediately caught Du Sichen's attention.

"Du Yunqian is not the Du family's biological daughter! 20 years of life experience!"

Du Sichen was dumb and couldn't say a word.

"Isn't it released yet? Is there a way to stop it?"

After a while, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Zhongxuan with a burning gaze.

"There is no way to stop it." Cheng Zhongxuan shook his head.

Du Sichen plucked up the courage to read the content, but he was restless and didn't have the mood to read it word by word.

Cheng Zhongxuan explained from the side, "The report stated that the eldest lady is not the biological daughter of the Du family. The Du family seems to have kindly adopted the orphan daughter of a deceased friend, but in fact they have usurped the inheritance that the eldest lady should have received, and there is a huge amount of money behind it. Commercial interests……"

"Is there any direct evidence?"

"Although there is no direct evidence, the reporter visited many old employees who served the Du family back then, and they testified that Mrs. Du was never pregnant during that period."

Du Sichen rubbed his forehead, feeling desperate for this development.

He pushed the weekly magazine aside.

no!He absolutely cannot let Du Yunqian see these contents, but now he has no ability to stop it.

If money can solve it, he is willing to give everything, but he can't control the media that does whatever he wants.

"Where is Yunqian?"

After asking in a panic, Du Sichen remembered the scene he had just seen.

That was a live broadcast, and Du Yunqian should still be at the autograph session now.

He suddenly stood up and reached for his coat.Now is not the time to sit here and worry, he must find Du Yunqian immediately.

At least he had to make it clear to her before the media found her.

"Let's go! Let's go find Yunqian, I'm going to find her now!"
