The press conference was simultaneously broadcast live on the Internet. The audience was still immersed in the charm of Dong Youjing and Lee Jinjae for the first half hour. When the reporter asked this question, their eyes widened immediately.

【What is that guy talking about?Is he crazy? 】

This is the first reaction of many people.

Because of Song Chenghong's previous revelations, everyone knew that Dong Youjing High School was going to work part-time. The probability was that her family background was not good, but saying that she was an orphan was really a bit of a nonsense smear. It was hard for them to believe this.

But then the girl's reaction made the audience realize something.

The camera at the scene was always aimed at the seats of the main creators. Although Dong Youjing tried hard to control her expression, her obviously stiff body still exposed her mood.

【……Oh My God? !What he said is true? 】

The girl's fingers holding the microphone were so hard that they turned white. Seeing her helpless look, everyone felt their hearts twisted together.

Immediately, they were angry.

[I don't want to know if this is true, I just feel that Youjing is going to cry. 】

[This reporter is too much!Youjing has never said these things, but she obviously didn't want to say them, why did she hurt her like this! 】

[So angry, I really want to rush into the screen and beat him up! 】

Li Maoren even pulled his face down when the reporter spoke, purely out of anger.If it wasn't for him not being able to rush over to beat someone in front of the camera, the manager would have held the kid by the collar to let him know that he can't talk nonsense.

Li Zhengjae's next words also surprised the audience, and they rarely saw the other party angry.Although he usually behaved like a good gentleman, but when he was really angry, he felt a kind of suffocating pressure.

The reporter who asked the question sat down dejectedly under the man's extremely oppressive gaze, and the colleagues around him moved away silently.

It's not uncommon for journalists to ask tricky questions at press conferences; that's what they do.Lee Jung-jae has experienced many such scenes. When he was young and inexperienced, he was speechless when asked.

Of course, after so many years, he has been able to keep calm.

However, asking sharp questions does not mean exposing scars.

Dong Youjing's background has nothing to do with the theme of today's press conference, and it doesn't involve any social issues. The exposure of these is purely to satisfy some people's voyeuristic desires.

Reporters from some entertainment tabloids may like this kind of topic very much, but the ones invited today are all serious film and television media, and most of them don't like to see such shameless behavior.

The reporter who was vaguely isolated at this time also realized that he had said something wrong. Li Zhengjae's reputation among reporters is still very good. This time he was able to make the other party angry. This is something that many seniors cannot do. Too bad he's not proud at all...

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to find another way to express himself, but he didn't expect to overturn directly.

At the same time, a commotion erupted in YG's practice room.

"Axi, does that guy want to die!"

The trainees gathered together to watch the launch conference of "Homecoming" made a lot of noise because of the reporter's speech, and Song Minhao's expression also changed. Although he didn't follow up with the scolding, the anger in his heart was not lacking at all.

Dong Youjing is such a kind girl, even if he did something misleading, she still forgave herself... Why did that person bully her like this?

He even hoped that the person sitting next to Dong Youjing was himself, so that he could stand in front of her and protect her.

Nam Joo Hyuk also had the same idea as Song Min Ho.

He looked at the screen, and the hand beside him clenched silently into a fist.A classmate of the modeling academy saw him and wanted to say hello, but was taken aback by his expression.

Thinking of something, Nan Zhuhe suddenly stood up, put on his coat without saying a word, and walked out of the classroom quickly.

……

After Lee Jin-jae spoke, the reporter's question was dismissed like this.

Afterwards, the reporters who were named by the host asked more conventional questions. Although some of them asked more sensitive questions, Dong Youjing responded very well by relying on the answers prepared by the company in advance.

Her face was still a little pale, but her attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. Instead of being immersed in the episode just now, she worked hard to pull herself together and completed the task of the press conference.

This made the reporters in the audience feel pity and a little more appreciation at the same time.

After the press conference, the main creators all returned to the backstage lounge.

Only then did Dong Youjing let go of her forced smile, showing a tired look on her face.

Jin Fenghai couldn't bear it, "You Jing, are you alright?"

She shook her head, "It's okay."

Li Zhengzai frowned slightly when he saw her drooping eyelashes.The Dong Youjing he saw was always smiling gently, like the sunshine in spring, her downcast appearance was suddenly dazzling.

"Director, can I have a few words with You Jing alone?"

Li Zhengzai looked at Jin Fenghai, who waved his hands, "You guys say, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."

He closed the door to the lounge as he left, and the lock clicked.

Dong Youjing seemed to be thinking about her own affairs, and didn't notice the other party's departure.

Li Zhengzai sighed in his heart.

"Sorry, Youjing, I didn't know your life experience before."

Dong Youjing came to her senses when she heard his words, "It's okay, many people don't know."

She curled her lips mockingly.

"I don't want people to pity me because I'm an orphan. I hope they like Dong Youjing just because she is Dong Youjing."

"But now it seems that my persistence is meaningless."

"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh." Li Zhengzai leaned against the table and said softly.

The corners of Dong Youjing's mouth were slowly flattened, she stared forward for a while, then turned to look at the man next to her.

"Seniors and the director don't like me, I know."

"I……"

Dong Youjing interrupted him, "Senior has his reasons, and there is no rule in the world that everyone must like me."

"I just feel wronged."

Her clear eyes flooded with a layer of water, but the girl held back.

"At first I was very panic, I didn't know what I did wrong, and I was afraid that being too eager would make my senior hate me even more, so I could only pretend to be stupid."

"In the eyes of seniors, the way I smile even though I don't want to, is it ugly?"

Li Zhengjae never knew that his attitude hurt Dong Youjing so much, he apologized in his heart, "I didn't mean that."

"It's okay." Dong Youjing repeated, "It's okay."

"I have no reason to lose my temper. Senior obviously did nothing wrong, and he helped me..."

She began to blame herself again, "I shouldn't blame senior."

Li Zhengjae was not angry because of what Dong Youjing said, her mood fluctuated too much today, anyone sitting in her position would not be able to maintain rationality like a robot.What's more, what she said is not wrong, she has the right and reason to feel wronged.

Li Zhengzai once thought that her mind was more complicated than ordinary girls and not pure enough, but now he realized that he was wrong.

When did he become like those arrogant bastards too?

Jumping to conclusions when you don't know someone well, prejudice against a high school girl just because of a rumor that no one has verified.

She was clearly a shivering little animal in the wilderness, and she tried her best to disguise herself because she was afraid.When others show a little kindness, she always wants to return it with guilt.

Now it seems that Jin Fenghai's judgment is correct, Dong Youjing is indeed a good boy.On the contrary, he was blinded by a leaf, and he couldn't see her preciousness.

"It's my fault."

Li Zhengjae walked to her side and saw the girl's surprised eyes.

He pulled away the chair next to Dong Youjing and sat down, and said sincerely: "For the sake of my atonement today, can you forgive me?"

Dong Youjing was so surprised that she didn't even notice her tears falling.

Crystal clear teardrops slid down her fair and delicate face, she stared blankly at Li Zhengzai, "Senior?"

"Sorry, you can't go in!" The security guard's voice suddenly sounded outside, "Wait, you are..."

He didn't know what he saw, his tone was very surprised, and his momentum was a little weaker.

The two people in the room looked at the door at the same time, Li Zhengzai frowned in his heart, stood up and opened the door.

"What's going on outside?"

A man wearing a long windbreaker passed by him, rushed into the room quickly, and hugged Dong Youjing into his arms.

The man still had the chill from the outside, Dong Youjing was held in his arms, and struggled subconsciously at first, but soon heard a familiar voice.

"Youjing, it's me."

It was difficult for Zhao Yincheng to explain his impulsiveness, but when he saw Dong Youjing being embarrassed, there was only one thought in his mind.

go to her.

"senior……"

Li Zhengzai wanted to stop the man's hand from stopping, and Dong Youjing also called him senior, but the sense of trust in this call was completely different.

He didn't know who it was, but the other party obviously made Dong Youjing feel more secure than himself.

Li Maoren heard that someone broke into Dong Youjing's lounge, so he hurried over.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhao Yincheng hugging Dong Youjing and not letting go, his heart skipped a beat, he knew it!

"Zhao Yincheng Xi!" Li Maoren restrained his urge to grind his teeth.

Zhao Yincheng let go of Dong Youjing, and gently combed the hair around her ears with his fingers.

"Sorry, I was too anxious just now." He returned to his usual demeanor and smiled.

Li Zhengzai's eyes turned between him and Dong Youjing, feeling dissatisfied for some reason.He was silent for a moment, then turned his head and closed the door.

"If someone else sees it, you will cause trouble for Youjing."

If Jin Fenghai was here, he would also be surprised. Li Zhengjae has always been a very good senior in other people's mouths, and he rarely speaks to his juniors in such a tone.

Zhao Yincheng didn't say anything, he knew that he was really impulsive.

Dong Youjing gently shook his palm and explained for him, "Senior is too worried about me."

Li Zhengzai looked at the tears on her face that were still wet, and swallowed what he wanted to say.

The girl smiled at him, "You don't have to pay attention to what I said before. I was a little irrational today, so I was talking nonsense."

Zhao Yincheng looked down at her, and held her hand back.

Li Maoren felt sorry for his own artist, and was very angry at his actions.

He took three deep breaths before speaking calmly, "Youjing, let's go back."

"Just now the organizer told me that there is a back door here, which should be able to avoid reporters."

Dong Youjing shook her head, "There's no need to avoid it, it's better to speak clearly at this time."

"If everyone is curious, it is better to tell them directly, and save those unreasonable guesses."

She left behind the broken and weak look just now, and her eyes became firmer, "I believe that people who like me will not give up on me just because they know this."

When she said this, she looked at Zhao Yincheng.

Li Maoren felt his temples twitching, if he just wanted to drive Zhao Yincheng out of the house just now, now he is already thinking about how to drive this man who tricked his artist out of her world.

Li Zhengjae suddenly felt that he had never seen this girl clearly, and every time he thought he knew what kind of person she was, she always surprised him.

Dong Youjing wanted to leave with Li Maoren through the gate of the venue, Zhao Yincheng didn't intend to go with them.

He saw that his manager didn't like him, so he smiled, "I'm going back first, if there is anything to do, send me a message, and I will be there right away."

Li Maoren wished that he would disappear quickly, Dong Youjing nodded to him, "I will."

Before leaving, she brushed past Li Zhengzai and raised her head to meet the man's eyes.

"Thank you for today, senior."

There was genuine gratitude in her tone, but also polite detachment.

Li Zhengjae didn't know why he felt a little uncomfortable, obviously her attitude was what he had always hoped for before.

Just like ordinary partners, well water does not violate river water.

Dong Youjing walked out of the gate of the venue, and the number of reporters waiting outside was a bit beyond her expectation.

"You Jing, you don't need to do this." Li Maoren said.

"I know." She smiled.

But she took a deep breath and walked out.

As soon as Dong Youjing showed up, she was surrounded by reporters. The microphone that was stretched out was about to poke the tip of her nose. Li Maoren quickly stood in front of her to maintain order.

Dong Youjing didn't speak until the crowd quieted down.

"I don't seem to need to hide the fact that I'm an orphan now."

Everyone silently looked at the girl standing in the center. Compared with the huge group of reporters, she looked petite and fragile.Even though this is their own work, many of them still feel unbearable.

Dong Youjing uncovered her own scar as if she didn't care, "Yes, I am an orphan. My parents abandoned me. All they left me is a name and a string of numbers representing my birthday."

"But I don't think it's a big deal."

"I just grew up normally and became who I am now, and I still get a lot of likes."

Her brows and eyes curved into a nice arc, "That's enough."

The reporters all stared at her blankly. This smile was not so sweet, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting their hearts.

Li Maoren protected Dong Youjing and walked out, the crowd actively parted ways.

The girl straightened her back, and no one thought she was the poor little girl who needed protection.

She glanced casually across the crowd and stopped for a few seconds.

"Youjing, what's wrong?"

Li Maoren asked with concern.

"It's nothing." Dong Youjing felt that she seemed to have misread it.

Nan Zhuhe hid behind the telephone pole, his heart was beating wildly, his hand was tightly held by his side, but he didn't dare to go out to face Dong Youjing.

He is not eligible.
