Chapter 164: The Finale (Prelude)
"Youth has its own wildness."
"Body like mountains and rivers, spine upright"
"Dare to measure the sun and moon again"
"Today, only I, a young man, remain."
"Dare to challenge heaven and earth, and test its edge!"
"Braving all obstacles, who can stop us?"
"The world laughs at me, but I will strive to be stronger."
"Live up to your youth"
......
An ordinary family of three is celebrating the Chinese New Year as usual. The couple is making dumplings, while the child holds a mobile phone, his fingers constantly jumping on the screen.
The child's mother lamented, "These days, kids don't study at all; they only focus on games on their phones. How can they possibly learn anything good?"
The child's father turned to look at his child and said, "Kids are all like this nowadays. If you don't let them play games, they start causing trouble."
Just then, Ling Xia's rendition of "The Young China" came from the TV. The child playing the game slowed down the finger on the phone screen. If you looked closely, you could see the child was listening intently to the lyrics. When Ling Xia reached the climax of the song, the child sitting on the sofa involuntarily put down the game on his phone and looked up at the TV, which he hadn't paid attention to that day.
He suddenly stood up and stood in front of the TV. At that moment, the TV show was playing a group of teenagers about his age reciting lyrics. He actually watched the lyrics on TV seriously and finally couldn't help but sing along.
The child's voice was somewhat immature, but resolute.
Like him, many other children in families were listening intently to the song playing on television, feeling as if the boy in the lyrics was them. They smiled.
Children don't necessarily grow through criticism; appropriate encouragement can accelerate their growth.
As Xia sang, she became more and more excited, and her heart surged with passion, as if she had become a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child again, moving towards her goal.
"Strive to become pillars of society and live up to your youthful potential."
At this point, Ling Xia finished singing the last line and walked off the stage.
The audience erupted in prolonged applause, and then the camera panned across the faces of the audience members, each one looking energetic.
Ling Xia changed out of her performance costume and came to the car in casual clothes.
Lin Tingshen was already waiting by the car.
Ling Xia noticed that he looked different today. He seemed to have dressed up carefully, his hair looked styled, and he was wearing a high-end custom-made suit.
Lin Tingshen warmly opened the car door when he saw Ling Xia arrive.
Inside the car, the two chatted about interesting things that had happened this year. Ling Xia leaned comfortably on Lin Tingshen's shoulder, chatting casually. But a woman's sixth sense told Ling Xia that the person next to her was definitely hiding something from her, and she had a big question mark in her mind.
The two arrived at Lin Tingshen's villa in City A. Ling Xia had been there several times before, so she walked in easily. However, the lights were usually on, but this time they were off.
Ling Xia entered the foyer, but looked for the light switch on the left side of the door.
With a "snap," Xia turned on the switch and was stunned by the sight before her.
This is......
The once spacious hall was now filled with people: Ling's father, Ling's mother, Liao Juan and Lin's father, as well as staff from Ling Xia's studio. At this moment, they were all smiling as they looked at the shocked Ling Xia.
A huge bouquet of flowers sat between them, and a banner that read "Lingxia, Marry me" floated above the canopy.
Ling Xia turned around and looked at the handsome man standing next to her. The man took her hand and led her to the center of the crowd.
He knelt on one knee and pulled out a diamond ring from somewhere. "Lingxia, I don't know when it started, but my eyes can't leave you. Please give me a chance to take care of you, to be your support, to be your reliance. Let's build a little family together. Marry me!"
The onlookers exclaimed excitedly, "Marry him! Marry him!"
Ling Xia could tell he was very nervous; his voice was trembling as he spoke.
Ling Xia lowered her hand, which had been covering her mouth in surprise, and her eyes filled with tears. "I do."
She was willing to believe in him, to be her man, her husband, and the father of her children.
……
A few days later, after the staff at the Civil Affairs Bureau had started work, the two quietly obtained their marriage certificate.
After they got their marriage certificate, Ling Xia went abroad to film a movie. Lin Tingshen was very suspicious and afraid that a handsome blond man abroad would steal his wife away, so he insisted on going with her.
The price they paid was that netizens traveling abroad photographed the two on a date, directly leading to their exposure.
Xia thought, "If they find out, they should just make it official!"
Then netizens saw that writer Zhuang Shengxiaomeng updated his blog with a message: "We got married," along with a marriage certificate and a photo of the two of them.
"What's going on? Did Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng send this to the wrong account? Whose alternate account is this?"
"My God! What kind of identity exposé is this?"
Many netizens began searching for clues, and soon discovered that Ling Xia's IP address was usually the same as Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng's IP address, which was the same mobile phone number.
As soon as Ling Xia finished filming a scene, Sister Zhao handed her a small fan and slowly said, "You are Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng."
Ling Xia: ...
When Sister Zhao saw Ling Xia's actions, she understood. "Go to Bolun and explain. Because of this news, your marriage has been overshadowed by other news and is now the second most popular topic. The top trending topic is Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng's identity being exposed. Bolun has already crashed several times."
Ling Xia logged in with her phone and discovered that her current account was Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng. She sighed, typed a few words, and sent them out.
Sister Zhao raised an eyebrow, quickly glanced at Bolun, refreshed the page, and saw it.
V庄生晓梦: Grinning.jpg. Have you all gotten your focus off track?
V Lingxia: I'm married, Mr. Lin.
Vlin: May we spend the rest of our lives together. Please guide me, Ms. Vlin.
The discussion among netizens immediately became lively.
"Gotcha!"
"So you two are actually the same person!"
"Sigh, I always thought Zhuang Sheng Xiaomeng was someone Ling Xia was clinging to, but look, she's taking care of herself."
"A true master is indeed a master; he can excel in any industry."
Many big names in the entertainment industry forwarded Ling Xia's blog post.
