The Fake Heiress's Inner Thoughts Were Heard by Her Entire Family - Chapter 34: Some Simple Self-Defense Moves

Chapter 34

Jing Yi cupped her chin in her hands, staring blankly at the agitated Jing Zeqian who was alone.

The other people in the hospital room were all calm.

The cause of the situation could be traced back to the morning. After spending a day in the hospital, Jing Zejun had mostly recovered, and the doctor said she could be discharged.

Seeing that Jing Zejun had more or less recovered, Jing Zeyou brought up the matter of her agent.

Jing Zeyou’s opinion was to change to a new agent, but Jing Zeqian didn’t quite agree. He thought they should switch to a completely different company.

When they first found Jing Zejun, Jing Zeqian had already prepared a contract, intending to sign her to his own company.

Jing Zeqian’s slightly furrowed brow revealed a hint of irritation. “Jun Jun, I still don’t understand. I’m in the entertainment industry myself. What’s the difference between you being in my company and someone else’s?”

Every time this topic came up, Jing Zejun would change the subject, and this time was no exception.

But this time, it angered Jing Zeqian. If it was just a matter of competing for scripts, it would be fine, but this time such a serious incident had occurred. It was enough to show that both the agent and the company were incompetent.

Was his Startrack not better than those lousy companies?

Jing Yi yawned, which was particularly noticeable in the quiet hospital room.

Seeing that everyone’s attention was now focused on her, Jing Yi laughed dryly, trying to minimize her presence.

[Was my yawn really that loud?]

Jing Zeqian glared at Jing Yi before continuing to question Jing Zejun, “Jun Jun, are you worried that Startrack doesn’t have resources? Or that it can’t provide you with a better platform?”

Seeing that Jing Zeqian had misunderstood to this extent, Jing Zejun became a bit flustered and tried to explain, “Second brother, that’s not what I meant…”

“Then tell your second brother, what exactly are you thinking?”

[Probably that once she enters Startrack Entertainment, she’ll be known as Jing Zeqian’s sister, the CEO of Startrack, and not as Jing Zejun anymore.]

Jing Zeqian was stunned, at a loss for words for a moment.

Beside him, Jing Zeyou’s expression was complex. He hadn’t expressed any opinion on this matter, but in his heart, he had also hoped to bring Jing Zejun into Startrack.

However, it now seemed that he might not understand Jing Zejun as well as Jing Yi did…

Lin Ruiqing sighed, sitting to the side without speaking.

The two brothers were both trying to give things to Jing Zejun, but they had never considered what she actually wanted.

Hearing Jing Yi’s words, Jing Zejun bit her lip lightly, trying to suppress the bitter emotions in her heart.

Jing Yi hadn’t noticed that the room had fallen silent again. Looking at the somewhat helpless Jing Zejun, she sighed inwardly.

[The achievements she’s worked so hard for would immediately become ‘Oh, it’s because she’s Jing Zeqian’s sister.’ How could she be content with that?]

Jing Zejun sniffled and forced a smile, looking towards Jing Zeqian.

“Second brother, I’m not worried that Startrack doesn’t have resources or a platform. It can’t be worse than when I first entered the entertainment industry, especially since Startrack is such a big platform.”

Jing Zeqian lowered his head in silence, looking somewhat dejected.

“At first, it was to earn money for my adoptive parents’ surgery. I didn’t come from a professional background, nor did I have any big companies backing me. I entered the entertainment industry based solely on my looks.”

Lin Ruiqing remembered Jing Zejun’s life back then and felt a pang of sympathy. Jing Beicheng hugged her, silently comforting her.

“But later, they passed away. I no longer needed to earn money for their surgery, but I still stayed in the entertainment industry.”

Extras, supporting roles, nobodies – Jing Zejun had played them all. It wasn’t until she got a role as the second female lead that she felt it had all been worth it.

To become a good actress, she had done a lot, but there was also a lot she hadn’t done.

Just as Jing Yi had said, once she entered Startrack, she would no longer have the name Jing Zejun.

“Startrack can give me a lot – good scripts, good resources, and good production teams.”

Jing Zejun knew that with Jing Zeqian’s care and love for her, these things would be placed before her immediately. She wouldn’t have to go through the hardship of auditioning or competing for roles and scripts.

Some people who knew her identity would even question why, with such a background, she wouldn’t use it, and instead put on an act of working hard.

Jing Zeqian opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.

Jing Zejun smiled, “But second brother, after so many years, it seems like all I know how to do is act. I still want to try and see how far I can go…”

Jing Zejun’s words almost made Jing Yi want to applaud, but seeing Jing Zeqian’s expression, she lowered her raised hand.

It was probably better not to provoke him.

Jing Yi wanted to stay out of it, but Jing Zeqian didn’t give her the chance. He deliberately sat down next to her, his face taut, and asked, “What’s your opinion?”

“Huh?” Jing Yi pointed at herself in confusion. “My opinion?”

[Wait, even the aunts and uncles haven’t said anything, what opinion can I give?]

Seeing that everyone in the hospital room was looking at her, Jing Yi knew she couldn’t escape.

“Well, I think it’s not conflicting. Second brother, you can protect her, and even if Jun Jun is in another company, it doesn’t prevent you from protecting her. As for her career, Jun Jun will handle it herself.”

Jing Zeqian crossed his arms, looking at Jing Zejun whose eyes were full of expectation. He sighed, “Alright! I won’t force you to come to Startrack anymore.”

The people in the hospital room had smiles in their eyes, and the atmosphere finally became less tense.

“But you must change your agent! That agent is both stupid and has poor timing. How could I possibly feel at ease leaving Jing Zejun with him again?”

Jing Zejun hesitated. Actually, Brother Li had been quite good to her. Although he was a bit weak-willed, he still took good care of her.

However, since Jing Zeqian had compromised, she should also take a step back. Moreover, the higher-ups in the company probably knew her identity by now.

The matter finally had a conclusion, and Jing Yi’s expression brightened a bit.

Seeing her smile, Jing Zejun’s lips also curved upwards involuntarily. “By the way, Yi Yi, how’s your hand?”

Jing Yi was taken aback for a moment. She had almost forgotten about it, mainly because it didn’t seem to hurt anymore.

Lin Ruiqing looked at her hand. “Xiao Qian applied medicine to it last night. It looks a bit better. Apply it a few more times over the next few days.”

Jing Zeqian sat to the side with a straight face, wearing an expression of ‘it’s none of my business’.

[He would be that kind? He probably poisoned the medicine, right?]

Jing Zeqian smiled through gritted teeth, looking like a villain from a historical drama. “You think I was kind enough to apply medicine for you? I poisoned it!”

Jing Yi’s eyes widened. “I knew you poisoned it!”

“Stop teasing her,” Lin Ruiqing said with a smile, patting Jing Zeqian’s arm. “He applied the medicine for you last night, afraid of waking you up.”

Jing Yi glanced at the proud-looking man beside her, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

“By the way, Yi Yi, you know Sanda?” Lin Ruiqing asked curiously.

Jing Yi’s smile became a bit stiff. “I just learned a few simple moves for self-defense.”

Jing Zejun remembered the scene from earlier. Jing Yi’s movements didn’t seem like she had just learned a few simple moves.

The brothers Jing Zeyou also didn’t quite believe it, but tacitly agreed not to expose Jing Yi.

Lin Ruiqing smiled gently. “I think it’s quite good. Girls should learn these things too. It would be best if Jun Jun learned some as well. It’s good for self-defense and fitness.”

Jing Yi relaxed a little, looking up at Lin Ruiqing with a bright smile.
