Chapter 131: I'm Not Letting Them See It Anyway

  The next morning, three pieces of news about Tang Xiaosheng appeared in the media in Jinghua City.

  The first piece of news is about the authenticity of Tang Xiaosheng's private daughter. Last night, at the entrance of Beijing First Kindergarten, Tang Xiaosheng publicly acknowledged in front of many media reporters that Xiao Huang Rong was his biological daughter, so now the whole world knows that Tang Xiaosheng indeed has a private daughter.

  This news shocked not only many ordinary citizens and Tang Xiaosheng's fans, but also many people in the entertainment industry. Because once a private scandal like this is exposed, it can directly ruin an entertainer's future.

  Tang Xiaosheng is currently very popular and still young, now he chooses to acknowledge his illegitimate daughter, the impact on his future career in the entertainment industry is self-evident, from this perspective, it is undoubtedly a very unwise decision.

  Therefore, many people in the entertainment industry found his actions difficult to understand and felt that he could have simply denied or concealed the matter. Huang Xiaorong was originally an orphan; if Tang Xiaosheng had claimed she was adopted, most people would have believed him.

  Of course, some people also admire Tang Xiaosheng's behavior, because admitting to having a mistress is something that requires great courage, and comes at a huge cost in terms of both money and reputation.

  The second piece of news is about Tang Xiaosheng's breach of contract. This morning, Tang Xiaosheng's brokerage company, Blue Sky Entertainment, held a press conference to announce that due to Tang Xiaosheng's breach of contract, the company has officially terminated its contract with him starting today. The company has also submitted an application to the Beijing Hua City Court to sue Tang Xiaosheng for 10 million yuan in damages.

  One hundred million RMB is no small sum of money, however, Tang Xiaosheng was not particularly worried.

  Last year, when signing with Blue Sky Entertainment, he carefully reviewed all the contents of the contract and even asked lawyer Zhao Weilian to advise him. At that time, Blue Sky Entertainment valued Tang Xiaosheng's popularity and was eager to sign him, so they made many concessions in the contract. If a lawsuit is really filed, Blue Sky Entertainment can get compensation of no more than 2 million yuan at most.

  Of course, whether it is 10 million or 20 million, this will only be known after the court trial. And for such a brokerage dispute, it will take at least a year and a half to sort out, so Tang Xiaosheng is not in a hurry for the time being.

  The third news is about Huang Xiaorong's life experience. The media already knows that Huang Xiaorong is the illegitimate daughter of Tang Xiaosheng, but who her mother is remains unknown.

  There are journalists who have found out that Huang Xiaorong was originally an orphan in an orphanage, and later adopted by Dr. Lin Meimei. As a result, some media speculated that Huang Xiaorong might be the daughter of Tang Xiaosheng and Lin Meimei. Coincidentally, Lin Meimei suddenly resigned from her position at the Beijing Municipal Armed Police Hospital yesterday and left Beijing, reportedly to travel abroad, which has also led to much speculation in the media.

  Actually, Lin Meimei (Mei Chao Feng) just retreated to a cave in Nanfeng Mountain because she had to find a way to quit her killing habit. She couldn't possibly tell her family about this, so she lied and said she was going abroad for tourism.

  Due to the increasing media reports on Lin Meimei and Tang Xiaosheng's relationship, in order to prevent the situation from further deteriorating, on the second day after the news report, Tang Xiaosheng contacted several media outlets in Jinghua City and held a press conference in his personal name to clarify the recent events.

  Although Tang Xiaosheng only contacted seven or eight media outlets, nearly a hundred reporters showed up at the press conference. Because Tang Xiaosheng rarely attends media meet-and-greets, having signed with Blue Sky Entertainment for almost a year, he has faced the media in person no more than five times and refused all interview requests, which is surprisingly low-key given his current popularity.

  Tang Xiaosheng rarely holds a press conference, so the media naturally don't want to miss it, especially with so many things happening in the past two days, they also want to get to the bottom of it.

  The press conference was held at 10 o'clock in the morning. In addition to Tang Xiaosheng, those who attended the press conference also included Little Dragon Girl and Little Huang Rong.

  Xiao Huang Rong, due to being ridiculed by her kindergarten classmates as a "wild child", had a lingering shadow in her young heart and would often ask Tang Xiao Sheng, "Dad, am I really your biological daughter?" Tang Xiao Sheng thus decided to take her to the press conference, so that the whole world would know that Xiao Huang Rong was indeed his biological daughter, and no one would ever mock her again.

  After the press conference officially began, Tang Xiao Sheng held Little Huang Rong in one arm and Little Long Nu in the other, sitting down at the front of the podium to face over a hundred media reporters below.

  Facing the numerous media, Little Dragon Girl looked a bit nervous. She had never been used to such lively gatherings and wouldn't have come today if it weren't for Tang Xiaosheng. Tang Xiaosheng also knew she wasn't used to it, so he held her jade hand tightly all along.

  Unlike Little Dragon Girl, Little Huang Rong was not nervous at all on the scene. Her big eyes sparkled with curiosity as she looked at the reporters below the stage. She turned her face, pouted her small mouth and asked strangely: "Dad, why are these people always staring at us?"

  Tang Xiaosheng smiled and said, "Of course, the press conference is surrounded by people. It's just that this explanation is too profound. Because Dad looks very handsome and Rong'er looks very cute, so they always look at us."

  "Oh." Little Huang Rong seemed to have understood, her small hands immediately covering her face, and then she buried her little head in Tang Xiao Sheng's arms, saying in a childish voice, "I won't let them see me!"

  Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but smile, however, Little Huang Rong finally calmed down. He picked up the microphone on the scene, paused for a moment, and said: "First of all, thank you to all the media reporters who came to attend this press conference. Everyone should know that Huang Xiaorong is my biological daughter. To be precise, she is the biological daughter of me and Long Xiaoxue..."

  Before she could finish, a reporter interrupted, "Mr. Tang, you're only 23 years old this year, while Huang Xiaorong is already 5 years old. If Huang Xiaorong is your biological daughter, didn't you give birth to her when you were 18?"

  Tang Xiaosheng nodded and calmly said, "Yes, I indeed had Huang Xiaorong when I was 18 years old. Everyone makes mistakes in their youth, and I am no exception. As a public figure, I set a very bad example. Here, I would like to apologize on behalf of myself to everyone. I hope you all don't follow my example and have children before marriage."

  After finishing, he stood up, bowed deeply for a few seconds before sitting down and continuing to speak. "Since the mistake has been made, I will take responsibility for my own actions. Dragon Xiaoxue and I have already discussed it and we will choose a day to get married, giving our daughter Huang Xiaorong an intact family."

  It was at this point that many of the journalists present felt quite surprised, because it's rare for a celebrity to be as candid as Tang Xiaosheng. The two topics that celebrities are most reluctant to discuss are marriage and having children, and they always try their best to keep these things under wraps.

  But Tang Xiaosheng was fine, bringing his wife and daughter to the press conference, a family of three showing off their private life without reservation.

  Among the reporters present, many were still fans of Tang Xiaosheng. After all, they had been paying attention to Tang Xiaosheng's affairs and appreciated his character, experience, and acting skills. Now that they saw Tang Xiaosheng announcing his marriage and childbirth at the press conference, these reporters also secretly regretted it for him.

  Because they think that with Tang Xiaosheng's conditions, he was originally very likely to become a superstar in the domestic film and television circle, but due to the appearance of this press conference, this potential superstar is likely to fall from now on.

  In the entertainment industry, many stars' popularity often plummets after getting married and having children, slowly fading from people's sight. Even if they want to get married and have kids, it's usually only considered after establishing a certain foundation in their career. Actors like Tang Xiaosheng, who are young, just 23 years old, got married, had children, and still managed to make a name for themselves in the industry, are almost unheard of.

  "Mr. Tang, yesterday Blue Sky Entertainment announced that they have terminated their contract with you and are seeking 10 million yuan in damages for breach of contract. 10 million is not a small amount, will this matter affect your life?"

  "It's okay."

  "After parting ways with Blue Sky Entertainment, will you sign with a new agency? Will you act again?"

  "Only the future knows what will happen in the future, all I can say is that anything is possible."

  ……

  Tang Xiaosheng patiently answered more than a dozen questions from the media reporters, until he found that the reporter's question was getting farther and farther away, then ended the press conference and left the scene with Little Dragon Girl and Little Huang Rong.

  Xiao Huang Rong was originally supposed to attend class today, but in order to attend the press conference, she temporarily asked her kindergarten teacher for a half-day leave. After the press conference ended, Tang Xiao Sheng decided to take her back to kindergarten.

  As the kindergarten and the press conference venue were only two streets apart, Tang Xiaosheng carried Little Huang Rong into an alleyway, preparing to walk directly to the kindergarten, while Little Dragon Girl drove alone to the mall to buy vegetables.

  Just over a minute after walking in the alley, Tang Xiaosheng suddenly found someone following behind him.
