Niu Guangping sighed, "It's just that this child has suffered..."
Ye Mo looked at him and asked, "Did your policeman friend say whose child this is?"
Niu Guangping: "Oh, I heard that child is the child of their third aunt. They had too many children to raise, so they gave the child to the couple... The police also verified this with that third aunt. That's the story."
"No," Ye Mo shook his head, his eyes sharp and cold. "They're lying. That child isn't from that third aunt's family!"
She looked at Niu Guangping and said, "If you and your policeman friend have a good relationship, I hope you can ask him to help with a paternity test for that child and that third aunt... I'm certain that the child isn't that third aunt's."
Ye Mo was certain that this wasn't just baseless speculation, but rather something 888 had told her: that child wasn't from the Hong Family, nor was she from her third aunt's family; she had been abducted.
"... If possible, you can have your police friend investigate human trafficking," Ye Mo said.
When she brought up human trafficking that day, she wasn't just making up a charge against the Hong Family couple; she had factual basis in the claim that 888 had told her that the child was bought by the Hong Family couple and there was no adoption involved.
"..."
Ye Mo Niu Guangping and the others naturally believed Ye Mo's words—they knew that Miss Ye could tell fortunes, and was incredibly accurate at that; this had been confirmed by the entire crew. So, who else would they believe but her?
But...
"My friend is just a nobody at the police station," Niu Guangping said, scratching his head. "There are many things he can't get involved in."
He was just at the police station and knew some inside information beforehand. Of course, the main reason the other party told Niu Guangping so much was because Niu Guangping was also involved in the case, and this information would be reported later, so it wouldn't have much of a problem if it got out.
"... How about I call him and see?" Niu Guangping tentatively suggested, "But I can't guarantee he can change the minds of everyone at the police station..."
Ye Mo sighed and said, "I understand. I'll think of something too."
In short, this case absolutely cannot be closed so hastily. If the police really believe that " Hong Cancan " is that third aunt's child and send the child to her house, she will probably not escape the fate of being sold a second time.
Therefore, Ye Mo cannot remain uninvolved in this matter.
But who can she ask for help... her older brother or her father? If it's either of them, they should be able to find someone willing to help, right?
Ye Mo pondered who to ask for help. Seeing her deep in thought, Niu Guangping and the others didn't disturb her and quietly left. After all, they also had their own work to do and could only steal a short break.
Ye Mo didn't have much time to think about it. Their filming schedule was fixed every day, and as the lead actress, she didn't have much free time.
However, there were no night scenes today, so they finished work as soon as it got dark. This was the earliest they had finished work in recent days. According to the assistant director, Director Zheng saw that the filming had been too intense recently, so he gave everyone a break for one night to catch their breath.
This naturally drew cheers from everyone.
After Ye Mo finished filming the last scene, she saw He Mingzhang standing there holding a large bouquet of camellias. After she finished filming, he came over and handed the flowers to her.
Ye Mo: "..."
Feeling
Under the gossipy gazes of everyone, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. When she looked up, she unsurprisingly saw Yao Yuwei's cold and jealous gaze.
Ever since he first gave her flowers, He Mingzhang has been sending her a bouquet of camellias every day after she finishes work, which has caused everyone to look at her differently now, and they don't know what they're talking about behind her back.
Even though Ye Mo didn't go over to listen, he roughly knew what everyone was whispering about. After all, even Shen Yan couldn't help but mutter behind his back that Mr. He. He's behavior of sending flowers to Ye Mo every day was a bit inappropriate.
He phrased it euphemistically, but in reality, He Mingzhang's actions appeared rather ambiguous to outsiders.
"... Mr. He," Ye Mo wasn't one to beat around the bush. She looked at He Mingzhang and said, "I think we need to have a serious talk."
Upon hearing this, He Mingzhang showed no surprise. He simply nodded and said, "Okay... when?"
Ye Mo: "There's no time like the present, let's do it today."
He Mingzhang had no objection to this, but instead asked, "Then I'll choose the location? Perfect, let's have dinner together tonight."
Ye Mo nodded indifferently, "Okay."
He Mingzhang called his assistant to reserve a spot. Ye Mo took the flowers to her private dressing room to remove her makeup, and Ning Aiqi, as her personal makeup artist, was in charge of this task.
Ye Mo on the stool, letting her take off his hair and remove his makeup, but his gaze couldn't help but drift to the bouquet of camellias on the table, and suddenly a thought struck him.
She reached for her phone, searched for the meaning of camellia flowers, and soon, information about the meaning of camellia flowers appeared before her eyes.
"The flower language of camellia is, admiration..." A voice with a hint of flattery rang in her ears. Ye Mo subconsciously covered the phone screen with her body, Momo turned her head, and looked at the person behind her.
Ning Aiqi, who was bowing and looking at her phone screen, thought, "..."
She stood up awkwardly, gestured to the earrings on her hand, and said, "I didn't mean to look; I was just bending down to take them off for you."
But as soon as she bent down, she saw the information on Ye Mo's phone screen, and her eyes couldn't help but drift upwards. She even unconsciously read the words aloud.
Ning Aiqi: Miscalculation, miscalculation.
"So, the camellia symbolizes expressing one's affection..." she tried to change the subject. "Then Mr. He sends you camellias every day, isn't that like him confessing his love to you every day?"
She said it herself, but in the end, she surprised herself, staring at Ye Mo in disbelief. " Mr. He. He, do you like you? But aren't you uncle and nephew?"
Ye Mo: "... I don't know what his purpose was in sending me flowers, but although we are nominally uncle and nephew, our two families are not related by blood at all. It's just that my grandfather saved his father, which is why our families know each other!"
She still needed to correct this point, otherwise, when the topic of the two of them came up, coming from Ning Aiqi and others, it gave off a rather suggestive feeling.
Ning Aiqi snapped out of her daze and said, "So, he really is pursuing you, right?"
Ye Mo:... So, where did you get that conclusion from? I was just correcting the relationship between him and me.
Ning Aiqi, seemingly struck by a sudden thought, said with great interest, "Since your two families have no relation, wouldn't it be perfectly fine for the two of you to be together? You're both so handsome and beautiful, aren't you a perfect match!"
Even before they were officially together, she was already imagining them having children, saying, "You two are so good-looking, your baby will definitely be a beautiful baby."
Ye Mo: "..."
Ye Mo felt there were so many things she had to complain about that she didn't know where to begin.
"... Let me correct you," she said to Ning Aiqi, "Genetics is like buying a lottery ticket. Just because parents are good-looking doesn't mean their children will be good-looking. Often, very good-looking parents have children who are actually quite ordinary-looking."
