Chapter 145: Identity

Under everyone’s astonished gazes, Song Ning gradually calmed down. She turned to look at Mu Chen who was standing next to her and smiled.

This did not escape the female host’s notice. “So President Mu is familiar with Ning Xia? I mean, Miss Song Ning.”

Mu Chen took the microphone from Song Ning’s hand and held her hand with his other hand before he said, “She’s my wife…”

Another uproar broke out again.

Director Pan spoke up at this moment, drowning out the noises. “In fact, this is fate. Liang Zheng and I grew up together, and Liang Zhen’s son ended up funding Yi Yao. Liang Zhen stood up against many people and insisted on casting Ning Xia, a girl with no acting experience at that time. In the end, after many twists and turns, Mu Chen ended up marrying the girl his mother cast in the movie he invested in. Everyone, don’t you think they’re fated to be together?”

A resounding ‘Yes’ rang in the air.

It had to be fate. After all, how could there be such a coincidence in this world?

The female host grew even more excited. “I think many people like me are interested in what Miss Song Ning, I mean, Mrs. Mu, has been up to over the years. How did Ning Xia become Song Ning? How did Song Ning become Mrs. Mu?” Then, she pointed the microphone at the audience before she asked, “Doesn’t everyone want to know?”

Another resounding ‘Yes’ thundered in the hall.

Mu Chen wrapped his hand around Song Ning’s shoulders, allowing her to lean on him. He wanted to ease her nervousness.

Song Ning inhaled deeply and raised the microphone before she said, “When I was at the door earlier, I heard all the senior’s experiences over the years. They’re all wonderful and inspiring. However, I’m nowhere close to being as inspiring or wonderful as they are…”

Song Ning’s voice was soft and gentle. It was soothing, like a hand gently brushing across the listeners’ hearts.

“When I was filming Yi Yao, I was in the first year of high school. For the sake of filming, I took a year off from school. After the filming was completed, something happened in my family so I couldn’t participate in the movie’s promotional activities. Following that, my maternal grandparents fell ill so my mother and I moved back to her hometown in Jiangnan. We stayed with them until they passed. After we returned, it was time for me to prepare for my college entrance exam. I didn’t enter any film academies and chose to fulfill my grandparents’ wish instead and studied to become a Chinese medicine doctor. I’m now a Ph.D. student studying Chinese medicine at M University. I’ll be graduating in a year so you can call me Doctor Song…” Song Ning smiled gently and said, “You can call me Little Song as well. Song is my maternal grandmother’s surname, and I retained the name Ning in memory of Yi Yao. It’s not as complicated as everyone thinks it is…”

Song Ning continued to say, “Many people asked why I didn’t apply to study in a film academy. During the time I was filming Yi Yao, I had discussed this with Director Pan and Aunt Liang Zhen. I explained my decision to them. Although they felt I was talented, they could see my personality might not be suited to the entertainment industry. They knew the industry would make me jaded in the future. Both of them respected my decision and supported me. I’d like to thank both of them.”

Then, Song Ning bowed and said, “Thank you, Director Pan.”

Director Pan was very happy. “I really have no regrets now!”

Suddenly, someone shouted from below, “Are you Ning Xia, the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family? What’s your connection to Zhuang Ji?”

This question was immediately met with rebukes.

“Are you stupid? How can you ask such a question? Why would you bring this up during such an occasion?”

“What’s the big deal? If I don’t ask now, when should I ask then? Song Ning’s going to be embarrassed after this. You better record this. Otherwise, the video will definitely be taken down later, and they’ll remove her from the hot searches…”

“Why would she be embarrassed? The Mu family has already publicly announced that Song Ning is the Young Madam of the Mu family!”

“It’s been such a long time since I’ve seen her. News about her has been blowing up recently.”

“Brother, this is our chance to get to the bottom of things! Today’s matter will definitely make the headlines!”

“Hey, stop talking and focus. Let’s listen to Miss Ning, I mean, Young Madam Mu’s explanation.”

“Is there a need to listen to her explanation? If you read all the news in recent days you’ll know Ning Xia is the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family. The Ning family chased her out, but they’re desperately trying to acknowledge her now. Song Ning is the boss of Zhuang Ji that has gotten famous lately. Song Ning is also the Young Madam of the Mu family. Think about her identity. I can’t even make this up if I want to.”
