After I Transmigrated into the Novel, I made the Heroine Fall for Me - Chapter 16

“You’ve always liked that kid Yun Yifan, haven’t you?”

Dad Fang’s words hit Fang Qingying like a bolt from the blue, leaving her utterly stunned. Had the original owner’s feelings been that obvious?

Now the question was, what could she say to deny Dad Fang’s claim?

Seeing Fang Qingying remain silent, Dad Fang pressed with a stern face, “So I guessed right?”

Dad Fang had pondered this for a long time. Yun Yifan always wore a cold expression, as if everyone owed him eight million yuan.

And this was the guy his little princess had a crush on?

Clearly, his daughter hadn’t seen enough handsome men, which was why she’d fallen for that brat Yun Yifan.

Unaware of Dad Fang’s wild imagination, Fang Qingying racked her brain, determined not to admit the original owner’s feelings for Yun Yifan.

“Dad, you guessed wrong,” Fang Qingying forced herself to retort.

Now even more curious, Dad Fang asked, “From the moment you entered the entertainment industry, every event you attended, every commercial or drama you filmed, they all aligned with that brat’s schedule. With all that, you still won’t admit it?”

She blinked innocently, pretending not to understand, her dark eyes filled with confusion. “Dad? What are you talking about? I was actually following Gu Shengxiao, you know~”

At this critical moment, Fang Qingying had managed to recall a small but crucial piece of memory just enough to save her from disaster.

The original owner had indeed pursued Yun Yifan, but Yun Yifan himself had been chasing Gu Shengxiao. In other words, she could twist the narrative to make it seem like she, too, had been after Gu Shengxiao.

Dad Fang’s first reaction was disbelief. But seeing his daughter’s genuinely puzzled expression, he couldn’t help but ask, “Are you sure?”

He didn’t suspect Fang Qingying was acting because he knew his own daughter’s acting skills or lack thereof, all too well.

“Of course I’m a hundred percent sure.” Fang Qingying deployed her best acting cute skills, standing up and clinging to Dad Fang’s arm with a sweet, coquettish tone.

Dad Fang, utterly defenseless against his darling daughter’s coquetry, immediately surrendered. Still, he couldn’t resist asking one more question.

“But didn’t you especially dislike that kid Shengxiao?”

Dad Fang’s question was a fatal counterattack.

Fang Qingying: “…”

She forced a smile. It had to be said Dad Fang really knew the original owner inside out.

Noticing her silent smile, Dad Fang grew even more suspicious. “Was I wrong?”

Hadn’t she always disliked that girl?

Little Gu Shengxiao had been such an adorable mochi ball back then. Standing next to Fang Qingying, their cuteness had multiplied exponentially.

Yet Fang Qingying had treated Gu Shengxiao with nothing but disdain, bullying her every chance she got.

And now, as an adult, she suddenly liked her and even followed her into the entertainment industry? That was just absurd.

“Dad, people grow up, and so do their thoughts~” Fang Qingying took a deep breath and explained with a bright smile.

Dad Fang rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “In other words, you’re fickle?”

Fang Qingying: “…”

So frustrating! But he was her dad, she couldn’t hit him.

Before she could respond, a knock sounded at the study door.

Knock, knock, knock.

“Dad, it’s time for Xiao Ying’er to eat.”

A clear, melodious voice came from outside the door, as gentle as a soft breeze and light rain.

Fang Qingying immediately felt a sudden surge of excitement, as if it were an instinctive reaction. In a daze, she walked to the door, reached out, and turned the knob.

This action was completely beyond her own will.

Standing outside was a man, about 1.87 meters tall much taller than her.

He wore a thin white shirt, its hem tucked into dress pants. Extending his hand toward Fang Qingying, his well-defined fingers resembled flawless white jade.

With slightly lowered eyes, he gazed absentmindedly at the top of Fang Qingying’s head, his tone carrying a hint of grievance as he asked, “Why didn’t Little Ying ride in her brother’s car?”

The visitor was none other than Fang Qingyu, the original host’s older brother, the ultimate doting sibling in the entire novel. For the sake of the original host, he had confronted the male and female leads head-on, even risking his own life to avenge her.

Of course, someone blessed with the protagonist’s halo wouldn’t die so easily. In the end, Fang Qingyu met an unexpected demise, and the Fang couple, heartbroken, left China, never to set foot there again.

Though the Fang family wasn’t completely swallowed up by the male lead in the plot, their vitality was undoubtedly severely damaged.

Fang Qingying’s fingertips twitched slightly. She took a small step forward and threw herself into Fang Qingyu’s embrace without saying a word.

Faced with this sudden display of affection, Fang Qingyu felt no joy, only deep concern that Fang Qingying must have suffered some immense grievance outside.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have rushed into his arms the moment she saw him, clinging to him without a word.

Fang Qingyu raised his hand, his large, well-defined fingers resting gently on her smooth, long hair, stroking it softly.

He comforted her and asked, “Did Little Ying get bullied outside? Tell your brother, and I’ll take care of them for you, okay?”

His sister wasn’t someone just anyone could bully. Anyone who dared to mess with her would have to carefully weigh their own strength first.

“Brother, I missed you,” Fang Qingying murmured, shaking her head.

These were the words she spoke on behalf of the original host.

Fang Qingying envied the original host for having such a family, it was something she had never experienced herself.

“I missed Little Ying too,” Fang Qingyu replied, unable to suppress a smile. He even deliberately shot a challenging glance at the old man watching nearby.

Ever since he was born, his father had despised how clingy he was with their mother, constantly scheming against his son in ever-new ways.

But now, his sister was hugging him, not their father. If the timing weren’t so inappropriate, Fang Qingyu might have even smugly gloated at his dad.

Fang Dad, meanwhile, couldn’t help feeling a little unbalanced as he thought about how his sweet, adorable daughter hadn’t hugged him once since coming home.

Then, noticing his son’s provocation, he coughed a few times for show and pulled Fang Qingying away, saying, “Ahem, weren’t we going to eat? Why are we blocking the doorway?”

Before Fang Qingyu could react, Fang Dad shrewdly tugged Fang Qingying past him and headed downstairs.

Hmph, hmph, hmph, this was his daughter!

That damn son of his better not try to steal his wife or daughter. If he wanted one, he could go find his own instead of competing with him.

“Brother, let’s eat, okay?” Fang Qingying called out after taking a few steps, pausing to look back at Fang Qingyu, who was still standing by the study door.

For a moment, the two men of the Fang family revealed completely different expressions.
