Chapter 1195: Begin Your Performance（3）

In the living room, the mother and daughter were still chatting when the doorbell rang.

“It should be Eric. I’ll go open the door.” Huang Ying stood up and went to open the door for Eric.

Xu Cheng sat on the sofa. Just thinking about confronting Eric made her anxious.

In her heart, she still liked Eric. However, she became afraid every time she thought of the way he acted last time.

Just as she was at a loss as to what to do, Eric walked in, wearing an ironed suit. When he saw Xu Cheng sitting on the sofa picking at her fingernails, the man’s eyes became heavy. However, he immediately forced himself to warm up.

“What’s wrong”

Eric’s voice was warm and not fierce like it was the other day. Xu Cheng lifted her head and looked at him, upset.

Eric controlled the dislike he felt towards Xu Cheng and sat next to her, placing his hand around her shoulders. “Are you still angry at me about the incident last time?”

Xu Cheng pouted and did not say anything.

Eric controlled his temper and gently coaxed Xu Cheng, “Stop being angry. Last time, I was angered by your performance.”

When she heard Eric’s words, Xu Cheng immediately glared at him.

Eric immediately explained, “We’re already at this step. We are about to succeed very soon. Therefore, we can’t afford any slip-ups right now. That day, your words clearly alarmed Lina. If I hadn’t stopped you, you might have continued saying the wrong things. Even if you are not thinking about yourself, you should still think about Miss Huang and think about our future!” Eric held Xu Cheng’s hand and lightly kissed it. “Isn’t the reason why I am helping you pretend to be Lina’s daughter to help Miss Huang?Isn’t it because of you that I am helping Miss Huang?At the end of the day, everything I do is for you. Your performance last time almost made all of my efforts go to waste. I acted like that towards you because I was furious. Stop being angry at me.”

Xu Cheng’s anger had already dissipated when she heard Eric tenderly explaining his actions to her. However, she still had the pride of a woman. “Even if you were angry, you didn’t need to be so mean towards me. You even told me to bear the consequences myself and words like that. You scared me to death.”

Eric was disgusted as he looked at Xu Cheng’s uncute face and the way she was feigning haughtiness.

However, today was the final push. He needed to make Xu Cheng feel better.

“Baby, I’m sorry. I won’t act like that again in the future. I’ll obey everything you say.”

When she heard this, a smile finally appeared on Xu Cheng’s face. “That’s better. Actually, I also reflected on my actions and I was definitely being a little irritable that day. Anyways, I promise that I will work hard in being Lina’s daughter. Not for anything else, but for our future.”

Eric curled his lips, satisfied. His eyes were murky as his hand tightened around Xu Cheng’s. “Good girl.”

After making Xu Cheng feel better, Eric brought her to the hotel to pick up Lina.

When the party arrived at the DNA Testing Center, Lina and Xu Cheng’s reports were already out.

“Chairwoman, wait here with Miss Xu for a while. I will go and retrieve the report.” Perhaps even Eric himself didn’t notice that when he spoke, his tone carried a hint of impatience.

“Okay, you can go.” Lina gracefully sat in the chair.

Eric looked at Xu Cheng and then he quickly went to retrieve the report.

Xu Cheng anxiously looked at Lina, who had on a strict expression. “I’m heading to the restroom. I’ll be back soon.”

After she finished speaking, Xu Cheng headed to the nearby restroom.

While she was waiting, Lina took out her phone and opened a picture. It was a picture of Tiny Rice Ball. She had asked Ling Tianya for it. She liked that child from the bottom of her heart.

“Miss Li.” Suddenly, a man wearing a large white lab coat walked over and stood in front of Lina.

Lina lifted her head and looked at that man, confused. She did not know him.

“Hello, I am one of the employees who is in charge of your DNA test.”
