Chapter 175: I Am The Father Of Your Child
Wendy was clueless as to how to answer such a question.She preferred her single status and had
never thought of choosing a boyfriend.
How could she possibly have any standards? Wendy felt ill at ease.
Suddenly, Ryan''s face filled the screen of her mind.She shuddered inwardly.She shook her head and
answered the question.
Fortunately this was one of the questions that Roger had prepped her for in advance so she was ready
with her answer.
She parroted the answer without hesitation.

"My standards are very simple.I want a boyfriend who should be of the same age as me, on the same
wavelength as me, understand me and be considerate towards me."
Her answer was far too conventional and boring.
Octavia grimaced.
If the interviewbored on like this, the program would go downhill.
Her eyes shed and with a smile, she tried to spice up the chat.
"Why do I feel that you are talking about Jeffrey? He is about the same age as you.Besides, he is also
an actor, so you must have a lot inmon to talk about.Moreover, he is famous for his unruly
character.But word has it that he was very serious when he was filming the ''Story of Concubine
Ivanka''.He spent every spare moment rehearsing with you."
Octavia paused strategically and then she joked with a chuckle, "Did you fall in love with him because
of the drama?"
Following Octavia''s suggestive words, the staff disyed a photo on the big screen behind her.
It was a photo taken when Wendy and Jeffrey were shooting.
The chemistry between the two could be clearly seen in the photo.
Wendy, who yed Faye, adorned a bright red suit; while Jeffrey, who yed Weston, was draped in a
blue robe.
They were facing each other, standing under the willow tree alongside the river.
In the picture, Faye was handing the pouch to Weston.
He was smiling at a blushing Faye.
It was indeed a very beautiful, heartwarming picture.
The corners of Wendy''s mouth twitched.
She knew that it would result in a misunderstanding if she did not clear the air immediately.
She quickly responded, “Jeffrey has always been a very dedicated artist.Although he only featured in a
supporting role this time, he still acted with such professionalism.I think that his acting is exemry and
I can definitely take a leaf out of his book.He has taught a neer like me many valuable tricks of
the trade.As for the supposed love of the drama, blossoming off screen, I can safely say that, that is a I
rumor.Just a misunderstanding created by mischief makers.Jeffery respects me as I do him.He has
been an invaluable guide on my journey into acting and I regard him as a great instructor."
Five minutes earlier, in the lounge of the TV station, Wendy''s live broadcast was disyed on the TV.
On the sofa, Luke lounged with his legs crossed.
With the remote control in his hand, he was busy eating snacks whilstining to Ryan.
"What a good brother I am to you.Instead of gallivanting with girls after work, I came to the TV station
with you.In helping you pursue Wendy, I have lost so much of weight.You better be nice to me in the
future."
Ryan nced at his watch impatiently.
It was only eight o''clock! There was still an hour before Wendy''s live broadcast ended.
Time was crawling.
Luke spat out the chicken bone from his mouth and shouted crossly, "Ryan, I fail to understand you.If
you wanted to see Wendy, then just go.What are you afraid of? Besides, if you don''t tell her what
you''ve done for her, how will she know? How will she be touched? How can she promise to be with you
if she hasn''t been moved by your actions?"
While speaking, Luke walked up to Ryan and tried to encourage him.
"There''s just one day left before your seven day deadline with Wendy ends.It won''t matter if you break
the agreement just one day before, will it? In my expert opinion, I think that you should meet and
surprise Wendy as soon as her program finishes.Who knows how excited she will be and may even
agree to be your steady girlfriend."
"Be quiet!"
Feeling hurt, Luke closed his mouth and switched to the entertainment channel with the remote control.
The entertainment channel focused nonstop on Eris''vish birthday bash and Brian''s surprise proposal.
Luke was irritated.
"Damn! Today''s news is all about that worthless woman.Were Eris and Wendy really half -sisters? Why
is there such a major difference in their IQ? Jaylen was gravely ill yet Brian still proposed to her at such
an inopportune time.Didn''t she suspect something amiss in his proposal?"
"Change the TV channels!" Ryan said with a frown.
"Okay!"
Luke changed channels again.
It was 7:30 p.m. sharp, and Wendy''s live broadcast was disyed on the TV.
Luke quickly sat straight and shouted, "Ryan! Look! It''s Wendy!"
‘''Heck! We have been at the TV station for such a long time, but I forgot to ask which channel Wendy''s
live broadcast will be.How silly of me.But luckily I found it and it seems the show has just begun!’'' Luke
thought to himself.
They watched for a while, and now on TV, Octavia interrogated Wendy, "What''s your standard for
choosing a boyfriend?"
Upon hearing that, Ryan pricked up his ears.
Then he heard Wendy say softly, "My standards are very simple.I want a boyfriend who should be the
same age as me, on the same wavelength as me, understand me and be considerate towards me."
‘''The same age? Ryan is seven years older than Wendy.He does not fit her criteria.Obviously, they are
not the same age.On the same wavelength as her? Ryan is a workaholic.He doesn''t converse much
and always portrays a cold demeanor.While Wendy was enthusiastic, vibrant and dynamic.Apparently,
the two of them were not on the same wavelength.As for understanding and consideration? Ryan did
care about Wendy, but all in secret! Did that count?'' Taking note of these inconsistencies, Luke took a
deep breath before speaking.
Then he nced at Ryan and whispered, "Ryan, I don''t think she is talking about you.You don''t fit the
bill."
Ryan''s face became ashen.
"Why do I feel that you are talking about Jeffrey? He is about the same age as you.Besides, he is also
an actor, so you must have a lot inmon to talk about.Moreover, Jeffrey is famous for his unruly
character.But word has it that he was very serious when he was filming the ''Story of Concubine
Ivanka''.He spent every spare moment rehearsing with you.Did you fall in love with him because of the
drama?"
''Heck! Now I do feel that Wendy was talking about Jeffrey!"
Thinking of this, Luke got nervous.
As if the temperature in the room had dropped, Luke huddled himself up in the corner.
He wished that the ground would open up and swallow him.
He said in a soft voice, "Ryan, how about changing the TV channels?"
"How dare you even suggest that?"
Of course, Luke didn''t dare touch the remote.He held his breath and listened attentively.
After hearing Wendy''s answer, Luke felt greatly relieved.
He breathed more easily.
Meanwhile, he slyly tried to catch a glimpse of Ryan''s face.
‘''Fortunately, his anger has melted" Luke wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
He was petrified a moment ago.
Luke then casually moved a small stool to sit beside the tea table and continued to enjoy his snacks.
Time passed much faster.
There were just five minutes of the live broadcast left.
It went on smoothly.
As it was about to end, Octavia began to present her concluding remarks.
However, at that very moment, an audience member suddenly rushed forward.
It was a male, approximately twenty-six years old.He rushed straight to Wendy!
‘''This is a live broadcast, for crying out loud!” Octavia had seen many crazy fans on her show, so she
immediately called the security, "Stop him!"
There were security guards at the scene all the time to prevent any unforeseen mishaps.
Anticipating disruption, they immediately stepped forward and restrained the man.
He waved his hand and shouted, "Wendy, so it''s really you.It took me a long time to make sure.Do you
remember me, Wendy?"
Just as Octavia was about to ask the security to drag the man out, he suddenly blurted something that
shocked everyone present.
"I''m the father of your child!"
