1193 How About Another Day?
âMe? I would want to!â Yu Xiaofengâs chest tightened when he heard that. He walked up to Wang Mingxiao and scolded, âLook at you. Iâm your uncle. How can I hurt you?â
âAlthough Uncle isnât a professional manager, Iâve done my homework for you! In the entertainment circle, what we want is exposure and popularity. How can we let you have exposure and popularity? Of course, there has to be news and rumors! This has to be hyped up. Otherwise, as time passes, the audience wonât remember who you are!â
âDonât you think so? Xia Qinghuan is obviously going to become famous overnight. You have the right time, place, and people now. Arenât you going to seize the opportunity to improve your relationship with her? After this passes, where are you going to find the next one?
âYouâre counting on Jian Yiyi? Sheâs the third female lead. No matter how famous she is, can she be more famous than Xia Qinghuan? Canât you tell which watermelon is sweeter?â
Wang Mingxiao sat on the bed, but he ignored Yu Xiaofengâs words. He could hear the calluses in his words.
Fortunately, he had strong willpower. No matter what Yu Xiaofeng said, he told himself this was called having evil intentions. He would not compromise.
Moreover, he liked Jian Yiyi and only Jian Yiyi. He tried his best to keep a distance from the other actresses in the production team because he wanted Jian Yiyi to see his loyalty.
Yu Xiaofeng chattered for a long time. In the end, he was so tired that he fell onto the bed, panting. He slowly said, âUncle will make soup for you tomorrow. Take it to the hospital to see Xia Qinghuan.â
Wang Mingxiao: ââŠâ
He was not familiar with Xia Qinghuan to the extent that he could go to the hospital alone to visit her, alright?
If he went, wouldnât everyone know his intentions?
He was not going!
âUncle, guess who I saw today!â An idea flashed across Wang Mingxiaoâs mind.
When Yu Xiaofeng heard this, he turned around and looked at him. He frowned and asked, âWho is it?â
âYou should still remember the boss of Rose Entertainment, right? Itâs the girl who bumped into me with coffee when we went to discuss the contract,â Wang Mingxiao said.
Yu Xiaofeng was stunned. There was no need to think too much about it. How could he forget Jian Ai?!
When he came back to his senses, he couldnât help but sit up in shock. âYou saw her? Where did you see her?â
âThe production team!â Wang Mingxiao said softly, âHave you forgotten that Rose Entertainment invested in this movie?! As the boss, isnât it normal for her to appear in the production team?â
Without waiting for Yu Xiaofeng to speak, Wang Mingxiao continued, âMoreover, she seems to be here to visit Xia Qinghuan. If you let me go to the hospital tomorrow, I might bump into her!â
âSo what if we bumped into each other?â Yu Xiaofeng didnât react and subconsciously asked.
âWe offended her before!â Wang Mingxiao looked at Yu Xiaofeng. âThis is a project they invested in. If they know that Iâm also on the production team, what if they hold a grudge and change me out?â
âShe wouldnât dare. We have a contract. Thatâs a breach of contract!â Yu Xiaofeng widened his eyes, but he felt a little guilty.
Wang Mingxiao snorted. âWhy wouldnât she dare? Didnât they reject the contract we discussed back then with just a word? Anyway, if you want me to go without considering the consequences, Iâll goâŠâ
When Yu Xiaofeng heard this, he blurted, âThen⊠why donât we do it another day?!â
He was usually fierce when he saw people, but he was also a coward when something happened. This was Yu Xiaofengâs personality that he could not change.
Seeing that this move had worked, Wang Mingxiao knew when to stop and nodded gently.
The next morning, Jian Ai and the rest went straight to the hospital.
In the ward, Qinghuan had just finished her breakfast.
âHow is it? Does it still hurt?â Jian Ai looked at Xia Qinghuan and asked.
When Qinghuan heard this, she smiled and said, âItâs okay. It doesnât hurt too much!â
âHow can it not hurt after falling from such an elevated place?â Yan Tian asked with a pained expression.
Xia Qinghuan glared at him. âHow is that high? I accidentally fell down. Otherwise, I could have jumped down from above!â
Yan Tian: ââŠâ
Seeing that Xia Qinghuan was still in the mood to argue, Jian Ai knew she was fine. She couldnât help but smile and say, âItâs good that youâre fine. You scared us yesterday!â
Guan Tao nodded. âWe were just talking when you fell. You scared us to death!â
âAlright, alright! Donât worry. Iâm fine!â Xia Qinghuan couldnât stand this the most. She blurted, âDo what you have to do. No one has to think about me. The doctor said that Iâll be fine after recuperating for a few days!â
Yan Tian: âI want to take a photoâŠâ
Before Yan Tian could finish speaking, Xia Qinghuan glared at him.
Yan Tian shrunk his neck, looking like a bullied wife. Jian Ai and Guan Tao couldnât help but laugh.
They accompanied Qinghuan in the hospital until the afternoon before getting into the car to return to Baiyun City.
On the way, Jian Ai received a call from Bai Zhou. He wanted her to go to the apartment for dinner and tell her something. Jian Ai agreed.
When they returned to the city, the sky was completely dark. Jian Ai got out of the car in Haicheng District while Yan Tian sent Guan Tao back to Zhonglou District.
When she arrived at Bai Zhouâs apartment, as soon as she entered, Jian Ai realized that Si Yue, Xiao Zhen, and Zhi Tong were all here. She couldnât help but be slightly surprised. âOh, itâs so lively!â
Chi Lian stood by the window with a glass of red wine. When she heard this, she said, âBai Zhou has something important to announce, so he called everyone over for a meal.â
Jian Ai nodded in understanding and walked to the sofa to sit down. Then, her gaze landed on Zhi Tong and she smiled. âZhi Tong, are you used to living with Xiao Zhen?â
After they finished handling Bai Zhouâs matter, Jian Ai left Zhi Tong with Xiao Zhen for the time being.
Zhi Tong was still wearing his black robe. At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa. The loose fabric was like a tent. However, he never wore a hat in front of Jian Ai and the rest. Hearing this, he nodded. âBrother Xiao Zhen takes good care of me!â
Xiao Zhen was sitting at the side. When he heard this, he couldnât help but say, âAs long as I donât see spirits againâŠâ
Jian Ai: ââŠâ
Spirits?
Zhi Tong lowered his head gently, as if he was embarrassed.
Xiao Zhen was a man of few words, so he didnât explain further.
Jian Ai blinked inexplicably. âZhi Tongâs spirits?â
âIâm used to letting spirits help me carry things. One night, a spirit was pouring water in the living room when Brother Xiao Zhen saw it. It might have frightened him,â Zhi Tong whispered.
Jian Ai was stunned. Let a spirit help him carry things?
âArenât spirits illusory?â Jian Ai asked shamelessly!
She had always thought that spirits were illusory and could not come into contact with physical objects. How could it help Zhi Tong pour water and take things?
When Zhi Tong heard this, he explained, âItâs related to my ability. I can decide if a spirit has a physical body. This is a relatively high-level power of the evil spirit!â
