1193 How About Another Day?
“Me? I would want to!” Yu Xiaofeng’s chest tightened when he heard that. He walked up to w.a.n.g Mingxiao and scolded, “Look at you. I’m your uncle. How can I hurt you?”
“Although Uncle isn’t a professional manager, I’ve 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 pa.s.ses, the audience won’t remember who you are!”
“Don’t you think so? Xia Qinghuan is obviously going to become famous overnight. You have the right time, place, and people now. Aren’t you going to seize the opportunity to improve your relations.h.i.+p with her? After this pa.s.ses, where are you going to find the next one?
“You’re counting on Jian Yiyi? She’s the third female lead. No matter how famous she is, can she be more famous than Xia Qinghuan? Can’t you tell which watermelon is sweeter?”
!!w.a.n.g Mingxiao sat on the bed, but he ignored Yu Xiaofeng’s 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, “Uncle will make soup for you tomorrow. Take it to the hospital to see Xia Qinghuan.”
w.a.n.g Mingxiao: “…”
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, wouldn’t everyone know his intentions?
He was not going!
“Uncle, guess who I saw today!” An idea flashed across w.a.n.g Mingxiao’s mind.
When Yu Xiaofeng heard this, he turned around and looked at him. He frowned and asked, “Who is it?”
“You should still remember the boss of Rose Entertainment, right? It’s the girl who b.u.mped into me with coffee when we went to discuss the contract,” w.a.n.g 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 couldn’t help but sit up in shock. “You saw her? Where did you see her?”
“The production team!” w.a.n.g Mingxiao said softly, “Have you forgotten that Rose Entertainment invested in this movie?! As the boss, isn’t it normal for her to appear in the production team?”
Without waiting for Yu Xiaofeng to speak, w.a.n.g Mingxiao continued, “Moreover, she seems to be here to visit Xia Qinghuan. If you let me go to the hospital tomorrow, I might b.u.mp into her!”
“So what if we b.u.mped into each other?” Yu Xiaofeng didn’t react and subconsciously asked.
“We offended her before!” w.a.n.g Mingxiao looked at Yu Xiaofeng. “This is a project they invested in. If they know that I’m also on the production team, what if they hold a grudge and change me out?”
“She wouldn’t dare. We have a contract. That’s a breach of contract!” Yu Xiaofeng widened his eyes, but he felt a little guilty.
w.a.n.g Mingxiao snorted. “Why wouldn’t she dare? Didn’t they reject the contract we discussed back then with just a word? Anyway, if you want me to go without considering the consequences, I’ll go…”
When Yu Xiaofeng heard this, he blurted, “Then… why don’t we do it another day?!”
He was usually fierce when he saw people, but he was also a coward when something happened. This was Yu Xiaofeng’s personality that he could not change.
Seeing that this move had worked, w.a.n.g 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.
“How is it? Does it still hurt?” Jian Ai looked at Xia Qinghuan and asked.
When Qinghuan heard this, she smiled and said, “It’s okay. It doesn’t hurt too much!”
“How can it not hurt after falling from such an elevated place?” Yan Tian asked with a pained expression.
Xia Qinghuan glared at him. “How is that high? I accidentally fell down. Otherwise, I could have jumped down from above!”
Yan Tian: “…”
Seeing that Xia Qinghuan was still in the mood to argue, Jian Ai knew she was fine. She couldn’t help but smile and say, “It’s good that you’re fine. You scared us yesterday!”
Guan Tao nodded. “We were just talking when you fell. You scared us to death!”
“Alright, alright! Don’t worry. I’m fine!” Xia Qinghuan couldn’t stand this the most. She blurted, “Do what you have to do. No one has to think about me. The doctor said that I’ll be fine after recuperating for a few days!”
Yan Tian: “I want to take a photo…”
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 couldn’t 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 Zhou’s apartment, as soon as she entered, Jian Ai realized that Si Yue, Xiao Zhen, and Zhi Tong were all here. She couldn’t help but be slightly surprised. “Oh, it’s so lively!”
Chi Lian stood by the window with a gla.s.s of red wine. When she heard this, she said, “Bai Zhou has something important to announce, so he called everyone over for a meal.”
Jian Ai nodded in understanding and walked to the sofa to sit down. Then, her gaze landed on Zhi Tong and she smiled. “Zhi Tong, are you used to living with Xiao Zhen?”
After they finished handling Bai Zhou’s 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. “Brother Xiao Zhen takes good care of me!”
Xiao Zhen was sitting at the side. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but say, “As long as I don’t see spirits again…”
Jian Ai: “…”
Spirits?
Zhi Tong lowered his head gently, as if he was embarra.s.sed.
Xiao Zhen was a man of few words, so he didn’t explain further.
Jian Ai blinked inexplicably. “Zhi Tong’s spirits?”
“I’m 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,” Zhi Tong whispered.
Jian Ai was stunned. Let a spirit help him carry things?
“Aren’t spirits illusory?” 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, “It’s 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!”
