âDonât worry⦠This is nothing serious. There are often small accidents during filming.â Mo Li was quite flustered by Quan Yuâs concern. She didnât know what to say.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After taking a look at the time, Quan Yu put down the thermos. He reached out to touch Mo Li but he stopped himself. He looked deeply at Mo Li before he stood up and left.
Mo Li was baffled.?What is wrong with this man? Did he come back from the capital just to look at me??For some reason, Mo Liâs heart warmed at that thought.
Soon, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard in the corridor. Jiang Yaoâs voice followed, âLi Li! Are you alright?â Jiang Yao entered the room and sat down beside Mo Liâs bed.
âMom, Iâm fine. I left no scar on my face either.â Mo Li said softly. Seeing the crying Jiang Yao, Mo Li did not know what to say.
âGirl! You really know how to make us worry. We wanted to rush over when we saw the news, but your brother came home and told us about your condition. He told us to prepare some food for you first before we come.â Seeing how worried Jiang Yao was, Mo Li lowered her face in shame. Seeing this, Mo Liâs heart softened. âYou have to be more careful in the future, okay?â Jiang Yao touched Mo Liâs face, and she was still worried.
âMom, donât worry. Plus, it doesnât even hurt anymore.â Mo Li knew that Jiang Yao was really worried about her, so she consoled her.
âWhat are you talking about? You needed to have stitches! How can it not hurt? Thankfully, itâs nothing really serious, or youâll break my heart.â Jiang Yao nudged Mo Liâs forehead with her finger. Then, seeing how tired her daughter was, Jiang Yao pressed her lips and did not say anything else.
When Nie Li came back from her trip to buy some fruits and flowers, she saw Jiang Yao in Mo Liâs ward, and she felt better. Auntie Qiu had stewed clam soup for Mo Li, but Mo Li could only manage a few bites because she just had the porridge and soup from Quan Yu.
âMrs. Mo, you should go back to rest. I will stay to accompany Mo Li.â
âNo, no! Miss Nie, you must be tired already. Our Li Li has already posed so many troubles for you. You shouldnât need to stay. I will stay to look after her. You should go back to rest!â Jiang Yao didnât want to trouble outsiders. Plus, she was not comforted leaving her children in the care of another person. Jiang Yao heard about Nie Liâs background, so she didnât want to trouble her.
âMrs. Mo, youâre too kind. Just call me Nie Li. I am Mo Liâs manager so I should be working for her. Furthermore, if any reporter comes at midnight, you might not know how to handle them. Itâs better than I stay. Plus, Mo Zheng is still recovering, and you need to look after him too. Mo Liâs situation is not that serious. Iâm sure she wouldnât want to distract you away from Mo Zheng.â
Mo Li nodded. âMom, donât worry. You should go back to rest. 3rd Brother still needs you to look after him.â
Jiang Yao was eventually persuaded. She told Mo Li a few words, and then she left.
âNow, what should we do? What about the crews?â
âWhat can we do since this is an accident? Weâre already on a time crunch. You still need to shoot Like A Willow. Both Director Peng and Tang Ze are anxious. But you shouldnât worry about them. You need to focus on your recovery first.â Nie Li looked at Mo Li and said, âThis is an accident. It was the martial arts director who got the angle wrong.â
âOkay, donât worry, I will not pursue this further.â Mo Li didnât want to make a big deal out of this. Furthermore, she was embarrassed for having dragged down the progress of the shoot.
âSo they will film the other charactersâ scenes first?â Mo Li asked. For the Witch of Sun and Moon, even though she had a lot of scenes, she could film them later. As for Like A Willow, it had not started filming yet. There was still time.
âCorrect, so donât worry too much about them. We have time to slowly resolve these matters.â
Mo Li blinked and looked at Nie Li, âDid the doctor say when I can be discharged from the hospital?â
âAt least a week. And you have to have your brain scanned.â Nie Li knew Mo Li was a doctor, so she didnât hide or lie.
When Mo Li heard that, she shook her head. âI will leave the hospital tomorrow. The swelling on the forehead can be reduced by applying an ice compress. And then makeup can be used to cover it. I can shoot some individual scenes that donât require much action.â Mo Li wanted to shoot some high emotional scenes to make up to the crew.
âImpossible, and there is no negotiation.â
