Xu Zhengxuan was hurt.
Yan Su said with a gentle voice, âHow about this... Iâll cook for him when Iâm at home. We can also eat in the canteen at our school sometimes.â
âI donât really like your food, but since youâve said so, I think Iâll accept your kindness. After all, Iâm injured because of you,â said Mo Liuxi in a bland tone.
âYou are so shameless,â Li Ming whispered silently.
Mo Jin twisted his ear and said, âWhat are you talking about? Donât act like a big boss only because you saved her.â
âStop. Iâm gonna get stitches,â said Mo Liuxi.
Yan Su understood that Mo Liuxi had said that deliberately so his family wouldnât overthink things.
âAunty Mo, itâs okay,â she said hurriedly. âHeâs always like that. Iâve known it since long ago.â
...
Mo Liuxi got twelve stitches in his arm. After that, he still needed to take four bottles of intravenous drip for anti-inflammation. Nian Junting told Mo Jin, Luosang, and the others to head back while he himself stayed in the hospital with Mo Liuxi.
Yan Su didnât know what to do. She didnât have the heart to leave. Staying there seemed to be a little inappropriate too.
While she was hesitating, she received a call from Xiang Wan. âAre you in the hospital with Mo Liuxi now?â
âYeah.â
âLeave now. The production team has published what happened tonight on Weibo and apologized. They terminated their partnership with Mr. Jia. Heâs no longer a producer on the film. He Jian was kicked out of the team because he helped Mr. Jia,â Xiang Wan said. âThey didnât mention your name, but people have mostly guessed it correctly since youâre the newest artist on the whole crew, and because youâre young and pretty. Many media reporters have contacted me. Iâm having an emergency meeting with my team.â
Yan Su was stunned. She hadnât expected things to end like that.
No wonder Li Ming had left to take phone calls earlier.
âBe ready. I think the press will try everything to interview you,â Xiang Wan reminded her. âMind your language. You canât go against the production team. I think theyâre trying to make things right. They still need the film to be done.â
âBut Director Li has quit the job.â Yan Su was a little angry, but also found it hilarious.
âHe will go back if he still wants to direct other films in the future,â said Xiang Wan firmly. âBecause the production team has published the whole story ahead of the others, and kicked both Mr. Jia and He Jian as the supervisor out of the team. They have shown Director Li enough respect and have punished the bad guys for you and Mo Liuxi. If he refused to return to the crew but insisted on bringing this to court, he might not win. If he did win and made those producers suffer a heavy loss, no other investors would dare to invest in his films again. Heâs a smart man.â
âCheck their Weibo posts. They complimented Mo Liuxi and said that he saved you bravely. A lot of people are praising him online now.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yan Su sighed. She figured that Mr. Fei was the one whoâd done all that.
She was impressed. When the conflict happened, heâd been sitting aside and watching.
Not long after she ended the call, Li Ming came back and told Mo Liuxi the news.
After hearing the whole story, Nian Junting frowned and said, âI think you should go back. Even though Mr. Fei is not a good person, he has thrown you a ladder and left you no choice but to climb.â
Director Li sighed. âThatâs what Iâm thinking. I have no choice. Liuxi, you... They said that you can still be in the crew if you want to. But if you donât want to do that, they wonât make you.â
âIâll do it,â Mo Liuxi said with a faint smile.
How was he supposed to keep torturing Shi Xiang without going back to the crew?
