Xin Xuanlai met the gazes of the two, unsure if he should step into the hospital room.
What should he do? He suddenly realized that his timing was rather inconvenient.
Help, can time rewind? His vacation, his island, all seemed to wave goodbye at this moment.
If he could turn back time to three minutes ago, he would be willing to pay the price of Master Wen not being able to bed his wife for an entire year.
"Master Wen, Madam." Xin Xuanlai said to the two in the hospital room with a fawning smile, "The hospital heard they needed to add a bed in the ward and immediately sent people over to install it. I couldn't stop them."
The workers following closely behind: "..."
Actually, they quite wanted to expose the fawning person at the door who was shifting the blame onto them.
Fang Miaomiao awkwardly retracted her gaze, no longer speaking.
Damn it, they hadn't done anything, yet she felt like they had been caught doing something wrong.
Wen Zhiyan said indifferently, "Come in."
Xin Xuanlai breathed a sigh of relief as if he had received a pardon and motioned for the workers to enter immediately.
The workers were quick to act.
Before long, the ward fell silent again.
"Xin Xuanlai."
"Master Wen." Xin Xuanlai stood at attention reflexively. "I'm here."
"Go and investigate the relationship between Fang Yan Huan, Shen Jia Ni, and Madam's agent. The three of them." Wen Zhiyan assigned the task. "Focus on what happened to Shen Jia Ni after she was kicked out by Chen Cai."
Xin Xuanlai's expression turned serious. "Yes, Master Wen."
As he accepted the task and was about to leave, his phone rang.
It was Cui Mantong.
Xin Xuanlai's right eyelid twitched, and his own phone also started vibrating.
He took it out and looked at the contact.
It was from the publicity department.
Wen Zhiyan gave him a look.
Xin Xuanlai nodded and went out.
Fang Miaomiao also answered her phone.
"Hello, Mantong, what's up?"
"Miaomiao, something big has happened. Where are you now?"
"I'm in the hospital."
"Hospital?" Cui Mantong immediately asked nervously, "What happened? Why are you in the hospital again?"
Fang Miaomiao chuckled awkwardly. "Well, it's hard to explain in a moment. I'll tell you slowly later. Mantong, you first, tell me about your situation."
"What about my situation? It's your situation too." Cui Mantong said indignantly, "Do you know that that bitch Shen Jia Ni posted a video? In the video, she's bruised and battered, and she's implying that everything she has now is caused by you and your husband."
"She's saying that you're unhappy about being attacked by haters on the show and that you've pushed all of this onto her. You've also colluded with your husband to pressure her husband, Chen Cai, forcing Chen Cai to abuse her, and even making Chen Cai divorce her."
"Now, the entire internet is flooded with your negative news. There are even bloggers claiming that you've been to the hospital for assault in the past."
After hearing all this, Fang Miaomiao suddenly didn't know what to say.
Cui Mantong on the other end of the phone, after not hearing Fang Miaomiao speak for a while, thought Fang Miaomiao was sad. She was both angry and worried. "Miaomiao, don't be afraid. None of us believe you're that kind of person. Senior Zhou and Chen Huan are comforting you in the group chat. We all believe you, really. Don't be sad."
"I'm not sad." Fang Miaomiao felt a warmth in her heart. "Hmm... some of the things Shen Jia Ni said are not entirely false."
For example, Chen Cai divorcing Shen Jia Ni because of her relationship with Wen Zhiyan, Shen Jia Ni being abused, or even herself going to the police station for fighting.
However, Wen Zhiyan said that Shen Jia Ni was under their control. So, who posted that accusatory video? Could it be that Shen Jia Ni had someone behind her?
But whether it was herself or the original owner, they didn't seem to have offended anyone to death. If so, why would the person behind all this go to such lengths to target her?
Fang Miaomiao had never felt her brain wasn't enough for the task before.
She briefly explained to Cui Mantong before hanging up.
"What's wrong?"
Fang Miaomiao summarized the key points of what Cui Mantong had said to Wen Zhiyan and opened her Weibo.
After looking around.
Very good. Most of the negative news was about being a diva, bullying juniors and elders, and so on. The newer and more explosive ones were about her hitting someone at an amusement park and being taken to the police station, and about using her rich husband to pressure Shen Jia Ni's husband into divorcing Shen Jia Ni.
Some even claimed that she had taken a liking to Shen Jia Ni's husband, so she used her rich husband's hand to drive Shen Jia Ni away, and then she moved in.
The vivid descriptions, tsk, if she hadn't been the protagonist of this story, she almost would have believed it herself.
Just then, Xin Xuanlai rushed in. "Master, something's happened."
Wen Zhiyan raised his hand. "I know."
"The company's publicity department is already sending people to suppress the trending searches, but this matter is escalating too quickly."
Although they had intervened in time to suppress the trending searches, everything seemed to be premeditated. A large number of bloggers were reposting and commenting, even commenting without caring about the truth of the matter, stirring up trouble. Or perhaps they didn't care about the truth of the matter, only wanting to gain attention and increase their own popularity.
Fang Miaomiao frowned slightly. If this matter wasn't resolved, it would be unfair to the "Traveling Together" program.
Thinking of the concern and comfort from the staff in the group chat, and thinking of the insults from Shen Jia Ni's fans flooding their official website.
Alas, it was a headache.
"Let's do a live broadcast to explain tonight." Fang Miaomiao thought, "See if we can contact the police station and ask them to help issue a certificate."
As for the matter with Chen Cai...
What to do?
She knew Shen Jia Ni was being abused from a God's-eye view, and she had seen it with her own eyes, but that was just what she had seen. Where was the evidence?
Headache.
She just wanted to live a peaceful and happy salted fish life, so why were troubles always finding her?
"We can." Wen Zhiyan nodded in agreement. "But you can't move around now. I'll find the evidence, and I'll ask the police for help. You focus on recovering from your injuries."
Actually, with the group's capabilities, it wasn't impossible to forcefully suppress this wave of negative news, but in the long run, it wouldn't do any good for his Miaomiao.
During this period, he had also learned about the entertainment industry and fan circles because of Miaomiao. In his opinion, some fans were like lunatics, especially Shen Jia Ni's fans. They were like they had been bewitched. Anyone who bullied Shen Jia Ni, they would track them down and curse the protagonist relentlessly.
He couldn't understand it.
Fang Miaomiao didn't try to be strong about this matter either. After all, she really had nothing. With someone helping her, and it being the person she liked helping her, why would she refuse?
She was now wishing that her connection with Wen Zhiyan would deepen even further.
