Chapter 229 How can someone be so naive?
The group of guests who went out for a stroll were turned back because Wu Xianxian was injured.
"S~"
Despite the pain, Wu Xianxian couldn't help but hiss as the medicine touched her hands.
"Luckily, it was just a minor cut, a little bit of skin. It'll be fine after applying some medicine. Just avoid getting it wet for the next few days."
"Okay, thank you doctor."
"What happened? How did you get injured all of a sudden?" As the director, Berlin rushed over to inquire about the situation as soon as a guest was injured.
"It's alright, Sister Shuyue didn't do it on purpose."
Wu Xianxian spoke up for Hua Shuyue.
"Where is Shu Yue?" Berlin asked Hua Shu Yue's assistant, who stepped forward apologetically to explain.
"Sister Shuyue is in the room. She also feels very sorry. I'm so sorry."
Hua Shuyue's assistant bowed to Wu Xianxian.
Wu Xianxian quickly helped her up, "It's alright, it's just a minor injury. Go and keep Sister Shuyue company, she must be feeling very bad right now."
"thanks, thanks."
The assistant leaves.
Wu Xianxian smiled at Berlin and tentatively asked, "I'm fine, Director. It's just that there seemed to be some staff filming us just now. Could I ask if I could film that part?"
"Oh, you're too kind. Okay, I'll know what to do."
Berlin also left the room.
He Manman looked at Wu Xianxian's bandaged hand. She felt sorry for her, "She treated you like that, and you're still thinking about her?"
Wu Xianxian smiled and said, "Sister Shuyue and I are alumni and have known each other for a long time. I know her well, she didn't do it on purpose."
"By the way, everyone go ahead and get busy, I can manage on my own here."
He Manman: "Huh? Don't you need us to keep you company for a while?"
"Haha, no need, I have an assistant."
"Ok."
The others offered a few brief words of concern and then left.
As soon as everyone left, Wu Xianxian's face darkened.
Her assistant stared at her dark face, trembling and not daring to speak.
There were no cameras in the room, and the assistant clenched his fists, afraid of attracting Wu Xianxian's attention.
"What are you still standing there for? Come and change my dressing!"
The assistant paused, then said, "Oh, but wasn't this medicine just..."
"How can this be the same? You just smeared some unknown herb on my hands. Clean it off and change the dressing!"
"Okay, okay." The assistant quickly got to work and changed Wu Xianxian's dressing.
Wu Xianxian, in a languid posture, untied the phone she had received due to her injury, which she could use for a while.
I found the number and dialed it.
The phone rang twice before being answered, and a gentle male voice came through.
"Hey, Xianxian."
"Waaah, Brother Han."
Hearing Wu Xianxian crying, Luo Han stopped what he was doing. "What's wrong, Xianxian? Are you unhappy at work?"
"No, I just miss you a little."
I miss you too, Xianxian.
The assistant, who was changing the dressing, trembled as he heard Wu Xianxian's coquettish whining.
"Ah!" Wu Xianxian abruptly pulled her hand back, glaring fiercely at her assistant.
The assistant stopped what she was doing and quickly blew air into Wu Xianxian's wound, almost in tears.
"What's wrong, Xianxian?" Luo Han asked anxiously when he heard Wu Xianxian's scream on the other end of the phone.
"I...I'm fine."
Wu Xianxian said she was fine, but she silently turned on the speakerphone and gestured to her assistant with her eyes. The assistant understood and spoke casually.
"It's nothing, Sister Xianxian, your hands are all scraped and starting to swell up now. She treated you like this, and you're still covering for her."
After the assistant finished speaking, she looked at Wu Xianxian. Wu Xianxian, satisfied, turned off the speakerphone and put her mouth to the phone's microphone, saying, "Don't say that, shh~"
"What happened? What happened? Xianxian, how did you get injured? Is it serious? Did you apply the special ointment I made for you?"
Luo Han's heart was pounding on the phone, her voice filled with nervousness.
"Brother Han, I'm fine. My assistant was just talking nonsense. It's okay. Besides, you brought me some special ointment, right? Even if I'm injured, with the ointment you gave me, the wound will stop hurting right away, hehe."
"By the way, Brother Han, I still have filming to do, so I'll talk to you later."
Hearing the girl's excited tone, Luo Han's heart softened. "Okay, take care of yourself and don't get hurt, okay?"
"Okay~"
After hanging up the phone, Wu Xianxian looked at her hand, which had been re-bandaged, and pondered for a moment.
A slight smile curved at the corners of her mouth.
He glanced disdainfully at his nervous assistant beside him. "You did a good job this time. You know what to say and what not to say, right?"
"I know Sister Xianxian."
The assistant kept hunched over, bowing repeatedly in a fawning manner while speaking to Wu Xianxian.
"Okay, let's go."
-
Outside the room, after He Manman left, her brows remained furrowed with worry.
"What are you doing? Your face is all scrunched up, like you just lost two hundred dollars." Lin Zhi asked while eating potato chips.
“I…” He Manman was unsure whether she should express her true feelings. “I’m just a little conflicted.”
"Struggling with something? Tell me about it."
He Manman leaned close to Lin Zhihao's ear and said, "I think Hua Shuyue has a bit of a personality problem. She always gets angry at people for no reason."
"?"
Lin Zhihao put down her potato chips. "She got angry at you?"
He Manman shook her head, "No, not at all."
Lin Zhihao started eating potato chips again, "That's fine then."
"But," He Manman bit her lip, "I feel like she's always bullying Xianxian. We're both girls, and I've seen a lot of material about the two of them online. Ever since they graduated, Hua Shuyue has been bullying Xianxian."
The story that impressed me most was about college, when Hua Shuyue stole Xianxian's dance role. It was outrageous! They were both candidates, and she actually drugged Xianxian, preventing her from going to the audition. Isn't that exactly what that guy surnamed Long tried to do to Xingchen? Sister Lin, you should understand how I feel, right?
Lin Zhihao thought for a moment, "But we can't have a bad opinion of someone because of what others say. Besides, she's been pretty good to us, hasn't she?"
That's true, but...
He Manman felt heartbroken whenever she thought of Xianxian's face. She was clearly being wronged, yet she still spoke up for the people who bullied her. How could someone be so naive?
"Okay." Lin Zhihao put her arm around He Manman's shoulder. "Don't think about this anymore. Let's go home, have some fruit, and rest."
"Oh~"
