Chapter 62: The wooden beauty of Young Master Sheng

 Chapter 62: Can't Hide It Anymore

Jiang Chenchen was taken to the hospital. The wound on her forehead was not too severe; it was cleaned, medicated, and bandaged. There were scratches on her arm, and her twisted ankle was quite serious, swollen considerably. Fortunately, X-rays confirmed no fractures. Given the current situation, walking was difficult for her, and the subsequent program recording could not proceed. The production team had to temporarily stop work due to this sudden incident. Lu Su felt a deep sense of guilt. It was his fan's sudden madness that led to Jiang Chenchen getting injured while trying to save him. "I'm sorry, if it weren't for me..." He kept apologizing, sitting by her bedside with a face still in shock. Jiang Chenchen felt that this incident was influenced by the high heels affecting her performance; otherwise, it wouldn't have happened. She had never stumbled like this while kicking someone. Seeing him continuously apologizing, she said, "It's not your fault, it's that person's fault." The one who harmed her was the crazed fan, and Lu Su was also a victim. However, she didn't understand what the man meant by calling idols a failure. Was hatred enough to drive someone to stab others with a knife? Lu Su, as a male idol, knew when to cry and when to laugh. But this time, the person who took the knife for him, risking her life in such a dangerous situation, was now injured. She didn't complain when getting treated, and now, she didn't blame him at all! His eyes couldn't help but become a little moist. He tried hard to suppress his emotions, but his trembling hands betrayed him. Clutching the edge of the bed, his eyes turned red. "You saved my life today. Whatever you need in the future, I will do my best to help you." "Now? Can I ask for something now?" Jiang Chenchen inquired. Lu Su quickly replied, "Tell me, whatever you want to do, I promise!" "Water." Lu Su immediately went to fetch water. Jiang Chenchen drank the water and then put the cup down. "Okay." Her face remained calm, but Lu Su was stunned by her response. "Is that it? I mean..." Lu Su tried to say more. "Just like this," Jiang Chenchen said. Lu Su was touched by her magnanimity. He felt that repaying someone who saved his life with just a cup of water seemed too casual, something he wouldn't accept himself. However, he didn't say much; he silently made a big commitment in his heart, vowing to repay this great favor in the future. On the internet, a wave of hot searches erupted. Lu Su's fans were worried about the injury to their idol, but videos captured by onlookers showed a brave girl saving Lu Su. The attention shifted to Jiang Chenchen. Online discussions varied, starting with a crazy and psychotic guy to worrying about the idol's injury. Eventually, everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Chenchen. [Wow, come and see this goddess! The leg movement is so cool! Her face is so calm, not scared at all. Is she a fairy?] [Although this scene is beautiful, it's kind of like a hero saving a hero, really like a drama!] [Did you notice? It's the high heels that restricted the beauty's speed. When the crazy guy rushed forward, she almost tripped when stepping back!] [Digressing a bit, she looks so beautiful! Has she acted in any dramas?] [No, she's just an ordinary person. This time it's a reality show about dating between ordinary people and celebrities. The on-site security was not well managed, leading to this accident.] [In three minutes, I want to know everything about this fairy!] The online discussions were in full swing, and Jiang Chenchen lying in the hospital bed had no idea. Lu Su, as he needed to visit the police station, had his assistant stay with her. However, since her manager, Lu Fang, was present, he felt she could handle things and didn't need to be overly anxious. Lu Fang sat on the side, looking at Jiang Chenchen. A mixture of worry and satisfaction appeared on her face. "Although you're injured, I shouldn't say this, but you know, your discussion volume online is higher than that of Lu Su, the person involved!" Jiang Chenchen appeared indifferent as she listened. Lu Fang didn't expect her to remain so expressionless even at this time. Wasn't she scared at all back then? "Do you know that, although you were injured due to an accident, you have gained attention because of it? Once this episode airs, having these trending topics will make it easier for you if you want to step into the entertainment industry." Jiang Chenchen shook her head. "I'm just doing this temporarily to earn money." At that moment, she seemed to have suddenly figured out what she wanted to do. Lu Fang knew that her thoughts were different from others, but still said, "Celebrities earn much more than ordinary people. If you want to make money, standing on the stage will make it much easier for you. Moreover, at your age, it's a golden period. If you miss it, you may not have such an opportunity again." Jiang Chenchen remained silent. Lu Fang didn't insist on the topic any longer. "You can't continue with this episode's recording. Take a few days to rest here. When your foot swelling subsides, come back for the next recording in early next month. By then, the program will likely have been broadcasted, and we can evaluate the effect before deciding what to do." "Rest here for a few days, and when the swelling in your foot goes down, you can return." Jiang Chenchen nodded, holding her phone. At this moment, she really wanted to call Sheng Mingsi. Even if she didn't say anything, just knowing he was there would make her feel much more at ease. Although it was not a big deal, she suddenly missed him. Lu Fang's phone rang, and she quickly went out to answer it. "President Gu..." On the other end, Gu Ming angrily questioned, "What happened? Someone got hurt, and the program's security measures are so poor?" Lu Fang hadn't expected President Gu to be so furious. She quickly explained, "No, President Gu, it was a sudden situation! Besides, Jiang Chenchen actively saved Lu Su..." "Anyway, regardless of the situation, make sure to take care of her! There should be no further injuries!" Otherwise, her brother would definitely hold her accountable! This incident had become widely known online, and there was no way to hide it! After attending a seminar, Sheng Mingsi returned to his company. When Wu Bi hesitated while conveying the news, he was already back at his desk, handling some business matters. Wu Bi couldn't figure out Sheng Mingsi's emotions. He kept his head down, looking at documents without saying anything. Did he not care? However, the chilling aura surrounding him couldn't deceive anyone. Finally, Sheng Mingsi lifted his head from the documents. His jet-black eyes became even colder, and his tone was low and devoid of fluctuations. "Go and bring her back." "Alright!" Wu Bi left the room. Sheng Mingsi put down the documents and took out his phone to watch the online videos. She had risked her life to save that man. Even her life was not spared. He clenched his fingers around the phone, the joints turning white. A nameless anger surged within him. Lowering his eyes, he threw the phone aside, retrieved a bottle of liquor from the cabinet, poured a glass, and downed it in one gulp.
