“Grandpa, it’s raining outside, how can you go out alone?” Qin Shen focused on Qin Yunshan almost being hit by a car, frowning at the nurses and nurses in the ward. “How do you take care of him?”

The nurses lowered their head and apologized anxiously, “I’m sorry Mr. Qin, it’s because we didn’t take good care of-”

“It’s none of their business. I was in the ward and was so bored. I knew you were going here and wanted to go out and pick you up.” Qin Yunshan waved his hand. He and a few old friends went mountain hiking. He accidentally injured his waist and was admitted to this hospital.

“Grandpa, you can’t move around alone again next time.” Qin Shen sullenly urged the doctor on the side, “Check my grandpa for injuries.”

Jiang Yu came out of the building and went to the waiting hall in front. Xiao Fang hurried over and asked, “Where did you go? I didn’t see you when I got the number.”

Jiang Yu replied, “I went to the bathroom.”

“Here we are.” Their number was called outside the waiting room, and Xiao Fang was busy pulling him over. It was strange to see the black umbrella in his hand and she asked, “Why did you bring the umbrella back when you went to the bathroom?”

The doctor checked him again, and only said that Jiang Yu had a fever. After a little antipyretics, they let them go. Back in the car, Lin Cheng called to say that he had arrived at the airport, and Jiang Yu asked Xiao Fang to drive to the airport.

The hospital was not far from the airport and they will be there in half an hour. Jiang Yu asked Xiao Fang to wait in the car. He entered a coffee shop, and Lin Cheng did not bring an assistant. He wore a hat and a mask, waiting for him at the innermost table.

“Yu Er, this is the last few cigarettes I took away when I quietly took his lighter.” Seeing him coming, Lin Cheng quickly took out a box from his pocket and handed it to him. “You just have to hold it first, see if it works.”

Jiang Yu took the box and smiled, “I’m okay.”

“You are fine?” Lin Cheng raised his hat and looked at him up and down, and found that he was indeed not sick. “But you told me last night…”

Jiang Yu told him about the encounter with Qin Shen in the hospital.

“Fortunately, you have good luck.” Lin Cheng relaxed, and then worriedly said, “Yu Er, this luck alone will not be reliable. In the future, the eggs will be more agitated, and I still have to think of a way to get close to him often.”

Jiang Yu closed his lips and nodded.

Lin Cheng only took half a day off, said a few words and hurried back to the nearest flight. Jiang Yu got into the car and returned to the crew. When he arrived, it was already not raining. Xiao Fang wanted to put his black umbrella in the trunk but Jiang Yu shook his head, “I’m holding it myself.”

Hearing that Jiang Yu came back, the crew came to see him after finishing work. Qiao Mo lived next to him in the same yard. Listening to the uninterrupted opening and closing of the door next door, the assistant helped Qiao Mo lie on the bed, resented and said, “Looking at how he was on the set before, I thought he was seriously ill. It turned out that it was just a fever. He also pretended and snatched the fish soup made specially for you, and caused you a stomach problem.”

It rained early this morning, and the man who went to the rivers didn’t catch any fish. Qiao Mo wasn’t happy and didn’t eat much at noon last night and today. When he was filming in the afternoon, his stomach was a little uncomfortable.

Qiao Mo took the stomach medicine with the hot water passed by his assistant, stretched his hands and rubbed his stomach, and asked with a cold face, “What about Jiang Yu’s information?”

The assistant replied, “We checked it out, he has nothing to do, he has nothing to start with, just Lin Cheng’s cousin who came from a small fishing village. Yan Shu probably signed him because of Lin Cheng’s relationship. Lin Zhen let him act as the third male lead because Yan Shu took him to the reception and introduced him to Lin Zhen. It was probably at that time that President Qin knew him.”

Qiao Mo’s eyes were dim. He was still filming at the last film crew at that time, and he didn’t go to the reception.

The assistant curled his lips and scorned, “With how many small stars wanting to pounce on President Qin, the reception would be such a good chance to get close, no one will miss it. Look at his young age, on the surface he’s pure, but he has some means to allow President Qin to find him personally.”

“Qiao Ge, you said that Qin will never be with him…” The assistant lowered his voice. “Jiang Yu looked so beautiful, and his temperament was extraordinarily pure and well-behaved. Although President Qin has always been quite indifferent to the artists in the circle, he is also a normal mature man who is almost thirty years old. As long as the child seduces a little, maybe the two of them… Otherwise, why would President Qin find Jiang Yu in person?”

""

Qiao Mo’s face instantly turned green, he frowned and glanced at the assistant.

The assistant was surprised to say the wrong thing, and quickly spoke, “Qiao… Qiao Ge, I’m talking nonsense, President Qin is not such a person.”

He came to Qiao Mo after he was in Xingying Media. Although he knew not much, but Qiao Mo seemed to like Mr. Qin.

“He can’t touch the artists in the circle.” Qiao Mo coldly said, “He must have another reason for Jiang Yu.”

He was very certain. The assistant was puzzled, and said softly, “…Qiao Ge, we are also artists…”

Qiao Mo snorted, “I’m different from them.”

When the shooting took place the next day, the staff were all there, but Qiao Mo was nowhere to be seen. Lin Zhen was about to call to ask when Qiao Mo’s assistant hurried over and said, “I’m sorry, director, Qiao Mo suddenly suffered a stomach problem. He can’t shoot today. I’m going to take him to the hospital.”

Lin Zhen asked with concern, “Xiao Qiao has always been good, why did he suddenly suffer from a stomach problem?”

The assistant said, “It’s nothing. Qiao Mo didn’t eat much the night before yesterday and at noon yesterday. In fact, when he was filming yesterday afternoon, he was a little uncomfortable…”

Lin Zhen frowned, “Why doesn’t Xiao Qiao eat? Is the food unpalatable?”

The assistant hesitated and said, “No, it’s just that Qiao Mo needs to drink soup every day. The soup the day before yesterday and yesterday were not very tasty, so he didn’t eat much.”

After he finished speaking, he added, “Qiao Mo feels very sorry for everyone, so he let me specifically apologize before sending him to the hospital.”

 

Lin Zhen said, “This is not Xiao Qiao’s fault, please go back and send him to the hospital, don’t delay anymore.”

When the assistant left, Lin Zhen asked people to bring in some people and inquired, “Xiao Qiao has a stomach problem. It’s your job to take good care of his diet. How can you make soup that he doesn’t like?”

They immediately understood that it was the fish soup and hurriedly explained.

Lin Zhen didn’t say anything after listening, but Jiang Yu heard that Qiao Mo’s illness was related to him. If he hadn’t eaten Qiao Mo’s fish the day before yesterday, Qiao Mo wouldn’t have a stomach problem.

Qiao Mo didn’t come back that day, the assistant called back and said that Qiao Mo needed to stay in the hospital for a few days before he could continue to come back to film. Lin Zhen asked Qiao Mo to take good care of his illness, and shoot other scenes first.

Jiang Yu heard that Qiao Mo was going to be hospitalized, but he felt a little guilty and wanted to go to the hospital to see him. Early the next day after work, he asked Lin Zhen about Qiao Mo’s hospitalization address and asked Xiao Fang to drive him to the hospital.

The hospital where Qiao Mo lived was the one that Jiang Yu came to last time. The building where his ward was located was also right next to the building where he sent the old man back last time.

When Jiang Yu knocked on the door and entered, Qiao Mo was leaning on the bed looking at his phone. When he saw him, he put away his phone and smiled, “Why did you come?”

Jiang Yu walked to the bed and opened the insulation box in his hand on the small table. A scent of fish soup flew out.

“You brought me soup?” Qiao Mo took the spoon and took a sip with a smile. “Thank you.”

Jiang Yu said guiltily, “I ate your fish soup and you have a stomach problem, I’m sorry.”

Qiao Mo took a spoonful of soup and said warmly, “It has nothing to do with you. That fish is not only for me to eat. Besides, you were also sick at the time. My hospitalization is not your business. I don’t care. I don’t blame you.”

 

“Do you really not blame me?” Jiang Yu looked at him, his eyelashes fluttering.

“Of course I don’t blame you.” Qiao Mo smiled. He rubbed his hair and smiled gently, “Jiang Yu, Sister Yan used to be my agent, she is now your agent. I know that because of the termination of my contract with the company, Sister Yan has never forgiven me, I am sorry for her, but I really had a hard time. It was great that I can play the same TV series with you, I like you very much. I want to be friends with you.”

It took two hours from the village to the hospital. After a while, he and Xiao Fang went downstairs. Xiao Fang found that she had dropped her mobile phone and turned around to get it back. Jiang Yu walked slowly along the path alone.

There were benches for patients to rest on both sides of the trail. He put his hands in his pockets and walked while fascinated. Suddenly he heard a shout from the left, “Hey, kid.”

Jiang Yu glanced in the direction of the sound and saw the old man he saw last time waving at him.

He remembered that the old man was Qin Shen’s grandfather, and he walked over.

“Come, sit.” Qin Yunshan patted the position beside him and asked Jiang Yu to sit. He asked, “Why did you come to the hospital again? Did you get sick again?”

Jiang Yu sat down beside him and shook his head, “No, I’m visiting a person.”

Qin Yunshan nodded and asked with concern, “Looking at your wrinkled face just now, is the person visiting you not well?”

Jiang Yu lowered his eyes and hesitated for a moment before saying softly, “No, I was just thinking that he was obviously blaming me, even if he didn’t admit it, why would he pretend to be close and wants to be my friend?”

What Qiao Mo had just said were all lies. He could deceive others but he couldn’t deceive him.

Qin Yunshan patted him on the shoulder, “Tell this grandfather, what’s going on?”

 

Jiang Yu thought about it and said Qiao Mo was hospitalized. He only said that he was a colleague working together, but did not say Qiao Mo’s name.

After hearing this, Qin Yunshan asked, “How do you know that he lied to you?”

Jiang Yu, “…Intuition.”
