Mu Wan went for an X-ray scan, and the result was that the glass did not pierce her heart or injure her internally, only skin trauma. But because Mu Wan’s wound was in such a dangerous place, she had to be hospitalized for observation.
Liu Qianxiu handled the wound for her, and after talking about the precautions, he went to other patients. The nurse sent Mu Wan to the Surgical Inpatient Department, and Lin Wei accompanied her to the ward.
Yesterday, Mu Wan sat beside the patient’s bed. Now, Lin Wei sat beside her bed.
As soon as Lin Wei sat down, her legs and arms folded. Her eyes sharply looked at Mu Wan as she said, “Did you and Liu Daochang know each other before?”
Mu Wan leaned on the bed, the wound treated with anesthetics, so there was no pain but a little itchy. She moved her shoulders and said, “If I knew him before, could I not tell you?”
Lin Wei still believed in her. But when she remembered Liu Qianxiu’s usual indifference and how he praised her for the beauty of her birthmark. Lin Wei felt it was incredible. She reached out, touched her chin, and asked, “Could it be that you forgot him?”
Mu Wan said, “Is Liu Daochang’s kind of face easily forgotten?”
No, Lin Wei can remember him forever from the first time she met him.
“Then, he likes you.” Lin Wei rounded up in conclusion. “Liu Daochang is only interested in things he likes, and he praised you for your good-looking birthmark.”
Mu Wan did not think so about Lin Wei’s blind analysis. She recalled Liu Qianxiu’s deep and clear eyes vividly in her mind. She said, “How can immortals be moved so easily? Maybe bamboo-leaf-shaped birthmarks are rare, or they are of special significance to Taoists. Taoists sometimes are very mysterious.”
Compared with her, Mu Wan’s analysis seems more convincing. Lin Wei looked up at Mu Wan. Her face gradually recovered, not as pale as she had seen in the bathroom this morning. Mu Wan lives by herself and can only call her in an emergency. Fortunately, she didn’t injure her vital organs this time. Otherwise, even if the ambulance arrived early, it might be too late.
Lin Wei was a little scared at this thought. She leaned back and said, “But when I did the hospitalization procedure for you, the little nurse said it was the first time she saw Doctor Liu praise someone. It means that you are special. You just met him yesterday, and when you were admitted to the emergency room today, Liu Daochang also treated you there. You two have a good fate. A doctor’s income is good. It’s about the same as your 18-line actress. You two are talented and beautiful, so you are well-matched.”
Mu Wan listened to Lin Wei’s analysis. On rainy days, her legs always felt uncomfortable. She put one leg on the bed and said, “You’ll come up with our children’s names in a while.”
Mu Wan was joking with a weak tone and a lack of interest. Lin Wei sighed in her heart and said, “Don’t tell me that you are going to spend your whole life alone?”
Lin Wei and Mu Wan were high school friends. Lin Wei moved to Jiacheng for her college entrance examination. Her high school was in Xiacheng, and she had a class with Mu Wan. Mu Wan was beautiful, and the boys who chased her could fill a long line. But Mu Wan had never been in a relationship since graduating high school.
After entering the university, she moved out of the Mu family. She was busy filming to earn tuition and living expenses, never discussing her relationship. She had never seen her father, and the Mu family treated her as an outsider. In fact, Mu Wan had already been living alone since her mother died.
“It depends.” Mu Wan lived alone and had plenty of free time to think about life. As such, she had her own standards of life. “I can live comfortably alone. If there is someone who makes me live more comfortably, I would be willing to live with him.”
“Then Liu Daochang is not bad.” Lin Wei saw a glimmer of hope.
When Mu Wan saw this, she asked, “Are you afraid I will stick to you when I feel lonely, so you just want to push me out?”
“Have you ever felt lonely?” Lin Wei scratched her head after asking. Her eyes were dark, and she said, “You really should have tried it with someone or have a cat. Then you will know you are not afraid of loneliness just because you are used to being alone.”
Mu Wan knew Lin Wei was worried about her, but she didn’t want to be depressed about her life. She turned the topic aside and asked, “Do you have any clothes to wear here?”
Looking at Mu Wan in the patient’s uniform, Lin Wei had not yet stepped out of her moody thoughts and asked, “Why?”
“I have a dinner banquet tonight. I can’t get out wearing this.” Mu Wan said.
Lin Wei’s face turned dark: “Do you want to die?”
“It’s okay. I took a chest X-ray, and there’s nothing wrong. It’s just a skin injury.” Mu Wan said, “I didn’t go to a dinner banquet last time. I can’t miss it this time.”
“Then you tell your agent that you are in the Emergency Room today and almost died. You can’t go to the dinner banquet.” Lin Wei said.
“That won’t work. I received a notice this week. How can I pay my mortgage if I don’t shoot the movies?” Mu Wan said.
Lin Wei: “…”
Mu Wan did not wear Lin Wei’s clothes to the dinner banquet. She wore the patient’s uniform and went home. Then, she changed into a red cotton and linen dress. It was loose, so the dress would not stick to the wound. But at night, the anesthetic went away. Her left shoulder was useless, and she became powerless.
Li Nan sent Mi Yu to the dinner banquet. As the most famous artist under his command, Li Nan followed Mi Yu’s journey almost all the way. She was thirty years old and well-maintained, but people could see her age due to wearing too much makeup and staying up late to shoot movies all year round. However, the age seen in celebrities differs from that of ordinary people. She looked only 26 or 27 years old but still beautiful.
Seeing the two coming over, Mu Wan greeted and said, “Sister Yu. Big Boss.”
Mi Yu wore sunglasses. She was popular and thus needed a little disguise when she came out. Hearing Mu Wan’s greeting, her eyes swept over her, and Mu Wan could not see her expression under her dark glasses.
Li Nan found something wrong with Mu Wan’s left arm and asked, “What’s wrong with your arm?”
“Suffered a little bit.” Mu Wan answered.
“Okay.” Li Nan’s tone was flat. He looked at Mi Yu and told Mu Wan, “Mi Yu has a movie to shoot tonight. Director Zhang likes to drink, so you can help her toast a few more glasses at dinner later.”
Mu Wan has participated in a dinner banquet like this and can drink a lot. There was nothing wrong with toasting a few rounds. Mi Yu can recommend some of the company’s resources to her after her auditions, and it was understandable that she helped her toast.
“Okay. I understand.” Mu Wan said.
After speaking, the elevator arrived in the lobby, and Mi Yu took the lead in getting on. Mu Wan followed up. The elevator door closed, and the two were silent.
Mi Yu is the company’s most famous artist and her predecessor. She did not have a good temper and was a little arrogant. She also did not interact deeply with the other artists of the company.
She remembers that when she signed with Xinzhou Entertainment, Mi Yu had already been there, and at that time, Mi Yu was in the limelight. But Mu Wan still felt her hostility towards her.
This is the case in the entertainment industry, where young and good-looking actors will be 90% successful. However, Mu Wan was in the other 10 percent of that. Mi Yu gradually realized she was not ambitious in her career, so her hostility diminished.
