Searching for the truth amidst the fog,
Tracking down the murderer through danger,
Born for truth, dying for truth.
He complained again: "I have to go out later."
She glanced at him, his eyes dim, something must have happened. After a simple breakfast, he left in a hurry. Aunt Lin didn't dare to say anything, and looked at Mu Zishan: "I'll go outside to sweep the snow."
She put on her coat, went to the garage, drove the car, and followed Zhuo Qiang. He first went to an entertainment company, then to a law firm, stayed there for about two hours, and then went to the hospital.
Mu Zishan followed him and saw him get on the elevator, which stopped at both the sixth and seventh floors. So he went to the ophthalmology department on the sixth floor first, and then to the gynecology department on the seventh floor.
The elevator opened, and she found Zhuo Qiang in the corridor on the seventh floor, talking to a doctor. She walked into a ward and saw a woman breastfeeding her child.
"Sorry!" She turned and left, just in time to bump into the wall in the corridor.
He looked at her in surprise, said a few words to the doctor behind him, and then took her to the stairs: "Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?"
He was afraid that she might misunderstand something, so he took her to a ward where a woman was staying. Judging from her starvation, she must have been there for seven months.
The woman saw Zhuo Qiang bringing in a stranger and was a little scared: "Master Zhuo, who is this?"
He suggested that Mu Zishan stay here for a while, or talk to the pregnant woman who was about to give birth, while he went outside to deal with other things.
The woman on the hospital bed was Yan Mei, her stage name. She was an actress under Zhuo Qiang Entertainment Company, and had been missing for several months because of an affair with another actress. The media was now full of negative news about her. If those gossipy reporters learned that she was pregnant, and that the child was with the recently popular actor Wu Zhenhao, they would both be completely banned from the entertainment industry. So she turned to her boss, Zhuo Qiang, hoping he could help her through this difficult time.
Seeing that she was very sad, Mu Zishan asked, "Where is that man now?"
"Maybe he's promoting a new drama."
She suddenly remembered the actor she had met last time. Wasn't his name Wu Zhenhao? It shouldn't be difficult to find him.
"I'm sorry to bother you." Mu Zishan said sincerely.
"It doesn't matter. You're Mr. Zhuo's friend," she began to recount her suffering. "In fact, I've been waiting for him for a long time, but he doesn't seem to care."
"Then why do you still want to keep this child?" Mu Zishan really didn't understand this feeling.
They met at a party. At that time, Yan Mei was still a very popular actress in the entertainment industry, and Wu Zhenhao was just a small-time actor. But she didn't care about that. Her performance fees were enough to support the two of them. Through Yan Mei, Wu Zhenhao got to know many big directors. Because he didn't have any fame at the time, many people didn't like him that much. Later, because of an opportunity to work with Yan Mei, his fame was improved, and a company also signed a contract with him.
Gradually, their lives improved. She decided to stop taking on so many acting roles, and would cook for him every day and occasionally take him to company events. His work ethic grew stronger, and he would come home late every day, sometimes not appearing in front of her for long periods of time.
Later, she became pregnant. Because she was afraid of disrupting his work, she decided to leave for a while and tell him the news when the time was right.
But recently, she contacted him and was rejected. He already had a new girlfriend, an actress who was being promoted by another entertainment company. She was heartbroken and wanted to go to the hospital to have the baby aborted, but the baby was already growing in her belly and had become a living being. She couldn't bear to do that and had to choose to endure it all alone.
Once on her way to the supermarket, she was photographed by paparazzi, and the photos of her with a big belly were posted online, and she was bombarded with all kinds of criticism and speculation.
In this situation, the only person she could think of was Zhuo Qiang. It was his company that made her famous, but now it was she who caused such a big trouble for the company.
Zhuoqiang's men finally found Wu Zhenhao, who was promoting his film in another city. In this kind of abandoned love, the one who suffers the most is always the child who is about to start his life.
Yan Mei proposed marriage to give the child a legitimate status, but was rejected by him: "Yan Mei, think about it, we have worked so hard to get to this status, do you want me to be ruined now?"
"I didn't," tears had already carved traces on her face, "I just want our child to be fine, I don't care about anything else."
"But I care," Wu Zhenhao said, "How about this? You go back to your hometown first and give birth to the child there. After a few years, when I have enough money to let you live a good life, I will definitely come back to find you."
Mu Zishan, who was standing outside the door, listened to his lies and kicked the door open: "Are you still a man?"
Zhuo Qiang, who had just returned from the company, quickly stopped her and took her away from the hospital. The two of them sat in the car, and Mu Zishan's anger made the whole atmosphere strange.
She knew the harm an incomplete family would cause to a child. Rather than letting the child live in such a broken family, it would be better not to let him come into this world.
Now there was a large group of reporters gathered downstairs of the hospital. Zhuo Qiang drove away and went to a cafe.
From the perspective of the company and the boss, he hoped Yan Mei would conceal the news of her pregnancy and gradually fade out of the entertainment industry during this period. However, as a friend, he still hoped that Wu Zhenhao would marry her, make their relationship public, and have the child openly. Of course, doing so would come at a price. Wu Zhenhao's contracted company would definitely ask him for liquidated damages, and he would end up in a complete ruin.
Zhuo Qiang could only let a law firm intervene and help them solve this problem.
"From the look of him, he seems to want to abandon Yan Mei." Mu Zishan said.
"This matter will not go according to his wishes," Zhuo Qiang said, "He must take this responsibility."
According to him, they must get married first and then announce the news online. As for the problem with Wu Zhenhao's company, he has already arranged for someone to negotiate with them.
She sympathized with Yan Mei. If she had not been blinded by love, she would naturally recognize Wu Zhenhao's true nature.
