Chapter 262 Visiting the Sick

They wandered around the next place all night but still found nothing, so the two of them went straight back to the hotel to rest after dawn.

At noon, after Xiao Lan returned from picking up takeout for Yue Jiuli and Feng Meng at the hospital, she went straight home, leaving only Yue Jiuli, the woman who had been keeping them company, and Feng Meng in the ward.

"Hey sis, do you think they'll come again tonight? Should we prepare something? What if that lizard comes to kill me again and I'm done for before you can stop him?"

After lunch, Feng Meng scrolled through his phone while worrying about his safety that night.

Yue Jiuli was watching a food video on her phone, and the food in the video was making her mouth water. So she tugged at Feng Meng's hospital gown and said, "Hey~ it's still so early, what are you worried about? Seriously, hurry up and order me some fried chicken delivery, and remember, I also need my soda~"

Seeing that Yue Jiuli was practically drooling from watching the video, Feng Meng had no choice but to order fried chicken for her, and even two portions, because he was craving it himself.

About fifteen minutes later, Feng Meng's phone suddenly rang. As soon as Yue Jiuli heard the phone ring, she thought it was the food delivery. So she urged Feng Meng to answer the phone and even went up to open the door to the ward. Unfortunately, the call was not from the delivery person.

"Hello, is this the assistant director? Oh, right, it's room 703. You can just come in."

When Feng Meng answered the phone, he saw the caller ID. It turned out that the call was from the assistant director of the film crew. He said he wanted to visit him on behalf of the crew and that he had brought a few other actors with him.

The assistant director and Feng Meng had a good relationship, so Feng Meng was quite happy to hear that he was coming. After hanging up the phone, he said to the disappointed Yue Jiuli, "Sis, it's our crew's assistant director who's coming, not your takeout. You'll have to wait a little longer."

"Okay, I understand."

When Yue Jiuli learned that someone was coming to see Feng Meng, she told Feng Meng to lie in bed and pretend to be weak so that others would know he was indeed injured. Fortunately, a nurse gave Feng Meng an IV drip of nutrition today, so it looked quite convincing.

A few minutes later, several visitors came to the ward. Except for the assistant director, everyone else was wearing a mask and sunglasses, looking very cautious and afraid of being seen.

As soon as Yue Jiuli saw them, she knew who they were. They were the main actors in the drama that Feng Meng was filming.

Besides the assistant director, the people who came included the male and female leads, the second male lead, and several other supporting actors.

"Hey, Xiao Meng, how's your injury? Is it getting any better?"

As soon as the assistant director came in, he placed the fruit and other gifts he had brought on the table, and then inquired about Feng Meng's condition.

Feng Meng smiled and said, following the words Yue Jiuli had taught him, "Actually, it's nothing serious. I just need to rest for a few days. I can be discharged from the hospital and go back to filming in a few days."

When Yue Jiuli saw the fruit and snacks brought by the assistant director, she really wanted to reach out and open them, but since the assistant director was still there, she was too embarrassed to do it so quickly. Fortunately, the delivery call came at that moment, so Yue Jiuli hurriedly went downstairs to pick up the delivery.

When Yue Jiuli returned with the takeout, Feng Meng was left alone in the ward.

"Huh? They left so quickly?"

Yue Jiuli took a big gulp of her sugary drink and asked Feng Meng a very satisfied question.

"Well, they still have scenes to film, so they came to see me temporarily and also to check on my condition. I guess that's what they were thinking. If my injury isn't too serious, they'll wait a few days and then film according to the original plan. If my injury is serious, I might have to be replaced."

Feng Meng said with a bit of relief, "Luckily, I wasn't injured at all, otherwise I might have been replaced."

Yue Jiuli felt that Feng Meng's job was not good either, and there was a risk of being replaced at any time. She said, "Okay, it's okay. You are not injured at all. You can be discharged from the hospital in two or three days."

As Yue Jiuli spoke, she sat down on Feng Meng's hospital bed. She could finally unpack the snacks and fruits, but when she opened a gift box, she suddenly frowned.

"Feng Meng, who sent this?"
