Remembering Tang Yaoyao's instructions, Jiang Ruyun tried to speak as little as possible so as not to aggravate her wound.

She didn't want to answer, but the phone kept ringing.

She suddenly remembered that Master Xiao had changed her agent; perhaps it was the new agent who made the call.

I answered the phone, speaking as softly as possible: "Hello."

A very official male voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, is this Ms. Jiang Ruyun?"

"Um."

"This is the city center hospital. Your father's medical bills have already been paid. Please pay the rest before 6 p.m. tonight."

Jiang Ruyun paused for a moment, then asked, "Didn't we communicate with the hospital to postpone it by twenty days each month?"

“Ms. Jiang, it’s not that we’re being unreasonable, but a new leader has come to the hospital. He’s seen that some patients can’t be admitted because of bed shortages and he’s demanding that patients who haven’t paid their fees on time be discharged. We ask for your cooperation, Ms. Jiang.”

Jiang Ruyun's eyes suddenly reddened; it all happened so suddenly.

But she couldn't blame the hospital; they had been lenient with her over the years.

“I will transfer the money to your public account immediately. Please do not stop my father’s medication.”

"good."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ruyun transferred all her savings into the hospital's account.

She calculated the time; in ten days, she would need to transfer money to the hospital again, but she had no money left.

what to do……

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Tang Yaoyao pushed open the door and saw that her eyes were red, as if she had just been crying.

Tang Yaoyao frowned slightly and sat down next to her: "Why are you crying?"

Jiang Ruyun didn't want others to know about her family situation, so she shook her head and smiled, "It's nothing."

Tang Yaoyao, unsuspecting, reassured her, "Don't worry, the injury on your forehead will be fine."

Jiang Ruyun smiled and nodded gently.

Tang Yaoyao checked her wound again and, finding no infection, was relieved.

"Then I won't bother you any longer, get some rest."

"Thank you."

Tang Yaoyao accepted the "thank you" and then left.

When Tang Yaoyao returned to the lounge, she saw Su Mei sketching out her lines in the script.

Su Mei looked at her with delight: "Brother Yao, you're back!"

Is there some good news?

Su Mei smiled and said, "Nothing good, but you definitely have something good to say."

"I?"

Tang Yaoyao sat down and leaned back in the leather chair: "What good thing could I possibly have?"

"Master Xiao is taking you away, surely to thank you for treating him last night. Could it be something else entirely?"

Tang Yaoyao raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of wickedness in her eyes: "Do you know what I did last night?"

Looking at the smile on her lips, Su Mei suddenly had a bad feeling: "What did you do?"

"Taking advantage of Xiao Laosi'er being unable to move, we teased him a bit."

Su Mei was somewhat shocked; only Brother Yao could probably do something like this.

"It's a miracle that you came back alive."

Tang Yaoyao steered clear of the topic and lazily asked, "Why didn't I see Ruan Cang today? Was my slash really that serious?"

Mentioning Ruan Cang, Su Mei's smile gradually faded. She replied, "He went to film another drama. By the way, I also found out that he had lunch with Chen Chunqiu at noon. I don't know if they were discussing business or something else."

Tang Yaoyao paused in her play with her phone.

She hasn't told Su Mei about Ruan Cang's relationship with Chen Chunqiu yet.

"Are you sure they met at noon?"

Su Mei nodded: "I'm sure, I've been keeping an eye on him lately."

"Then keep an eye on it."

"Yes, I know." Su Mei said, then frowned in confusion: "Brother Yao, in theory, our negotiations should be going smoothly, so why hasn't Chen Chunqiu called yet?"

Tang Yaoyao narrowed her eyes slightly: "Yes, there really isn't a problem."

Something must have happened on Chen Chunqiu's side.

Tang Yaoyao glanced at her phone, found Xu Wei's number, and suddenly had a bad feeling; she had a premonition that something bad was about to happen...

"Beautiful lady."

"Hmm?" Su Mei looked at her.

Tang Yaoyao lazily curved her lips and instructed, "Not only keep an eye on Ruan Cang, but also on Jiang Ruyun."

Su Mei was a little confused: "Brother Yao, don't you like Jiang Ruyun a lot? Why are you keeping an eye on her?"

Tang Yaoyao didn't know how to explain it to her.

Just now, when she stepped into Jiang Ruyun's room, she felt a heavy atmosphere in the room. She had a premonition that something might happen to this girl.

But once Tang Yaoyao decides to protect someone, she will never let anything happen to them.

"I'm afraid someone wants to harm her," Tang Yaoyao said directly.

Su Mei paused, stunned: "Why..."

She had just asked the question when a sudden thought struck her, and she frowned, "Brother Yao, do you think Ruan Cang and Chen Chunqiu might be good friends?"

"It should be."

Su Mei analyzed, "Since we're friends, Ruan Cang will definitely mention our crew to Chen Chunqiu. You're asking for too much right now. Chen Chunqiu is a big director after all, so he might settle for less."

Tang Yaoyao looked at her, signaling her to continue.

Su Mei added, "Ruan Cang will definitely tell him that today, Master Xiao personally changed Jiang Ruyun's agent. So, from this perspective, Jiang Ruyun's future may be more promising than yours."

Su Mei is right.

From the outside perspective, Xiao Jinhan not only internally decided that Jiang Ruyun would be the second female lead, but also changed her agent.

Jiang Ruyun is definitely a hot commodity right now, and she's the second female lead in the most popular unreleased drama. She's certainly no less desirable than Tang Yaoyao.

For Chen Chunqiu, Jiang Ruyun had an advantage that she didn't have: Jiang Ruyun was a newcomer who had just debuted, and she would be easier to control than Chen Chunqiu.

He could choose not to suppress her, but simply replace the pre-selected female lead. This way, he wouldn't have any conflict with Xu Wei, nor would he have to worry about Xu Wei exposing his dirty deeds to the public.

"It seems that Chen Chunqiu wants to choose a new target now, but he is probably still hesitating," Tang Yaoyao said casually, then narrowed her eyes slightly.

Su Mei sighed, "If this means we can't be close to Chen Chunqiu, then we won't be able to avenge what happened back then?"

Tang Yaoyao wasn't worried at all. Instead, she curled her lips slightly, her smile becoming even more charming and wicked: "There's no one that I, Tang Yaoyao, can't handle."

Seeing the sparks fly in her eyes, Su Mei's heart began to race. She asked softly, "Brother Yao, what are you planning to do with him?"

Tang Yaoyao fiddled with her phone, a faint smile curving her red lips, a hint of danger in her eyes. She said casually, "Chen Chunqiu is so eager for the female lead, we should at least help her out, shouldn't we?"
