Everyone here is an artist who relies on their looks for a living, and their schedules are all full. If they get into a fight and get injured, causing delays in filming, they'll all have to pay a penalty for breach of contract.

"Bang!"

When Song Ze tried to reach out to Qin Wan again, Jiang Yan couldn't bear it any longer and punched Song Ze hard in the face.

"Go ahead and sue me if you dare. I have plenty of money to cover your medical expenses."

After uttering these arrogant words, Jiang Yan picked up Qin Wan and left without looking back, amidst Song Ze's hateful gaze and face-covering gesture.

Just then, a pair of bright, watery eyes suddenly looked at Song Ze with heartache...

Song Zehu's body trembled, and his heart, which had just wanted to back down, immediately filled with boundless courage.

Then, Song Ze rushed forward again...

"ah!"

"Bang!"

"Clang!"

"Crackling and popping!"

Seeing Song Ze lying on the ground in a miserable state behind her, Qin Wan was practically laughing hysterically.

Trash!

What Qin Wan didn't expect was that Jiang Yan, that jerk, actually took a wad of cash from the agent after beating Song Ze and threw it at his opponent.

"Go to the hospital and make an appointment to get checked out."

"If you have any questions, please contact my agent at any time. I will arrange for a legal team to follow up on your situation."

"Whether it's a lawsuit or compensation, I will do my best to cooperate."

The cold, hard banknotes slammed mercilessly into Song Ze's face, and with the onlookers watching the spectacle, Song Ze's brain exploded completely.

Ahhh!

Jiang Yan!

I won't let you get away with this!

Absolutely not!!!

Room.

To avoid suspicion and for Qin Wan's sake, Jiang Yan did not carry her back to the room alone, but instead asked their assistants to accompany them.

In the presidential suite, two assistants were waiting in the living room. Jiang Yan escorted the person back to the room and was about to leave when Qin Wan suddenly turned around and grabbed his hand.

"don't want……"

"What?" Jiang Yan didn't hear clearly and frowned as he looked at Qin Wan, who was clearly still drunk and not sober.

"Don't leave me..." Qin Wan's weak murmur came through the phone.

"...I didn't abandon you. I'll go and call my assistant to take care of you."

Jiang Yan sighed helplessly and gently patted Qin Wan's hand to comfort her.

"No, don't leave me alone."

Qin Wan seemed to be dreaming about something, shaking her head and murmuring softly. Her brows were furrowed, and her delicate face was full of helplessness and unease. She was also tightening her grip on his hand.

Helpless, Jiang Yan could only sit down by the bedside and silently hold her hand, trying to give her strength and comfort in this way.

"Honey, I haven't abandoned you."

"I am here."

"It's always been here."

Under Jiang Yan's comforting words, Qin Wan's nightmare seemed to have ended, and her tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

Then, Qin Wan opened her eyes groggily and saw Jiang Yan beside her. She thought she was still dreaming and subconsciously reached out to touch Jiang Yan's face.

"I thought you wouldn't come back..." Qin Wan murmured softly.

Jiang Yan frowned. "What do you mean you won't come back?"

"You promised me you would always be with me," Qin Wan said to herself, seemingly ignoring Jiang Yan's words.

In a flash, some long-forgotten memories resurfaced in my mind.

At that time, he and Qin Wan were still young. On a stormy night, Qin's mother abandoned young Qin Wan and left...

At that time, Qin's father was still enjoying his newfound freedom and had not yet returned home; he could not be reached by phone.

Qin Wan ran to his house crying, begging him to help her save her mother.

At the hospital, the moment the little girl learned the cruel truth from the doctor, she cried uncontrollably, unable to stop.

He stayed with her the whole time, comforting her.

At that moment, the little girl was held in his arms, carefully clutching his clothes and asking, "Brother Jiang Yan, will you abandon me like Mom did and not want me anymore?"

His answer at the time was "no".

But not long after, they moved their entire family overseas, and he broke his promise...

Thinking of this, a strong sense of guilt filled my heart.

Jiang Yan's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 59.

"I'm sorry, I broke my promise," Jiang Yan said guiltily.

Qin Wan stared at him blankly, as if she were dreaming. With expectant eyes, she asked softly, "Will you still abandon me in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan was taken aback for a moment, but quickly came to his senses.

Jiang Yan stared intently at her, his gaze seemingly carrying a hidden meaning, yet also appearing as it was in the past, merely the care a neighbor brother would show to his neighbor sister.

"And you? Do you want me to stay?"

Their eyes met...

Seeing the faint emotions in Jiang Yan's eyes that were not yet clear, Qin Wan stared at him for a while without blinking, then suddenly got up and threw herself into his arms, tightly hugging his waist.

"I want you to stay."

"I want you to stay with me, to stay with me forever."

"Jiang Yan, please don't leave again, okay?"

"Please don't leave me alone again, okay?"

"I'm so scared, I'm really so scared..."

"The day you left, it rained so hard, and there was thunder, just like the day Mom left. He hasn't come back, and I'm all alone at home. I'm so scared. I went to your house to look for you, but I couldn't find you anywhere..."

"I thought you, like Mom, didn't want me anymore."

"I sat at your doorstep waiting and waiting, but you never came back..."

Hearing this, Jiang Yan felt even more guilty.

At first, he was a little stiff because Qin Wan suddenly hugged him.

After hearing Qin Wan's words, he had no more worries or hesitations. He reached out and gently hugged her back, patting her back to comfort her silently.

"sorry."

"It's my fault."

"It's all my fault."

"I broke my promise, I lied to you."

Both nights were stormy and thunderous, both involved farewells; no wonder she later ran away from home and had such a falling out with Uncle Qin.

No wonder she was so obsessed with Song Ze.

It turns out that all the problems stemmed from him...

Jiang Yan's favorability increased by 5, current favorability is 64.

Guilt and heartache filled Jiang Yan's heart.

"I promise you, this time I will never break my word."

"I will always be with you from now on."

"Even if I really have to leave, I will take you with me." Jiang Yan promised earnestly and solemnly.

Upon hearing this, Qin Wan, nestled in his arms, smiled slightly, her eyes filled with a triumphant look.

With Jiang Yan's company and reassurance, Qin Wan's agitated emotions gradually calmed down.

Time slips away quietly...

Jiang Yan didn't know when Qin Wan had fallen asleep again.

When he found her, she was already sleeping peacefully in his arms. Her previously furrowed brows had relaxed, and she was curled up in a small ball in his arms, revealing her dependence on him.

He carefully carried her back to bed, gently tucking her in and tucking the blanket in. Only then did Jiang Yan tiptoe out of the room and back into the living room, where he was met with the gossipy gazes of his two assistants…
