They have to act out forced love in the play.

How can it not hurt?

Even if it doesn't hurt, you still have to get it fixed; Xu Zhaozhao isn't that delicate.

But when Gu Qingyan asked her after filming, it was like throwing a stone into Xu Zhaozhao's heart, causing ripples.

She slapped his hand away and said anxiously, "Gu Qingyan, don't get too caught up in the role!"

Although he was annoyed that his hand had been slapped away, the slight redness behind Xu Zhaozhao's ears pleased him.

Fortunately, the second male lead's filming schedule wasn't too demanding today, otherwise the entire crew would have had to wait for him.

After the intense, forced love during the coronation ceremony, the male and female leads began a cold war, and their scenes were filmed separately.

To improve efficiency, the filming was conducted in two separate teams.

Xu Zhaozhao rarely had any problems, except for times when the supporting characters weren't performing well, in which case the director would remind her.

The two of them were incredibly efficient at filming.

They were even allowed to leave work early by the devilish director Luo Wen because filming couldn't proceed due to the absence of an important character.

Xu Zhaozhao finished get off work when the sunset climbed into the sky.

Gu Qingyan was still filming the last take, while Xu Zhaozhao had changed back into her own clothes and started removing her makeup.

As soon as I picked up my phone, I received a new message from WeChat.

Piglet: Wait for me to go home together, honey.

He paused, then shook his head helplessly.

This guy, even while filming, still has the leisure to send her messages.

I didn't reply to him; after all, he was right next to me.

I swiped out the chat box with "Little Pig" and found that he wasn't the only one who sent me messages.

Her mother also sent her a message and clicked on it.

Song Zhiyu: When will filming be finished, my dear?

Song Zhiyu: I heard that Xiaoyu had an accident on set. Do you have time to go see him with your mother?

This happened a few hours ago.

Xu Zhaozhao had already realized that her mother, who didn't usually surf the internet, had no idea that she and Yu Yao were in the same film crew.

Song Zhiyu: It seems quite serious. Two ribs were broken. I feel so sorry for the child.

Two ribs broken?

Xu Zhaozhao was somewhat surprised, not expecting it to be so serious.

I exited WeChat and called Ms. Song, who answered quickly.

"Wow, are you done with your work?"

"Hmm. I guess I'm off work today."

After answering Song Zhiyu's question, Xu Zhaozhao continued, "Did Mom go to see Xiaoyao?"

"No. Your Uncle Yu just said he's undergoing a checkup, so it's no use me going there."

The sound of a car door closing came from the other end. "She's been moved to a regular ward now. Mom's going to go see her."

Xu Zhaozhao was silent for a moment.

"Mom, can you pick me up? I'll go with you."

They agreed.

Xu Zhaozhao hung up the phone, sent her location to Song Zhiyu on WeChat, and then opened her chat with "Little Pig".

I typed and deleted in the chat box before finally sending it.

Shh: Mom said she'd have dinner with me, so I'm going to slack off now.

Shh: You go home first and make sure Yu Yu eats properly. Mom and I will come back after we finish eating.

Shh: [Here's a super big kiss for you.jpg]

After sending those three sentences, Song Zhiyu called and arrived at the entrance of her filming location.

She put away her phone and got into Song Zhiyu's car.

Song Zhiyu's attentive care for her from the back seat aroused Xu Zhaozhao's suspicions.

Looking at Yu Yao is secondary; looking at yourself is the primary focus.

Finally, when Song Zhiyu asked, "How many bowls of rice does my little one eat in one meal?", they arrived at the hospital.

They went directly to Yu Yao's hospital room.

Song Jinshi was already waiting sullenly in the corridor.

What does it have to do with him that guy surnamed Yu is sick? He still has to be forced by his mother to come see him.

The two exchanged a glance and followed Song Zhiyu into Yu Yao's ward.

Yu Yao, whose face was a little pale, was lying in a hospital bed wearing a hospital gown.

There was a serious-looking man in a Zhongshan suit standing next to him.

With a stern face, she spoke with concern: "That guy was really something, how much force did he use to kick you like that?"

"Dad. It's none of anyone else's business."

The man became displeased, his tone hardening, "You little brat! You couldn't have broken your own ribs, could you?!"

Only after seeing the three of them enter the ward did the man regain his initial calm demeanor.

"Hello, Uncle Yu."

The siblings shouted in unison.

Song Jinshi had already anticipated that Xu Zhaozhao wouldn't remember, and had just whispered a reminder in her ear.

Yu Jin nodded, which was considered a greeting.

"Thank you for coming to see Xiaoyao."

The group sat down beside Yu Yao's hospital bed. The two younger members couldn't get a word in edgewise, so they just listened quietly.

Xu Zhaozhao picked up a fruit knife and an apple from the fruit plate, and silently began peeling it.

Listening to the conversation between the two adults, Xu Zhaozhao realized speechlessly that Yu Yao only had minor cracks in two ribs and would be fine after a few days of rest.

The severity of these two cases is completely different.

After discovering that Yu Yao was alright, Xu Zhaozhao didn't want to stay there for even a minute longer.

He handed the peeled apple to Yu Yao and calmly said, "Get some rest."

With two elders present, Yu Yao couldn't possibly refuse to accept them.

He paused for a moment before accepting the apple with both hands. "Thank you, Sister Zhao Zhao."

Xu Zhaozhao went to the side to wash her hands, then came back and tried to grab her bag and slip away.

But Yu Yao called her "sister" and stopped her. She looked at him with puzzled eyes, her redness and swelling from crying still showing.

He swallowed the apple he was chewing and said calmly, "Please tell Senior Gu that I'm fine."

Why did you specifically tell Gu Qingyan?

Xu Zhaozhao frowned.

"But I have absolutely no relationship with Gu Qingyan."

Xu Zhaozhao retorted, "Xiao Yao knows what it means to be a mouthpiece in the entertainment industry, right? That's not a good job, is it?"

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

"You little brat! Don't you have a mouth?"

Yu Jin clearly sided with Xu Zhaozhao, saying, "Don't let it affect Zhaozhao's career."

Xu Zhaozhao grabbed her bag. "Uncle Yu, Mom, the company urgently needs me. I have to excuse myself."

Song Zhiyu wouldn't stop her, and Yu Jin nodded as well, "It's alright, it's alright. The child's career is important."

Using the excuse of sending her back to the company, they also rescued Song Jinshi.

As soon as they stepped out of the hospital, Song Jinshi couldn't hold back any longer. "Sis, I told you, this guy's got shit for brains."

He didn't believe his mother could misread the message; he was sure the guy had deliberately misrepresented "slightly broken" as "two strands broke."

Xu Zhaozhao smiled, too lazy to bother with him.

It was already getting dark, so she hurriedly asked Song Jinshi to take her home.

Xu Zhaozhao had just returned to the entrance hall and hadn't even had time to change her shoes.

"Mother……"

Gu Yulin rushed towards her with red eyes.
