Xu Xiaoyue's mobile phone rang, and her pager also received a message from her agent, asking her to call back immediately.
Since the mobile phone didn't have caller ID, Xu Xiaoyue didn't know who was calling. She was afraid it was Liu Yuliang or Liu Yuliang's mother calling, so she didn't answer. When she saw the message from her agent on the pager, Xu Xiaoyue looked at Ye Qing in surprise and then showed the message to Ye Qing.
After glancing at the comments, Ye Qing, who had just been thinking about how to tell Xu Xiaoyue her thoughts, took the opportunity to explain her concerns to Xu Xiaoyue. Then Ye Qing said, "Your agent asked you to call back. If it's about the hospital, you probably already know."
Previously, Xu Xiaoyue was preoccupied with the question of whether or not to get a divorce, and didn't think too much about the potential impact of what happened at the hospital.
Now that Ye Qing has explained it, and with her agent so anxious, Xu Xiaoyue realizes that what happened at the hospital that morning may have had lasting effects.
Regardless of whether she's in the mood to deal with those things right now, just like Ye Qing said, Xu Xiaoyue should at least communicate with her agent. Otherwise, if the agent doesn't know anything when reporters call to ask, the reporters might just write something out of the blue.
Xu Xiaoyue returned the call to her agent without much thought.
Just as Ye Qing had guessed, the agent had already heard the news, because a reporter called to ask.
Xu Xiaoyue briefly explained what had happened to her agent. Since the agent was also a woman, she was furious after hearing what Xu Xiaoyue said and finally asked, "What are you going to do?"
I understand the agent's anxiety, but this is a private matter after all. Xu Xiaoyue only sees her relationship with her agent as a colleague, so she won't go into too much detail. She only said, "What to do is not something I can decide. If the reporters call you again, just give them a quick answer. The reporters don't care what I do; they only care about how dramatic this is."
It was clear that Xu Xiaoyue didn't want to say too much about her private matters. Although her agent was indignant, she didn't press the matter further.
Xu Xiaoyue's agent has handled the relationship between the two, as well as their professional and personal matters, very well.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Xiaoyue looked at Ye Qing and said, "Thank you."
"You really are... why are you being so polite all of a sudden?" Ye Qing felt uncomfortable with Xu Xiaoyue's formality. "Besides, I didn't do anything, why are you thanking me?"
"You're quite calm; you anticipated what might happen." After saying that, Xu Xiaoyue hugged Ye Qing.
Ye Qing gently patted Xu Xiaoyue's back, but suddenly her hand stopped because she could feel Xu Xiaoyue crying silently.
Although her agent didn't ask Xu Xiaoyue what to do next, Xu Xiaoyue could imagine what would happen if the reporters found out, and what she would have to say to her grandparents and younger brother.
Xu Xiaoyue suddenly felt like she couldn't hold on any longer.
After crying silently for a while, Xu Xiaoyue let go of Ye Qing, turned her head away, took a tissue to wipe away her tears, and then choked out her feelings to Ye Qing: "Since my parents passed away, I've been the pillar of support for my grandparents and younger brother. I'm in charge of everything, including arguing with my uncle and aunt. I feel like I can do anything, but now..."
I couldn't continue the conversation.
Ye Qing understood this feeling. Perhaps what happened to Liu Yuliang's mother wasn't actually that painful for Xu Xiaoyue. Her current emotional state was entirely due to the fact that her grandparents would find out, and she couldn't hide it anymore.
It is said that every unhappy life is unhappy in its own way. Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue both had very difficult lives. However, the difference between Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue is that Ye Qing was single and had no family to worry about. Even when she was completely unaware of her own background, Ye Qing did not need to take care of her uncle and aunt because they had already fallen out.
However, Xu Xiaoyue has to take care of the elderly in her family and her young brother.
At this time, who wouldn't want a family member to support them? Xu Xiaoyue also hoped so, but her family members all needed to be taken care of.
She had no one to rely on. If they found out about what had happened, Xu Xiaoyue would have to pretend nothing was wrong and try to comfort them.
This is the reason why Xu Xiaoyue suddenly burst into tears.
"Look on the bright side. Grandpa and Grandma are so old, they don't read newspapers much, and even if they do, they won't read the entertainment section. I think they only watch the 7 o'clock news on TV, so there's no need to worry," Ye Qing comforted Xu Xiaoyue.
The only thing not mentioned was Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother.
Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother is in high school. If the incident at the hospital is widely reported by reporters today, her brother will inevitably find out.
Although she knew Ye Qing's words were somewhat self-deceptive, Xu Xiaoyue still chose to listen to them.
Or perhaps Xu Xiaoyue wasn't unaware, but in this situation, this was the only way she could comfort herself.
Just as Ye Qing had guessed, since reporters had already called Xu Xiaoyue's agent, this matter certainly wouldn't just quietly pass by.
So the next day there was news about Xu Xiaoyue, but it was in the entertainment section, a very small news article. Because Xu Xiaoyue was wearing a hat and scarf at the time, and not everyone in the hospital was a fan of celebrities, some people thought Xu Xiaoyue looked familiar, but they weren't sure.
Therefore, the news used the name suspected to be Xu Xiaoyue.
However, this seemingly insignificant news article began to slowly gain traction. In addition to entertainment news, it also made it into social news, and even family mediation programs on television discussed the matter, making it quite a hot topic.
Ye Qing originally intended for Xu Xiaoyue to continue living at her house, but because the news had become so sensational, she was afraid it would affect Ye Qing. When reporters found out Ye Qing's address, she left. However, she still lived in Ye Qing's house, the one Ye Qing had been allocated when the knitting factory was demolished.
Few people know about that place, so Xu Xiaoyue has been able to avoid some of the limelight for the time being.
Jiang Xinya was still at a loss after hearing Yang Zi's suggestion, but then Xu Xiaoyue made such a big news story, and Jiang Xinya felt like she had found an opportunity.
So she went to Yang Zi to discuss this matter.
After hearing Jiang Xinya's idea, Yang Zi felt that Jiang Xinya was indeed clever and could use others by drawing inferences from one instance. However, Jiang Xinya's approach would involve others, and Xu Xiaoyue was currently in the spotlight. If reporters found out about this, it would be a huge problem. Therefore, Yang Zi was reluctant to get involved.
Seeing Yang Zi's hesitant expression, Jiang Xinya questioned her, "You're not going to back out, are you?"
