Chapter 452 Marry me, okay?
The next day, after giving Tang Xiaoya acupuncture, the second grandfather carried his medicine basket to the back mountain to collect herbs.
Tang Xiaoya felt some strength returning to her body. She held onto the edge of the bed and slowly climbed off.
There was a small mirror, about the size of a palm, hanging in the toilet.
She walked over as if possessed and picked it up.
The next second.
"Clang!"
The mirror slipped from her trembling hands, crashed to the ground, and shattered into pieces.
The face in the mirror...it's so ugly.
It was covered with crisscrossing wounds, red and swollen, and looked nothing like a human face.
Upon hearing the noise, Youyou quickly ran inside.
"Sister Jin!"
She saw Tang Xiaoya crouching on the ground, covering her face, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably, and immediately rushed over to hug her.
"Sister Jin, don't be afraid. Second Grandpa said that the injury on your face will heal in three months!"
"Don't worry, this is only temporary!"
"Youyou".
Suddenly, a gentle male voice sounded from the doorway.
Tang Xiaoya was startled and shrank back to the corner as if she had been electrocuted, wishing she could hide herself away.
Wen Youyou turned around and exclaimed in surprise.
"Brother! Sister Jin has woken up, and the baby in her belly is safe!"
Tang Xiaoya covered her face tightly, only revealing a pair of terrified eyes, afraid that her ghostly appearance would frighten others.
Youyou took her hand and introduced them.
"Sister Jin, this is my brother Wen Yifan. You can call him Brother Yifan."
"He carried you up the mountain, and he also pulled you out of the sea."
Tang Xiaoya's eyes widened suddenly.
A savior?
She bowed deeply to the man at the door, her voice hoarse yet polite.
"Thank you for saving my life, Brother Yifan."
"It's good that you're awake." Wen Yifan stood there, tall and broad-shouldered, almost blocking the entire door frame.
He was carrying a thermos in one hand and a sealed bag in the other.
The bag contained an old bracelet and a black jade pendant with the character "南" (South) engraved on it in a flamboyant style.
"This is yours."
His voice was deep and pleasant to hear.
"Take a look, can you recognize it?"
Tang Xiaoya still covered her face with one hand and reached out her other hand to take it.
She looked at it carefully for a long time, but finally shook her head.
I have absolutely no recollection of it.
"Let me see the injury on your face." Wen Yifan looked at her, his tone leaving no room for argument.
Tang Xiaoya dared not let go.
Youyou quickly explained, "Brother, she has a brain injury. Second Grandfather said she has temporary amnesia. Her current name is Yan Jin."
Wen Yifan's gaze fell on her, and his tone softened.
“Sister Ajin, let me see, I won’t laugh at you.”
Tang Xiaoya hesitated, but finally, under the man's focused gaze, she slowly and gradually let go of his hand.
A scarred face was exposed to the air.
On the left was a shallow knife wound, and on the right cheek was a large, red patch from being scraped by rocks. The wound had just scabbed over.
Wen Yifan confirmed it.
A few days ago, the group of men in black who came to her door were looking for her.
Even with her face so badly disfigured, he could still recognize her as Tang Xiaoya, the current top-tier celebrity.
Who did she offend to suffer such a terrible fate, being disfigured and thrown into the sea?
He absolutely could not let her identity be revealed until he had figured things out.
"It's not bad-looking."
He spoke, breaking the silence.
"Your second grandfather will cure you."
Tang Xiaoya nodded haphazardly and lowered her head even further.
"I brought you and Youyou some fish soup so you can nourish yourself."
As Wen Yifan spoke, he unscrewed the lid of the insulated container.
A strong fishy smell wafted out instantly.
Tang Xiaoya felt a churning in her stomach and rushed to the side, leaning against a pillar as she violently retched.
Wen Youyou was startled and quickly ran over to pat her on the back.
"Brother, Sister Jin is pregnant. She'll vomit if she smells fish!"
She turned to Wen Yifan and said.
"Next time, why don't you cook some chicken soup?"
“Okay,” Wen Yifan immediately agreed.
Wen Youyou added, "We'll save the fish soup for Second Grandpa later."
Wen Yifan closed the thermos and looked at Tang Xiaoya again.
"Next time, I'll bring you chicken soup and some fruit."
"I'm feeling a bit wronged today, so I'll just have some porridge first."
Tang Xiaoya nodded weakly and said softly.
"Thank you, Brother Yifan."
"Where is this?" she asked again.
“This is Lianxin Town, which is under the jurisdiction of Suzhou. Our village is located to the east of Lianxin Town. It’s called Li Village, and we’ve been fishermen for generations,” Wen Yifan answered earnestly.
Lianxin Town felt very familiar to her, as if she had been there before.
...
The rain in Qingcheng just won't stop.
It felt like a long rainy season had begun, with rain falling incessantly.
Yan Jin sat in her executive chair in the office, her eyes closed and her knuckles pressed against her forehead.
Last night, he slept in the office break room.
He doesn't want to go back to that villa now.
Because Tang Xiaoya's shadow was everywhere there, causing him unbearable heartache.
Knock knock.
A knock came at the door.
Fu Yao strode in, clutching a tablet computer tightly in her hand.
"Yan Chen posted a video confessing his love to Xiao Ya! It's gone viral!"
Yan Jin slowly opened her eyes, her deep gaze falling on the screen.
On the screen is a video posted by Yan Chen's official account.
The man in the video is exceptionally handsome, facing the camera with deep affection in his eyes.
His confession spread to every corner of the internet.
"Four years ago, after just one meeting, you became the most dazzling presence in my life."
"I have seen your perseverance, your hard work and ambition, and your fearlessness."
"Every moment of you makes my heart leap."
"Tang Xiaoya, you are my most dazzling leading lady."
"My lifelong wish is to marry you."
"Will you marry me? @TangXiaoyaOfficialWeibo"
The video accompanying the confession also included a photograph.
In the photo, Tang Xiaoya is wearing a black, tight-fitting dance costume and is being held firmly in Yan Chen's arms.
She looked up at him, a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Yan Chen looked down at her, his face full of undisguised affection.
Yan Jin's eyes were almost burned with a hole by that photo.
Why.
How did they end up with such a group photo?
He didn't have time to investigate, nor did he have the leisure to do so.
He raised his eyes, his gaze chillingly cold, and gave orders to Fu Yao.
"Visit her official Weibo account."
"Publish an article."
Fu Yao's fingers flew across the screen.
Yan Jin's voice was devoid of any warmth.
"reject."
A short while later, Tang Xiaoya's official account received a new reply under that heartfelt confession.
There was no lengthy explanation, just eight words.
"I already have someone I love, I'm sorry."
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
#Yan Chen confesses to Tang Xiaoya#
#Tang Xiaoya rejects Yan Chen#
The two terms instantly went viral and became trending topics.
The fans were completely divided into two factions, and a fierce battle ensued in the comments section.
On the other side, Yan Chen looked at the eight-word reply on his phone screen, his face turning ashen.
He didn't expect that.
He really didn't expect it.
Yan Jin and his group actually managed to access Xiao Ya's official Weibo account! They really underestimated Yan Jin; even her account has become his private property.
Just as the online flame war was escalating, the people from Nanwan Daily arrived.
The two groups acted swiftly and found Yan Jin and Yan Chen respectively.
The message conveyed by the visitor was simple, yet carried an absolute sense of oppression.
"Miss Nan said she doesn't want anyone to use Miss Tang's name for publicity."
"If there is a next time, destroy the company first, then destroy the Yan family."
Yan Chen's eyes sharpened. Why was Nan Wan so concerned about Xiao Ya's affairs? It seemed to go beyond the friendship between ordinary friends.
At that moment, Nan Wan was angrily scrolling through her phone, looking at the comments that were tearing each other apart online.
Her chest heaved with anger.
"Have hackers take down both of their official websites!"
"Delete all related information! Leave nothing behind!"
"Yes." A man accepted the order and left.
Lu Qinglin walked in from outside, carrying a glass of warm milk.
He walked to her side and gently comforted her.
"Don't be angry. Your belly is so big already. What if you upset the baby?"
Nan Wan took the milk, took a sip, but her anger did not subside at all.
"Is the Xia family truly dead?" she asked directly.
Lu Qinglin said, "They have already declared bankruptcy, the head of the Xia family has been sent to jail, and the others secretly sent Xia Ran to the crematorium without daring to make a sound."
Nan Wan was still unhappy. "I want to go to Suzhou and see for myself."
Lu Qinglin was startled and quickly hugged her to comfort her, "Wife, be good, I'll go with you after you give birth."
"Zhang Xiuyi has been found and is being treated at the Yan family's hospital in Luocheng. Yan Jin is doing his best, but a suitable kidney donor has not yet been found."
Lu Qinglin spoke earnestly.
Nan Wan put down her milk glass and said, "Have someone find a suitable kidney for her as soon as possible."
He added, "Send someone to go again and have Chang stay in the area to continue searching. Even if... you must bring her back." Nan Wan didn't dare say those two words, "Otherwise, Dad will blame me."
As Nan Wan spoke, her eyes reddened again.
"Okay, don't be sad, I'll send someone over right away." He reached out and hugged her.
...
A month later, "Blazing Red Makeup" was released.
In just half a day, the number of views exceeded 100 million.
This speed directly broke the record for the fastest speed in the history of TV dramas.
The show became a huge hit.
Tang Xiaoya, this name became a household name overnight.
The female lead she plays goes from an unknown orphan girl to a powerful general who fights her way up to become an empress. The whole storyline is inspiring, exciting, and full of thrilling moments.
Weibo's trending topics were dominated by two topics.
#Tang Xiaoya's Fiery Red Makeup#
#Tang Xiaoya's Successful Start#
Countless collaboration offers from brands poured in, almost overwhelming the company's inbox, all specifically requesting Tang Xiaoya as their spokesperson.
She really became famous.
Sorry, I'm not available to answer at the moment.
"Yes, Miss Tang is still recovering from her illness."
Fu Yao held up the phone, her tone official and distant; this was the only reason she could use to brush off all collaborations.
It's such a pity. If Xiaoya were still here, she would be so happy to see this success.
at the same time.
Yan Jin stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of her top-floor office, looking down at the bustling traffic below.
He plans to use the money earned from this drama to do some charity work in Tang Xiaoya's name.
His assistant stood behind him, earnestly offering advice.
"Mr. Yan, Miss Tang's hometown is Suzhou. There is a small town called Lianxin Town, which used to be a famous scenic spot. The town is full of lotus flowers."
"In front of Lianxin Town, there is a small fishing village with old stone houses. The villagers are very simple and honest. Facing the sea and backed by high mountains, the scenery is absolutely beautiful."
The assistant paused, his tone becoming more serious.
"However, an earthquake six years ago completely destroyed Lianxin Town."
"It is said that a teacher risked his life to save 43 children, but all 43 children became orphans. We can go to this town and suggest a school or an orphanage."
Yan Jin's heart clenched suddenly.
43 children.
Tang Xiaoya's words instantly echoed in his mind.
He asked, "Tang Xiaoya, what is your wish?"
She replied, "I hope to earn lots and lots of money to build an orphanage and care for at least 43 orphans."
Could this be a coincidence?
Yan Jin turned around, her eyes deep and intense.
"Go and look up the name of the teacher who saved the person back then."
"good."
"Get ready, I'm going to Lianxin Town tomorrow."
"yes."
He wanted to see for himself if it was the place she liked. Then he would build the orphanage and school there...
