Chapter 538 The Ultimate Drama Queen



Ji Kangyong glanced at Shen Yanming and thought to himself, "It's really possible!" But he didn't say it out loud.

Shen Yanming knew that Zhang Heping had probably hung up the phone for this reason, so he took out his phone to call him.

Ji Kangyong didn't stop him, but to everyone's surprise, Shen Yanming took it out, glanced at it, and then put it back.

"What's wrong?" Ji Kangyong asked.

Shen Yanming felt like he had the worst luck of the day. He threw his phone in front of the car and said, "It's about to be chopped in half!"

Ji Kangyong glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and was also startled. He asked with some lingering fear, "If you didn't have this thing in your pocket, are you going to become a eunuch today?"

Shen Yanming remained silent, clearly acknowledging this statement.

He did not dodge one of the attacks, but at the time he only heard a "clang" and felt a push, and did not expect such serious consequences. Looking back now, he was really lucky!

Seeing Shen Yanming's constipated expression, Ji Kangyong laughed unkindly. Shen Yanming glared at him, but this only made him laugh even more unrestrainedly.

Two minutes later, after Ji Kangyong had finished laughing, he handed the phone from the left door storage rack to Shen Yanming and said, "You can make the call yourself."

Shen Yanming nodded and dialed Zhang Heping's number. However, the call didn't go through.

"What, he didn't answer?" Ji Kangyong asked.

Shen Yanming didn't say anything, but dialed again, and this time the call was answered.

As soon as the call connected, Zhang Heping's slightly impatient voice came through: "Old Ji, where are you? I can't see you. What time is it and you're still calling? I'm right at the hospital entrance. You can see me as soon as you come over."

Shen Yanming chuckled softly and said, "It's me!"

"Old Shen?" Zhang Heping jumped up, his heart pounding wildly. His eyelashes trembled, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Are you... are you alright?"

"No, I just got a few cuts. But the way you sound, it sounds like I'm about to die," Shen Yanming joked.

He didn't realize that he had just hit Zhang Heping's sweet spot.

Zhang Heping gave an awkward laugh and said somewhat guiltily, "How could that be! Old Shen, you're incredibly lucky and always try to avoid trouble. How could anything happen to you! I was just worried about you, so I took the day off to greet you at the door!"

"Yes, thank you for your thoughtfulness!" Shen Yanming said.

"Ha, of course, of course!" Zhang Heping replied.

Just as Zhang Heping was feeling the awkward atmosphere and was about to hang up, Shen Yanming said, "We'll be at the hospital in about fifteen minutes. My injuries are all superficial; a disinfection and some medicine will do. Please don't make a fuss and tell Qiao An!"

Zhang Heping was taken aback, a little flustered. He quickly responded, "Hello? Hello? Is anyone there?"

What signal is this? I can't hear it at all!

Ah! Director, you wanted to see me? Okay, I'll be right there!

Hello, hello?

Old Shen, are you still there? I have to go now, I'll hang up now, come find me when you get to the hospital!

Ugh, why haven't I received a response? Is my phone broken? Hello?

Shen Yanming listened to Zhang Heping's self-performation with a daze, and even after the beeping sound had rung for several seconds, he was still a little dazed.

Seeing his dazed expression, Ji Kangyong asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Yanming looked at him and asked very seriously, "Do you think Zhang Heping studied acting and is actually a master of acting under the guise of being a doctor?"

With his exceptional memory, Shen Yanming perfectly imitated Zhang Heping's last part, even down to the tone and intonation.

Upon hearing this, Ji Kangyong burst out laughing. For safety reasons, he simply pulled over to the side of the road and waited until he had finished laughing before restarting the car.

He touched his lower abdomen and said, "That guy, when did he become so talented!"

Shen Yanming shook his head speechlessly, "Who knows! But, with his performance like this, could it be that he's already told Qiao An the news?"

Ji Kangyong thinks that this is very likely the case.

But what could he say? Angrily confront Zhang Heping? Of course not!

Because they meant well. How could we not inform the other party's family after such a serious incident?

If it were him, he would make the call too!

Actually, ever since he learned that Shen Yanming was injured, he had wanted to let Qiao An know. But he knew Old Shen was the kind of person who would never let his wife worry.

He was even thinking of secretly calling Qiao An while he was getting stitches. But Zhang Heping was so quick! All he could say was, "Well done!"

However, worried that Qiao An might be anxious if he didn't know the situation, Ji Kangyong advised, "You should still call Qiao An and explain the situation clearly. Otherwise, I'm afraid he might get seriously injured from being frightened by Zhang Heping."

Shen Yanming nodded, "I understand!"

Shen Yanming hesitated to call Qiao An, because they were still unsure whether Zhang Heping had actually leaked the information.

What I said earlier was merely a deduction based on Zhang's dramatic performance.

But what if Qiao An hasn't received the message yet? Wouldn't calling him expose him?

However, Ji Kangyong is right. If Qiao An already knows, and the information she has received is artistically embellished, she might be terrified by the images she has conjured up in her mind.

Shen Yanming stopped worrying and called Bi Qiaoan.

Meanwhile, Qiao An was frantically packing clothes and toiletries for her hospital stay. She put her two little ones into the teleportation villa and released two baby carriers, just to make a show of it.

When she received the call from "Ji Kangyong," her hands trembled slightly, fearing she might hear some terrible news.

"Hello?" Bi Qiaoan's voice was weak and trembling.

Shen Yanming's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Wife, it's me! I'm fine. Don't listen to Zhang Heping's nonsense. He doesn't know the situation and was scared by Lao Ji's exaggerated claims."

Actually, I only suffered a minor injury; I can go home after getting my wound treated at the hospital.

Hearing Shen Yanming report that he was safe, Bi Qiaoan finally felt a huge weight lift from her shoulders. She kept saying, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright!"

Shen Yanming felt a pang of sadness and comforted him, "It will be dawn soon. Wait for me at home, I'll be right back."

But Qiao An refused. She said forcefully, "No, I'm going to ask the attending physician. Whether it's dawn or not, whether there's sunshine or not, I'm going! You can't stop me. If you really care about me, just wait at the hospital for me to come pick you up!"

Shen Yanming knew that this injury had frightened her, and she probably wouldn't feel at ease until she heard a professional say that she was fine.

So I nodded: "Then put on long sleeves and pants to protect yourself. If all else fails, wear a facekini, and also prepare sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat as backup."

Bi Qiaoan also planned to be fully armed. She nodded and said, "Okay!"
