At the hospital, Feng Meng had just hung up a phone call when he saw Yue Jiuli push open his ward door and come in.
"What's wrong? Who called you just now?"
Yue Jiuli handed Feng Meng a glass of warm water and asked.
Feng Meng took the cup and said, "Hey, it's no one, just my manager."
"Huh? So you have an agent? I thought you only had one assistant and no agent."
Hearing this, Yue Jiuli was a little surprised and asked. Actually, it wasn't that Yue Jiuli was ignorant of the rules or lacked experience. It was because Feng Meng had been hospitalized for so long, and she hadn't seen his agent all day. During his hospitalization, apart from the director visiting Feng Meng, only Xiao Lan, his assistant, was running around. There hadn't even been a phone call from his agent. If Feng Meng hadn't said that he had an agent, Yue Jiuli would have thought that he had become his own agent.
"Hehe~ Sis, you're joking. I'm a small-time celebrity, how could I not have a manager?"
It's very late now, and Xiaolan has already gone back. Currently, only Feng Meng and Yue Jiuli are left in the room. Yue Jiuli is now Feng Meng's 'family member', so she has to stay in the ward.
Seeing that Yue Jiuli seemed a little curious about her manager, Feng Meng simply told her, "Actually, I do have a manager, but my manager manages too many artists, not just me. And I'm the worst one, with the least fame and resources, so under normal circumstances, my manager doesn't really manage me. Unless something big happens, they contact me by phone and rarely meet in person, since Sister Qingxin is very busy."
"So you had an accident and were hospitalized today, that's a big deal, right? Why haven't I seen her?"
Yue Jiuli finally realized just how unpopular Feng Meng really is.
She said, "Your agent is just... something else, isn't he?"
"Hehe~ I know she doesn't like me, but it doesn't matter. There's still about a month left. Once my filming wraps up, my contract should expire, and then I can terminate it."
Feng Meng suddenly showed a reluctant expression. He said sadly, "Actually, I still really like acting, but unfortunately, I'm unlucky. Plus, the waters in this industry are too deep, and I can't afford to play this game anymore. Oh well, my mother's illness is cured now, so I'll just retire from the industry."
Yue Jiuli guessed what Feng Meng was thinking from his expression, but since her relationship with him was just so-so, she didn't say much. She just said, "Do whatever you want. It's none of my business anyway. I can only give you a reminder: your luck isn't actually that bad. It's just that the time isn't right yet. But if you really want to retire from the entertainment industry, it's not impossible. Going home and spending more time with your family is also a good idea."
Listening to Yue Jiuli's words, Feng Meng recalled what Yue Jiuli had said before: that his mother could be saved this time, but she wouldn't live for long.
"Sister, tell me, how much longer can Mom live?"
Feng Meng lay on the bed, looking up at Yue Jiuli.
"Tsk~ I'm not really sure about that either, but she should be able to live another ten or twenty years, right? After all, she's still quite young."
Yue Jiuli wasn't really sure how much longer Feng Yuelin could live, but she guessed she could live for another ten years or so.
Upon hearing Yue Jiuli's answer, Feng Meng, who had been somewhat worried about his mother, was no longer so concerned. Lying on the bed, he laughed and said, "That's fine too. In ten years or so, I'll try to get married sooner so my mother can still have a house full of children and grandchildren, hahaha."
Just then, Feng Meng's phone rang. He glanced at the contact name and answered immediately: "Hello~ Is this Sister Qingxin? What's up? Oh~ okay, actually I'm fine, just a minor injury. I'll be fine after a few days in the hospital. Well, that's all for now, bye."
Feng Meng hung up the phone quickly. He said to Yue Jiuli with an indifferent expression, "Qingxin said she was going to come and see me, but then she said she had something else to do and couldn't come. Oh well, I don't care if she comes or not."
Feng Meng's agent is Yang Qingxin. She's actually a veteran agent, but she's arrogant and conceited.
She offended the company's higher-ups, so they forced her to manage a lot of artists, and if she didn't, she would have to pay a lot of breach of contract fees.
"Oh, actually I was quite happy when I heard that I was being taken under by Sister Qingxin, because I had heard of her reputation before. But later I heard that she had become someone's mistress, and that man's wife was a high-ranking executive in the company, so I and many other people were assigned to her."
Feng Meng has only been in the industry for two years. He entered the industry because he liked acting, but he was not very lucky and his family background was not good, so he did not do very well in the industry. If he had not met the director by chance, he would not have been able to get this role at all.
After listening to Feng Meng's words, Yue Jiuli smiled, watered her bamboo, and said, "Alright, since your manager isn't coming, you should go to bed early tonight."
"Okay, I understand, sis. But sis, are you planning to go home tonight or where are you going to sleep?"
Because there is only one bed in the single ward, if you want someone to stay with you at night, you need to ask the nurse for a small bed. However, a nurse just asked Yue Jiuli if she needed a small bed, but Yue Jiuli said no. So Feng Meng doesn't know whether Yue Jiuli plans to stay or go back.
