Social Death Patient 042
The old lady didn't mind reading it with her son again. Even if her son didn't ask her to, she would take it out and read it several times when she had nothing to do.
In order to watch Bai Jiesui's program, the old lady put in a lot of effort. After a period of exploration and learning, the old lady has become proficient in using the smartphone and can quickly find the program through the search bar.
Yan Yushan felt ashamed of himself when he saw how skilled he was in the operation.
Xue Bao's eyes were fixed on Grandma Yan's phone: "Grandma, put it on TV! I want to watch Sui Sui on the big TV!"
"Yes, yes, we can watch it on TV." Grandma Yan nodded repeatedly, but when asked to do the specific operations, she didn't know how to do it, and even clicked on several icons but didn't click on the right one.
"I've forgotten how I did it." Grandma Yan muttered to Xuebao.
Olaf's eyes were clear and ignorant, and she was unfamiliar with electronic products. It was already good enough for her to be able to call and send messages to Bai Jiesui. She had no idea how to understand the redundant and complicated software.
Grandpa Qi looked really anxious: "Didn't Xiaobai teach you before?"
Grandma Yan was displeased with his bad tone and threw the phone at him.
"Come here, didn't Xiaobai teach you too?"
Grandpa Qi was at a loss holding his phone. He could still solve mechanical problems, and that was his strong point, but he really didn't know how to use today's smartphones.
The old and young in the family just stared at each other.
At this time, Yan Yushan reached out and rescued Grandpa Qi who was in dire straits.
Although he is often jokingly called a person abandoned by the Internet by his fans, it does not mean that he really cannot use electronic devices. It’s just that electronic devices and the Internet are not very attractive to him, and he is not interested in focusing his energy on the Internet.
"Is this 'Dr. Bai's Mobile Clinic'?"
Olaf craned his neck to see: "Yes, this is Sui Sui's show!"
Yan Yushan quickly found the name of the TV device at home and then played the video on it.
The two old people and one child next to them were staring at the TV intently.
Seeing how focused they were, someone who didn’t know would think they were watching it for the first time.
Yan Yushan couldn't remember the last time he watched TV at home. It was probably more than 20 years ago, when he watched it with the person he liked.
It was obviously not a very interesting movie, but because of the people around him, he felt that the boring movie became interesting, and even hoped that the movie could go on forever.
Ever since she disappeared without saying goodbye, Yan Yushan never went to watch movies with anyone else purely for entertainment and relaxation. The only times he watched movies were almost always for work, such as various premieres and conference rooms.
Watching a variety show was the first time ever.
If she had always been by his side, they would definitely watch TV series and variety shows together, and in the future they would also watch cartoons and documentaries about their children's growth...
Life will definitely be much more interesting and happier than it is now, instead of being unable to be interested in anything except work and filming.
Grandma Yan was watching the TV with great interest when she accidentally discovered that her son was sitting like an old monk, seemingly lost in some memories, his eyes not on the TV at all.
The old lady felt that she was being treated perfunctorily.
"If you're tired, go upstairs and rest. Don't get in my way and affect my mood for watching Xiaobai."
Yan Yushan came to his senses and suppressed his depressed mood.
"No, I was just thinking about something." He sat up straight again and his eyes finally fell on the TV.
Grandma Yan didn't bother to say anything to him. She glanced at him and continued watching TV with a kind look on her face.
The old lady was so focused on watching TV that she didn't notice the unusual changes in her son beside her. When she saw what appeared on TV, she was completely stunned.
What they are watching now is an edited version, which lacks a lot of irrelevant content from the live broadcast. The main film is less than an hour long, but it is all the essence, especially when Bai Jiesui took Min Wenlun's pulse, understood his physical condition, and step by step exposed Min Wenlun's disguise. Almost nothing was cut.
"Our Sui Sui is so awesome!" Every time after watching it, Olaf would proudly applaud Bai Jie Sui.
Grandma Yan was equally proud of it, her face full of kindness and love.
"Xiaobai is really amazing. No matter who it is, she can't be fooled."
After watching the show, the old lady remembered that her son was sitting next to her. She turned around to ask her son's opinion, but found that her son was in a daze again, but this time he was staring at the TV.
"Watching TV with us for a while is like asking for your life, as if someone forced you to watch it with me. Okay, okay, go and do your own thing. You don't have to accompany an old lady like me."
He still looked dazed, as if he hadn't heard what Grandma Yan was saying at all.
The old lady thought he was engrossed in his work, shook her head in disappointment, and didn't intend to argue with him anymore.
But Yan Yushan suddenly spoke.
There was some inexplicable excitement in his eyes: "Is her last name also Bai?"
If it weren't for the fact that her son was already old and Xiao Chu was still there, and she didn't want Yan Yushan to lose face in front of his assistant, the old lady would really want to beat him up. This enemy was born just to piss her off.
"I told you that you didn't watch TV carefully. Didn't the TV introduce Xiaobai? We mentioned Xiaobai to you so many times, but you never took it to heart."
Of course Yan Yushan remembered that the little girl next door was called Xiaobai.
But he didn't know that Xiaobai looked so much like her, so much so that he almost thought he saw Baishuang on TV.
And Xiaobai’s surname is also Bai. Is there really such a coincidence in the world?
Yan Yushan's thoughts were a little confused now. He had countless guesses in his mind, but none of them were based on facts. After all, he hadn't heard from her for more than 20 years.
He was trying hard to confirm something, or to rule out something.
"Where are her family?" Yan Yushan asked nervously.
The old lady gave him a strange look.
"I haven't heard Xiaobai mention it, but I heard her talk about her Chinese medicine master, but she said he passed away." Grandma Yan suddenly thought of Xuebao, "Isn't Xuebao Xiaobai's cousin? Do you know Xiaobai's family?"
It was a rare thing for Xuebao to know, so she raised her hand enthusiastically and said, "I know, Sui Sui's mother is no longer with us. She was raised by the old man. Sui Sui found her father not long ago, but her father doesn't want to recognize her, so now Sui Sui is the only one in her family."
Grandma Yan was so angry that she slammed the table and stood up: "What kind of father is this? He doesn't even recognize his own daughter. Does he have any humanity left?"
Grandpa Qi was unusually furious: "It's outrageous. He has no sense of responsibility as a man. Even Min Wenlun wants to have his own child, but he's not as good as a man who cheated on his marriage."
Xue Bao nodded in agreement: "Because that uncle has a girlfriend, he is afraid that Su Su's existence will destroy their family. His girlfriend is very powerful, so she asked us Su Su to stop disturbing them, otherwise we will be in trouble."
Grandma Yan's chest was almost aching with anger: "It's better not to look for a father like this. If you find him, you don't know how much grievances he will suffer. Our Xiaobai is doing well now. No, our Xiaobai is doing well now. She is a nationally renowned female traditional Chinese medicine doctor."
Grandpa Qi: "Our Xiaobai has no shortage of people to love him, there's no need to look for some so-called father."
The two elders kept scolding Bai Jiesui, their irresponsible father, even more harshly than they had scolded Min Wenlun before.
Yan Yushan was upset and had no intention of listening to them criticizing Xiaobai's father. He went upstairs to his room in silence.
Xiao Chu had brought his luggage up a long time ago and placed it next to the wardrobe.
He walked over, put down the suitcase, unlocked the combination lock, and took out his wallet from inside.
Mobile payment is popular now and few people use wallets anymore, but he is different from others. He carries this wallet with him wherever he goes.
The wallet was given to him by Bai Shuang as his birthday present that year, and there was a photo of her inside.
A pair of bright and charming eyes seemed to be able to speak, staring at him and smiling.
Because of his special identity, Bai Shuang had been very cautious during the time they were together. They didn't even have a photo together. Over the years, he could only rely on the few photos to remember him.
Every time he flips through this photo, Yan Yushan can't help but smile.
But this time his smile was short-lived and disappeared in almost an instant.
He couldn't explain what exactly he was feeling. He hadn't been so excited for a long time.
After Bai Shuang left without saying goodbye, he had looked for her and thought about the reason why she left.
He made countless guesses, the biggest of which was that the pressure of being with him was too great.
At that time, his career was at its peak and his work schedule was so full that he rarely had a day off in a year. The opportunities for the two to meet were even fewer.
Being with him is destined to be a long-distance relationship and to endure tremendous mental pressure.
And there seems to be no end to this kind of days. Even Yan Yushan himself can't say when he will have some free time.
At that time, the fame of the two was like an insurmountable chasm. Yan Yushan had already won multiple awards with his debut work at the age of seventeen, and subsequently produced many representative works. He was recognized as a hall-of-fame actor in the circle and had a large fan base.
Bai Shuang is still a newcomer. Although she has begun to emerge and is hailed as the nation's first love by the media, she lacks accumulated works and is still a long way from Yan Yushan.
The two of them were rarely together, and no one around them was optimistic about their relationship as it was not compatible with their status.
After a long time, Bai Shuang would inevitably become anxious and worried, and feel insecure about him.
Yan Yushan was young at that time. It was his first time in love and he had no experience. He was also very busy with work and he only saw Bai Shuang a few times throughout the year. How could he notice Bai Shuang's emotional changes in time?
Before he could come to his senses, he received a farewell text message from Bai Shuang.
She said in the text message that she was very tired and that this relationship had exhausted her both physically and mentally. She felt that they were not in a relationship, but this relationship was constantly draining her emotions.
She said that she was not in a good condition to film the movie now, and she hoped that the two of them could separate for a while so that she could take the opportunity to adjust her mood and think about what she really wanted.
Finally, she said that Bai Shuang didn't want to see him for the time being because she had not yet thought about their relationship, and asked him not to look for her before Bai Shuang contacted him actively.
After this text message was sent, Bai Shuang really seemed to have disappeared from his world.
Yan Yushan could only get some information from Bai Shuang, knowing that Bai Shuang was fine and nothing had happened. However, Bai Shuang was very cautious and never revealed her current address.
Later, Bai Shuang lost contact with her classmates, and Yan Yushan no longer had any channels to inquire about her.
And Bai Shuang never contacted him again.
For a long time, he thought Bai Shuang must have thought it through. Because being with him was tiring, she didn't want to continue this relationship with him.
She may also find someone more suitable for her later, or someone she likes more. The two may have already married and had children, and she is too lazy to contact him anymore.
He himself still can't forget it and can't let it go.
Many times when he thought about it, he would find himself ridiculous.
But after making fun of himself, he would take out Bai Shuang's photo, carefully stroke her eyebrows and eyes in the photo, and recall the beautiful moments of the past.
Yan Yushan hopes that Bai Shuang can be happy. Even if they don't end up together, he still hopes that Bai Shuang can have a happy and complete family.
Therefore, he strongly refused to associate Xiaobai with Baishuang.
If they really have a connection, it means that Bai Shuang is no longer with us and was not happy when she was alive. Otherwise, the man Bai Shuang was looking for would not disappear at the critical moment, and he would not deny Xiao Bai now.
He had tried very hard not to associate the two people together, but those two similar faces always popped into his mind.
No matter what he was doing, there was a voice in his head saying, "Don't lie to yourself, they must be mother and daughter if they look so similar."
After being awakened in the middle of the night, Yan Yushan sat on the bed for a long time, holding his forehead.
This mystery seemed to have become his new nightmare. If he didn't figure it out, he might not be able to sleep or eat.
One o'clock in the morning.
He got up, found his cell phone and called Director Tan, telling him that he would be delaying his return to the set for two days.
Director Tan received a call from Yan Yushan in the middle of the night and was suddenly awakened by fright, thinking that something big had happened.
After hearing Yan Yushan's intention, Director Tan thought he was dreaming.
"What did you say? You can't go back to the group tomorrow?"
Yan Yushan had woken up and was standing by the window looking at the street lights outside.
"I have some personal matters to confirm first."
Director Tan felt that the sun had risen from the west, and Yan Yushan would actually ask for leave for personal matters one day.
He is a well-known workaholic in the industry. Apart from schedule conflicts, he has never taken a day off for personal matters.
"What happened? Would you mind telling us?" Director Tan wasn't gossiping, he was just curious about what important matter it was that deserved Yan Yushan's personal handling.
Yan Yushan remained silent: "I'm sorry, Director Tan, I can only trouble you to re-rehearse the play."
He was unwilling to speak, and Director Tan did not force him.
"I can only give you two days. I can't squeeze in more time. You know you have a lot of scenes to play, so this is the longest time I can give you."
Yan Yushan smiled and said, "That's enough."
He just wanted to ask a few questions, half an hour would be enough.
He hung up the phone and stared out the window at the silence. Although it was midnight, he was unusually awake.
It would be best if there was no relationship between Xiaobai and Baishuang, but if there was...
He was stunned because he had no idea how he would react.
The next morning, Xiao Chu packed up and prepared to take Yan Yushan to meet Director Tan.
However, Yan Yushan asked him to change his flight ticket back to the crew, and also sent him the coordinates of a location in the next city and asked him to drive to this location.
This was the news he had specifically inquired about in the morning. Bai Jiesui's program would be recorded there today.
Xiao Chu looked at the total mileage and found it wasn't far, just over 200 kilometers, and it would take more than two hours to drive there.
But the more he looked at this place, the more familiar it seemed to him.
After waiting for the car to drive out for about ten minutes, Xiao Chu suddenly remembered where he was.
"Brother Yan, isn't this the TV station that Hua Xin's ex-husband owns?"
"Are you talking about Zhuo Yongde?" Yan Yushan frowned and thought for a long time before he remembered the name of Hua Xin's ex-husband.
Fortunately, he has a good memory, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to remember such an insignificant person.
"Yes, why are you looking for Zhuo Yongde?" Apart from Zhuo Yongde, Xiao Chu couldn't think of who else Yan Yushan could look for there.
Although Zhuo Yongde has a certain status and reputation in the industry and is a respected industry senior, his status is still far behind Yan Yushan, and he is obviously not worthy of Yan Yushan going to him in person.
"I'm not looking for him. I'm looking for Xiaobai."
"Brother Yan, are you saying that Dr. Xiaobai is going to Zhuo Yongde's TV station to record a program?" Xiao Chu turned around to look at Yan Yushan in surprise, completely forgetting that he was driving.
Yan Yushan didn't know what he was so excited about, so he reminded him, "Focus on driving."
Xiao Chu quickly turned around and focused his attention on the road.
Xiao Chu couldn't help but be excited.
After moving things yesterday, he watched an episode of "Dr. Bai's Mobile Clinic" and has been hooked on Bai Jiesui.
He stayed up late at night to catch up on the previous "Healthy Life" and almost ate too much watermelon. He was full of admiration for Bai Jiesui and thought she was a god-like existence.
He has come to the same conclusion as netizens, that anyone with problems will suffer social ruin in front of Bai Jiesui.
If that's the case, then Zhuo Yongde is in danger.
Others who also think Zhuo Yongde is dangerous include Hua Xin and her daughter. Hua Xin has already called Zhuo Yongde to warn him not to appear on Bai Jie Sui's show.
An ex-wife who had been divorced for almost twenty years, with whom he never contacted and had no feelings for her, suddenly called to criticize his work. No one would pay any attention to her.
Hua Xin couldn't sit still, so she took Zhuo Qi and went straight to the TV station where Zhuo Yongde worked.
Zhuo Yongde has hosted programs on TV for forty years. From grassroots talent shows to large-scale festival celebrations, he can be seen everywhere.
He also accumulated a lot of mass base for himself with his good image on the show.
Some of the new hosts in the station were influenced by Zhuo Yongde and embarked on their hosting career.
Zhuo Yongde has always maintained his image as an excellent mentor, never stingy in imparting knowledge, and has helped the TV station to produce many outstanding hosts.
Some of the people he brought up are still working in the station, while others have gone to other stations and become the mainstays.
It can be said that Zhuo Yongde has many students all over the world. He has a very high prestige in the station and is very respected. At the same time, he is also very busy.
When Hua Xin and her daughter arrived, Zhuo Yongde was recording a cooking program with a young female host.
He taught very carefully and personally, and after the filming, the young female host kept bending down to thank him.
Hua Xin and her daughter waited for Zhuo Yongde for nearly an hour before Zhuo Yongde had time to meet them.
But when he saw them, he still ignored them and just kept calling the young female host over to talk.
"You're still a little slow in responding. When we're recording the show, we need to be able to deliver the final words. Watch and listen more often, and accumulate more relevant material. That way, when you're on stage, you'll be able to come up with something ready to go... Come to my office later, and I'll copy my material for you."
The young female host nodded and said yes repeatedly, and kept thanking Zhuo Yongde.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhuo. You are so kind. You are the most enthusiastic teacher I have ever met. I have learned so much from you. I don't know how to thank you enough."
Zhuo Yongde smiled lovingly and said, "You have made progress. If you can stand on your own in the future, that will be the best way to thank me. Go and have a rest for a while. We still have to continue recording the program later. No matter how young you are, don't tire yourself out."
The young host left with many thanks.
After seeing off the young host, Zhuo Yongde showed little expression when he saw Hua Xin and her daughter.
Zhuo Qi had no feelings for this father. If possible, he didn't even want to call him.
But thinking that Zhuo Yongde still had a lot of resources that she could use in the future, she still put on a smile and called him "Dad".
Zhuo Yongde hummed indifferently, and his face showed no sign of happiness.
He first returned to his office and drank some tea he had just brewed that morning.
"No one comes to see me for no reason. Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
Zhuo Yongde dislikes her, and so does Hua Xin.
If possible, Hua Xin really didn't want to come to him.
My marriage with Zhuo Yongde was completely an accident.
In her early years, she was young and could not control her feelings for Yan Yushan. She often drank alone. Once, she drank a few more glasses and slept with Zhuo Yongde in a daze.
That time, Hua Xin became pregnant and had no choice but to marry Zhuo Yongde.
Life after marriage is hard to describe, and Huaxin doesn’t even want to recall it.
Before getting married, I thought Zhuo Yongde had a good professional image, had connections and resources in major TV stations, and was a senior in the hosting industry.
Although he is a little older and not very good-looking, he can still live a decent life.
At that time, she already knew that there was no possibility for her and Yan Yushan, and she wanted to completely give up the idea by getting married.
But ever since she accidentally discovered Zhuo Yongde's special hobby, Hua Xin didn't want to spend a single day with him, and divorced him before Zhuo Qi was even one year old.
Hua Xin: "That's what I told you on the phone, asking you not to appear on Bai Jiesui's show."
He didn't listen carefully when Hua Xin called him before, but now he remembered it.
"I know, that program about treating patients, right? It's been very popular on the Internet recently. It was my suggestion that the station invite them to it, so what?" Zhuo Yongde asked righteously.
Hua Xin couldn't believe his ears: "You suggested that the station call them? Why did you call them?"
"Why? Of course it's for popularity. Aren't young people watching their shows these days? So we just called them over."
Zhuo Yongde has been doing traditional programs. Although he has a certain status in the industry, with the rise of the Internet, fewer and fewer people watch his programs on TV. His popularity is declining and few people know him.
The ratings for his show were plummeting and he was at risk of being canceled at any moment, which had reduced his income by more than half.
Anyway, he still has some connections and acquaintances among the senior management of the Green River Platform. The other party is willing to give him face and come over temporarily to record a program.
He took this opportunity to show his face in front of young people, let them experience his humorous hosting style and feel his personal charm.
So many out-of-date people have become popular again. He has a mass base and sentiment, so he doesn't believe that he can't become popular again.
Hua Xin thought he was crazy. After calling Zhuo Qi out, he said to Zhuo Yongde alone, "Zhuo Yongde, please be clear-headed. Aren't you afraid that your special habit will be discovered? If your image collapses, I'll see what you will do. Zhuo Qi and I will be unable to raise our heads because of you. Do you want to destroy Zhuo Qi?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, you crazy woman? I don't have any special hobbies." Zhuo Yongde firmly refused to admit Hua Xin's accusation.
He then took another sip of tea and said cunningly, "Who said I asked them to treat me? I asked them to treat the young people I brought with me. This is a benefit I give to their young hosting team."
