Chapter 26 Disagreement
The next morning, Yu Nian called his supervising lawyer and requested to work online.
The breakfast in the hospital was rather light. The nurse brought two bowls of porridge and a few side dishes on a dining cart. Yu Nian helped him up and let him sit up, then arranged the breakfast one by one and placed it on the bedside table. Ji Yanxing's left hand was in a plaster cast, and his right hand was hanging on the bed. Yu Nian looked at him, "Can you eat by yourself?"
Ji Yanxing glanced at his right hand and said calmly: "No."
The nurse said, "Mrs. Ji, Mr. Ji's hand is seriously injured and he doesn't have the strength to hold a spoon. Please feed him."
Yu Nian pursed his lips and said, "Okay."
She sat down beside the bed, scooped a spoonful of food with a spoon, and handed it to his lips, "Eat it."
Ji Yanxing stared at her and swallowed the porridge.
After dinner, Yu Nian needed to go home to get her notebook and daily necessities. On the way back, she called Chen Xi.
"I'm sorry Xixi, I can't go traveling." Yu Nian said apologetically.
Chen Xi just got up and yawned loudly: "What?"
Yu Nian briefly recounted the incident of Ji Yanxing's car accident, but of course she did not mention that he went out late at night because he had a quarrel with her.
"Well, he's really unlucky," Chen Xi rolled over and sat up, "Do you need to stay in the ward all the time?"
"No, his assistant is here, I'm going to go home and get something."
"In that case, have lunch with me today."
Yu Nian thought about it and said, "Okay."
Li Ming was in the ward, so she naturally wouldn't let Ji Yanxing go hungry. It was she who suggested going out to play yesterday, which made Chen Xibai happy. Yu Nian felt a little guilty.
Yu Nian called Li Ming and then took Chen Xi to a Chinese restaurant near the hospital. She asked for a small private room and waved her hand to let Chen Xi order whatever he wanted. Chen Xi didn't bother to be polite with her.
After ordering, she took off her sunglasses after the waiter left with the menu. "I'm just a second-tier celebrity, I can't even go out freely," Chen Xi took off her mask as well. "I can't imagine if I become a first-tier celebrity, I won't be able to go anywhere."
He who wears the crown must bear its weight.
"That's true," Chen Xi said with emotion, "You don't know that the leading actor in my last drama is a very popular star. The crew was full of bugs planted by illegitimate fans. Those people were quite capable. They were able to evade the security guards and so many staff members and plant the bugs in the crew."
"Even so, everyone wants to be the top star," said Yu Nian.
"Who said that? I just think my current status is just right."
Chen Xi has first-tier figure and looks, second-tier acting skills, and third-tier resources. Her plasticity is not too strong, mainly because she has a naive face. She is most suitable to play the rich girl who foolishly likes the male lead and is against the female lead in idol dramas. It is widely circulated in the entertainment industry that her face is as important as her kingdom.
Even though Chen Xi's acting skills are not that great and most of the dramas she takes are small productions directed by small directors, she has overshadowed the leading actresses in several dramas with her face and straightforward personality. She also has several classic roles, and the rich daughters in editing videos often use her stock footage.
Soon, the waiter came in and served the food, and after she left, the two of them ate and chatted.
"But I'm saying," Chen Xi suddenly changed the subject, looked at Yu Nian quietly, and blinked, "Did you have a fight with your fake husband?"
Yu Nian paused and asked her: "Why do you ask that?"
"I don't know you yet." Chen Xi raised his eyebrows. "You have an invincible mentality. What could make you unhappy? Of course, it's impossible for it to be about work, and it's even more impossible for it to be about your family. By the process of elimination, the only suspicious candidate is Yi Yi."
After a pause, she adjusted her nonexistent glasses and said the conclusion like a master of reasoning: "Ji Yanxing."
Having known Yu Nian for several years, Chen Xi has almost never seen her sad about anything. Her mentality is strong enough, and she has parents who can handle everything for her, so there is nothing worth worrying about. The only possible thing is emotional problems.
What's more, with her personality, now that she is married, her emotional problems will only be related to Ji Yanxing.
"You..." Chen Xi secretly guessed, "You have fallen in love with each other over time."
Yu Nian's eyelashes trembled slightly, not knowing how to answer, "No, we just had a disagreement over some trivial matters."
Chen Xi obviously didn't believe it: "Hmm"
Yu Nian found an excuse for her unhappiness: "Just think about it, you have to live with someone you have a disagreement with, eat with him, and pretend to others that your relationship is fine. How awkward and embarrassing it is."
"Why are you embarrassed?" Chen Xi looked at her straightly. "When you were a freshman, She Man spread rumors that you were being kept by someone. You two had a falling out, but you were able to get along with her calmly. I believe others were embarrassed, but I really don't believe you were embarrassed."
When she was a freshman, Yu Zhengye came on a business trip and drove to pick her up for dinner. Sheman saw them and took a photo and posted it in the gossip group.
A female college student and a middle-aged man driving a luxury car can easily lead to all kinds of stories.
Afterwards, Yu Nian clarified the matter and broke up with She Man, but even though she didn't think it was a big deal, She Man still felt embarrassed and called her counselor to change dormitories.
In Chen Xi's eyes, Yu Nian has always been a person with an invincible mentality. She held her chin and said with a smile: "Baby, you are not right."
Yu Nian explained: "Because I don't have to be with Charmaine Sheh for the rest of my life, nor do I need to maintain a good friendship with her outside, I can just ignore her as if she were air, so it won't be awkward."
Chen Xi was led by her words. Thinking carefully, the logic was fine, but she always felt something was wrong. Finally, she snorted: "Okay, but if you two fall in love with each other over time, you must tell me."
Yu Nian paused and looked up at her. "I thought it would be better to stay awake. At least I won't get hurt."
Chen Xi looked at her seriously, "But if you stay sober all your life, it would be too boring. And Mu Ji Yanxing is handsome and rich. Even if you are attracted to him first, it's not a loss. Our Nian Nian is so outstanding, he will definitely like you."
Yu Nian smiled and didn't respond: "Let's not talk about me, how are you and He Bai?"
"What can I do? He still ignores me..."
Chen Xi talked about her and He Bai's recent situation, and sighed helplessly: "I feel that my feelings are almost exhausted, and I am increasingly unsure whether I should continue to stick to this one-person relationship."
The meal ended with some casual chatting.
Chen Xi went to the law firm to find He Bai, and Yu Nian returned to the hospital. She first went to the car to pick up the computer and eyewear she brought from home, and then walked towards Ji Yanxing's ward.
As soon as she reached the door, she saw Li Ming who was on the phone. When Li Ming saw her, he quickly hung up the phone and walked over to her, "Madam, you are finally back."
