"Forgot what?" Jiang Yan asked.
"I think I just saw someone taking pictures secretly," Qin Wan said expressionlessly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan paused in his steps.
He really forgot.
He forgot he was a celebrity, and a Grand Slam Best Actor who had just returned to China and was riding high.
They've also forgotten how crazy the paparazzi in China are.
"If you put me down now, you might still be able to save the situation," Qin Wan suggested.
“There is still hope.” Jiang Yan nodded in agreement.
Then, just when Qin Wan thought Jiang Yan would put her down, the man suddenly took a taxi and brought her to the nearest hospital.
Half an hour later...
Qin Wan was forced to walk out of the hospital with crutches and Jiang Yan's support.
"Jiang Yan, doesn't your conscience hurt?" Qin Wan said expressionlessly.
"Why does my conscience hurt when you've caused this mess?" the man said in a deranged manner.
"It's clearly you who's preventing me from finding someone else!" Qin Wan said through gritted teeth.
"Hmph, looking for another good match? Those young masters?" Jiang Yan's mockery couldn't be more obvious.
Qin Wan stubbornly refused to admit defeat, "...It's not like there's only the young master in the bar."
There are only two kinds of people in the bar: those who are young masters and princesses, and those who are looking for young masters or princesses.
"If your destined partner isn't the young master, then it's either the princess or the young master?" Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow, his words cutting to the bone.
Qin Wan: "..."
"Are you really that jealous that I'm not single?" Qin Wan asked angrily.
"You can think that way, that's not impossible."
"Anyway, I promised Uncle Qin that I would take good care of you, so I will definitely keep my word and never let you do anything reckless."
"It's not impossible for you to find a partner if you want to. As long as the boyfriends you find can pass my test, you can find a partner anytime. I promise I won't interfere or bother you."
As he spoke, Jiang Yan reached out and gently patted Qin Wan's suddenly straightened waist, "Watch your posture, you're a cripple now, don't you think your back is too straight?"
Qin Wan: "..." She had a string of expletives she absolutely had to shout!
"Jiang Yan, if you touch me again, believe me, I'll expose your true colors online right now! I'll ruin your movie star image!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yan retorted, "Who touched you? It was just a pat on the back, is it really that big of a deal?"
As he spoke, Jiang Yan's voice gradually softened; Qin Wan's sudden action had stunned him...
Jiang Yan's hand froze, his pupils contracted sharply, and he stood frozen in place.
The warm, soft touch left him momentarily speechless, unsure how to react...
"You, you woman really are..."
After a brief moment of distraction, Jiang Yan quickly withdrew his hand and put it behind his back, not daring to let Qin Wan see his hand trembling slightly.
Jiang Yan's favorability increased by 2, current favorability is 49.
Jiang Yan's favorability decreased by 2, current favorability is 47.
...
After fluctuating in favorability for a while, it settled down.
On the surface, Jiang Yan remained calm and unchanged, but Qin Wan noticed that he subconsciously kept his distance from her hand as he supported her, trying to control physical contact with her.
Upon realizing this, Qin Wan lowered her eyes, her long, curved eyelashes trembling slightly.
For the rest of the journey, Qin Wan didn't cause any more trouble, and Jiang Yan stopped talking so much; the two of them were unusually quiet.
Jiang Yan only dared to leave after successfully sending Qin Wan home and giving her several more instructions, forbidding her from running around again.
Watching Jiang Yan's departing figure, Qin Wan's lips curled slightly. As she turned to go back into the house, she took out her phone and sent an anonymous email to Song Ze.
Even though Jiang Yan was prepared, paparazzi still took advantage of the quiet of the night, when Jiang and his PR team were probably asleep, to start leaking information.

[Jiang Yan's PR team: The truth behind the online dating rumors.]
The studio released a series of photos and videos showing Qin Wan, leaning on crutches and limping out of the hospital with Jiang Yan's help.
