While Wei Changfeng was on the phone with Lin Xiao, Zhao Hui returned.
He told Wei Changfeng that the brand had shown all his medical reports and surgical records to the doctor in Paris they had contacted, and that there was no need to worry, the surgery was very successful, and he would be able to walk briskly again in a few months.
Wei Changfeng was completely relieved, and Lin Xiao on the other end of the phone also felt at ease after hearing this.
Zhao Hui said he would like to express his gratitude to the brand tomorrow, and he has set his return date for the morning after tomorrow.
The French side has already coordinated with the airline and will send a special car to escort him tomorrow. After arriving at the airport, he will use the VIP private channel to enter and exit, minimizing the public attention so that Wei Changfeng can quietly return to China to recuperate with his injuries.
Lin Xiao knew that it would be even more inconvenient for him to see them off under these circumstances, so he said goodbye to him and the others over the phone.
The next day, Zhao Hui and Xiao Hao went shopping and bought some special gifts for the translator and brand representatives who had been helping them coordinate the work over the past few days.
Lin Xiao stayed quietly in her small apartment, preparing for the upcoming school season.
Her father had asked her if she wanted to go home for the Spring Festival in early February, but Lin Xiao didn't have much desire to go back and face her family, who were not very affectionate towards her.
Moreover, this is the first Spring Festival after Lin Xue's engagement, and Feng Jinglin will likely be at her home as well.
Furthermore, I had only been abroad for a short time, and if I returned to China for vacation in February, my stepmother and sister would probably accuse me of being spoiled.
Wei Changfeng was unaware of Lin Xiao's complicated family situation. He simply asked her if she was going back to China for the Spring Festival, which was less than a month away. He said he would treat her to a meal if she did, to thank her for her help in France on several occasions.
Lin Xiao simply replied coldly that he wasn't going back and wished them a safe journey home.
After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Wei Changfeng said to Lin Xiao, "I also wish you success in your studies and a smooth life in France. I hope we can meet again someday."
On January 15, after being stranded in France for a week due to injuries, Wei Changfeng and others embarked on their journey back to China.
Lin Xiao spent over ten hours scrolling through his phone at home, but didn't see any messages or photos of fans seeing them off or picking them up at the airport. He knew that their trip hadn't been leaked, so there shouldn't be the kind of crowded scene he was worried about.
Charles de Gaulle Airport and the airline provided excellent service, offering wheelchairs and assistance with boarding and disembarking throughout the process, so Zhao Hui and his companions didn't encounter too many difficulties.
Life went on uneventfully, just like the calm and wide Seine River flowing past Lin Xiao's window.
Wei Changfeng kept his trip back to China very low-key, and his fans were unaware of it.
However, several passersby on the same flight still managed to take photos of them. While the photos weren't initially published, in the following days, someone, having nothing better to do, posted them online and asked netizens questions:
Can you guys help me identify this person who's wearing a coat, sitting in a wheelchair, and all bundled up? I can only see half of his profile, and he's wearing a mask, so I'm not sure if I can recognize him.
Soon, someone on the same flight replied: "It's him, he's quite handsome. I saw him take off his mask while eating; he was sitting diagonally in front of me in first class."
The small spark quickly spread, and fans began to panic, chattering amongst themselves: Why is our idol in a wheelchair? Is he injured? Does anyone know if it's true? When did this happen?
Oh, you were injured in France?
No, we saw them at the scene, they were perfectly fine.
Don't talk nonsense, it must be another marketing account's doing, always trying to smear us.
Look at my IP address, I'm in France. I can vouch for my brother; I was there when he was picked up at the airport.
I saw your address, I believe you! Everyone, please don't forward or believe rumors.
The photo is so blurry, you can't see anything at all! Not only was it taken from a great distance, but it's also a picture of someone's back.
You know what, I immediately recognized the guy in the wheelchair as looking like my brother.
No, as I said above, you can't see the person in the wheelchair clearly, but you can always recognize the person pushing the wheelchair, right? Unless you're a new fan.
Oh, I'm a new fan. Who's pushing the wheelchair?
Come on, let me, a longtime fan, tell you the truth: the one pushing the wheelchair is his assistant, Xiao Hao! I'm not mistaken. Xiao Hao has always been by his side.
Yes, yes, the long-time fan above is right. I'm a long-time fan too; I've supported him since his debut, for over five years. Besides Xiao Hao, the tall guy behind him is Zhao Hui, his manager. I don't recognize the woman wearing a mask next to him.
Seriously, you guys are amazing! These photos show people from behind or with their faces covered by masks, and you can still recognize who's who?
Nonsense! You've never been a fan of anyone before, have you? If you had, you'd know. You can recognize someone at a glance. I'd recognize you even if you were ashes!
Can't the person above speak like a human being?! Are you a fan or a hater? What do you mean by "I'd recognize you even if you were reduced to ashes"?
Everyone, stop arguing! What's going on?! The management company, come out and say something! What have you been doing all day?!
Yes, yes! Agent, come out and say a few words! Is our brother injured or not? Why are other families busy with the Spring Festival Gala rehearsals for various TV stations, while you're letting our brother stay at home doing nothing?
Ah, the one above, I was wondering about that too! Last month I heard that my brother was going to be on the Beijing TV Spring Festival Gala, but then I heard nothing more, and I couldn't find any information about it anywhere.
Exactly! It's been so many days since the event in Paris, and there's been absolutely no news! We were planning to organize a pick-up service back home, but we can't find any travel information!
Where's Zhao Hui? Come out and speak! Or let my brother come out himself. Is your company so busy with so many big stars that you can't handle them all? My brother, a star of his caliber, is completely disregarded in your company!
...
Wu Fei, the boss of the agency, was leisurely scrolling through comments on the sofa, praising, "Changfeng's popularity is really top-notch."
