The woman said, “Uncle, you don’t have to keep coming when your legs aren’t well. You’ll only get anxious if you’re here. Dad has me taking care of him. Besides, there are four nurses on rotation duties during the day. You don’t have to worry.”
The elderly man sighed. “I know I am a cripple and will cause you unnecessary trouble with my presence, but I can still help out a bit if he wakes up by keeping him company when you’re away.”
She helplessly said, “Why are you calling yourself a cripple, uncle? You’re being too harsh on yourself.”
“Well, that’s just the way it is.”
Tugging at the corners of his lips, he appeared to be somewhat resigned as he fell silent for a while before laughing. “You don’t have to be worried about me. I’ve gotten used to it by now after so many years. I’m capable of taking good care of myself.”
Not knowing what to do with him, she no longer said anything more.
…
In contrast to the large throng of media people camping outside the hospital entrance previously, the number had dwindled over these past few days. Upon seeing that they were unable to get any news from waiting there, many of them left, leaving behind the few persistent ones who remained there, hoping to get any major scoop or an update.
After a series of emergency treatments, Lu Jingtian’s life was finally saved. Surprisingly, like Yun Yecheng, her vocal cords had been badly damaged. Thus, it was unlikely that she would be able to say anything clearly in the future.
Still, it was fortunate that she had been successfully rescued.
There had been a worrying shortage of blood bags during the rescue process despite her blood not being of the rare type. Many kindhearted netizens, upon hearing this, rushed over to the hospital and donated blood for free to cheer her on.
In any case, she was still alive.
After she was wheeled out of the ER, the PR team of Huanyu updated the company’s Weibo page with a new post informing the public that the actress’s condition had stabilized while offering a few pleasant words, like ‘We thank the fans for their concern and the community for their kindness.’
After they posted that announcement, the other artists under Huanyu’s management voluntarily shared the post as they expressed their encouragement and support for the injured starlet.
Although Yang Mi, Li Jiuxian, and most of the other artists under Huanyu Entertainment expressed their well-wishes, how many of these were sincere?
Most were just skin-deep expressions of goodwill that did not mean anything.
The so-called moral support was mostly a hypocritical display of camaraderie. Not many were actually sincerely praying for her.
Lu Jingtian had poor work relations, for she had always been competing with others for the spotlight every single time.
Many were, in fact, secretly gloating when they found out that she had been disfigured. This was especially so for a certain female starlet, who had her lead role robbed away by her! She was filled with schadenfreude when she came to know about her misfortune!
This is karma!
Of course, such words could only be kept to one’s self.
No one dared to hit her openly when she was down.
This incident had sparked a sensation in the country. One had to pay all the more attention to their words and actions at this critical juncture.
After all, the keyboard warriors online were aplenty. Should one appear not sincere enough, people would start accusing them of being ‘callous’ , ‘apathetic’, and downright ‘cruel’.
That was how Yun Shishi got unjustly attacked.
She had been so focused on taking care of her father recently that she had failed to see the new Weibo post about Lu Jingtian.
Many fans started questioning the artist about her indifference toward this matter when they noticed the other Huanyu stars expressing their concerns for the bedridden starlet on Weibo while she did not.
Hence, Qin Zhou took it upon himself to log into his charge’s account to send well-wishes on her behalf.
