Jun kept her promise and really dragged Shi Su to the hospital. Shi Su, of course, didn’t have a fever, but she did indeed need a follow-up at the hospital in the past few days. The doctor who came to her home for a checkup didn’t have professional equipment to assess her recovery. After the follow-up at the hospital, the doctor suggested that since her neck could move slightly now, she should stay in the hospital and use professional rehabilitation machines to promote recovery. This would ensure her neck wouldn’t be injured again when she joins the crew next week. Just like that, Shi Su was inexplicably pinned down by Jun in the hospital, and they even got her a private room, asking her to stay for observation and rehabilitation for two days as per the doctor’s advice. Staying in the hospital has its rituals too. The nurse brought her a new set of patient clothes, and when Jun saw Shi Su in those clothes, she quickly took a couple of photos with her phone. "Why are you taking pictures of me?" Shi Su, on guard, quickly turned away to avoid the camera. "I need to keep these photos. I might use them later to evoke some pity or something. After all, there aren’t many who can make patient clothes look so good and evoke compassion. Not taking a few shots would be a waste of your looks," Jun said, satisfied as she looked at the photos on her phone. Shi Su rubbed her forehead and sat on the edge of the hospital bed: "I’m playing a villainous second female lead and you’re trying to give me this pitiful ’little white flower’ image? Do you think people online are all fools?" Suddenly, she thought of the recent malicious rumors about Shi Su. Actually, Shi Su’s situation is worrying right now. She’s not famous yet, the show hasn’t wrapped up, and yet the so-called "black material" against her is well-prepared, waiting to strike when she shows any sign of success. So, at this stage, no matter what Shi Su posts in her name or from her point of view, even a period she casually posts would be questioned. Seeing Jun deep in thought, Shi Su got up, took her phone, and deleted the photos. Jun didn’t stop her. After taking back her phone, looking at Shi Su’s calm demeanor, she suddenly asked, "You were busy with filming recently, and didn’t have time. I didn’t take those rumors and gossip seriously, but they didn’t just come out of nowhere. Do you really know Mr. Yi?" Shi Su paused and then looked back at Jun. Jun looked into her eyes, and after a dozen seconds, squinted and said, "Do you really know him?" Although two years ago, in the United States, she saw Shi Su, who was temporarily playing an extra in a movie set, and was so impressed by her acting skills and rare beauty that she impulsively signed her as an artist. In these two years, she had come to understand Shi Su’s life situation. But when it comes to Shi Su’s past, including who Mianmian’s father is, Shi Su never said a word. All she knew was that Shi Su spent a few years in the United States, raising her child alone, completing her studies at Princeton University through part-time work and study. Though life was a bit tight, she excelled in all subjects with A ratings and mastered English, French, Japanese, and Korean. Moreover, Mianmian, although young, has a very likable personality, showing that Shi Su’s education of her child is quite successful. It was only because Shi Su was so outstanding that she left her enough personal space, knowing of Mianmian’s existence, and didn’t interfere. The rightful source is n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net While in America, if not for financial constraints, Shi Su probably wouldn’t have agreed to play extras in a movie set. She seemed approachable but rarely showed her true side, often keeping silent about many things. Perhaps because Mianmian filled almost every part of her life, Shi Su didn’t have much leisure time to think about anything else, making her appear carefree. Jun, being no young novice, could see that Shi Su had stories, but she never asked, as if the past was another life with no relation to her. Not to mention that Four Seas Entertainment holds a significant position in the industry, or the publicized relationship between Shi Yunyin and Yi City, but just the Yi Family itself is a high-level social class in Jiang City that ordinary people can’t touch. Facing Jun’s gaze, Shi Su didn’t explain but raised her hand to rub her neck, asking, "Did the doctor confirm I can return to the crew after two days of rehabilitation in the hospital?" Jun gave her another look and didn’t ask further, "Yes, the doctor said your recovery at home these past few days was pretty good, so just cooperate for two more days of rehab, and you’ll be fine." "Then please bring me the script later, so I can make some notes on scenes not yet shot, making it easier to get back into character when I return to the crew." Jun still seemed thoughtful. After a while, she said, "You’ve been wearing that thing on your neck these days; it’s inconvenient for everything. Mrs. Qin hasn’t returned. Who’s taking care of Mianmian?" Shi Su lifted her eyelids, but before she could speak, Jun slapped her thigh, "It’s that pretty boy again!" "Shi Su, I’m warning you, I don’t care who you were before; now you’re my artist, and you can’t be dating at this stage. Even if you want to date, find someone reliable. A guy who stays home for you to support, no matter how handsome he is, is useless!" Such a huge misunderstanding! Shi Su rubbed her neck with one hand, while the other hand went to her forehead. In a weak Lin Daiyu manner, she lay on the hospital bed, "Ah... dizzy... neck pain... the doctor said I still need more rest..." Jun, with a belly full of thoughts about the monetary values between men and women and life education views, looked at Shi Su’s rare poor acting today and put on a cold face. Before leaving, Jun angrily said, "Anyway, you can’t just support a man for nothing! But if he wants to become an artist, I can find some earning opportunities for him. After all, he’s so good-looking and has a great figure. Relying on his looks, he can surely succeed and won’t need your support!" Shi Su rubbed her temples. Yesterday, when Jun went to deliver the police-requested note for Shi Su’s personal signature, although she didn’t enter, she spotted Ji Han’s figure flashing inside the house. Even such a fleeting glance was misunderstood as a pretty boy, yet Jun still surprisingly praised him a bit. Jun wanted to say more, but seeing Shi Su rubbing her temples continuously, she held back and directly went out to find a doctor to arrange the rehabilitation procedures for her. Finally quiet, Shi Su laid on her back on the hospital bed and sent a WeChat message to Mianmian’s kindergarten teacher, asking if Mianmian could stay at the kindergarten these two days. Then she replied briefly to Mr. Cai and the makeup artist, who had messaged to inquire about her recovery. She intended to send a message to Ji Han informing him she wouldn’t be home in the next two days, but suddenly the thought of her awkward situations at home these past few days flashed in her mind, and her fingers hesitated over the screen. She smacked her lips and closed the message interface.
