Inside the ward, Lin Yan took a script from her bag and gave it to Ji Qingqing with a smile.

Ji Qingqing received it without much thought and opened the title page. She casually read the plot synopsis and realized that it was an urban romance.
“Sister Lin, this is…”
Ling Yan wore the sapphire ring Chen Shu had given her on her finger while she unconsciously rubbed her stomach. “It’s an urban romance where there are two female leads. The director approached me and I will introduce you to him later. After you go home, read the script. If you like it, I’ll take you to audition.”
Ling Yan stayed out of the limelight for many years and now she wanted to make a comeback.
As if noticing Ji Qingqing’s doubtful expression, Ling Yan smiled. “I want to share the burden with Shu Yi. He gave me everything, I can’t stay at home and do nothing. I’m still young and it’s not like I can’t function.”
Ji Qingqing found her reasonable, so she nodded her head in agreement. Ji Qingqing checked the script and focused on the start of the shooting date — July.
“July?”
“I know your wedding is in July, but you don’t have to worry about it. The director mentioned that they would adjust the shooting schedule if you successfully sign the contract with them. It won’t delay your wedding. Are you aware that urban romantic dramas are easier to shoot than costume dramas? They don’t have to shoot in a movie city, the cycle is shorter, and the production costs are lower.”
Ji Qingqing thought about it and slowly closed the cover. “Sister Lin, thank you for thinking about me. I’ll go back and read the script carefully. If it’s okay, I’ll contact you again in regard to my decision.”
She had a lot to do in July for her marriage. No matter how much they adjusted for her, she might not be able to catch up. Knowing this, she shouldn’t be unscrupulous.
Her wedding day only happened once in a lifetime. She couldn’t be too hasty and had to be careful moving forward.

Lin Yan didn’t force her. “Okay, just take a closer look at the script. You must give me a reply afterward.”
Ji Qingqing smiled. “For sure.”
The ward’s door opened.
Lu Lixing walked in with a blank face. His back was straight, his legs weren’t weak, no dizziness, and he steadily walked. There was no trace of his situation ten minutes ago – a patient who needed support and was sick.
Behind him, Chen Shuyi looked smug.
“There’s no illness that I can’t cure!”
Ji Qingqing: “???”

The brightly lit bars were always the busiest at night in the entire city.
The smell of tobacco, alcohol, and perfume mixed with several low-quality and inferior wines resulted in the intoxicating scent of erosion and corruption.
Lu Liting sat alone at the corner booth, refusing every man and woman who approached him. On the large table in front of him, there were four or five empty wine bottles placed in disarray including a half-empty bottle of whiskey.

He didn’t get drunk easily. He drank a few glasses, but after vomiting them out, he was no longer drunk.
The bartender led four men from the entrance into the booth beside his. They settled at a table. Even though the light was dim, he still noticed the arrogance and reckless behavior of the men.
They were noisy.
Lu Liting checked the time and realized that it was getting late. When he was about to leave, he overheard the conversation of the four men, so he sat down again.
“I say, Yu Yang, you haven’t hung out recently. What are you busy with?”
Yu Yang sat in the middle as the other three held him. He chuckled briefly. “What else can I do? The old man detained me in the company, it was so boring.”
“Did you watch the news?”
“What news?”
“Ji Qingqing!” The volume rose as if the speaker was afraid that there would be no more chaos in the world. “I remember you had a relationship with Ji Qingqing. How was it? What was it like?”
Yu Ying flinched when he heard the name Ji Qingqing. He recalled seeing both Ji Qingqing and Lu Lixing at the Jis’ house earlier. For the first time, the experience of being treated as a grandson in front of outsiders was an unpleasant experience for him. It made him uncomfortable; he tugged at the tie around his neck.
“She must taste really good, otherwise, why would Lu Lixing fancy her?” The man tsked. “Ji Qingqing is amazing, since she’s able to hook up with that Lu Lixing. Now, the announcement is still hanging on Lu Lixing’s official website which is a sign that she has a complete hold over Lu Lixing. Her means are really amazing!”

“A woman’s heart isn’t difficult to understand if she has an unstable status, not to mention that she’s a woman in the entertainment industry. What men in the industry are simple?”
“In my opinion, our Brother Yu is still the most powerful,” one of the men said, lowering his voice. He looked around. “Lu Lixing has picked up your trash.”
“That’s right! But Brother Yu, how did you get a taste of Ji Qingqing in the first place?”
“Brother Yu must’ve hooked his fingers toward Ji Qingqing and she came running.”
The waiter brought wine. Yu Yang held his wine glass and the person beside him diligently filled his glass with wine.
“How else can I get it?” Hearing Yu Yang talking about the incident, the group noticeably turned quieter and closed their mouths. Yu Yang glanced at them, the corners of his mouth twitched. Then he sneered. “Of course, I soaked her with money.”
“I knew it! There’s no woman in this world you can’t buy with money. Ji Qingqing is probably marrying Lu Lixing for his money.”
“Brother Yu, I’m curious. How much did you spend to get her?”
“About half a million.”
“Lu Lixing probably spent tens of millions for Ji Qingqing! You only spent half a million to get Ji Qingqing. Brother Yu, you made millions!”
Yu Yang snickered. “At that time, Ji Qingqing hadn’t debuted yet. She was still a student, a poor girl. It seems someone in the family was ill, couldn’t pay the hospital bills, and was waiting to die in the hospital. The medical expenses were about half a million. Isn’t it worth spending half a million to play with a woman?”

“Worth it!”
“Of course, it’s worth it!”
“It’s worth it. But why didn’t I know about it? How long did you play with her?”
“Having fun with that unseemly woman? Why would I let you know?” Yu Yang took a sip of wine. “It was only for a few months and I kicked her away after graduation.”
“As expected of Brother Yu!”
Suddenly, Yu Yang remembered something. He laughed. “There’s something more. You’ll never guess this.”
“What is it?”
“Do you know who was with Ji Qingqing before she was with me?”
“Who?”
“Lu Liting!”
They went frozen for a few moments.
