Jiang Ling’er rolled her eyes at Li Yu.

“I see!” Wen Nuan said.

Li Yu spoke seriously, “If you don’t believe me, you can send someone to ask at the Weimei Flowers shop. We bought the flowers there.”

Wen Nuan sighed lightly and said, “No need. I know it’s my mom playing tricks. Tell Ling’er not to be sad. I’m fine.”

Li Yu immediately assured, “Rest assured, Ling’er has me! You on the other hand, don’t be upset, take care of yourself and recover soon.”

“I’m fine,” Wen Nuan said, “I’m just afraid that Ling’er will feel wronged. Why aren’t you with her today?”

Li Yu explained, “I’m on my way there right now. If nothing’s wrong, I’ll hang up. I’m driving.”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ling’er looked at Li Yu somewhat speechlessly.

Jiang Ling’er said, “How could you tell her the truth? Wen Nuan is the patient, and by saying that, if it causes a conflict between her and her mom, what then?”

Li Yu responded, “From Wen Nuan’s tone, you can tell she’s fine, and it’s just a minor surgery.”

Jiang Ling’er said, “But…”

Jiang Ling’er also knew it was a minor surgery, but by saying this, what if it led to a rift between Wen Nuan and her mother?

Li Yu spoke seriously, “1 know what you’re afraid of, but some problems must be faced by her. Otherwise, it’s you who’ll suffer. Who would want to face humiliation? It’s not worth it.”

Helplessly, Jiang Ling’er said, “I don’t want to make things difficult for Wen Nuan either.”

Li Yu smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Giving Wen Nuan a chance to grow up is an excuse. I’m just afraid you’ll be taken advantage of.”

Li Yu reached out a hand and affectionately stroked Jiang Ling’er’s hair.

Li Yu said, “Ling’er, 1 know there are some people and things you completely disregard, but I can’t let anyone bully you. I’ll use everything I have to protect you.”

A smile appeared on Jiang Ling’er’s lips. Being protected like this felt really good.

Tang Xiaoxiao watched as Jiang Ling’er directed the daughter’s actions. Tang Xiaoxiao looked disdainful and walked over to Cai Kun’s side.

Tang Xiaoxiao asked, “Brother Cai, what’s the background of this Jiang girl? The director seems to value her a lot, saying she’s Li Dalong’s assistant, and even Li Dalong treats her so courteously.”

Cai Kun took a step to the side. He would not tell her the truth.

Cai Kun smiled and said, “Maybe Little Jiang has a good personality.”

Tang Xiaoxiao sneered, “Hmm? A good personality? Last time, I just wanted to borrow her bodyguard. Did you forget the look she gave me?”

Cai Kun glanced at Jiang Ling’er. How could someone from the wealthy Jiang family let this nobody take her bodyguard?

Cai Kun said, “That day, you didn’t provoke Little Jiang; you provoked the director.”

Tang Xiaoxiao grumbled, “What? Clearly, it’s favoritism from the director towards that woman, that’s why he’s harsh on me.”

Cai Kun was somewhat mocking, “While you have time to complain, why not spend more time studying the script and memorizing your lines? Don’t give excuses later, saying you’re tired. Once the secondary male and female leads are done, it’ll be our turn.”

Tang Xiaoxiao looked displeased at Cai Kun and said, “Cai Kun, what do you mean by that?”

Cai Kun straightforwardly replied, “Just the literal meaning. An artist like you who can’t even handle the lines won’t go far. If this drama doesn’t make money, do you think your godfather would still invest in you?”

Tang Xiaoxiao disregarded it, “Hmph… how far I go isn’t up to you. You might have a bit of fame now, and quite a few fans, but you’re just a worker. You signed with that shoddy agency; how many resources can they provide you? Don’t you understand that yourself?”

Cai Kun disdainfully looked at Tang Xiaoxiao. Indeed, the company Cai Kun signed with wasn’t large, and currently, he was the only relatively famous artist. Good resources naturally followed him. In a few days, Cai Kun was going to participate in an entertainment-based variety show, and the fans were eager. Cai Kun didn’t say much; even if it was like this now, he could outshine Tang Xiaoxiao easily in a few days.

Cai Kun said, “Indeed, our company’s resources are average, but I believe they will improve. But for someone like you with no talent, you won’t go far. The entertainment industry isn’t lacking good-looking men and women.”

At this moment, the assistant director called out, “Miss Tang, do you need a touch-up? We’re about to start shooting your scenes with the secondary male and female leads.”

As soon as the assistant director finished speaking, the makeup artist immediately stepped forward to touch up Tang Xiaoxiao’s makeup..
