"I'll ask him." Amei murmured as she struggled to get up from the bed. She reached for her phone on the table and quickly found someone's contact number with the hand that was not wrapped in a cast. Then, she dialed the number.
Jiang Yansheng smiled. She bowed slightly and saw the note that flashed on Amei's screen. There was only one word.
However, Amei's movements were too fast. Jiang Yansheng did not see what the word was.
A beeping sound came from the phone, and it made her heart race. Amei hung up the phone in bewilderment. "He seems to be busy."
"Forget about him." She stuffed the phone under the blanket and waved at Jiang Yansheng with a smile, asking her to sit on the bed. "It's not Yansheng's doing. I'll explain it to him later."
"About the phone call he made to you earlier, just treat it as a fart. Don't take it to heart."
Jiang Yansheng's eyes softened because of Amei's infectious words. She smiled. "But I really feel guilty. If you hadn't called me at that time, the car wouldn't have …"
Amei interrupted her loudly. "It's not right to think that way. I was the one who didn't look where I was going. How can you push all the blame to yourself?"
"Besides, I only suffered some minor injuries after such a big car accident. I can still walk well. It's not like I'll be lying in bed for the rest of my life."
She smiled and picked up the paper with the score and lyrics on it. She waved it in front of Jiang Yansheng. "If it weren't for Yansheng, I might have hidden the song I wrote."
The light in the ward was very good. The curtains beside the open window fluttered gently. The dust was like crystals scattered in the air under the sunlight.
Jiang Yansheng rubbed her throbbing temples helplessly. "On the day I sent you to the hospital, I ran into your band friends. At that time, I blamed myself and didn't dare to talk to them."
Amei smiled in a much more relaxed manner. She seemed to have confirmed from Jiang Yansheng that the car accident had nothing to do with her, so her eyes were curved into crescents. "No wonder when I woke up, there were two members of the band guarding me. As soon as I opened my eyes, they fought to be the first to ask me about you. I was so shocked."
"You don't have to be afraid the next time you meet them." Amei winked mischievously. "They are immature. You can just treat them as young children who like to dye their hair messily."
Jiang Yansheng nodded. He sat down and peeled two oranges for Amei. His fingertips were filled with the fragrance of the fruit.
She placed the peeled meat on a napkin, said goodbye to Amei, and left the room.
At the door, Chen Min leaned against the wall and stood guard, lost in thought.
When he was alone, there was no expression on his face. At first glance, he looked quite fierce.
When he looked up at Jiang Yansheng, his eyes were tinged with a smile. "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Yansheng nodded. "Thank you for your hard work."
Every time she came to Amei's place, there was no escort by her side. It looked cold and deserted. That unknown "boyfriend" was also elusive. She had never seen him even once. It seemed that he still didn't care about Amei.
No wonder Amei looked forward to a grand concert to confess. Perhaps she wanted to use this opportunity to keep him by her side?
"It's nothing. It's my duty." Although Chen Min was just an assistant, he had the unique courtesy of an artist. When he spoke to her, he would bow slightly and smile. "After all, I'm Amei's assistant now."
"Xiao … What did Mr. Xiao tell you?" Jiang Yansheng looked at Chen Min's flawless smile. In a daze, he felt like he was looking at a replica of Xiao Chuyun, smiling like a sly old fox.
"What Mr. Xiao meant was that Amei will be discharged in a few days. She's not considered an artist of our company. Artists are supposed to live in a private dormitory according to the rules, but since she's brought here by Miss Jiang, Mr. Xiao meant to give her a way out." Chen Min didn't play Tai Chi with Jiang Yansheng. The door to Amei's room was right next to him, so he covered his mouth with one hand and lowered his voice.
"I think Amei's recovery has been going pretty well these days. I've also seen the song she wrote today. It's similar to what Mr. Xiao said. She has potential, and the company will definitely focus on training her."
Jiang Yansheng grunted and patted Chen Min's shoulder lightly. "You know what she ultimately wants, right?"
"Amei won't be a permanent member of Cloud Entertainment. She's just a temporary member."
Chen Min nodded.
Jiang Yansheng was about to leave, but he thought about it and turned to look at Chen Min. "By the way, don't tell Amei's boyfriend about this. He's the one you met before."
Chen Min made an OK gesture as if he was very familiar with it. He pinched his lips with two fingers and slowly sewed his lips together. "Ah Mei told me before that no matter who I tell, I can't tell him."
Jiang Yansheng smiled and watched Chen Min push the door open and enter.
When she came out of the ward, she ran into the evening rush hour in the hospital. Everywhere on her left and right were people walking anxiously with payment slips in their hands. She pressed on the handrail and looked down at the lobby downstairs. It was densely packed with people, and the long queue at the registration window was a mess.
Jiang Yansheng sighed and looked at the tightly blocked elevator entrance. In the end, he still decided to take the emergency exit.
It turned out that taking a shortcut like taking the elevator actually took longer, and there were fewer people on the stairs.
"Deng deng deng." A few crisp sounds of high heels came from the corner downstairs.
It sounded like a woman was flying upstairs.
Jiang Yansheng lowered his eyes and glanced through the gap of the handrail. He was slightly startled.
She ruffled the hair on her forehead a little and pretended to look down for something in her bag, trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible.
The woman in high heels who walked with a crisp sound brushed past her as soon as she turned the corner.
In this weather, the woman was wearing an exaggerated black wide-brimmed hat and a black Korean Wave mask on her face. Her bag and clothes were brand new.
She frowned and didn't notice Jiang Yansheng. She just flew upstairs in a bad mood.
Jiang Yansheng waited until her figure disappeared at the corner upstairs. He slowly turned his head and looked at the end of the stairs with a complicated gaze.
If her intuition was right, the person just now was definitely Jiang Yaru.
But why had Jiang Yaru returned to Jingcheng?
Could it be that her high-spirited scene was finished so quickly?
Thinking of the last time he met Shen Lu at the door of Amei's ward, Jiang Yansheng touched his hungry stomach that began to growl.
After sincerely apologizing to it, Jiang Yansheng quickly followed the place where Jiang Yaru had just walked.
She came back in a hurry. It was very likely that she came to see Shen Lu who was in the hospital.
Following Jiang Yaru all the way, Jiang Yansheng was surprised to find that Shen Lu's ward was on the floor above Amei's ward. No wonder she could visit Shen Lu that day.
Jiang Yansheng tiptoed and stood at the door of the stairs. Through the glass window, she saw Jiang Yaru suddenly stop in front of a door in the corridor.
She took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
Jiang Yansheng followed closely. The door of the ward was covered. There was a crisp sound of a chair falling to the ground inside, followed by a woman's hysterical scream.
"Why did you lose the baby?"
Jiang Yansheng wrinkled her nose. She could clearly tell that it was Jiang Yaru's voice, but it seemed that she hadn't taken good care of her throat for several days. Her voice sounded very hoarse.
"You lost the baby. Didn't dad blame you? Even if you pushed the baby to Jiang Yansheng, he, a man, didn't even dare to fart in front of Jiang Yansheng! "
After the rustling sound of the quilt being turned over, Shen Lu's voice was heard. "How can you talk to your mother? Have you grown up now? Your voice is so loud. Fortunately, I live in a single ward. If there were people next to me … "
Jiang Yaru interrupted the woman's words impatiently. "Don't you know who gave you money to stay in a good ward? Why are you so rude now? Tell me, why did you abort the baby? "
Shen Lu stammered for a long time and whispered something, but because she was too far away, Jiang Yansheng didn't hear it. She frowned and leaned against the door, trying hard to hear what Shen Lu was saying. However, the woman's voice was like a mosquito's buzzing, and it wouldn't stop.
"What did you say?" Jiang Yaru's voice exploded. "How dare you do such a thing? Don't you take medicine every time after that? "
Shen Lu screamed irritably, "I don't know! Can you keep your voice down, you stupid girl? Do you want to die?! "
Jiang Yansheng slowly leaned his shoulder against the door and could vaguely see the situation in the room.
Jiang Yaru walked closer and looked at Shen Lu with red eyes. "Then tell me, am I my father's biological son?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yansheng's heart skipped a beat.
Biological son?
Could it be that she had guessed correctly before? The child that Shen Lu had tried so hard to abort really didn't belong to Jiang Chu?
She curled the corner of her lips cynically.
She had really made Jiang Chu a cuckold.
"What do you think?" Shen Lu couldn't believe what Jiang Yaru was asking. "If I didn't have full confidence when I gave birth to you, would I have gone up against Fang Manhan? When you were born, I took you for a blood test three times. Jiang Chu is 100% your biological father! "
She comforted Jiang Yaru's trembling hand. "Don't be afraid. You will definitely have a share of the Jiang Clan's property."
"The only hidden danger has been perfectly eliminated by mom these days. This kind of problem won't happen again in the future."
Jiang Yaru shook off her hand coldly. "I told you to reduce your meeting with that man. Why are you still like this? Are you ignoring my words? "
Jiang Yansheng stared at Jiang Yaru's lips. Suddenly, the cold sound of leather shoes rubbing against the floor came from behind him.
It was particularly clear in the crowded staircase.
