Chapter 24.1

Su Qian had no idea that a post on her friend circle had caused a minor incident. She trained every day as usual. In the blink of an eye, twenty days had passed, and the action guidance was nearing its end. The official shooting was about to begin.

On the last day, Su Qian decided to treat herself to a good meal.

Her assistant was afraid that she would eat too much and waste all the hard work she had put in during this period, so she tried her best to persuade Su Qian to control her appetite.

Facing her assistant’s incessant chatter, Su Qian surprisingly missed the obedient Xu Ke.

“I won’t gain weight, and how much can I eat in just one meal?”

“I’m afraid if you eat too much, your face will swell up tomorrow.”

Su Qian’s stubbornness kicked in. She had been suffering and working hard for half a month, why couldn’t she have a good meal?!

“I’m going to eat! If I don’t eat, I can’t sleep! If I can’t sleep, not only will my face swell, but I’ll also have dark circles under my eyes!”

The assistant couldn’t win the argument, and finally compromised. Just as she was about to say she would go with Su Qian, Su Qian grabbed her car keys and ran off.

“I’ll go by myself! If you’re there, I’m afraid I won’t digest!”

The assistant was completely devastated, and screamed her name hysterically: “Su——Qian——!!!”

Su Qian escaped from the “claws” and found a place to feast. The restaurant was a bit off the beaten path, but many people liked to come because the specialty dishes were particularly delicious.

After a satisfying meal, Su Qian came out when it was already pitch dark. She walked through the long corridor to the courtyard, and just as she was about to get in the car, someone suddenly leaned in from behind.

She was startled and was about to use the little skills she had learned during this period, when the person behind her spoke.

“Su Qian, it’s me.”

The hoarse voice sounded somewhat familiar. Su Qian nervously swallowed and turned her head to see Jiang Zhan.

His face was so pale it was frightening, large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and his breathing was obviously heavy.

“You…”

Her words stopped abruptly when she saw the blood on his clothes. Su Qian took a deep breath and quickly said, “Did you have a car accident? Get in the car, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

She helped Jiang Zhan into the passenger seat and hurriedly got into the car as well.

“It’s okay, I know there’s a hospital nearby.”

She said it was okay, but her hand was shaking uncontrollably when she inserted the car key. Jiang Zhan slowly exhaled, bearing the pain and said, “I’m fine, don’t be afraid. I live nearby, just drop me off there.”

His wound was still bleeding, but he insisted on not going to the hospital for some reason.

Su Qian took her bag from the back seat, dumped everything out, and pressed a clean handkerchief onto his wound.

“Press it down, you can’t bleed anymore. I’m taking you home now.”

Jiang Zhan obediently did as he was told, and looking at her profile, he suddenly laughed, “This is the second handkerchief you’ve given me.”

“Do you think it’s free? You’ll have to return it later.”

Su Qian was afraid he would fall asleep, so she kept talking to him all the way. She didn’t bother to ask why he was injured in a car accident, and Jiang Zhan didn’t bring it up either.

They soon arrived at his hotel. Su Qian drove the car into the underground parking lot, used half of her body to cover Jiang Zhan’s injury, and helped him into the elevator.

Fortunately, there weren’t many people in the elevator at this time. When they reached the eighteenth floor, there were a few people waiting for the elevator at the door.

Su Qian frowned and pretended to be impatient, “I told you not to drink so much, but you didn’t listen! So annoying!”

Upon hearing this, the people stepped aside for the “drunkard”. Su Qian then stumbled and brought Jiang Zhan back to his room.

She carefully let Jiang Zhan lie on the bed, and then let out a heavy sigh.

What a mess this is, all the energy she had replenished from eating was consumed here.

“If you have something to do, go ahead, someone will come over in a while.”

Su Qian glared at him unhappily, “Are you trying to get rid of me after using me up?”

Jiang Zhan was taken aback at her words, then laughed softly, “I just don’t want to delay you.”

“At a time like this, you can still laugh.” Su Qian turned her head to go to the bathroom to wash her hands clean, then came over and slowly unbuttoned his shirt, “Don’t think I’m taking advantage of you.”

If it’s not treated in time, just wait for it to get worse.

“I thought you would be scared.”

Su Qian found some disinfectant tools, lowered her head and said, “My mom is a doctor, when I was a kid, I would eat while watching her perform surgeries.”

As she said this, she held up two fingers, “I could eat two bowls.”

Jiang Zhan’s arm was draped over his eyes, and his lips involuntarily curled up.

“So you’re quite unique…”

Hiss.

Before he could finish speaking, a faint pain came from the wound.

Jiang Zhan opened his eyes and looked at Su Qian’s profile in the dim light.

She was very focused, and her disinfection technique was very professional. It seemed that what she said earlier was not bragging.

“Your wound is not small, it might need stitches.”

Just as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang.

Su Qian: “Someone’s here.”

“It might be my enemies coming for me.”

Su Qian shrugged, took off her gloves, and went to open the door, “Then let them hit you a few more times, you’re sturdy anyway.”

Jiang Zhan watched her back and chuckled lightly, “You’re really ruthless.”

The door opened, and a young man was standing outside. He was taken aback when he saw Su Qian, then he smiled meaningfully, “It seems that he’s not seriously injured.”

Su Qian recognized him by his voice, it was the man who had called Jiang Zhan to leave at the banquet that day.

“You’ll know whether it’s serious or not if you go in and see.”

She went back and greeted Jiang Zhan. Since his friend had arrived, she was ready to leave.

Jiang Zhan was trying to get up from the bed, but his friend held him down, “Do you really want to play the Casanova?!”

An offhand remark obviously misunderstood their relationship. Su Qian couldn’t be bothered to explain, she nodded at Jiang Zhan, “I have something to do tomorrow, I’ll leave first.”

Jiang Zhan hummed a few times on the bed, and with all his strength, he said to her, “He has a problem with his brain, don’t mind him.”

Su Qian smiled, took out a bracelet from her bag, “I think this should be yours.”

The door gently closed, Sun Sheng picked up the bracelet and looked at it, clicking his tongue twice, “Oh my, how coincidental, you bump into her wherever you go.”

Jiang Zhan gave him a lukewarm look, and snatched it back, “Either stitch my wound, or stitch your own mouth.”

“Alright, then I’ll stitch you.” Sun Sheng opened the medicine box, shaking his head after looking at his wound, “It’s just a bit of property, your cousin really went hard on you!”

“He won’t last much longer.”

Sun Sheng administered an anesthetic, waiting for the drug to take effect, and chatted with him, “That beauty just now, you looked at her in a special way!”

Jiang Zhan’s eyes moved slightly, then he closed his eyes, “Go stitch your needle.”
