Chapter 1348: Popular Little Flower
The "she" he was referring to was Lin Xueer, a popular young actress who was currently filming on the set and was also a new star that Cheng Yunchuan's company was promoting.
Jiang Mubai's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it became difficult for her to breathe. She shook off Cheng Yunchuan's hand, staggered a few steps, and finally stood firm by holding on to the wall.
"Are you crazy?! In this situation, how do you want me to look at you? What do you want me to think of you?!" Jiang Mubai's voice trembled slightly with excitement, and a layer of moisture appeared in his eyes.
Cheng Yunchuan stopped and looked back at Jiang Mubai with a complicated look in his eyes, showing worry, anxiety, and another emotion that Jiang Mubai couldn't understand.
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing, turned around and walked away.
"Cheng Yunchuan! Come back here!" Jiang Mubai screamed at his back, but her voice was drowned out by the noisy footsteps in the hospital.
Cheng Yunchuan left in the end. He rushed into the night without hesitation, running towards the hell with flames shooting up to the sky. Jiang Mubai slid down to the ground weakly, and finally couldn't hold back his tears and burst out.
She didn't know what to do or what to do.
The day after the explosion, the entire entertainment industry was in an uproar, major media outlets rushed to report on the accident, and all kinds of speculations and rumors were flying around.
Some said it was an accident caused by the crew's inadequate safety measures, some said it was arson, and some said it was malicious revenge by competitors.
Cheng Yunchuan's company issued a statement immediately, saying that it would fully cooperate with the police investigation and assume all responsibilities. At the same time, they also expressed condolences to the injured and promised to do everything possible to help them recover.
Cheng Yunchuan stayed in the hospital and took care of Lin Xueer. Although Lin Xueer was injured, fortunately, it was only a superficial wound and she was not seriously injured. Cheng Yunchuan's careful care touched her deeply and made her more determined to capture the heart of this man.
However, Cheng Yunchuan didn't know that Jiang Mubai had quietly left the hospital.
Jiang Mubai returned to her apartment and locked herself in the room, not wanting to see anyone. The image of Cheng Yunchuan leaving kept replaying in her mind, and her heart felt as if it was torn apart.
She didn't understand why Cheng Yunchuan could disregard his own safety for another woman? Was his position in her heart so insignificant?
"Jiang Mubai, wake up! He no longer loves you. In his eyes, you are nothing!" Jiang Mubai smiled self-deprecatingly at himself in the mirror.
Her smile is uglier than crying.
Jiang Mubai sat in the empty apartment all night, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes, letting his tears flow freely.
Cheng Yunchuan's resolute back lingered in her mind. Every time she recalled it, her heart felt like a piece was being cut off by a sharp blade.
Just after dawn, Jiang Mubai received a call from the hospital.
"Ms. Jiang, Miss Lin has woken up and asked to see you." There was something strange in the nurse's voice, as if she was gloating.
Jiang Mubai gave a bitter smile. As expected, the heroine of the play had woken up, so it was time for her, an insignificant supporting role, to leave the stage obediently.
"I know, I'll be there right away."
An hour later, Jiang Mubai appeared at the door of Lin Xueer's ward.
Lin Xueer was lying on the hospital bed, her face pale, but she looked in good spirits. When she saw Jiang Mubai coming in, she gave a weak smile.
"Sister Mu Bai, you are here."
Jiang Mubai nodded, walked to the bed, and asked calmly: "How do you feel?"
"Fortunately, they are just superficial injuries. They will be fine after a few days of rest. It's all my fault. I made Brother Yunchuan so worried and hurt you... wuwuwu." Lin Xueer said, but her eyes suddenly turned red.
As she spoke, she actually started to sob, her tears streaming down her face made me feel sorry for her.
Jiang Mubai looked at her behavior and sneered in his heart. It would be a shame if she didn't win an Oscar for such acting skills.
"Okay, I'm glad you're okay. You have a good rest. I'm leaving first." Jiang Mubai said expressionlessly.
Lin Xueer suddenly grabbed her hand and looked at her pitifully: "Sister Mu Bai, Brother Yun Chuan... Is he still angry with me?"
Jiang Mubai pulled his hand back and said coldly: "I don't know, you should ask him."
Lin Xueer bit her lip, hesitating to speak: "But Brother Yunchuan...he refused to see me."
Jiang Mubai sneered in his heart and continued pretending.
"Then I have no choice." Jiang Mubai turned around and tried to leave.
Lin Xueer suddenly raised her voice: "Sister Mu Bai, please, help me explain to Brother Yunchuan, I really didn't mean it, and I didn't know this would happen."
Jiang Mubai stopped and looked back at her: "Explain what? Explain why you were at the explosion site? Or explain why you were not injured?"
Lin Xueer's face froze, her eyes flickering: "I...I..."
Jiang Mubai interrupted her: "Lin Xueer, you should know that some things cannot be solved by explanation."
After that, she ignored Lin Xueer and turned to leave the ward.
Just a few steps out of the ward, Jiang Mubai felt dizzy, his vision went dark, and his body fell backwards uncontrollably.
With a "bang", Jiang Mubai fell heavily to the ground and lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, Jiang Mubai found himself in an unfamiliar room with his hands and feet tied up, unable to move.
At this time, two men in black pushed the door open and walked in front of her.
"Miss Jiang, our boss wants to see you." One of the men in black said in a cold tone.
Jiang Mubai suppressed the fear in his heart and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
"It doesn't matter who we are. What's important is that our boss is very interested in you. If you know what's good for you, just cooperate. Otherwise..." said another man in black, grabbing Jiang Mubai's hair and forcing her to raise her head.
"What else?" Jiang Mubai met his gaze without fear.
The man in black sneered: "Then don't blame us for being rude!"
At this moment, the door of the ward was suddenly kicked open, and Cheng Yunchuan appeared at the door.
"Stop!" Cheng Yunchuan roared and rushed in quickly.
The two men in black obviously didn't expect someone to suddenly break in. They were stunned for a moment, and then one of them let go of Jiang Mubai and turned to greet Cheng Yunchuan.
"Who are you? How dare you meddle in other people's business?"
Cheng Yunchuan ignored him and walked straight to Jiang Mubai and untied the ropes on her.
"Are you okay?" Cheng Yunchuan asked with concern.
Jiang Mubai shook his head: "I'm fine, why are you here?"
"I received news that you were kidnapped, so I rushed here immediately. Tell me, who are you? Why did you kidnap her?" Cheng Yunchuan said, glancing at the two men in black with cold eyes.
"We..." One of the men in black was about to speak but was stopped by another.
