Chapter 1356: Honey, Your Brother Bullied Me
Lu Xingzhi lifted the corner of her eyes slyly and said, "But who knows, people might say I’m deliberately riding on your popularity!"
"Little Zhi Liao, I was wrong." Huo Jinyan remembered several times when Lu Xingzhi would open her mouth and leave him speechless.
Lu Xingzhi stared blankly, still a little dazed. "What did I say? Why are you apologizing to me? Did you do something to let me down?"
"No." Huo Jinyan cleared his throat. "I just feel like apologizing first can’t be wrong."
Lu Xingzhi: "..."
She shook Huo Jincheng’s hand. "Your little brother is bullying me."
Huo Jincheng knew she was saying this on purpose, but he still had to stand on Lu Xingzhi’s side.
"You’ve really got some nerve now, actually bullying your third sister-in-law. Looks to me like you’re not aiming for stitches, you’re aiming for a fracture."
Huo Jinyan’s eyes went wide as he stared in horror at the couple in front of him. "Third Sister-in-law, I really was wrong, I’m sorry."
"Alright then! I forgive you." Lu Xingzhi’s eyes curved as she smiled. "I was just joking with you!"
How could Huo Jinyan not know she was joking? The fact that they rushed over this fast already proved they were truly worried about him.
He couldn’t possibly be so ungrateful.
"The doctor said the injury on your face will heal in a few days. Same with your body, nothing serious, but you still need to properly rest for a while. You’re such a big film king, the crew will wait for you."
Now that the anesthesia had worn off, Lu Xingzhi was afraid Huo Jinyan would worry about something, so she spoke up.
Huo Jinyan smiled. This third sister-in-law of his had just been trying to liven up the mood, worried he might overthink?
This third sister-in-law was truly an interesting person.
"How is it? Can you move?" Huo Jincheng sized him up. "Don’t take jobs with this kind of crew anymore."
They had no sense of safety—were those people hired just to eat?
"It’s just a minor injury." Huo Jinyan said.
"I’m here to transfer you to another hospital. In a while, someone will come help you pack your things." Huo Jincheng didn’t exactly distrust the doctors here, but the family’s own hospital would always be better.
"That’s not really necessary, is it?" Huo Jinyan said carelessly.
"Tell that to Second Brother yourself." Huo Jincheng handed him his phone. "See what Second Brother has to say."
"Alright. Anyway, my shooting here has already wrapped."
What else could he do? They were worried about him, after all.
"Get some rest first." After Huo Jincheng finished speaking, he left the ward with Lu Xingzhi.
Outside, Qi Bai, Xu Chen, and Qin Shen Shen were all there.
"President Huo, Mrs. Huo." Qi Bai was quite angry this time. He’d finally managed to work with Huo Jinyan again, yet because of those people’s negligence, the man ended up getting hit.
"Director, how did an accident that never should have happened end up happening?" Huo Jincheng’s face was cold and dark. "You don’t need to explain it to me—negligence is negligence."
"President Huo, I’m sorry. If Mr. Huo hadn’t stepped in to shield me, he wouldn’t have been hit." Qin Shen Shen stepped forward, her eyes red and swollen again; she felt utterly sorry toward her God.
"And you are?" Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes, his gaze on Qin Shen Shen probing.
"President Huo, this is our screenwriter." Xu Chen introduced.
He was quite worried about what Huo Jincheng might do to Qin Shen Shen.
"Even if it was supposed to hit you, does that make it unrelated to the prop team’s negligence?" This line came from Lu Xingzhi.
