Instead of immediately agreeing to Xia Yehua’s suggestion, Song Yuanxi looked at Qiao Lian with a pitiful expression.

That look! Obviously, she was playing the sympathy card with Xia Yehua and putting Qiao Lian on the spot, so that she would be the one to invite her back to the house.

It was too much.

Qiao Lian looked down and calmly said, “Mom, you’re right. It’s not as though our family needs that money.”

Song Yuanxi’s heart leaped for joy when she heard this.

Her eyes glinted.

Wasn’t it because of you, Qiao Lian, that I was asked to leave the house? And now I will ensure you’re the one who invites me to come home.

Without having to think too long, Qiao Lian continued, “But it would mean that Yuanxi got injured for nothing.”

“What?” Xia Yehua was taken aback by Qiao Lian’s words.

Qiao Lian smiled as she looked at Song Yuanxi. “Actors all have stunts, but Yuanxi insisted on not using hers, which resulted in this situation. Mom, you have no idea but right now it’s all over the news... They are praising Yuanxi for her work ethics. If we milk this opportunity and let Yuanxi continue filming, for sure her popularity will shoot through the roof!”

Xia Yehua frowned at this suggestion and retorted, “But her injury—”

Qiao Lian exclaimed before Xia Yehua could finish, “But of course, my wish is for her to come home and recuperate, forget the opportunity. However Yuanxi is very career-minded, I’m not sure if we can talk her around. After all, one could still film sitting in a wheelchair and for some scenes it wouldn’t make a difference. The other scenes can be done by a stunt.”

Song Yuanxi was so furious when she heard these words that she almost threw up blood.

She had always known that Qiao Lian had the gift of speaking. However to be a victim of it, she now realized, was to experience an entirely different level of brutality.

She had said it all!

There was truth in it. If she went home to recuperate, it would suggest that she wasn’t career-minded. After all, one could film sitting on a wheelchair.

Qiao Lian continued with her gaze steadily fixed on Song Yuanxi, “Mom, I think we should let Yuanxi decide this one.”

Song Yuanxi gritted her teeth with fury but had to maintain a docile front still. “Auntie, Sister-in-law is right, it’s better that I continued filming.”

Xia Yehua looked as though she was going to speak, but Qiao Lian held onto her mother-in-law’s arm.

Xia Yehua sighed and finally said, “Fine, I understand.”

–

On the way home after they had left the hospital, Xia Yehua was still lamenting, “This Yuanxi, she must have been influenced by Liangchuan. Why would a girl want to be so career-minded? Sigh!”

Qiao Lian kept quiet throughout the journey.

Although she had successfully stalled Song Yuanxi for now, the filming would come to an end one day.

What would happen then?

Would it mean that this entanglement with Song Yuanxi would never end?

Although she had earned a sense of satisfaction from the verbal crossfiring then, Qiao Lian was now feeling exhausted.

She had thought that Shen Liangchuan was busy with work, but to her surprise when she got home, he was sitting back on the sofa reading the newspaper.

Qiao Lian halted and stood at the door.

Xia Yehua had already changed into her house slippers and was puzzled when she saw Shen Liangchuan. “Didn’t you say you were busy? If you have time, why didn’t you go to the hospital to see Yuanxi?”

Then she lamented, “You should have seen how pitifully she was crying. And she was tugging at my hand asking where her Brother Liangchuan was.”

“Liangchuan, you’re her brother, you should go and see her.”

Shen Liangchuan froze for a moment at the word ‘brother’, then he put down the newspaper and calmly looked up.

His expression was complex as he turned towards the door and looked at Qiao Lian.
