Chapter 950 - A Check-up
Chapter 950: A Check-up
When the people from the television station saw that Nangong Lengyu did not try to advise him at all, just watching coldly from the sidelines, they thought to themselves, What kind of international Best Actress is this? She’s so petty. Nothing happened to her daughter anyway, so does she have to press hard?
In their opinion, she had only been supported to become the number one Chinese actress. The real person was merely mediocre.
Someone tried to step forward and persuade her again. They spoke words of praise to get the Best Actress to stop Huo Ci. Otherwise, from Best Actor Huo’s violent actions, someone would die. As soon as he took a step forward, he was so frightened by her cold, unfriendly aura that no one dared to approach her that he didn’t dare to speak.
Huo Ci received a call from Ling Sheng to report her safety immediately, but his heart was still blazing with fury. If he did not do anything, it would not be enough to quell the hot anger and anxiety in his heart.
Coincidentally, these two inarticulate good-for-nothings had bumped into him. Shouldn’t they have knelt on the ground immediately to beg for forgiveness when they had seen him? They had even dared to give him all kinds of excuses! They were obviously courting death!
Nangong Lengyu only observed for a while. Upon seeing that Huo Ci was really beating him to death, she finally shouted, “Huo Ci!”
Huo Ci turned around, his eyes burning with evil flames. He kicked Shen Kaiyuan again. “Think about it carefully. Why did I beat you two up?!”
Shen Kaiyuan was filled with boiling anger. In all his life, everything had been smooth-sailing. He had never been treated like this before. He had never suffered such a grievance. However, he too knew what kind of person Huo Ci was in his heart. He could only suppress his anger and nod hurriedly. “Yes, Brother Ci is right.”
Just he wait! Did Huo Ci think he was invincible? True, he did not have as much power as him, but even a rat had ways to inflict a painful bite on a lion! He definitely would not forget the humiliation he had suffered today!
The station head was already lying on the ground, unable to speak from the beating. His eyes were full of hatred as he looked at the ground. He had already apologized humbly at the first opportunity. What else did Huo Ci want?! He had gone too far with his insults! He definitely would not take this lying down so easily!
Ling Sheng stuck her head out of the door and looked outside. Upon seeing her father’s stance, she was really afraid that he would accidentally beat the people to death. She was scared out of her wits until he stopped. His burning eyes shot her a cold look and she took a step back in fright. She closed the door with a bang and touched her heart.
Si Chengluo looked at her. “What the hell?”
Ling Sheng shushed him and hurriedly pretended to be weak as she lay on the sofa. Her actions were so fast and her expression changed so well that Si Chengluo could not help but applaud her.
When she lay down, she even asked him for a box of loose powder and poured it directly on her face. Instantly, her face seemed to have fallen into a vat of flour; it was strangely white.
Si Chengluo looked at her series of practiced actions and held back his laughter. She had definitely done this kind of thing more than once or twice.
The next moment, they heard the door open.
Huo Ci pushed the door open and entered, his brows furrowed as he looked at the brat lying on the sofa. The anger he had vented by beating someone up just now rose rapidly again. He pointed at her and bellowed, “Don’t pretend to be dead! How did you promise me that? What did you f*cking say before coming to the program?”
He had already been whipped by the Old Master a few times at home, and his back was still hurting faintly even now! And it was all because of her!
She had said that nothing would happen and that everything would be fine, but what had happened in the end? She had nearly gotten crushed to death on the stage! When he thought of that scene now, his heart turned cold!
Ling Sheng was very weak. She looked at him and called out, “Dad!”
As he spoke, she realized that she had applied too much loose powder. She made small movements to shake it off. Her eyes could not take it anymore. She blinked, and tears streamed down her face from the irritation. Her nose was also incredibly itchy. She held it in because she did not dare sneeze either. The tip of her nose was red from holding it in. She looked like she was very upset and had suffered a lot.
Upon seeing that she was already crying before he could even scold her, Huo Ci swallowed the words he had wanted to reprimand her with back into his stomach. His eyes were spitting fire. “Why the heck are you crying?! Wipe your tears dry. I’ll kill them now!”
Then, he turned around and was about to leave.
Nangong Lengyu closed the door immediately and stopped him. Her gaze landed on his arm. “Do you really want to kill someone?”
When had he removed the cast? The doctor had said that he needed to recuperate properly for a week. Since the fracture, it had only been six days.
He had even exerted a lot of strength when he had punched those people just now. Was his arm grown on him?
Ling Sheng looked over with teary eyes. She sniffled and said in a hoarse voice, “Dad, you’re bleeding.”
Nangong Lengyu only noticed his fractured arm. Upon hearing Ling Sheng’s words, she finally saw that his other hand was bleeding.
One of Huo Ci’s hands was injured, while his other hand was fractured to begin with. She did not know how well he had recovered before he had hit someone. She did not know how badly he had been injured, but based on his expression, one could not tell anything.
Nangong Lengyu brought the medical kit over. She refused to apply medicine on Huo Ci. She looked at Ling Sheng and Si Chengluo. Any one of them could come over to treat him.
“Mom, I can’t. You know that I’m very clumsy too.” After saying that, Ling Sheng even shot Si Chengluo a secret look.
Upon receiving the order, Si Chengluo let out a low cough and said, “Teacher Nangong, I can’t control my strength either. I can’t do delicate work well.”
Huo Ci swept a death glare over the duo, who hurriedly avoided his gaze and looked down at their phones. F*ck, they were ganging up on him!
Nangong Lengyu stood up to leave. “I’ll find Luo Luo’s agent.”
Huo Ci let out a mocking laugh. “It’s just bandaging a wound. There’s no need to find someone. I’ll wrap it myself.”
Upon seeing his hand tremble slightly as he held the cotton bud, Nangong Lengyu frowned. She sat in front of him and snatched the cotton bud away. “I’ll do it!”
Ling Sheng’s lips curled up slightly. She was really a genius. Actually, based on her observation during this period, there was still a possibility that her father and mother could reconcile.
She had already thought about it carefully too. Instead of having an additional stepmother and stepfather, she might as well matchmake the two of them together instead!
On the television station’s side, although the station head and the chief director had been beaten up, no one dared say anything. They watched Huo Ci and the others leave with fear and trepidation.
Expose Huo Ci’s violent acts tonight? They had to have the guts to do that. They were all afraid of being retaliated against. Who would be willing to stand up for them?
Besides, even the people who had been beaten up had cowered. The station head had been beaten up so badly, but even when he left, he had ordered that no one was allowed to leak a word about what had happened tonight.
It was a little late, so Nangong Lengyu made the decision that Ling Sheng would not go to the Huo residence that night. She would stay at her place.
When they passed by the hospital, Nangong Lengyu called the car to a stop.
“Mom, I don’t have to. I’m completely fine. There’s really no need to do a check-up.” Ling Sheng looked at Nangong Lengyu, tears flowing in her heart. There was really no need to check! There’s no baby!
“It’s still better to go and check it out.” Nangong Lengyu looked at her stomach and reached out to touch it. “Otherwise, I’ll be worried.”
