Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

Yin Fengzhu merely inquired politely about the doctor Li Dai's injuries. After learning that the person could be saved, he exchanged a few more polite words with Zheng Yuxiu, who looked unwell, in the room before leaving with He Zhongtian.

Bo Bing stared in the direction the two had gone, lost in thought.

What exactly is this woman doing here?

—Just for the sake of those two sentences, you'd drive all that way to see Li Dai?

Or is there something I've overlooked? Would winning over a pharmaceutical company that's barely started be such an important thing for Yin Fengzhu that he has to give me a heads-up on the side?

Bo Bing shook her head and walked into the ward.

Let's take it one step at a time. In any case, the fact that Li Laosan didn't fail to be saved is already the best outcome.

Li Dai lay on the bed with a breathing mask on his face and tubes inserted all over his body.

"It's Xiaobing."

Zheng Yuxiu sat by Li Dai's bedside, her eyes red and somewhat dejected. "Sit down. I just contacted Xiaoyun and his mother. This is such a big matter, we all need to discuss it."

Bo Bing frowned. "What did the doctor say?"

Zheng Yuxiu sighed, "The rescue was timely, but it's uncertain when he will wake up. The director said it will take at least four or five days."

“Then the situation should be pretty good,” Bo Bing said, leaning closer to the hospital bed, a glint of blue light flashing in her eyes.

[Yongquan - External Treatment] activated. Treatment effect reduced by 50%.

A cold electronic sound sounded.

"Xiao Bing... for Xiao Yun and Yu Mei's sake, I'll ask you a favor on Xiao Yuan's behalf..."

Zheng Yuxiu's voice was a little hoarse. Bo Bing turned around and saw the woman stand up and about to kneel on the ground.

"Aunt Yuxiu!"

Bo Bing was startled and quickly grabbed Zheng Yuxiu.

The young man grabbed Zheng Yuxiu's arm, "What are you doing?! Speak slowly."

Zheng Yuxiu took the tissue that Bo Bing handed her and wiped away the tears that she finally couldn't hold back.

"Since you call me 'Auntie,' then I'll take the liberty of addressing you as an elder."

Zheng Yuxiu tucked her hair behind her ear, her voice gradually calming down, "You've probably noticed the problem with what happened today. The rumors about the third brother aren't unfounded; he was used by the new city lord as a target to deal with Zhi Yu... The current stalemate between the two sides has inevitably been broken, and it's unclear how Zhi Yu will respond..."

"Lord Yin brought me here today," Bo Bing said, knowing this as well. She briefly told Zheng Yuxiu what had happened in the car. "I find it strange that she would make a special trip to see me. If she said it was to win me over, that would be giving me too much credit."

Yin Fengzhu came here to check on Li Dai's situation and Zheng Yuxiu's attitude.

Zheng Yuxiu's eyes were calm. "This is far from over. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered, let alone Zhi Yu. This time, Lord Yin Feng has pushed him too far. He has lost both face and substance. His underlings will probably gossip about him. Putting aside whether he can keep his position as the boss, even if it's just to divert attention, he will drag someone down with him."

"You mean... someone else might still try to harm Uncle Xiaoyun?" Bo Bing frowned. "Now that he's in this state, is there any need for them to make a move?"

However, he also knew that if it really came down to revenge, it would be a fight to the death.

What a mess.

—Nothing can be cut without a sharp blade.

"To be honest, Xiao Bing."

Zheng Yuxiu clenched her fists and looked at Bo Bing, "Do you believe it? A woman's sixth sense. I can feel that after Lao San's accident, I'll be next."

Bo Bing looked at Zheng Yuxiu, her eyes revealing an inexplicable determination.

"The harm done to his wife and children should not be extended," Bo Bing glanced at Li Dai, "Even if he wanted revenge..."

But he suddenly stopped talking. Now, even he wasn't sure, after all, there were countless bloody precedents.

“It’s different,” Zheng Yuxiu said with a wry smile. “This invitation is ostensibly for me, but do you know why I’m bringing Lao San and Xiao Yuan along?”

The key point.

Upon hearing this, Bo Bing understood and her tone grew colder, "Li Laosan is the target, Li Yuan is the hostage, and the real 'witness'... is you, am I right?"

For an industrialists' conference, of course, Zheng Yuxiu, the boss, should be invited. Inviting Li Laosan was already quite unusual, and bringing Li Yuan along would be a blatant threat.

Lord Yin Feng, this woman is so cunning!

He only told half of what he meant in the car, and every word he said was the truth, so he wasn't afraid of being guessed. If I hadn't talked to Zheng Yuxiu today, I wouldn't have known the truth.

"Auntie knows you have the ability; you were the one who rescued Zhou Tao's son before. So I want to ask you... to protect Xiaoyuan for a while. I will transfer all the expenses during this period to you and give you some more money."

Zheng Yuxiu was afraid he would disagree, "It's almost the New Year, so let her go back to her hometown with Xiaoyun. Lao Si's daughter is there too, so let them have fun on their own. As long as they're not in the new city, it won't be a big problem. Zhi Yu and the city lord will definitely reach a conclusion after the New Year."

Bo Bing frowned, stood up, and said, "I understand. Zheng Yuxiu had helped my factory a lot before, so I had no reason to refuse, both publicly and privately."

"Thank you, Xiaobing... I'll write up the remittance slip for you in a bit."

A noisy commotion came from the corridor.

You could tell it was Li Feng's loud voice, reciting the ward number.

Zheng Yuxiu stood up. "Fourth brother and Yumei should be here by now. When you go back, just take Xiaoyuan with you."

"What about you?"

Bo Bing turned around and saw the woman shaking her head at her.

it is more than words.

When the third brother encountered this situation, no one knew what to do.

Zheng Yuxiu didn't go into too much detail, only saying that someone wanted to harm Li Dai.

Seeing Li Dai like this, the others could only worry helplessly. The third brother and Zheng Yuxiu were the most capable people they knew, and even they couldn't solve this problem. How could the others help?

With the Lunar New Year approaching, this kind of thing is hard for anyone to bear.

on the way back.

Li Yuan's eyes were red, and she huddled in Li Yumei's arms like a little rabbit, crying. Bo Yuntian gently comforted the girl beside her.

As Li Feng shifted gears, he muttered curses under his breath, saying that the person who caused trouble for Lao San was a complete scoundrel. The old Wuling Hongguang's gear lever rattled loudly as he pulled it.

Thin ice seemed to be in a daze.

On the lit screen of the phone, a message from someone was displayed.

[Flower] Godfather, are you busy? [Little wolf peeking out.jpg]

[Flower] Where will you spend the Chinese New Year this year?

This was a message sent by Yin Su before and after Li Dai's incident; Bo Bing didn't have time to reply to him at the time.

The internal strife within the Flower family intensifies.

[Flower] Sorry, I have to go back to Beijing this year.

This is a message that Yin Su just sent.

Bo Bing tapped and banged on his hands, but didn't send it for a long time.

The young man in the passenger seat rested his chin on his hand, his dark eyes gazing at the receding streetlights, lost in thought.
