Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

Jiang Shiyue's face darkened, and he immediately yelled at his men, "Get those idiots out of here! What are they yelling about? They're just making trouble!"

The people below looked troubled: "There are too many of them, and they are all die-hard fans of that hostage. They are young and don't listen to commands at all. They are completely out of control!"

Jiang Shiyue didn't have the patience. Just then, the bandit lost control and the knife cut the hostage's neck uncontrollably, leaving a trickle of blood.

Jiang Shiyue cursed and snatched the megaphone: "Shut up, all of you! If you want your idol to live, shut up! If you say another word and the person can't be saved, you'll all be accomplices!"

Now all the fans dared not say anything more, firstly because they were afraid that something really happened to their idol, and secondly because they were genuinely afraid that this wasn't a movie.

It was a real hostage situation that actually occurred.

Zhou Liwan followed Jiang Shiyue to the front and said, "Brother, let's talk things out. Why take hostages? What's the big problem? Tell me."

The thug spat viciously and yelled, "Bullshit! You're all the same! All the same! If I hadn't taken this kid hostage today, would you be so calm and reasonable with me? Stop with the pretense!"

Jiang Shiyue frowned when he saw that the other party was not buying his act at all, and said, "Then just say what your demands are! I don't think you went to all this trouble to take a hostage just to kill him to vent your anger, right? If that were the case, you would have done it already, wouldn't you?"

The surrounding fans' hearts jumped into their throats instantly, and the handsome young man with rosy lips and white teeth was so nervous that he was stiff all over and buried his head in his hands.

He looked so disheveled, a far cry from his glamorous appearance on stage.

The bandit laughed loudly, "Stop with your self-righteous analysis! I'm going to kill this bastard! Not only will I kill him, I'll slash his face so he can use that face to kill people again!"

[If it weren't for his words, how could my sister have lost the new heart she should have received! Because he acted first, she wouldn't have been left to die there because of the exorbitant hospital bills!]

Zhou Liwan's eyes were deep. She tugged at Jiang Shiyue's arm, signaling him to give her the loudspeaker.

Jiang Shiyue's gaze was complicated, but seeing Zhou Liwan's determined eyes, he still handed her the megaphone and whispered a reminder: "Be careful."

What he actually meant was to be careful not to provoke the criminals. With so many people around, if she said the wrong thing and it led to a tragedy, the gossip from the outside world would crush her instantly.

Zhou Liwan smiled gently and comforted him with her eyes.

"Don't get agitated. I bet you've suffered a lot because of your status as a hostage, haven't you?"

When the bandit saw the girl in front of him, her gentleness revealed her concern for him, as if she were not faking it, she could see his suffering at a glance.

The bandit trembled slightly, but gritted his teeth and said firmly, "So what if he is, so what if he isn't? I'm going to kill him!"

Zhou Liwan took a few steps forward subtly: "I looked around, and our First People's Hospital is only 500 meters away. You chose this area, so I guess you have family members inside, right?"

Jiang Shiyue immediately arranged for someone to investigate at the hospital.

The bandit's mind flashed back to that pale, thin face, and his heart ached. It was his Xiaoli, his only sister in the world.

"If it weren't for this person's words, how could the hospital have given that only heart to his fan without his permission! My sister queued for so long, waited for so long! Just because of this person's words, does she deserve to die?"

Zhou Liwan was somewhat moved, and her voice choked up a little: "I really envy your sister so much, having a brother who is willing to give his life for her."

The thug looked at Zhou Liwan, and for a moment he seemed to see his own sister. He uncontrollably let down his guard and started talking more: "It's my good fortune to be her brother. If it weren't for her, I would have died long ago. So I can't live without her. I thought that after my sister got her heart transplant, we siblings could start a new life, but... but..."

"Boss, the hospital said it's true, and that person's sister is still alive, but if they don't find a new heart soon, she won't last much longer."

Zhou Liwan felt sad. She subconsciously looked up at the hospital building not far away. She seemed to see the figure of a girl in the ward, looking curiously in this direction.

"Brother, I understand your pain, but I think if I were your sister, knowing that my brother did such a thing for me, I would feel very guilty. I would feel like I was the culprit, and even if I got a new heart, I wouldn't be able to live happily in this world!"

The bandit was so excited that tears streamed down his face: "I don't care about anything else, I don't care about anything else! Tell her that her brother is useless! He has no money! He can't save her!"

In her excitement, Zhou Liwan blurted out, "I'm willing to save her! I'm willing!"

The man froze, and his grip on the knife loosened slightly.

Seeing this, the special police seized the opportunity and rushed forward to subdue the person.

The prisoner offered no resistance throughout, only staring intently at Zhou Liwan. Before being led away, he roared at her, "Are you willing to save my sister? Are you willing?!"

Feeling saddened, Zhou Liwan quickly stepped forward and stopped her group of special police colleagues: "Let me say a few words to him, just a few words."

The group exchanged glances, then noticed Director Ma not far away and nodded silently.

"Then hurry up."

Zhou Liwan bowed gratefully, then quickly said to the bandit, "I will help your sister find the newest heart and pay all her medical bills, but I also hope you can promise me that you will not do this kind of thing again. Since you two are the only family left in this world, I think you should cherish each other even more, right?"

The bandit nodded vigorously, tears welling in his eyes so thick he could barely see his benefactor.

In the end, he didn't see clearly before being taken into a car by the special police.

The surrounding fans erupted in thunderous cheers upon seeing their idol finally rescued.

Because the person kidnapped was a popular young male celebrity in China, many media outlets naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity, and many even broadcast it live.

The young heartthrob was quickly taken to the hospital. This incident did not cause his career to plummet; instead, it increased his fans' love for him.

The reason was that he suffered this undeserved misfortune because of his fans, which moved the fans deeply.

Zhou Liwan was sitting in a barbecue restaurant with her colleagues when she heard this statement, and she was speechless.

Young girls these days...

Bai Gu was holding his phone, looking at it for a while, when he suddenly stood up and excitedly shouted at Zhou Liwan, "Sister Wanwan, you're famous now, you know that? My God, you're incredibly famous!"

Curious, everyone took out their phones to find out.

It was only then that we realized part of the reason was that fans were grateful to Zhou Liwan for saving their brother, and the other part was that netizens were praising her stunning beauty and angelic kindness.

Everyone praised her for her keen observation skills, which allowed her to quickly grasp the bandits' true purpose.

In this new era, a person's rise to fame can happen almost instantly.

At that moment, several other tables in the barbecue restaurant spotted Zhou Liwan and started secretly taking pictures of her.

This made Zhou Liwan feel a little embarrassed.

I ate a few bites and then left.

However, she was unaware that the moment Mr. Wang opened the car door for her was captured on camera.

Her identity as the granddaughter of the Jiang family was quickly revealed.

The Jiang family's shares also increased significantly. As a result, the Zhou family also received substantial dividends.
