Chapter 1138: 1138 Heather of the Other Shore Flower Sea (162)
Qu Leqi awkwardly smiled and said, "Actually, it’s because I know a doctor here, so I asked him to prescribe
so dication directly."
"But you stayed at the hospital for more than an hour before leaving. How do you explain that?"
"Well..." Qu Leqi shifted her tone and said, "Actually, Mr. Nian is the investor in our drama series. He was injured and hospitalized, so it’s perfectly normal for
to visit him on behalf of our production team. I hope all of you dia friends will refrain from over-speculating, alright? We are just an investor and an actor, with an ordinary professional relationship—it’s not what you’re imagining."
This kind of explanation had long grown tireso in the entertainnt industry.
Typically, it’s not long before a romance surfaces after such statents.
"Then, may I ask—"
"My apologies, if you wish to interview Miss Qu, please relocate your inquiry, alright?" Heather couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped in to stop them. "This is a hospital; Mr. Nian is resting right now, and you cannot disturb him here."
"This is freedom of the press—"
"This is personal freedom!" Heather said assertively. "On behalf of Mr. Nian, I solemnly warn you: if you continue to disrupt his rest here, I’ll have to call the police."
"Hey!" A reporter hastily signaled the caraman to record, shouting, "Is Mr. Nian’s bodyguard going to hit people now? In plain view of everyone?"
Heather sneered and pointed at the surveillance cara on the wall behind them, saying, "Rest assured, if I really wanted to hit you, I’d certainly choose a place without caras."
The reporter quickly took a step back, feeling an undeniable intimidation from the formidable aura of the female bodyguard.
"Hey..." Suddenly, soone stepped forward and asked, "Excuse , are you Mr. Nian’s bodyguard?"
"I am."
"Why do I feel... you look a lot like Xiao Man..."
With that remark, chaos erupted.
Xiao Man had always been a volatile topic; wherever her na appeared, peace was never an option.
As soon as the comnt was made, everyone began scrutinizing Heather closely and unanimously agreed, "She really... does look alike!"
"Look, if you cover up half of her face, isn’t it basically Xiao Man?"
Heather hadn’t anticipated the focus shifting so abruptly. The reporters stopped caring about the person they originally intended to interrogate, Qu Leqi, and instead sward around Heather, who never wanted the spotlight.
"Excuse , did you undergo surgery to look like Xiao Man?"
"It can’t be, right? If soone were to alter their appearance to look like Xiao Man, why keep these two scars? It’d be easy to get scar removal surgery! Is this just how you were naturally born?"
"What’s your na? Are you related to Xiao Man by blood?"
A torrent of questions bombarded her.
Xiao Man had departed too abruptly, leaving people with endless curiosity about her. Now, with soone who bore an uncanny resemblance suddenly appearing, it naturally caused an uproar.
Heather was pushed back into the doorway. Suddenly, the door behind her opened.
The door had opened so abruptly—and since Heather’s body was leaning on it—the instant the force against her disappeared, she toppled backward.
With reporters crowding the space in front of her, there wasn’t even room for her to attempt a hand-flip. She could only fall backward.
At that mont, a hand reached around her waist and caught her, holding her steady.
Heather looked up, eting Nian Shen’s gaze. In that instant, she was captivated.
As soon as Nian Shen appeared, the focus shifted once again. Before the reporters could begin their barrage of questions, the door had already been decisively closed.
Click! The sound of the lock sliding into place echoed softly.
