I Become a Big Shot in Showbiz-Chapter 48 - Pain
Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Pain
“It’s about the matter with Li Xianghong. I did as you said and waited until the issue had fermented enough before I released the complete video. Now everyone online is starting to criticize Li Xianghong, calling her a green tea bitch. I plan to use a marketing account tomorrow to reveal the truth about what happened back then. By then, Li Xianghong and Lin Shuo won’t have any chance to turn things around. What do you think?”
“Handle the situation as you see fit.” She was taking action against Li Xianghong essentially for Zhai Yuewen, so whatever Zhai Yuewen wanted to do, she would support it.
“Alright, and…” Zhai Yuewen hesitated.
“Is there something else?”
“The internet is now buzzing with rumors that the Crown Prince of the Ji family has fallen ill because of you, and they say the Ji family will definitely not let you off. Are you okay?” Zhai Yuewen asked with some concern.

“I’m fine, really good, in fact. I’m hanging up now,” Mu Lingyun said nonchalantly.
“Okay, if you’re sure.”
Once Mu Lingyun heard Zhai Yuewen say it was alright, she immediately hung up the phone and quickly returned to the hospital room. She confirmed that Ji Luochen was still sleeping peacefully before she sat back down at the table to continue eating slowly.
After finishing her meal, she returned to lie beside the hospital bed, gazing at Ji Luochen’s handsome face.
Without realizing when, she fell asleep just like that, leaning over him.
She slept the whole night through.
When Ji Luochen opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Mu Lingyun, asleep at the edge of his bed.
He was startled for a while before he dared to touch her.
The girl’s face was soft and warm, vividly alive, truly her.
Ji Luochen felt a bit bewildered.
From the despair before his death in his past life, to the struggle to survive in this one for over a decade, he had long since given up hope of seeing her again.
But unexpectedly, she appeared.
So many years had passed, but upon seeing her again, the feeling was still the same.
And now, this scene of her sleeping beside his bed, was so similar to the first time he had clearly seen her face.
The only difference was, that time there were tears in her eyes.
Back then, it must have been the first time she had encountered someone so severely ill, and that’s why she had been crying out of anxiousness.
At that time, he had thought she was a bit of a fool.
Because of the image of her teary eyelashes, for a long time, he had been unwilling to admit that she was not a simple girl, until she stole the Imperial Seal, and he was forced to confront that fact.
Later, she used the Imperial Seal to recruit talented people, commanded a following, and engaged in battles, further proving her complexity.
Indeed, how could the girl he fancied be simple or ordinary?
Ji Luochen covered the girl’s eyes with his hand, feeling her eyelashes brush against the palm of his hand; he sighed softly, “Mumu, do you have any idea how willingly I’ve played the fool many times, just because of that single tear?”
Mu Lingyun felt a bit of an itch in her eyes and rubbed them, only to encounter a hand.
She woke up instantly.
Seeing that the girl was awake, Ji Luochen calmly pulled his hand back and spoke indifferently, “Mu Lingyun, is this how you take care of the sick? I’m awake, and you’re still asleep?”
It was then that Mu Lingyun remembered she was here to take care of Ji Luochen, and she quickly sat up straight, only to experience a sharp pain in her neck and back from lying in the same position for too long.
“Hiss—” She inhaled sharply, almost instinctively placing one hand on her neck and the other supporting her waist.
“What’s wrong?” Ji Luochen tried to keep his voice neutral as he asked.
“It hurts,” Mu Lingyun bit her lip and unconsciously blurted out the word.
