MTL - The Actress is My Favorite-Chapter 2
Xia Shutong sat on the bed, obediently listening to Qian Lingling like a kindergarten student.
Qian Lingling said that her name was Xia Shutong, she was twenty-seven years old, she was the granddaughter of the chairman of the Xia Group, and she grew up abroad.
Qian Lingling also said that she has a younger brother and an older sister. The younger brother is an illegitimate son who has become a regular son. According to ancient sayings, he is a bastard. My sister was adopted by the family.
But Xia Shutong vaguely remembered that she grew up in the slums of Yuncheng. She had no father, let alone brothers and sisters. Mother Wang Xiaoning owed a large sum of money due to illness, and finally died on the hospital bed.
After that... At the age of ten, she became an orphan, hiding in the dark corners of the slums every day, worrying about her livelihood.
And then what?
Can't remember at all.
And in my memory, her name is not Xia Shutong, but Xia...
Xia... Xia what?
can not recall.
Xia Shutong is much more awake than when she just woke up, at least she no longer thinks that she is a ten-year-old child. Therefore, she can clearly judge that she has amnesia now.
But she found that what she forgot was not only the recent events, even when she was a child, she only remembered a few fragments.
Qian Lingling talked a lot, and then introduced herself again: "I am your secretary and personal assistant, you can call me Xiaoqian... Do you know what secretary means?"
"I seem to know." Xia Shutong hesitated.
When Qian Lingling mentioned the word "secretary", information about the company's system and employee levels flooded into her mind like a flood.
Secretary, president, director, Xia Group, Wutong Pictures, Tianjun Media...
The memory seemed to be awakened a little bit again.
Qian Lingling observed Xia Shutong's expression carefully, and gradually breathed a sigh of relief.
When she first found out that Xiao Xia had always lost her memory, Qian Lingling was still afraid that she really didn't remember anything.
As a result, after chatting for a while, Qian Lingling gradually realized that her family Xiao Xia just couldn't remember people and things clearly, but as long as she mentioned the basic common sense, Xiao Xia could immediately remember it.
Qian Lingling continued: "There are two most important companies under the Xia Group, one is Tianjun Media, and the other is Wutong Films. Although you are the president of the former, you only own 5% of the shares. Xia Dong—that is, your grandfather’s. You have 70% of the shares in the latter. Do you understand?”
shares...
Another unfamiliar but familiar word.
Xia Shutong closed her eyes and thought about it for a while, then nodded.
"Okay." Qian Lingling's tone became more serious, "The reason why you are here is because you had a car accident at six o'clock this morning. At that time, you just came back from a business trip in Guizhou and drove home alone. Got rear-ended by a big truck on the highway."
"Six o'clock this morning?" Xia Shutong asked, "What time is it?"
"It's nine o'clock in the evening, and you've been in a coma for nearly fifteen hours. During this time, the doctor has checked you. Apart from some...damage to your brain, you have no other problems with your body."
Qian Lingling hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say what the doctor said "may become a fool".
But she added cautiously: "Do you feel unwell?"
"No..." Xia Shutong shook her head, "I'm just a little dizzy."
"That's good." Qian Lingling continued, "At present, it seems that you just have a little memory loss, and it's not too serious."
…Well, Qian Lingling has no research on amnesia, but I feel that my Xiaoxia can always say that she can go, and her ability to accept is quite strong, but she just can’t remember people a little bit, and her personality has just become softer That's all.
Well, just a little bit, that's all. It shouldn't be serious... right?
Xia Shutong blinked in confusion, but still nodded.
Qian Lingling let out a long breath, and said seriously as if reporting work:
"Mr. Xia, since there is no problem, we will leave the hospital as soon as possible. During this period, please don't let anyone notice that you have amnesia, including the doctor. After you leave the hospital, I will contact your personal doctor to treat you, is that okay?" ?”
"Yes." Xia Shutong said softly, "But...why?"
Qian Lingling: "Because I suspect that the car accident that caused your amnesia was not accidental, but someone did it on purpose. There are many eyes staring at you, for example... Do you remember what I said just now, you are Wutong And the president of Tianjun? Also, you have a sister and a brother."
Xia Shutong: "I remember."
Qian Lingling tried to explain: "Three years ago, your father was seriously ill, and you only got the management right of Tianjun at that time. But after that, your father has always wanted to take back the company and hand it over to your brother. As for Wutong , Originally, you and your sister each held half of the shares, until two years ago, her shares were diluted to 10% by you, so she has been eyeing Wutong."
Of course, apart from Xia Yuansi and Xia Hongye, there are too many people who want to attack Xia Shutong. After all, her family Xiao Xia's behavior style is really... making countless enemies.
After confirming that Mr. Xia understood, Qian Lingling continued: "I'm still not sure who planned the car accident, but now, your situation is very dangerous, and there may be someone else's eyeliner in the hospital. Therefore, you must not let Others have noticed that something is wrong with you."
She paused, her voice sank: "Otherwise... your life may be threatened again."
In other words, Xia Shutong is now like a lamb on the cutting board. The knife hanging over her head could fall down at any time.
Hearing this, Xia Shutong shivered unconsciously.
Looking at the shivering Ruannuo Xiaozong Xia shivering under the blanket, Qian Lingling was silent for a moment, her nose became sore again.
"Mr. Xia... It would be fine if I didn't ask for leave when you went on a business trip to Guicheng..."
Xia Shutong was frightened and confused, but at this moment, she instinctively stuck her head out from under the quilt, and comforted, "It's okay, I don't blame you."
Qian Lingling looked like a girl in her teens. If she was by her side, it would probably be the two of them lying on the hospital bed now.
After hesitating for a moment, Xia Shutong asked again: "How old are you?"
Qian Lingling looked too young, and Xia Shutong couldn't help but wonder if she had opened a black-hearted enterprise that hired child labor.
"Twenty-four years old." Seeing Xia Shutong's worry, Qian Lingling could not help but smile, "I have graduated for two years, and I have been by your side since my sophomore internship, so you don't have to worry about it. "
Qian Lingling tightly clenched her fist behind her back.
When she was at a loss, it was Mr. Xia who got her a hand. Mr. Xia has been taking care of her and protecting her these years, so she must, must protect Mr. Xia well.
"Oh..." Xia Shutong nodded.
She couldn't explain why, but she instinctively felt kind and familiar with Qian Lingling, but she couldn't even talk about trusting her.
She has lost her memory, and the only person she can rely on at the moment is Qian Lingling, but that doesn't mean she can trust herself to Qian Lingling.
As Qian Lingling said, she is in a very dangerous situation now.
So... No matter how scared she is, she still needs to have her own thinking and weighing.
Xia Shutong vaguely remembered that this was the truth her mother taught her.
Xia Shutong thought for a while, and then asked: "So, next, I have to pretend that I don't have amnesia? But, I don't remember what I was like before."
"I will collect video and text materials for you, but... it may be too late now." Qian Lingling glanced at the phone screen, hesitated to speak.
Xia Shutong tilted her head: "?"
"That's... your brother Xia Yuansi, he will arrive at the hospital in twenty minutes at most. It's too late to find information now, you only have two choices now, first, pretend that you are still in a coma, and I will hold Xia Yuansi back. Second, Pretend you don't have amnesia."
Speaking of this, Qian Lingling also felt a little guilty. She made all kinds of preparations, but she never expected that Mr. Xia would lose his memory.
Xia Shutong frowned slightly, and instinctively wanted to analyze which option was the best solution, but her head hurt so badly that she couldn't think of anything.
Finally she asked, "How do you think I should choose?"
"Pretend you don't have amnesia. Do you need me to analyze it for you?" Seeing Mr. Xia nodded, Qian Lingling explained, "After Xia Yuansi finds out that your state is not right, he will definitely take the opportunity to take action. But if you are awake, They don't dare to do anything behind their back anyway."
Xia Shutong blinked in a daze, how did you say she was scary?
"Okay, then... the second choice." Xia Shutong thought for a moment, and said firmly.
But as soon as the words came out, she regretted a little.
According to Qian Lingling, Xia Yuansi is her half-brother. In just 20 minutes, can she really perform flawlessly without being noticed by Xia Yuansi?
"You don't have to worry, you just need to dismiss Xia Yuansi a little and drive him away as you did before." Qian Lingling comforted.
As for what Mr. Xia was like in the eyes of others...
vicious? fierce? abnormal? Cold-blooded and cruel? play hard? Xia Devil?
Qian Lingling pondered for two seconds, and finally choked out a slightly neutral word:
"That's right, you used to be... quite aggressive towards Xia Yuansi. If you really don't know what to say to him, just ignore him with a cold face. He has always been afraid of you, so he shouldn't be able to notice any problems."
"You mean, I'm fierce? The kind that scares my younger brother?" Xia Shutong raised her head slightly, and some fragments flashed in her mind.
When I was a child, my family was poor and there was no TV, so she often squatted at the window and peeked at the TV set of the neighbor’s house across the street.
She likes watching TV dramas very much, and occasionally she dances and dances, imagining that she is a character in it, and secretly acting along.
At that time, my mother was not yet sick, and she would laugh and clap her hands and praise her "Nannan's acting is good".
At that time, her favorite TV series was "Huan Zhu Ge Ge", her favorite character was the innocent, lively and kind little swallow, and of course the most hated one was the vicious and vicious queen.
But hearing what Qian Lingling said, how does Xia Shutong feel...the self before amnesia is like a queen?
"Well...Xiao Qian, is it time to turn on the TV and play "My Fair Princess" now?"
"Well, it's too late." Mr. Xia said, Qian Lingling nodded subconsciously, and walked quickly to open the set-top box.
In the next second, her expression became weird.
Qian Lingling: "Huh???"
Did she hear correctly? Return the Pearl?
…
After hearing from the doctor that Xia Shutong was in a coma in a car accident, and even if he woke up, he might become a fool, Xia Yuansi put down his work and rushed to the hospital without stopping.
If it is true... the father has no other sons, Tianjun's right to inherit must belong to him, and even Wutong can come to him.
The corner of Xia Yuansi's mouth curled into a smug and sinister smile.
However, when he reached the door of the ward, Xia Yuansi reflexively put away his smile, and his fingers began to tremble uncontrollably.
Fuck, be afraid of a fart! He is Xia Shutong's only younger brother, so it's only natural to visit her when she's sick, so what's there to be afraid of? What's more, the current Xia Shutong might be a fool.
Xia Yuansi calmed down, raised his hand and knocked on the door of the ward.
After the door was opened, the first thing Xia Yuansi heard was the deafening sound of the TV.
