Mother Ling told her to lie on the bed and not to move around. She gave her some soup and said, "Here, drink some soup. It's specially used to replenish your vital energy and blood."

"Thank you, Mom." Ling Xiaosu took it, drank a bowl, and was unable to continue eating.

When she found the script, her heart was at ease. She felt very tired, but she could not sleep. While her mother was out, she took out her phone and called the heaven defying official.

He quickly picked it up. "Hey, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

Hearing his low and sexy voice, Ling Xiaosu felt an itch in her heart, like a kitten scratching. "It's fine now. Oh, that role selection thing from today's movie."

"It's been delayed. What is your body recovering to begin with?" The heaven defying official said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Ling Xiaosu felt warm inside as she asked, "Are you hurt?"

After she blocked that pole, she did not know anything. She did not hear anything that the heaven defying official said.

"I'm fine." "Rest well, I'll come see you later."

Ling Xiaosu nodded, "Alright."

Before her mother came in, she hung up the phone and laid down on her bed to rest. Upon hearing that a heaven defying official was coming to visit her, she had been anticipating it from the moment she hung up the phone. She didn't know why, but she really wanted to see him at this moment.

After suffering for more than three hours, the figure of the heaven defying official finally appeared in front of her. When Ling Xiaosu saw him, her eyes immediately lit up. "You're here."

"Yes." "Yes." The heaven defying official replied and asked in a low voice, "How do you feel?" He then placed the rose on the cabinet beside the bed.

"It's fine, it doesn't hurt at all." Ling Xiaosu shook her head and smiled, "It's good that you're here, why did you bring flowers?"

"Of course." "Do you know who tied you up?"

"I don't know, I don't know any of those three people." Ling Xiaosu recalled that person's appearance. There was no such person in her memories.

The heaven defying official was silent for a while, and then he said, "Don't worry, I will find out about this matter. I will not let you get injured for nothing."

"Yes, I believe you." Ling Xiaosu laughed.

If she had known that his initial encounter with her was a profitable one, he wondered if she would have trusted him this much, and would even have smiled at him in such a way.

Ling Xiaosu had been in the hospital for almost a month, and her body was going to get moldy. After all, she had to get her mother's consent to let her leave the hospital. If she stayed any longer, she would really go crazy.

These days, Mother Ling had cooked a lot of delicious food. Ling Xiaosu rubbed her round belly as she lamented. She really couldn't eat too much, otherwise she would just get fatter.

After a day or two of rest, she called the defying official and told him that she could begin the selection process for the male and female protagonists of the movie "Zero Happiness." The defying official nodded in agreement and told her that she was ready to notify him of the time and place.

With someone doing a good job, Ling Xiaosu was naturally content. She believed in defying the will of the heavens. Oh right, he saved her this time. How should she thank him? This was truly a troublesome matter.

She had called him in the morning, and he had informed her that he would be at the office tomorrow at nine o'clock. She nodded in agreement.

"Rest well," ordered the heaven defying official in a low voice.

"Mm, okay, then go back to work." Ling Xiaosu reluctantly hung up the phone.

When his mother came in, she saw her daughter giggling with her cellphone and thought that something was wrong. She hurriedly put down what she was doing and walked over. "Xiaoxiao, what are you doing? Are you alright?"

"Ah, Mom, you're back. I'm fine." Ling Xiaosu stood up from the sofa and grabbed Mother Ling's arm as she said coquettishly, "Mom, it's been hard on you. I'll go cook dinner for you."

"Mom's fine. As long as you're fine, no matter how hard I work, it's worth it." Mother Ling lovingly patted the back of her hand.

"Yeah, Mom." Ling Xiaosu sniffled as she felt that she had let down her mother. She was already this old yet she was still worrying about it, "Rest well today. I'll cook and just wait for dinner."

"Alright, alright, I'll be waiting." Mother Ling answered with a smile.

Ling Xiaosu went to the kitchen and prepared dinner. Her cooking skills were quite good and she had been specially trained by the system in the past.

These days, she had eaten too much meat. The food she cooked was relatively light, but the food she prepared for her mother was still very sumptuous.

After dinner, Ling Xiaosu accompanied her mother to watch TV for a while before going to bed. She also woke up very early the next day to prepare breakfast. In the past, it had always been Mother Ling who was doing it. She had rested for a long time these past few days, so she wanted Mother Ling to have a good rest.

As she was doing this, she could not help but think of going against the will of the heavens, not knowing if he had eaten or not. Thinking of this, she felt that it would be fine if she could prepare an extra serving for him.

Mother Ling got up. Ling Xiaosu had already finished preparing breakfast and was preparing to leave.

"Xiaoxiao, where did you go so early?" Mother Ling asked worriedly.

"Mom, I went out to settle some matters, you don't have to worry." Ling Xiaosu hid the lunchbox in her hand, changed her shoes, and hurried out.

Mother Ling looked at her back, helplessly shaking her head, "This child."

Ling Xiaosu took a taxi to Jiuyu Media company, and sent a message to the heaven defying official on the way, asking if he was in the company.

The heaven defying official did not reply. When Ling Xiaosu arrived at the entrance of the company, he called, "You're here, I'm on my way."

"Yeah, I just arrived too." Looking at the lunchbox in his hand, he bit his lips and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Nope." he whispered.

Hearing him say no, Ling Xiaosu felt a surge of joy in her heart. She said, "That's great, I brought you some food. I'll be waiting for you at the company."

"Yes!" the heaven defying official replied in a low voice.

Ling Xiaosu hung up the phone, not knowing that she was smiling like a fool. People around her turned their heads to look at her as they passed by, and she was so lost in her own fantasy that she didn't notice at all.

Zhao Wenjie knew about the relationship between Ling Xiaosu and the Heaven defying official, so he brought her directly to his office. "Miss Ling, please take a seat. I'll be right there."

"Thank you." Ling Xiaosu nodded and smiled at him.

"You're welcome." Zhao Wenjie politely replied with a smile before turning around and leaving the office.

Ling Xiaosu sat on the sofa and looked around the office. The last time she was here, she was too focused on discussing things and did not take them seriously. The decorations in the office were quite simple and they were rare, but the valuables were real.

A message entered her phone. She thought it was from a heaven defying official, but when she opened it, she found that it was from a stranger. "Xiaoxiao, I saw a person's back looking like you at the company. You came to the company?"

Ling Xiaosu looked at it for a while and vaguely guessed who it was. She had blacklisted Xu Yan, but she did not expect him to send her a text message using someone else's phone. She deleted it after reading it and was too lazy to care about it.

It was an unfamiliar number. Ling Xiaosu felt that Yan Xu Yan had not picked up, so she decided to switch off her phone, but when she thought of what her mother had said, she retreated and picked up the phone. The voice from the other side replied, "Xiaoxiao, I know you're at the company, so come down to see me immediately. I'll be waiting for you at the same place."
