“That’s right,” said Huang Guoqiang, his face carefully blank.

Xu Xiyan turned to the woman in the hospital bed and said with genuine concern, “What about you, Ms. Qi? Are you feeling better? These flowers are for you.”

“Much better. Thanks.”

Qi Liya accepted the flowers. She inhaled the floral fragrance, and smiled.

She had not broken any of her bones, but a nail on the set had punctured her lung. She would have to stay in the hospital for a while.

Xu Xiyan was relieved to see Qi Liya looking alert and otherwise healthy.

She turned around and saw that there was already a bouquet of roses in the vase on the bedside table. She knew at once who had brought them.

She said teasingly, “Oh my, looks like someone already brought you roses! Let me see, there must be at least 99 roses in there. Who are they from?”

Peng Sicheng had set up camp in Qi Liya’s heart while he, Huang Guoqiang, was likely nothing more than an insignificant passerby. That thought alone was enough to stoke the flames of an indescribable anger within Huang Guoqiang.

He grabbed his coat from the sofa and said, visibly unhappy, “Please excuse me, Little Qi. I have to return to the set, there are a few things I need to attend to.”

“All right. Take care, Director Huang,” said Qi Liya politely.

Huang Guoqiang almost coughed up a mouthful of blood. Come on, he thought, I said I’m leaving! Can’t you at least pretend to be sorry to see me go?

Huang Guoqiang was already at the door and about to step out of the room when he suddenly remembered something. He turned around to say, “Oh, I almost forgot. Jing Xi, if you’re free today or tomorrow, please report to the set. We have to shoot a few in-program ads with you.”

“Oh, okay. I’m free this afternoon, I’ll look for you once I’m done here.”

After Huang Guoqiang had left, Xu Xiyan turned to ask Qi Liya: “They’re shooting the in-program ads already? Does that mean they’re almost done filming?”

“It’s pretty much done.”

“When’s it showing on TV?”

“Soon, actually! Director Huang will continue shooting new episodes as the show airs. It’ll be showing on CCTV during prime time, and he wants to see how well the show does in ratings before deciding how long he wants the show to run for.”
