Crushing Scum in the Spotlight

“I heard they have a good relationship.”

Lin Xiaoman curved her lips into a mocking smile, then began to cough weakly.

“Xiaoman, are you okay?” Huo Qizhi, standing next to her, noticed immediately, his face full of concern, “Let me take you to the hospital.”

“It’s nothing,” Lin Xiaoman had just spoken when she couldn’t help but cough again.

“Do you really not need to go to the hospital for a check-up?” Qian Yuan couldn’t bear to watch anymore.

Although he always thought minor illnesses should be endured, every time he saw Lin Xiaoman looking weak and uncomfortable, he felt even a cold was a major illness.

“You can go tonight and come back tomorrow at noon, shooting the later scenes in the morning.”

“Really, no need,” Lin Xiaoman shook her head, her tear-filled eyes from coughing looking even more pitiful, “I’m almost better, it’s really not serious.”

“It’s my fault, pulling you to shoot in the cold wind all day,” Huo Qizhi looked guilty, “Go back and rest, I’ll make you some lung-nourishing soup.”

Lin Xiaoman caught a glimpse of Xie XueEr approaching, and she just smiled slightly without responding.

“Qizhi,” Xie XueEr walked to Huo Qizhi’s side, “The shooting is over, right?”

Huo Qizhi only now noticed her, his tone indifferent: “Why are you here?”

“Didn’t we agree earlier that I would come see you? Have you forgotten?” Xie XueEr smiled, “It seems you’ve been working too hard, you’ve lost weight.”

Huo Qizhi didn’t respond. He looked at Lin Xiaoman, seeing her unconsciously hugging herself, and softly said, “It’s windy outside, go back first.”

Xie XueEr realized she was being ignored, but quickly put on a concerned look: “Xiaoman, are you feeling unwell? Remember to drink more hot water, it’s nothing serious.”

“Thank you for your concern, Teacher Xie,” Lin Xiaoman nodded to Xie XueEr and glanced at everyone. “I’ll go first then.”

As Lin Xiaoman turned, Xie XueEr seemed to catch a glimpse of a subtle mockery at the corner of her mouth. But when she tried to look closer, Lin Xiaoman had already left.

Just as Xi Xue’er was about to explain that their relationship was not ordinary, an unexpected “Ah” suddenly came from the kitchen, drawing everyone’s attention.
