Knock knock knock. The sound of knocking could be heard. Ling Xiaosu put down the book in her hands and said, ”Come in.”

The servant opened the door and entered, a cup of clear water in his hand and a bowl of porridge in his hands. ”Mister had specifically instructed me to ask the servant to boil some porridge for you, Miss Ling, for fear that your wound might have some sort of taboo.”

”Put it there first.” Ling Xiaosu took a look at the porridge. It was plain porridge.

”Then, Miss Ling, please enjoy.” The servant put down the porridge and a cup of water. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Ling Xiaosu called to him from behind, ”I have something to do, may I go out now?”

The servant turned around and was at a loss, ”Sir specifically warned Miss Ling that she is injured and cannot leave for the time being. She can only stay in her room to recuperate until she is well.”

It meant that she would stay in this room until the wound was completely healed.

Ling Xiaosu frowned as she looked at the servant, ”I'll be heading out to settle some matters. I'll be back soon.”

The servant still hesitated, ”Miss Ling, if you were to be discovered by mister, mister will not let me off so easily.”

”Rest assured, we will never be discovered by a heaven defying official. I will come back before he returns.” Ling Xiaosu promised the servant calmly.

The servant looked at the hope in Ling Xiaosu's eyes, and felt that Ling Xiaosu's words were very trustworthy. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded his head in agreement, ”I can let Miss Ling out, but Miss Ling needs to deal with the troubles and come back quickly.” If her husband blamed her, she couldn't afford it.

Ling Xiaosu got off the bed and quickly put on her clothes and shoes. ”I will!”

After saying that, Ling Xiaosu rushed down the stairs excitedly. Her lighthearted appearance did not appear to be at all like a wound on her back.

Ling Xiaosu, of course, called a taxi to the company. She had suffered severe injuries in the past few days, so the filming of the script obviously couldn't go on as scheduled. Therefore, she had to report back to Little An in advance.

Ling Xiaosu excitedly opened the door to Xiao An's office and was momentarily stunned.

Little An wasn't in the office, and Ling Xiaosu was stunned by the scene in front of her. Guo Qi was holding a thick piece of paper, her bright red nails tightly clutching the paper, her eyes filled with panic and surprise. She looked at Ling Xiaosu, seemingly not expecting that it would be Ling Xiaosu.

Moments later, Ling Xiaosu recovered from her shock and looked at Guo Qi with a puzzled expression, ”Why are you here?”

Guo Qi froze for a moment, then panicked a little. She slowly tightened her grip on the script, laughed dryly as she looked away, randomly explaining, ”I …” I came in to get something. ”

Take things? Ling Xiaosu sized Guo Qi up carefully, doubting the authenticity of her words, ”Take things? ”What is it?”

”I, I …” Guo Qi stammered, her eyes darting around. She stuttered for a long time, but she could not come up with a reasonable explanation.

In this way, Ling Xiaosu refused to believe Guo Qi's explanation of ”taking things”. He glanced at the script in Guo Qi's hand and asked, ”Why are you holding my script?”

This was the subject of her next online drama, which Zhao Wenjie had given her.

Guo Qi quickly put down the script in her hands and explained with a smile, ”I, I was just looking at it. I must be really curious.”

With that said, Guo Qi looked at Ling Xiaosu and said, ”I've seen all of the directors' screenplays in the company. You won't be so stingy as to fuss over such a small online movie, right?”
