“Dad, I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’m calling you precisely because I’m safe now.” When Yun Xiangxiang just woke up, she did not dare to call Yun Zhibin. After all, just by hearing her soft voice, anyone could tell that she was very weak at that time. “Dad, I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’m calling you precisely because I’m safe now.” When Yun Xiangxiang just woke up, she did not dare to call Yun Zhibin. After all, just by hearing her soft voice, anyone could tell that she was very weak at that time.
“Thank god you’re fine. Mom and I originally wanted to come and find you, but according to Doctor Song, the place you’re in right now isn’t exactly very convenient for visits. Don’t worry about the cast and crew here. Doctor Song had already called Director Lim and explained your current situation to him.” Yun Zhibin comforted her. Listening to his daughter’s voice, he assumed that she had no significant problems.
“I know that you and mom are waiting for me in Hong Kong. After my body recovers, I’ll come back.” Yun Xiangxiang replied.
“Hold on, your mother and brother wants to speak to you...”
Yun Xiangxiang patiently listened to the Su Xiuling’s nagging and Yun Lin talking about his daily life. Before hanging up, she also heard Yun Ting’s voice. She smiled and hung up. “Let’s go back.”
This blood donation incident had exceeded the range of her acceptance. She wanted to contact Song Meng to ask him about something.
She hoped that her family would not be affected after this incident, and they would be able to live happily and freely, just like their life now.
When Yun Xiangxiang reached the block she had been staying at, she saw a few military-used vehicles with one being very specially designed. When she wanted to walk to the ward, she was blocked by a group of armymen by the stairs.
She could only find a spot to sit down to wait. After about half an hour, a man around the age of fifty walked out. He was wearing a military uniform as well, but he had a general rank badge attached to it.
Yun Xiangxiang silently took a breath.
Apparently, the Song Family was quite extraordinary with nothing much in conflict with the legends told. Otherwise, how could a person of such high rank come and visit him in person himself.

Beside him was his secretary, which was a youth in a suit. Yun Xiangxiang knew that his name was Song Yao.
After taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Yun Xiangxiang walked towards Song Mian.
Song Yao looked at her and smiled, which implied that he was not stopping her from advancing.
Standing in front of the table, Yun Xiangxiang spurted out, “Can I change a ward?”
After spurting out her words, Yun Xiangxiang felt like slapping herself. She didn’t intend to say that. How could she be so weak?
“What’s the reason?” Song Mian’s voice was really sweet.
It was like the sound of a jade, soft and steady just like a good wine. It causes one to feel drunk and dazzled.
“It’s... it’s not very convenient...” Yun Xiangxiang just gave a reason that sounded legitimate.
Song Mian’s fingers did not stop, but he held his head up and used his pair of alluring dark-purplish eyes to look at Yun Xiangxiang. “Please put up with it for a few more days. It’s all for your safety’s concern.”
Yun Xiangxiang was only looking at Song Mian, and did not notice how Song Yao raised his brows because he felt shocked. He quickly looked at Song Mian.
However, after listening to what Shu Yun had said, Yun Xiangxiang did not doubt his words at all. “Mr. Song, I want to know if I will have any safety problems in the future.”
“Theoretically, no,” Song Mian answered, “I will send someone to protect you behind the scene.”
Yun Xiangxiang frowned. She didn’t like the feeling of being watched.
“I’m sorry for the inconvenience that I brought upon you.” Song Mian was very observant, and understood Yun Xiangxiang’s reluctance instantly. “Based on what I know, you are a public figure. You will eventually want to hire bodyguards.”
Song Mian was right about this point. She was not very famous now, and had no big enemies or a huge fanbase. Coco alone was enough to protect her. However, according to He Wei’s expectations, she would eventually have to hire bodyguards.
“I will assign a woman to protect you.,” Song Mian added.
There were not many female bodyguards. With Song Mian’s power, he would definitely be able to find a top notch one. She decided to accept the offer. “I will pay for the fees.”
Song Mian’s eyebrows moved, but he did not say anything.
“I only want them to understand that I am their employer.” Yun Xiangxiang explained.
She did not want her underlings to be beholden to anyone but herself. If she wanted to terminate the contract or punish them, it would be an inconvenience.
After hearing what Yun Xiangxiang said, Song Mian nodded his head subtly. He turned his head to Song Yao and told him, “Go and arrange it.”
“Yes, young master.” Song Yao bowed his head respectfully before he dragged Shu Yun out with him and left.
With the two of them left in the room, Yun Xiangxiang felt quite unnatural.
Although Song Mian had no demeanor around him, she still felt a little pressured. Although he was a doctor, he did not have any aura of being gentle.
His whole body emitted the aura of a king.
Yun Xiangxiang felt that if this was during the historical period, this person would have the potential to become an emperor.
She suddenly remembered the words of the lady three years ago, “I heard that the Song Family has a prodigy now. He is only 23 years old, but he is using the identity of the heir to control the family. Even the big names of the west calls him a crownless emperor, and gave him the nickname “King”!”

“Yes.” Song Mian stopped his actions, and moved his laptop away. He then looked at Yun Xiangxiang, “You have already helped me two times. What do you want as your reward?”
What do you want as a reward?
Such an ordinary sentence, but Yun Xiangxiang had never ever felt pressured by this sentence before.
When it was spoken by Song Mian using such an ordinary tone, it gave Yun Xiangxiang the feeling that she could get whatever she wanted if she simply opened her mouth.
However, Yun Xiangxiang just wanted to distance herself from these kind of people. She did not intend to ask for anything extravagant and get something just by doing nothing.
It was just like what she told Old Man Min. She would rely on herself to acquire money and status.
After shaking her head softly, Yun Xiangxiang said, “Your life cannot be measured by any value.”
Although Song Mian was very smart, he did not get what Yun Xiangxiang was thinking. “So?”
“I already have thirty percent of my blood stored in your body. In one person’s life, no one would be able to predict if they would suddenly involve ourselves in an accident. Since our blood type is so unique, if I am ever in an emergency and am in need of blood, you can just donate yours to me.” Yun Xiangxiang told Song Mian while smiling.
This decision would be good. With this, she could distance herself from Song Mian, and not involve herself with him any further. This also meant that she had gotten herself a safety backup. Since he was a top-notch doctor, if she ever got infected by some sort of serious disease, she would still have someone to look to for help.
The despair she felt during her past life had left a trauma in her heart.
Of course, she still held her life dearly and would do what she can to protect herself. Asking the Song family to return the blood would only be a last resort.
Song Mian’s stared at Yun Xiangxiang silently for a moment. Maybe she saw wrongly, but when Yun Xiangxiang looked at his eyes, it was as if he was thinking of something deeply while smiling. His voice did not change. “As you wish.”
Yun Xiangxiang nodded her head and stood there for a while before turning around to return to her bed.
