Shen Jun patiently explained, “That was a tracking code. Since we took a photo of the license plate, I embedded the code into Wen Nian’s phone. This way, even if we can’t contact her, we can periodically check her location as long as she has her phone with her.”

Wen Xing nodded in agreement and let out a sigh. “Indeed, studying is essential! It proves to be quite useful in situations like this.”

Shen Jun smiled warmly and gently carried Wen Xing into the hospital.

After checking in at the hotel, Wen Nian requested the assistance of a waiter to transfer all her luggage to her room. Once that was taken care of, she proceeded to make phone calls one by one, reassuring her loved ones of her safety. After munching on some biscuits, she began organizing the belongings she had brought along.

The guest room doorbell rang.

As Wen Nian opened the door to her room, she was greeted by the sight of Xu Chang accompanied by a slightly reserved young man wearing black-framed glasses.

Upon seeing Wen Nian in person, Xu Chang’s face lit up with relief. “Welcome, welcome! 1 hurried back from school as soon as 1 received your message.”

Wen Nian smiled warmly and invited the two of them inside. “You could have run your errands. You didn’t have to come all the way here.”

Xu Chang said jokingly, “I’m not at ease until I see you with my own eyes.”

Xu Chang entered the room and realized that Wen Nian was alone. “Why are you alone?”

Wen Nian provided a brief explanation of the situation to Xu Chang. Once Xu Chang understood that the matter had been taken care of, he didn’t inquire further and got straight to the point. “All the main actors will be gathering today. Please come to my room at 7 p.m. tonight, Room 703. We will have a script reading session.”

Wen Nian agreed. “Okay.”

Xu Chang motioned for the man standing behind him to step forward and introduced him to Wen Nian and the young man. “This is our movie screenwriter, Jiang Bai. Jiang Bai, meet our female lead, Wen Nian.”

Jiang Bai gained fame as a result of this movie and went on to collaborate with Xu Chang on two more successful films. These projects garnered significant commercial success. By the time Wen Nian passed away, Jiang Bai had already established himself as a renowned screenwriter.

However, Jiang Bai maintained a low profile throughout his career and never appeared on screen. As a result, Wen Nian had only heard his name but never had the opportunity to meet him in person.

Wen Nian took the initiative to extend her hand with a warm smile. “Hello, Screenwriter Jiang.”

A slight twitch appeared at the corners of Jiang Bai’s lips as he reached out and delicately held Wen Nian’s fingertips. Almost immediately, he released his grip and spoke softly, “Hello.”

Xu Chang quickly reassured Wen Nian, explaining, “Jiang Bai is a bit introverted and not very talkative, but you can rest assured about the quality of his work!”

Wen Nian understood Jiang Bai’s social phobia, so she smiled and nodded at Xu Chang. “No worries, I haven’t finished tidying up either. Please have a seat. Let me make some tea for you.”

Xu Chang hurriedly stopped Wen Nian. “There’s no need to trouble yourself. I’m just here to greet you. The opening ceremony is tomorrow, and there’s a lot to prepare for today. 1 need to rush off to confirm some details. Please feel free to call me if you need anything.”

Wen Nian, realizing that she also had her own tasks to attend to, responded without hesitation. “Director Xu, please go ahead and focus on your work. I’ll reach out to you if I require any assistance.”

After Xu Chang hurriedly visited and departed, Wen Nian resumed packing her belongings.

Three hours later, Shen Jun returned from the hospital with Wen Xing.

Wen Xing had regained his ability to walk normally. Although he still moved at a slow pace, he was no longer in pain with each step.

Wen Nian assisted Wen Xing as he got off Shen Jun’s back, and they slowly made their way to the sofa to sit down. “I feel much better now. What did the doctor say?” Wen Nian asked, curious about the doctor’s prognosis.

Shen Jun placed the bag he was carrying down and retrieved the bottle of medicinal wine. “The doctor confirmed that it’s a muscle strain. I’ve performed massages and physical therapy. The doctor prescribed this bottle of medicinal wine, which needs to be applied in the morning, noon, and night. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the hospital for two consecutive days of treatment. You can focus on your filming without worry. I’ll take care of Uncle,” Shen Jun reassured Wen Nian.

Wen Xing added, “Indeed, Little Shen can accompany me to the hospital. You can focus on your work without any worries.”

Little Shen? It had only been a few hours, and they were already so close?

Wen Nian frowned and looked at her father in confusion. When did her father become as shameless as her?

However, it was not appropriate to ask in person now. Wen Nian asked with concern, “Shen Jun, have you eaten?”

Shen Jun replied, “I’ve eaten. I bought food in the hospital cafeteria.”

Shen Jun, understanding the importance of maintaining appropriate boundaries, decided that he had done enough for the day. He took the initiative to excuse himself, saying, “You and Uncle should have a good rest in the afternoon. I’ll go back to the my room to tidy up.”

Wen Nian took out Shen Jun’s room card from her bag and handed it over. “Alright, I’ll look for you for dinner at six.”

Shen Jun pulled his luggage and said goodbye to Wen Xing. “Uncle, I’ll get going first. See you tonight.”

Wen Xing quickly smiled and waved. “Okay, see you tonight. Wen Nian, send him off quickly..”
