Xia Yangyang was stunned.
Xia Yangyang noticed that the two eggs that hit Chen Yu’s head had not broken, they had fallen hard onto the table.
Upon touching them, she found they were frozen.
Xia Yangyang was scared; this was basically like two stones being thrown at someone.
“Chen Yu, Chen Yu, are you okay?”
Chen Yu stood upright and touched the back of his head.
Blood, it was actually blood!
Chen Yu was quickly taken to the hospital.
The doctor said it was quite serious. He had a minor concussion.
The girl who had thrown the eggs was reportedly taken to the police station. Upon investigation, it was said that she was a fan of Chen Yu and did not like seeing Xia Yangyang act with Chen Yu.
However, a proper press conference had unexpectedly turned into a farce.
In the end, the media highlighted the fact that the heroine of the new drama ‘Cinderella’ was pelted with eggs, and Chen Yu stood up to take the blow like a hero.
The goal was to clear up rumors, but this incident instead seemed to confirm their ambiguous relationship.
Xia Yangyang had just been discharged, and now Chen Yu was hospitalized.
That evening, Shen Shichuan also came to the hospital to visit Chen Yu.
Shen Shichuan said, “The director plans to suspend production for half a month. You both should rest and recover well.”
Xia Yangyang had been concerned; her body covered in rashes would normally heal in half a month, so this timing was suitable.
However, Xia Yangyang was even more worried about the media coverage.
She sought Shen Shichuan’s advice on whether they should clarify things once more.
Shen Shichuan reassured her, “Having a scandal is not necessarily a bad thing. Scandals are attention-grabbing. Whose reputation in the entertainment industry is without scandal, true or false? This level of scandal won’t cause too much negative impact, so don’t worry about it.”
Shen Shichuan’s words made sense, but Xia Yangyang still felt uneasy.
Deep down, Xia Yangyang didn’t really want to be misunderstood as having an ambiguous relationship with Chen Yu.
Perhaps she was also afraid that Gu Qichen wouldn’t be pleased.
Shen Shichuan looked at Xia Yangyang and asked, “Are your allergies getting better?”
Xia Yangyang nodded, “A little better.”
Shen Shichuan said, “Do you want me to help you investigate?”
Xia Yangyang immediately understood Shen Shichuan’s intention.
Earlier, Gu Qichen had also said that this was definitely a deliberate act. Maybe from their perspective, it was obvious and common.
Xia Yangyang replied, “No, I want to solve this matter myself.”
Shen Shichuan casually replied, “That’s also good.”
Xia Yangyang quickly returned to her dormitory at A University.
Due to the accidents that had befallen her and Chen Yu, filming had to be suspended.
Many crew members left for their homes.
However, when Xia Yangyang arrived at the dormitory, Lu Yao was still there.
Lu Yao was sitting at the desk reading a script. When she saw Xia Yangyang appear at the door, some emotion flickered across her face.
Then she asked, “Yangyang, you’re back?”
Xia Yangyang nodded and walked in, headed straight for her bed, and lifted her pillowcase as if looking for something.
Lu Yao felt guilty but maintained a calm face, “Yangyang, are you looking for something? Do you need my help?”
Xia Yangyang held the pillow in her arms and asked, “Did you wash my pillowcase?”
Lu Yao had indeed washed Xia Yangyang’s pillowcase and cover.
After the incident, Lu Yao was very scared.
At that time, she had put the peanut powder under Xia Yangyang’s pillow. To cover her tracks, as soon as Xia Yangyang was sent to the hospital, Lu Yao washed all of her bedding.
Lu Yao denied it, “No, Yangyang, what are you talking about?”
Xia Yangyang stated plainly, “There’s a distinct smell of laundry detergent on the pillow, but it’s not the kind I normally use.. Lu Yao, did you tamper with my pillow, causing my peanut allergy, didn’t you?”
