Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 190: Xiao He to the Rescue? Or Xiao He in a Crash?

Finally, Xiao He spent an additional 80,000 points with tears in his eyes and drew the third ”Recovery Gene Potion (incomplete)” item. Before getting into the ambulance, he used one on both Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen.

Although Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen currently appeared to be in quite good condition, after such a violent impact, no one knew if any internal organs had suffered severe damage.

There were plenty of cases where people seemed perfectly fine afterward but deteriorated rapidly upon reaching the hospital.

Points could be earned again, but Sister Liu and Xiao Chen had been with him for so long that they had long become friends he deeply valued. When it came to matters of life and death, Xiao He never hesitated to spend his points.

Moreover, the current situation was chaotic. With everyone having taken adrenaline, they didnʼt know their actual conditions. Before reaching the hospital, Xiao He could still make his own decisions, but if serious conditions were discovered at the hospital, it would be difficult for him to operate and save people, which would instead attract othersʼ attention and suspicion.

So Xiao He didnʼt dare to gamble, nor did he dare to economize.

The final outcome turned out to be relatively good. Xiao He and his group were taken to the hospital for a series of examinations, and aside from some minor scrapes, no major problems were found.

Originally, Liu Rulan had blood all over her face and hands. When the doctor saw her, his heart sank slightly, suspecting that Liu Rulan might have glass fragments embedded somewhere in her head. They took X-rays and conducted examinations, checking back and forth, only to find a tiny wound on the back of her head.

Doctor: ...

Looking at Liu Rulanʼs blood-covered face, then at the small wound that was almost scabbed over, the doctor seemed to want to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he still couldnʼt figure out how such a small wound could produce so much blood and had Liu Rulan stay for observation for a while.
Xiao Chen was also carefully examined and no major issues were found, just some neck strain that would heal with a few days of rest.

Xiao He was even more lively and energetic. After completing his examination, he even had spare time to help with errands like paying fees and handling various hospital procedures.

By the time he returned, Liu Rulan had already fallen asleep leaning on Xiao Chen, and even Xiao Chen was so tired he kept nodding off.

Xiao He quickly walked over and woke both of them: ”Wake up, letʼs go to the ward to sleep.”

Xiao Chen and Liu Rulan both rubbed their eyes, struggling to stay awake.

”What about Director Yan—”

”Itʼs fine, Iʼll handle it.” Xiao He said in a steady tone, ”You two should go rest in the ward. Sister Liu still needs plenty of observation right now.”

Liu Rulan thought for a moment, then nodded: ”Alright, Iʼll immediately have the hotel assistant come over to temporarily take over Xiao Chenʼs and my work.”

”Mm, Iʼve already notified them. Iʼll handle this matter properly too.”

”And what about the new script...”

”Weʼll talk about the new script later. You should rest now.” Xiao He sighed, ”Xiao Chen, help your Sister Liu go rest.”

”Oh, right away!” Xiao Chen quickly supported Liu Rulan, ”Sister Liu, this way, this way.”

Liu Rulan said helplessly: ”Didnʼt the doctor say thereʼs nothing wrong with my feet? Itʼs just a slight strain—”

”Resting early means you can get back to work sooner!”

Xiao He was firm in his stance and glanced sideways at Xiao Chen, ”Xiao Chen, hurry up.”

Liu Rulan had no choice but to be escorted out by Xiao Chen: ”Then donʼt forget to inform Director Zhuang too.”

”Alright, alright.”

Only after settling Liu Rulan and Xiao Chen did Xiao He have time to make some calls.

But actually, he didnʼt need to make calls—his phone was almost blown up with incoming calls.

Such a major traffic accident occurring in Beijing had made it to the hot search list almost immediately.

Among the bystanders, there were many who recognized Xiao He and Liu Rulan.

So public opinion exploded once again.

Yan Shaohan, upon receiving this news, had immediately called, but at that time Xiao He and the others were busy with hospital examinations and didnʼt answer the phone.

This led to Yan Shaohan still not knowing the actual situation on Xiao Heʼs side, while rumors continued to fly wildly online.

【Holy crap, Xiao He was in a car accident, covered in blood, and taken away by ambulance.】

【Was it at that intersection on the Fifth Ring Road?】

【Yes, I saw it too. Xiao Heʼs car was completely wrecked.】

【DM me for pictures】

【I have pictures too, but theyʼre too graphic and probably canʼt be posted. Actually, Xiao He was relatively okay at the scene, even helping to rescue people. Itʼs his manager who seemed in bad shape, bleeding continuously from the head—really terrifying.】

【What exactly happened? Was it an attack by anti-fans?】

【Has the entertainment industry become this terrifying now? Theyʼre actually resorting to terrorist attacks?】

【No, it doesnʼt seem like that. They seemed to just be passing by, but thereʼs no official conclusion yet, so better not spread rumors.】

【Huh? Wasnʼt Brother Xiao there to rescue people? I saw the video of him climbing the tanker truck.】

【Wasnʼt Brother Xiao the one in the accident? I saw him lying on the ground, covered in blood.】

【No, Brother Xiao was there to rescue people. He wasnʼt in the accident.】

【Brother Xiao is perfectly fine. He was rescuing people.】

【Huh? Iʼm confused now. One moment they say Brother Xiao was rescuing people, the next they say Brother Xiao was the one hit. Who should I believe?】

【Believe the official announcement. Wait for the official notice first. Hope everyone stays safe.】

Xiao He briefly scanned the current online public opinion and sighed deeply with frustration.

This was the trouble with overly developed online information.

People hadnʼt even left the hospital yet, but it sounded like the bodies had already been cremated at the funeral home...

He first contacted Yan Shaohan.

”Which hospital are you at now?” Hearing Xiao Heʼs reassurance that they were safe, Yan Shaohan breathed a sigh of relief but still asked anxiously, ”Iʼll bring Senior Brother Fan to see you right away.”

”No, thereʼs no need—”

Xiao He initially wanted to refuse, but considering they were in Beijing, not their home turf, and indeed didnʼt know many people here, he agreed and provided the hospital name: ”Then Iʼll trouble you. Sister Liu is still under observation, and I might not be able to handle taking care of her alone. Could Director Yan borrow a female assistant from Sister Xinya? Also, regarding the online rumors, please have the production team and our studio jointly clarify the situation, at least to announce that everyone is safe.”

”Alright, Senior Brother Fan and I will handle it immediately.”

After contacting Yan Shaohan, Xiao He received a call from Zhuang Hongyi.

Zhuang Hongyi had more well-informed sources. When he called Xiao He, he wasnʼt as panicked as Yan Shaohan had been. Instead, he said: ”Iʼve already had the operations team prepare a statement from the production crew. You just need to post a photo now. Iʼll have someone coordinate with your studio.”

Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief: ”Good! Thank you, Director Zhuang.”

”Mm, no problem.” Zhuang Hongyi looked at the video on his tablet showing Xiao He climbing the tanker truck to rescue people, rubbing his temples with a headache: ”I just never expected you to be so bold.”

He had previously thought Xiao Heʼs ”good person” image was just studio marketing, but now Zhuang Hongyi realized this kid was the real deal.

He really didnʼt value his life at all! Now that this had happened, he didnʼt know if it would delay the production schedule—

Xiao He: ”Huh?”

Zhuang Hongyi then remembered how Liu Rulan had shamelessly come to them earlier today to help Xiao He secure an audition opportunity. He opened his mouth, but ultimately didnʼt say anything more: ”Get yourselves properly checked. Rest when you need to. Donʼt worry about the production team.”

Judging by this kidʼs condition, he should still be lively and energetic, so it probably wouldnʼt cause much delay.

Xiao He was momentarily stunned before remembering that this person was still his ”big boss.” He immediately expressed his stance without delay: ”Thank you so much, Director Zhuang. I donʼt have any serious problems. I just need one day off tomorrow to handle matters related to the accident, and I can return to work the day after.”

He knew their relationship wasnʼt that close, and Zhuang Hongyiʼs call was mainly about the production teamʼs upcoming shooting schedule.

This was actually quite normal—everyone would be unhappy about work being delayed.

Hearing Xiao Heʼs words, Zhuang Hongyi fell silent for a moment before saying somewhat speechlessly: ”One week off is perfectly acceptable!”

Donʼt make him look like some unscrupulous capitalist!

When things were put that way, anyoneʼs conscience would ache a little!
