She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 1050 - 882: Super Star 56 (First Update)

As they say, ’An injury to the muscles and bones takes a hundred days to heal,’ and she was unsure if she could still participate in the piano competition.

She wasn’t worried about her studies because she had a solid foundation, but the piano was her first serious attempt to pursue a professional path, relying on hard work to make up for her shortcomings. Now, given the situation...

Hua Yan looked at her plastered wrist. Her dislocated elbow was set, but her wrist injury was severe and in a cast. In this condition, she definitely needed assistance. She would have to ask the nurse if they could help her find a caregiver.

Just as she was about to figure out how to call Liang An and the others, Ling Yao came running in, breathless, early in the morning. As soon as he saw her, he started scolding her without holding back.

"What were you thinking? Huh? How could you attempt such a dangerous move? Do you think you have nine lives? Even movies don’t shoot without proper precautions, and there you were, using your life as a joke!"

Ling Yao was so furious that he didn’t notice someone else lying beside Hua Yan. When Molly, startled by the sudden noise, opened her eyes, she was instantly captivated by the handsome man adorned in sportswear. He seemed somewhat familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

Shortly after, Liang An and Ling Yao’s former assistant, who had become Liang An’s assistant, came in with him. It was clear they had arrived together, though Ling Yao was a bit quicker.

"Why are you all here?"

Liang An looked at her, annoyed, "Why do you think? Such a big incident happened, and you didn’t inform us. I heard about it from the police as your guardian. You, girl, why act so stubbornly? Good people end up in such a state just because they overextend themselves."

It was then that Hua Yan remembered what her injury implied. "Uncle, I’m sorry. I didn’t expect this. As for our film, I’m afraid..."

"It’s alright, that’s a minor issue. You two can re-shoot those scenes later. But you went too far this time. Remember, you’re a person, not Spiderman. You dare to perform car stunts? Do you think you’re living too long?"

Liang An had spoken to the doctor about Hua Yan’s condition. "Don’t worry, I’ve arranged for someone from the company to come and look after you."

"Uncle, that’s not necessary. I can find a caregiver."

"Since you call me Uncle, what? Do you think the people I find as your guardian aren’t good enough?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"No, it’s not that. How could I trouble the people from the company?"

"I’m paying them, so why not? Besides, it’s not like you can’t move; they’ll just help feed you, which isn’t a hard task. Don’t worry about it. Rest well in the hospital. I’ve already spoken to the doctor. You need to stay here for the first week, and after you’re discharged, I’ll take you home to recover."

They were all so engrossed in their conversation that they forgot Molly was still there. Molly, initially confused, stared at Ling Yao’s face, trying to recall where she’d seen him. Then she suddenly took out her phone, searched quickly, and found the match. She stood up in shock, unable to close her mouth.

"Aren’t you Ling Yao? My God, I never thought I, Molly, would see a celebrity one day. It’s really Ling Yao? Are you the Ling Yao who got into Huaqing University?"

Ling Yao looked at the woman with the afro, dark circles, and leather jacket, his mouth twitching in disdain.

"I’m Ling Yao, and you are?" Even if he was unimpressed, he didn’t forget basic manners.

Hua Yan looked apologetically at Molly, "I’m sorry, I forgot to introduce you. Molly, this is my uncle and cousin."

Ling Yao’s eyes widened suddenly, "Cousin? You say I’m your cousin?"

"Foster cousin, okay? Why so concerned? How else should I address you? Friend? That seems too distant!"

"You could call me your boy—" But before he could get out the word "friend," Hua Yan’s warning gaze shut him up. He snorted in dissatisfaction, "Alright, alright, you win. Foster cousin it is. At least it’s still ’cousin.’ Don’t people in H-country also call their husbands Oppa?"

Molly looked admiringly at Hua Yan, "I can’t believe it; Ling Yao is your cousin. Hua Yan, you sure keep things well hidden. I mean, I, um..."

Suddenly reminded of last night’s events, her expression turned awkward, and Hua Yan interrupted her just in time.

"What’s past is past. By the way, how’s the girl who had the accident last night?"

Molly shook her head regretfully, "She landed on her head. She’s a junior from our school and is still in a coma. They aren’t sure if she’ll wake up. The doctor says the possibility of her being in a vegetative state is higher."

’Ah?’ Hua Yan sighed in sympathy, her face turning solemn. "And what about those two bastards?"

"Don’t worry, they’ve been arrested. They behaved so poorly, and we’ve got video evidence. The police even found bloodstains in their car. They can’t escape. This incident has become hot news online. People are demanding severe punishment; they’re definitely looking at heavy sentences. As for the medical expenses for you and that girl, the court will allocate from their assets after an investigation, but until then, you might have to cover it yourself. I think I can help,"

"Thank you, Molly, but there’s no need. I have insurance."

"Your school’s teachers also contacted me. They asked you to rest and not worry about your classes. They’ll make sure you catch up. They also said they’ll apply for a Jing City Good Samaritan, Young Hero title for you, which might give you extra points on your college entrance exam,"

However, the emphasis for Hua Yan was, "You’re saying this incident became hot news? My face isn’t shown, right? Show me the video."

When she saw the news featuring her bicycle and backpack, she sighed, "Uh oh, that guy will definitely come looking once he sees it."

As Ling Yao was about to ask who she meant, the hospital room door flung open, revealing Ning Hao’s face, gasping for breath.

"Sis, sis, how are you? How could you not tell me about such a big incident? If it wasn’t for our teacher playing the news in class, I wouldn’t have known it was you."

Wow, they played the news in class?

Molly turned to explain, "The nature of the incident was awful, happening along the after-school route, and it involved three of our girls. If you hadn’t diverted them, who knows what could’ve happened. So the school is taking it seriously, using it as a case study in classes,"

She didn’t forget to add one last thing, "Sorry, I always thought you were an orphan. I didn’t know you not only have an uncle and cousin, but now a brother too. I, I just,"

Hua Yan knew what she meant, "Don’t be a stranger. You stayed here with me all night, go back to your dorm, freshen up, and relax. Come to class in the afternoon. Don’t worry about me; I have someone here to look after me. Go on, Uncle, please see her out,"

"No, it’s fine, I can go on my own. Okay then, you all continue chatting, I’ll come by after school in the afternoon."

Molly knew it wasn’t appropriate to stay longer, so she got up to leave. Seeing Hua Yan’s backpack, she added.

"Oh, by the way, your bicycle is downstairs at the hospital. I rode it over here for you,"

"Molly, why don’t you ride it back to school?"

Molly thought about how she might need to go back and forth from the school to the hospital, so she nodded and left, not refusing.

As soon as Molly left, Ning Hao went straight to where Molly had been sitting, his eyes red, wanting to hold Hua Yan’s hand. Seeing the plaster, he couldn’t hold back his tears, prompting Hua Yan to comfort him quickly.

"It’s okay. It looks scary, but it’s just a fracture. Resting well will heal it. Don’t worry!"

Ning Hao insisted on staying to look after Hua Yan, but she refused. Middle school courses are also hefty; missing too many would make catching up tough for him.

Thankfully, the person Liang An hired arrived on time, and Ling Yao told him, "You’re a boy; it’s not convenient for you to take care of a hospitalized girl. See, this young lady is here to look after your sister, so now you can relax, right? Since your school is far from this area, you can video call if worried. No need to come running every day because even if you do, you won’t be much help. Look at me; I worry about her too, but I also understand gender differences, right? Listen to your brother, let your sister recover well here. She’ll be discharged by the weekend, and then you can cook her meals when she’s home, right?"

Ning Hao eyed Ling Yao sideways, "And who are you?"

Hua Yan immediately said to Ning Hao, "This brother of yours is amazing. After just half a year of high school courses, he got into Huaqing University’s Computer Department. He was last year’s science top scorer and could choose any department at Huaqing. Haohao, don’t you also want to get into Huaqing? This brother is your role model, so study hard, okay?"

Ning Hao didn’t know why, but he just didn’t like this man, even if he got into Huaqing, so what?

"My parents and Aunt Yan Yue all graduated from Jing University. It’s just that my sister didn’t attend Four Middle School’s high school department. If she did, she could get into Huaqing too."

Seeing him still unconvinced, Ling Yao found it amusing, "Yes, your parents and Aunt Yan are from Jing University, but what about you? Can you get in?"

"Why can’t I? I was second in the grade last semester, and this semester, I’ll definitely be the top."

Ling Yao chuckled, "That’s nothing. Getting into Huaqing is what counts."

"I’ll surely get into Huaqing University Medical College, definitely will!"

Ning Hao clenched his fists, determined, and Ling Yao had no intention of dampening his enthusiasm, "Alright, then your brother here wishes you success in achieving your dreams soon!"
