The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 290 - 183 Ning Wan Wakes Up

The doctor had directly informed him last night about Ning Wan’s miscarriage, making him suddenly feel like a caged beast surrounded by dense thorns. Any slight movement would cause the sharp thorns to pierce his skin, causing a pervasive pain throughout his body, with nowhere to hide and no escape.

As if sensing something, the warmth from the palm of her hand slowly calmed Ning Wan down, and she gradually fell quietly back into deep sleep.

Xi Mohan looked at her pale, bloodless face, and the intense pain in his heart surged again. Yet, he couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth into a cold smile, a smile of self-mockery.

As for his feelings for Ning Wan, he had always been very clear about what he felt for her. Otherwise, he would not have repeatedly possessed her and even tried in every way to keep her by his side, willing to drag her down to hell with him if he were to go there.

But all along, he never allowed himself to fall in love with Ning Wan. Even when he knew she loved him, he often employed various means to torment her, making her witness scenes of love between him and her most hated sister, leaving her alone in a corner crying.

But... isn’t this also a kind of masochism? Torturing Ning Wan also meant torturing himself.

Feeling very irritable, he took out a cigarette from his pocket intending to light it, but when he saw the girl lying on the hospital bed with her eyes tightly closed and devoid of color, he immediately put the cigarette back in the pack.

He grasped her abnormally small hand with his, his mind filled with myriad thoughts as he stared intently at her, maintaining this pose without moving the entire night.

...

When Song Qiao arrived at the hospital, Xi Mohan had already gone back to the villa to freshen up before heading to the office, so when she arrived, she only saw two very smart and capable nurses, thinking they were arranged by Lu Jingchen, she didn’t give it much thought.

She had already handed in her leave slip to Shen Yi, who approved her leave without hesitation or melancholy upon knowing she had to take care of Ning Wan.

Meanwhile, An Ke and Qin Zhe were currently shooting the leading movie by Hua Yi Media, "Life Reversal". Except for some cooperative tasks requiring the agent’s involvement, Song Qiao had delegated the rest of the work to several assistants.

Since Hua Yi Media publicly released some behind-the-scenes content of "Life Reversal" on the internet, it truly created a buzz online. Qin Zhe and An Ke, as newcomers, officially entered into the public eye. Even before the movie was broadcasted, they already attracted a significant number of fans, originally having only tens of thousands of followers on Weibo, An Ke had suddenly surpassed five million, and Qin Zhe was close to reaching eight million followers.

Male actors tend to be quite popular, especially since Qin Zhe’s role in the movie was also appealing to the audience, naturally attracting countless fans.

Of course, the roles they played, just like other characters, provoked some controversies.

The movie’s lead actors were Hua Yi Media’s top actress and actor, well-known domestically as first-tier celebrities, celebrated globally for their superb acting skills and good character, with fans all around the world.

In comparison, some other participating actors were also quite famous, but as for newcomers like An Ke and Qin Zhe, including the two of them, there were only three.

Another newcomer was from a different agency, about the same as Qin Zhe and his peers.

Song Qiao had been keeping up with their progress all this while. Although everyone was busy filming the movie, it was because her subordinates, Qin Zhe and An Ke, participated in the Hua Yi Media film. Other agents’ artists were still involved in shooting commercials and unknown movies, which weren’t generating much response.

Lu An’an’s two artists had also made a bit of a name for themselves lately. A few days ago, when Song Qiao returned to the company, she heard that her two artists had also received some movie offers, including one from CK Group.

There were some in the company who did not get along with Lu An’an, envying and resenting her luck. Some even bitterly suggested that Lu An’an must have climbed into the bed of that middle-aged man with a beer belly to have received the movie invitations from CK.
