After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 167 is over; Miss Lin, the visitor to the sanatorium.
The audition room doors opened again.

This time, those waiting outside not only looked over, but also checked the time.

Those who went in for auditions before stayed in the audition room for at least ten minutes. How long has this person been?

It felt like less than ten minutes!

You finished testing so quickly?
They were already surprised once to see Jiang Hanying, a mere third-tier actress, appear at their audition.

This isn't a public audition; there were always certain requirements to begin with.

To get here, you must have received an audition invitation from the production company; otherwise, you wouldn't be able to get in even if you wanted to.

The fact that Jiang Hanying was able to get in proves that even a third-tier celebrity like her received an invitation.

They were thinking to themselves, "When did Qingli Entertainment lower its standards so much that it even sent invitations to third-tier companies?"

Now I'm surprised again.

With such a short audition time, did you pass or fail?
They are more inclined to fail.

I guess he performed terribly and was kicked out, which is why he finished in such a short time.

When Guan Shan and Pei Yuan saw the audition room doors open, they immediately got up to greet the person.

Upon reaching Jiang Hanying, Guan Shan didn't ask any questions, saying, "Let's go out first."

He wasn't sure if Jiang Hanying had performed poorly in the audition, which was why she came out so quickly, but the looks from those around him made him swallow back the questions he wanted to ask.

Jiang Hanying thought he was going to take her to eat first, so she happily followed him.

To the people remaining in the waiting room, it looked like the loser hastily retreating.

Until I got back into the car.

"Where should we eat? Won't it be too late to eat back at the studio?"

Seeing that Jiang Hanying didn't seem disappointed, Guan Shan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "You really only think about eating?"

"What else can you think about if you're not thinking about eating when it's mealtime?"

"This audition..."

"That's too much."

As soon as those three words were uttered, Guan Shan, who was fastening his seatbelt in the driver's seat, and Pei Yuan, who was next to him, suddenly turned their heads to look at the person who had just spoken.

The movement was so fast, it felt like it could be flung off your neck.

"Passed? Passed?"

"Yeah." Jiang Hanying looked at this one and then at that one, then remembered that the two of them had walked silently with their heads down on the way out, and suddenly realized, "You two thought I didn't pass?"

"Your audition time was much shorter than the others who went in before you. I thought..."

Jiang Hanying snorted: "Could it be that my performance was so amazing that I intimidated those people inside and made them rush to let me through?"

Seeing her haughty demeanor, Guan Shan nodded and smiled indulgently: "Okay."

Pei Yuan clenched her fist and shouted "Yay!", then asked curiously, "Sis, what role did you audition for this time?"

"A villain who did a lot of bad things, it's actually quite exciting to act in."

"Uh!"

Pei Yuan and Guan Shan exchanged a silent glance.

That’s okay.

After all, I thought I hadn't passed the audition, so it's a huge surprise to find out I did.

Moreover, judging from Jiang Hanying's expression, she seems quite satisfied with this role.

"It's good that the roles are decided. Next, we just need to get the script, thoroughly understand it, and then wait for filming to start and join the crew. Now, let's treat you two to a big meal to celebrate!" Jiang Hanying: "I like this way of celebrating."

Guan Shan started the car with a smile; he knew it!

The trio went out for a celebratory meal, but Li Chengxiao and Li Jingmo ended up at a secluded sanatorium on the outskirts of the city.

After filling out the visitor information at the counter, the two were led by a nurse to the door of a ward on the third floor.

"This is Mr. Liao Dongyan's hospital room."

He then pushed open the door.

The ward was not large, with the bed and nursing equipment taking up half of it. The two people stood at the foot of the bed and looked at the person lying on it.

Their faces, already emaciated and deformed, no longer showed the elegance of the top dancers described in the information they had found.

But to have been in a vegetative state for more than ten years and to have been cared for so well is quite remarkable.

For an average family, it would be impossible to support such enormous expenses day after day for ten years, and it is not uncommon for them to give up with tears in their eyes.

"Who has paid for Mr. Liao's medical and nursing care expenses over the years?"

Li Jingmo had already exerted all her strength to find Liao Dongyan's whereabouts in less than a day, thanks to her position within the medical system.

For the rest, you'll have to come and ask in person.

“It started with Mr. Liao’s brother, but after three or four years, Mr. Liao’s brother failed to pay the fees on time. When we called him, he said that his business had failed and he had to give up on Mr. Liao. How long Mr. Liao can hold on depends on his fate. If he dies, we’ll call him again.”

"Who continued the payment after that?"

"It's a Miss Lin. We don't know what her relationship is with Mr. Liao, but I think she cares about him more than his brother does. Since Mr. Liao was sent to our sanatorium, it's considered good if he visits us once or twice a year. Miss Lin has never been late with our payments and visits him every few days."

"Last name is Lin?"

The two brothers couldn't help but exchange a glance.

This surname!

"What does that Miss Lin look like, and how old is she?"

When Li Jingmo asked the question, Li Chengxiao looked up at the surveillance camera installed in the ward.

"When was the last time Miss Lin came? How often are the surveillance cameras in your ward cleaned?"

"She's very beautiful, like a celebrity, probably in her early twenties, no more than twenty-five. Hmm, come to think of it, this interval does seem a bit long; she came about half a month ago. I really don't know how often the surveillance cameras are cleaned."

"Go to the monitoring room."

When Li Jingmo met the look in his younger brother's eyes, well, it was time for him to step in again!

monitoring room.

"It's working."

The two brothers immediately focused their attention on the computer screen.

The video begins directly with a person walking into the ward.

The visitor walked to the stool in front of the hospital bed and sat down. Only then did he take off his hat and mask, revealing a face that was indeed as beautiful as a celebrity, just as the nurse had said.

Ms. Lin sat quietly by the hospital bed for about ten minutes. Her lips moved slightly, as if she was about to say something, but her voice was too soft for the monitor to pick up.

He then put his hat and mask back on, got up, and left.

Li Chengxiao dragged the progress bar back, and when the monitor captured his face clearly, he paused the video, took out his phone, and took a picture of the computer screen.

Li Jingmo watched his actions quietly from the side. After they left the sanatorium and got back into the car, she asked, "Are you planning to investigate this Miss Lin again?"

"Well, although Lin Yuanyin and this Miss Lin don't look alike, and there's a difference of more than ten years between them, they are most likely related."

"Is it possible they are sisters?"

"It's possible."
