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

Chapter 349 The person I resented saved my life
Jiang Hanying arrived at the meeting room around the same time as the previous two days.

When I walked in, I discovered that I was actually the last one to arrive today.

Even Yuan Chaoyu, who usually arrives last and doesn't stay at the hotel, was already sitting comfortably in the seat in front of her.

As soon as Yun Fan saw Jiang Hanying, she leaned closer after everyone was seated, "Hanying..."

She had just called out a name when a soft cough came from the head of the table.

The director, with a serious and solemn face, glanced around at the faces of everyone sitting in the conference room before finally settling on Jiang Hanying.

Everyone else glanced over, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Feeling confused by the stares, Jiang Hanying simply asked, "Why are you all looking at me?" As she spoke, she raised her hand to touch her face. She remembered wiping her mouth and looking in the mirror before coming. Her face was clean, and of course, she looked beautiful!

"Well, before we begin the script reading today, I have something to say. It happened around 9 p.m. last night. Xin Linglong's assistant, Ding Ying, attempted suicide by cutting her wrists in her bathroom. Fortunately, Jiang Hanying and her assistant, Pei Yuan, discovered the abnormality in time and prevented the tragedy from happening. I believe everyone has heard about this."

Everyone nodded in unison.

"Ding Ying is out of danger now and will recover after a period of rest. However, to avoid any negative impact, since many people saw and even filmed the ambulance taking her away from the hotel yesterday, our production team's explanation is that Ding Ying suffered from acute gastroenteritis and was in so much pain that she couldn't move before she spoke up, which is why we called an ambulance. In the coming period, if you see any discussions about this online, remember to make sure that you and your staff keep a consistent story and don't accidentally let anything slip."

Everyone nodded in unison again.

Although they despised Xin Linglong for pushing her assistant too far, leading to the assistant's suicide, they also knew the gravity of the situation.

If this matter goes wrong, not only will Xin Linglong's production be ruined, but their entire production team will also be affected.

Who knows if the pressure on your film crew was too much, which led to someone taking their own life because they couldn't handle it?

These days, even an ordinary small company can become a hot topic and trend on social media if an employee commits suicide due to excessive work pressure. So it goes without saying that a film crew is constantly under the scrutiny of fans, paparazzi, and entertainment media.

Even if the other party is just an actor's assistant.

But assistants are human too!

They should also be respected!
"Also, I want to give special praise to Jiang Hanying and her assistant Pei Yuan. You two not only saved a life, but also prevented our crew from falling into a public opinion crisis."

After all, being injured is a completely different concept from being dead.

The latter would have far more serious consequences!

After the director finished speaking, he stood up and bowed deeply in Jiang Hanying's direction, saying, "On behalf of the crew, I thank Hanying!"

Yun Fan, standing beside her, gave her two thumbs up, saying, "He left without a trace after accomplishing his task, concealing his merits and fame!"

Jiang Hanying: "You're welcome, Director," then pressed Yun Fan's two thumbs back down, "I was just sleepy."

Yun Fan: "You don't need to explain, I understand!"

Jiang Hanying: "..."

Fine, say whatever you want!

"Haha, let's leave it at that about last night. Now I'll turn the camera on and continue our script reading."

hospital.

Ding Ying had just woken up when she opened her eyes to see Xin Linglong standing guard by her bedside. Even though the other woman's expression was gentle, she couldn't help but shrink back.

“Ling, Sister Linglong.”

Xin Linglong smiled and took her hand, her voice incredibly gentle: "How are you? Still feeling unwell? You should have told me when your gastroenteritis flared up. Why did you have to endure it? Now you've made a big problem. You can't do that again, you know?"

Ding Ying was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered.

Her already pale complexion, caused by excessive blood loss, looked even more broken.

She should have realized that neither the production team nor Xin Linglong would allow her to use suicide to affect the production schedule or Xin Linglong's career. Therefore, the wrist-cutting attempt was disguised as an acute attack of gastroenteritis!

When she cut her wrists last night, she genuinely considered using her death to ruin Xin Linglong's dream of becoming a top female star, and even prevent her from becoming an actress. Her death would be the biggest stain on Xin Linglong's path to stardom, the kind that can never be washed away.

She even harbored resentment towards the production crew, including the director and other actors. It was only because things weren't going smoothly on set that Xin Linglong resorted to beatings, verbal abuse, and all sorts of tormenting her assistant.

But now, she has been rescued.

She was certain that she still wanted to live, and wanted to live a good life!
"Sister Linglong, did you save me?"

Xin Linglong's forced kindness and gentleness suddenly twisted, and she accidentally used too much force on her hand.

"Ouch, that hurts! Sister Linglong, it hurts!"

Xin Linglong quickly let go of her hand, then clenched her fist tightly before replying, "It wasn't me, it was Pei Yuan, who lives next door, who found it, and Jiang Hanying too."

She wanted to say that she was the one who saved her, but such a lie would be exposed as soon as it was exposed.

Ding Ying was momentarily dazed when she heard Xin Linglong practically spit out the two names through gritted teeth.

She actually harbored resentment towards Jiang Hanying in secret.

Earlier, when she spilled her coffee at the elevator entrance, although she knew in her heart that she was more responsible, she still couldn't help but feel resentful that the other person had just walked by and startled her.

Furthermore, ninety percent of Xin Linglong's misfortunes and complaints on set this time were due to Jiang Hanying.

Unfortunately, Xin Linglong couldn't get anything good from Jiang Hanying, so she turned around and used her as a punching bag.

She felt that Jiang Hanying also bore some responsibility for the suffering she had endured.

But now, Xin Linglong tells her that it was Jiang Hanying who saved her!

The person she had secretly resented saved her life!

"You should take a good rest this time. I'll give you a month's leave, your salary will be paid as usual, and your medical and hospitalization expenses will be reimbursed. I'll also give you a separate bonus for nutritional supplements..."

Xin Linglong was talking about the arrangements she had planned for Ding Ying, but when she looked down, she saw that the man's eyes were unfocused and he seemed to be daydreaming. A vein on her forehead throbbed involuntarily. "Did you hear what I said?"

Ding Ying snapped out of her daze. "Sorry, Sister Linglong, I didn't hear you clearly. Could you please repeat it?"

Xin Linglong had no choice but to suppress her anger and repeat herself, "Did you hear me clearly this time?"

"Understood, thank you, Sister Linglong."

"You're welcome!" Xin Linglong stood up, her hands trembling. "I've also hired a caregiver for you. Just ask her if you need anything. I need to go back to the hotel to work on the script, so I'll head back now. Take good care of yourself."

Before Ding Ying could even speak, he grabbed his bag and hurriedly left.

She didn't want to stay in that hospital room for even a second longer!

Ding Ying watched her figure disappear outside the door before slowly sitting up and pressing the call button.

The caregiver rushed over quickly.

"Ms. Ding, would you like to use the restroom or get a drink of water?"

"No, I'd like to trouble you to go to the supermarket across from Xiyun Hotel. There's a cell phone in locker number six. Could you get it for me? The password is 3332."

She had put the phone in there beforehand.

Even if she dies, someone will receive a message she sends regularly and go to collect it, to prevent her death from being suppressed quietly by the production team and Xin Linglong. The contents of her phone alone would be enough to ruin Xin Linglong's reputation.

Now that she's been rescued, she naturally needs to get her phone back as soon as possible.

Of course, there's an even more important reason: she's now eager to see what she photographed on her phone.
