The sweetest in the entertainment industry

Chapter 194 Youthful Spirit

Gu Lanxi hurriedly left Kaiyuan County People's Hospital, got into her car and drove off without leaving a word for anyone.

I'm afraid that if I leave too late, I won't be able to control myself and will show a bad expression or say something harsh.

This is extremely rare for someone as meticulous as her.

The marks of a person's growth are imprinted on their being and will never disappear.

When she was a child, she hated that she wasn't a boy.

If she were a boy, her parents' relationship might be okay, and her grandparents would like her and even spoil her.

When she grew up and realized it wasn't her fault, she began to hate the person who was truly at fault.

She doesn't deny that this family is indeed pitiful.

At that time, around eight o'clock in the morning, all the people carrying vegetables into the city to sell had already left. Only she, who was taking a shortcut back to the film set, would drive by.

If it weren't for her, that family would have had to wait an unknown amount of time for other buses.

She was speeding and took the shortest route, yet it still took her more than ten minutes to get the person to the hospital. If she had taken an oxcart, not to mention whether the oxcart could even enter the city, and whether her family knew the way, at that speed it would have taken at least two hours to get there.

In this situation, even if she knew beforehand that his family favored sons over daughters, she couldn't possibly ignore it.

Because life truly surpasses everything else.

Rational as she was, she felt she had done a good job today; emotionally, however, she couldn't help but feel regret.

Because of her, it is highly likely that she spent a great deal of time and money to help a "glorious ancestor" successfully come into this world...

She was giving birth in a breech position and experiencing heavy bleeding. Fearing that both she and the baby would need emergency care, she pre-deposited 15,000 yuan at the payment window.

After that, I spent another two hundred yuan on shopping.

I was delayed at work and ran five red lights while speeding. Luckily, nothing serious happened, and I can apply for a revocation from the traffic management department later...

It can be said that she did everything within her power to save the lives of that mother and child.

But when everything settled down, she discovered that this family was exactly the kind of people she hated most.

Gu Lanxi took several deep breaths before opening the car door.

That's enough. I just want to have a clear conscience.

It was already 9:05 when I left the hospital. Forget about getting back to the set for makeup, the start time for filming would have to be postponed.

The assistant who was in charge of urging her to get ready had already called and knew about her situation, so she didn't rush her, only telling her to be careful on the road.

Gu Lanxi hung up the phone, called the director herself, apologized sincerely, and then called Mei Xue to ask her to pay attention to public opinion guidance.

Being in a hurry on the road does indeed violate traffic regulations, and if not handled properly, it will definitely lead to being targeted by others.

Upon receiving the news, Mei Xue immediately began to pay close attention.

Sure enough, photos and videos have already surfaced online.

Hospitals are places with a lot of people, so it's not surprising that someone took a picture of it.

Gu Lanxi returned to the film set and, seeing her two assistants greet her, immediately instructed Niu Lili:

“Lili, there’s blood on the back seat of the car. Contact the rental company, explain the situation, see how to handle it, and find out how much compensation is needed. Export and save the driving record, and prepare your ID card and rental contract. After I finish filming this scene, come with me to the traffic management department, otherwise we’ll get 42 points deducted, and our driver’s license will definitely be confiscated.”

To retrieve it later, you'll have to attend classes and pass an exam first.

She only has half a month left to finish filming, so there's no way she'd waste more than ten days on this.

Because of a traffic violation while rescuing someone, and no serious consequences resulted, the violation record can be revoked after the situation is explained.

Gu Lanxi prefers to drive herself when she goes out and doesn't hire a driver; her driver's license is very important to her.

Hearing her calmly arrange the various matters, Niu Lili immediately nodded.

"Xiaotong, come with me. No matter what, making a good movie is the most important thing." Zhuang Xiaotong nodded quickly.

Most people would panic in this situation, but she remained calm and prepared to film as planned.

It has to be said that the boss has a strong core, and working under her is truly reassuring.

"Have you had breakfast yet? I brought you pickled cucumbers, pumpkin porridge, and boiled eggs, all made by Aunt Wang this morning."

When she was with Lu Nanting, he never let her go hungry, not even for a single meal. She had already eaten breakfast by now.

But there is no need to say such things.

"We've already eaten, let's go in first, we're late."

She and her staff had been in constant contact, and they both knew what had happened to her on the way, so there was no need to waste words at this point.

As for why Niu Lili was specifically asked to accompany them to the traffic management department, it was because although the car was intended for their own use, it was rented using Niu Lili's ID card.

Now, if she wants to file an appeal, she needs to bring Niu Lili along as well, in addition to herself.

She wasn't sure whether the car rental company would send someone.

Once inside the dressing room, Gu Lanxi immediately got into work mode, never mentioning the incident again, as if nothing had happened.

She came back late, so the director had to film other people's scenes first. After she finished her makeup and changed into her costume, she had to sit on the side and wait.

When the production manager saw her return, he quickly came over and asked, "How's the baby?"

"I arrived in time, and the baby was delivered via C-section. The baby's cry was very loud, so she should be fine. As for the mother, I was in a rush to get back to filming, so I didn't ask her too many questions."

Production manager Tong Guangquan is friends with Lu Nanting's cousin. When Gu Lanxi joined the crew, Tong Guangquan liked her very much because she was thoughtful and well-mannered.

Later, when they found out she had married Lu Nanting, he treated her even better.

Seeing that she had just returned from rescuing someone and there was no joy on her face, I assumed the person hadn't survived. Hearing her say that, I quietly offered some words of advice:

"When you finish work later, remember to go and see that mother and child again. Bring some baby bottles and nutritional supplements. I'll have someone prepare them for you later."

He was genuinely offering advice to Gu Lanxi.

If someone in this industry happens to do something like this, they deserve to be trending on social media!
Gu Lanxi didn't want to see them again and refused directly: "No need, I still have a lot of work to do."

Tong Guangquan was furious!

"What work can't be finished? Why does it have to be done in these last two days?"

Seeing that Gu Lanxi was unyielding, he thought she was young and immature, so he lowered his voice to persuade her:
"You can confidently promote positive things like this without worrying about backlash. In this line of work, a good reputation is really important."

Gu Lanxi understood this principle when she was twelve years old, so her refusal was not because she didn't understand it.

However, Tong Guangquan genuinely cared for her from the perspective of an elder, and she couldn't be simply dismissed.

So she leaned closer, covered her mouth with the script, and whispered, "This is their third child, a boy. The whole family has been looking forward to it for a long time, so I won't bother them while they're taking care of the child."

Lu Nanting was on a plane at the moment. There was no internet access on this flight, and she was really feeling pent up. She couldn't say these things to outsiders, so Tong Guangquan took the initiative to come over. After thinking for a moment, she carefully said something.

That's why dealing with smart people is so much easier!
Tong Guangquan understood immediately.

A respectable person won't show their dislike.

"These things can't be forced," Tong Guangquan sighed.

Seeing that she had a script, he walked away on his own.

When he took out his phone and looked at it, he couldn't help but laugh.

Although the boss is intelligent, she is still young and has a youthful spirit, and she can act impulsively. The people under her are all experienced veterans.

That's a good approach.
