Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Hmm, I’m in Charge

Ten minutes later.

President Fu, Mrs. Fu has a slight lumbar sprain, and we’ve applied an ointment," the doctor explained. "Here are the replacement ointments, change it daily. Make sure to rub it until it’s warm for better absorption."

Fu Sichen nodded slightly, "Thank you."

"Are you relieved now? You even insisted in bringing a female doctor."

Chen Yanyu was a friend of Fu Sichen and a doctor who, after returning to the country, became fully involved in scientific research.

He sometimes consulted for the wealthy families’ young masters and ladies, serving as a sort of family physician.

He was about to go to sleep when Fu Sichen called him in a hurry, saying to bring a female doctor, he almost thought something had happened.

Fu Sichen glanced at the hand resting on his shoulder.

Chen Yanyu immediately withdrew his hand—what was with that disgusted look: "Don’t do anything strenuous for the next few days, be careful. If you really can’t hold off, it’s not like you don’t have ways to take care of it yourself."

Fu Sichen’s gaze was deep as he looked at the man beside him who wouldn’t stop yapping, and said indifferently, "I’m not like certain people, I’m not a perpetual bachelor."

Chen Yanyu: I’m being disturbed, I shall leave.

Jiang Mian was lying on the bed replying to Luo Ting’s message.

Luo Ting: "Take a look at Weibo’s trending topics, it’s heating up."

Jiang Mian scrolled to the top trending topic #Linghua Replaces Xu Yanzhi as Third Female Lead#

It was basically fans of Xu Yanzhi causing a fuss, but neither the production crew nor Xu Yanzi herself had made any response.

"Without any reason, they have replaced our sister, we demand an explanation."

"Has capital intervened again, huh? Don’t find someone like the Jiang family’s vase to ruin the show next door."

Jiang Mian chuckled lightly. For such matters, she had to get dragged in too.

Like owner, like fans, all the same.

Luo Ting: "There’s a red carpet event tomorrow that initially didn’t invite us, but now, due to the drama team’s situation, they’ve sent an invitation."

Between the lines, it meant attending the red carpet event tomorrow.

Jiang Mian suddenly felt a pang in her waist.

Jiang Xiaomian: "Can I take medical leave?"

Luo Ting: "??? You think it’s like school?"

Jiang Xiaomian: "I have a sprained waist, just saw off the doctor."

...

The next day.

When Jiang Mian woke up, the living room coffee table was covered with gifts of various sizes.

What the heck? Donkey-hide gelatin, fish maw, bird’s nests, sea cucumbers...

They were all over the couch.

"Auntie, what is all this?"

"Madam, you’re up. These are tonics sent over from various families to help you regain your strength and recover from your waist injury."

Jiang Mian: "..."

Felt like cursing.

She should’ve silenced Chen Yanyu’s big mouth before leaving home last night.

Now the entire wealthy circle would spread the rumor about Mrs. Fu’s marital injury.

Her phone started to vibrate. Jiang Mian glanced at the caller ID—

She didn’t want to pick up.

After ten seconds, the ringing persisted, and she braced herself to answer, "Mom, what’s up so early?"

"Xuanxuan, your dad and I bought you some things; we’ve sent them over. You’re at home today, right? Have the housekeeper stew them for you to eat, and there’s some body ointment..."

"Mom, stop!"

She could already guess what Ms. Jiang was about to say next.

"About these kind of things, even your parents know."

She might as well find a place to bury herself alive.

On the other end of the phone, Jiang Yutian was grinning from ear to ear, "Alright, alright, I won’t talk about it. You and Xiao Chen be careful, health is the capital of revolution for young people."

After hanging up, Jiang Mian angrily began typing on her phone—

Jiang Xiaomian: "Fu Sichen!!! Silence Chen Yanyu for me!!!"

Jiang Xiaomian: "I’ll be disgraced because of you, you’re responsible!!!"

Slutty Dog: "Mhm, I’ll take responsibility."

Jiang Mian: Dead, do not disturb.
