"Uh... you're really well-prepared,"
Beyond that, Qin Hong didn't know what else to praise. Ding Yun was so well-prepared that it almost felt like she was setting a trap!
It was as if she deliberately lured Li Rong into doing something illegal,
So she could completely resolve this troublesome matter.
Because a normal person wouldn't be able to make such thorough preparations even when facing some danger.
However, they always handled cases based on actions, not intentions. No one is perfect, and Ding Yun herself was undeniably the victim. Therefore, there was no need to investigate further or question Ding Yun's motives.
So, in the end, they only asked Ding Yun to temporarily leave the earring and the bio-electric ring as evidence. They would return them to her after the case was resolved, and then they allowed her to leave. They also stated that if she still felt in danger, or if she thought the Li family might still persecute her,
She could apply for a protection order.
Given the current situation,
An application for a six-month protection order should be fine.
However, Ding Yun politely declined. She also took the opportunity to inquire which hospital her son had been taken to before leaving the security bureau and taking a taxi to the hospital to visit him. This time, she hadn't suffered much, but she had instead implicated her son, who had been brutally beaten by a group.
She still felt quite apologetic.
She even felt a little guilty.
Because she had indeed anticipated that Li Rong would not let things go easily, but she hadn't expected him to drag her son into it as well. It was truly an undeserved disaster.
This child hadn't enjoyed much happiness with her.
Instead, he had suffered in advance. What a tragic fate.
Half an hour later, Ding Yun arrived at the hospital. However, she didn't go in directly. Instead, she first went to a nearby restaurant and bought a pot of chicken soup, then carried the soup in.
A few hours ago, she had specifically told her son to eat dinner at her newly rented apartment. So, her son definitely wouldn't have been eating at the company cafeteria. Before he could even reach her place, he had been abducted by Li Rong's driver.
And the possibility of Li Rong politely inviting him to the old house and treating him to dinner,
Was even more minuscule.
So, if nothing unexpected happened, Liu Yuan probably hadn't had dinner yet. After being beaten and going hungry all this time, it was best for him to eat something, which was why Ding Yun had specifically brought chicken soup to see him.
Poor child. She couldn't compensate him in other ways for now, so she could only feed him more delicious food.
After entering the hospital and making a few inquiries, Ding Yun found her son's ward. She pushed open the door and, instead of seeing a pained Liu Yuan, or a lifeless Liu Yuan lying motionlessly on the bed, she was surprisingly met with Liu Yuan sitting on the hospital bed, staring at his phone and chuckling foolishly. He had a face full of injuries, yet he didn't show the slightest bit of pain. He looked somewhat abnormal.
"Uh, A Yuan, what are you smiling about?"
After quickly closing the ward door, Ding Yun immediately walked briskly to the bedside with the chicken soup, put down the soup.
Then she asked with concern.
Had he accidentally hit his head earlier?
It was only then that Liu Yuan realized his mother had arrived. He twisted his neck and moved his body, feeling a sharp pain. His smiling face turned into a grimace:
"Hiss~ Ah~ It hurts so much, Mom, you're here.
I was just looking at my followers, which have increased by several hundred thousand. This beating was really worth it. I participated in that talent show, and only gained 100,000 followers by the time I was eliminated. More than 80,000 of those were bought for me by the company. I never expected that just by being beaten on a live stream, I'd gain several hundred thousand followers.
And they're still increasing. People are also much more sympathetic than when I participated in the talent show. They all say they feel sorry for me. Ah, hiss, this beating was really worth it.
If only they had hit me a little lighter!"
Alright, as someone aspiring to make it in the entertainment industry, it was quite reasonable for him to be happy about gaining hundreds of thousands of followers suddenly, and to even be so happy that he almost ignored the pain in his body. It was very reasonable.
It just made him seem a bit slow-witted.
"So, this is considered an 'abuse-to-gain-fans' strategy?
Oh, forget it, forget it. Put your phone aside for now. You haven't had dinner yet, have you? I specifically bought you a pot of chicken soup. Drink this first.
By the way, what did the doctor say?
You're not seriously injured, just superficial wounds, right!"
Ding Yun didn't want to dampen his spirits at this moment, so she bypassed the matter with a single sentence, pushed the pot of chicken soup she had bought forward, and gestured for him to drink it quickly.
At the same time, she casually inquired about his injuries.
After the sharp pain from suddenly turning his head and body, Liu Yuan was a bit more cautious this time. He moved slowly and carefully. Seeing his difficulty in moving, Ding Yun simply pressed him back down.
She opened the takeout box and prepared to feed him.
Liu Yuan moved his arm, feeling the pain, and finally didn't refuse. While taking a break from drinking the chicken soup, he answered Ding Yun's earlier question:
"The doctor said it just looks serious, but in reality, there are no broken bones or serious injuries. There are bruises, etc. As long as it's properly cared for, there shouldn't be any scars. The pain is unavoidable, and it's estimated that it will take a long time to recover.
But those people were really brutal. I told them not to hit me in the face, but they kept hitting me in the face. I'm really afraid my face will be disfigured.
Now I don't have a high level of education or anything.
My entire future depends on my looks!"
"Don't be so dramatic. Do you really think you can rely on your looks for a lifetime? However, I don't object to you pursuing a career in the entertainment industry anymore. After all, the current situation is unclear. If you can make frequent appearances in the entertainment industry,
At least it will be a little safer.
But you still need to study. Even if you don't study academic subjects, you still need to learn other skills. No one in the entertainment industry can make it by just pretending to be foolish or by constantly being beaten.
Without any real skills, even if there's an opportunity, you won't be able to succeed. After all, even forced promotion is useless without any talent.
What's more, you don't even have the opportunity for forced promotion."
Although people can make a living by their looks nowadays, there's a lot of uncertainty involved. Ding Yun was also afraid he would go astray, so she specifically educated him.
He probably wouldn't like to hear these words.
But Ding Yun still had to say them.
"I know, but I'm actually happy today because my followers have increased. Mom, can you not spoil my mood!"
"You're happy even after being beaten like this?"
"It's called making the best of a bad situation. As long as I don't dwell on the unhappy things, I won't be so unhappy. The incident has already happened, so what's the point of being unhappy?
It's better to think about happy things.
Alright, Mom, you should be happy too. And quickly give me a chicken drumstick. I don't want to eat chicken breast anymore.
It's so dry.
Let's split the chicken drumsticks, one for each of us!"
"I don't want one. I like chicken wings. If you're taking the drumsticks, don't fight me for the chicken wings!"
...
