Chapter 91

Unable to break through the triple defense formed by Liu Qin, Yang Mi, and the hospital's young nurse, Luoyang could only obediently continue to lie in the hospital and recuperate over the next two days.

Yang Mi, however, displayed the qualities of a virtuous wife and mother, buying all sorts of nourishing foods for Luoyang every day, making him feel like a pregnant woman on maternity leave.

As Luoyang was about to be discharged, Liu Qin contacted the program team.

As soon as the call was connected, Yang Zhi, the chief director of "Next Stop: Queen," said from Liu Qin's phone, "Can you come to the program team now? We need to discuss some matters."

Liu Qin glanced at Luoyang, who directly took her phone and said, "We'll be there in an hour."

On the other end of the line, Yang Zhi didn't expect the person answering the phone to suddenly change from Liu Qin to a stranger, and subconsciously asked, "Who are you?"

Luoyang smiled faintly and said, "I'm Liu Qin's brother."

"You're taking advantage of me!" Liu Qin glared at Luoyang, though she didn't shout it out loud; her expression was easy to understand.

Yang Mi, standing nearby, watched Luoyang make the call with a puzzled look on her face.

Over the past two days, she found it increasingly difficult to understand the relationship between Luoyang and Liu Qin.

At first, she thought they were a couple, otherwise, how could they have slept in the same bed without any reservations that morning.

But later, she realized that although Luoyang and Liu Qin were close, there was no hint of any romantic involvement. They were more like a pair of close friends, bickering and joking naturally.

This left Yang Mi feeling quite confused.

Could it be... they were just friends?

Could a man and a woman have a purely platonic relationship?

Could they be so pure that lying in the same bed didn't seem wrong at all?

While Yang Mi was lost in thought, Luoyang had already ended the call: "We'll meet in an hour."

"How did it go?" Liu Qin looked at Luoyang.

"Of course, we're going to clean up your mess," Luoyang stretched, feeling that his injuries were mostly healed.

The only lingering effect was the obvious scratches on his face from the car accident, giving him a fierce look despite his otherwise handsome appearance.

Liu Qin, dissatisfied, said, "Do you like cleaning up after girls?"

Although she had heard similar conversations over the past two days, Yang Mi still blushed deeply.

Luoyang, oblivious to his influence on the young girl, glanced at Liu Qin and said, "Are you even a girl?"

"Am I?" Liu Qin looked at Yang Mi.

Yang Mi nodded rapidly, like a chick pecking at grain: "Yes, yes, yes."

Luoyang waved his hand and said, "Alright, you two go out. I need to change clothes. This hospital gown looks just like the one from Xiangyang Mental Hospital."

Liu Qin pouted and walked out of the ward with Yang Mi, closing the door behind them.

A few minutes later, Luoyang changed his clothes, and the three of them left the hospital, getting into a taxi bound for the program team.

——

On the street, the taxi was moving.

Inside the taxi, Liu Qin looked at Luoyang and asked, "What about the driver who caused your car accident?"

Yang Mi quickly answered, "The driver was detained by the police for speeding and has already paid some compensation to Luoyang."

"Compensation? So you're letting him off?" Liu Qin said, somewhat displeased. "Luoyang, why don't we find a chance to give him a taste of his own medicine?"

Yang Mi, hearing this, looked at Liu Qin with fear, once again feeling that this idol was different from what she had imagined.

Luoyang, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them and said, "Liu Sannian, you need to change your attitude. Look at how you've scared Yang Mi."

Of course, he knew what Liu Qin meant by "giving him a taste of his own medicine."

In his previous life, during college, when his girlfriend was poached, it was Liu Qin who had taken him to secretly teach the poacher a lesson at night.

He had thought that with Liu Qin's femininity already at 99%, even if she didn't learn to be reserved and ladylike, she should at least be more reasonable.

But unexpectedly, because someone had hit him, Liu Qin was now thinking of hitting the person with a blunt object, a thought so violent that it fit the saying "the most venomous are women."

Liu Qin said righteously, "This driver dared to speed on the streets of Shanghai, showing a complete lack of conscience. I just want to do something for the people."

Luoyang sneered, "If you really want to do something for the people, why don't you just go and commit suicide?"

"Hey, can you talk properly? Do you have to be so sarcastic every day!" Liu Qin was furious: "Besides, I'm doing this for your own good, not for nothing."

"Alright, I know you mean well."

Luoyang's words made Liu Qin's face look a bit better, but his next words made her face turn dark again: "But you're best at doing good deeds that turn out badly."

She glared at Luoyang, emphasizing each word, "Friendship over!"

"Can I ask what 'friendship over' means?"

Yang Mi couldn't quite understand this modern term. Being with Luoyang and Liu Qin often made her feel like she couldn't keep up.

Luoyang explained with a smile, "Friendship over means the end of a friendship."

"The end of a friendship? Sister Qin, are you going to end your friendship with Luoyang?" Yang Mi looked at Liu Qin in surprise.

Liu Qin, fuming, said, "I'm not just ending our friendship; I'm going to make a voodoo doll of Luoyang and stab it every day."

"Hehe, I didn't know Sister Qin was so good at joking. You're really too cute," Yang Mi said with a smile.

"Can you stop calling me cute..." Liu Qin was at a loss for words.

She began to try to brainwash Yang Mi: "You can describe me as beautiful, stunning, a goddess, and so on. I can accept all of these because that's who I am, and I can't argue with people who have good taste."

Luoyang rolled his eyes.

Yang Mi, however, nodded seriously, as if she had taken Liu Qin's words to heart.

"By the way, I have another question: why do you always call me 'Da Mi Mi'?" Yang Mi, once again curious, looked at Luoyang and Liu Qin with wide, blinking eyes.

Luoyang and Liu Qin exchanged a glance, then looked at Yang Mi... at her chest.

"What do you think?"

"I think 'Island of the Damned' is bigger."

"I heard they're fake. I think 'Tiny Times' isn't small either."

"The acting in that was terrible. I think 'I Am the Witness' looks more natural."

"That doesn't work either. In the end, 'Island of the Damned' is more convincing, after all, it's the third development."

"Then can you explain why she suddenly shrank after the third development? Maybe she lost weight?"

Yang Mi, listening to Liu Qin and Luoyang's conversation, felt very strange: "Why are they talking about things I can't understand again..."
