When Yue Ran heard this, he finally understood why Shi Xinxin had ordered so many sweet desserts like mangoes.
From that time on, Yue Ran knew that Shi Xinxin especially liked to eat mangoes, so he would buy her some from time to time. Today, when Yue Ran came, he happened to see someone selling mangoes by the roadside. The mangoes were big, so he bought some to bring over, which Shi Xinxin also liked to eat.
Yue Ran brought the mangoes to Shi Xinxin's place. He placed them directly on Shi Xinxin's desk. When she saw the mangoes, she looked at Yue Ran and asked, "What does this mean?"
"I remember you told me that your favorite fruit is mangoes. I happened to see someone selling mangoes by the roadside today, so I bought some and brought them to you."
However, Shi Xinxin said, "You should take them back. I don't need them."
"Xinxin, these are for you. Don't you like them?"
Shi Xinxin stood up, changed into a jacket, and said, "Please take them back. I don't like them."
"Why? You told me before that mangoes were your favorite."
Hearing Yue Ran's words, Shi Xinxin smiled helplessly and said, "What I tell you, you believe is what it is. I said I liked mangoes, but that was before. It's not now. Liking them before doesn't mean I like them now. I don't like mangoes now. Please take them away."
"Xinxin, why?"
"Why what?"
"Why do you pretend not to see me? Why are you so indifferent?"
"I'm not. I think we need to keep some distance. We are actors. We can have a cooperative relationship."
After Shi Xinxin finished speaking, she left. Yue Ran looked at the bag of mangoes on the table, feeling somewhat ridiculous.
After that, no matter how well Yue Ran treated Shi Xinxin, she still acted as if she didn't see him. They were now like the most familiar strangers.
One day, they needed to film an explosion scene. The explosion was very dangerous, and actors could be injured if they were not careful. The force of the explosion was immense, and the damage it could cause was significant, so extra precautions were necessary.
When the agent heard that this scene was to be filmed today, he specifically instructed Shi Xinxin, "Xinxin, you must be extra careful during this scene. Explosions are no joke. Their power is comparable to bombs. If you're not careful, you could be seriously injured and end up in the hospital. So, be extra cautious and protect yourself while filming this scene."
"Don't worry! The prop masters will be careful, so you don't need to worry at all."
However, an accident still occurred.
Yue Ran and Shi Xinxin were supposed to pass through the explosion area during this scene. When Shi Xinxin and Yue Ran passed through, it should have been fine.
The explosion area was far from both of them, so it seemed like they were passing through when in reality, they were quite far apart. As long as the camera angle was right, there would be no problem, and they would be safe.
But as Shi Xinxin passed through the explosion zone, one part of the explosion area was not adjusted correctly.
As Shi Xinxin was passing, she was right at the edge of the adjusted explosion zone and could easily have been injured. When the explosion occurred, Shi Xinxin was supposed to be the one injured, but Yue Ran, with his quick reflexes, noticed the danger. He pushed Shi Xinxin away and shielded her from the blast himself.
Shi Xinxin was pushed aside and was unharmed, but it was a different story for Yue Ran. He was severely injured, collapsed on the ground, and lost consciousness. His body was soaked in blood, and he lay in a pool of it.
Seeing the scene, the director's crew rushed to Shi Xinxin and Yue Ran's side. They were very worried when they saw the unexpected accident.
The moment Shi Xinxin saw Yue Ran injured on the ground, she was stunned. She rushed to Yue Ran's side, and when she saw the blood flowing from his body, she was completely shocked.
"Yue Ran, Yue Ran, wake up."
Yue Ran weakly opened his eyes. Seeing that Shi Xinxin was safe, he was relieved. He managed a weak smile and looked at Shi Xinxin, "It's good that you're okay. I'm glad you're fine."
"Yue Ran, you fool, why did you save me? If you hadn't saved me, you wouldn't be like this now. I treated you that way, and you still saved me. Why did you save me?"
"It's good that you're okay. As long as you're okay, everything is fine. I can't bear to see you get hurt. I'd rather get hurt myself than see you get hurt."
After saying this, Yue Ran lost consciousness. Shi Xinxin was very worried when she saw Yue Ran lose consciousness. "Yue Ran, wake up! Don't fall asleep!"
"Call 120! What are you all standing around for?" Shi Xinxin shouted at the director's crew.
Soon, an ambulance arrived, and Yue Ran was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Shi Xinxin was extremely worried about Yue Ran's life. Yue Ran was injured because he saved her. If he hadn't saved her then, he wouldn't be in this situation now.
Now, in addition to guilt towards Yue Ran, Shi Xinxin's eyes also held a complex emotion.
Shi Xinxin followed Yue Ran to the hospital when he was sent there. Upon arrival, Yue Ran was quickly taken into the operating room for emergency surgery. Shi Xinxin, along with her agent and some crew members, waited outside.
The director looked at the prop master with great anger. "How could you do your job? You know the dangers of explosions, and yet you acted like this. Now there's a problem. I told you to check everything carefully and not let any issues arise. Is this how you checked it?!"
The prop master looked helpless and apologetic. "Director, I did check it thoroughly. I don't know how this happened. I didn't want this to happen either!"
"You don't know, you don't know, do you think I know? This was your responsibility, and this is how you handled it. Now that there's a problem, what do you propose we do?"
Shi Xinxin listened to the director scolding the prop master, feeling very annoyed. She walked up to the director and said, "Enough. This is a hospital, not a film set. We can talk about this later. Please be quiet here. Don't you know that loud noises are not allowed in hospitals?!"
Soon, the operating room lights turned off, and the doctor came out. Shi Xinxin immediately rushed to the doctor's side. "Doctor, how is he?"
"The patient is not in immediate danger, so you don't need to worry. However, after the patient wakes up, you must take good care of him. Although the shrapnel from the explosion did not hit any vital areas, his body has still sustained some injuries."
