You! A cute little girl with a surprising contrast! You! A cool and aloof mature woman!

Hearing this, Wang Shaojun stopped asking about the special medicine.

After getting the medicine tonight, I'll go to Heavenly Palace Media tomorrow.

Speaking of which, it's been a while since he saw those two sisters. Their favorability hasn't increased much during this time. It seems he can't rely solely on them to conquer themselves.

He also needs to take some action, otherwise, having a Maidservant warm his bed every night isn't enough.

It's not that the Maidservant isn't good; on the contrary, she's not only breathtakingly beautiful, but her body proportions are also impeccable, like a robot, perfectly set when produced!

But in his heart, the Maidservant was like a robot, without much emotion, unless he gave an order.

For example: "You! Loli with a contrast! You! Royal Sister, aloof!"

Then they would execute the command, and the subsequent plot would be rather conventional.

Plus, with this weather, hot and cold, it's easy to get a runny nose!

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly burned with excitement. He hadn't been idle these past few days, visiting major Female Streamers during the day and increasing favorability to collect rewards at night.

It got harder and harder to find them later on, because he realized he had visited all Female Streamers with over 100,000 viewers. He didn't want to waste opportunities on those with fewer than 100,000, as the rewards from small streamers were too meager.

Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and opened TikTok.

Half an hour later!

He reluctantly put down his phone and sighed, "It seems I'll have to go to the international version."

Four in the afternoon!

Inside Heavenly Palace Media!

Ye Lingxue suddenly received a call from the hospital. At first, she was a bit confused, not understanding why the hospital would call her, as her mother's treatment fees were paid every Monday, and she had never fallen behind.

It wasn't until she answered the phone that a heavy voice came from the other end.

"Hello, may I speak to Miss Ye Lingxue?"

Hearing this tone, Ye Lingxue's heart inexplicably skipped a beat, and a bad premonition surged within her.

With a pounding heart, she replied, "Yes, it's me. Has something happened to my mother?"

The nurse on the other end was silent for a moment, then said, "Your mother... has been sent to the emergency room."

Hearing this, Ye Lingxue felt her heart being crushed by a huge mountain, making it hard to breathe. Her nose stung, and her eyes reddened. If she hadn't had support behind her, tears would probably have fallen by now.

"Hello? Miss Ye, are you listening?"

Ye Lingxue took a deep breath, her voice choked as she said, "Yes, yes, please tell me. We just spoke on the phone last night, why... why is this happening?"

Hearing her sorrowful tone, the nurse understood her feelings at that moment. She had some knowledge of the Ye family's situation; there were no male heirs in the entire family.

Her mother had late-stage cancer, and the chemotherapy costs had drained their savings. Now, the two sisters were relying on blood transfusions, but how could two girls bear such high expenses?

Thinking this, the nurse on the other end couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, your mother probably didn't want to burden you. She took a large amount of sleeping pills in the middle of the night. Fortunately, we discovered it and stopped her in time.

Half an hour ago, she tried to cut her wrists in the restroom. Luckily, the cleaning auntie discovered her in time, but she fainted due to excessive blood loss.

She's still in emergency treatment. You should know that your mother's body is already weak. With all this back and forth, we can't guarantee if we can save her. Please be mentally prepared.

Also, we hope you can come to the hospital."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'm coming back now. Please, you must save my mother."

Hearing the nurse's words, Ye Lingxue's emotions instantly spiraled out of control. She abruptly stood up from her seat, her voice trembling, and tears welling up in her eyes.

Seeing this, those around her looked puzzled, not understanding what was wrong with their company's celebrity.

Just then, Straw Hat happened to pass by, holding a cup of coffee. Seeing Ye Lingxue's appearance, she couldn't help but frown, and quickly stepped forward to ask, "Xiaoxue, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Looking at the woman in front of her, Ye Lingxue shook her head slightly, wiped away her tears, and forced a smile, "N-nothing."

With that, she quickly headed to Li Yi's office. At this time, Li Yi, having been tempered by Heavenly Palace Media's business during this period, had long shed his former youthful demeanor and matured considerably.

He had just finished signing a document and was about to ask Yu Weijie to go out for a meal when, at that moment, a knock came at his office door.

"Enter!"

Just as he thought it was his secretary, it turned out to be Ye Lingxue. What made him even more flustered was that her current state was clearly very bad.

His mood also turned terrible. Others might not know, but he was very clear that these two sisters were the company's darlings.

Now she was crying. If Wang Shaojun found out, he would surely skin him alive.

Thinking of this, how could he still sit? He quickly stood up and asked, "Lingxue, what's wrong? Did someone in the company bully you? Damn it, tell me, who is it? I'll make them regret coming into this world."

Hearing this, Ye Lingxue was momentarily stunned. Li Yi's words made her feel inexplicable.

"President Li, you've misunderstood. I'm here to ask for leave. I need to return to Deep City. Oh, and Lingxi will come too. I hope President Li approves."

Li Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, 'As long as she wasn't wronged, I almost wet my diapers from fright.'

"No problem, but you two must return in January. The company has arranged a drama for you sisters, a historical drama with two female leads. It will be your first work to appear on the big screen.

You can rest well at home during this time and adjust your condition. I'll have my secretary bring you the script later."

At this point, looking at Ye Lingxue's downcast face, his eyes narrowed. Logically, if it were anyone else in the company, they would be very happy to hear about playing a female lead.

But she seemed distracted. "Did something happen at home? If there's anything, you can tell me. The company is your second home, don't be shy with us."

He didn't say the latter half of the sentence, which was, 'Anyway, you'll be the boss's wives sooner or later.'

He thought to himself: 'How great would it be if I were a woman? Then I could share a bed with Brother Jun and wouldn't have to sit in the office every day.'

'Alas, what a pity, I'm a man. I sit in the office during the day, and when I get home, that Witch treats me like an orange, not letting me sleep until I'm squeezed dry.'

'To think that Young Master Li, who has dominated the dating scene for years, would eventually fall into the hands of that woman Yu Xinyi. Every time I think of that woman, my waist aches.'

'Damn it, why did college vacation start so early!'

Ye Lingxue did not mention the hospital matter, after all, Deep City Hospital was not bad, and they now had sufficient funds.

However, hearing Li Yi say this, she was still quite moved. "Thank you, President Li, I can handle it myself. I'll be leaving now."

Saying that, she turned and left without stopping.

Watching her departing back, Li Yi raised a hand to stroke his chin. His intuition told him that things were not that simple.

Family matters?

What kind of matter could make her cry uncontrollably at the company?

"Nine out of ten things are wrong! No, I have to report this to Brother Jun."

He then picked up his phone and dialed Wang Shaojun's number.
