397 The Heart of Compassion
Yin Jiuling was scolded so much that she began loathing herself. She even committed acts of self-harm. At this point, she had almost forgotten about her original goal to sing.
Song Ci looked at Yin Jiuling. The latter’s head was lowered. She was like a pitiful stray cat.
Yin Jiuling’s manager is a horrible person. Even David did not push “Song Ci” this far. It was no surprise that Yin Jiuling cried at the staircase. Coupled with her soft personality, depression was basically unavoidable.
Song Ci sighed in her heart, feeling a little sympathetic.
Yin Jiuling entered Song Ci’s car. The driver turned on the heater and Yang Haoran poured a glass of hot water for her. Only then did she recover from the cold. Yin Jiuling’s hands and feet were no longer as stiff as before. She looked at the glass of water and began to feel embarrassed.
‘Did she see Director Liang and Brother Lin scolding me?’
At this moment, Yin Jiuling’s self-esteem was at rock bottom.
Song Ci knew how she felt and just stayed quiet.
After a while, Yang Haoran asked, “Do you have your room’s key card?”
“Yes.”
Yin Jiuling nodded. She began rummaging through her outfit for it.
‘Oh no… It’s in my coat and that has been taken away by Brother Lin.’
Yin Jiuling blinked unnaturally and said in a low voice, “Actually, my manager took it.”
Yang Haoran did not know what else to say. What if Yin Jiuling’s manager had not returned to the hotel yet? This young lady would be stranded for the night. Moreover, she was dressed so scantily. Something bad might happen.
Suddenly, Song Cia asked, “Are you tired?”
“Huh?”
“If you’re not, I can practice acting with you. I saw your performance today. There’s a lot of room for improvement.”
Yin Jiuling quickly nodded, but she asked worriedly, “Don’t you need to rest?”
Song Ci smiled.
“I don’t sleep that early.”
“I see… Thank you.”
If they were not in a car, Yin Jiuling would have stood up and bowed to Song Ci.
“You’re welcome.”
Yin Jiuling was so touched by Song Ci’s kindness that she almost cried. She quickly looked down and stayed quiet.
Song Ci felt that she was really pitiful.
After returning to the hotel, Yin Jiuling said, “I’m going to change first.”
“Okay.”
Song Ci gave Yin Jiuling her room number before going upstairs.
Shortly after, Yin Jiuling came. She was still wearing her costume.
Yin Jiuling said awkwardly, “Brother Lin hasn’t returned yet.”
‘He’s purposely trying to make her suffer. If she called, I bet he wouldn’t answer. Even if he did, he would just scold her.’
With that thought in mind, Song Ci said, “It’s okay. Come in.”
Song Ci also called Yang Haoran over.
When Yang Haoran saw Yin Jiuling’s condition, he immediately understood the situation.
Song Ci called Yang Haoran over because she needed an extra person for Yin Jiuling’s scene. She remembered there was a man involved.
The scene was rather simple. It involved the boss of a criminal gang, codenamed Old Chun. He brought his subordinates to a bar to enjoy themselves. As Old Chun’s lover, Haitang had to drink with him. Subsequently, a spy would ask, “Sister Haitang, who is this person? Why do you have to accompany him?”
