“Don’t mention it.” No matter if it was the earlier scenario or Meng Ping’s pay, it was just something she did with saying a few words. “I made some soup for you.”
The soup was made by Yun Xiangxiang herself. Yun Xiangxiang asked Wang Yong to stay at home to keep an eye on Yun Lin. Du Changrong asked everyone in the crew to have boxed rice for meals.
Since Yun Xiangxiang did not want to be accused of getting special treatment, and also because the boxed rice that Du Changrong ordered was decent, she agreed after bringing a lot of sauces with her.
“Thank you,” Meng Ping was moved. Her eyes reddened as her heart was filled with an indescribable warmth.
“Why isn’t there anyone taking care of you?” Yun Xiangxiang poured some of the soup and fed it to her. She did not see anyone by Meng Ping’s side.
“I hired a healthcare worker. The person can only come tomorrow,” Meng Ping was embarrassed. “I can call the nurse if anything comes up.”
“What about your family?” Yun Xiangxiang frowned. The nurses in hospitals were busy as bees. They would overlook some details from time to time.
“My parents have passed away. My siblings are still in school…,” Meng Ping whispered.
Her parents died in an accident when she was in Grade Twelve. Only a pair of twins of mixed sex and herself survived. Her uncles set their gazes on the measly assets her parents had. As she had just come of age, she grit her teeth and raised her sister and brother who were eight years younger than her.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know…,” Yun Xiangxiang was apologetic.
“It’s fine. You’re just concerned about me,” Meng Ping shook her head.
Yun Xiangxiang finally understood why Meng Ping was having a hard life. She was supporting two siblings who were in Grade Eleven. She was carrying a heavy burden on her shoulders.
She spent a hefty sum of money for her surgery this time. She must be in a financially worse position now.
“Sister Ping, if you are gone, your brother and sister will be very sad,” Yun Xiangxiang advised her indirectly.
“Don’t worry. I understand. After that near-death experience, I won’t dare to push myself so much anymore,” Meng Ping finally understood it.
She was desperate for money, but she ended up having to fork out even more of it. Even if she wanted to make money, she had to rest up first.
Yun Xiangxiang left the hospital after a short chat with Meng Ping. She really wanted to go shopping.
She wore a face mask and a baseball cap, donning an oversized denim attire on purpose. It was fortunate she was not recognized in the hospital. She wanted to go shopping…
Forget it. Yun Xiangxiang got into the car dejectedly and returned to the hotel she was staying at temporarily. The receptionist told her she had a package to receive.
“It’s so small. What is it?” As she held the box in her hand, Coco asked curiously.
“It’s a little box of pendant that I asked to be custom made,” Yun Xiangxiang took it and went upstairs.
She took out various ropes of color from her drawer and picked out three of it. She started swiftly threading them together. With her deft fingers, a wristrope tied in a double fisherman’s knot was quickly halfway done. She then took out a little trinket from the box. It was a crown-wearing cloud made out of pure silver.
She slid the trinket into the wristrope before continuing to make it. Before entering the entertainment industry, Yun Xiangxiang did a lot of handicraft in her past life.
She would occasionally make a few trinkets after entering the industry. She never forgot simple things like these.
“Xiangxiang, why are you doing this?” Coco thought it looked good. She wore the one Yun Xiangxiang made on her wrist.
“You can take this one,” Yun Xiangxiang took another three of the colorful ropes. Her fingers made quick work of them. “There will be fans coming for a visit a few days later. I’m preparing some little gifts for them.”
“I have only heard of fans bringing gifts for their idol. Never heard of any idols making gifts for their fans,” Coco was shocked.
“I don’t interact much with them. They help me out a lot usually. This isn’t really any hard work either. Just a token of my appreciation,” Yun Xiangxiang unlocked her phone and started playing the voice recording Tao Manni and the girls sent her.
She made the wristropes as she listened to the recording of the lecture. Coco left her alone to her own devices.
She made the wristropes at a blisteringly fast pace. It took her ten minutes to make one in the beginning, but she only needed five minutes to finish one after that.

The ropes in hues of brown, gray, and black were masculine. The ones in light yellow, sky blue, and pastel were feminine.
Yun Xiangxiang made fifty of those wristropes in an afternoon.
“Are there even that many people visiting?” Coco looked at the hill of wristropes.
“If I only give them to those who will be visiting, the others may feel alienated. The rest will be put on Weibo as lucky draws,” Yun Xiangxiang smiled before continuing.
Song Meng told her there would be five fans coming over for the visit. Yun Xiangxiang made a hundred and five of the wristropes. One hundred of them would be given away to selected fans on Weibo. This was her first time doing a giveaway for her fans.
Two days later, Du Changrong took the new character over to discuss with Yun Xiangxiang. She immediately notified Yi Yan.
Yi Yan arrived faster than she thought. He rushed here through the night without telling Yun Xiangxiang. Du Changrong and Yun Xiangxiang only knew about it the next day.
The attention Yi Yan paid alone was satisfying Du Changrong. Du Changrong was lenient toward him during the audition. Finally, this character was taken by Yi Yan.
Du Changrong gave him the script and asked him to understand it quickly. The fashion designer would design the outfit for him. They would rent one if they found anything that fitted him.
Yun Xiangxiang had a lot to film on the day of her fans’ visit.
This was Yun Xiangxiang’s first time meeting her fans. Two of them were boys, and the other three were girls. Two were undergraduates in Chongqing’s local university, one was a highschooler, and the rest of them were youngsters who just stepped into society. Today was a weekend.
The youngest one, who was a highschooler, was a girl. She couldn’t stop herself from crying when she saw Yun Xiangxiang. Yun Xiangxiang tried to coax her for a while and she took out the gift she prepared beforehand.
She thought she could make the little girl smile, but she cried even louder.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry. With how hideous I look, I could only scare little kids according to legends. I don’t really expect to horrify a young, pretty lady into tears today,” Yun Xiangxiang patted the highschooler’s back gently.
The young lady sobbed, “I…I just think you’re a really nice person. I really want to get into Qingdao University, but I could only score six hundred marks after working so hard for two years. I feel useless. Uwah…”
She started crying again as she spoke.
“Will you stop being my fan if you do not manage to get into Qingdao University?” Yun Xiangxiang asked.
The young lady shook her head vehemently.
Yun Xiangxiang asked again, “Will I no longer be myself if you enrol in another university?”
The young lady shook her head again.
“That’s right. You see, you can see me even if you’re not in Qingdao University right now. No matter whether you can get into Qingdao or not, you and I will never change.”
The young lady’s teary eyes became cloudy. She seemed to understand, yet at the same time, she did not.
“I can’t only have fans from Qingdao University. After all, I need more people from other places to like me, right?”
The young lady’s eyes slowly lit up.
Yun Xiangxiang needed to give her the feeling of a mission right now. Or else, she might fail in her entrance exam if she attended it in this state.
As she saw the light and resolve slowly growing in the young lady’s eyes, Yun Xiangxiang was relieved. She asked for leave from Du Changrong and located a hotpot shop near them to enjoy some hotpot with her fans.
The group of five all posted their photos online, to the ire of a large group of fans. Yun Xiangxiang quickly posted a Weibo status.
[Actress Yun Xiangxiang V: One hundred wristropes made by yours truly. Selecting the winners from those who repost this status. Limited to fans.]
Her fans were fired up after the status was posted. But supply obviously couldn’t meet demand.
A certain online shop who smelled a business opportunity rushed to make the same model throughout the night. The sales number broke a hundred thousand in one night. That would be another story.
