Chapter 177 - Free Treatment
Once again the Internet was filled with comments demanding Ye Xin to leave the entertainment industry; the matter snowballed so quickly and unexpectedly.
Meanwhile, the production team for the drama version of Yi sighed in relief. Due to all the negativity surrounding Ye Xin, they had been forgotten.
Even Ye Cheng did not expect things to escalate to this extent. He thought it was best to send Ye Xin abroad to avoid all the attention. In regard to her acting career, it was highly unlikely that she would be able to turn it around. Some things were just fated. Ye Xin was unlucky to have met Song Ning. It was as though the duo was nemesis, born to be at odds with each other; only one or the other could be happy.
In fact, even on the Internet, there were astrological experts who gave their two cents, analyzing the two women’s fates. Some said that Ye Xin thrived using Ning Xia’s name and that she deserved her downfall for failing to respect her seniors and taking everything she had for granted. After all, Ye Xin had clearly disregarded Song Ning when Song Ning returned to the public eye. It was seen as Ye Xin being arrogant and showing her temperament as a wealthy young miss, unwilling to lower her head to build a good relationship with Song Ning whom she perceived as outdated.
In regard to Song Ning, the astrological experts said that Song Ning was born with good luck. Therefore, as soon as she appeared, Ye Xin began to decline.
Perhaps, if Ye Xin debuted without the title of Little Ning Xia, she would not have been so negatively impacted by Song Ning’s return. Moreover, the duo bore quite a resemblance to each other so it was unavoidable for people to compare them.
Many people also pointed fingers at Ye Xin’s management company, saying they were arrogant due to Ye Xin’s background. They were also criticized for trying to ride on the coattails of Ning Xia’s success by promoting Ye Xin as Little Ning Xia. Following the backlash, the company wanted to build a good relationship with Song Ning, but Mu Chen protected Song Ning so well that the company did not even have a chance to contact Song Ning. All they had in their hands now was Ye Xin, the Young Miss from the Ye family. Due to her background, even if her acting career was ruined, she could continue to live comfortably. However, the same could not be said for the company.
…
Cheng Che and Mu Chen did not expect such an outcome as well; everything was truly a coincidence.
Cheng Che sighed and asked, “Brother, do you believe in fate?”
Mu Chen remained silent.
Cheng Che continued to say, “Apart from fate, it’s really hard to explain this ‘coincidence’.”
After closing the file in his hand, Mu Chen calmly said, “Pay attention to the situation. They can do whatever they want as long as they don’t harm us. Song Ning’s mother was very passionate about charity when she was alive. The volunteer groups from Song Ning’s fan club are doing quite well so make sure to monitor the finances properly. If there are any problems, you can use my personal account to help out…”
“Alright!” Cheng Che readily agreed.
…
Song Ning did not pay attention to this matter at all. Since she was not particularly knowledgeable in this regard, she left the management of the charity to the professionals, Cheng Che and Mu Chen.
Instead, she decided to do what she could. There were many people who were sick in the poverty-stricken area so she proposed to the university and the hospital to form a volunteer group to head to the village to treat locals.
The university and hospital supported her idea, and it did not take long before the upper management of the university and hospital convened and selected a group of students and medical personnel to volunteer at the village regularly.
This was a first in M City so it gained a lot of attention immediately.
The media were in a frenzy.
Song Ning, who only had one work in her entire career and had retired from the entertainment industry, received unprecedented attention and respect from many people. Although she had left the entertainment industry, her fans continued to increase.
The majority of her fans were middle-aged people and young adults. Most of them were highly educated, mature, rational, and had stable incomes. They were unlike the young fans who were usually chaotic and would cause a commotion at the slightest thing.
Due to the charity work that attracted many people’s attention, the name ‘Ning Xia’ once again began to shine brightly.
…
Amid all the commotion, Song Ning only focused on her work and studies. She still wore her white coat and mask, working diligently at the hospital and concentrating on her studies.
Although she was the one who started the charity, she did not think she deserved the credit. She stayed silent and focused on her life instead. This attitude made even more people admire and respect her.
…
When Jiang Jin found out about this, she sighed emotionally. “Song Ning is a child blessed by the heavens. No matter where she goes or what she does, she always helps those around her.”
Sister Yu smiled as she replied, “That’s right. Our Young Madam is just like an angel. Despite her quiet personality, she’s like a ball of flames that brings warmth to everyone around her…”
