CHAPTER 652: CHAPTER 652: PREPARING TO STEP IN AND HELP
When Chen Bin woke up from his coma, he found Geng Like looking at him with a face full of worry.
"Where is this?"
"This is the hospital. Thank goodness, you’ve finally woken up!"
"How long was I unconscious?"
"From yesterday afternoon until now, roughly fifteen hours."
At this point, Geng Like was still looking at Chen Bin nervously.
"How are you feeling now? Is there any discomfort?"
"I... why can’t I move?"
Hearing this, Geng Like was so scared that she immediately went to lift Chen Bin’s arm.
As soon as she let go, his arm dropped right back onto the bed, looking limp like it had no bones.
"Oh my god, how could this happen?!"
Geng Like quickly lifted the quilt to check Chen Bin’s leg, but it was the same.
As she was at a loss, Chen Bin’s voice suddenly rang out full of fear.
"I’m doomed, am I going to be disabled? How am I going to live like this?"
Geng Like was already anxious, and this situation almost brought her to tears.
"The doctor said you had a mild concussion, nothing serious. How could this... how could this be?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Geng Like immediately turned and started walking out of the ward.
Just then, Chen Bin quickly got out of bed and grabbed her arm.
"Where are you going? I’m a patient now, I need care."
Geng Like shook his hand off immediately and said urgently.
"I’m going to find a doctor, we can’t let you lie here forever... huh? You’re fine?!"
Just when Geng Like was still confused, she caught sight of Chen Bin’s teasing expression.
After realizing what was happening, she instantly became furious, grabbing the pillow from the bed and swinging it at Chen Bin’s head.
"You bastard, you dared to trick me, I’ll fight you!"
Chen Bin blocked a few hits with his hands, then grabbed the pillow when Geng Like wasn’t paying attention and tossed it aside.
This made her even more furious, and she started hitting Chen Bin with her fists.
Chen Bin took the opportunity to pin her down on the bed and said in a low voice.
"You silly girl, do you think you can beat me?"
"Liar, let go of me!"
Geng Like struggled a couple of times but couldn’t break free.
Chen Bin continued to laugh and said, "I didn’t lie to you, I just wanted to test my acting skills. How was it, good enough to be an actor, right?"
"Acting my ass! If it wasn’t for..."
Before Geng Like could finish, Chen Bin suddenly ducked his head low.
Seeing him about to kiss her, she quickly closed her eyes in fright.
But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement, and she heard his teasing voice instead.
"Why are you closing your eyes in broad daylight?"
A surge of anger welled up in her heart, and just as Geng Like opened her eyes, Chen Bin kissed her.
Realizing she was being teased again, she started to struggle desperately.
But Chen Bin was too heavy, pressing down on her like a mountain, and she couldn’t push him away.
As the oxygen around her became scarce, Geng Like gradually stopped struggling.
Seeing this, Chen Bin stopped kissing and stood up contentedly.
Actually, he wanted to take the opportunity to win her over, but not knowing Geng Like’s exact identity, Chen Bin didn’t dare to act rashly.
"After I passed out, you must have been very worried, right?"
Forcibly pushing Chen Bin away, Geng Like said angrily.
"No way, it would be better if you were dead!"
Hearing this, Chen Bin couldn’t help but say.
"How can you be so heartless? I almost got crushed saving you, and you still say that to me."
"I’m heartless? You’re the one who was brainless! There was such a big air mattress in front, yet you had to show off. Serves you right for falling!"
Even though her words were like that, Geng Like was deeply touched inside.
She had never imagined someone would risk their life to save her.
When Chen Bin was sent to the emergency room, she cried her eyes out.
If it hadn’t been for Jin Jiangkou holding her back, she wouldn’t have finished filming.
After being discharged, Chen Bin had a meal with all the cast members.
Then, he immediately flew to the Imperial Capital.
The president of Wanyu Group had to sell off assets due to personal reasons.
"Wanyu Weekly" is one of the top three print media in Huaxia, and once on the market, it attracted many buyers’ interest.
Upon learning this, Chen Bin immediately contacted Ma Juan.
He wanted her to assist him in acquiring "Wanyu Weekly," and he planned to resell it to Ma Juan after he left the Provincial Radio and Television Group.
For Chen Bin’s request, Ma Juan always obliged and immediately agreed.
On the afternoon of the day he arrived in the Imperial Capital, Chen Bin met with the president of Wanyu Group, with Ma Juan’s help.
Chen Bin’s Yanxi Station was quite famous in the industry, so the president of Wanyu Group was willing to sell.
After some negotiation, both parties signed the official agreement.
From then on, "Wanyu Weekly" officially became an asset under the Yanxi Province Radio and Television Group.
After hearing this news, Niu Kuipeng specifically invited Chen Bin to a tea house.
They chatted about the "Wanyu Weekly" deal while having tea, and once they finished, Niu Kuipeng suddenly said.
"Wen Wan has returned to the country."
"Didn’t she run off with some rich guy? Why is she back?"
In Chen Bin’s memory, the name Wen Wan was already a thing of the past.
Now hearing it again, he even felt a bit estranged.
Niu Kuipeng sighed, looking regretful.
"The rich guy she met back then was a con artist. He teamed up with her cousin to transfer all her assets. I heard Wen Wan even had to borrow money for her ticket back."
After sipping some tea, Chen Bin responded slowly: "I always felt her cousin wasn’t a good person, and it turns out I was right."
Niu Kuipeng continued, "Wen Wan’s mother is severely ill and urgently needs a large sum of money. Wen Wan offended everyone in the industry back then, and now no one is willing to lend her money. Her mother probably won’t last much longer."
Although Chen Bin was very displeased with Wen Wan from their last collaboration, hearing about her misfortune, he couldn’t help but feel a little sympathetic.
"She was so popular before; if she makes a comeback, she could probably earn a lot again."
"You know the elimination rate in the entertainment industry is fast. Wen Wan is outdated now, and her reputation in the industry isn’t good. Who would take the risk to rebuild her?"
"From what you’re saying, you’re planning to help?"
"I would like to help, but everyone in the company thinks she’s not worth it. Even if I did sign her, I probably couldn’t bring her back to her peak. So I think the only person who can help Wen Wan is you!"
This surprised Chen Bin a little, "Stop flattering me, I can’t even make Ni Baige famous, let alone Wen Wan, who’s already outdated."
"Ni Baige is an exception, that doesn’t prove anything. Wen Wan is different, her singing is great, and she already has a fan base. If you use your resources to build her up, she might really make a comeback."
In Niu Kuipeng’s view, Wen Wan is a natural singer, and letting such talent go to waste is a huge pity.
So he genuinely sought Chen Bin’s help in reviving Wen Wan’s career.
After some thought, Chen Bin asked, "Then contact Wen Wan, I want to meet and talk with her in person..."
