CHAPTER 444: CHAPTER 254: A STRONG SLAP IN THE FACE

Compared to Shu Wan, other people were obviously more focused on Wang Xiao’s discharge from the hospital, because, after all, the love of spectacle is something etched into the bones of the Hua Country people.

The media reporters, aiming for popularity, had been standing guard at the hospital entrance from early on, wanting to get the latest news the moment it became available.

When Shu Wan’s figure appeared at the hospital entrance, everyone hurriedly surrounded her, "Shu Wan, are you here to visit Wang Xiao?"

"I heard Wang Xiao’s face can’t be healed, what compensation are you planning to give her?"

"Shu Wan, why don’t you speak, is it because you’re not prepared to compensate Wang Xiao?"

The reporters chattered away, but Shu Wan didn’t respond and continued to walk inside.

A reporter tried to extend his arm to block Shu Wan’s path, but with one glance from her, he stood as if electrocuted, visions of the fates that had befallen reporters who had offended Shu Wan in the past flashing through his mind.

No amount of advice could teach as effectively as historical experience; the reporter quickly withdrew his hand, allowing Shu Wan to enter.

As Shu Wan’s figure was about to disappear through the entrance, the crowd discussed assigning a few people to guard the east, south, and west entrances to prevent Shu Wan from slipping away.

At this moment, Shu Wan suddenly turned her head, "Go wait for me at that plaza over there, I’ll come over in a while."

After speaking, Shu Wan turned around and continued walking inside.

The reporters were a bit dumbfounded, "Does she mean she’ll come back later to accept an interview? Should we believe her?"

"As for Shu Wan, to tell the truth, she is someone who keeps her word."

"Alright, then we’ll wait for her over there."

Talking among themselves, the group of reporters obediently went to the spacious plaza to wait for Shu Wan.

Under Shu Wan’s influence, none realized that they were all reporters who usually hounded their interview subjects relentlessly, paying no mind to the interviewees’ desires, and yet this time, they obediently followed Shu Wan’s instructions.

Originally, the media hadn’t planned to broadcast live, but since Shu Wan had given them half an hour, and having nothing else to do, they decided not to let the opportunity for traffic and popularity go to waste.

Thus, everyone quickly started their live streams across various platforms, broadcasting to netizens who were eager for excitement about Wang Xiao’s discharge situation.

[I’m here, I’m here, has Wang Xiao been discharged? How’s the situation?]

[I heard Shu Wan also went to the hospital, she’s got some nerve, being so bold.]

[Why are you live streaming if the person hasn’t come out yet, hurry up and bring out the real scoop.]

With "Shu Wan," a topic of great popularity, attracting attention, the number of viewers in the live streams grew.

Eventually, it even climbed to the top spot on the platform’s trending search list, even though at this point, Shu Wan hadn’t even made an appearance yet.

As time passed bit by bit, just as the netizens began to think the reporters were playing them for fools, there was finally a stir at the hospital entrance, and Shu Wan walked toward them, accompanied by a few people.

Behind her, a slender figure with a face wrapped in gauze was being supported by others; it was clearly Wang Xiao.

As the main characters of the event arrived, the reporters picked up their equipment and ran towards Shu Wan.

Because the incident was so popular, there were dozens of media reporters gathered in the plaza, creating a huge, swarm-like crowd.

Shu Wan’s eyebrows furrowed, and her cool voice rose over the plaza, "Stop."

Actually, Shu Wan’s voice wasn’t loud, but she herself was the focus of everyone’s attention, and her demeanor carried an imposing authority when she cooled down; the previously noisy scene really did halt as if a pause button had been pressed.

"Can’t you see there’s a patient?"

As Shu Wan spoke, she stepped forward, and where she walked, the reporters took a step back.

Shu Wan walked a circle, and a clear space immediately opened up in the middle.

Before Shu Wan had a chance to speak, Li Si signaled to the people behind him to set up a three-sided wind shield tent, placed a chair inside, and then helped Wang Xiao to sit down.

"She has just been discharged, she can’t be out in the wind for too long, three minutes for interviews, you may begin now."

Shu Wan walked over to Wang Xiao’s side and spoke with a cold voice.

Everyone had just been stunned by Shu Wan, and it took a moment for them to react before they hurriedly moved forward to interview.

"Shu Wan, did you come especially for Wang Xiao? Why didn’t you support her just now?"

Shu Wan looked to the left, the question coming from a media outlet that was particularly critical of her.

Shu Wan looked at him as if he were a fool, "The one supporting her is a professional doctor, do you need me to perform superfluous acts for a show?"

The reporter had nothing to say and just as he prepared to ask a second question, Shu Wan had already turned to the right, "You go ahead and ask, but don’t ask such unprofessional questions like the one just now."
