Chapter 161: Hand Warmer

"Come on! Time for your medicine!" Jiang Yun said, walking over to Wang Fengwan with a tall glass.

Wang Fengwan took the glass and swallowed the medicine. Jiang Yun then handed her the herbal infusion. Finally, Jiang Yun peeled a piece of candy for her. Jiang Yun’s task was complete.

"Ring!"

Jiang Yun’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen; it was He Ling. "Hello? What’s up, Teacher He?"

"Jiang Yun, I heard Fengwan is sick. Will you two still be able to come tomorrow?"

"Yes, we can! We hired a private doctor for her today, and she’s already better!" Jiang Yun replied.

"That’s good to hear!"

"Yeah!" Jiang Yun hung up and said, "I’m going to book the tickets. We leave tomorrow!"

"Okay!" Wang Fengwan nodded.

After returning to his room, Jiang Yun received another call, this time from Director Liu Guoqiang.

"Hello, Jiang Yun!"

"What is it, Director Liu?"

"I heard Mengya is sick. How is she now?"

"She’s just about recovered! I’m actually just about to book the tickets," Jiang Yun said.

"Let me handle the tickets."

"Alright then," Jiang Yun didn't refuse.

After hanging up, Jiang Yun frowned. How did everyone know Wang Fengwan was sick? And why were they all calling him to ask? He pondered it for a moment, found no answer, and decided not to dwell on it.

That evening, after updating his novel, Jiang Yun lay on his bed scrolling through his phone.

"Ding! Your friend Wang Fengwan has posted a new update!"

"Ding! Your friend Li Mengya has posted a new update!"

Curious, Jiang Yun clicked on Wang Fengwan’s post.

Wang Fengwan V: "Being sick is so miserable, but fortunately I have a celebrity caregiver looking after me. [Photo]"

"Sweat! So that’s what happened, Wang Fengwan made a post!" Jiang Yun clicked on the photo with curiosity.

"Sweat! Isn't that me in the picture?" Jiang Yun looked at the comments below, which were all from Wang Fengwan’s celebrity friends, including He Ling and Liu Guoqiang.

Jiang Yun then opened Li Mengya’s post.

Li Mengya V: "I can testify; I’m right here, and this celebrity caregiver is very attentive and knows how to take care of people! It makes me wonder if this celebrity caregiver is actually a portable hand warmer—he’s practically a best friend to all women! @Wang Fengwan V [Video]"

Black lines appeared on Jiang Yun’s forehead. This Li Mengya actually dared to roast him. He clicked on the video, which showed him peeling candy for Wang Fengwan.

Jiang Yun held his forehead, feeling a bit dizzy. His reputation had just collapsed like that! He immediately posted on Weibo.

Jiang Yun V: "Heaven be my witness, I really didn't! It was these two wretched creatures who set me up! @Li Mengya, @Wang Fengwan"

Jiang Yun’s Weibo post triggered a commotion.

"Woohoo! Old dog Jiang Yun posted on Weibo, everyone go look!"

"What is this nonsense the old dog Jiang Yun posted? I can’t make sense of it at all!"

"What, he called you a hand warmer, are you saying he wronged you?"

Not long after, Li Mengya posted again.

Li Mengya V: "This baby declares that I absolutely did not set Jiang Yun up. @Jiang Yun V"

"Hahaha, Li Mengya posted! Everyone go look!"

Consequently, everyone flocked to Li Mengya’s Weibo. Seeing the internet filled with comments calling him a "hand warmer," Jiang Yun was speechless. Fine, a hand warmer it is. He wouldn't stoop to their level. He decided to ignore the matter and fell into a deep sleep.

In her room, Li Mengya frowned when she saw Jiang Yun hadn't replied to her post. She called him directly. "Hey, Jiang Yun, why aren't you replying to my post?"

Jiang Yun, who had been trying to sleep, was jolted awake. "Big sister, what do you want me to say?"

"Say whatever you want, just hurry up and reply to my post!"

Speechless, Jiang Yun hung up, opened his phone, and replied.

Jiang Yun V: "I admit it, I am a hand warmer! @Li Mengya. Li Mengya V: This baby declares that I absolutely did not set Jiang Yun up. @Jiang Yun V!"

Satisfied with the reply, Li Mengya went to sleep.

"Sigh, what a disaster!" Having lost his mood for sleep, Jiang Yun sat up. "What should I do now?"

After thinking it over, his eyes lit up. He opened his laptop, logged into his 'Liu Sanyu' author account, and created a new book.

*Starting with a Song of Hypocrisy, Shocking the Concert!* Jiang Yun typed out the title and nodded in satisfaction. He planned to write about his own experiences. That’s right, this time he didn't redeem a novel from the system; he was writing an original.

After publishing three chapters, he felt satisfied and drifted off to sleep.

"Ring!"

Early the next morning, Jiang Yun was woken up by his alarm. He rubbed his eyes, brushed his teeth, and washed his face. After getting dressed and ready, he headed to Li Mengya’s room.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Click!" Li Mengya opened the door. "Come in!"

Jiang Yun walked in. Wang Fengwan was already up, looking stunning at her height of 1.8 meters.

"Did you order breakfast?" Jiang Yun asked.

"Already did!" Li Mengya said, her voice muffled as she brushed her teeth.

"You two woke up way too late. You’re such slobs!"

Provoked, Li Mengya threw her water cup at him. Jiang Yun dodged it. "Tsk tsk tsk, embarrassment turning into anger!"

"Say that again? Say it again, and see if I don't spit on you!" Li Mengya, seemingly grumpy from waking up, shot him a look and went back to brushing.

Jiang Yun rubbed his nose, not getting angry. Li Mengya really loved to roast herself; if she didn't, she wouldn't feel right.

Once they were ready, the three ate breakfast. After the meal, Jiang Yun brought the tall glass to Wang Fengwan. "Come on, take your medicine!"

"Hehehe!"

"Giggle!"

Li Mengya and Wang Fengwan both laughed. "Hand warmer!"

Jiang Yun’s face darkened as he walked over to Wang Fengwan. "Hurry up and take it!"

"Okay." Wang Fengwan took the glass and downed the medicine. When she drank the infusion, she almost gagged again. With a dark expression, Jiang Yun peeled her a piece of candy.

They had nothing to do that morning, so the three watched television for hours.

Ren Xing called. "Senior Jiang Yun, it’s time to head out!"

"Got it!" Jiang Yun hung up and said, "You two pack your things, I’ll go back to my room to pack as well. We’ll meet in the lobby later!"

"Okay!"

Jiang Yun went back, grabbed his suitcase, and headed to the lobby. When he arrived, Ren Xing and Zhu Yin were already waiting; Wei He and Zhou Yu had gone to participate in a different program.

A moment later, Li Mengya and Wang Fengwan arrived. The five of them used a ride-sharing app to head to the airport. After passing through security and getting their boarding passes, they waited for the flight.

"Let’s use this time to order our dishes!"

"Yay! I’ve been looking forward to this part!" Wang Fengwan had returned to her lively, energetic self.

"Ren Xing, you go first!"

"Alright!" Ren Xing dialed the number. "Hello, is this the Mushroom House?"

"It is. Who is this?"

"It’s Ren Xing!"

"Oh, it's Ren Xing. What dishes would you like to order?"

Jiang Yun frantically gestured at Ren Xing, who gave him an 'OK' sign.

"I’d like to order bear paw!"

The person on the other end was silent for a few minutes before roaring, "Put Jiang Yun on the phone!"

"Jiang Yun? Senior Jiang Yun isn't here with me!"
