Xu Yuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I really like Guoguo quite a bit. I treat her like my own daughter."
Ling Zhenfei paused for a moment, then quickly said, "No need to treat her like your daughter. Anyway, I'm leaving Guoguo to you. If anything happens, I'll definitely come to find you."
"Rest assured, we've agreed that Guoguo's matter and today's issue with Han Ge are separate. Tonight, I still want to treat you to a good drink."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Alright, I don't have many hobbies, but I do like making friends."
Although there's a twenty-year age gap between them, once they started chatting, they really hit it off and became more and more cheerful.
At this time, people who had gone inside to visit Han Ge had started coming out one after another, with Han Ge's parents also coming out to express their gratitude to Ling Zhenfei.
Of course, many reporters wanted to interview Ling Zhenfei, but he declined them all, hoping that the media could report objectively and fairly without tarnishing his image anymore.
Outside hospital gates, Han Ge's fans had already received the news and were cheering joyously, with some even setting off fireworks.
Online, joy-filled words were everywhere, with Han Ge's fans collectively thanking Ling Zhenfei, causing Ling Zhenfei's fan count to skyrocket by ten million, reaching a terrifying number of over sixty million.
Now, Ling Zhenfei's popularity has reached an unprecedented height, and the voices questioning Ling Zhenfei online have seemingly disappeared because Han Ge was right there.
Previously, no matter who Ling Zhenfei treated, those skeptical individuals always had reasons to criticize him by claiming that the treated individuals were nowhere to be found, suspecting that Ling Zhenfei hired actors. But now, Han Ge stood there, beyond their questioning.
Could Han Ge be a hired stooge by Ling Zhenfei? The person who could hire Han Ge hasn't been born yet.
Han Ge is currently the hottest star in the domestic entertainment industry—an actor with the best acting skills among young talents, the most handsome among those with good acting skills, and the most attentive idol to fans, even said to be without any negative reviews.
It's fair to say that Ling Zhenfei's aid to Han Ge is a win-win, marking a turning point in Ling Zhenfei's life.
In the evening, when the lights lit up the film city, Xu Yuan and Han Ge's family had booked the largest restaurant for the occasion.
They intended to host a banquet there to thank Ling Zhenfei for treating Han Ge, and had also invited other actors and directors who were currently filming in the film city.
This was a grand party, with Chu Bingqing attending as an important guest invited by Xu Yuan. The connection between Xu Yuan and Ling Zhenfei had a lot to do with Chu Bingqing.
Throughout the banquet, numerous actors and directors approached Ling Zhenfei requesting photos and his phone number.
Actors are people too, despite the aura surrounding them being more pronounced than ordinary folks; they experience birth, aging, sickness, and death, oftentimes more seriously than anyone else.
Just like Han Ge, a major star who also experienced unfortunate setbacks, hence, actors greatly value Ling Zhenfei, aware that they might need his treatment at any moment.
"I heard Director Xu say that he's intending to keep Guoguo here?" As fewer people surrounded Ling Zhenfei, Chu Bingqing came over to him.
There's no denying that Chu Bingqing becomes a focal point wherever she goes. Today, she was wearing a stunning white evening dress, making her entry exceptionally captivating.
Ling Zhenfei was a bit dumbfounded facing Chu Bingqing; it's always the same when in front of a beauty.
If a ranking list were to be created for women around Ling Zhenfei, Lu Huanong would be the most ethereal because she seemed otherworldly.
However, the most charismatic and radiant would be Chu Bingqing, not surprisingly since she's well-known internationally, possessing a strong aura of stardom that greatly boosts her confidence.
Of course, Chu Bingqing's confidence is well-founded; she has an excellent physique and appearance, complemented by her current exalted demeanor, which can only be described as perfect.
"Indeed, you can definitely see that Guoguo's abilities are quite good."
Chu Bingqing laughed and asked, "And what about you? Where are you planning to go?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment before replying, "I think I should go to the Capital City tomorrow."
"Going to the Capital City to see Li Yuetong?" Chu Bingqing's tone carried a hint of jealousy.
"I have other matters in the Capital City," Ling Zhenfei replied.
Chu Bingqing laughed, "Come on, I already know you too well, and I've always sensed there's something unusual between you and Li Yuetong."
Chu Bingqing leaned closer to Ling Zhenfei's ear and said, "What's your relationship with Li Yuetong? You aren't... together, are you?"
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, "Don't talk nonsense; Li Yuetong is a big star. How could someone like me match up to her? My relationship with her is just like the one between you and me—friends."
Chu Bingqing slightly smiled, perhaps somewhat disbelieving, and said, "Aren't you a big star yourself? In my view, it's the other celebrities that might not be worthy of you. Don't underestimate yourself."
Even though Ling Zhenfei didn't want to admit it, he indeed was enjoying the treatment of a star with numerous online fans, and denying his celebrity status seemed rather pretentious.
While the two were chatting, Xu Yuan approached with a wine glass, visibly having drunk a bit too much.
He raised the glass before them, laughing, "You two standing together look like a perfect couple, truly well-matched."
"Director Xu, you've had too much to drink." Chu Bingqing's face unexpectedly showed a slight blush.
"I haven't drunk too much; I'm just happy today! Thanks to Ling Zhenfei, I'm thrilled! Come on, brother, let's have a drink together." Xu Yuan clinked glasses with Ling Zhenfei.
Xu Yuan was genuine, downing several drinks with Ling Zhenfei in a row.
At this time, Han Ge's parents and sister approached together.
"Divine Doctor Ling, let us offer you a toast."
Ling Zhenfei couldn't refuse and drank, when Han Ge's mother said, "Divine Doctor Ling, we have a request."
Ling Zhenfei paused, slightly puzzled, and said, "What is it? Just tell me."
"The thing is, we heard you're leaving tomorrow. But we are a bit uneasy since Han Ge just underwent treatment today; we understand you are busy.
But could you let Miss He stay for a couple more days? She's your disciple and should have learned your techniques. We hope she can remain here for a few days to take care of Han Ge, until he is slightly better, then she can leave."
Ling Zhenfei paused a bit, surprised by their request. Although He Lingxiu is his disciple, they are unaware of their other relationship, he also wished for He Linxiu to stay by his side.
Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll let Ling Xiu stay a few more days."
Upon hearing this, the Han family was very pleased.
