Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 129

She wanted to move her body. Yet, she didn't realize that she had no energy at all. Then, she accidentally fell on the floor.

She extremely startled. She was afraid that the noise might wake Zed up.

When she tried to stand up, a pair of warm hands held her. The hands lifted her up and put her on the bed.

"Why didn't you wake me up when you were already up?" All of Zed's weariness were relieved after he saw Jean woke up. He was extremely delighted.

He tuned her bed higher and gently helped her lean on the bed.

Jean was a bit embarrassed and said, "I noticed that you looked so tired, so I didn't want to wake you up and bother you. I was not comfortable with my previous position, so I turned to change. But, I didn't realize that I had no strength at all." She didn't dare to look at his eyes. Her cheeks turned red as she eagerly explained to him.

"So you would rather choose to fall on the floor than wake me up?" Zed seemed to scold her, yet there's no hint of dispraise in his eyes. It seemed that he was really concerned about her so much.

Jean slowly bowed her head down. She felt that her face was a bit hot. Then she asked, "How long have I been sleeping here?"

"A day and a night." Zed calmly answered.

"I slept that long?" Jean asked. She was so shocked after she knew that she had slept for so long. She was supposed to shoot for the program. If she was lying there in the hospital, then how about the crew of the program? Where were they?

Zed seemed to grasp what she was thinking about. So he blandly said to her, "Don't worry about it. We will not shoot for the program anymore."

"We will not shoot?" She was dazzled for a while. Then she confusingly asked, "What? Why not?"

"Because you need to take good care of yourself. And you are not safe with some people in the program. I don't want you to get hurt anymore." His words indicated how concerned he was about her. He really considered all of those things for her safety.

Jean didn't know when they started to develop their relationship, and got along with each other as a real couple.

Though they were just acting at first, they seemed to forget about the acting already.

She was delighted to know that Zed considered all those things for her. If the shoot hadn't begun, she would definitely be delighted to be excluded from the show.

They only had two days left to shoot. If they quit now, not only their hard work, but also all the efforts exerted by the whole crew of the program, would be in vain.

Besides that, they accepted to be part of that program to save Qi Group's reputation. If they quit, then how would they save the loss of the Qi Group?

"No. We promised to be part of that program. We already started it, so we should finish it." Jean insisted.

Zed frowned and asked, "You always wanted to quit shooting, didn't you?"

"I don't care. We have already started it. Besides, there's only two days left for us to shoot. I don't want to waste the hard works and efforts exerted by the whole crew of the program just because of my own reasons." Jean said while she firmly looked at Zed.

"But you drowned because of them." His face turned cold. It seemed that he was getting angry that moment.

She knew who he was talking about. She pressed her lips together and said, "They are them, while the program is the program. There's clearly no relationship between them."

After he saw that she insisted about it, Zed didn't argue with her further. Instead, he warned her in a cold voice, "If you won't take good care of yourself and shoot for the program, I'll get all the crew of the program out of the entertainment circle!"

Then Zed immediately left the room.

Jean was slightly dazzled. She didn't think that Zed would do that just because of her.

The doctor came over and did an examination. After he checked Jean's condition, he said that she was already fine. But, she still needed extra nutrition and a rest for a week.

Jean was totally surprised when she heard that she needed to rest for a week! She had already stayed in the hospital for two days. Yet, she still needed to spend a week more there. The crew of the program had to adjust the shooting schedule for her. She was very influential and was really an important part of that program.

Without the doctor's approval, she couldn't get out of the hospital either. She didn't know what to do.

Zed stayed by her side every day in the hospital. Though he was just quiet and wore a cold face all the time, she still felt happy to be with someone she loved, especially in times when the hospital got so boring.

Jean was sure that Zed had specifically told the nurse to keep an eye on her and to never let her out of the ward.

As long as there's someone waiting at the door, she wouldn't be able to get out of there.

Damn Zed!

Jean finally gave up on her intentions. Since she was not able to get out, she just went to sleep instead.

She didn't know how long she had slept until the noise outside the door woke her up.

She was eventually wide awake. The noise became louder.

"How can you not let us go inside? We are here to visit the patient." A lousy voice was apparently interrogating the poor nurse.

"Right! We are celebrities. We should not be exposed. If anyone sees us here, are you going to be responsible for that?" Another voice added arrogantly.

Jean recognized that those voices were obviously from Madeline and her companions.

Jean was confused for a while. She didn't know why those women came there. Did they go there to see her ugly appearance?

"Let us in. Get off me. Get off ..."

The noise outside the ward was getting louder and louder. It seemed like they would forcefully rush in.

If things would get worse, it would attract people's attention. Those celebrities would surely be in the trending topics' list. Jean might even be involved in it.

Jean got up after contemplation. She then walked towards the door and opened it.
