False Sincerity

Fang Meimei's face immediately darkened—her speed of changing expression was truly lightning-fast!

"I know!" Her voice couldn't hide her anger. "Which ward is Ma Songbo in?"

The staff member instinctively stepped back a bit and replied, "He... he's in ward 605."

"I'm going to find him." Fang Meimei threw off the blanket and stepped out of bed.

The staff member originally wanted to stop her, but thinking of the director's instructions, they ended up following her.

She walked to the ward door, raised her hand to knock, and deliberately lowered her voice to sound weak and pitiful: "Big Brother Songbo, it's Meimei. Can I come in?"

The staff member following behind: "..."

Inside the ward, Ma Songbo naturally heard the voice at the door. His expression was very conflicted. Finally, he spoke up: "Come in."

As soon as she heard that, Fang Meimei pushed the door open and entered. Seeing the staff member trying to follow, she warned: "We have some private matters to discuss. Without my permission, you are not allowed in."

With that, she closed the door.

The moment she saw Ma Songbo, her eyes filled with tears, looking incredibly frail and pitiful.

"Big Brother Songbo, I specifically came to apologize to you. It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have ended up like this..."

At this point, tears rolled down her cheeks. She bit her lip and whispered, "It's all my fault. I really didn't mean it. I was also deceived by someone. I'm truly sorry."

Ma Songbo was a bit flustered. He hadn't expected Fang Meimei to be so emotional. "Mei... Teacher Fang, please calm down first."

Hearing his way of addressing her, Fang Meimei's hand at her side tightened, and her eyelashes trembled. "Big Brother Songbo, I know you must have a misunderstanding about me right now, but what I'm saying is the truth. I am also a victim."

Hearing her say this, a look of struggle appeared on Ma Songbo's face. Eventually, he relented. "You really didn't know?"

Fang Meimei nodded vigorously, putting on a pitiful face. "You know how fierce the competition is in the entertainment industry, especially regarding weight management... I usually don't dare to eat high-calorie or greasy food, but today I had no choice. That's why I thought about secretly taking some weight loss pills. I didn't expect the purchasing agent to lie to me..."

Ma Songbo still wasn't entirely convinced and continued to ask, "Then why did you give it to me?" This was the part Ma Songbo understood the least.

Fang Meimei lowered her eyes, looking even more aggrieved. "At the time, I just wanted to show concern for you. I didn't expect you to drink it, and I was so focused on losing weight that I didn't pay much attention."

"Then afterward..."

She hurriedly cut in: "At that time, I was both scared and panicked, and worried that something would happen to you, so I didn't dare admit it. The more I thought about it later, the more I regretted it. It's all because I was too cowardly. If I had been braver and stood up to admit my mistake, the things that followed wouldn't have happened."

Ma Songbo wavered.

Seeing this, Fang Meimei added: "Big Brother Songbo, you treat me so well. How could I possibly give you that kind of drug? If you still don't believe me, you can ask my manager. She knows best what kind of person I am."

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just..." Ma Songbo still found it a bit hard to accept.

Seeing his expression, a flash of disgust crossed Fang Meimei's eyes, but she still said pitifully, "Big Brother Songbo, did you receive the message I sent you?"

At the mention of the Heartbeat SMS, Ma Songbo immediately became a bit awkward and scratched his head. "I... I received it."

"It's good that you received it." Fang Meimei smiled at him and pursed her lips. "I thought you hadn't, and it scared me to death."

Ma Songbo didn't know how to respond and sat there as if on pins and needles.

"Then I'll head back first. Get some good rest." Fang Meimei wiped her tears.

Ma Songbo nodded quickly. "Okay."

Watching Fang Meimei leave, his mood became even more complicated. Although she spoke very sincerely, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart, always having the feeling she was lying to him...

Asking himself, was she really innocent? Ma Songbo wasn't a fool. Even though Fang Meimei spoke sincerely, he understood that most of what she said was false. Thinking back on her subsequent actions, it wasn't hard to see she did it intentionally.

As for Fang Meimei, after leaving room 605, she immediately returned to her own ward. As soon as she entered, she instructed the staff: "Get ready. We're filming a clarification video."

The staff member looked at her but said nothing.

Fang Meimei picked up the phone on the table and accessed the livestream room. She expected to see many people attacking Ye Yihe, but instead, the livestream was incredibly harmonious.

[Tell me, He Bao received a total of three Heartbeat SMS. Who exactly sent them?]

What?! That bitch Ye Yihe actually received three Heartbeat SMS! Fang Meimei's expression instantly became distorted.

[I can't say for the others, but I can guarantee the first one was definitely sent by the Lu family head!]

[Nonsense! Does that even need to be said? Besides the Lu family head, who else would dare call He Bao "Little He'er"! Tsk, another trick from the little couple!]

[Waaaah! I'm a solo fan! But... I want to ship this so bad, what should I do!!! What a sin!]

[Ship it, ship it! Have you ever heard the Lu family head call anyone so intimately? First Little He'er, then Eldest Miss, soon it'll change to Little Baby!]

[What Little Baby! That's 'Wife'! Hurry up and get the marriage certificate!]

[But don't you guys think Ye Yihe really looks like the eldest miss of a tycoon family? Has anyone investigated? I'm really curious!]

[Being able to attend the same junior high as the Lu family head means she's definitely not simple! But is Ye Yihe usually too low-key? I don't think I've ever seen her flaunt wealth, unlike Fang Meimei who posts limited edition bags every few days...]

[True, true, true! Ye Yihe's temperament is the best. The two of them are completely incomparable!]

Fang Meimei got angrier as she watched, gritting her teeth. "What do these people know! No aesthetic sense at all, truly trash! A bunch of useless losers!"

Thinking about how many fans she had lost while Ye Yihe gained millions more, her heart became even more unbalanced! It's all her fault! She did it on purpose!

"Ye, Yi, He! I am irreconcilable with you! Just you wait!" Fang Meimei hissed.
