Meng Fu closed it.
Little did she know, after closing it, there was another line in the chat room.

At the same time, in the hospital.
Jiang Quan found the deputy director. Yu Yong was right behind Jiang Quan.
“The Old Master Jiang’s incense sachet?” Hearing Jiang Quan’s question, the deputy director looked serious. “In fact, I had the same question. Where did you get that? This thing should be out of stock in that place…”
Jiang Quan glanced at the deputy director and smiled calmly. “It was a gift from my daughter to the Old Master.”
“The Ms. Meng that Xiao Li talked about?” The deputy director was interested in the lady that Jiang Quan mentioned.
“Yes. How is this thing useful to my father?” Jiang Quan nodded.
The deputy director smiled gently. “With this around, the Old Master will not have to worry about another relapse for a while. This is an extremely rare commodity.”
As for what it was, the deputy director did not elaborate. Yu Yong slightly narrowed his eyes. He did not know most of the professional terms that the deputy director used. However, according to what the deputy director described, several experts and professors had turned up to look at Meng Fu’s gift. He knew that what Meng Fu gave to the Old Master was not something ordinary.
However…
Why would Meng Fu have this thing?
Yu Yong fell into deep thought.
Jiang Quan gave Meng Fu a call. The phone rang several times before she picked up.
“Fu’er, your grandfather has come out of the surgery room safely.” Jiang Quan coughed. When Meng Fu left he had also felt some anger toward her. “I am sorry. I didn’t hand your gift to him. Why didn’t you say it was so important from the beginning?”
Meng Fu smiled lazily. “Would you have believed it?”
Jiang Quan was speechless. Not only would he not have believed it, he probably would have thought that she was crazy.
“If there’s nothing, I will hang up.” He could hear her clicking a mouse over the phone.
“Your mother threw your talisman away…”
Meng Fu clicked on a new folder. “10 times my contract.”
Jiang Quan smiled at her words. “No problem. Also, a fan of yours in the hospital just brought you a gift. I will have someone give it to you tomorrow.”
Jiang Quan was aware of the contract that Meng Fu had signed with Tianle Media in the past. It was the cheapest and the most basic contract. The Old Master had to make use of his connections to secure it. Ten times that was less than one million yuan. Jiang Quan found it acceptable.
He already had the impression that the most valuable item Meng Fu had was the incense sachet. Therefore, he agreed to pay her the money to make her happy.
Jiang Quan was back with Yu Yong. The atmosphere at the lift landing was different now. Yu Zhenling, who had been angry just now, did not speak a word. She pursed her lips, looking a little embarrassed. As for Jiang Xinchen, there was a frown on his face. Jiang Quan did not know what was on his mind.
“Go back and apologize to Fu’er. Look at all of you. You are her mother and you are her younger brother. Look at what all of you said to her,” Jiang Quan said.
Yu Zhenling still pursed her lips, feeling confused. “It’s fine that she wanted to give the Old Master an incense sachet. But why did she put a talisman that she drew inside? Brother, how can I be happy for her if she learns these strange things instead of picking up useful skills?”
Yu Yong glanced at Jiang Quan, and then at Yu Zhenling. He reached out to press the elevator button and changed the subject. “I met Mr. Tong yesterday. How’s the discussion about Tong Eryu?”
He brushed the matter about Meng Fu aside. Many families were concerned about Meng Fu’s marriage with the Tong family.
Now that they were discussing a serious matter, Jiang Quan glanced at Jiang Xinchen and Jiang Xinran. “You two go downstairs first.”
“Sister, let’s go.” Jiang Xinchen pulled Jiang Xinran’s arm and left.
Jiang Xinran reluctantly smiled. She followed Jiang Xinchen to the elevator.
After the two left, Jiang Quan muttered, “Let’s have Fu’er and the Tong family sit down together and solve the problem face to face later. In two weeks time, her variety show will end.”

The next episode of the live-stream broadcast of Best Idol was just a few days away.
Sheng Entertainment created a separate page for Best Idol, counting down to the day the show would be broadcast. There were two days left on the counter. It showed that Sheng Entertainment valued the Best Idol program crew a lot.
Because it was a large-scale live-stream on the entire network, any slight mistake could destroy the artist’s career.
After being reminded by the assistant, Manager Sheng studied Meng Fu’s portfolio thoroughly as well as the lip-syncing incident and the criticism on the internet. All of the criticism was deleted overnight, however Manager Sheng made use of his connections to retrieve the original video from some of the marketing accounts.
After listening to Meng Fu’s lip-syncing, Manager Sheng pressed his temple and fell into deep thought.
“Should I not have agreed to creating a live-stream page?” Manager Sheng put down the coffee in his hand. “There is so much hype around it and she can’t sing well. There is no way to change the audience’s perception of her.”
He thought for a long time, then looked up at the assistant. “Make a trip to the Best…”
Sheng Entertainment had always been arrogant. If they wanted to groom someone, they would use any means and ways to do it. Not to mention that it was Su Cheng who had recommended this person.
Major management personnel were discussing the marketing details of the live-stream of Best Idol. The four mentors were also discussing the live-streaming process. Xi Nancheng and Wen Yu would host the show.
Director Mu came in when they were talking to each other. There was a strange expression on his face.
Wen Yu put down the script and asked gently, “Director Mu, do you have any new directions?”
“Well…” Director Mu raised his head and asked the other staff members to leave. He glanced at the four mentors, his eyes resting on Xi Nancheng. “Meng Fu will record her audio track beforehand for tomorrow night’s live broadcast. I hope the four mentors will cooperate during the live-show. This is also in one of the confidentiality agreements.”
Record her audio track in advance? To put it bluntly, lip-syncing.
Xi Nancheng laughed in anger, throwing his script away, looking at Wen Yu. “Is this what you meant when you said that Meng Fu has made huge progress?”
