Chapter 177
Lu Jinnian stood in front of the window in the hospital’s hallway . He stared out at the pitch-black night sky for a while, thinking back to the cut on Qiao Anhao’s forehead . It wasn’t serious, but the cut was on her face . He pulled out his phone and called his assistant .
As the assistant was already in the city, he rushed over to the hospital with a small bottle of medicine in just half an hour after picking up Lu Jinnian’s call . He handed him the bottle .
“Mr . Lu, this medicine is almost finished . All that’s left is this one bottle . If you give this to Miss Qiao, you won’t have any left for yourself . “
Lu Jinnian got the medicine a few years back when he was filming in Yunnan and stumbled upon an old traditional Chinese doctor . He bought this scar removal ointment that was passed on by his ancestors . At the time, he often visited the doctor, as it was difficult to avoid getting hit whilst filming fight scenes in his historical drama . No matter how serious the injury was, as long as he rubbed the ointment, it would never leave a scar .
Hearing his assistant’s words, Lu Jinnian’s expression didn’t change . He just took the ointment, shoved it in his pocket, and said in a dull voice, “If we get a chance to go to Yunnan, go back and buy more from that old traditional Chinese doctor . “
The assistant moved his lips but no words came out . In the bottom of his heart, he silently thought about the old traditional Chinese doctor who he’d met on a one-off chance . So many years had passed since they then, who would he find there when he went back to buy the medicine?

When Qiao Anhao finished her check-up, it was already nine at night, and her results showed that there were no major problems . The doctor cleaned the cut on her forehead with some alcohol to kill all the bacteria . When she fell, she probably brushed her head against something and scraped a little piece of skin off .

Even though the doctor said it was nothing, Lu Jinnian still made Qiao Anhao do all the different types of checks . When they confirmed that there was really nothing wrong, he returned the reports back to her . He then turned to leave the hospital . Qiao Anhao gathered all her test results and shoved them into her bag, hurriedly following behind him .
–
Lu Jinnian didn’t take Qiao Anhao back to the crew but to Mian Xiu Garden . He drove straight to the villa’s gates before stopping the car .
Madam Chen apparently had heard some movement . Before the car even pulled up, she had already walked out from the house .
Qiao Anhao unfastened her safety belt . She got out of the car and greeted Madam Chen . Lu Jinnian rolled down the driver side’s window and pulled out a bottle of ointment to hand it over to Qiao Anhao . He took a glance at the cut on her forehead, and said in flat voice, “To prevent scarring . “
Qiao Anhao didn’t put her hand out to take it, casually saying, “The doctor said it won’t leave a scar . . . “
She even refused a bottle of ointment from him? Lu Jinnian’s expression hardened, and he interrupted Qiao Anhao again, “If it leaves a scar, who will be responsible? Miss Qiao, don’t you forget that you are an actress, you rely on your face for your work . The audience would find a scarred face an eyesore . Please, have some professionalism!”
