My younger brothers are so fierce!!! I'm clearly the eldest brother!

Time flies like sand through our fingers, and before we know it, it's already mid-March.

"Baby, it's getting windy, let's go back."

Gong Bolin walked behind Jiang Guanqing and placed his fingers on the back of the wheelchair.

Jiang Guanqing wore a smoky gray cashmere cardigan over a beige turtleneck sweater, the collar slightly rolled up to reveal a slender collarbone, and a thin blanket covered her legs.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the magnolia trees, casting dappled shadows on Jiang Guanqing's face. In the past month or two, Jiang Guanqing's hair had grown considerably, and strands fluttered slightly in the wind, falling across her forehead.

"These flowers are blooming so beautifully."

This is the peak blooming season for magnolias in northern Beijing, with trees laden with snow-white blossoms, resembling the last snowflakes of winter. When the wind blows, the petals tremble softly, so densely packed against the azure sky that they are dazzling to the eye.

Jiang Guanqing was reluctant to leave.

Gong Bolin's gaze was not on the flowers. He looked down at Jiang Guanqing's slightly trembling eyelashes, and then his gaze fell on Jiang Guanqing's slightly pursed lips, the color of which was as pale as a magnolia that was about to wither.

"It's opening perfectly, but the wind is too strong, and you can't stand the cold." Gong Bolin didn't want Jiang Guanqing to look at his favorite things a little longer, but he was worried that Jiang Guanqing's body couldn't handle it.

During his time in the hospital, they took turns feeding him, and finally Jiang Guanqing gained some weight. If he got sick again because of being exposed to the wind for too long, he would lose all the weight he had just gained. Gong Bolin would be so angry that he would wake up in the middle of the night and bury himself in the ground.

"Alright." Jiang Guanqing looked at Yulan with reluctance.

A gentle breeze suddenly swept by, causing the magnolia trees to sway softly. A branch in full bloom was broken off by the wind, and along with a few scattered petals, it fell right into Jiang Guanqing's arms.

Jiang Guanqing paused slightly, looking down at the magnolia on his lap. Incredulously, he reached out and touched the flower. "This..."

Gong Bolin was also stunned. The gust of wind was not strong, but it blew down this flower that was in full bloom. Although it swayed, it fell right into Jiang Guanqing's arms.

"It seems this tree is reluctant to let you go and wants you to stay a little longer."

Jiang Guanqing held the magnolia flower in her hands, her eyes sparkling.

Gong Bolin couldn't help but laugh. "It's time to go back."

Jiang Guanqing gathered the flowers in her palm and softly hummed in agreement.

For the past month or so, the hospital ward has become like another home. Jiang Yan and the others would come to the hospital as soon as they got off work and would only leave when Jiang Guanqing needed to rest.

With Jiang Guanqing's persistence, two more days passed and he was finally discharged from the hospital.

Jiang Guanqing has been living a very leisurely life lately, without having to do anything. Every day, he has to deal with being fed by Jiang Yan and the others, and also act as a "family judge" to handle the bickering between his younger brothers, Jiang Zhuo, Jiang Huai, Jiang Ting, and Jiang Ning.

With the secret encouragement of Jiang Yan, Bai Xin, and Gong Bolin, Nan Yun'er's reputation in the entertainment industry has recently become extremely bad.

First, a video of her acting like a diva and making things difficult for staff during filming was "accidentally" leaked. Then, anonymous sources revealed that she had repeatedly stolen resources from female artists in the same company, even resorting to despicable means.

Directors and producers who once praised her as "brilliant" have all changed their tune. Most devastatingly, Nam Yoon-ah's biological parents went live on social media.

In the video, a wrinkled man, with snot and tears streaming down his face, complains, "She became famous and then she didn't recognize us anymore. We raised her all these years, was it easy for us? And now that she's in the city and a star, she looks down on us for being poor and unsophisticated."

Sitting next to the man was Nam Yoon-ah's mother, who was crying her heart out, slapping her thighs and weeping uncontrollably. "She has no conscience! We feed her and clothe her, and when her father broke his leg at the construction site, she didn't even come back to visit him. She earned so much money, but she didn't send a single penny home. Now, we old folks can't even afford medicine..."

The live stream was filled with insults.

Shortly after Nam Yoon-ah became famous after her debut, she mentioned in a program that her family background was not good and that her parents were exploitative, which earned her a lot of sympathy.

Now the tide has turned, and netizens who once sympathized with her feel they have been fooled, and anger is surging like a tidal wave.

Magnificent Land: So it was all a publicity stunt. Using their own parents as stepping stones, how disgusting.

Ghost: Look at how pitiful she looked before, she used all her acting skills here, didn't she?

My cat can do an incredible 360-degree backflip: Her parents are really unlucky to have raised such an ingrate. I heard she's even going to sue them for defamation? Tsk tsk, she's utterly heartless.

.........

On the night that Nam Yoon-ah's parents appeared on a live stream, her agency issued a statement overnight, saying that "the artist's private matters are unrelated to the company."

Nam Yoon-ah has long been abandoned by the company. Her social media accounts are filled with insults in the comments section. She has terminated her endorsements one after another, and the breach of contract fees are snowballing. Her former fans have turned against her and exposed more of her unknown scandals. As for whether these scandals are true or false, no one can tell anymore.

In order to pay the penalty for breach of contract, Nam Yoon-ah had no choice but to sell her property and move to a small one-bedroom apartment.

The apartment is actually quite nice, about 40 square meters, with south-facing windows and light gray wallpaper. The bathroom is a bit small, but the water heater is new.

Nam Yoon-ah stood at the door, still holding the handle of her suitcase, her gaze sweeping across the room with disdain.

"That's it?" Nam Yoon-ah asked in her mind with disdain, but then realized that the system was no longer responding to her. Since the last time on set, the system seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again.

Realizing this, Nam Yoon-ah felt a surge of anger and muttered a curse under her breath.

The room is too small, the wall color is too plain, the floor pattern looks fake, and the bathroom mirror is too small...

Nam Yoon-ah had long been accustomed to living in her old flat with its floor-to-ceiling windows, accustomed to standing high up overlooking the city lights. There was nothing in this small apartment that could please Nam Yoon-ah.

"Aaaaaah!" Nam Yoon-ah screamed and backed away as she saw a cockroach crawling across the kitchen.

Is Nam Yoon-ah really scared? Maybe not. After all, there wasn't just one cockroach in her old house; she'd killed so many that she couldn't count them on both hands.

Nam Yoon-ah stood in the living room, took out her phone, and as soon as she opened it, hundreds of messages flooded in—some demanding payment, others cursing her.

Nam Yoon-ah's fingers mechanically slid across the screen as the curses and threats surged in like a tide. Resentment filled her eyes until a notification popped up abruptly, like a thorn piercing her eye.

#Jiang Zhuo confirmed to join "You and My Slow Country Life", her first time as a regular cast member#

"You and Me: A Slow-Paced Country Life," a variety show that Nam Yoon-ah knows about, is a slow-paced lifestyle program that uses a live broadcast format. Guests bring a friend or family member to participate and spend one or two months in the countryside, growing vegetables, cooking, chatting, and daydreaming.

Upon seeing the words "First Time Permanent Residence," Nam Yoon-ah suddenly chuckled.

Since she's already finished, why should Jiang Guanqing and the others still be doing well? Jiang Zhuo, we've had our share of scandals!
