Chapter 164 Yu Mei's refusal to pay celebrity taxes plunges her into the lowest point of her li

A month later, Yu Mei's family underwent a dramatic change. Da Sisi and Chen Lixin both suffered relapses of their old illnesses at the same time, and the father and daughter were admitted to the same central hospital in the seven cities within three days of each other.

My second aunt also came to the hospital to help take care of Da Sisi, whose pneumonia had relapsed.

Yu Mei hasn't accepted any scripts from directors these past few days. She's been taking care of her husband, Chen Lixin, whose back inflammation from the metal plate removal surgery has flared up again!

Yu Mei hurried along the hospital corridor, picking up medication and asking doctors about her condition. She was exhausted, but her eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

Auntie stayed with Da Sisi in the hospital room, gently comforting her granddaughter who was crying because of her illness. Meanwhile, Yu Mei stayed by Chen Lixin's bedside, looking at her unconscious husband with worry in her heart.

That day, the doctor informed Yu Mei that Chen Lixin's condition had worsened and that he might become paralyzed if a suitable treatment plan could not be found.

Upon hearing this, Yu Mei felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. But she quickly rallied and decided to seek out top orthopedic experts in the country.

Yu Mei inquired everywhere and finally contacted a renowned senior expert in Beijing. She personally went to Beijing to plead with the expert to come for a consultation. After Yu Mei's persistent persuasion, the expert agreed to come.

Yu Mei breathed a sigh of relief after the experts arrived at the Seventh Municipal Hospital and formulated an effective treatment plan.

However, experts say this will require a very large sum of money for treatment. The potential costs may be unaffordable for ordinary families.

However, the old expert laughed after speaking. The patient's wife was no ordinary person; she was a well-known celebrity. Of course, a celebrity has plenty of money and wouldn't care about the small amount of money spent on a patient's treatment.

However, what puzzled this well-meaning expert was that she was a famous star, so why didn't she hire someone to take care of her two hospitalized patients, instead insisting on taking care of her parents herself, in addition to the female lead's second aunt?

Yang Yumei answered the old expert's curious question with a smile. She said calmly, "I know I can afford to hire several or more nannies to take care of my family, but I think it's better to take care of them myself so that I can personally experience the feeling of having family."

"My biological mother passed away more than ten years ago. My family didn't even come to my hometown to find me or inform me. It was a long time before I learned of her death. I was devastated and felt incredibly guilty. I felt so sorry for my mother. That's why I have to personally take care of my family member who is hospitalized, no matter how much it costs, even if it means sacrificing my career! I just hope the senior specialists can do their best to cure my wife's illness."

The elderly expert almost wept as he listened, suddenly recalling how his own mother had passed away in the same way. He was studying abroad at the time, and his younger brother, who had a disagreement with him, hadn't informed him of their mother's death either. Later, when he returned to China, the two brothers fought fiercely over it and are now like enemies.

Yang Yumei hurriedly apologized, saying that she should have said those things, as they had stirred up the old expert's painful memories.

The old expert smiled and said, "Young lady, my past has nothing to do with you. However, my brother passed away a few years ago. Before he died, the misunderstanding between us was resolved. It wasn't my brother's fault, but rather my sister-in-law's doing something."

Then, Yu Mei smiled too.

Then, the old expert reassured Yu Mei that he would use all his medical skills to treat Chen Lixin. However, he requested that Yu Mei potentially come up with a large sum of money for the treatment.

Yang Yumei nodded.

Then, with everyone's careful care, Da Sisi's pneumonia gradually improved, and Chen Lixin's lumbar inflammation was also brought under control.

After this experience, the family cherishes their relationship even more.

However, three months later, she failed to pay her taxes and was sanctioned for suspected tax evasion!

After Yu Mei was sanctioned, her family was thrown into chaos. Some of the money originally intended to pay for Chen Lixin's subsequent medical treatment was frozen. Extensive media coverage and public pressure weighed heavily on Yu Mei.

Yu Mei spent her days in tears, regretting the terrible mistake she had made due to her momentary carelessness. Her second aunt comforted Yu Mei while helping to take care of the household.

Although Chen Lixin was still recovering from his illness, he tried his best to comfort Yu Mei, saying that even if her condition relapsed, he did not want to see her so depressed.

Yu Mei decided to face the situation positively. She publicly apologized and promised to pay the outstanding taxes. To raise the money, she sold some non-essential assets.

At the same time, she also contacted friends she had worked with before, seeking some legal and compliant ways to make money, even if they were just small roles.

During this difficult time, her family's support became her greatest motivation. Da Sisi said to Yu Mei understandingly, "Mom, don't be afraid, we'll get through this together."

In the end, Yu Mei paid off her taxes little by little through her own efforts, rebuilt her image, and her family became stronger and more united in the process, and their lives gradually returned to normal.

Yang Yumei has returned to her acting career, and she has worked even harder since then. Her agent has given her a TV series with the theme of a female superheroine that is about to premiere!

Then, on set, she had a lot of scenes that required the female lead to film, including wire work at high altitudes, and needed a stunt double for those high-altitude flying shots.

However, she shook her head and refused. She wanted to use her body to film every part of the movie so that she could earn more money and give her family a happy life!

The medical treatment and medical expenses for his family members, as well as the back taxes he paid for his acting career, have drained his earnings from the past few years of filming.

Previously, when she returned to her hometown in the countryside, she invested in and renovated the village to help the villagers achieve a better life, including setting up vegetable greenhouses and raising pigs, cattle, and sheep. This cost her a large portion of her money.

Furthermore, her current long-time fans have unfollowed her because of her previous tax evasion issues, so she has to rebuild her image in the acting world!

Yu Mei worked diligently on set, striving for perfection in every movement. As filming progressed, her dedication gradually impressed the crew, even generating stories of admiration on set. A young reporter, hearing of this, came specifically to interview her.

Yu Mei generously shared her personal journey, sincerely expressing her regret for past mistakes and her deep love for her family. After the interview was published, many viewers began to change their opinions of her, and her popularity gradually rebounded.

After the new drama aired, the ratings were quite high. Yu Mei won the audience's recognition with her excellent acting skills, and her salary also rose accordingly. With this money, she first settled things at home, ensured that Chen Lixin's follow-up treatment would be without any problems, and also set aside an education fund for Da Sisi.

Afterwards, she founded a non-profit organization dedicated to educating celebrities about tax matters and preventing them from making the same mistakes she did. Yu Mei is well aware that she made a wrong step in the past and now wants to make amends through more positive actions.

After experiencing numerous hardships, Yu Mei not only regained her footing in her acting career, but also gained a happy family and social respect. Her story has become an inspirational example in the entertainment industry.

However, these positive revelations turned out to be a daydream that Yang Yumei had in the dressing room on set. When she woke up, she was back to filming a TV series where she was suspended by wires in a white ancient costume as a "female flying hero"!

Moments later, she had an accident while suspended by wires!
