Chapter 47 - Tears (“Do you know some sort of magic?”) (1)
Chang XiaoYa, standing on the coffee table that was neither too tall nor too short, starting falling straight at Shen Yi. A few of the actresses had already covered up their eyes for fear of what might happen.
That included Xu WanZhi.
She understood the meaning behind trust fall. The game was supposed to play by an entire team together. If one person fell, ten or so others would catch. But, right now, Shen Yi was the only one behind Chang XiaoYa. If anything went wrong, the only ones that they could count on were the two men that came with Mu ZhenYu.
Question was… would they help out?
After spending some time with Mu ZhenYu, she knew that he might be a vicious person, but he usually knew how far he would go. He wouldn’t really allow this belayed gathering celebrating the start of their show turn into a bloody event.
Yet, there was still a small voice calling out in her head, but he was a villain! The one who had annihilated her in the original novel!
She didn’t know which side of his she should rely on. Which was also why she felt her chest tightened right at this moment.
With a loud ‘BANG!’, Chang XiaoYa finally fell and landed squarely into Shen Yi’s arms.
Because of the force from the fall, Shen Yi wasn’t able to catch her solidly. The two of them fell backward a few steps and finally fell on their backs.
Everybody rushed up to see if they were hurt. Luckily, Shen Yi helped Chang XiaoYa up in a little bit. The two of them dusted themselves and both of them were unhurt.
Everybody from the cast cheered – the scene just now, as dangerous as it was, was also very exciting. And now that those that were involved were safe, everybody could feel that adrenalin rush and that caused everyone to be in an elated mood.
Such as the cold truth about the entertainment circle.
Xu WanZhi let out a long sigh and looked back over at Mu ZhenYu.
Earlier, in the very brief second, she saw that the two men standing behind Mu ZhenYu were in an alert state the entire time. Meaning that, the two very strong fellas would never had let harms came Shen Yi or Chang XiaoYa’s way.
He had only wanted to teach them a lesson and nothing else.
She walked docilely around everybody that were still cheering to where Mu ZhenYu was and said to the director, “I am going to head out. You all have fun.”
Everybody knew what that meant. When Xu WanZhi left, Mu ZhenYu would leave with her. The director was only too happy about that. He nodded earnestly and said, “Okay, okay. Drive safely and get some rest when you get home. We will see you at filming tomorrow!”
Xu WanZhi nodded and walked closely behind Mu ZhenYu as they walked out of the door.
The two sturdy men walked them down to the underground garage and took off from there. Mu ZhenYu started the car quietly and took her home with him.
The spacious car flew down the street as though it could slice open the night.
Xu WanZhi cracked open the window a bit and could feel the summer wind blowing into the car. The night was stuffy and there was a hint of redness in the clouds. There was also an almost undetectable humidity in the air.
There would probably be a thunderstorm not too long after.
The thought of the impending thundering sound made Xu WanZhi felt uneasy. She initiated conversation with Mu ZhenYu in the otherwise quiet car. “Mr. Mu, how did you end up there?”
His voice was like a stick of dynamite, “What? Did I interrupt something?”
Hearing that, Xu WanZhi immediately pouted and turned to face him, pulling out a long stretch of her seat belt. “What do you mean by that? You know that Chang XiaoYa set me up on purpose and you even got her back for me… so why would you say something like this now?”
“She set you up, yes, but you didn’t have to fall for it.” He looked at her out of the corners of his eyes. “You are a smart girl. You know what she was trying to do. You were able to subdue Zhou LiQian with just one hand before. So how come you didn’t stand up to Chang XiaoYa? Or, you were hoping that something would happen between you and that Shen guy.”
“That was not true!” Feeling wronged, Xu WanZhi’s brows furrowed into the shape of an eight (八). “I have my ways. I won’t let him come into contact with me!”
The car has already arrived at the bottom of their apartment building. He put on the blinker. His eagle-sharp eyes glanced into the rear-view mirror and he quickly turned the steering wheel and drove into the underground garage. “Even if he didn’t come into contact with you, there will still be punishment if the tissue was dropped. What if his request was even worse?”
