Su Li was concerned about the impact on Xie Yun’s performance. He quickly found an excuse to send Lu Zhao away.
...Luo Ying glanced at Lu Zhao’s resentful gaze and couldn’t help but inwardly laugh. This man was always adorable when he got jealous.
The crew ensured that the shooting went on as smoothly as possible. They did not want to trouble Luo Ying. They proceeded with the scenes in an orderly manner. By three in the afternoon, only a single final outdoor scene remained.
While dressed in ancient costumes, Luo Ying and Xie Yun walked along the street. Extras moved about them.
Suddenly, a woman took out a bottle from her basket and threw its contents at Luo Ying’s face. Xie Yun acted swiftly and shielded Luo Ying in his arms.
Liu Sheng was shocked. The sulfuric acid in her hand failed to reach its target. Some of it landed on Xie Yun’s back, and the rest splattered onto the ground.
The people around them didn’t react immediately. They had thought it was part of the script.
When they saw the sulfuric acid emitting thick smoke on the ground and witnessed Xie Yun kneeling in pain, they realized something had gone wrong.
Everyone rushed forward to check the situation. Luo Ying quickly sprang into action. Xie Yun’s skin was already starting to sizzle.
“Water! Bring water!” Luo Ying shouted.
The people nearby quickly brought several buckets of water. Removing layer after layer of Xie Yun’s complex ancient costume was a slow process.
Xie Yun’s face was contorted in pain, and sweat streamed down his forehead.
Lu Zhao had been led to the tea room by Su Li. He heard the commotion outside and quickly ran out.
As soon as he saw the scene, he knew what had happened. He hurried to Xie Yun’s side and tore open his shirt to wash away the acid with water. Xie Yun’s skin had already been burned. His face paled as he endured the pain.
Lu Zhao furrowed his brow but remained composed when he spoke. “Where are the on-set doctors?” he asked someone nearby.
“Director Su has gone to fetch them,” a crew member replied.
Not far away, Su Li rushed over with two people wearing white lab coats.
The doctors began to treat Xie Yun’s wounds. Lu Zhao looked at Luo Ying with concern and asked, “Are you okay?”
Luo Ying furrowed her brow and shook her head. “I’m fine. That person was aiming at me. Xie Yun saved me. ”
Lu Zhao looked at Xie Yun, who was convulsing in pain, and guilt welled up in his heart. He turned to Su Li and instructed him, “After providing initial treatment, take Xie Yun to the best hospital and ask for the best treatment. I’ll cover all the medical expenses.”
Su Li nodded solemnly in response.
At that moment, his mind was in chaos. Since the beginning of filming, the production team had encountered various incidents. Now, someone had openly attacked a key member of the crew. As the director, he had to take responsibility for this.
Lu Zhao called the driver and asked him to escort them to the hospital.
“Where is the culprit? Did you catch them?” Lu Zhao asked.
Only then did everyone realize what they had missed. They had been busy attending to Xie Yun’s injuries, and it allowed the person who had thrown the sulfuric acid to escape in the chaos.
Lu Zhao held Luo Ying’s hand tightly. “Check all the surveillance cameras. We must find them,” he urged them.
After saying that, he looked at Luo Ying with concern. Luo Ying smiled faintly and patted the back of his hand in her attempt to reassure him.
Liu Sheng had swiftly left the scene and had hailed a taxi.
To avoid being traced, she had disguised herself as a beggar. Her face was covered in black ash and she blended in with the extras. She even held a broken basket.
The surprised taxi driver thought she was a young man engaging in some new cosplay.
Liu Sheng tightly gripped the basket. Her face was filled with hatred.
Damn it, why did someone intervene and protect Luo Ying at such a critical moment?
If all had gone to plan, Luo Ying would have been disfigured. Liu Sheng didn’t believe that Lu Zhao would still love an ugly, disfigured woman. Once Luo Ying was disfigured, the position of Mrs. Lu would be within her grasp.
But her plan had failed. She had to quickly escape the scene and ensure that the crew wouldn’t discover her involvement.
Buzz! Buzz!
Her phone rang.
It was Shen Lan.
She frowned in disgust. She hated Shen Lan. Why should Shen Lan have all the privileges? They were both her father’s daughters. Shen Lan was the cherished daughter of the Shen family, but she couldn’t have that status.
She knew her mother had blackmailed her father to treat her well, or else the Shen family’s business would be at risk.
Over the years, her father had treated her well and even allowed her to rise to the position of vice president.
But that was far from enough!
She wanted to replace Shen Lan and become the shining pearl of the Shen family.
Buzz! Buzz!
Her phone continued to ring. She reluctantly answered the call, but her voice quickly perked up.
“Hello dear, what’s wrong?” The intimate tone in her voice made it seem like they were still the best friends they used to be.
But now, when Shen Lan heard those words, she couldn’t help but feel disgusted..
