Chapter 56: Buying A Role
Yin Yue saw that she was silent and thought that she was admitting to it. She was so angry that she ignored the pain of her broken leg and crawled over, wanting to tear Jiang Zhi apart.
Zhang He hurriedly stopped her. “We were all watching. It was clearly you who wasn’t good at riding and you lost your footing. How could you blame Miss Jiang! It looks like you were muddled from the fall. Quickly go to the hospital, get your head scanned and deal with it!”
This stupid woman, how dare she go against Jiang Zhi at this time!
Yin Yue shouted, “Why are you still protecting her! I’m sure she did it on purpose!”
Zhang He could only cover her mouth.
Jiang Zhi curled the corners of her lips and deliberately added fuel to the fire as she said with concern, “Oh dear, it looks like your injuries are quite serious. You won’t be able to recover even if given three months. What should we do? Why don’t Director Zheng replace your role?!
“Otherwise, you’ll feel uneasy if the entire production team comes to a halt, won’t you?”
Jiang Zhi returned her words to Yin Yue in their entirety.
Yin Yue was so angry that her lips trembled. Her eyes were filled with hatred, but she had no way to refute her.
When Jiang Zhi saw her like this, she felt extremely happy. She gently waved her hand and watched as she boarded the ambulance and headed to the hospital.
Within a short period of time, two horse accidents had happened on the production team, causing people’s hearts to waver.
Director Zheng informed the production team to suspend filming for two days for the damage control of their reputation. Then, he went to find Jiang Zhi and said with admiration in his eyes, “I never expected you to be so proficient in horsemanship. Your posture and poise are comparable to a martial artist’s! I will inform the production team to adjust the shooting time and scene schedule so that you can temporarily take Yu Wan’s place in the action scenes…
“But she needs to recover as soon as possible. We can’t delay any more of the other scenes!”
“Beacon’s” crew had encountered the most difficulties and accidents since Director Zheng started his career!
Jiang Zhi nodded and wanted to rush to the hospital to check on Yu Wan’s condition.
Lu Mian reached out to block the car door and grabbed the car keys. He held the steering wheel and raised his eyebrows at her. “It’s a little difficult to go to the hospital at night while she is resting. Rather than having me worry about you, why don’t I go with you…”
Jiang Zhi was indeed tired. She sat in the co-passenger’s seat obediently and fastened her seatbelt.
The temperature in the car was adjusted to a suitable temperature. The car stereo was playing soothing pure music. Jiang Zhi shut her eyes and leaned against the back of the chair. She slowly fell asleep as the car moved steadily.
In the parking lot of the hospital, Lu Mian stopped the car and looked at her sleeping face quietly. He had never felt so satisfied in his heart.
Half an hour later, Jiang Zhi woke up and met his eyes. She felt a little uncomfortable as she got off the car and went upstairs.
In the elevator, Lu Mian looked at the rising red number and wrapped her in his arms. He lowered his head and leaned closer to her side face with a sense of aggression and oppression. He caressed her hair and asked in a sexy and lazy voice, “Did you throw Yin Yue off the horse on purpose?”. 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚
“You threw her off the horse on purpose?” He was very sure.
Jiang Zhiru raised her starry eyes and smiled. She admitted, “I had a good teacher. Of course, I have to put his teachings to use!”
If not for the fact that Lu Mian had deliberately thrown Jiang Lu off her horse and inspired her, she would not have thought of this method.
“HMM?”
Lu Mian chuckled. “Since I taught you so well, can I ask you for a little tuition fee?”
Then, he pressed her shoulders and kissed her soft lips, taking over every inch of her territory…
Jiang Zhi’s legs went weak. She hooked her arms around his neck and her breathing became rapid.
Lu Mian caught a glimpse of the number of the elevator that was about to arrive. He let go of her and pressed his hands against her hair. He said with a smile, “I have more things to teach you. Do you want to learn?
“However, I might need to change the location.”
Jiang Zhi could hear the hidden meaning in his words. She frowned and glared at him coquettishly!
In the ward, Yin Yue and Yu Wan had been assigned to the same room.
Through the hospital curtain, Yin Yue heard Yu Wan seeming to be talking to someone. Her tone was anxious.
“Yu Wan, your mother’s condition is not good recently. She needs to undergo surgery as soon as possible. When are you going to the hospital to pay the arrears and the surgery fees?”
Yu Wan bit her fingertip. “Please give me a few more days…”
“I can’t delay them any longer! This weekend at the latest!”
Yu Wan’s voice trembled as she repeatedly thanked her. “Don’t worry! I’ll be able to get my salary very soon. Please take good care of my mother…”
The phone rang and hung up. She covered her face and sobbed.
Yin Yue pricked up her ears to eavesdrop.
Yu Wan urgently needed money? Wasn’t this the best opportunity!!
Yin Yue forgot that her injured leg was still in a cast. She pushed the board aside and looked at Yu Wan’s red eyes as she pretended to be kind. “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your phone call, but if you need money, I can give it to you!
“Your injury is quite serious. You definitely won’t be able to return to the set for filming in a short period of time. Why don’t you take the money and leave the set!”
Yin Yue endured the pain of her broken bones and continued to incite her, “This amount of money will not only help you get through the current difficulties, but it will also be able to help your mother perform the surgery. It will also be able to subsidize the expenses of your hospitalization. It’s a very good deal!
“Don’t just wait for the production team. I’ve shot many movies and I know best how those people are like when they default on their payment. They don’t care that you’re in a hurry! The process will take months…”
“After you finish filming, I’m afraid you won’t be able to get your money for the next two or three months! Can your mother wait?”
