Chapter 558: Not Bad, Very Swift and Efficient
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When a woman chose to end her life on the birthday of her husband’s illegitimate child, she had to be very disappointed with the man and the world.
The father and son continued to argue as Gu Mian listened in on their conversation. The more she heard, the more shocked she became.
When Tang Jiyun came out of the apartment, Gu Mian quickly hid in a corner. Once he entered the elevator, she stepped out of her hiding place.
More than ten minutes later, Gu Mian returned to the apartment. When she entered the living room, Tang Zui was smoking on the couch with his eyebrows scrunched up tightly. The gloomy look on his face made her heart ache.
Tang Zui stared at Gu Mian for a moment, and she felt as though she could barely breathe. Just as she wanted to ask him what he wanted to eat for dinner, he suddenly stood up and left.
Gu Mian’s phone started to ring. She took it out and glanced at it. It was a call from Tang Ming. She stared at the number on the screen in a daze. In the end, she decided not to answer the call, and she let the screen turn dim.
…..
The following day, Su Qianxun went to the studio early. After she got out of the car in the underground parking lot, she went to take the elevator.
There was another crew member in the elevator’s waiting area. He was carrying a lot of props. Su Qianxun stopped and realized that another person was standing next to her. It was Rong Yebai in a pair of sungla.s.ses. He was using his phone, and he was alone.
Rong Yebai ignored her, so Su Qianxun naturally did not bother to acknowledge his presence as well.
The elevator doors opened, and the three of them walked in one after another. Once she entered the elevator, Su Qianxun immediately proceeded to stand in a corner to be as far away from the man as possible.
Rong Yebai took off his sungla.s.ses and snorted. “Not bad, you’re very swift and efficient.”
Puzzled, Su Qianxun furrowed her eyebrows and looked at him. She asked, “What do you mean?”
“Don’t tell me that you managed to get the leading role back because the advertiser had a guilty conscience about what he did.” Rong Yebai gave her a look of contempt.
“No matter how I got the role back, I didn’t do the disgusting thing you a.s.sumed I did!”
Frankly, Su Qianxun did not think she needed to explain herself to him, but she did not like to be falsely accused of something that she did not do.
Rong Yebai did not seem to believe her, but Su Qianxun did not care if he was convinced or not.
The crew member, who was standing in front of them, was carrying a heavy load. He did not hold onto the box of props properly, and it fell onto the floor. Some powder flew out of the box.
Then, the elevator doors opened. He quickly lifted the box and left.
Su Qianxun did not mind at all, while Rong Yebai, who was standing next to her, went pale. He suddenly had difficulty breathing. He pressed his hands against the wall to support himself and slowly slid down to the floor.
He had startled Su Qianxun, and she asked anxiously, “Hey, what’s going on with you?”
Rong Yebai’s face contorted and turned white. He was gasping for air, almost suffocating. Su Qianxun immediately knew that he was having an allergic asthma attack!
She recalled the powder from the box, which the crew member was carrying. ‘Sh*t. Rong Yebai’s allergic to that powder!’
“Medication. Where’s your medication?” Su Qianxun immediately rushed over and searched through his pockets. Her maternal grandfather had asthma, so she was certain that asthmatic patients usually had medication on them.
Just like the old man she had saved on the street some time ago, he had the same condition!
However, she searched all his pockets and did not find his medication.
Su Qianxun simply could not believe that the guy did not bring his medication with him everywhere even though he had a deadly health condition.
Rong Yebai was almost suffocating completely. Su Qianxun immediately pressed the b.u.t.ton to the nearest floor. The elevator doors opened, and she dragged Rong Yebai out.
Su Qianxun did not even know how she did it. Rong Yebai was tall and st.u.r.dy. Normally, she would not have been able to move him. But that day, she felt as if she got him out of the elevator effortlessly.
As it turned out, a human’s potential was infinite!
