“Miss Ou said that she would be going to the set to audition for a role. We waited outside until the audition was over. When we went to search for her, those people said that they didn’t see Miss Ou entering at all.”
“Look for her! Send more people to split up and find her. You can’t let anything happen to her!
Due to the fact that she had left in a hurry because she was eager about finding Ou Lixue, she knocked into someone whom she apologized to before scrambling away.
To her surprise, someone grabbed her forcefully. Thinking it was Rong Yan, she turned around to glare at him furiously while thinking to herself, haven’t I already apologized? What more does he want?
However, she gaped in shock when she realized that it was Feng Churui. Just as she was about to curse, she stopped and fell silent. Feng Churui asked with a smile, “You’re in such a hurry. Where are you rus.h.i.+ng off to?”
“I have something urgent to attend to. Young Master Feng, I’ll get going now.” Before Feng Churui could even react, Luo Anning hurriedly scurried away.
Feng Churui fell deep into thought while watching her vanish out of sight…
…
Halfway through her journey to the address of the set of the entertainment company, which was given to her by the bodyguard, she received a call from Ou Lixue. After taking a look at the number, Luo Anning heaved a sigh of relief.
“Ou Lixue, why did you go missing for no reason!?! Where are you now?”
“Young Madam Rong, I’m at Qingxin Hospital now. Could you make a trip here… No one wants to be my friend anymore ever since I helped you set Xinya up… ”
Luo Anning was rather repulsed by her words ‘set up’. However, upon hearing that she was in the hospital, she immediately hung up and headed to Qingxin hospital.
When she arrived, she found Ou Lixue who was being put on the drip, and walked towards her. She took a seat beside her and questioned in a hostile manner, “Ou Lixue, didn’t you say that you’d be going for an audition? Why couldn’t I find you on set? Why have you ended up in the hospital?”
Ou Lixue’s eyes were gla.s.sy and they suddenly turned red when she stared at Luo Anning who frowned in confusion.
“Young Madam Rong, I regret it now… I shouldn’t have helped you set Xinya up. I don’t have any friends now and it’s going to be tough for me to secure my footing in the s...o...b..z industry. I really regret it now… ”
Ou Lixue’s voice was rather high-pitched and everyone in the room frantically turned to look at her. Upon sight of Luo Anning, the Young Madam of a wealthy family, everyone began to gossip.
“Shut up!”
Luo Anning scanned her surroundings before lowering her volume. “Ou Lixue, what are you getting up to? Did you get me to come here, just to hear you say that you’re regretting it? Besides, it is a matter of fact that you were the one who leaked the information. How is that called setting you up?”
Seemingly having suddenly realized the inappropriateness of her words, Ou Lixue smiled apologetically and said, “I’m sorry, Young Madam Rong. I shouldn’t have acted that way.”
She instructed the nurse to remove the needle from her arm and suggested that they go to the rooftop to speak privately since it would be inconvenient to do so in the room.
Luo Anning promised her apprehensively and followed her to the rooftop while keeping her guard up. Ou Lixue was not in high spirits throughout and seemed to be extremely lethargic.
…
One hour later in the office of Baina International.
After answering a call, Xu Zhiyuan anxiously barged into the meeting room and leaned towards Rong Yan. “Young Master Rong, bad news. Young Madam has been accused of attempted murder and she’s already been arrested by the police!”
Upon hearing her words, his face turned sullen and he said with a murderous gaze and in a low voice, “We’re heading to the police station now!”
