Chapter 203: You Are An Accomplice
Lu Xianzhi had not expected that his worst fears would come true. The person who had gotten into trouble was not the female lead. Ling Sheng was fine, but the female supporting actress, Xiaxia, was in trouble.
“You did it, right? Did you do it?” Lu Xianzhi’s eyes were red as his hand trembled uncontrollably.
It had to be her!
That d*mn old woman!
She should wait and see. He would definitely make her die a horrible death!
“Why are you so agitated? I kept my promise and didn’t hurt your childhood sweetheart. You have to let me vent my anger!” Zhao Hong had just gotten on a private plane. When she saw the photos, she giggled and sent him her photos one by one. Her eyes were full of joy and wariness. “Look at this photo. You’re smiling at her. And this one. Oh my, my heart hurts. She’s so close to you because she wants to seduce you!”
“Zhao Hong!” Lu Xianzhi gritted his teeth. “You know that we’re just colleagues. I don’t have any feelings for her. Why did you do that?”
“Why? She likes you and wants to seduce you. You’re mine, and I won’t allow anyone to spy on you. Don’t you know that?” Zhao Hong smiled and blew at her red nails. “Do you see that? That’s what happens to women who foolishly think of seducing you. I’ve already given you enough face by not killing her. Why aren’t you thanking me?”
“You evil woman!” Lu Xianzhi tried his best to calm down before he could control the impulse to kill her.
She deserved to be punished by the law. He could tolerate a b.l.o.o.d.y feud. It was alright. He would personally send her to prison and watch her suffer forever.
“Go ahead and scold me. Everyone says that beating is a form of affection and scolding is a form of love. The more you scold me, the happier I will be.” Zhao Hong looked out of the window. The blue sky and white clouds were really nice. The corners of her lips were twisted, and her face looked like a demon’s. She then asked, “Little Lu, is this solely my responsibility? Think about it. You’re also an accomplice. You clearly saw how drunk she was yesterday. You could have taken her back home, but what did you do? You chose to go find your childhood sweetheart. Don’t push all the blame on me. I’m innocent.”
Hatred rolled in Lu Xianzhi’s eyes. He did not want to hear her voice anymore, so he hung up directly. He leaned against the cold wall and looked up, laughing miserably.
Right!
Yesterday, he had had the opportunity to avoid a tragedy, but he had been anxious and selfish, thus neglecting another drunk girl.
The film crew had gotten off work and Xiaxia had gotten into trouble. Everyone had drunk too much last night and had returned to their hotel rooms. However, her a.s.sistant had not been able to find her and had called the police.
In the end, the police had found her in a forest by the roadside. She had been discovered by a citizen who had woken up in the morning and gone for a run. She was naked and covered in injuries. She had been drunk and raped.
There were not many surveillance cameras in the small city. There were even fewer surveillance cameras in a blind spot like this. If a murderer was not caught, the police would be helpless.
Yi Jinrong had not expected this to happen when filming was about to end. If the news broke, the movie would be finished. His efforts would go down the drain. He could only discuss it with Xiaxia and see how he could suppress the issue.
Ling Sheng did not know what to feel. Yesterday, the two girls had been having fun together. When she entered the ward, she, who had always been talkative, did not know what to say to comfort her for the first time.
Xiaxia was already awake. Upon seeing her approach, she shooed the workers away.
“Xiaxia.” Ling Sheng walked over to her side. When she saw the girl’s bruised face, she felt sad.
“You’re here.” As soon as Xiaxia finished speaking, she raised her hand and slapped her face.
