Chapter 225: Making the First Move

Translator: Zayn_

Chen Lan helped Song Qingyou tidy up her clothes and asked, “What happened just now? I saw you talking to Zhu Jiao here. The people who were watching the show were all stunned.”

Song Qingyou told her what had happened in a few words.

“You suspect that she wants to attack Zhizhi?” asked Chen Lan.

“I’m not suspecting. I’m sure.” Song Qingyou looked at Zhizhi, who was stuffed into his cat carrier. “Zhu Jiao was holding something like catnip in her hand just now. She wanted to attract Zhizhi over.”

However, for some reason, Zhizhi was not only indifferent, but he also looked like she wanted to escape.

“Then we should be careful. Zhizhi is just a pet. If Zhu Jiao really wants to do something, the consequences won’t be too serious.”

Chen Lan muttered and gave Song Qingyou a lot of suggestions.

This included, but was not limited to, keeping Zhizhi in her house or locking him up in a hotel room during the day.

“How can you guard against thieves for a thousand days?” Song Qingyou raised her eyebrows.

“You mean…”

“Doesn’t He Jun know a lot of paparazzi?” Song Qingyou’s voice was cold. “Let the paparazzi follow Zhu Jiao for a few more days.”

“Do you want to see what she has against you? I understand.”

Chen Lan nodded and immediately sent a message to He Jun.

Song Qingyou didn’t just want to get hold of Zhu Jiao, she also wanted to kick Zhu Jiao out of the crew.

Anyway, Zhu Jiao did not have many scenes and her acting skills could only be considered above average. It was not that she could not find a replacement in the industry.

“I remember that Shu Ling’s drama should be almost finished, right?”

“She can finish filming by the beginning of next month.” Chen Lan knew the company’s artistes like the back of her hand.

“Arrange an assistant for her. After filming that drama, let her take on other jobs first.”

Although Chen Lan was puzzled, she still agreed.

Luo Hongqing didn’t give Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai any more time to rehearse, and directly let the two stand in front of the camera.

Song Qingyou was already used to filming, so she wasn’t nervous.

Surprisingly, Yu Muhuai was equally calm.

“What just happened?” He lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice, “I heard from the crew that someone drugged your cat?”

“Are rumors always this fast?” Song Qingyou was stunned for a moment before she chuckled.

In the end, would people think that something had happened to Zhizhi?

ii

Is it a rumor?” Yu Muhuai glanced sideways.

“Half and half.”

Song Qingyou explained.

Yu Muhuai nodded and said no more.

After a while, she suddenly said, “I’m sorry. I’ve been under the scrutiny of the media recently. Sister Su told me to avoid contact with the opposite sex as much as possible.”

“Understandable.”

Song Qingyou didn’t think too much about it.

Yu Muhuai was quite active in the group. Occasionally, when he saw beautiful scenery or interesting things, he would share them with her in a private chat.

Therefore, there must be a reason why he was a little cold on set.

The two of them didn’t say much before they put on the masks set by the characters in the movie.

The light in the room was very dim.

Under the moonlight, the blood splattered on the wall looked like a dark red rose on the black mask under the girl’s hood.

Shen Iluan looked at the lifeless body at her feet, her eyes dark.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside, and a black figure appeared against the light.

Shen Huan’s pupils constricted, and she raised her knife warily.

The person who walked closer was wearing a black tuxedo that looked exaggerated no matter how one looked at it. He was wearing black gloves and holding a bouquet of red roses.

If one did not look at the ghastly white mask on his face, this person looked like a gentleman who was dressed to the nines.

Shen lluan’s eyes flashed as she charged at the man with her short knife.

This was the first time she had killed a man. No matter what, she couldn’t leave any witness.

No matter who this man was, she had to keep his mouth shut forever!

Shen Iluan pressed forward.

However, the man was obviously much better at fighting than her. He grabbed her wrist that was holding the knife.

Then, under Shen Huan’s shocked gaze, he took the initiative to point the knife at his own neck. The first words he said on their first meeting were spoken in a teaching tone, “Large knives are used for chopping.”

“What a short knife needs is a stab. Take advantage of the moment when the opponent is unprepared and stab straight at the vital points.”

His voice was hoarse, as if he was wearing a voice changer.

Shen Huan did not understand what the other party meant. She gripped the hilt of her knife tightly, wanting to pierce the other party’s throat.

The man exerted a little force and her knife fell to the ground.

A low and hoarse laugh came out from behind the white mask. The words that came out of his mouth were still in the same teaching tone as before.

“If your skills are inferior, you have to show your weakness to the enemy.”

“Then, find the best time to assassinate him.”

Shen Huan could not move her hands, but she finally had the thought of communicating with the person in front of her.

“Who are you?”

“You can call me-”

The man paused for two seconds and gave a random name. “Grey”

“How did you find this place?” Shen Huan frowned.

The man sized her up. “It was too obvious.”

“What do you mean?”

“Your intention to commit the crime was too obvious.”

The man let go of Shen Huan’s hand and casually blocked a few of her attacks.

“Didn’t you notice?” The man continued, “Someone has been following you.”

Shen Iluan looked at him and calmed down.

“Not just me.”

There was no need for this person to lie.

Shen Iluan came to this conclusion almost instantly.

She planned to leave this mysterious man behind and go around him to look for possible witnesses.

Grey grabbed her wrist again.

“What are you here for? Are you threatening me?”

Shen Huan could not break free. She was a little annoyed that she was too careless and did not even know that she was being followed!

Grey didn’t respond. He handed the roses in his other hand over.

“I’m here to give you roses,” he said in a hoarse voice.

If she were a normal person, she would have scolded him for being sick.

“You know who I am?” Shen Iluan stared at him, her voice cold.

Grey shook his heads and stuffed the bouquet of roses into the girl’s hands, then picked one of them and put it into the mouth of the people in the room.

“What are you doing?” Shen Huan asked him.

Grey: “A memorial.”

The memory of the first time the rose had turned dark red.

Shen Huan understood what he meant. While feeling baffled, she sneered and said, “Now, you and I are accomplices.”

“Take me to the witness you mentioned.”

“Otherwise, the fish will die and the net will fail.

■I

Grey didn’t answer. He took one last look at the scene, turned around, and walked out.

Shen Iluan quickly followed.

After a while, the two of them arrived at an abandoned warehouse.

On one of the walls of the warehouse, there was a blooming rose the size of an adult, carved with blood.

In front of the wall was a corpse tied to a wooden stake, in the same position as the rose on the wall.

It was simply like a work of art.

Shen Huan’s eyes were filled with excitement.

Grey stood at the side, like a deacon serving a noble.

“I’m glad you like it.”

From that night onward, Shen Huan had stayed in contact with the man in the white mask, but she still kept her distance vigilantly and never probed into his appearance or identity..

Chapter 226: Not Song Qingyu

Cut!

ii

Luo Hongqing was very satisfied.

This “cut” sounded a little excited.

“Song Qingyou can go rest now. Yu Muhuai, wait a moment. Your positioning isn’t right. You need to film a few more shots.”

It had been a long time since he had filmed such a smooth scene. Luo Hongqing was in a good mood and his tone was much gentler.

Most of the crew didn’t expect Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai to perform so well.

It seemed that the news that Song Qingyou had bribed her way into the crew was just a rumor.

Anyone who had talked about Song Qingyou behind her back felt guilty.

So after a few scenes, Song Qingyou and the rest of the crew also started interacting harmoniously.

In the afternoon, they were mainly shooting Zhao Yingnan’s scenes. Since there were no other main leads in the dressing room, Song Qingyou quickly went to remove her makeup and prepared to go to the theater.

At this moment, Zhong Jiayin’s cup fell to the ground with a loud thud.

“Did I ever tell you that this is my favorite cup and that you should stay away from me?” Zhong Jiayin flared up.

“Sister Zhong, I didn’t do it on purpose…”

Hearing Zhu Jiao’s voice, Song Qingyou had a feeling that she was right.

“Are you trying to make others think that I’m bullying you by putting on such a pitiful look?”

ii

No, Sister Zhong, I’ll compensate you for the cup…”

“Compensate? How are you going to compensate me? How can my precious
