And so, Xue Lingqiao was forced to go to the studio for rehearsal.

His landlord really loved money and sold him for $50,000. That's right, to hang on wires, memorize lines, and to not hurt anyone, for $50,000. A small lump of gold could be exchanged for $50,000.puretl dot com is the original translator, please do not repost

Tian Jingzhi sat comfortably on the side watching Xue Lingqiao having his makeup done and then tied to high-tension wires. With a long black coat, and the hem of the clothes torn as if it had been gnawed by mice. He looks decadent and dark. He completely suited the great villain role. She had to admit that the director's vision was dead on.

Of course, as a monster, it's perfect for him to play the role of a monster.

Tian Jingzhi was on cloud nine and let out a strange chuckle from her throat.

The door of the dressing room opened. Zhang Xuanxuan was touching up her makeup when she turned her head and saw Tian Jingzhi's weird smile. With the sudden appearance of another person beside Tian Jingzhi, Zhang Xuanxuan couldn't help but doubt. After all, it was not Tian Jingzhi's style at all to get with another person so soon.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xuanxuan took out her mobile phone and dialed Li Yanzhi's number.

“Sister Xuanxuan?”

Zhang Xuanxuan said "hello" and said anxiously, “Xiaoyan, I am very suspicious of Tian Jingzhi's mental state. Is it because she was too stimulated by your rejection of marriage? Although there is no marriage line in her palm, I know how deep you feel for her... what's happening now is totally unreasonable…”

Li Yanyi was stunned: “What happened to her?”

“She found a boyfriend who had a tendency to be jealous and violent. She is now on the set.” Zhang Xuanxuan felt incredible even as she talked.

On the other end of the phone, Li Yanzhi was silent. After a long time, he said slowly, “We have broken up. It's none of my business who she is with... I'm sorry, Sister Xuanxuan, I'm a little busy right now. I'll contact you another day.”

Zhang Xuanxuan had a look of disbelief as she listened to the disconnect tone on her phone.

“Why the face?”

The door was not closed, and Hong Shiguang stood at the door with a bright smile, holding a bunch of white roses in his arms.

Zhang Xuanxuan shook her head and smiled helplessly, “It's nothing important.”

Hong Shiguang put the flowers in her hand, “Flowers for a beauty.”

Zhang Xuanxuan laughed, "Let's go, I'll show you around the set.”

The staff on the set quickly caused a commotion: Zhang Xuanxuan and Hong Shiguang, the golden pair were walking together intimately; arm in arm. Hong Shiguang's assistant was busy sending gifts to everyone, thanking everyone for taking care of Zhang Xuanxuan. The staff neglected their duties and secretly took pictures with their mobile phones. Zhang Xuanxuan glanced at Hong Shiguang next to her, and said with a low laugh, “If I’d known sooner, I would have invited you to the set earlier. The speed of these people taking pictures is even faster than tabloid reporters.”

Although Zhang Xuanxuan is used to the world surrounded by flashing lights, Hong Shiguang was not from the entertainment industry, so he may not like it. The two have a cooperative relationship. Although they are friends in private, behavior that makes the other person uncomfortable is absolutely forbidden.

Hong Shiguang didn't feel any discomfort, and kept smiling at her, “I've always wanted to see you at work, but I just did not want to bother you.”

Zhang Xuanxuan pretended to be surprised , “Ah! But you are a super philanthropist known as the “Light of the World”, who would feel bothered by you?”puretl dot com is the original translator, please do not repost

Hong Shiguang touched his face, “I will blush.”

“Oh yeah, let me introduce you to my best friend, Tian Jingzhi. I've long wanted to introduce you to…”

It was then a panicked scream of a woman came from above their heads. Zhang Xuanxuan and Hong Shiguang were startled and looked up reflexively. On the rooftop, a black figure holding eagle claws descended from the sky like an avenger, his clothes flowed behind him.

Hong Shiguang, who came to the studio for the first time, was frightened by the sudden scene and froze. Xue Lingqiao landed steadily in front of Zhang Xuanxuan and Hong Shiguang. Zhang Xuanxuan was amazed by his neat skills and handsome technique. Xue Lingqiao lowered his head to check the high-tension wires on his waist and found one side loose.

On the rooftop, the director stretched out his head and shouted nervously, “Are you alright?”

A crew member shouted back, “He’s alright! The wire was loose!”

“Did you guys not eat?! You’re responsible for any accidents!”

Xue Lingqiao patted the dust on his knees and stood up. He nodded to Zhang Xuanxuan who had been staring at him. With the director's shout, Xue Lingqiao was pulled back to the rooftop by high-tension wires.

Zhang Xuanxuan came back to her senses and turned to look at Hong Shiguang, only to find that he was standing there blankly, eyes dull.

“Startled? They seem to be shooting a scene right now…”

Hong Shiguang's face was pale and he forced himself to laugh, “...The appearance and props are frightening.”

Zhang Xuanxuan was about to make fun of him, but saw Hong Shiguang's body swaying twice. A smile still remained on his face as Hong Shiguang fell straight back. Zhang Xuanxuan was startled and shouted for help, “My fiance is not well, call an ambulance!”

The shooting scene was in chaos.
