After her cultivation broke through the sixth level, Gong Qingyao could fly farther, so for a three-hour drive discance, she arrived in an hour.

Gong Qingyao walked directly to the hotel where the crew was located, only to hear a screaming at this time, it seemed that someone jumped off the stairs. Gong Qingyao didn't have time to rest, and once again ran the profound energy in her body, rushed up, and took the falling person over.

Since Gong Qingyao reminded Fang Jiayue in the afternoon, Fang Jiayue had reminded herself to pay attention. Fang Jiayue had just finished the afternoon filming, she was a little absentminded due to tiredness, so she planned to go back and have a good rest. However, Sun Panqiao came over and called her to eat together. 

Sun Panqiao was an actress who debuted at the same time as Fang Jiayue. The two had a good relationship. They had filmed many films together, and they were considered as cooperative partners. In ‘The Legend of the Song Dynasty’, Sun Panqiao played the female lead Jiang Feimeng's boudoir friend.

Fang Jiayue originally wanted to refuse, but Sun Panqiao insisted and pulled her, "Jiayue, it’s just having a meal together and relax, be a bit more energetic."

Fang Jiayue thought about it. In the afternoon, because of Gong Qingyao's words, she had been nervous until now. But Gong Qingyao’s words was probably because she was too deep into the play, "Okay."

"It's great." Sun Panqiao said happily.

Fang Jiayue planned to go back to her room to wash her face first, but as she turned around, Sun Panqiao's eyes showed a stern look.

The place to eat was on the top floor of the hotel. Fortunately, there were not many people at night. Sun Panqiao greeted the others. In addition to the director and the deputy director, there was also the assistant of the two actresses. Originally, Ji Wen was also called, but Ji Wen had other things to do.

The meal was very happy. They all talked until ten o'clock. Song Anxiang saw that it was not early anymore and said, "Everyone should go back to rest. There will be filming tomorrow morning." Everyone got up and prepared to go back.

Outside the hotel there was an outdoor staircase for emergency. Sun Panqiao was standing out on the stairs, and beckoned Fang Jiayue. Sun Panqiao pointed to the distance, "Jiayue, see there, it is beautiful."

Fang Jiayue thought that there would be no accident today. In addition, everyone had a very happy conversation just now. Her vigilance had long been relaxed. She looked outside, and the capital in the distance was brightly lit. It was really beautiful.

"Isn’t it beautiful?" Sun Panqiao asked.

For some reason, Fang Jiayue suddenly felt uneasy. At this moment, she felt a burst of strength behind her pushing herself forward. The stair’s iron railing actually fell down at this moment, and she also flew out. Only Sun Panqiao and the crowd screamed behind her.

Am I going to die? But she hadn't acted enough yet. This was Fang Jiayue's last thought.

Fang Jiayue closed her eyes, but then seemed to feel a warm embrace hug her. After that, she heard a cold voice from her head, "Are you hurt?"

Fang Jiayue raised her head, unexpectedly the other party was Gong Qingyao. Fang Jiayue stood up in shock, "I, how am I okay?" The hotel was seven stories high, but she fell from the top of the building without any injuries.

Fang Jiayue came back to her senses, and of course she also remembered what happened just now, "Did you save me?"

Gong Qingyao did not deny it.

All the crew that saw the incident ran down, "Jiayue, are you okay." Song Anxiang looked nervous. If something happened to Fang Jiayue, their drama would be over. The filming had already started, and Fang Jiayue was the best actress in his opinion. If something went wrong, it would be a hassle to find new actress again.

Fang Jiayue got up with a calm expression on her face, "Thank you Director Song for your concern. I'm fine, it was Qingyao who saved me." 

Song Anxiang discovered that Gong Qingyao appeared suddenly. Although it was dark outside, Song Anxiang indeed saw a white figure, albeit a bit blur, "Did you fly just now?" He thought he was dazzled.

Sun Panqiao didn’t pay any attention to Gong Qingyao, she looked at Fang Jiayue caringly, "Jiayue, are you okay? It scared me to death."

Fang Jiayue didn't pay attention to Sun Panqiao. She was obviously pushed just now, and Sun Panqiao was the closest to her. She looked at Song Anxiang and said, "Director Song, let's find a room to talk." Before leaving, Fang Jiayue called in her assistant Xiaoqing who was standing at the end, and said a few words in her ear.

Song Anxiang also knew that this was not a good place to talk, so he said, "Let’s go to the tea shop on the first floor." A few people went directly to a private room and ordered a pot of tea.

Fang Jiayue very kindly invited Gong Qingyao to sit down, and then sat down next to Gong Qingyao.

Song Anxiang sat on the opposite side. As for Sun Panqiao and the others, Fang Jiayue did not speak. Sun Panqiao saw Fang Jiayue's face and sat down beside her to say some caring words. This made Fang Jiayue feel nauseous, but she didn't show it on her face. 

Seeing that the door was closed tightly, Fang Jiayue said directly, "I was pushed down just now." As soon as these words were said, everyone's expressions changed. If Fang Jiayue was pushed down deliberately, this was murder!

Sun Panqiao's expression was a little unnatural, but soon returned to normal.

Song Anxiang reacted and asked, "Are you sure you were pushed down by someone?" The iron railing broke and fell along with Fang Jiayue, so the push should be very hard. However he didn't see clearly at that time. If seeing Fang Jiayue’s position, the culprit should be Sun Panqiao, because at that time, it was Sun Panqiao who was the closest to Fang Jiayue.

When Sun Panqiao saw Song Anxiang looking at her, she immediately got up and said, "It’s not me!" 

Such a quick denial was a bit suspicious. Sun Panqiao sat down and said slowly, "I was a good friend with Jiayue for so many years, how could I harm her? Besides, I was already walking forward at that time. How could I turn around and push her? Jiayue, how could I harm you?" Her tone was sincere and made Fang Jiayue feel somewhat wonder if she made a mistake.

Song Anxiang said, "Yes, she has no reason to push Jiayue."

When Fang Jiayue’s assistant came back, she said directly, "Sister Jiayue, there is no damage to the iron fence." The implication was it was not deliberate.

Then was it such a coincidence that Fang Jiayue just fell suddenly?

When Sun Panqiao heard this, she spoke harder, "Jiayue, I really never thought of harming you, why do you doubt me so much? It makes me really sad."

Fang Jiayue said, "I only said that I was pushed down, and I didn't say it was you. It was my fault that made you misunderstood." Her tone was much softer than before.

This Fang Jiayue was an innocent person. Gong Qingyao said, "If no one has damaged the railing, what about the screws holding the railing?" 

As soon as this word came out, Sun Panqiao's face changed and she said sharply, "What are you doing? There is no reason for you to intervene." 

Song Anxiang was unhappy when he heard this. What he hated most was celebrities playing big names. What's more, none of their actor or actresses could be counted as big stars.

Fang Jiayue was also a little unhappy , "Panqiao, if it weren't for Qingyao, I would be in the hospital." 

Unexpectedly, Song Anxiang and Fang Jiayue both spoke for this person. Sun Panqiao was really unhappy. How could this person suddenly come out? If not for her, Fang Jiayue would have died long ago, even if she didn't die, she would at least be disabled. Thinking of this, Sun Panqiao cast a stern look at Gong Qingyao.

Gong Qingyao didn’t even bother to take a look at Sun Panqiao, "No one answered my question just now, so I’ll continue."

Sun Panqiao still wanted to quibble, but she saw Gong Qingyao stretch out his finger, pointing in the air. Sun Panqiao found that she suddenly could not move or speak, and she showed a frightened expression, but no one was paying attention to her, everyone's eyes were on Gong Qingyao.

"Of course, the one that pushed Fang Jiayue didn't have to be Sun Panqiao or Director Song, it may also be the assistant." Gong Qingyao looked at the assistant who was sitting behind Fang Jiayue.

Fang Jiayue was stunned. Could it be her assistant Xiaoqing that did all this? Fang Jiayue looked at Xiaoqing incredulously, only to see a flash of surprise in Xiaoqing's eyes, and then she resumed her usual expression. Fang Jiayue saw Xiaoqing did not deny, and her heart gradually cooled, "So the screw was also her works?"

"No." Gong Qingyao said, "The screw was Sun Panqiao’s trick, but she was very clever. She didn't do it herself, but asked others."

Fang Jiayue's heart became colder and colder. In one evening, she was betrayed by two friends, especially Xiaoqing. Since her debut, Xiaoqing had been following Fang Jiayue. Although the two were colleague, Fang Jiayuw also regarded Xiaoqing as a friend, even as a family member.

From beginning to end, Xiaoqing did not deny a word.

After Gong Qingyao finished speaking and was about to leave, Lu Qianqian on the side said, "Master, it's getting late now, let's stay here for one night."

Gong Qingyao knew Lu Qianqian wanted to follow the gossip, but still stayed in the end.

It took Song Anxiang a long time to digest the revelation. He looked at Fang Jiayue. After all, this matter still depended on how Fang Jiayue was going to deal with it.

Fang Jiayue looked at Xiaoqing and asked, "Why?"

Xiaoqing shook his head and said nothing.

"Are you forced?" Fang Jiayue asked again.

Xiaoqing still shook her head, "All this is my initiative. No one intimidated me."

Fang Jiayue looked at Sun Panqiao, "Then you? Why do you do this?"

Gong Qingyao broke Sun Panqiao's seal, and she started to laugh, she laughed and cried, "Why? We debut together, but you can play the heroine so quickly, while I become supporting role for you every time. Do you know what netizen call me? They call me your forever sidekick."

"Am I inferior to you?" Sun Panqiao pointed to Fang Jiayue, "Only when you are dead, this heroine's position will be mine."

Fang Jiayue didn't expect this to be the reason, and she was even more disappointed. When Sun Panqiao had no work, Fang Jiayue always recommended her to the director on her work, but she did not expect that Sun Panqiao would repay that help in this way.

Song Anxiang said at the right time, "You got your role because of Jiayue’s recommendation."

"So? If there is no her, I would be the heroine." Sun Pan Qiao said.

Song Anxiang was shocked. If there was no Fang Jiayue, he would still not use Sun Panqiao. Her acting skills were not good, and her appearance was a bit mean. But he didn't say this. Song Anxiang felt that Sun Panqiao was probably crazy at this moment. Song Anxiang looked at Fang Jiayue, "What are you going to do with this matter?"

Fang Jiayue closed her eyes and said, "Call the police."

Sun Panqiao heard this and sat on the ground, while Xiaoqing, bowed her head and no longer dared to look up.

The police arrived soon. Sun Panqiao and Xiaoqing confessed to the fact that they committed the crime of attempted murder.
