Chapter 40: Another Hot Search

Chapter 40

Liu Xin, Chen Chen, Qin Kaili and Sheng Lin had just arrived and saw Qin Wei and Gu Minghua sitting at the bar, still unaware of what had happened.

Qin Kaili cautiously asked Qin Wei, who looked exhausted:

"The police came just now, do you know what happened?"

Gu Minghua told her:

"Miss Qin was harassed by a drunkard, but fortunately I noticed and called the police just now to arrest him."

Qin Kaili nodded and gently patted Qin Wei's shoulder:

"Wei, you must have been so frightened!"

Qin Wei replied that she was fine.

After hearing this, Chen Chen also felt relieved. Although she had no feelings for Qin Wei, she didn't want any accidents to happen during filming either. She glanced at Gu Minghua and said:

"Luckily Hayden said he was coming to find you, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. But I'm glad nothing serious happened."

Qin Wei suddenly asked her:

"By the way, where did you guys go? How come I didn't know?"

Chen Chen answered truthfully:

"Dancing! We were all on the dance floor! Liu Xin said she asked you, but you didn't want to go... Just now, Liu Xin said there were going to be fireworks outside, so we all went out. Hayden didn't want you to miss it, so he came to get you. We stood outside the door for a long time but didn't see you guys come out. Then we saw the police coming and going, so we came in to check."

Did Liu Xin call her? How come she didn't know...

Qin Wei turned to look at Liu Xin, whose gaze instinctively looked away before hurriedly changing the subject:

"Oh my, it was a close call. As long as you're fine, it's getting late, let's go back to the hotel and rest. We still have filming tomorrow!"

Gu Minghua glanced at his watch:

"Yes, it is quite late, let's go back!"

Looking at the text messages on her phone screen, Chen Xinya thought it was good that she had paid her friend in cash so there would be no transfer records. And her friend was also cautious, using a virtual account on the foreign internet to transfer money to the other party, which would leave traces but it would still be very difficult to trace back to him.

So when she found out the foreigner who was paid to harass Qin Wei had been arrested and he couldn't expose who had hired him with money, Chen Xinya was not too worried.

She was just annoyed that she had spent at least 100,000 yuan, but it didn't harm Qin Wei at all?

...

The production team was also scared to death by the guest's near miss. They held an emergency meeting overnight, afraid that if this incident was exposed it would impact filming, so they told everyone to keep quiet and not mention anything that happened tonight.

But there's no such thing as airtight walls in this world, especially nowadays when so many Chinese are studying, working and living in the UK - of course there would be some who go to bars for nightlife. Although the whole crew had come discreetly at first and didn't draw attention, how could no one notice when something happened at the bar and the police arrived?

Many recognized Qin Wei at a glance.

So someone posted online, and that night's events immediately blew up:

【I actually saw Qin Wei at the Lambeth's bar! I don't know who the girl came with, she was drinking at the bar and got harassed. The police even came, I have pics for evidence, take a look at what I shot. [View pics] [View pics] [View pics]】

【WTF it really is Sister Qin! Bro you've got guts, daring to call Sister Qin a girl!】

【If you count carefully, Qin Wei isn't even twenty-three yet, not everyone should call her sister, not all of us are fans who know her...】

【Getting drunk abroad, nice!】

【She's always had issues with her lifestyle. If someone came to harass her instead of someone else, it must have been her own fault, otherwise how to explain the hotel thing with other men before?】

【Maybe Qin Wei was the one soliciting him? They didn't agree on something so the other got angry out of humiliation?】

【I was there too, you can check my location on my profile.

Qin Wei was there filming, and got harassed by a drunkard during it. One of the guys with her couldn't stand watching and helped her, even calling the police. To be honest, Qin Wei was quite innocent the whole time.

The production team failed to properly protect her. I find some of the comments above disgusting. Can we just discuss facts nicely? Basic respect is still needed!】

【u1s1, Sister Qin really is quite miserable, we anti-fans just want her to retire. Fellow netizens, don't go overboard with malicious words, let's be civilized!】
