No matter how stupid Ye Qingqiu was, she knew what was going on.

In the beginning, he had convinced her to be his subst.i.tute. But now, he had changed his mind after receiving a call. Clearly, someone had pressured the director.

Now that Xiao Chu was standing here, it was obvious who was pressuring him.

Ten times?

Ye Qingqiu contemplated whether she should accept the money.

If he wanted it, he would be a little spineless.

No Could her backbone cure her sons eyes?

No, I want five times the price that I agreed on. Ive also acted for you.

At most she would accept more endors.e.m.e.nts or jobs for Pei Yaochi.

The director and Xiao Chu looked at each other. This was a little difficult.

Xiao Chu, why are you here?

Liang Xuers doubtful voice made Xiao Chu feel even more helpless.

Miss Liang, I was ordered by CEO Li to come to the set to check on the progress. This movie cant be delayed anymore

Liang Xuers heart skipped a beat. These words

It was obvious that Li Tingshen knew about the trending topic online and knew that she had deliberately delayed the progress. Hence, it was not difficult to explain why the director had been suppressing her these few days.

But

Actually, my leg is injured. Im afraid I cant film the rest of the scenes. Thats why I found a subst.i.tute to not delay my progress. Why didnt I let her film?

Xiao Chu pursed her lips and pondered for a moment. President Li values this drama very much and will continue to use it to win awards. Naturally, he doesnt want to use an unprofessional to ruin this drama. Moreover if news of you using a subst.i.tute gets out, it wont be good for you

Liang Xuer heaved a sigh of relief when Ye Qingqiu was not mentioned at all.

She was in a dilemma. But in my current state

Its okay. Your injury is a big deal. Its fine if you have to delay it for a few days.

Ye Qingqiu found it ridiculous.

It was indeed a secret.

Not wanting her to be a subst.i.tute, he put in a good word for Liang Xuer in front of everyone.

Indeed, this was the only way to convince Liang Xuer.

It was normal for him to be worried about Liang Xuer.

He couldnt say that he was most likely biased towards a woman he had secretly kept.

Moreover, it might really be the reason Xiao Chu had given.

She was unprofessional. She was afraid that she would ruin his drama and damage Liang Xuers reputation.

Liang Xuer was delighted and glanced at Ye Qingqiu.

Then, she asked Xiao Chu, Tingshen, are you going home or to the company?

Im not sure

Xiao Chu glanced at Ye Qingqiu, who was fiddling with her clothes. She paused and said, Maybe he will come here.

Just as Xiao Chu finished speaking, the sound of a car door closing came from afar. Then, one of Liang Xuers a.s.sistants shouted in surprise, CEO Li is here!

Ye Qingqiu frowned and Xiao Chus scalp tightened. She quickly gave the director a look.

The director understood and hurriedly said, Ill give you the money, ten times the amount. So hurry up and get off the stage. This scene is tiring and dangerous

Ye Qingqiu glanced at the cliff that was more than ten meters tall and pursed her lips.

She had made a killing by taking ten times the money.

Alright, transfer the money to my account first.

Okay, okay, okay! Ill transfer it now!

Seeing that CEO Li had already walked over, the directors voice trembled.

Ye Qingqiu didnt say anything and lowered her head to remove her wires.

Li Tingshen walked straight over. His tall and slender figure was wrapped in an expensive suit. He was an elegant gentleman with a cold and n.o.ble aura. His dark and calm eyes seemed to be staring straight at Ye Qingqiu.

Liang Xuers heart tightened and she subconsciously glanced at Ye Qingqiu. After some thought, she s.h.i.+fted her body slightly and stood in front of Ye Qingqiu. She turned to the director and said, Director, since we have to hurry, let me film.

The director frowned. But the injury on your knee

Its okay

Li Tingshen stood in front of them. His tall stature didnt make Ye Qingqiu disappear from his sight.

Tingshen, youre here

Liang Xuer walked forward with a smile. Li Tingshen retracted his gaze from Ye Qingqiu and turned to the director.

What is she going to do?

The directors legs felt weak. This

Liang Xuer hurriedly replied, Its me. I was injured during filming just now. The director didnt want to delay my progress. Coincidentally, Qingqius appearance was similar to mine, so he planned to use her as my subst.i.tute

Your subst.i.tute?

Li Tingshen glanced at her and Liang Xuer suddenly felt an indescribable sense of shame.

Yes, but Ive thought about it. After all, Qingqiu isnt a professional actress. Its better for me to do it.

Li Tingshen looked at Ye Qingqiu again. Youre acting just because I told you to? Dont you know your place?

Everyones gaze landed on Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Qingqiu paused and looked up at Li Tingshen with a frown. She said casually, It seems like CEO Li knows my capabilities.

After saying that, Ye Qingqiu felt that something was amiss. Her face darkened and she hastened to remove the bandage on her shoulder.

Liang Xuer stood at the side and bit her lips tightly. Tingshen, I said Ill act

Ye Qingqiu.

Li Tingshens gaze was fixed on Ye Qingqiu. He suddenly spoke again, as if he didnt hear Liang Xuers words.

Walk inside. He paused again. Dont stand there.

Everyone looked at Ye Qingqiu in confusion and realized that she was standing at the edge of the cliff.

Li Tingshen was reminding her or in other words, he was afraid that she would fall.

Liang Xuers face turned pale.

She panicked and staggered two steps back.

She b.u.mped into the defenseless Ye Qingqiu.

Ye Qingqius body swayed and her face froze. Her face turned pale and she fell off the cliff.

Liang Xuer vaguely knew what she had b.u.mped into. Just as she was about to turn around to take a look, she was pushed to the side by a strong force. She fell to her knees and felt a sharp pain on her knees.

The people around them panicked and screamed.

Li Tingshen was kneeling on the ground with one hand on the edge of the cliff and the other on Ye Qingqius slender wrist.

Ye Qingqius face was pale. She had removed half of the wires on her body. She had been removing the rest just now. She didnt know how much she had undone. Perhaps in the next second

With a bang, the lock on her left shoulder popped open and her body sank.

Her grip on his arm suddenly tightened.

She looked up and saw clear veins popping out on Li Tingshens handsome face.

She bit her lips and lowered her head to look down the cliff. At that height, she might survive if she fell into the water, but if she fell onto the reef

He might as well bring her home to eat dumplings.

Ye Qingqiu felt that her cold words were ruining the scenery. However, she couldnt cry at this moment.

Dont look down! Li Tingshens voice suddenly sounded above her head. She looked up and saw fresh blood on her wrist.

The blood came from Li Tingshens sleeve.

She frowned and looked away.

Xiao Chu stood by the cliff.

It was said that anyone who refused to help would be a fool.

In fact, at this time, there were no guardrails around. If she wanted to save someone, she could only lie on the cliff like Li Tingshen. She could only face one person and not the other.

If the people around wanted to save him, they could only help Li Tingshen.

However, Li Tingshens position was the most convenient for him to exert strength. As long as he moved, he would lose some strength.

Xiao Chu knelt on the edge of the cliff, wanting to help. President Li

Get lost!

Li Tingshens voice was tense, and one could easily tell that his entire body was tense.

He would never allow himself to lose any energy at this time.

Xiao Chu nodded and stood up.

The director was so anxious that he didnt know what to do. The wires had been removed and it was useless. He instructed his men to help, but Xiao Chu stopped him.

I dont need your help.

a.s.sistant Xiao, its a matter of life and death.

Xiao Chu shook her head and watched as Li Tingshen lifted Ye Qingqiu bit by bit.

No, if it was anyone else today, it might be a matter of life and death, but shes Miss Ye.

Because it was Miss Ye, CEO Li would never let anything happen to her.

It was a matter of life and death.

Because it was Ye Qingqiu, to Li Tingshen, there was only survival and no death.

He didnt trust anyone to be like him. He only wanted her to live.

The surroundings were in chaos, but Liang Xuer, who was separated by the crowd, still heard Xiao Chus words.

It wasnt until Li Tingshen pulled Ye Qingqius upper body up to ensure her safety that Xiao Chu went forward to grab Ye Qingqius arm and pulled her up completely.

Although the sharp edges of the cliff had been deliberately smoothed out, it was inevitable that she would be scratched when she fell and pulled up.

Ye Qingqiu felt pain everywhere in her body, but the fear of almost falling had yet to dissipate.

She slumped to the ground, her hands trembling as she clutched her chest. Her mind was blank.

Li Tingshens hand was still grabbing Ye Qingqiu. Are you hurt anywhere?

Ye Qingqiu was still in a daze.

Speak!

A low voice mixed with temper snapped Ye Qingqiu back to reality. She lowered her head to look at her wrist that was still covered in blood and shook her head with a pale face.

Li Tingshen didnt believe her. He lifted her sunscreen and saw a few traces of blood on her fair and slender arm. He pursed his lips and stood up.

Xiao Chu, drive.

Yes!

Xiao Chu responded and Li Tingshen bent down to carry her again.

The crowd made way in surprise.

The director glanced at Liang Xuer, who had fallen to the ground with a pale face. He went forward and said, CEO Li, this scene

Continue!

Carrying Ye Qingqiu, he quickened his pace and said, We have to finish filming this scene today. I dont want to return to this place.

Yes, yes, yes!

Everyone knew what was going on.

He didnt want that?

How many times could he come to the set?

She probably didnt want Pei Yaochis manager to be in such a sad place again.

The director nodded repeatedly.

It wasnt until Li Tingshen carried Ye Qingqiu into the car that Liang Xuer was helped up by her a.s.sistants.

Seeing the wounds on Liang Xuers body, the two a.s.sistants were so frightened that they didnt dare to speak.

Seeing Li Tingshens car leave, the director heaved a sigh of relief.

After dispersing the crowd, they called for the cameras.

The a.s.sistants tone was not as harsh as before, but he still said, Director, Xuers condition is worse than before. Im afraid she cant film

Didnt you hear what CEO Li said? We have to finish filming today! Dont you understand?

Liang Xuer was still in a daze, as though she had lost a few souls.

Upon hearing the directors words, she finally blinked.

What do you mean?

Li Tingshen didnt see that she was injured. He didnt know that all he could see was Ye Qingqiu.

Or could it be that even if she was injured, it didnt matter? Let alone for Ye Qingqiu, even if she was seriously injured, she had to endure it?

Was that it?

Or had she misunderstood something?
