Qiao Yiyi held her breath nervously after making the request, not daring to say another word.

The silence on the other end of the line was imposing and oppressing. She could hardly breathe now.

After a while, an almost aristocratic voice came through the line. The voice spoke unhurriedly and exuded a sort of demonic charm that was evident, despite the fact that he said only two words, “I’m busy.”

Qiao Yiyi panicked, she sounded as though she was ready to cry with desperation, “Second Brother, I was bullied again today. Someone hit me and everyone in the filming crew laughed at me. When will you have some time?”

The voice on the other end gave a sneer and said, “I never have any time.”

Qiao Yiyi bit her lip, knowing that he was going to disconnect the line any time now.

Knowing how he was, she realized that if he hung up and she tried to call again, it would anger him for sure.

In her panic, she quickly replied, “Second Brother, what if I told you that Qiao Lian is at the filming location?”

The moment she broke the news, she heard a sudden eagerness in his voice—a tension that could just barely be detected—as he asked, “What did you say?”

His tone told her that she had guessed right and she quickly reassured him, “It’s true! She’s an extra on the set! She seems to be in dire straits, but I’m not sure how long she’ll be around for. When will you have time to come over here, Second Brother?”

He was silent for a while and then, without another word, the line was disconnected as he firmly hung up.

In a way, Qiao Yiyi felt a sudden sense of relief.

But at once, she clenched her fists tightly.

She did not understand why everyone would get all excited and worked up whenever it came to Qiao Lian.

Surely she, Qiao Yiyi, didn’t pale in any way when compared with Qiao Lian?

She took a deep breath, turned and called her young assistant. Then, she whispered a few things into the assistant’s ear.

The young assistant nodded and ran away to look for the stage supervisor.

When he found him, the young assistant pulled him aside, saying, “The extras you hired today... pay them and let them go. Don’t let them stay on with the filming set any longer.”

The stage supervisor pondered for a moment after this suggestion was made.

He had found two pretty extras to match Best Actor Shen for the scene. However, having caused a din today, he felt bad for the extras.

Hence, he nodded in agreement.

The stage supervisor proceeded to search for the two extras in the filming set.

But... eh... where were they?

That’s right, since the filming had been called off, they had completely vanished.

Where was he going to find them within the huge set?

Tugged by Shen Liangchuan and tottering behind him, she was led to his lounge.

Once they got there, Shen Liangchuan wordlessly took out his own first-aid kit and some ice from the fridge. He wrapped the ice in a towel and started to apply it on her face.

Looking at his rather gloomy expression, Qiao Lian bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before speaking. “Hey, aren’t you happy that I’m here?”

Shen Liangchuan glared at her and ignored her question. “Why didn’t you just call me?”

What was this nonsense about being an extra?

Couldn’t she have just given him a call and he would have gotten her in?

And now she had to suffer this plight!

Qiao Lian twitched her lips. “You’ve been avoiding me. Would it have worked if I called you?”

Shen Liangchuan deftly switched the topic and asked, “Why did you come here?”

Qiao Lian glared at him.

In the past, he had been the high and mighty Shen Liangchuan and she had just been a junior reporter.

When she was in his presence, she had used to feel terrified.

But after she knew that he was Zi Chuan, all of a sudden, she was no longer afraid of him.
