Chapter 325 - 325 No Longer a Fight Scene in Bed
Lu Ailian was about to stop them, but the ambulance had arrived. She had to take care of her son first.
She hurriedly chased them to the stairs and shouted upstairs, “don’t mess around! How am I going to explain to her family if something happens to her?”
Pei Huai said as he passed by her, “I’ll take full responsibility if anything happens.”
!!
Lu Ailian didn’t know what to say for a moment. She felt that the man in front of her looked familiar and he didn’t look like an ordinary man.
Pei Huai did not stay there. He walked upstairs and the paramedics came in with a stretcher at the same time.
In Xu Ni’s room, Qin Bingjie was lying face down on her bed.
A silver needle was inserted into her head, and she became quiet. Her eyes were closed, and her breathing was stable.
Xu Ni looked at the silver needle that was aimed directly at the top of her head, “…”
She heard that Su Ji could prescribe medicine, but this was the first time she saw her use other instruments…
After a long while, she carefully nudged Qin Bingjie, “mom?”
Seeing that she didn’t respond, she used the back of his index finger to test her breath.
Su Ji chuckled, “don’t worry, she’s just unconscious.”
Xu Ni sighed, “you’re amazing. You even know acupuncture.”
The wound on her face had completely scabbed and was about to fall off. It did not look as shocking as the first day. She applied the ointment she had bought from Su Ji every day. She was told that when they started filming again, the marks would not be visible after makeup was applied.
Pei Huai stood at the side, looking at some documents on his phone. Occasionally, he would glance at Qin Bingjie.
He would feel more at ease if he stayed here. However, in a few minutes Su Ji asked all the male servants to leave. She looked at him and said, “you too.”
Pei Huai replied, “I can help you if I stay here.”
Su Ji pointed at Qin Bingjie, “then help me lift her clothes up. I am going to perform cupping therapy on her.”
“…”
Pei Huai was silent for two seconds before leaving the room, “call me if you need anything.”
Su Ji gave Xu Ni a look, and Xu Ni stepped forward to help.
She applied three needles on each of her shoulders and the glass jars on her back.
Xu Ni watched her light an alcohol-soaked cotton ball and put it into the glass jar skillfully. After a moment, a negative pressure formed, and the glass jars on Qin Bingjie’s back quickly attached to her skin. Her skin was only slightly red, and there was no discomfort on her face.
Su Ji replied, “15 minutes.”
Xu Ni started the timer on her phone, while Su Ji seamlessly moved on to the next step.
She started to scrape Qin Bingjie’s fingers with the Gua Sha tool.
Su Ji did not look up. She focused her attention on Qin Bingjie’s hand skillfully. “Don’t rush this. Let’s take it step by step. I will adjust the treatment according to her condition and prescribe medicine for her later.”
Xu Ni was very grateful, “if you need my help in the future, please let me know.”
Su Ji smiled, “make sure your grandma doesn’t go back on her words.”
In the evening, Su Ji and the others were leaving, and Lu Ailian pretended to invite them to stay for dinner.
Of course, Pei Huai refused.
When Su Ji was about to leave, Lu Ailian called her aside and said, “you have. good relationship with Xu Ni. Surely you don’t want outsiders to gossip about his mother…”
Su Ji sneered, “don’t worry, it’s a secret.”
Lu Ailian’s smile became more relaxed. She glanced at Pei Huai and then back to her, “your boyfriend?”
“Uh-huh.”
“What a handsome man, I heard from your grandmother that your boyfriend seems to be…quite good?”
Zhang Guihua had wanted to show off how good her granddaughter’s boyfriend was at the Calligraphy Association several times, but Lu Ailian never gave her the chance. Every time Zhang Guihua started, Lu Ailian would change the topic.
Now that Su Ji was so popular on the internet, there was no news at all about who her boyfriend was.
Anyone with a brain could guess that Zhang Guihua must be bragging. If her boyfriend was really that good, wouldn’t it have been announced on the internet long ago?
Was there a need to hide it?
Lu Ailian thought so, but she was a little curious.
She didn’t know why, but looking at him in the eye made her heart throb.
Lu Ailian sized up Pei Huai’s clothes of an unknown brand, “what does your boyfriend do for a living?”
Su Ji recalled his daily schedule of going to the office, meeting, socializing, and signing contracts, “he’s an office worker.”
Lu Ailian had a mocking look on her face, “public servant?”
Su Ji replied, “private.”
Lu Ailian almost couldn’t hold back her laughter. Private companies lay off workers three times a year, what future could he have?
**
Chinese New Year holiday wasn’t over yet, and the Chinese were still immersed in the joy of the new year, but the crew of The Billion Stars was ready to resume work.
On the fifth day of the new year, Han Junlei and Huang Huayu called for a meeting with Su Ji and Si Jingchuan to discuss the plot of the last episode.
Huang Huayu came back from his hometown yesterday. Han Junlei did not return home at all. He was particularly dedicated to his work.
In the meeting room, Fu Xiaofeng sat beside Si Jingchuan and Su Ji. Pei Huai was sitting there.
Han Junlei and Huang Huayu planned to start the meeting as soon as they entered the room. However, they suddenly saw CEO Pei, and question marks appeared in their minds at the same time.
...
?
“Her manager hasn’t been feeling well recently. I’ll take her place for two days.”
This time, there was another question mark above their heads.
??
They knew that Su Ji’s manager was Pei Xi.
But even if she was feeling unwell, she shouldn’t have to trouble CEO Pei to take care of her, right?
Was it because he was more free during the new year? So it was convenient?
Han Junlei and Huang Huayu looked at each other. Then, they looked at Su Ji and CEO Pei. They suddenly remembered the time when Su Ji was filming a fight scene in bed. It was a coincidence that CEO Pei happened to visit her at the set. They also remembered the various luxury cars that picked Su Ji up…
It was as if an electric current had suddenly passed through their minds.
The two men seemed to have realized something.
When the filming of the movie was about to end, he finally understood the signs …
...
However, if that was the case, there was a more troublesome matter.
Huang Huayu pushed the script in his hand to Han Junlei and motioned for him to continue.
In the last episode, in order to make up for the negative impact caused by Zhou Xuefang, Han Junlei had changed the script to show more romantic scenes between Gu Shen and Bai Yueguang.
This was no longer a fight scene in bed…
Han Junlei looked at CEO Pei, feeling a little uncertain. However, he was a man of steel. He took a deep breath and slammed the script on the table.
Everyone looked at it.
