When they heard Lin Qian speak with such power, everyone was quite shocked.
Tangning's apparently quiet assistant had such a surprising side to her. Previously, she kept to herself and didn't say much like someone from outside the industry who wasn't accustomed to socializing. But, seeing the way she protected Tangning, the crew felt like they had to pay more attention to Tangning and be careful around her.
"There has to be a reason for an accident. You can't just scold a few words and let it pass. After all, this could have involved life and death."
"Assistant Lin is right. We need to investigate this matter in detail," the director agreed.
After all, if the person that got injured was an insignificant actor, things would have been a lot simpler. But, the person that was injured was Tangning. If Hai Rui planned to chase them for responsibilty, no one would be able to handle it.
"Assistant Lin, we won't be continuing with filming tonight. Please take Tangning to the hospital to check on her injuries."
Lin Qian nodded her head. As her eyes met with Tangning's, the two women understood each other.
For a matter like this to happen on set, apart from it being simply an accident, there was a 50% chance that someone deliberately caused it.
"Everyone can return home for now."
As Xu Xin looked at Tangning's actions and glanced down at the injuries on her arm, she was relatively calm. She knew that even if they investigated in detail, they would not be able to relate it back to her. She had done stuff like this enough to understand.
She hated arrogant people...
...
After returning to Tangning's room, Lin Qian quickly inspected Tangning's injuries. Seeing they were just slightly scratched, she let out a sigh of relief, "Lucky no bones or muscles were injured. I can still explain myself to President Mo."
"It was originally just a shallow well," Tangning sweated as she endured the pain from the antiseptic that Lin Qian was applying.
As Lin Qian helped Tangning with her wound, she asked, "Who do you think did it?"
"I'm not sure at the moment, but I will be more careful from now on," Tangning replied straightforwardly. As she looked down at Lin Qian's wet and dirty clothes, she immediately told her, "Go have a bath."
"OK. But, are we really not going to tell President Mo?" Lin Qian checked.
"It's really not necessary," Tangning shook her head. "The two kids at home will keep him busy enough..."
"In that case, call me if you need anything." After wrapping up Tangning's wounds, Lin Qian finally noticed that her clothes were a bit smelly.
As Tangning watched Lin Qian turn away, she couldn't help but say, "From now on, don't risk your life for me like that."
"I have always been such a serious person," Lin Qian said before she finally returned to her room, leaving Tangning in deep thought. She originally thought that no one would offend her after she received this most prestigious award. But she never expected that someone would still make a move on her.
It seemed, there really was no end to the entertainment industry.
Thinking of this, Tangning suddenly felt disgusted by the industry. She wanted so badly to have a clean working environment where no one schemed against her and dirty methods did not exist; a place where everyone simply lived to act and there weren't so many dramas.
But, just at this moment, at the end of the corridor on the same level of the same hotel...something dirty was happening.
"Why are you looking for me so late at night?" the director looked around after opening his door and seeing Xu Xin standing in the doorway, afraid that someone would misunderstand.
"Director...I know I made a lot of mistakes today, so I thought I'd come get some guidance from you."
