Chapter 176: Chapter 176: Let’s Have a ‘Happy’ Chat, Scumbags!

Seeing the situation, Xia Wenyan quickly patted his chest, “Leave this matter to me, and you just focus on filming your promotional video. I promise everything will be taken care of without any leaks!”

“Uh…”

Lu Zhaozhao slightly raised her eyebrows, somewhat skeptical of Xia Wenyan’s words.

It seemed that ever since she had known her fourth brother, the phrase “unreliable” had never left him.

She hesitated for a moment, as if suddenly thinking of something, and then turned to Xia Wenyan, “Can you keep what just happened a secret?”

“Keep a secret?” Xia Wenyan looked at Lu Zhaozhao, puzzled.

Could it be that she wanted to let those who hurt her off the hook?

However, Xia Wenyan soon understood and nodded, “Okay, I promise to keep it a secret.”

As Xia Wenyan said this, he cheekily winked at Lu Zhaozhao, “A secret just between the two of us~”

Lu Zhaozhao chuckled softly, speaking in a gentle tone, “Thank you for keeping it a secret for me. If you have any conditions, I can agree to them as well.”

Unexpectedly, Xia Wenyan shrugged indifferently, “It’s a small thing. I can keep many more secrets for you.”

Lu Zhaozhao looked at Xia Wenyan, surprised, “I thought you would take this chance to make me call you ‘big brother.'”

Unexpectedly, he didn’t ask for anything.

Xia Wenyan sighed lightly and gently rubbed Lu Zhaozhao’s head, “Silly girl, I sincerely want to be a good brother. How could I use such low methods on my own sister?”

“…”

Not being moved by this would indeed be fake.

Lu Zhaozhao opened her mouth, wanting to call him “big brother,” but the words still stuck in her throat and didn’t come out.

Xia Wenyan didn’t notice Lu Zhaozhao’s abnormality. Instead, he waved at the assistant and handed her a milk tea, “First have some milk tea to calm your nerves. Xiao Li will take you to my private resting room at the film base later. Leave everything here to me.”

“Okay.” Lu Zhaozhao nodded and then followed Xia Wenyan’s assistant away.

When there was no one else around, Xia Wenyan slowly walked over to a machine, turned off the camera, and then took the memory card out and slipped it into his pocket.

Looking at the few hooligans slowly regaining consciousness on the ground, Xia Wenyan flexed his wrist and spoke in a cold voice, “Let’s have a ‘pleasant’ chat, you scumbags!”

…

By the time filming was supposed to start in the afternoon, Xia Wenjin, Lin Xing, and Zhang Tao had all arrived at the set.

But Lu Zhaozhao was nowhere to be seen.

“Could Lu have gotten lost?” Lin Xing couldn’t help but worry. When they had left at noon, only Lu Zhaozhao was here.

She might not be familiar with the place, perhaps she got lost.

Zhang Tao’s brow also furrowed, “The film base is so big, it’s not easy to find her. We were busy filming in the morning and didn’t exchange contact information. Now we can only wait for the director…”

Xia Wenjin was originally worried because she hadn’t been able to contact Song Keren at noon, thinking something had gone wrong with the plan, but now with Lu Zhaozhao’s absence, she was somewhat excited.

It seemed that the people they had brought in must have succeeded, otherwise why would Lu Zhaozhao disappear?

“Does anyone here know Lu Zhaozhao well? Call her! She’s not replying to texts or answering calls, what’s going on? Are we still filming or not?” The director came over in a rage, blurting out.

Usually, it was the actors who waited for him, not the other way around.

Let alone a temporary actress like Lu Zhaozhao.

Xia Wenjin chuckled softly, “Director, don’t be angry. Maybe Zhaozhao ran into some trouble and couldn’t make it, that might be why.”

She spoke gently, soothing the director, and deliberately spoke up for Lu Zhaozhao, surprising the two men present.

Is this still Xia Wenjin who used to stand off against Lu Zhaozhao?

Could she have taken the wrong medication?

Suddenly, a piercing scream came from afar.

“Xia Wenjin!!!”

Almost everyone’s gaze turned towards the distance.

A woman, ragged and disheveled, fiercely lunged at Xia Wenjin, clawing at her viciously.

Xia Wenjin’s hair was grabbed, and only then did she see clearly that the woman attacking her was Song Keren.

Her brows furrowed instantly, “Song Keren, what are you doing? Let go of me now!”

Why would Song Keren listen?

She had just been humiliated and photographed in that state!

Now, she wished she could kill Xia Wenjin and die along with her.

“Let you go? In your dreams! I want you dead today!!!”

As she spoke, she began to lash out crazily at Xia Wenjin once again.

Those nearby were shocked, but they soon intervened and attempted to pull them apart.

Fortunately, both being women, it wasn’t too difficult to separate them.

But by then, Xia Wenjin’s clothes had been torn, a good amount of her hair had been pulled out, and her face was scratched with several bloody marks by the frantic Song Keren.

If it hadn’t been for her protecting her own face, she would probably have been disfigured by now.

“Is there a new scene being shot?” Lu Zhaozhao’s calm voice suddenly pierced through the noisy filming location. “I went to lunch with my brother and brought back some milk tea for everyone.”

Almost in unison, everyone turned to look towards Lu Zhaozhao.

Song Keren seemed like she had been triggered by something, suddenly struggling fiercely again, trying to lunge at Lu Zhaozhao.

But those restraining her were too strong, so she didn’t get the chance to break free.

“Lu Zhaozhao! It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you… mmm mmm mmm!” She wanted to say more, but Xia Wenjin quickly covered her mouth.

“Keren, even if you don’t like Zhaozhao, that’s no way to talk…”

“…”

This only made everyone on the scene even more puzzled.

Lu Zhaozhao had thought it would take Xia Wenyan some time to find the mastermind behind this.

Looking at Song Keren now, her Fourth Brother was quite capable, having found the manipulator in such a short time.

And had made her reap what she sowed.

A chill flickered through her eyes as she glanced at the two of them.

However, it seemed that the mastermind behind all this was not just one person.

She feigned confusion as she looked at Xia Wenjin and Song Keren and said, “What happened to you two? Did you encounter some trouble? I see Song Keren looks unwell, is she alright?”

Xia Wenjin shook her head repeatedly, “No, nothing’s… ah!”

Before she could finish speaking, Song Keren had bitten her fiercely on the hand.

Freed from restraint, Song Keren shouted directly at Lu Zhaozhao, “Why are you so lucky, you bitch?! Why didn’t they find you?! Why was it me! Do you know what they did to me?!”
