Chapter 274 - Count Her Lucky
“Waste materials?” Gu Zhiqian suspiciously looked at the box and the people carrying it. For some reason, he felt that something wasn’t right. The four people were clearly shifty. “Open the box and let me see.”
The scarred guy’s eyes darkened dangerously, and the other three reached towards their belts, holding onto the weapons they had put on their waists.
“It’s really just waste in here, you couldn’t be possibly thinking that we’re stealing things from the set, right, Mr. Gu?” The scarred guy forced a smile.
“No, I was just curious.” Gu Zhiqian’s eyes narrowed as he stared at the scarred man, taking a step closer.
The scarred’s man face fell, but he spoke up confidently. “The prop team does all of our work properly, and we would never take advantage of the film crew. Since Mr. Gu wants to see, we should let him.”
The scarred man gave the men behind him a look, and the three of them nodded before putting the box down slowly, and pretending to open the box.
“Senior, weren’t you looking for Miss Ling?” Yi Tian opened her mouth again.
“Yeah.”
Yi Tian smiled, “I think I saw Ms Ling head towards the lounge.”
“Are you sure?” Gu Zhiqian asked.
Yi Tian shook her head “I’m not sure, I just saw a silhouette that looked like her.”
“If that’s so, then I’ll go look around near the lounge. I’ll help you with your scenes later.” Gu Zhiqian headed towards Ling Tianya’s lounge then.
Yi Tian stood still with pain flooding her eyes. She turned to look at the scarred man and his crew. “Aren’t you going to throw away that waste? What are you still doing here?”
The scarred man paused for a moment as he looked at Yi Tian thoughtfully. He smiled and said goodbye to Yi Tian, then they picked the box back up and left.
Yi Tian them and the box they were carrying, before turning away expressionlessly.
By the time Ling Tianya woke up, she found herself locked in a very small box. Her arms and legs were bound and her mouth was taped shut.
She had been getting some fresh air by the prop team’s garage dustbin. The filming was getting way too manic and she was getting dizzy just by explaining the characters to the actors, so she went out for some fresh air.
By the time she felt someone getting close to her, it was already too late, and a handkerchief with a sharp smell covered her nose and mouth. Even though she did her best to hold her breath, she had still breathed in a tiny amount. Not too long later, her entire body went limp.
She couldn’t make any words, but she could clearly hear what is going outside, even if the chemicals had drained her body of all energy.
Ling Tianya was locked in the box, and the rocky journey made her feel like her skeleton was going to fall out.
Just like that, an unknown amount of time passed before the bumps stopped, and the box she was in was put into the floor heavily. She heard a flurry of footsteps, then a man’s low murmuring.
Due to how low it was, Ling Tianya really couldn’t hear the voice clearly from in the box.
“Boss, do you think Yi Tian let us go on purpose? If not for her, we might have been in a lot of trouble,” The short man amongst the four asked the scarred man.
The scarred man gave the short one a look. Whether she did it on purpose or not, she got lucky today. We would’ve had to take care of her and Gu Zhiqain if not.”
The short man nodded. “Yi Tian’s a woman, so it would have been easy, but Gu Zhiqian’s trained in the martial arts and wouldn’t be that easy to deal with.”
The scarred man huffed, “You think the four of us can’t take care of an actor? We’re still members of the organization after all. If the higher-ups heard you say that, you would be in hot oil.”
The short man shrunk in on himself becoming very quiet.
