Chapter 277 - He Had Become Her Scapegoat
Huang Yanran did not wait for her assistant to finish and asked eagerly, “How is that little bitch? Is she already disfigured? Haha! Did she look horrible?”
He Liang replied, “No. Jing Xi is fine. The one who’s disfigured is Xiao Jia. Xiao Jia also inhaled the powder and was poisoned. He is now in the hospital.”
Huang Yanran was incredulous. “What? How did that happen?”
“I’m not sure about the specifics. It seems that at the time of the shoot, there was a problem with the props.”
“Okay, I understand now. Go to the hospital and find a way to inquire about Xiao Jia’s condition. Remember, you must not let Xiao Jia speak the truth. Also, don’t let anyone suspect that we’re responsible for it,” Huang Yanran commanded.
“Okay, understood.”
After hanging up the call, Huang Yanran furrowed her brow and flung the facial mask from her hand angrily.
Jing Xi was unbelievably lucky. Jia Qing has become her scapegoat.
That Jia Qing is also really something. He couldn’t even settle such a small matter properly. What a useless person!
Huang Yanran was beginning to feel uneasy. What if the production crew had investigated and found that she was the culprit?
…
It was a new day. The sun broke through the dawn sky and shone on the flowerbed outside the villa.
The flowers were flourishing. The purple lavenders had blossomed and the chamomile plant had also sprouted. The young and tender buds gave a feeling of vitality and hope.
Huo Yunshen had woken early in the morning. He had plucked a large bunch of lavender plants and set them in a glass vase in the dining room.
The flower language of lavender is “waiting for love.” Just like him…he was waiting for love, too.
An exquisitely prepared breakfast was served on the table. The doorbell rang. Huo Yunshen knew it must be Xu Xiyan and Ying Bao.
As soon he went out to greet them and opened the door, Ying Bao bounded into the house cheerfully. Xu Xiyan was at the door changing her shoes.
Ying Bao greeted him happily as soon as she saw him, “Mornin’, Uncle Dimples!”
“Morning, Cherry.”
The little girl wore a small apple green skirt and her hair was tied into two braids. Her little arms swung about as she walked and she looked very adorable.
“Come on, Cherry. Let’s have breakfast.” Huo Yunshen took the little girl’s hand and led her to the dining room.
Xu Xiyan came behind him and saw the breakfast on the table. “Mr. Huo, didn’t I tell you not to do any chores? Why did you make breakfast?”
“Because Cherry likes my breakfast. When Cherry is full, then she’ll have the strength to do livestreams!”
If Huo Yunshen had not reminded her, Xu Xiyan would have forgotten that this was the day that Ying Bao would be going live.
She also remembered that Fang Xiaocheng had gone on a trip with Wang Dazhi and was not able to accompany Ying Bao in her live stream. It seemed that she had to join her in person today.
After Huo Yunshen had placed Ying Bao on her chair, he moved over to his place and gestured for Xu Xiyan to sit down, too.
The breakfast he made was rich and delicious. Xu Xiyan and the child were especially happy and satisfied as they ate.
After breakfast, Huo Yunshen went to work. Xu Xiyan was not required for any shooting today, so she took Ying Bao back to the Jing family house.
Ying Bao remembered that she had to do a livestream today. She asked worriedly, “What am I going to do? Auntie Orange isn’t here. How is Baby going to do the livestream?”
Xu Xiyan patted the little girl’s head. “Silly girl, don’t you have a super mommy? Xi Baby will accompany you for your live stream today.”
“Yaaay!” The little girl was instantly excited. She clapped her hands and said, “Then let’s get started! Xi Baby, go change into your rabbit suit. Baby will wait for you.”
“Okay.”
Xu Xiyan went off to change into a pink rabbit suit and became a big and cute rabbit, then accompanied her daughter for her livestream.
In the livestream, a cute little girl and a pink Rabbit Mommy appeared.
