"Of course not. You have the right to eat whatever you want, but Miss Chen, can you tell me why you suddenly like to eat chicken blood salad?" Gu Ning asked.
Hearing this, a guilty look flashed across the actress's face. Then, she pretended to be calm and said, "I just went out to eat with my friends and happened to order this dish. They said it has the effect of beautifying and nourishing one's skin. I was forced to try it, and then I thought it was pretty good, so I started to like it."
Although she said that perfunctorily to fool Gu Ning, she didn't lie about the fact that it had the effect of beautifying one's skin.
Ever since she continuously ate the cold chicken blood, her skin condition had indeed improved a lot. Now, she was addicted to cold chicken blood.
"Miss Chen, although I have nothing to do with what you've done, you're a member of my crew now. For the sake of my crew's reputation, I have to deal with it," Gu Ning said.
Hearing Gu Ning's words, the actress was displeased. She didn't think that Gu Ning had found out anything, but she thought that Gu Ning thought that her eating chicken blood salad was harmful to the crew, so she was displeased. "Chairman Gu, don't I have the right to eat whatever I want?"
"Miss Chen, it has nothing to do with what you've eaten. Do you want to hide the truth from me, or do you really know nothing about it?" Gu Ning stared at the actress with her sharp eyes, like she could see through everything.
Hearing that, the actress was scared and avoided Gu Ning's eyes at once.
No way! Did Gu Ning really find out something?
"I don't know what you're talking about." The actress pretended that she didn't know anything. No matter what Gu Ning knew, she couldn't admit it now.
The actress's reaction proved that it wasn't that she didn't understand, but that she was deliberately hiding it. Or perhaps, she didn't know everything, so she didn't think much of it.
"Since you don't want to admit it, I'll be frank with you. Who gave you the black jade pendant? Who told you to eat raw chicken blood? You don't like to eat raw chicken blood now, but you are addicted to it. As long as you don't eat raw chicken blood for a day, you will feel uncomfortable, right? "Gu Ning asked.
Hearing this, the actress trembled and subconsciously covered the black jade pendant in front of her chest. She looked down and then looked at Gu Ning in disbelief.
How did she know that he had the black jade pendant? My clothes are clearly covered, so they can't see it at all …
By the time the actress realized that she had lost her composure, it was already too late to hide it.
The actress wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say.
"Are you willing to sacrifice the rest of your life for a few years of youth and beauty?" Gu Ning looked at her with a faint smile and asked.
"No," the actress said without thinking. She wanted to be young and beautiful, but she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in exchange for it.
"No? But that's exactly what you're doing now, "Gu Ning said.
"What?" Hearing that, the actress rounded her eyes in fear. She didn't think that Gu Ning was talking nonsense, because she knew that what she was doing now was indeed strange, but she didn't know that it was as strange as Gu Ning said.
"It's fine for you to eat raw chicken blood, because it's just a common dish, but the black jade pendant you have is the key to the problem. This black jade pendant is an evil item, and the raw chicken blood you eat doesn't go into your stomach, but is absorbed by this black jade. This black jade pendant can make you young and beautiful for a short period of time, but it can only last for a few years. If it's short, you'll die within a year or so, "Gu Ning said. Although she didn't have the right to interfere with the actress's choice, it happened in her crew, so she had to do something about it.
Either the actress would let her deal with it and continue to act, or she would directly leave and replace her with another actress.
Hearing that, the actress felt weak all over. If that was the case, she didn't want to wear this black jade pendant anymore.
Therefore, the actress took off the black jade pendant at once and threw it on the ground. She stared at the black jade pendant like it was the plague, and was afraid to approach it.
"Are, are you telling the truth?" The actress asked Gu Ning after the jade pendant was thrown away. Although she didn't know whether Gu Ning was telling the truth, she was indeed scared.
"Of course it's true. Don't ask me how I know it. There are many things in this world that ordinary people think are impossible, and can't be explained by science. As you know, you've experienced it before. If you wear this black jade pendant and drink raw chicken blood, you'll become young and beautiful, "Gu Ning said.
She knew and had experienced that wearing this black jade pendant and drinking raw chicken blood could make her young and beautiful. It was something that couldn't be explained by science.
She chose to believe Gu Ning instead of the person who gave her this black jade pendant, because she became gloomy and bad-tempered after putting it on. Even if she was angry before, she wouldn't show it on her face easily, but now she couldn't hide it at all.
Sometimes when she looked in the mirror, she felt her eyes were cold, and sometimes she was scared.
In addition, she had nightmares from time to time these days. She always dreamed that she was chased by monsters and ghosts, and she ran away as fast as she could. It was torture!
However, for the sake of her young and beautiful appearance, she endured it.
However, after hearing what Gu Ning said, she couldn't stand it anymore.
"Can I throw this black jade pendant away and stop eating raw chicken blood? Will I be fine?" the actress asked with expectation. She hoped that Gu Ning could help her.
"No, you have to give this black jade pendant back to the person who gave it to you," Gu Ning said. In fact, it wasn't necessary. Gu Ning said that because she wanted to know who the person was.
It couldn't be an ordinary person, and Gu Ning guessed that the person was probably a member of the Evil Practice.
"B-but, what if he doesn't want it?" the actress asked with embarrassment. The person was so evil that she didn't dare to see him again.
"If you want to beg me, I can help you, but you have to take me to see him. If you don't need my help, it's up to you," Gu Ning said.
