As for Tangning's safety, after Song Yanshu reported to Mo Ting, Mo Ting instructed Lu Che to personally handle the situation. If Bai Qiusheng dared to make a move, then he couldn't blame him for being ruthless.
...
That night, Gu Heng sneaked into Bai Qiusheng's room multiple times, but he was nowhere to be seen. His phone was turned off and his assistant was nowhere to be found.
So, she was almost certain that Bai Qiusheng was going to use the car race as an opportunity to force Tangning out of the cast.
If he succeeded, then it would be a fluke. But, what if Tangning already knew?
Gu Heng did not dare to think too deeply about this possibility. So, she spent the entire night in fear.
The next morning.
Tangning was at work when she ran into Gu Heng at the entrance of the hotel.
"Gu Jie?"
"Let me go to the set with you. Didn't we agree yesterday that I was going to give you a demonstration today?" Gu Heng asked cautiously.
Tangning smiled, "How could I trouble you?"
"It's fine. I'm simply doing this for the sake of presenting the film to the public," Gu Heng replied politely.
"OK then..."
The three of them walked to the set together. The crew had already contacted the traffic police and sealed off the roads. Everything was ready.
Afterwards, Gu Heng placed her gaze on Bai Qiusheng and scanned him up and down. But, Bai Qiusheng completely ignored her. It was obvious, he felt she was being too soft-hearted.
This was Tangning's first time filming a car racing scene. Although every car on the road followed the directions, the director still carefully explained to Tangning what to pay attention to and the details of the scene.
Bai Qiusheng stood in front of Tangning. At this moment, Tangning really wanted to know what he was thinking.
Had he never worried that she might lose her life because of the severity of the accident?
That's right, Tangning's car had been tampered with. Although the cameras did not capture Bai Qiusheng entering the set at 3am, he did not escape Lu Che's eyes.
Gu Heng stood in front of Tangning. She could sense that Tangning looked at Bai Qiusheng with disdain and mockery.
"Tangning, when the time comes, just focus on the camera and remember your route. Let's rehearse first," Wei An said.
Tangning glanced at Bai Qiusheng and nodded her head, "Director, can I try the car out first? I've never filmed such an intense scene before, so I'm a little nervous. "
"Of course..." Wei An nodded.
"Why don't you let me try it?" Gu Heng pushed aside the assistant director and walked over to the group. "I'm more experienced in this sort of thing, so Tangning will be able to learn faster."
Wei An looked at Gu Heng meaningfully and nodded his head, "OK, in that case, Gu Heng will demonstrate. Watch carefully."
Bai Qiusheng looked at Gu Heng in shock and anger. His eyes were obviously filled with anxiety. He never expected, Gu Heng would be so direct as to stop him from hurting Tangning. She was even willing to sacrifice her own life.
Actually, she was protecting him …
However, she did not feel regret.
"Tangning is a very professional actress. She doesn't need your demonstration." In front of everyone, Bai Qiusheng said in a deep voice, "Director, let me guide Tangning. After one run, she should be able to learn."
"That will save a lot of time..." Wei An nodded his head in agreement to Bai Qiusheng's suggestion.
Tangning looked at Bai Qiusheng as the corners of her lips curved upwards, "Director Wei, I think it would be better to let Bai Ge drive me once."
Hearing Tangning say this, Gu Heng's face finally turned pale...
This proved that Tangning knew everything that she and Bai Qiusheng had in mind, including Bai Qiusheng's plan to hurt her.
"Tangning is right. In that case, Qiusheng, I'll need you to give Tangning a demonstration," Wei An said as he pointed to a nearby car.
Although Bai Qiusheng had been tasked with this task, he remained calm as he walked straight over to his car and prepared to give Tangning a demonstration.
But... his car was out of gas.
As soon as the production crew saw this, they immediately apologized, "Sorry, I didn't check properly beforehand. I'll go refuel now."
"In that case, Qiusheng, you can drive Tangning's car," Wei An said to Bai Qiusheng.
Bai Qiusheng furrowed his brows and subconsciously looked at Tangning. However, Tangning's gaze contained a sense of interest and mockery...
Bai Qiusheng was a little surprised as he stepped out of the car. Just as he was about to open Tangning's door, Gu Heng blocked his way, "Let me drive..."
This time, Wei An was a little surprised, so he asked, "What's the point of fighting about something like this?"
Gu Heng turned her head and looked at Tangning, hoping she would be merciful.
However, Tangning laughed along with Wei An, "That's right, Gu Jie, you were supposed to be resting today, so you don't need to worry about my safety. Everyone is here. Although this is my first time filming a scene like this, I'm not afraid."
Gu Heng looked at Tangning. Seeing that Tangning was not backing down, she suddenly didn't know what to do.
"Qiusheng?" Wei An called out to Bai Qiusheng once again.
Bai Qiusheng pushed Gu Heng away, boarded the car and closed the door behind him...
Of course, he couldn't tell anyone that there was a problem with the car's brakes. So, he looked at Tangning through the rear-view mirror with a sense of danger.
He never imagined that he would fall into Tangning's hands; a woman's hands...
How did she find out? Or, could it be that Tangning had no idea and it was all a coincidence?
Gu Heng looked at Bai Qiusheng as he sat in the car. His attitude remained indecisive. Was she going to shoulder all the responsibility? If she revealed the truth, her life would be ruined...
But, Bai Qiusheng took the risk for her sake... She couldn't let Bai Qiusheng take the risk!
So, all she could do was beg Tangning...
In fact, she even pulled Tangning to one side, "Tangning, I don't want anything to happen to you or Qiusheng today. Because of this, can you please plead with the director..."
"Gu Jie also knows that there's a problem with the car?" Tangning probed.
"I simply don't want..." Gu Heng's expression was ugly. "He did it for my sake. I hope you can be merciful."
"Have you thought about what would have happened if I had sat in that car?" Tangning asked straightforwardly.
"Didn't I follow you here? Whether it was you or him, I would have stopped him... "
"If you can stop him this time, what about next time?" Tangning asked.
Gu Heng was left speechless by Tangning's question...
That's right, what about next time?
"Since he dared to gamble with my life, he should pay me back with his life. I, Tangning, have always been a person that returns a tooth for a tooth. Even if you kneel down and beg me, I will still let him drive that car. I want him to know that not everyone can make him do as he pleases. "
Because, for the sake of my husband, I need to live better than anyone else.
Of course, Tangning couldn't possibly say the second half of her sentence.
