After Luo Sheng got injured, the crew of 'Red Flame' immediately changed their male lead and cancelled their contract with him. On the surface, this didn't seem wrong. After all, the crew had such a high budget, so they couldn't afford to wait for someone who might not even return.
But, when it came to Tangning, even if you didn't do anything wrong, you couldn't leave so easily.
If you wanted to cancel your contract, it was fine. But, if you abandoned the male lead in less than a day, it was inevitable that people would accuse you of hitting someone when they were down.
Naturally, this caused the audience to feel disgusted. After all, the public had always liked to side with the weak. Especially when Luo Sheng was in such a pitiful state.
Tangning took the opportunity to hold a press conference to announce Luo Sheng's current situation to the public. She also expressed that Superstar Media had no intention of giving up on Luo Sheng. In other words, Tangning was implying that they could bully Luo Sheng as much as they wanted, but they had to remember one thing.
If Tangning could turn Luo Sheng's life around once, she could turn him around again.
But, when that time comes, don't blame them for turning their backs on you.
The reporters were most concerned about the identity of Luo Sheng's culprit. Of course, Tangning knew that this was the best way to help Luo Sheng maintain his popularity. So, during the press conference, she did not answer them.
Lin Qian was currently cooperating with the police and the residents of the villa estate to confirm the identity of the culprit.
One of them ended up knocking on a military family's door.
As soon as the man saw Lin Qian, he was a little surprised. He didn't seem unfamiliar to her, but, at that moment, Lin Qian's first impression was that he was tall!
His eyes were calm and composed, which complemented his chiseled face. It was a perfect match for the military uniform he was wearing.
"Sir, can I ask you a question?"
"I just returned from the army, so I don't know anything," the man replied stiffly.
"I simply want to see the surveillance footage on the outermost wall of your house. Is that okay?"
After hearing Lin Qian's request, the man finally looked at her with a 'you're seeking death' expression, "This is confidential information, so I can't provide it to you. Sorry."
Lin Qian: "…"
"Miss Lin, let us talk to him." As soon as the police saw Lin Qian's expression, they immediately stepped forward. But, like before, they couldn't communicate. After all, all the man had to do was flash his ID and they wouldn't be able to do anything.
Helplessly, the police had no choice but to persuade Lin Qian to leave, "Miss Lin, please leave. This is indeed confidential information."
"What secret? I'm just taking a look. I'm not interested in his secrets." "I don't know who he is, but if he really filmed a crime, isn't it his duty as a citizen to cooperate with the police to solve the case?" Lin Qian said with a hint of anger.
"Uh …"
Luo Sheng still hadn't woken up. No one knew what he would look like when he woke up. But, the surveillance camera was their only lead, so Lin Qian didn't want to give up so easily. So, she went back and knocked on his door again.
The other party was obviously a little shocked. The questioning look in his eyes was also very obvious.
"I'm not asking that I can see it. I just hope that you can confirm whether your surveillance cameras have captured any important information. Is that okay?"
After a few seconds of silence, the man finally let go of her. "You can come in, but you'll have to bear the consequences."
Lin Qian did not believe that this man would do anything to her, so she followed him in.
The man admired Lin Qian's courage, but didn't really support her.
Entering a single man's home was a very dangerous thing to do.
But, he still helped Lin Qian confirm the surveillance footage. He then handed her a USB drive, "Here's what you want to see."
At this time, Lin Qian's eyes lit up.
"Thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, save it for next time."
At this time, Lin Qian had no idea what the man was talking about. Her attention was completely focused on the USB drive.
Afterwards, Lin Qian handed the USB drive to the police for them to confirm. Soon, the police came back with a result.
"This surveillance footage captured Luo Sheng hitting a pedestrian on the road and slamming on the brakes. He then got out of his car, but before he could confirm what he had hit, he was attacked at close range. It's worth noting that the attacker drove away with Luo Sheng's car. "
"Is there any way to identify the culprit?" Lin Qian asked.
"The rain is too heavy and the car's headlights are too bright, so we have no way of identifying the culprit. But, we will continue to investigate the whereabouts of Luo Sheng's car. Of course, the best case scenario would be for Luo Sheng to wake up and provide us with more useful information."
"Plus, the strangest thing is that the footage captured from this angle shouldn't have been taken from the military family's villa."
As the man had only given them a snippet, the police had no way of confirming anything.
This was only natural. After all, the man had hacked into the surveillance footage in that area and found some useful information for Lin Qian.
However, Lin Qian had no idea.
But, in the end, no one knew whether the incident was targeted at Luo Sheng or Tangning.
Hopefully, the mystery would be solved as soon as possible.
Lin Qian was currently staying at Xing Lan's home. As she returned home that evening, she noticed Xing Lan holding onto a photo. So, she leaned in for a look, "Who is this?"
"My cousin," Xing Lan replied. "He's handsome, isn't he? He's the one I mentioned to introduce you to … "
Lin Qian found the man to be a little familiar. After looking at him for a while, she finally remembered. Wasn't this the man she had begged earlier in the day?
"Is this your cousin?"
"What's the problem?" Xing Lan asked. "In the past, we didn't keep in contact. But, recently, my uncles have gotten closer to me, so they've started to have some strange ideas. They say that I know a lot of people, so I can …"
In other words, they were asking her to introduce someone to someone.
"Does a man like him even need an introduction?"
"He's a cold-faced general. Girls are scared off by him. Who would want to be with him?" Xing Lan humphed. "Of course, you're different. You're a heroine."
"What's your name?"
"Li Jin. What's wrong? Are you interested?"
"No …" Lin Qian was currently troubled by Luo Sheng's matter.
"It's fine. Keep it as a souvenir." After speaking, Xing Lan placed the photo in Lin Qian's handbag.
…
That night, Lin Qian told Tangning about her findings and reminded her that this incident might be targeted at her.
Tangning understood, but she had always been able to face dirty tricks.
"Long Jie just gave me a phone call and said that Luo Sheng has woken up. I'm on my way to the hospital right now."
"He's woken up? Doesn't that mean I can ask him about the case? "Lin Qian asked.
That wasn't necessarily the case. After all, it was possible that Luo Sheng wouldn't recognize anyone for a while.
There were plenty of dirty tricks in the industry that were daring enough to take responsibility for. So, Tangning was in awe of the people behind this. But, she was extremely disgusted by this kind of deception.
Hopefully, Luo Sheng would put in more effort!
