"Luo Sheng, do you still remember me? Luo Sheng … "
Lying in bed, Luo Sheng looked at Long Jie weakly and replied in a raspy voice, "Long Jie!"
"Thank the Heavens!" As soon as Long Jie heard that Luo Sheng's intelligence was normal, she immediately clasped her hands together. "Do you know how scary you are?"
Luo Sheng sat numbly in bed. He was confused about his injury and everything that had happened. He tried his best to remember what happened the night before, but apart from the blinding lights, he couldn't remember anything else.
"Am I injured?"
"Yes, you're seriously injured," Long Jie nodded. "But, you don't need to worry. Your doctor is very skilled. He will definitely be able to cure you."
Luo Sheng touched his head and felt a thick layer of bandage.
Moreover, his right eye was also covered.
"But, I'm injured. What should I do with the crew?" Luo Sheng asked anxiously. 'Red Flame' wasn't easy for him to secure. He couldn't lose it just because he was injured. He didn't want to miss out on an opportunity like this.
But, Long Jie patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "Don't worry, Tangning will think of a way to protect everything that belongs to you."
Luo Sheng was temporarily comforted. But, when Tangning and the others arrived at the hospital, the information that Luo Sheng gave them was roughly the same as what he had seen on the surveillance cameras.
He didn't offend anyone and he didn't make arrangements with anyone beforehand. He was simply attacked on his way to meet with an investor.
"From the looks of it, this matter is a little tricky," Lin Qian said.
"Compared to finding out the truth, comforting Luo Sheng and restoring his confidence is more important," Tangning said as she glanced at Lin Qian. Tangning glanced at Lin Qian and instructed, "Continue to cooperate with the police. Let me know if you find anything new."
"OK," Lin Qian nodded.
Tangning watched as Luo Sheng lay down in bed. During an artist's most important period of development, an accident was the scariest thing to happen. After all, it could directly destroy Luo Sheng's path to stardom. But, she wasn't going to give up on her artist so easily. Especially when someone was trying to harm him!
Tangning did not tell Luo Sheng about the replacement of 'Red Flame' because he didn't need to know about it.
It didn't matter if he lost Red Flame, he still had other resources.
Not long after, Tangning received a phone call from Old Luo stating that he was willing to let Luo Sheng play the male lead of 'Derivative'. This was to prove that he had no intention of harming Luo Sheng.
Or, perhaps, it was because of what Tangning had said.
Tangning did not tell Luo Sheng about this because she had other considerations.
The new male lead of 'Red Flame' was the younger brother of one of the investors. Nepotism was a common occurrence in the entertainment industry. But, if Tangning found out that this man's promotion had something to do with Luo Sheng's injury, she would not let the matter rest.
Since the lead role had already been cancelled, they might as well cancel the entire script.
…
Lin Qian continued to follow the police to find Luo Sheng's murderer. But, not only could they not find Luo Sheng's car, there was also no trace of the culprit. Lin Qian suddenly remembered that the police had previously mentioned that the video that Li Jin provided didn't seem to have come from his home. In that case, could she ask Li Jin what was going on?
To find out the truth, Lin Qian drove over to Li Jin's villa. But, after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no response. Eventually, one of Li Jin's neighbors said to Lin Qian, "Miss, stop knocking. I think Mr. Li has returned to the military base."
"Thank you," Lin Qian thanked, but she was a little discouraged. But, when she thought about how Xing Lan had Li Jin's contact details, she felt like an idiot.
So, she immediately returned home and asked Xing Lan for Li Jin's contact details.
"Huh? Are you interested in my cousin? "
"Stop talking nonsense. Your cousin is related to Luo Sheng's case."
"That's impossible. He's a soldier and a monk. He wouldn't care about worldly matters," Xing Lan immediately denied.
"I'll explain everything to you later. Can I call him at any time?"
"I'm not sure about that," Xing Lan shrugged. Although she had a cousin who was a military officer, she had never contacted him. She had only seen him a few times when she was young and remembered that he could freeze people. Apart from that, Xing Lan had no idea.
"Forget it, I'll try to contact him." After speaking, Lin Qian stared at the phone number in her hand in a daze.
After making up her mind for a long time, she finally called the number on the card. After quite some time, the person on the phone picked up. His voice was deep and pleasant, but it was cold, "Li Jin, who is this?"
"Errr … I'm the woman that disturbed you before. Do you remember? I asked you for the surveillance footage. "
"Huh?" Li Jin did not have much of a reaction. Instead, he responded coldly.
"The police said that the surveillance footage wasn't from your home. So, I wanted to ask if you have any other clues. The police haven't been able to find Luo Sheng's car, let alone the culprit."
After Lin Qian spoke for a long time, she realized that the phone was busy. Lin Qian was a little embarrassed, so she wanted to hang up. But, at this time, Li Jin said, "I was busy just now. Can you say that again?"
Lin Qian repeated herself. She had already given up on Li Jin. But, to her surprise, Li Jin said, "I have an hour of free time tonight. We can talk outside. I don't like to discuss things over the phone."
"Oh, OK. What time? Where is a good place to meet? "
"Tell me your address and I'll come pick you up," Li Jin said in a domineering manner.
Fine, the man was a soldier and his job was to protect the country, so Lin Qian did not feel the need to argue with him. So, she gave him Xing Lan's address. At this time, Xing Lan slowly said to Lin Qian, "Actually … my cousin has probably seen your photo before because I gave it to him."
Lin Qian: "…"
…
In reality, the reason why Old Luo was willing to give the male lead of 'Derivative' to Luo Sheng was because of Tangning's words. The other reason was because he had an agreement with Mo Ting: he was qualified to invest in one of Hai Rui's most profitable films in the future.
Of course, he couldn't let Tangning know about this.
But, even if Mo Ting didn't make an appearance, Old Luo had already planned to give Tangning a call. But, he was more than happy to receive more benefits.
Tangning had indeed married a good man. This was something he couldn't deny.
When he thought about his wife and daughter, Old Luo naturally understood Mo Ting.
But, Luo Sheng did not know about this yet. Instead, he saw the news that 'Red Flame' had been replaced. So, he grabbed onto Long Jie and asked excitedly, "Long Jie, is this true?"
Long Jie noticed that he was holding onto his phone and knew that she couldn't hide the news from him. In the end, she nodded her head, "It's OK. You will soon receive better resources."
"Haha … based on my current state?" Luo Sheng felt a little inferior. "Long Jie, tell me the truth. Will my eyes never recover?"
