Chapter 285 A Lucky Star! "Otherwise, I can't guarantee that all your expensive cameras, lighting, and glamorous costumes and props will leave unscathed."

Xia Zhining slightly raised her hand, pointing to the flock of birds circling in the air, her tone icy: "They've just had a good meal."

As if to confirm Xia Zhining's words, as soon as she finished speaking, a gray sparrow, due to excessive tension, dropped a puddle of thin white bird droppings precisely onto the shiny head of the most arrogant bodyguard.

Time seemed to freeze for a second.

The little sparrow, startled, fluttered its wings and hid behind the crow owner, timidly explaining, "B-Boss... I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself..."

The bodyguard felt the warm, sticky sensation on his head, his face instantly turning ashen, his eyes widening in anger, just as he was about to explode—

"Lie—!"

Golden Eagle Hunter let out a long cry that pierced the clouds and split rocks. Its huge wings suddenly spread out, blotting out the sun. Its sharp eyes, like tangible blades, locked onto the bodyguard!

It crouched slightly, assuming a posture ready to dive and attack at any moment!

All the bodyguard's anger was instantly extinguished by the deathly gaze from the overlord of the sky. He froze on the spot, cold sweat pouring down his face, not daring to move.

"Retreat! Retreat now!!"

The director of "Journey to the Desert" was terrified, his voice distorted. He no longer cared about the dignity of a large film crew and shouted hoarsely at his subordinates, "Move everything out! Quickly! Clear the space!"

In an instant, the crew members, who had been so arrogant just moments before, were like stray dogs, frantically packing up their expensive equipment in a chaotic and disorganized manner.

They dared not look at Xia Zhining and the "air force" behind her again, and only wanted to escape this terrible place that had humiliated them as soon as possible.

Just as the crew of "Journey to the Desert" was frantically loading equipment onto the truck, preparing to make a quick getaway—

"etc!"

He Xi rushed forward and blocked the convoy with her arms outstretched.

She pointed to the aluminum alloy tracks that had been dismantled and carelessly discarded in the sand, her voice trembling with anger:

"Give us back the filming tracks! These are the crew's most important assets, and you've destroyed them!"

Xia Zhining stepped forward and stood beside He Xi, her voice clear and firm: "And there's the issue of lost wages. You illegally occupied the venue for a full six hours, severely impacting our filming schedule. You must bear this loss!"

At this moment, the director of "Journey to the Desert" saw that most of the expensive equipment had been loaded into the vehicle and covered with dust cloths, and several big stars had also climbed into the van. Thinking that he had no more leverage, he immediately resumed his arrogant attitude.

He straightened his collar and walked arrogantly up to the two of them:

"Hmph, giving you space is already giving you plenty of face! Don't push your luck!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the window of the van rolled down, and the male lead, who had just been terrified by the Pallas's rabbit, poked his head out, preemptively accusing the villain:

"You want compensation from us? What about our compensation for emotional distress?! Those bastards almost scared me to death! Do you know how much I get paid per day? You delayed my filming, can you afford to compensate me?!"

Just then, the female lead, who had been hiding in the car, suddenly jumped out of the car with her phone in hand.

Her screen displayed Xia Zhining's profile page. As if she had seized upon some earth-shattering incriminating evidence, she pointed at Xia Zhining and shouted shrilly:
