At noon, Chen Xihua and her sister were about to leave Guangdong Province.
Their car drove along the national highway, where there were relatively few vehicles on the road.
"Big sister, it's too hot. Let's find a place to rest and catch our breath," Chen Xihua said, looking outside.
The road was lined with trees on both sides, and the sun was shining directly on them. The leaves were wilted and looked like they were about to steam. In the distance were rolling mountains.
“Okay, Xiao Wu, but there probably aren’t any service stations nearby. I’ll drive a little further.” Chen Chunhua slowed down and began to speak.
Yes, Chen Chunhua is now driving and dares to talk, but he drives slower.
After making a sharp turn, the road ahead becomes flat and straight.
The Chen sisters, Chen Xihua and Chen Xihua, could see the road conditions far ahead from the car.
About four or five hundred meters ahead, there were two black cars parked, and four people were surrounding a girl in her early twenties by the roadside.
"Xiao Wu, is there a robbery ahead? Should I turn around?" Chen Chunhua was a little nervous at first and slowed down the car. She wanted to ask Xiao Wu what she thought.
But she immediately realized that she also needed to make her own decisions and have her own ideas.
"Sister, they are blocking the road, but they seem to know each other. Let's drive over and see what happens." Chen Xihua looked at the four men and one woman in front of them, who seemed to be arguing, and someone was trying to pull the girl.
At that moment, another small truck passed by.
There were few cars on the road, but there were still some. Chen Xihua wasn't too worried about being robbed or anything, since it was daytime.
But you shouldn't get off the bus rashly.
Chen Chunhua: "Okay."
She slowly drove over and stopped on the side of the road.
Chen Chunhua stared intently, taking a closer look at the person in front of her who was becoming increasingly clear.
Her eyes suddenly widened. "Xiao Wu, that girl, I think I know her. She's my third sister's high school classmate. What's her name? I think it's Zhong Qian."
"Zhong Qian?" Although Chen Xihua had never met her, she had a vague impression of her.
This name is one that my third sister mentioned before. It seems that it was Zhong Qian who helped my third sister avoid a lot of trouble back in high school.
"Help!" Suddenly, Zhong Qian rushed out and stood in front of the small truck to block it.
The small truck in front of Chen Xihua and her sister was forced to stop. A rough, middle-aged man's voice said, "Damn it, if you're looking to die, don't drag me down with you."
The four men who were originally surrounding her also realized what was happening, and two of them ran over to try and grab her.
"Dude, sorry, this is an actress from our production crew. She wants to back out of filming."
But our film crew has already started shooting, and we can't let her delay everyone's time, so we came to bring her back."
The two men who walked over, one of them, politely told the truck driver to mind his own business.
Not far behind, the Chen sisters, who had stopped their car, had rolled down their windows and could be faintly heard talking.
"You're talking nonsense. I never signed that kind of contract. You're clearly scamming people. I said I wouldn't make those kinds of films. Even if I weren't a star, I wouldn't make the kind of movie you want me to make."
Zhong Qian angrily retorted loudly that she had been deceived.
A year ago, Zhong Qian did not apply to schools in Nan Province for the college entrance examination. Her maternal grandparents' family lived in the provincial capital of Nan Province, and she did not want to go there.
So she enrolled in a junior college in Guangdong Province. Now that it's summer vacation, she wants to go to various film crews, play minor roles, and gain experience.
But unexpectedly, she ended up working for a shady film crew.
In the morning, she went to the film studio on the outskirts of Guangzhou's Beiqu district. She then learned that they were going to shoot something where everyone had to take their clothes off.
She realized something was wrong, so she immediately ran outside and drove towards the southern province.
Little did he know, a car had been following him the whole time.
It's not that she doesn't want to go back to her school in Guangzhou, as it would be closer.
But the film crew was in Guangzhou, so she couldn't leave.
She wanted to go back to Jiang City in Nan Province, but forgot that she only had half a tank of gas in her car.
After driving for about two or three hours, the car ran out of gas and was stopped by the film crew.
These four men were actually thugs from the film crew.
Moreover, her phone was confiscated by the crew when she arrived at the film set, so she can't even report it to the police now.
"Ms. Zhong, it's no use saying this now. We have a contract. The contract states that we must unconditionally comply with the director's filming requirements."
Alternatively, you can compensate us for breach of contract, at a ratio of one to five.
The contract is for one million. If you have five million to pay us, we can let you go now.
A tall, burly thug said without any mercy.
"Even if it means losing money, I have to wait until I get back so my dad can transfer the money over." At this point, Zhong Qian was at a loss and, out of fear, agreed to pay the money.
“Sure, we have a phone number. Call your family and ask them to transfer five million to this account. Then we can pretend this never happened.”
A slightly overweight thug opened the back door of the sedan, took out his phone and a piece of paper, as if he had prepared them beforehand.
The driver of the small truck that was stopped did indeed ignore it after hearing this.
He reversed the car about ten meters back, turned the steering wheel, and slowly drove away.
Zhong Qian panicked again. She looked in the direction of Chen Xihua and Chen Chunhua's car, her eyes pleading for help.
The man next to her had already handed her the phone and was watching her dial a number.
Chen Chunhua hesitated for a moment: "Xiao Wu..."
After considering it, Chen Xihua decided that she should lend a hand in this matter.
The main point is that she saw four thugs, but they didn't seem to intend to physically assault her.
They must be after money; they don't want to make a big deal out of it.
Chen Xihua stuck her head out and shouted to the people in front of her, "Zhong, if you want compensation, you should file a lawsuit. Since you signed a contract, if there are any unreasonable issues, you should resolve them through legal channels."
Zhong Qian, who was about to call her family, suddenly stopped.
Zhong Qian looked up at Chen Xihua again, and ran over with her phone in hand. Two thugs followed her at a jog.
"You bitch, are you trying to meddle in other people's business?" The tall, burly male thug looked at Chen Xihua with a grim expression and displeasure.
The boss said that everyone should be careful during this period and not go too far.
He thought that if he could scare her and get Zhong Qian's family to transfer five million yuan, then he would have made a lot of money for the film crew.
“I’ve already called the police. You can wait for them to arrive before discussing this further,” Chen Xihua said to Zhong Qian, ignoring the man.
"Zhong, are you going back to Jiang City with us, or are you waiting for the police?"
Chen Xihua did call the police. Looking at the situation of the two cars in front, it turned out that the car behind was the one with the four thugs.
Zhong Qian's car wasn't forced to stop; it was in front of hers, so it must have run out of gas.
Calling the police is the best course of action, as the truck will need to be towed later.
"You brat, you dare call the police?" The tall, burly man looked a little flustered. He gave the other three men a look, signaling them to leave. This trip had been a waste.
Moreover, judging from what this person said, he knew Zhong Qian.
Among the three thugs behind him was a man with triangular eyes and a fierce look in his eyes; he still had some reluctance to give up.
However, we really can't do anything reckless during this period.
If it were before, he would have given Zhong Qian a good beating and then dragged her into the car and taken her home.
This woman actually dared to run away.
In addition, one or two cars pass by on this road every now and then.
They also knew that Zhong Qian's car was out of gas and couldn't drive away for the time being.
If you park here for too long, the traffic police will soon find out who owns the car.
If they really make a big fuss, their production team won't fare well either; they'll get a severe scolding from the big boss.
However, Sun Meijuan, the director's mistress, privately told herself that she wanted to teach Zhong Qian a lesson.
Damn it! It didn't work.
"Classmates, can you stay here with me until the police arrive?"
When Zhong Qian heard that the people in the car behind her were willing to help, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a calmer tone.
“Okay, the police will be here soon.” Chen Xihua glanced at the woman in the driver’s seat, smiled, and agreed.
Upon hearing this, the four thugs immediately snatched the phone from Zhong Qian's hand, quickly ran back to their car, and prepared to leave.
Zhong Qian looked a little puzzled. She had never seen this girl before, but since she called her classmate, they must have gone to the same high school.
Since she had run into someone she knew, her panic gradually subsided, and she calmed down, shouting at the four people who had run away.
"I definitely didn't sign that kind of contract. How did you get my signature? I read the contents of every contract I signed in detail!"
One of them paused for a moment.
Zhong Qian was quite certain that at this moment, she had a vague guess in her mind that she had seen that person in Guangzhou.
Sun Meijuan! Just you wait and see!
She must have provided the information to help that young master Huo from Beijing find someone.
Then, the Huo family's branch in Jiang City began a partnership with the Zhong family.
Sun Meijuan thought she had seduced Huo Shao.
