"Alan!" The people below exclaimed in alarm and rushed over, but they were too far away and no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't save her in time. They could only watch helplessly as Le Yao fell.
However, just when everyone was in despair, a figure suddenly darted past from the side, moving so fast that everyone thought it was an illusion.
Then I heard a muffled groan.
Instead of the expected fall and permanent injury, Le Yao was caught and cushioned by someone. Although she was in pain all over, she knew she was mostly alright, but the person beneath her...
"Nangong Jue? How are you?"
"Are you alright?" Nangong Jue's face was deathly pale, and cold sweat was pouring down his forehead.
"I'm fine, how about you?" Le Yao hurriedly got up.
Nangong Jue opened his mouth as if to say something, but instead spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"You... quickly call a doctor, call an ambulance..." Le Yao's eyes were blurred with tears.
The ambulance arrived quickly, and after a brief examination, they took the person away.
Le Yao got into the car without even changing her clothes. A preliminary examination revealed that the man had two broken ribs, which were likely embedded in his lungs.
Everyone was terrified, especially the crew. If it were an ordinary person who was injured, it might be easier to handle; at worst, they could just pay more compensation. But now it was Nangong Jue who was injured. Was he someone who was short of money?
The director fell flat on his backside. If this wasn't handled properly, his directing career would probably be over.
"Investigate." Wu Ya's face was extremely grim.
Soon, Hai Song and his men arrived and took over the case. They even showed relevant credentials, making it perfectly legitimate for them to investigate such a case.
Le Yao was unaware of the situation on the film set. She was anxiously waiting outside the operating room. Fortunately, Fu Yun Shen was in charge, which made her feel a little more at ease. However, the image of Nangong Jue's mouthful of blood from before kept replaying in her mind.
"Don't worry, Lord will be alright." Hong Xia, who had come with her, reached out and hugged Le Yao.
Le Yao nodded: "Yes, he is a nobleman, how could anything happen to him?"
"Don't worry, Qiaoqiao and the others stayed there to investigate. They won't let the bad guys succeed." Although Hongxia wasn't in the film industry, she knew that wire work was always supervised and inspected by specialized personnel, so the possibility of an accident was very small.
She had reason to suspect that someone wanted Le Yao dead.
Le Yao nodded again, not wanting to say anything.
Hongxia didn't say anything more, she just sat quietly with her.
Soon, Qiaoqiao and the others arrived as well.
"How is he?" Qiaoqiao sat down on the other side of Leyao.
"He's still in surgery, it's been three hours already, and I don't know..." Le Yao sighed, "Qiao, do you think I'm his jinx? Ever since he changed his attitude towards me, he's always getting hurt because of me. If this continues, what if..."
"You're overthinking it." Qiao Qiao patted Le Yao's head. "Who is Nangong Jue? Don't underestimate him. That man isn't so easy to kill. Besides, isn't it a man's duty to protect a woman? Does he expect someone else to protect his wife?"
Le Yao's lips twitched. The sadness and hurt she had felt earlier were inexplicably driven away by this woman's few words.
"What's the situation on the wire side?" Hong Xia couldn't help but ask.
