Chapter 824 I Can't Help With This
Upon hearing Ye Wanxi's words, many people present changed their expressions.
She just said "you all," not "you," so Jiang Yulai isn't the only "victim."
The other one should be his female assistant.
And that was indeed the case. Upon hearing this, the female assistant subconsciously touched her neck, which was covered by her turtleneck sweater, and looked flustered.
Jiang Yulai's manager stared wide-eyed in surprise, looking at Jiang Yulai and then at the female assistant, as if he had been greatly shocked.
"What she said is true? You two..."
He knew from the beginning that this young master had a chaotic private life and had improper relationships with many women that went beyond the bounds, but he never expected that he would not even spare the people around him. You know, even a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow!
Jiang Yulai was surprised that Ye Wanxi could even see through this, and awkwardly touched his nose: "This has nothing to do with what we're talking about now."
Ye Wanxi sensed his evasiveness and sneered, "How can it be nothing? Since you know why she lost control, you should be able to guess who she is, right?"
Who is it?
"You should ask your artist."
Jiang Yulai's agent was stunned, then realized that this might not be a question worth asking further.
"Ahem, no matter who she is, she shouldn't hurt people. Miss Ye, you should think about how to help Yu Lai and save his life."
Ye Wanxi raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Then Mr. Jiang, tell me, how do you plan for me to save you?"
Jiang Yulai met Ye Wanxi's eyes and felt a strange sense of foreboding.
After a long pause, he finally mustered the courage to say the method he had already thought of: "I want... I want Miss Ye to help get rid of that evil spirit."
"Eliminate?" Ye Wanxi pondered the word, then asked, "How do you want me to eliminate her, to make her soul vanish?"
Jiang Yulai remained silent, but his silence at this moment could be taken as an admission.
Ye Wanxi's smile instantly turned cold: "Sorry, I can't help with this."
This sudden turn of events left Jiang Yulai and his companions completely stunned.
"Why...why?" Jiang Yulai was the first to react, and almost jumped up and ran to Ye Wanxi crying. "Are you still angry about what I said when we first met? Then tell me how to calm you down, and how you will be willing to save me?"
Feng Tianyu, who had been quietly serving Ye Wanxi food and peeling shrimp, subconsciously looked up at Ye Wanxi when he heard this. He had a feeling that Jiang Yu must not have said anything nice when they first met.
Ye Wanxi noticed and patted his hand reassuringly: "It has nothing to do with these things. Since you have already guessed who that female ghost is, you should know what it means to have a grievance and a debtor, and that everything has a cause and effect. As an outsider, I have no right to interfere with this cause and effect."
Jiang Yulai was stunned, seemingly not expecting to be rejected for such a reason.
"Miss Ye..."
Jiang Yulai and his agent wanted to plead again, but Ye Wanxi waved her hand impatiently: "We're about to start eating. We didn't order much, so we won't keep you all here."
Such a blatant dismissal left Jiang Yulai's agent with no choice but to leave, even though he was unwilling and felt that Ye Wanxi was deliberately putting on airs and trying to get him to pay more.
As soon as the others left, Gao Min immediately sat down next to Ye Wanxi, eating as she asked Ye Wanxi curiously, "What exactly happened with that ghost? You just said that every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. Did Jiang Yu do something to offend him?"
"It's just a matter of one life for another."
"An eye for an eye? Jiang Yu has killed someone before?"
"He has never killed anyone."
Gao Min was stunned. Before he could say anything, Ye Wanxi added, "It's just that her death is inextricably linked to the other person's death."
"She's always been by his side, but she broke down after seeing him with another woman. Could this woman have had a past with him?"
Ye Wanxi smiled but remained silent, while Gao Min's expression was complicated: "So what you just did..."
"On purpose."
What she truly loathed wasn't the other person asking for her help, nor the scumbag and the bitch having a relationship, but rather the awkwardness and ruthlessness Jiang Yu displayed when he brought up the previous one.
"Even a day as husband and wife brings a hundred days of kindness." Not to mention that person was also...
Jiang Yulai knew the other party's identity and how she died, but he felt no remorse whatsoever. He immediately ordered her to beat the other party to a pulp.
Ye Wanxi was already reluctant to get involved in this matter, and hearing him say that only made her more uncomfortable, wishing she could tell him to get lost immediately.
Gao Min breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't say anything about the lofty principle that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Ye Wanxi always had a better idea of these kinds of things than her.
"It's just that the female assistant is pitiful."
Upon hearing Gao Min's words, Feng Tianyu, who was peeling a plate of shrimp for Ye Wanxi, scoffed.
"Do you really think that female assistant is innocent?"
Gao Min was stunned: "Isn't that right?"
They're all birds of a feather.
Gao Min fell silent and changed the subject, asking, "Are you two staying out tonight?"
"Um."
"Not going back?"
"The film crew is too far from where I live. Occasionally, we might have to shoot night scenes or go on location. It's troublesome to go back and forth like this every day, and it also delays things. For now, we'll just make do in a nearby hotel. It won't be for long anyway. If all goes well, it might not even take a week."
This reason was reasonable, and Gao Min couldn't object. What she was more concerned about was: "You're staying in a hotel, sharing a room?"
As soon as he said that, both of their eyes turned to look at him.
Ye Wanxi was the first to react, her face slightly flushed as she muttered, "Isn't it more convenient to live together?"
Gao Min's eyelids twitched, and she thought to herself, "What's so convenient about it? Is it convenient for you, this delicate cabbage, to be rooted up by a pig?"
Gao Min's feelings were complicated, but she knew that the two were in a romantic relationship, and she had no right to interfere in this matter.
In the end, he just sighed and said with concern, "Be careful when you go to the hotel, don't let the paparazzi take pictures of you, otherwise they might make up some messy news."
"Okay."
After having dinner with the two, Gao Min personally escorted them to their hotel.
As she watched them go in, Gao Min felt like an old mother seeing her daughter off on her wedding day, filled with worry and reluctance, wishing she could rush in right now and bring them back out.
Ye Wanxi was unaware of Gao Min's thoughts. After following her senior brother into the hotel room, she watched as her usually composed senior brother enthusiastically pulled out the script and said in a serious tone, "Let's go over the script."
Ye Wanxi: "???" A script reading in the dark? How exciting!
