Chapter 78: Life hangs on a thread



"How could my granddaughter be injured? Brother Bai, what on earth happened?!"

When Bai Xiaofei was wiping the snot from his nose, he suddenly heard a sound coming from a distance.

He frowned and looked over, just in time to see the Great Elder rushing towards him at great speed, followed by a group of bodyguards who were worried that the Great Elder would fall.

Bai Xiaofei looked at the great elder who came up to him breathlessly and glanced over worriedly.

"Grand Elder, you are already so old, don't run too fast, or you will fall down. We can't afford to pay for their lives!"

Bai Xiaofei helplessly supported the great elder who was about to fall.

After the bodyguards caught up, they lined up on the side, not daring to do anything rash.

The Great Elder's eyes were already red, and it was unclear whether it was because he had cried in advance or for some other reason.

He glanced at Bai Xiaofei, pursed his lips and almost cried: "Brother Bai, Zhenzi is the purest bloodline of my Ximen family's descendants, she can't get into trouble! If something happens to her, I don't know why I persisted for so long, and how can I explain to my former brothers!"

Bai Xiaofei shook his head and wanted to explain to the elder: "Don't worry, elder, your granddaughter is fine..."

"Nothing good? I told you... these monsters are simply too much! Aren't there too many? I didn't want Mako to come because she is the only child of my Ximen family, but this child is just ignorant and insisted on coming here."

As he spoke, the Great Elder ignored the fact that the person in front of him was Bai Xiaofei, and said bluntly: "At the beginning, I forced him to have a relationship with you in order to leave behind descendants of my Ximen family. In this way, even if he likes to play, the entire Ximen family will not lose its confidence. But now it has turned out like this. I really don't know how to explain to those elders..."

Bai Xiaofei suddenly realized.

I see!

Just as the Great Elder was about to continue speaking, the tent behind him was suddenly opened, and Ximen Zhenzi came out, supported by Zhang Xiaoxiao. His lips were still pale, but he was obviously not as weak as before.

Ximen Zhenzi stepped forward and comforted the elder. With a red face, he lowered his voice and said, "Elder, how can you say that to me? If Brother Bai really heard it, how should I explain it?"

The Great Elder looked at Ximen Mako who appeared in front of him as if nothing had happened, and curled his lips in joy.

"You're okay? That's great!"

"It was all thanks to Miss Zhang who helped me. If it weren't for her, I would probably be dead now!"

Ximen Mako no longer had the hostility he had before when looking at Zhang Xiaoxiao, but more gratitude.

She could recall that just now, when Zhang Xiaoxiao was healing her, she could feel a warm current filling her body. Maybe she was feeling it wrongly, but it was because of that warm current that she felt herself instantly pulled out of the coldness all over her body.

Zhang Xiaoxiao is her savior, and this matter cannot be avoided.

But she remembered better than anyone else what Zhang Xiaoxiao had said just now to wake her up!

Bai Xiaofei...can belong to her once.

After looking at Bai Xiaofei with a possessive look, Ximen Zhenzi pulled the great elder away.

After asking for leave from Chen Long and staying here for almost three days, they confirmed that nothing had happened at the entrance of the monster barrier, and then the three of them returned to the crew together.

Chen Long and several investors didn't say anything because the Ximen family made another move and added a considerable investment to their crew, so Chen Long directly gave the other crew members a rest. It was at this time that they found the male lead of the crew.

He was a handsome young martial artist named Zhao Ming. Because he went to the mountains to learn martial arts since he was a child and because of his appearance, he was noticed as soon as he entered the entertainment industry. After filming his first martial arts drama, he was noticed by various directors. The reason why he came here this time was also because of Chen Long.

Although he doesn't look as powerful as Zhou Zhaolong, he has a certain number of fans, and he seems to be an honest and decent person, not the kind of person who would cause trouble.

However, Chen Long still thought it was too simple.

On the first day this guy came in, he deliberately teased and complained about his co-star Bai Xiaofei because he did not join the crew.

"Brother Long, isn't this guy a little too disrespectful? He's such a big director, how could he not take you seriously like this? I think you should replace this person! His number of fans is just this small, not even comparable to your previous employees, especially Brother Zhaolong..."

At first, Chen Long did not like the person in front of him.

But during the conversation with him, he suddenly heard the name of Zhou Zhaolong, the guy who had been punished by him, and he instantly understood.

It seems that this guy is a fan of Zhou Zhaolong.

But now he has signed a contract, and he is not an employee under his supervision, so there is no way to replace him midway.

Chen Long secretly took note of this matter, and then when Bai Xiaofei was about to shoot his first scene against this guy, he asked the assistant director to tell Bai Xiaofei.

After learning about this, Bai Xiaofei didn't know why Chen Long told him this, but he still expressed his gratitude to the assistant director and watched him leave.

Zhang Xiaoxiao and Ximen Zhenzi came one after another.

Curiously asked: "Why did Brother Long come to you to talk about this? Xiaofei, do you know what's going on?"

After Bai Xiaofei's makeup artist put the finishing touches on Bai Xiaofei's makeup, he immediately packed up and left the room.

The door is closed.

Bai Xiaofei was willing to speak: "Actually, Brother Long's main intention was to remind me. The actor we found this time is not a good person either. We should be careful and not cause any trouble."

Zhang Xiaoxiao frowned: "If this guy really dares to do something that is against the will of heaven and earth, why don't we just chase him away?"

Bai Xiaofei was about to stop him, but Ximen Zhenzi next to him nodded in agreement.

"Miss Zhang is right. Our Ximen family has invested the most in this play. Do we have to listen to what a small actor says to know what to do next? If this guy is shameless, then I will pay the money for Mr. Chen. In the end, isn't it just about money and who has more money?"

I don’t know when the relationship between Zhang Xiaoxiao and Ximen Mako became so good.

Without giving it much thought, Bai Xiaofei realized something was wrong, but he immediately refuted what Ximen Zhenzi said.

"You can't really do that. I think if money was really an excuse, I would have handled it myself a long time ago. He's not the kind of person who needs money. But since he asked the assistant director to explain it to us in advance, it's definitely not something that can be solved by paying money!"
