[Chapter 494: To be eliminated]
Half a month later, the set of the film and television city was busy.
Chen Xueyi, dressed in ancient costume and riding on a tall horse, is preparing to shoot an intense chase scene.
There was a barely perceptible flash of determination in her eyes. She looked around and secretly thought of her own plan in her mind.
At the director's command, Chen Xueyi spurred her horse into a gallop. Suddenly, she let out a scream, fell off the horse, and landed heavily on the ground.
The scene suddenly became chaotic and the staff gathered around.
"Xueyi! Xueyi, how are you?" the assistant shouted anxiously.
Chen Xueyi closed her eyes tightly, her face was pale, but she murmured to herself: "Huo Nian... It's Huo Nian..."
The sound was faint, but loud enough for people around to hear.
The news soon reached Lan Yuanzhou's ears. He put down his work and rushed to the hospital.
Chen Xueyi was lying on the hospital bed with her right leg hung high and her body wrapped in thick gauze. She looked very pitiful.
"Xueyi, how are you?" Lan Yuanzhou came to the bedside and asked with concern.
Chen Xueyi slowly opened her eyes and saw Lan Yuanzhou. Tears welled up in her eyes immediately: "Brother Yuanzhou, will my leg never heal..."
Lan Yuanzhou comforted her, "No, the doctor said that as long as you rest well, you will be fine."
"Will I become a cripple?" Chen Xueyi's tears fell. "If I become a cripple, my career will be over. Why did Nian Nian treat me like this? Wuwuwu..."
Lan Yuanzhou frowned, "How can you be sure that it was Nian Nian who did it, and it wasn't an accident?"
Chen Xueyi's voice was choked with sobs. "The crew's horse was the most docile one borrowed from the horse farm. It had participated in many TV shows before and had never had any problems. Other actors also rode it yesterday and it was very docile, but when it came to me, the horse suddenly went crazy... Someone must have done something, and I can't think of anyone else except Nian Nian. After all, she hates me the most and has bribed others to bully me before... Brother Lanzhou, I'm so sad."
Looking at Chen Xueyi crying, Lan Yuanzhou was shocked, but a look of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He didn't believe that Huo Nian would do such a thing. Huo Nian had the temper of a young lady and was impulsive, but she was kind by nature and would never do something that would kill others.
At this moment, Lin Yin's words were playing in Lan Yuanzhou's mind again.
His eyes darkened slightly, and he already had something in mind.
With a calm expression on his face, he comforted her softly, "Don't get excited yet, take good care of your injuries, I will check it out."
On the other side, Huo Nian was at home taking care of her pregnancy when she suddenly received a call from Lin Yin.
"Niannian, have you heard? Chen Xueyi fell off a horse and was injured on the set, and she said it was you who did it." There was a hint of seriousness in Lin Yin's voice.
Huo Nian was furious when he heard this: "How is that possible? I didn't go to Haicheng at all. She is deliberately framing me!"
"I believe you, but now everyone is saying that you did it. Don't worry, we will think of a solution." Lin Yin comforted.
Huo Nian gritted his teeth, his heart filled with anger and grievance: "She is framing me, it's really endless!"
Lin Yin sighed: "No matter what, let's get things straight first. Chen Xueyi has been taken back by Yuan Zhou and is in our hospital. I'll go with you to see what's going on."
Huo Nian and Lin Yin rushed to the hospital.
Arriving at the ward, Huo Nian saw Lan Yuanzhou as soon as he raised his eyes, and the two looked at each other.
"I didn't do this." Huo Nian said with a firm tone.
Lan Yuanzhou didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly. When his eyes swept across her face, which was thinner than before, his brows slightly frowned.
Why have you lost weight? Is it because you have no appetite during pregnancy and are not eating well?
Huo Nian saw the frown, but she interpreted it as disbelief.
She bit her lip, feeling a little pain in her heart, "Believe it or not, I didn't do it anyway!"
Before Lan Yuanzhou could speak, the assistant standing in the corner couldn't help but speak up, in a very unfriendly tone, "Ms. Huo, everyone in the industry knows that the person you hate the most is Xue Yi. You always bully her, and even deliberately slap her in the face during filming. Xue Yi fell off her horse for no reason. Who else would do this except you?"
When mentioning the slapping incident, Huo Nian's eyes suddenly swept towards Chen Xueyi, "How dare you bring this up? It was Chen Xueyi who said she was afraid that she couldn't act well and asked me to do it for real. I refused, but she begged me, saying that she was afraid that her acting skills would affect the plot, so I agreed. Chen Xueyi, do you dare to deny it? If I tell a lie, I will die a miserable death. If you lie, your son's illness will never be cured!"
Chen Xueyi cared about her son the most. Her expression suddenly changed and became a little ugly. "Niannian, how can you be so vicious? Anan is only a three-year-old child."
"Why don't you do some good deeds instead of just trying to frame me all day long." Huo Nian glanced at Lan Yuanzhou, "I know your purpose. You just want to marry Lan Yuanzhou and bring your son to marry into a wealthy family."
Chen Xueyi felt a little flustered when her thoughts were exposed, and she secretly glanced at Lan Yuanzhou's reaction.
Lan Yuanzhou just stared at Huo Nian without moving his eyes away.
Her heart sank suddenly, and a feeling of unwillingness surged up.
Then, with red eyes, she said with tears in her eyes, "Nian Nian, I really don't have that kind of intention towards Brother Yuan Zhou. Why do you always misunderstand me and even break the law to intentionally injure others, causing me to fall off my horse."
"Ms. Chen." Lin Yin, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up, her tone slightly cold, "Please be careful when you say something you don't have any evidence for, or else it would be slander. The Yunshen Group's legal department is not a pushover."
Chen Xueyi shrank her shoulders in fear and complained, "Ms. Lin, I know you are Nian Nian's sister-in-law, and you favor her. You are a wealthy consortium that I cannot afford to offend, but... should ordinary people be bullied by the powerful?"
Lan Yuanzhou frowned even more tightly as he listened to Chen Xueyi's crying. He looked at Lin Yin with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and then he looked at Huo Nian with a complicated look.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but held back.
He turned to face Chen Xueyi and soothed her gently, "Xueyi, don't get excited for now. Take good care of your injuries. We will eventually find out what happened."
He knew in his heart that Huo Nian would not do such a thing, but he could not alert the enemy at the moment, so he could only calm Chen Xueyi down first.
When Huo Nian saw how gentle Lan Yuanzhou was towards Chen Xueyi, his heart felt like it was hit hard by a heavy hammer.
She bit her lower lip, her eyes reddened, and her voice trembled a little: "Lan Yuanzhou, you still don't believe me."
Lan Yuanzhou avoided her gaze and said in a deep voice: "Niannian, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I need time to figure things out now."
He has sent someone to investigate.
Huo Nian snorted coldly, "Time? You always say that, but what's the result? You always side with her!"
Having said that, she turned and rushed out the door.
Seeing this, Lin Yin hurriedly chased after him.
Lan Yuanzhou and Chen Xueyi were the only ones left in the ward. Chen Xueyi looked at Lan Yuanzhou and sobbed softly, "Brother Yuanzhou, should I not have said this? I made things difficult for you."
Lan Yuanzhou said calmly: "You take good care of your injuries, I will take care of the rest."
After saying that, he also walked out of the ward.
Huo Nian ran all the way back to the apartment, threw himself on the bed, and cried uncontrollably.
She stroked her slightly bulging belly, and her heart felt as if a handful of sand was stuffed into it, causing a sharp pain.
"Baby, daddy doesn't believe mommy, what should mommy do?" she murmured to herself, her eyes full of sadness.
When Lin Yin rushed to the apartment, Huo Nian was curled up on the bed crying.
She sat on the bed and gently stroked Huo Nian's hair: "Niannian, don't be too sad. Yuanzhou doesn't disbelieve you. He must have his own plans."
Huo Nian cried and said, "Sister-in-law, he doesn't believe me at all. He would rather believe Chen Xueyi's words than me. I don't want to go on like this. I want to abort this child and break up with him completely."
Lin Yin was horrified: "Niannian, don't be impulsive! The child is innocent. Give Yuanzhou some more time, he will definitely find out the truth."
Huo Nian acted as if he didn't hear her, and continued to talk to himself: "I have made up my mind. I don't want my children to live with such suspicion and distrust in the future."
