In order to avoid negative news about the program, the director and producer immediately issued a gag order.
All photos or videos taken or recorded must be deleted.
The hotel manager issued a gag order to his employees even before the production crew did.
The hotel manager looked displeased; he had to give the order, as it would severely impact business.
From the time the incident occurred to the time the police were called, to the time the evidence was collected at the scene, to the time the statement was taken, it took about four hours in total.
Apart from the production crew, all the guests checked out and left early.
Xu Zian invited Jian Yu to walk together, but Jian Yu waved his hand and declined, saying, "I have something to do, you go first!"
"What's wrong? I'll go with you."
"Private matter."
Normal people wouldn't press the issue if they heard about private matters.
Xu Zian, however, insisted on getting to the bottom of things, saying, "We're acquaintances, so if you need any help, just let me know."
Jian Yu looked at him meaningfully, "Aren't you going to see Yu Yao?"
Yu Yao and Xu Niannian are allies.
Xu Zian, “…”
He hadn't planned to go to the hospital, and it would be cold-blooded of him to simply say he wasn't going.
After all, they had just recorded a show together for a week.
Xu Zian: "The production team will represent us."
Jian Yu said, "The production team should have gone anyway; going would have represented themselves."
Xu Zian's lips twitched slightly. "I'll have my assistant go and visit him."
Jian Yu said, "No rush, maybe we won't have to go later."
What do you mean by "I don't need to go later"?
Xu Zian was stunned for a moment before he realized what Jian Yu meant.
This means that Yu Yao's injuries are so severe that she may die.
The director and producer were drinking water to calm themselves down when they heard this. They immediately put down their cups and got up to go to the hospital.
Xu Zian watched them leave in a hurry and said to Jian Yu, "Let's change hotels first. I've performed in this city before, and there's a very nice hotel there. I'll book one for you too."
"Need not."
Jian Yu walked past Xu Zi'an and headed outside.
As soon as I stepped out of the hotel, I saw a black Maybach parked in front of the door, and a tall, slender man was getting out of the car.
When Jian Yu suddenly saw Huo Qizhen appear in front of her, she thought she was seeing things. This was not a luxury hotel. Even if Huo Qizhen was in the area on a business trip, he would not stay here.
If you're not staying here, why did you come here?
As soon as Huo Qizhen got out of the car, he looked Jian Yu up and down.
Huo Qizhen's deep eyes were like shattered jade stars. Jian Yu only glanced at them, and her feet, which were about to step forward, involuntarily stopped.
Why did she see worry in the other person's eyes?
Are you seeing things?
Huo Qizhen had long legs, and he reached Jian Yu in just a few steps.
Are you injured?
Jian Yu shook his head. "No, how did you get here?"
"I was just passing by when I heard something happened here, so I came to check it out."
Jian Yu turned to look at George.
George said, "After the incident, Uncle Li happened to chat with me, so I told him about it."
It turned out that Uncle Li had told him.
Jian Yu nodded.
Thank you for coming.
Huo Qizhen asked, "Where are you going next?"
"Chen Tianci has died in a car accident. There shouldn't be any need for me here. I'll find another place to rest tonight and go back tomorrow."
Huo Qizhen said, "Then stay at the same hotel as me! We'll go back together tomorrow."
"Um."
Huo Qizhen turned around and got into the Maybach. Jian Yu walked towards the nanny van next to him. Huo Qizhen's bodyguard stood in front of the Maybach and gestured for Jian Yu to get in.
Jian Yu paused, glanced at the van, and then at the Maybach.
No matter which car it is, it belongs to the Huo family.
He then got into the Maybach.
Shortly after getting into the car, Jian Yu's phone rang.
It was an unfamiliar number.
"Hello?"
As soon as the call connected, a roar came from the other end.
"Jian Yu! You heartless bastard! Since you broke off ties with your family in a fit of pique and ran away from home, why did you have to go far away instead of dragging Yu Yao and Yu Ze into this? I shouldn't have taken you out of the orphanage. You're a jinx. You behaved improperly and got into trouble with thugs, yet you made others take the fall for you."
Qi Yuexi's voice was urgent and sharp, and everyone in the car could hear it clearly.
Everyone's faces fell.
Especially Huo Qizhen, who seemed to be surrounded by ice.
Jian Yu showed no reaction, her emotions remaining calm. "Ms. Qi, you probably haven't understood one thing."
Hearing Jian Yu's tone, Qi Yuexi frowned. Why couldn't she hear any guilt or worry in his voice?
“Yu Yao didn’t take the blame for me; she brought it on herself. She was the one who provoked Chen Tianci, so naturally she is the one who is being retaliated against.”
Qi Yuexi was dumbfounded.
After several seconds, he suddenly shouted, "Stop talking nonsense! What is this Chen Tianci? He's a penniless wretch who doesn't do any proper work. How could Yu Yao possibly know him?"
"Then you need to ask your youngest son. He knows everything and has even been a great help."
"..." Qi Yuexi was a little flustered, but quickly covered it up. "You're still the same as always, you never get tired of the same trick."
Jian Yu didn't want to talk to her anymore and prepared to hang up the phone.
Qi Yuexi seemed to have guessed that she would hang up, and said very quickly, "You need to go to the hospital right now. They are both implicated because of you. You must wait until they are out of danger before you leave!"
Jian Yu narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
I don't know if I'm just imagining things, but Qi Yuexi seemed a bit off when she talked about escaping danger.
"I'm not a doctor, I can't just go there and...make people recover."
Jian Yu stared at a car in the rearview mirror, lost in thought.
The car had been following them ever since the Maybach appeared. At first, she thought it was just going the same way, but after receiving Qi Yuexi's call, she changed her mind.
Qi Yuexi borrowed someone else's number to call her, which was definitely not as simple as just asking her to visit her in the hospital.
Chen Tianci struck hard; Yu Ze was stabbed in the lower back, and it's estimated that he will lose one of his kidneys.
Yu Yao was stabbed in the chest and abdomen. Judging from the length of the bloodstains on the fruit knife, her internal organs were likely seriously injured.
There is a high possibility that the injuries will be fatal.
If Yu Yao were gone, Qi Yuexi would definitely eat her alive.
Hang up the phone, "Shake off that car behind you."
Huo Qizhen's driver was shocked: "Is there something wrong with that car?"
The bodyguard in the car immediately turned on his walkie-talkie and contacted the car behind, saying, "Watch out for the BMW driving alongside you."
The other end replied instantly, "What's wrong with this car?"
The driver asked Jian Yu through the rearview mirror.
Jian Yu said, "They might be sent by my parents to arrest me."
Huo Qizhen glanced coldly at the car. "Don't move it yet."
They immediately contacted the hospital where Yu Yao was staying, "Let's find out their condition first?"
Not long after, they replied.
Yu Yao's entire lung was punctured; it was practically riddled with holes.
It needs to be replaced urgently.
Huo Qizhen's eyes were as cold as ice. Did the Yu family want to take Jian Yu away for a lung transplant?
