Chapter 230: Follow the Flow
Seeing his ugly expression, Chi Muzhen felt that his attitude was a little strange, but she didn't think much about it.
"Shi Yiheng was injured while filming not long ago. He has now moved into the villa next door. When I came back today, I happened to see his agent sending him back. He asked me to help take care of Shi Yiheng if anything happened. Are you jealous?"
Seeing the teasing in Chi Muzhen's eyes, Huo Yunting couldn't laugh at all.
He stood up, picked up two dishes and put them into the lunch box, and said coldly, "I'll take them to him."
Chi Muzhen was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of surprise.
"Mr. Huo, have you suddenly changed your personality? Didn't you dislike Shi Yiheng when you saw him before?"
"He's your friend. I'm sure you won't have anything to do with him."
After saying that, Huo Yunting walked out with the lunch box.
Chi Muzhen quickly stopped him and said, "When you speak, please tone down the cold aura around you. Otherwise, people might think you are here to collect a debt."
Huo Yunting's expression was icy. "Okay, reheat the soup. I'll be back soon."
"good."
After confirming that Chi Muzhen did not follow him, Huo Yunting quickly walked to Shi Yiheng's door and knocked.
When Shi Yiheng saw that it was Huo Yunting outside, surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Boss Huo, do you have something to talk to me about?"
His attitude was not good. After all, although he went to the fire to rescue Chi Muzhen and did not want to get anything from Chi Muzhen, the little tricks that Huo Yunting and Shi Xingguo did behind his back made him very unhappy.
Huo Yunting's expression was icy. "Zhenzhen asked me to come and bring you some food."
Hearing this, a soft look flashed in Shi Yiheng's eyes.
"Give me the things, and you can leave."
Huo Yunting did not give him the lunch box, but looked at him expressionlessly.
"I want to talk to you."
Shi Yiheng chuckled softly, leaning against the door and looking at him coldly, "What does Mr. Huo want to talk about? About the fact that I saved Mu Zhen but you and Shi Xingguo kept it a secret? Or about the deal between you and Shi Xingguo?"
With every word he spoke, Huo Yunting's face became colder.
In the end, the coldness emanating from Huo Yunting's body almost froze people to death.
"I know this is unfair to you, but it's over now. I don't want Zhenzhen to recall those painful memories. The Huo family has recently invested in several big-budget dramas. I can ask the director to replace the lead role with you."
Shi Yiheng's expression turned extremely sarcastic after hearing this. "Boss Huo, do you think that if you reward me with a few plays, the matter of me saving Mu Zhen can be written off?"
Huo Yunting looked at him coldly, "Mr. Shi, if you are too greedy, you may end up with nothing."
"The greedy person seems to be Mr. Huo."
Shi Yiheng's hand, gripping the cane, turned pale. He looked at Huo Yunting straight in the eye and spoke slowly, "I saved Mu Zhen voluntarily, not expecting anything in return."
After saying that, he was about to close the door, but was stopped by Huo Yunting.
"Since you don't want anything in return, never mention this matter in front of her!"
Shi Yiheng's voice seemed to be tinged with ice and snow. "Don't worry, Mr. Huo. I don't want Mu Zhen to get hurt any more than you do."
If she knew that the man she liked had cheated on her, she would definitely be very sad. Shi Yiheng didn't want to see her sad, so he planned to bury this matter deep in his heart and not let her know.
Seeing Huo Yunting coming back with the lunch box, Chi Muzhen couldn't help but frown, "Shi Yiheng doesn't want it?"
Huo Yunting nodded, "Well, let's eat."
"I'll go take it to him. He's injured now, so it's inconvenient for him to cook."
As soon as she picked up the food box, Huo Yunting grabbed her wrist.
"Zhenzhen, even if he can't cook for himself, he can always order takeout. I'll be unhappy if you care about other men like this."
Chi Muzhen didn't expect Huo Yunting to express his emotions so bluntly. After a moment of hesitation, she put down the lunch box and nodded, "Okay."
After dinner, the two of them cleaned up Chi Muzhen and asked Huo Yunting to go back to his room to rest, then went to the study to process documents.
Back in the bedroom, Huo Yunting called Ke Ning.
"Go contact Shi Yiheng's agent and give him the scripts for the movies and TV series that Huo's previously invested in. Have him give them to Shi Yiheng to choose from."
"Okay, Mr. Huo, I understand."
"Remember to tell his agent not to let on about Huo's investment."
An hour later, Shi Yiheng received a call from his agent.
"Yiheng, didn't you like those previous scripts? A few directors sent me some new scripts. I'll send them to you to take a look."
Shi Yiheng frowned. In the evening, Huo Yunting had just said that he was planning to let him act in the new drama invested by Huo's company. Now his agent had a new script. How could such a coincidence happen in the world?
He lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while.
Without waiting for his answer, the agent continued, "Yiheng, are you listening? Is your injury affecting the filming? Don't worry, the directors said that as long as you pay attention to the script, the entire crew will wait until you recover before filming begins."
"Brother Cheng, these scripts of yours were given to you by Mr. Huo, right?"
The agent's puzzled voice came, "What Mr. Huo? Why don't I understand what you are talking about?"
Shi Yiheng's lips curled up into a smile, but his voice was a little cold, "Even if you don't want to tell me, I can find out the results by calling the investors of these dramas."
There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then Brother Cheng's helpless voice came.
"Yiheng, as long as the script is good, why bother about who invested? We have a cooperative relationship with the investors, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Please help me reject these scripts."
The agent tried to persuade Shi Yiheng for a while, but seeing that he couldn't persuade him, he sighed and hung up the phone.
For the next two days, Huo Yunting stayed in Chi Muzhen's villa. Shi Yiheng could occasionally see them going out to buy groceries together and going out for a walk together after dinner from the second-floor balcony.
Shi Yiheng once fantasized that one day he would be able to get along with Chi Muzhen like this, but in the end it was just his wishful thinking.
Chi Muzhen never paid attention to him, and he was just an ordinary friend to her.
On Monday morning, Chi Muzhen received a call from Shen Tian just as she was about to leave for the company.
"Zhenzhen, I want to take some time off."
Hearing her voice was a little hoarse, Chi Muzhen frowned, "Is it because of your second uncle?"
"No, I just want to rest for a while."
"how long?"
"About half a month."
After a few seconds of silence, Chi Muzhen said, "Okay, but your phone must be accessible at any time. There may be some work that needs to be handled by you."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Tian couldn't hold back her tears any longer.
Her face and body were covered in bruises, and it was obvious that she had been beaten.
Yesterday, Shen Jianzhou's son Shen Hai came to the house and said that he wanted to seek justice for Shen Jianzhou. Shen Tian wanted to explain to him that Shen Jianzhou's behavior violated the law, so she asked the security guard to let him in.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the villa, he grabbed Shen Tian's hair and started beating her.
Shen Tian wanted to escape, but the strength disparity between men and women was so great that her struggle was completely useless.
She experienced the most desperate hour, and in the end she felt pain all over her body, her eyes went black, and she passed out.
When she woke up again, she was the only one left in the villa, but there was a message from Shen Hai on her phone, threatening her to release his father immediately, otherwise he would find someone to strengthen her next time.
Shen Tian was filled with fear and didn't know what to do.
Wen Qinghe was on a business trip recently, and she didn't even have anyone to discuss things with. The only solution she could think of was to pack up her things quickly and leave Chengdu for a while, and then come back after her injuries healed.
If people knew that she was beaten by Shen Hai, who knows how those relatives would mock her.
After calling Chi Muzhen, Shen Tian immediately booked a flight and packed up to leave.
However, not long after she left the villa, Shen Hai and a few others stopped her.
"My dear cousin, where do you want to go?!"
