“Okay, okay, Ms. Qu, why don’t we add each other as friends? It’ll be easier to transfer money that way.” Director Sun nodded and said, “Old Liu, you tell everyone to get ready. Ms. Qu must be thirsty after talking so much, I’ll go get her a cup of tea.”
Upon hearing that Sun Buhui wanted to transfer money, Qu Jian'er was overjoyed and her eyes lit up with a smile. She immediately agreed to add him as a friend.
Everyone was thinking the same thing: Why are you being so attentive, old man? Can someone explain why Qu Jian'er wasn't driven away as they thought? How did she manage to get the incense?
Director Liu's eyes were unreadable as he gazed at Qu Jian'er's retreating figure, a myriad of thoughts swirling within him.
He witnessed his assistants fail to burn incense, while Qu Jian'er succeeded, and he did not believe it was a coincidence.
Is it really as Sun Buhui said?
Regardless of what Director Liu thinks.
He eventually suppressed his thoughts and let the production team begin the inspection and preparation for filming.
At that time.
Qu Jian'er had just stepped out of the restroom and finished washing her hands when she received a holographic video.
When the call connected, she turned on the recording function.
Li Jie, pale and weak, lay in the metal treatment chamber, pleading for mercy in Qu Jian'er's direction.
Li Jie looked filled with regret and said weakly, "It was Qu Jiaorou who told me to harm you that night, not me. Please, please, save me!"
Qu Jian'er shook the water off her hands: "What should I do? I still prefer your old, unruly self."
Li Jie shook her head and pleaded, "No, I wouldn't dare. I clearly felt death, but the doctor said I was fine! Save me, I was wrong, I shouldn't have hurt you!"
Qu Jian'er hung up the phone: "Hey, the signal here is terrible."
In fact, she had already anticipated that the other party would be affected, but Li Jie was not desperate enough yet.
Only by instilling in Li Jie a fear of death and a desire to survive, and by making her remember this and willing to make sacrifices, can we truly empower her.
Only when she makes the request to pay money to prolong her life will Li Jie agree without hesitation.
At the same time, Li Jie's fate will also be seen by other "screen thieves".
After she has extracted all the remaining value from Li Jie, the other party will inadvertently end up giving her free publicity.
Qu Jian'er smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror. On this young face, there was a purity and innocence that she had never seen in her previous life.
Her raven-feather-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and her lowered eyelids seemed to carry a hint of unspeakable madness.
Qu Jian'er rubbed her face, feigning innocence. She had no idea that Li Jie had thrown away her phone and was now sobbing uncontrollably.
Humans only become aware of death when they are near it.
Only then can one truly feel helplessness and regret.
