Chapter 142 Salary Increase!



Upon hearing Han Mengyao's words, the assistant director and Count Lanruer, who were carefully examining the pyramid, sprang into action and quickly left the scene.

Count Lanruer even accidentally bumped into the wall due to excessive force, and is now silently crying in the corner, hugging his arms.

Only Wang Yingying froze on the spot after hearing those words, a thoughtful expression on her face.

Ji Qian couldn't care less about Wang Yingying at this moment. She gripped her phone tightly, feeling her arms trembling uncontrollably.

"Meng, Sister Meng, my signal is bad. What did you just say there were three things inside?"

In fact, Ji Qian heard it very clearly, but she still held onto hope that she might have misheard.

"I mean, there are three corpses in there!"

Han Mengyao ruthlessly shattered Ji Qian's wishful thinking and considerately added supplementary explanations:

"That cult that uses a golden triangle as its emblem has members who are extreme human supremacists."

They believed that bricks, tiles, and mud were unreliable, and that only the living human body was the hardest thing in the world.

Therefore, they were keen on embedding living people into the walls, believing that this would ensure the peace and stability of their homes.

"In other words..."

Although Han Mengyao didn't explicitly say it, Ji Qian understood the unspoken meaning in her words, and her gaze towards the pyramid became increasingly strange.

The assistant director didn't even bother filming anymore; he simply carried the camera and headed for the door, ready to go out and keep Ji Qian company.

Before he could take two steps, Wang Yingying snatched the camera from his hand.

Wang Yingying held the camera high and jumped onto the platform in two quick steps.

She turned to face the doorway, her once sweet face now contorted with madness:

"Get in! Or I'll smash this thing!"

Considering that the camera was, after all, the production team's shared property, Ji Qian hesitated for a moment, then quickened her pace toward the second room.

The assistant director was speechless with shock at the sudden turn of events, but as the camera was raised higher and higher, his fear of Director Liu eventually overcame his astonishment.

"Teacher Wang, please don't be impulsive. I'll go and bring Teacher Ji back right away!"

After saying that, the assistant director dashed out the door, sliding to his knees and landing at Ji Qian's feet.

"Teacher Ji! That camera is a brand new model with night vision. Including customs duties, it cost us hundreds of thousands, and it's been in use for less than a year!!!"

The assistant director, with tears streaming down his face, lamented to Ji Qian how precious the camera was, saying that he hadn't cried this hard, not even when Director Liu nearly died.

Ji Qian struggled a few times but couldn't break free, so she simply dragged the assistant director along to the second room.

Wang Yingying's warning has entered its final countdown:

"I'll count to ten, if you don't come back soon, this thing will be gone!"

Ten, nine, eight…

"No!"

In desperation, the assistant director finally came up with a temptation that no working person could resist:

"Teacher Ji, we'll pay more!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Qian stopped in her tracks.

Seeing that things were about to take a turn for the better, the assistant director gritted his teeth:

"Each recording session will incur an additional 50,000 yuan, and overtime pay after midnight will be calculated by the hour."

"Overtime pay after midnight will be double, and I will decide on the procurement channels for props from now on."

Ji Qian had wanted to complain about the show's props since the last time it was filmed at the old house. She wondered what channels the production team used to purchase the props, as the proportion of counterfeit and substandard items was even higher than that of the scenic area itself.

"Double overtime pay is no problem, but this prop procurement..."

Seeing that the assistant director was about to hesitate again, Ji Qian didn't press the matter further and simply took another step forward.

Feeling himself being dragged forward again, the assistant director snapped out of his daze:

"No problem, I'll do as you say!"

Thanks to the assistant director's significant sacrifice on behalf of the production team, Ji Qian and the others finally made it back to their room before the countdown ended.

Director Liu, who had listened to the entire proceedings through headphones upstairs, was so frustrated that he nearly fainted again.

Back in her room, Ji Qian looked at Wang Yingying standing on the high platform, her face clearly saying, "I'm not pretending anymore." She decided not to beat around the bush with her.

"Time is precious, so just say what you need to say."

Seeing Ji Qian's unceremonious attitude, Wang Yingying understood everything perfectly:

When did you find out?

"I noticed it as soon as I woke up this morning; you don't have an accent."

To be honest, before encountering this imposter, Ji Qian hadn't realized that Wang Yingying's voice actually contained a hint of a Northeastern accent.

What plot point did I miss this time?

[Sister Qian's words are clearly loaded with meaning.]

Does Wang Yingying have an accent?

I think she's targeting our Yingying!

It seems that someone's fans not only have poor hearing, but also poor eyesight!

[Our Sister Qian always confronts people directly when she's unhappy; she never schemes against them!]

Wait, how did they start arguing?

[Just a casual observer, but I feel like Wang Yingying is definitely acting differently today than usual]

Me too, I feel like she's become more pretentious.

[I have a bold hypothesis about this: Do you think it's possible that this 'Wang Yingying' isn't actually Wang Yingying at all?!]

[This is terrifying to think about!]

No way, I feel like I won't be able to sleep tonight...

[Little girl in front, don't be afraid, your big brother can come to your house and keep you company~]

[Dude, if you're going to be disgusting, at least check your gender first. I'm a perfectly legitimate, pure man!]

[Hmm~ Why not? [Always stirring up trouble.jpg]]
