Chapter 431: Escape from the Hospital
Lin Yilan was a little annoyed and felt that she was being ridiculed for no reason.
"You're just being too righteous. This kind of workplace sexual harassment isn't uncommon in the entertainment industry, but in other industries as well. It's not just women, some men are also sexually harassed in the workplace. If you can't stand it and don't have the ability to resist, you can only find a new job."
"What do you mean by being too righteous? Would you just sit back and watch something like this happen?" Lin Yilan muttered angrily and aggrievedly.
After a moment's silence, Vivian said seriously, "If I were the one being sexually harassed, I wouldn't tolerate it. But if it happened to someone else, someone like Zhang Xiaoxiao who had nothing to do with me, I'd choose to mind my own business."
It is not easy for a person to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, and she is not interested in causing trouble for herself.
"It seems that we are different." Lin Yilan sighed.
"That's why I admire you." Vivian continued, continuing Lin Yilan's words, "But I still advise you to mind your own business and stop targeting Assistant Director Ma."
Lin Yilan snorted, "I won't. I want to see how capable this Deputy Director Ma is and what kind of backing he has. What can he do to me?"
Vivian smiled helplessly, but at least Lin Yilan had Huo Juncheng behind her, so she was not worried that Deputy Director Ma would really do anything to Lin Yilan.
Just when Lin Yilan was sulking, Huo Juncheng suddenly called.
"You took the heroine away. Don't you want to make a movie anymore?" Huo Juncheng's voice sounded very gentle on the other end of the phone.
Vivian, who was sitting opposite Lin Yilan, also received a call from her agent.
"What do you mean I took the heroine away? Didn't the filming stop..." Lin Yilan was about to shout, but when she heard Huo Juncheng's laughter on the other end of the phone, she understood in an instant.
"Huo Juncheng, you know the filming has been suspended, so you helped me solve it, right?" Lin Yilan felt very happy. She didn't plan to tell Huo Juncheng about this, as Huo Juncheng knew it himself.
It seems that Huo Juncheng has been silently paying attention to her work, and Lin Yilan's heart suddenly felt warm.
"I'm just outside your coffee shop. I'll take you back to the crew." Huo Juncheng's next sentence made Lin Yilan explode with joy.
After hanging up the phone, Vivian's teasing immediately hit him, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, a woman who is loved is different."
Apparently, Vivian also learned from her agent that the filming of the movie could continue.
Lin Yilan smiled embarrassedly, ran out of the cafe and got into Huo Juncheng's car.
Half an hour later, Huo Juncheng and Lin Yilan appeared on the set. All the crew members had already arrived, and Director Wang had been waiting for Huo Juncheng to arrive.
"Just focus on filming, I'll take care of everything." Huo Juncheng touched Lin Yilan's head affectionately at the door of the crew, speaking in a very doting manner.
This big mouthful of dog food almost choked the staff to death.
Lin Yilan quickly got into work mode, and Huo Juncheng did not leave either. He sat in the corner of the crew and processed the files on his mobile phone.
The staff present forced themselves to accept the fact that "Mr. Huo was working with his girlfriend" as if they had seen a ghost.
But today, Director Wang asked Lin Yilan to hand over the work at hand to another martial arts instructor, allowing Lin Yilan to finish her work early.
Lin Yilan was very unconvinced, but Director Wang glanced at Huo Juncheng and said, "This is all Mr. Huo's idea. I am just an obedient person. Miss Lin, please don't embarrass me."
Lin Yilan didn't understand why Huo Juncheng did this. However, she couldn't change her mind, so she handed over the work with resentment. Then, with an unhappy look on her face, she walked up to Huo Juncheng and kicked the leg of his table.
"Why don't you let me work here?"
When Huo Juncheng saw Lin Yilan coming, he put away his phone, stood up, and took Lin Yilan's hand, "Let's go, I'll take you back first."
In the car, Huo Juncheng said to Lin Yilan in a gentle voice, "I've been a little busy lately. I took you away because I was afraid you would cause trouble again on the crew. If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't be able to take care of you."
Lin Yilan was a little unconvinced, but this time it was indeed Huo Juncheng who helped her to deal with it. Lin Yilan could not speak firmly and could only whisper, "I didn't ask you to take care of me."
"Then please don't cause me any trouble recently." Huo Juncheng smiled helplessly and dotingly.
The atmosphere between the two had just become a little more harmonious, but as soon as he returned home, Huo Juncheng received another piece of news that made his brain explode.
It was the hospital calling.
"Is that Mr. Huo?"
The call from the hospital was naturally about Jenny. Huo Juncheng thought Jenny had caused some trouble again. "What does she want?"
"Mr. Huo, Jenny ran away from the hospital. We saw on the surveillance camera that she deliberately avoided the nurses and doctors and ran out of the hospital on her own. I hope you can go and look for her. Her mental state is not very good and something might have happened to her."
"Jenny ran away from the hospital?" Huo Juncheng frowned.
"Let's go to the road near the hospital first." Although Lin Yilan hated Jenny, she also sympathized with Jenny's situation and didn't want Jenny to be in any danger of her life, so she spoke up first.
The two drove to the vicinity of the hospital and after searching for a while, they saw Jenny in a hospital gown on the sidewalk. Just as Huo Juncheng was about to park the car, a small van drove in front of them and stopped next to Jenny.
Several big men jumped out of the car and carried Jenny into the van.
Jenny struggled but it was no use.
There were few people on the street, and those people moved so quickly that no one noticed that a woman was kidnapped in the street.
"Chase him!" Lin Yilan suddenly became anxious.
Huo Juncheng understood without Lin Yilan saying anything, and he stepped on the accelerator and chased after him.
But the minivan seemed to sense someone was chasing them and sped up as well. The two cars sped down the main road, passing several traffic lights. The minivan didn't stop, so Huo Juncheng gritted his teeth and ran a red light to catch up.
The minivan turned onto a shabby side road in the old city. There were no traffic lights or surveillance cameras on the road. Just as Huo Juncheng was about to catch up with the minivan, the door suddenly opened. A masked man in black leaned halfway out of the van.
Lin Yilan saw clearly what he was holding in his hand, her pupils dilated instantly, and she reached out and pressed Huo Juncheng's head down.
It's a gun! That man has a gun!
There was a deafening "bang"!
The car spun 360 degrees before coming to a stop in the middle of the road. The immense impact made it impossible to control the direction.
Huo Juncheng finally stepped on the brakes, and the first thing he did was to see if Lin Yilan was okay.
"Are you okay?"
Lin Yilan clutched her seatbelt tightly. Aside from feeling a little dizzy, she had no other reaction. She shook her head. "I'm fine, but Jenny... we can't seem to catch up."
