With this incident, filming could no longer continue, and Director Chen's face was filled with worry.
"Stop everything and find out where the bullets came from. Everyone here, don't leave yet. The props team has had the most contact with the bullets, so tell me how the props were prepared?"
Qin Xuan helped Ye Zhizhou sit down to rest.
"Ye Zhizhou, are you alright? I heard you were almost shot, so I rushed over."
Xu Jingchen jogged over, his face full of tension.
A hint of displeasure flashed in Qin Xuan's eyes. What did Ye Zhizhou's injury have to do with him?
However, he didn't show it, since they were on set.
"I'm fine. There was a problem with the props; we're investigating it now."
Ye Zhizhou explained to Xu Jingchen absentmindedly.
"Some people are such troublemakers. Just because of her, we've all wasted so much time. Couldn't we have just finished filming first?"
Li Zixi had just finished being questioned when she saw Xu Jingchen's attentive manner and couldn't help but come over and make sarcastic remarks.
"Zixi, you should say less. Those are bullets." Yan Bing couldn't stand it anymore and said a few words in Ye Zhizhou's defense.
Li Zixi rolled her eyes at her, "This kind of thing rarely happens in Director Chen's crew. She's such a troublemaker, and she won't let anyone talk about her."
She had barely finished speaking when she noticed a tall shadow in front of her. She looked up and saw Qin Xuan staring at her with icy eyes.
His eyebrows and eyes are sharp and angular; he would be even more handsome if he weren't angry.
"Please apologize to my girlfriend."
Qin Xuan composed himself and demanded an apology from Li Zixi in a firm and resounding manner.
Li Zixi was taken aback at first, then chuckled softly, "Did I say something wrong? Why should I apologize to her?"
Qin Xuan frowned slightly; Li Zixi was far too arrogant.
He grabbed Li Zixi's arm with all his might.
"Apologize."
Li Zixi wasn't scared at all, but what Qin Xuan looked into was terrifying.
She had a feeling that Qin Xuan would definitely not let her off the hook if she didn't apologize.
"Ye Zhizhou, what I just said was just casual talk, please don't take it to heart."
Ye Zhizhou pursed his lips, "Sorry, I remember every word you said very clearly. I'll pay you back slowly later."
Li Zixi was taken aback. Who would take a few words to heart? This is too petty!
"I've already apologized, shouldn't you let it go now?"
She didn't dare look at Qin Xuan at all.
Qin Xuan released her hand and returned to Ye Zhizhou's side expressionlessly.
About an hour later, the props team leader finally found the reason.
"Director Chen, there was a temporary worker in the crew. He said he dropped out of junior high school and was unemployed, so he wanted to find something to do. I felt sorry for him and let him join the crew. He was the one who prepared the bullets last night, but I just found out he's gone."
Director Chen frowned. "So it really is our responsibility. You're usually a very clear-headed person, how could you make such a blunder at a time like this? Find that temporary worker for me right now!"
The person in charge bowed and scraped, then hurriedly ran off to find someone.
Director Chen told Qin Xuan about the situation, hoping that Qin Xuan wouldn't be too angry.
"Director Chen, I don't think you would cover up something that involves life and death. Once the person is found, I will hire a lawyer to handle it."
Qin Xuan's tone returned to calm, but he was actually very angry. His good upbringing allowed him to hold back his anger.
Director Chen sighed, "Alright, how is Ye Zhizhou? We'll use a stunt double for Ye Zhizhou's car scene. I've already found one for her."
After this incident, it would be inappropriate to have Ye Zhizhou film car scenes again.
"Director Chen is very thoughtful. She's alright, so I'll take her back to her room first."
Qin Xuan spoke very politely, but Director Chen inexplicably felt a sense of pressure.
"Xiao Zhou, let's go up."
Ye Zhizhou got up and followed Qin Xuan upstairs. It wasn't that she was scared; she was wondering who was specifically targeting her like this.
She needs some time to organize her thoughts.
Inside the room, Qin Xuan boiled water for Ye Zhizhou. "Still thinking about what happened earlier?"
Ye Zhizhou nodded. "I've looked through the files of most of the actors in the crew. They don't seem to have any connection, so there shouldn't be any problems. The key issue is this temporary worker."
"The temporary workers have already been searched for; once they're found, everything will be clear."
Qin Xuan placed his fingers interlaced on the table, secretly vowing that no matter who it was or what their purpose was, he would make that person pay the price.
"This shouldn't be a coincidence. If it were, my gun shouldn't have malfunctioned first."
The male lead and the second male lead were the ones who filmed the car scene first, but their guns didn't malfunction at the time.
This shows that the temporary worker, who was very familiar with the filming schedule, deliberately tampered with Ye Zhizhou's gun.
The temperature around Qin Xuan suddenly dropped several degrees.
"I will personally send him to prison."
This wasn't the first time Ye Zhizhou had seen Qin Xuan so serious, but every time, she was moved by Qin Xuan's concern for her.
As the two were discussing, Ye Qian called.
Since filming the variety show last time, he has also been filming a movie, so he has been very busy and hasn't been able to say much to his sister.
As soon as he had some free time, he called Ye Zhizhou.
"Zhouzhou, how does it feel to work with Yong's for the first time? If there's anything you're not used to, be sure to tell me. I know their boss very well."
In the video call, Ye Qian was wearing ancient costume, so it seems that he is filming another period drama this time.
Just as Ye Zhizhou was about to speak, Qin Xuan took the phone and shoved his face into the camera lens.
"During the car scene just now, the props team prepared real bullets, and Xiaozhou almost couldn't dodge them."
He knew that Ye Zhizhou wouldn't tell Ye Qian about this on his own initiative, so he decided to strike first.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qian was completely stunned and couldn't sit still in the dressing room.
"Is the production crew really this unreliable? I'm calling their boss right now!"
He started yelling in the dressing room. He only had one younger sister, who almost got injured while filming. If the boss of Yongshi didn't give him an explanation, there would be no way to end this.
The people in the dressing room were drawn to his voice and looked over. Apart from the male lead Ye Qian, who was a big star, everyone else in the crew was a newcomer and didn't dare to make a sound.
"Wait a minute, the crew has already found out that it was done by a temporary worker, but they haven't found that worker yet. You don't need to be so agitated."
Qin Xuan told Ye Qian that he just wanted him to know Ye Zhizhou's situation. Seeing how agitated Ye Qian was, he added a sentence to calm him down a bit.
However, Ye Qian was still not satisfied. He hung up the phone while cursing and then called the chairman of Yongshi Film Group.
"Old Ye, you haven't contacted me in ages. You finally remembered your brother Yu?"
Yu Wenxuan, chairman of Yongshi Film Industry, is Ye Qian's senior from school and has a good relationship with Ye Qian.
