Chapter 270 Finding a Helper
Upon careful evaluation, the production team Wen Yu was in was considered a second or third-tier production; not large-scale, but not shabby either.
He has all the necessary equipment, and several A-list celebrities he's friends with came to visit the set recently.
But the director never imagined that he would encounter a character like Tu Chaoxi!
When the director received the message from the assistant director, he thought he had misread it.
But the next second, a gasp of surprise erupted from the dressing room!
He went outside and saw that the tall, blond young man was surrounded by people. Unlike his usual hot-tempered and direct personality on screen, he was now patiently taking pens and paper from everyone's hands.
He also solemnly reminded everyone: "Be careful, don't push."
An assistant announced loudly, "There are cakes and gift boxes outside; please feel free to take them."
Director: ? ? ?
The director stared at the two assistant directors, his face filled with shock.
Tu Chaoxi? ??
"He came to visit the set?? Whose set was he visiting???"
The next second, the assistant continued, "Thank you everyone for taking care of Teacher Wenyu during this time."
Director: ? ? ? ?
Hearing this?
Wen Yu, having received the news, also rushed out.
"Teacher Tu!"
Tu Chaoxi put down her pen and smiled familiarly at her: "Jiang Ye said you were filming here, so I came to see you. It's been two years since we last met, hasn't it?"
In one sentence, it is clear that the three people are close friends who have known each other for many years.
Wen Yu frowned and said in a low voice, "Teacher Tu, your leg isn't healed yet, why did you come over?"
She knew that Tu Chaoxi would come to help her deal with this trouble sooner or later, but she never expected it to be now.
"My leg is fine." Tu Chaoxi stopped smiling and quickly and sharply scanned the room. "I heard there's a young man surnamed Zhao who you've had quite a few scenes with. Where is he?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent.
The group of people looked at each other in bewilderment. If they still didn't know Tu Chaoxi's purpose at this point, they would have wasted their time in this industry!
Everyone knows what Wenyu has been going through on set recently, and they also know about her feud with Zhao Xing.
So Tu Chaoxi isn't just Wen Yu's friend, but also here today to avenge her?!
How can Wen Yu keep her mouth shut so tightly?!
The director rubbed his temples. This Zhao Xing was such a troublemaker.
He quickly went over, considering how to ease the tension.
After all, Tu Chaoxi's troublesome behavior was already well-known.
Just as he was about to speak, Tu Chaoxi noticed him and walked over to him, respectfully extending her hand.
"Hello, Director. I'm Tu Chaoxi. Just call me Xiao Tu."
The director suddenly got stuck.
"Well……"
Tu Chaoxi smiled amicably: "Excuse me, is Zhao Xing here? I don't see him."
The director inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. Tu Chaoxi's attitude was very clear: he was only going to cause trouble for Zhao Xing.
The director quickly explained, "He just left the production team."
"You've quit?"
Tu Chaoxi raised an eyebrow: "What a coincidence?"
He clearly didn't believe it and turned to another person for confirmation: "Did you just withdraw today?"
The assistant director felt a chill run down his spine when asked: "Yes, they just left."
Tu Chaoxi nodded in sudden realization: "Oh, I see. That was just my bad luck."
"In that case, Xiao Gao, go to the finance department. I'll cover the afternoon tea for the crew for the next month."
He glanced around and said loudly, "I'm sorry to have bothered you all today."
After the crowd had finally dispersed, Wen Yu hurried over, looking somewhat worried.
"Teacher Tu..."
"Don't panic, I've checked. This production team has a simple financial structure. If Zhao Xing takes the investment money with him, I'll make up for it for you. Who can't be a resource-backed star!"
Having withstood the test of time, Tu Chaoxi is now more flamboyant and unrestrained than before.
Wen Yu couldn't help but laugh and shook her head: "I'm not worried about that, I'm worried about you. We didn't clear the area just now, and if word gets out, it won't be good for you."
"You don't need to worry about the investment. Although Zhao Xing withdrew, his agency is quite generous. Or perhaps they value this movie and won't refund the money."
Tu Chaoxi immediately scoffed: "Are you afraid of that? I've been working my way up all this time precisely for..."
Halfway through his sentence, his eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly choked up.
He rose to this position initially to find his younger siblings, and later to provide them with the means to do whatever they wanted.
Since we can't take care of Tu Xiaomao now... it would be good to take care of a friend.
Seeing Wen Yu's hesitant expression, he immediately recovered: "You mean that idiot agency isn't withdrawing its investment?"
"So generous?"
Wen Yu nodded: "I just heard that's how it is."
"Alright, it's better that he's gone, saves me the trouble of dealing with him."
Tu Chaoxi rubbed her temples and swallowed the drowsiness that welled up inside her.
He hasn't slept well for two days, checking the list and negotiating with the organizer.
After pausing for a moment, he continued, "It's also my fault. I forced the show to be sold out back then. Netizens are constantly changing, and they didn't know about the relationships between us."
Initially, we were worried that another fake Tu Yao would appear and cause trouble in places they were unaware of.
In desperation, Tu Chaoxi had no choice but to ban the variety show across the entire internet in an effort to minimize public perception of Tu Yao.
He's used to acting rashly and impulsively, and he doesn't think things through.
"But it's good now. This news is probably trending now, so no one will dare to mess with you anymore."
Wen Yu hesitated for a moment when she saw his less-than-ideal expression.
In the past two days, many videos of Tu Chaoxi jumping off the stage that night have surfaced.
She had also watched those videos.
Although it wasn't obvious, she still recognized the shape of his mouth as he shouted the moment he jumped, based on some intuition.
"Teacher Tu, my sister..."
She couldn't resist asking.
Where did my sister go?
After the words were spoken, Tu Chaoxi seemed to be stumped and remained silent for a long time.
Wen Yu quickly added, "If it's inconvenient, then don't say it."
The next second, Tu Chaoxi shook her head and said in a deep voice, "...I don't know."
"……What?"
Tu Chaoxi lowered her eyes, unconsciously tugged at the corners of her lips, and repeated, "I don't know."
"To be honest, I don't know. Nan Ke, Lin Yue, Cheng Sangsang, Xu Bai... none of them know where she went."
Even after several days of fruitless searching, Tu Chaoxi began to wonder if she was hallucinating.
...
Meanwhile, Tu Yao had already arrived at the restaurant and booked a private room next door according to the room number sent by Cheng Sangsang.
Seeing that Xiaoyu hadn't replied for a long time, Tu Yao sent a message to her new business partner from that day.
I've arrived at the restaurant. Could you please contact me every five minutes if it's convenient?
Cheng Sangsang immediately replied: 【Okay!】
After receiving the message, Tu Yao went into the private room.
After replying to her, Cheng Sangsang jumped to the chat group to announce.
Cheng Sangsang (Revenge Version for Wen Yu): [Friends, Teacher Ma and I are doing something big!]
Xu Bai (King of Button Mushrooms): [To avenge Sister Wen Yu?]
Jiang Ye (in sync): [To avenge Wen Yu?]
Ma Zhiyuan also slowly appeared: "[You two have gotten smarter lately.]"
Jiang Ye: [……]
Cheng Sangsang: [No, to be precise, we found an accomplice to help us avenge Sister Wenyu!]
...
In the crew's dressing room, Tu Chaoxi's expression visibly darkened, but she forced herself to cheer up.
"Alright, if you're all done here, I'll be going now."
"I have other things to do, and I probably won't be leaving here for a while. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."
With no leads found in the list, Lin Yue and Nan Ke are currently reviewing surveillance footage near the music festival venue.
This is truly like finding a needle in a haystack.
Even if it's like finding a needle in a haystack, we still have to find out the truth!
Seeing his tired expression, Wen Yu wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but her phone suddenly started vibrating incessantly.
She clicked on it and saw that the group chat had become lively again.
Tu Chaoxi knew what was going on as soon as she heard the commotion.
"Ma Zhiyuan or Cheng Sangsang?"
Hearing this, she said helplessly, "It's Teacher Ma and Sang Sang."
Tu Chaoxi scoffed, "That's it, those two are noisier than dogs when they're together."
Hearing this, she suppressed a laugh: "Sangsang told Teacher Ma that she found someone to help me get revenge."
Tu Chaoxi's brow twitched, and she casually asked, "Who did you contact?"
