Chapter 170 The Evil and Pampered Miss 9: Seizing Luck
After a few days of rest, the crew started filming again.
Yan Mi doesn’t have many scenes left, and her and Cheng Qing’s performances are as good as ever, and the crew members are very polite to them.
Before, everyone only knew that Yan Mi was a big investment boss, but they didn't know that the Yan family was behind her. Now that they know, everyone in the crew is very cautious, fearing that they will be fired if they make Yan Mi unhappy.
The male lead, Xing Weihou, did not go to the haunted house last time and did not know what happened. He only knew that after he came back from accompanying Cheng Shouxi, the entire crew looked different.
It seems like everyone is ignoring him. He is the male lead of this drama, yet these people are ignoring him.
Although Xing Weihou was unhappy, he couldn't show it because of his personality. Instead, he asked the staff indirectly, "Why did you suddenly take so many days off last time? Won't the investor say anything if the construction was delayed?"
The staff member politely replied, "No, our boss is still acting, and we've all been on paid leave for a while now. I'd love to have a few more days off."
"What happened?" Xing Weihou was shocked by the generosity of the investor.
"It's nothing. Teacher Xing will be your turn soon. You haven't changed your clothes yet." The staff member immediately shut up when asked about this.
Xing Weihou always felt that he was the only one in the crew who didn't fit in, and he became more and more curious about what had happened some time ago.
The staff recalled the Yan family's sudden bravery and fearlessness at that time. The Yan family also asked them to keep it a secret and gave each of them a talisman to ensure their safety.
The talisman of the Yan family's Taoist priest is beyond the reach of ordinary people, but they obtained it so easily. The Yan family's request was that everyone should be united in facing the outside world. Only a fool would tell Xing Weihou about this.
Xing Weihou was annoyed all day on the crew. It started with no one paying attention to him, then he was accidentally injured while hanging on the wire, and he kept making mistakes while acting. This series of small accidents made him angry.
During lunch break, Cheng Shouxi sent him a message, and Xing Weihou suppressed his anger and went to find her.
"Shouxi, what do you want from me?" Xing Weihou forced a smile.
Cheng Shouxi kept looking at their crew, "Is your crew okay?"
"Why do you ask?" Xing Weixing was a little confused. How did Cheng Shouxi know that something happened in their crew?
Cheng Shouxi was feeling anxious and uneasy. He deliberately laughed it off and said, "I heard that your crew took a few days off, so I was just asking if anything happened."
"Nothing, do you want to visit our crew?" he asked.
Cheng Shouxi shook his head, his face tense. "I won't go. I want to know how Cheng Qing from your crew is doing. Is she okay?"
"She's fine, why are you suddenly concerned about her?" Xing Weihou was even more confused. Didn't Cheng Shouxi have a grudge against Cheng Qing? Why did he take the initiative to care about the other party?
Cheng Shouxi's face changed nervously, and she bit her lips tightly. She spit out a few words from between her teeth, "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay."
Xing Weihou wanted to tell her about his troubles, but Cheng Shouxi said, "I have something else to do on the set. I'll leave first."
Today, it seemed like everyone was against him. Xing Weihou was furious, but he had no place to vent.
After finishing a day's filming and wrapping up work at night, in order to celebrate everyone's escape from death, Liu Donghe took the initiative to pay for dinner for everyone in the crew.
Yan Mi and Cheng Qing were seated at the main table. Liu Donghe began his speech. "Everyone has resumed filming. This time it will definitely go smoothly. Let's toast!"
Everyone was making a lot of noise, and Yan Mi was persuaded to drink a few glasses of wine.
She had a weak constitution to begin with, and she got drunk after just a few drinks. Cheng Qing also drank, but she had a good alcohol tolerance.
She felt a weight on her shoulder, and when she tilted her head, she saw that Yan Mi had fallen asleep soundly. With a full forehead and thick eyelashes, she looked more like a good girl.
Cheng Qing put Yan Mi to sleep on the sofa, paying attention to the movements of others while taking care of Yan Mi.
Not long after, she noticed that the flow of time around her slowed down, and a blurry figure appeared beside Yan Mi. She instantly became alert, but the next second Yan Mi disappeared, leaving only a trace of the ghostly aura she was familiar with.
Cheng Qing curled his lips in disdain. Was he afraid that she would chase him?
Three seconds later, the flow of time returned to normal. The restaurant was still bustling with activity, and no one seemed to have noticed that Yan Mi was gone.
In the hotel room, Yan Mi slept peacefully on the bed, snoring gradually becoming louder.
Jiang Buxun chuckled and his figure emerged.
He lay beside Yan Mi, and Yan Mi took the initiative to hug him.
The smell of alcohol lingered around his nose, although it was only faint, but looking at Yan Mi's obedient sleeping posture, he knew that she could not bear it.
Jiang Buxun put his arm around Yan Mi's waist and moved her close to him. He waved his free hand into the air. He decided to teach Cheng Qing a lesson and make her look down on good people.
On the other side, Cheng Qing looked at the ghost energy coming towards her, reached out and pinched it, and then she purified the ghost energy provocatively.
Jiang Buxun sneered. He would never be kind enough to help Cheng Qing solve the problem next time.
This ungrateful bad guy from another world!
The next day, Yan Mi was still dizzy when she woke up. Fortunately, she didn't have any scenes to shoot that day, so she could rest for another day.
She looked around and realized she was back at the hotel.
She guessed that it was Cheng Qing who sent her back.
She had nothing to do, so she practiced with Jiang Buxun's things while watching Cheng Qing perform.
Cheng Qing has excellent acting skills. If there were a better script, she would definitely become extremely popular.
Yan Mi looked at Xing Weihou, who was acting with Cheng Qing, but found that he had something more interesting.
There seemed to be a faint thread behind him connected to his chest, but it might not be a thread. Yan Mi had never encountered such a thing before, and he didn't know what was going on.
She was so fascinated by Xing Weihou that people thought she also had high hopes for him, and she even gave him a few close-ups.
During the break, Yan Mi and Cheng Qing gathered together to discuss, "Can you see a thread on Xing Weihou's body?"
Cheng Qing looked over, even opened his eyes to look, but couldn't see anything. "What? I didn't see it."
"There seems to be a line in his chest, and there is no end in sight." Yan Mi pointed along the line until it reached the other side of the sky.
Cheng Qing's expression suddenly grew serious, and he continued to speak secretly to Yan Mi, "What kind of line did you see?"
"It's white and transparent, with a little bit of glitter around it. It looks very beautiful." Yan Mi nodded vigorously.
Cheng Qing's face turned pale, "You didn't lie to me?"
"Why would I lie to you? I really saw it." Yan Mi was sad. Cheng Qing actually questioned her.
"That's the thread that can seize luck. I've only seen this kind of thing in a fragment of a book. It's impossible for such a thing to exist now." Cheng Qing said.
This matter is particularly serious and she must take it seriously.
Yan Mi was also surprised. "I couldn't see before, but now I can see. Am I also affected by the Qi?"
She turned her head to look behind her, but there was nothing.
"Look at the others." Cheng Qing pointed at them one by one, but none of them were there.
And when Yan Mi turned her head, she saw that line on Cheng Qing.
"You." She pointed at Cheng Qing.
Cheng Qing was stunned and pointed at herself in disbelief, "Me?"
Yan Mi nodded, "But the thread on your body has dimmed and seems to be about to break, unlike Xing Weihou's."
Cheng Qing suddenly fell silent. In an instant, she figured out a lot of things. No wonder she was so unlucky some time ago and couldn't make any progress in her cultivation. It turned out that this kind of thing was causing trouble.
She must find out who dares to use this secret method.
"What will happen if your luck is sucked away?" Yan Mi asked curiously.
"Those whose luck is sucked away will suffer misfortune at best, or even the destruction of their families at worst. But those who seize the luck will prosper and soar to the top." Cheng Qing explained briefly.
Yan Mi looked at Xing Weihou with pity in his eyes.
Xing Weihou's resting place was not far from Yan Mi and the others. Ever since he sat down, he had noticed that the two of them were teasing him in front of him and pointing at him. The mineral water bottle in his hand was almost twisted into a dough twist by him.
Xing Weihou waited for a long time, but Yan Mi and the others had stopped discussing and no one knew what they were discussing now.
He just thought that the entire crew was crazy.
During the filming, Yan Mi kept observing Xing Weihou and found that he was indeed unlucky.
Recently, the hot searches are all about him and Cheng Shouxi, but his are about bad things, while Cheng Shouxi's are about all kinds of good marketing.
Yan Mi watched with great interest.
Xing Weihou and Cheng Shouxi have such a good relationship, they must be very happy to be on the hot search together.
When she saw Xing Weihou again a few days later, she found that there was dark circles under his eyes, he was mentally exhausted, and he looked listless, as if he had aged several years.
Liu Donghe was extremely dissatisfied with his condition. "What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you to have a good rest and stop being on the trending searches? Yet, you keep getting photographed by paparazzi."
Xing Weihou never expected that he would encounter paparazzi wherever he went. Recently, he has been dreaming of strange and scary things every time he sleeps, and he can't rest well even if he wants to.
Yan Mi felt that she couldn't go on like this. Maybe the person who stole her luck behind the scenes hadn't been found yet, and the drama she invested in would be a complete loss.
It just so happened that she had finished all her scenes and filming, so she had time to investigate the matter.
She was accompanied by several masters from the Yan family, and after hearing about this matter, the masters also took it seriously.
Not long after Yan Mi was attacked, he actually experienced the incident of his luck being absorbed. Judging from these things, something big might happen in the future.
Only Yan Mi could see that line. The group was led by Yan Mi, and the heavenly masters flew in the direction Yan Mi pointed.
Until they chased to the Cheng family's territory.
"Miss, are you seeing things? Is it really here?" Zhao Wulan asked.
In Yan Mi's eyes, the two lines had indeed penetrated deep into the Cheng family's heartland. The evidence was irrefutable, otherwise she would not have wanted to admit it.
"This, this matter can only be investigated to this point. Afterwards, we will report it to the head of the family, and the head of the family will make the final decision." Zhao Wulan and the Taoist priests who were traveling with him all knew that this matter was extremely tricky.
"The person whose luck has been sucked away is about to die, and it is still up to grandpa to make the decision? Do you have any way to help that person?" Yan Mi asked.
Zhao Wulan looked at the others and said, "We can't do anything, maybe that gentleman will have a solution."
Yan Mi sighed. He had finally found this place, but was delayed because the other party was also wealthy and powerful and could not be easily shaken.
"I will ask. During this time, please ask Mr. Zhao and the other Heavenly Masters to help take care of that person, otherwise he might die." Yan Mi said.
"Yes, I will take care of this matter." said Master Qin Runtian who was traveling with Zhao Wulan.
