Chapter 626: Yuan Heng’s Here to Seek Revenge!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Chan contemptuously glanced at Li Jingran with a smile. The way she saw it, Li Jingran must be feeling guilty about a certain somebody’s death and was paid a visit by the netherworld in the middle of the night.

People should not do bad because karma was bound to hit back.

The crowd merely watched as breakfast was served in the presidential suite during their way out. They soon forgot all about it.

Su Ruowan, on the other hand, was hung up about it and itching to find out about the person staying there as well as the handsome young man.

There were bodyguards keeping watch at the presidential suite since the day they checked in. No one was allowed close.

After finishing off the breakfast prepared by the chefs from Greece, Shen Xi changed into regular clothes and blended into the production crew. While no one was looking, she dropped her latest developed drug into Li Jingran’s drink.

Li Jingran was in a better mood than yesterday, albeit her mental state was a lot worse. She appeared rather weary and haggard, but the look suited her role as Ning Pei who was suffering a physical and mental ordeal at her late stage of cancer.

As the director, Hu Zheng, superficially showed his concern for his cast, he was also

pleased with her condition. Li Jingran could save the makeup since she looked sickly enough.

For Li Jingran’s scene today, she would be beyond devastated when her ex-husband, who forced her to sign the divorce papers, came together with his mistress-turned-wife to pay her a visit. Unable to get over the overwhelming emotions, she jumped off from the second floor and fell to her death in front of her ex-husband and his new wife.

The dressing room.

The stylist and makeup artist were painting Li Jingran’s face. It was a look for when she hit the ground to her death.

Reflecting on the mirror was the woman’s blood-stained face and disheveled hair.

Li Jingran shut her eyes, compelling herself not to look. She clenched her fist tightly, nearly drawing blood while regret sank in.

She regretted it. Why did she accept a role in the TV series? Why did she have to suffer the agony and insult here!

With the makeup done, it was time to roll the tape and thus, began repeated barks to cut.

Once.

Twice.

Thrice.

Ten times.

Twenty times.

Li Jingran was about to lose it. As rage grimaced her face, she glared at Hu Zheng. “Mr. Hu, what’s the meaning of this?”

Her sudden reaction sent chills down Hu Zheng’s spine. Li Jingran looked over with a bloody face looking much like an evil spirit. He explained, “Mr. Cloud Seven said your emotions aren’t quite there. You should reflect despair and hatred in your eyes. It’s the kind of resentment that would not cease even in the afterlife and make you come back to haunt the cheating couple.”

The frustration was eating Li Jingran up inside. She was on the verge of losing her mind after repeating the scene of herself jumping off the building to commit suicide. It did nothing but replayed the scene of Yuan Heng’s death in her mind.

These long-forgotten mental pictures and the joy she felt back then grew clearer and clearer. As if under a spell, the scene kept looming before her eyes.

Yuan Heng’s bitter, devastated, and turning-in-grave eyes were chipping away Li Jingran’s sanity, leaving her head in disarray.

“Ms. Li, put more effort into it. You should know that Mr. Cloud Seven wants nothing less than perfection.” Hu Zheng smiled obsequiously at her.

“Fine.” Li Jingran hissed through clenched teeth.

Throughout her acting career, Li Jingran had never felt so defeated and insulted. She would pay Cloud Seven back the insult in folds.

Li Jingran had a meltdown.

Nevertheless, many onlookers, such as Lin Chan, were happy to see Li Jingran make a fool of herself.

There were a lot of rookie actors on Cloud Seven’s latest TV series. They were looking forward to Ms. Li the Film Star’s performance but were let down by her constant retakes. They believed Li Jingran was not herself today and unable to immerse into the role.

Su Ruowan was embarrassed. Hearing the people around her whispering about Li Jingran’s bad acting, she resentfully glanced at the woman on set.

She thought she could count on Li Jingran to become a sought-after elite and coveted by her peers. Yet now, Li Jingran was bringing shame to her name.

Back in the writer’s room, Shen Xi was helping herself to some cakes as she enjoyed Li Jingran’s discomfiture. Shen Xi could feel Li Jingran crumbling to pieces in despair and hatred behind the camera. Surely, Li Jingran must harbor animosity for her and Yuan Heng.

Nevertheless, the progress of the shoot could not be held up. With Li Jingran falling apart, she uttered, “Mr. Hu, the take is a pass.”

Hu Zheng then released Li Jingran of her misery.

Having lost all her patience, Li Jingran could not be bothered to put up the façade. She headed back to the hotel after completing her two scenes for the day.

Li Jingran returned to get a good rest after knowing the current situation would do no good to her. After taking two sleeping pills, she lay in bed and soon groggily drifted into slumber.

In her dreams, she saw Yuan Heng again. It was minutes before her death as she stood on the second floor, looking at Li Jingran with those dead eyes. Yuan Heng leaped to her death and dropped to the ground before facing Li Jingran with her mangled face.

Feeling as though she was strangled, Li Jingran started to gasp for air. The troubled breathing saw her put up a struggle and opened her eyes wide to a bloody face.

“Ah!”

Li Jingran shrieked. As if she had gone mad, she jumped out of bed and smashed everything she touched. She was throwing things into the air.

Once everything in the room was destroyed, Li Jingran shrunk into a corner of the room and stared wickedly in a direction. Her eyes reflected malice. “Get lost, Yuan Heng. Get out of here!”

However, there was nothing in the direction she was glaring at.

It took quite a while before Li Jingran got ahold of herself. The broken pieces under her feet cut her everywhere, causing blood to spill. Rattled, she scurried to find her phone and dialed Su Yi’s number. She broke down and cried, “Honey, I don’t want to act in the TV series. I want to terminate the contract. Come and pick me up now.”

On the other end of the line, Su Yi was heard snappishly scoffing. “You were the one who signed the contract and now you want to terminate the contract? I’m swamped with work to deal with you. I don’t care how you do it, but you better finish off what you started.”

“How can you do this to me, Su Yi?” Li Jingran hysterically shouted. With bloodshot eyes, she glared at an empty space. “I saw Yuan Heng. Yuan Heng’s here to seek revenge! She’s coming after us..”
