As soon as Ruan Shenglin spoke, Chi Shuyan finally noticed the two of them. At the same time, Ruan Shenglin’s appearance reminded her of the Buddha pendant which Qin Qing had given to the Ruan family. She curled her lip and was about to say that she wasn’t close to Qin Qing.
Feng Yuanlin beat her to it. “Not close. That Miss Qin is my ex-girlfriend, but because she cheated on me, I broke up with her and now have nothing to do with her!”
Feng Yuanlin didn’t give Qin Qing any face at all. His words were much more heartless than anything Chi Shuyan could have said. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but look at him askance. Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming were also stupefied. Their eyes widened and they gaped as their minds went blank.
Chi Shuyan naturally didn’t know that Brother Feng’s gentlemanly demeanor had completely changed now that he had a new understanding of how thick-skinned Qin Qing was. In order to prevent that woman from using his and Shuyan’s names to cause trouble, Feng Yuanlin cut off her escape route.
Who knew when Qin Qing would use her relationship with him and Shuyan’s name to get close to this Film Emperor Ruan in front of him? He could tolerate Qin Qing screwing him over, but he absolutely couldn’t tolerate her screwing Shuyan over and using her.
Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun didn’t expect things to turn into a melodrama like this. However, thinking about Qin Qing’s character, it made too much sense for her to have an affair for the sake of her future.
At the same time, Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun could tell from the man’s attitude that he really didn’t have the slightest bit of feelings for his ex-girlfriend. That was good. Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun heaved sighs of relief.
But before they could completely relax, Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun thought of the Buddha statue just now, and fear instantly flashed across their calm faces. Ruan Shenglin was the first to hurriedly ask Chi Shuyan, “Master… Master, did you see that Buddha statue just now? It looks just like the one in my house. Is there a problem with this village?”
Ruan Shenglin’s question hit the nail on the head. Yang Kun also looked at her anxiously and fearfully.
What happened with Qin Qing just now almost made Feng Yuanlin and the others forget the main point. It just so happened that Feng Yuanlin wanted to ask Shuyan this, so he immediately stared intently at her.
Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to say much to Ruan Shenglin and the others. She herself hadn’t figured out what was going on in this village, so she couldn’t say much to them. However, she was certain that there was indeed something strange about this village. Outsiders should avoid the place as much as possible. As for those who had come, they should leave as soon as possible.
Chi Shuyan made her meaning clear. Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun’s faces changed drastically, and the fear on their faces grew even more obvious. Their faces turned especially pale.
Yang Kun trembled and couldn’t help but ask hurriedly, “What… what’s going on? Master… Master Chi, what… what’s wrong with this village? Don’t… scare me. My nerves can’t take it!”
Chi Shuyan just said, “Film Emperor Ruan, Manager Yang, let me give you a piece of advice: Leave this village as soon as possible. There’s something wrong with this village and it isn’t suitable for filming. Also, don’t call me Master here!”
After listening to Master Chi’s words, Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun were even more afraid, and they choked with all sorts of horrifying thoughts, especially Ruan Shenglin. If it were in the past, he might have had doubts, but now, when he thought of the Master’s methods, he couldn’t doubt it at all. There really was something strange about this village.
Thinking this, Ruan Shenglin’s heart shook. He immediately made a decision. No matter what, he had to persuade Director Wang to leave the village immediately. He would rather choose a more remote place to film than stay here.
What he was most glad about now was that Master Chi was still around. Only then did some of the fear in his heart fade. Otherwise, if something really happened to them in this village, he really didn’t know what he would do.
Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun immediately found an excuse to leave, probably to go and persuade the director.
Chi Shuyan stared at their departing backs and relaxed. It would be best if they could leave this village. If they didn’t… Chi Shuyan’s eyes flashed. For some reason, this village gave her a very strange feeling. What puzzled her even more was that it gave her a sense of extreme unease and danger, and even panic.
She had always believed in her intuition.
After listening to Shuyan, Qi Zhenbai and Feng Yuanlin’s faces were a bit solemn. As for Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming, who had just come back to their senses, they were suddenly scared out of their wits and completely forgot to gossip about their Director Feng breaking up with Qin Qing. They hurriedly asked in horror, “Miss…”
Chi Shuyan said, “Call me by my name!” There was a rare hint of toughness in her tone. She didn’t want Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming to call her Miss Chi every day – it simply made her feel stifled. Hadn’t these two brats agreed to call her by her name before? Chi Shuyan felt very helpless.
Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming didn’t dare reply at all. Instead, they looked at the taciturn and aloof President Qi again. In the end, Qi Zhenbai slapped the table and decided, “Call her Sister-in-law!” His tone was filled with command.
“Sister-in-law!” Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming immediately understood and called her Sister-in-law.
Before Chi Shuyan could nitpick, Feng Yuanlin immediately echoed, “That’s a good address!” After saying that, he gloated and said to Shuyan, “Shuyan, these two brats don’t know how to be flexible. Forgive them!”
As he spoke, he winked at Shuyan, disrupting her solemn mood. She thought for a moment, but couldn’t think of any other way they could address her, so she gave up.
“I’ve decided to stay for the night. We’ll talk about the rest tomorrow. Brother Feng, do you want to stay or let Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming stay?”
