Chapter 141 Leaving the Film and Television City
In fact, Yi Jie could already roughly guess what Fang Jun had been through, and this might be what prompted him to commit murder.
"In the first two years, I was just a minor supporting role, inconspicuous, and my monthly salary was pitifully low, but I was very happy. When I was on the crew, I felt that I was extremely dazzling and seemed to have endless energy.
Later, as I gained more experience, I was gradually noticed and more people knew me. However, because of my appearance, most of the roles assigned to me were eunuchs, actors, and prostitutes. It's ridiculous, right? I could obviously play other roles and better than those people, but I still didn't have good opportunities.
It was during that period that Liu Liang took the initiative to contact me. He was considered a group leader with relatively heavy say here, and everyone respected him very much. Liu Liang said that if he took me to a drinking party, there might be more opportunities. I knew that socializing was common in the entertainment industry, so I went with him.
I was drugged that night, and then…” The veins on Fang Jun’s neck popped out, and he clutched the seat tightly with both hands, looking extremely painful.
"I don't even know who assaulted me, I just know that Liu Liang told me to cooperate and not struggle in vain, and that if I obeyed he would give me good resources.
To them, I was just like an ant, which could be easily strangled to death. Maybe I was too timid at the time, or maybe I had some expectations about what I could get in exchange for my body. I swallowed these humiliations, which was also a disguised form of degradation. Anyway, I would never get married in my life, so I might as well get another chance.
Liu Liang gradually gave me some outstanding extras with good characterizations. I restrained myself from thinking about those dirty things and just focused on acting.
Then I shared an apartment with Siyu. She is a very warm girl and she healed me to a certain extent. I am actually very grateful to her.
This year Liu Liang no longer recommends resources to me. I heard that he has found a new replacement. I think that’s a good thing. Every time I trade with him, I feel disgusted. I think I am too arrogant and have a high opinion of myself. In fact, I have no talent at all, otherwise I would not have been unable to make a name for myself this year and not been noticed by any director.
If I hadn't learned that news some time ago, I would have probably been fooled by him all my life.
A director who had worked with me probably couldn't bear it and forwarded me the photos and chats that Liu Liang sent him. You can probably guess what they were about. It was then that I understood why every time I went to the crew, the upper-level staff kept their distance from me, and why no matter how well I performed or how hard I worked, it was all ineffective, because in their eyes I was a dirty and lowly existence.
I ran to his house to argue with him, and his disdainful look almost shattered me, as if I was about to fall into endless darkness. But he was not satisfied with this. He was disgusted by my provocation and wanted to send my private photos to a group of people. It was at that moment that I hated him so much, and so I killed him.
Later, I hid the body, decomposed it, and drained the blood. To be honest, I was not afraid at all when doing these things. I even felt happy. Maybe I have a demon gene in my nature. When Siyu asked me about the water problem, I realized that I had committed a heinous crime. I vented some of my resentment and hatred on her. It was normal for her to be afraid. Until today, she said she wanted to move away. I knew I couldn't go on like this, otherwise I would really become a monster and everyone would stay away from me.
I know that I can't cover up my crimes for long. Seeing your abnormality, I just go with the flow. It might be easier to be freed sooner. I'm not saying this to seek forgiveness, because I know I'm not completely innocent. If I was wrong, I was wrong. There's nothing to defend. But there are still many people who have not made any mistakes and are still suffering. If I can, I hope that one day someone will speak up for them, so that at least they won't end up like me."
The sound of sirens came closer and closer. Fang Jun finished speaking and smiled with relief. "My pick-up person is here. I have a lot of classic DVDs in my room. Siyu has always liked them. If she doesn't mind after knowing the truth, let her take them away."
Yi Jie just watched Fang Jun take his own initiative and walk step by step towards the police car that stopped under the flashing lights. He was handcuffed by the police. Before leaving, Fang Jun turned around and gave Yi Jie the most relaxed smile she had ever seen today. Perhaps the punishment that a believer suffered after confession was also redemption for him.
Yi Jie silently left the place where the crowd was gathering, and went to meet Pei Yanan and the others downstairs of the residential building.
Even before I got close, I could see the bad looks on Pei Yanan and He Chengan's faces.
"The police are collecting evidence upstairs, so we'll come down first. I shouldn't have eaten too much tonight. I almost vomited." Pei Yanan leaned over and complained to Yi Jie with a pout.
"Thank you for your hard work. He turned himself in voluntarily." Yi Jie hugged Pei Yanan and whispered.
"What's wrong?" He Chengan saw that Yi Jie was not in good condition and asked with concern.
"I'll tell you later. Let's go find Huang Siyu first." Yi Jie answered in a muffled voice. She didn't know how to describe Fang Jun's experience. She felt sorry for his misfortune and angry at his lack of resistance.
"Okay, let's help Huang Siyu move early, and then we'll go back to rest." Pei Yanan touched Yi Jie's hair and spoke softly like coaxing a child, and Yi Jie hugged him tighter.
The three waited for the police to collect evidence before going to find Huang Siyu.
Huang Siyu was sitting alone, bored, drinking juice and daydreaming. She was a little surprised to see Yi Jie and her assistant and bodyguard coming over.
Later she didn't have the heart to think about anything else because Yi Jie simply told her the whole story.
Huang Siyu covered her mouth and could not say a word for a long time. Tears fell down, she was heartbroken and shocked. Fang Jun, him? How could he kill someone! And she, who had lived with him for so long, had never discovered that her friend had been in purgatory. If she had noticed it earlier, would everything be different? It seemed that Fang Jun treated her as a friend, but she did not really care about how Fang Jun was doing. She only looked at the surface and could abandon this friendship.
Huang Siyu completed the final sorting as if she had left her soul. When she moved the things onto the truck, Yi Jie packed Fang Jun's collection of DVDs and handed them to her.
"He said he hopes you won't despise them, because they will all belong to you in the future."
Flipping through the discs one by one, there were many that the two of them had watched together, including silent films from the old times, dubbed films, and high-quality art films that had not been released in China. Each one was carefully collected by Fang Jun, as this was his biggest hobby besides acting.
Now, the treasure that she once coveted was in Huang Siyu's hands, but she felt that it weighed a thousand pounds, and she squatted on the ground holding the box and cried bitterly. Without interrupting her, Yi Jie apologized and paid some labor fees to the moving masters, asking them to wait for a while.
When they got home, it was already early morning. Huang Siyu's eyes were swollen like walnuts. Yi Jie and Pei Yanan slept together and gave their bed to her.
"Have a good sleep. You're tired after a long day." Yi Jie put a cup of hot water on the bedside of Huang Siyu and said softly.
"I don't hate him, I understand him."
"I know."
Huang Siyu buried herself in the quilt and stopped talking. Looking at her slightly trembling back, Yi Jie sighed inaudibly, closed the door and left the room. Some pains take time to heal.
When they returned to Pei Yanan's room, He Chengan was also there. Yi Jie told her everything Fang Jun had said to her today, and everyone felt very heavy-hearted.
"I will communicate with the police and get to the bottom of all the messy activities at the film and television city. No one can say anything about it." He Cheng'an said with a frown.
"That's what I planned. We had to put pressure on them. The Eagle Team was also monitoring them at all times to prevent any fish from slipping through the net. However, the darkness of this entertainment industry was seen earlier than I thought."
"Don't be afraid, let's go through it together! The three of us have experienced gunfire and rain of bullets, so we are not afraid of this small entertainment industry." Pei Yanan put his arms around the two men's shoulders and spoke proudly.
"We can't let our guard down either. It's easier to avoid an open attack than a hidden one. We are all straightforward in the military camp. We are not familiar with the twists and turns of the entertainment industry. We might fall into the ditch if we are not careful. No, Xiao Jie, your agent must be strict and must not be a half-baked one. I will use my connections to ask for a reliable candidate now." He Chengan stood up anxiously.
"Oh, Brother He, no need to ask. When I decided to set up a studio, many people recommended it to me. I was just waiting to make a decision during this trip to Beijing." Yi Jie grabbed him.
He Chengan slapped his head after realizing it belatedly. "That's right. With so many leaders watching, I don't need to worry about it. So their recommendation must be correct. We can just pick the most suitable one when the time comes."
After briefly discussing the itinerary after arriving in Beijing, the three of them washed up and rested. After tossing and turning all night, they were all a little tired.
On the day when Yi Jie and the other two left the film and television city, Huang Siyu was still in a very low mood.
"Fang Jun will probably not be sentenced to death. He will most likely be sentenced to life imprisonment. Cheer up. You can visit him in prison when you are in good condition. You will have a chance soon."
Huang Siyu's eyes lit up after hearing what Yi Jie said, and she forced a smile, "Okay, don't worry about me. I'm an adult now, and I can adjust myself. You guys should leave quickly, so as not to miss the flight."
Yi Jie gave her a hug and dragged her suitcase out of the house where she had lived for half a month.
The preparations for the filming of Counterattack Years have been completed to 80% so far. Director Lu Kexin told Yi Jie that the filming will start in October this year. There is still time to wait, which is just enough time for Yi Jie to deal with other things. Otherwise, if there are too many things to do, she will be exhausted.
When the plane landed in Beijing, it turned out that it was Brother He Muchi who was sent by Grandpa He to pick him up. Yi Jie secretly glanced at Pei Yanan and found that she looked normal, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, she discovered a little secret. Every time Brother He and Pei Yanan were joking, Brother He would frown unconsciously. Oh, it seems that this is the Shura field, but from the look of Xiaonan, it seems that she has long forgotten that feeling. Maybe now the King of Xiang is interested, but the goddess is ruthless.
Yi Jie was being secretive and entertaining all the way, and it was only when she got off the car that Pei Yanan noticed the corners of her mouth that were always raised unconsciously.
"Why are you so happy?"
"I'll talk to you tonight. Let's go eat first. I'm starving." Yi Jie rubbed her empty stomach.
As soon as they put the luggage into the house, Grandma He called Brother Jiayu over and invited them to eat.
Yi Jie and Pei Yanan, who were already familiar with the place, took the slightly reserved He Chengan into the He family. He Chengan stood straight. They had never dared to think of having dinner at the leader's house before.
Grandpa He immediately saw the tall and strong He Chengan and patted his shoulder with amusement.
"Family dinner, don't be so restrained, relax a little."
"Okay, Chief!" He Cheng'an saluted halfway and then stopped with a wry smile.
Yi Jie and Pei Yanan were laughing so hard behind him that they were bent over with laughter. He Chengan glared at them angrily.
There was another table full of delicious food on the table. Yi Jie pulled Grandma He's hand affectionately and acted coquettishly.
"Grandma He, did you miss me?"
Grandma He pinched Yi Jie's smooth nose and said, "Think about it. Not only do I think about it, but your Grandpa He also talks about it every day."
"Nonsense, I don't have that much free time." Grandpa He retorted with a glare.
"Ignore him, he's just trying to save face. Come, sit down and eat. This is Xiao He, right? He's really handsome, a good boy. Sit down." Grandma He spoke to He Cheng'an with a pleasant face, which made him even more flattered.
It is lively when a whole family sits together to eat. In the joyful atmosphere, the delicious food is quickly eaten up.
Grandpa He made some health-preserving tea as usual after meals, called Yi Jie over and asked her questions in detail.
"Have you really made up your mind to join the entertainment industry? You've been in it for a while, how do you feel about it? Can you accept it? You don't have to force yourself to complete the task. We old guys can't let you down for selfish desires."
"Don't worry, Grandpa He, I'm doing this on my own initiative. This job is very challenging and I've experienced many different kinds of life. I feel like I've become more insightful and my empathy has also increased as a result of doing this. So you don't have to worry about me. This is a win-win situation." Yi Jie explained quickly, not wanting to put a psychological burden on the old man.
"Well, even though the entertainment industry is a mixed bag, it's never too careful. By the way, Mu Chi, come here." Grandpa He waved to Big Brother He.
"Grandpa, what's the matter?"
"It's a good time to talk to Xiao Jie in detail about the agent you recommended last time. I'll also help with some advice."
Brother He understood and immediately began to introduce, "This man is called Yu Bin, a descendant of the Yu family who used to be in business. Ten years ago, the Yu family fell behind, so Brother Yu made a living as a broker. He is very successful and has a lot of experience. People who know him say that he is upright and has never taken a crooked path. He has created a movie queen and a pop star through his abilities and connections. I have met him before, and he seems pretty good. You can get to know him better."
"Have you done the background check?" This is what Grandpa He is most concerned about. After all, Yi Jie's identity is special and there is no room for error. There are too many things that the agent can find out.
"It's done, there's no problem. Besides, grandpa, have you forgotten that Brother Yu's ancestors were red capitalists, and the family motto and tradition are impeccable." Brother He reminded at the right time.
"Yes, yes, yes, I remember now. That sounds really good. What do you think, Xiao Jie?" Grandpa He turned his head and looked at Yi Jie.
"I think that's fine. We know each other well now. Brother He, please act as a middleman and arrange a time for us to meet and talk one day." Yi Jie grinned at He Muchi.
"Okay, I'll tell you in advance then."
After staying at Grandpa He's house for a short time, Yi Jie and her friends returned home.
Finally, they had time to talk in private. Yi Jie pulled Pei Yanan into the room and asked her seriously, "Xiao Nan, do you still like Brother He?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this?" Pei Yanan's attitude was very calm, and Yi Jie could already guess what she was thinking.
"Answer me first."
"I had some feelings. After all, it was my first time to have a crush on someone. But how should I put it? I found that I wasn't that obsessed. I was only sad for a few days after that, and then I was fine. Maybe I didn't really understand what love was," Pei Yanan answered thoughtfully.
"But I'm telling you, Brother He might like you!"
"What! How is this possible!" Pei Yanan jumped three feet high and shouted in disbelief.
