Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

"Yin Su—"

In a daze, Bo Bing heard a scream of fear.

What's going on...

My throat hurts like it's being torn apart—how could it be me who made that scream?

The two fell rapidly in the torrential rain.

With limited vision, the conjunctiva of Bo Bing's eyes was completely congested, and the skin and flesh on his face were deformed by the resistance of the wind. In just 0.1 seconds, blood was forced out of his throat by a force that defied common sense.

Skills that violate the rules of gravity and the laws of nature cannot be used in front of so many people; even Alpha could not grant him this authority while destroying the thin, icy body.

[Streamlined] Activation. One-time skill to counteract wind resistance.

[Wind-Breaking Facility] Activated. A one-time use item that reduces wind resistance during descent by 50%, protecting the host's organs.

[Blue Shell Defense] activated.

A young man's body falls faster than a man's.

—But that's not enough, not fast enough.

Bo Bing stepped onto the iron frame next to him and used gravity to sprint downwards. He directly unlocked the [Blue Light - Brain - Basic] skill, and the pain of unlocking 1% of his brain function caused him to temporarily lose his sight.

[Mind's Eye] activated. Duration: 30 seconds.

[Spring of Life] activated. Continuously restoring the host's status.

Yin Su, who was already semi-conscious, was still ten meters away from landing. At that speed, he would crash into the mat almost immediately.

Thin ice stretched out its hand.

【Thousand-Pound Drop】Activated. A one-time skill that instantly presses down.

[Leg Bone Strengthening] Activated.

[Finger Bone Enhancement] Activated.

In the rapid descent, due to lack of oxygen, Bo Bing's face had turned a grotesque bluish-purple.

[Cloud Brain] activated. Calculating landing point for the first skill...

In his field of vision, everything turned gray. With the help of his Mind's Eye and Cloud Brain, he could "see" Yin Su's body and the safe landing point.

Bo Bing tried her best to grab the other person's ankle, but even though it was not far away, the young man's fingertips only touched air.

A difference of a hair's breadth can lead to a difference of a thousand miles.

His hands were empty.

That's too late!

The black-haired youth's eyes widened in horror, his breath caught in his throat, and his heart pumped scalding blood throughout his body.

Yin Su cannot die now!!!

"alpha--"

Alfa's electronic voice sounded, still a mechanical and cold announcement.

[Equivalent Substitution]

The host will pay the price for all their actions.

"Change!"

With lives at stake, Bo Bing couldn't afford to argue with the system anymore.

[Analgesia] Initiated.

[Physical Activity Level] Activated.

The instant Yin Su was only three meters off the ground, many people near and far couldn't bear to look away and closed their eyes.

The fall of a superstar, coupled with the horrific scene of his fall, is something not everyone has the courage to witness with their eyes open... However, the expected explosion of blood mist did not occur.

Time seemed to stand still, and a layer of cold sweat had already formed on the back of the person with their eyes closed.

The sound of a heavy object hitting a soft cushion.

Wang Chang's arm spasmed, and the tendons in his calves were clenched into a tight knot. If it weren't for the machine, he probably would have collapsed to the ground, paralyzed.

"Young Master, Young Master—"

"boss!"

The first to react were He Jinlan and Sun Qiuping on the sidelines. He Jinlan used one hand to hold onto the equipment and flipped over, almost sprinting to the front of the mat. Sun Qiuping was not in good physical condition, and it was clear that he was panicking. He shouted to his assistant as he ran, "Call! Call an ambulance!"

Their voices seemed to unlock the secrets of these people, instantly throwing the filming set into chaos. People wandered around, unsure of what to do, and began frantically pulling out their phones.

Many people even thought that falling from such a height would have been extremely dangerous, and that even if an ambulance came, it would probably be of little use.

Dizziness.

—Her body was as light as the soft foam that rose from the Little Mermaid.

But if it really is foam, why does it feel so real and dizzy? And why, upon falling into the cushion, does one feel not numbness, but the pain of a violent impact?

"Young Master—how badly are you injured?"

He Jinlan's face had turned pale. He forced himself to calm down and prepared himself mentally for what was to come so that he wouldn't appear too shocked... Well, he felt that his mental preparation was still weak.

The scene was not as expected. The movie star was completely encircled in the arms of the black-haired youth. The youth's left hand was on the man's back, while his right hand was protecting the man in front of his chest.

The strange posture was that it acted as a cushion, touching the air cushion underneath first.

"Don't cry at the wrong grave... He's perfectly fine," the young man said, still coughing as Yin Su pressed him down. His mouth was full of blood and foam, and the blood he had spurted out was mixed with rainwater and flowed down the air cushion into the depression, quickly forming a pool of blood.

Bo Bing's behavior at this moment was so bad it was beyond words.

"I'm the one who's in trouble..."

Yin Su seemed stunned by the fall, and only gradually came to his senses after He Jinlan helped him up.

"Thin ice..."

"Get up, you're too heavy."

The young man patted his face with his right hand, somewhat angrily, signaling him to stop standing there.

Everyone gathered around and saw that Yin Su was still standing there unharmed. Everyone, including Wang Chang, breathed a sigh of relief. Then, they went to the mat to check Bo Bing's injuries.

Bai Zixiu looked down and saw the young man's left hand, which was no longer recognizable. The impact of the physical blow nearly made him vomit. A faint smell of blood filled the air, and everyone's mood turned heavy.

No one dared to offer any assistance or take any other action against the current precarious situation.

It rained harder and harder.

The rumbling thunder of autumn resounded in everyone's hearts.

The scalding raindrops dripped onto Bo Bing's face, making him feel dazed again. He squinted and tried to look at Yin Su, who was kneeling beside him holding an umbrella for him.

The rain was too loud.

He couldn't quite hear Yin Su's words, but he still reached out and wiped the rain from the corner of Yin Su's eyes.

"It's nothing serious, I'll be fine," Bo Bing forced a smile, unaware that she looked even more miserable to others. "Don't look so mournful..."

"Like a puppy."

Bo Bing's gaze suddenly drifted far away, and she sighed nostalgically, "Still that little dirty dog ​​that nobody picked up on a rainy day..."

"Stop talking...stop talking," Yin Su pursed his lips, hastily wiping the rain from his face. "Anything about that...godfather...please..."

Don't leave me alone.

thunder.

The others wisely stood at a distance, the rain obscuring their view, but they remained silent.

The ambulance arrived relatively quickly.

The black-haired youth, who had already lost consciousness, was pulled out of the bloody water by medical staff and placed on a stretcher. He was taken to the hospital along with Yin Su.

Yin Su was in slightly better condition, but Bo Bing, who was barely breathing... everyone assumed he wouldn't survive the night.

Even the doctor sighed when he heard that Bo Bing and Yin Su had fallen from a height of thirty meters, and could only say that he would do his best.

Bo Bing's condition seemed like a final burst of energy before death; perhaps the adrenaline hadn't yet subsided, keeping his brain active. But once the adrenaline receded, no one could guarantee what his condition would be like.

Although someone was there to cushion the impact on Yin Su, it cannot be ruled out that it was due to adrenaline. Further examination is needed to determine the cause. Sun Qiuping and Wu Mu accompanied him to the examination room.

Unusually, Wang Chang, He Jinlan, Li Ling, and Xiao Peilin, the special assistant who had just arrived in the rain, were standing outside the emergency room.

And Wen Yuan, the second young master of the Shui family private hospital, who happened to run into Xiao Peilin.

"what's the situation?"

Wen Yuan sensed something was wrong. The person looking after his sister saw Xiao Peilin rushing over and knew something had happened, so they quickly followed. "Who's inside?"

They knew each other before, and since the Shui family couldn't hide it from Wen Yuan, He Jinlan didn't hide it from him either.

"Bo Bing, you know her."

"Xiao Bing?"

Wen Yuan jumped up in disbelief. "What happened?"

This is also what Li Ling and Xiao Peilin wanted to ask.

“A filming accident,” He Jinlan wiped her face, “At a height of thirty meters, our boss’s wire broke… I don’t know how, but the thin ice on the other side also fell down…”

The people present gasped.

"When I arrived, Bo Bing was protecting our boss... he was just a scapegoat..."

"what?"

"How can it be?!"

"How exactly did you inspect the filming location?" Wen Yuan muttered under his breath, then took out his phone to send a message.

Xiao Peilin's face was extremely grim. He turned around and confronted Wang Chang, "Two lives! Can you, Wang Chang, afford to pay for them?"

Wang Chang's face turned ashen; he hadn't expected this to happen.

But when it comes to filming...

He took out his phone and dialed a number with trembling hands.

"Did you take a picture of that... just now?"
