Reborn in the Entertainment Industry: Second Life

"Director Long, are you alright? Director Long?"

Dong Shuchen was very anxious, and he quickly helped Qu Long, whose face was ashen.

Just then, a knock sounded on the door.

Qu Long snapped out of his daze and looked towards the door. At this hour, the person coming to find him couldn't possibly be a member of the production crew. So, who could it be?

Qu Long maintained his composure and pressed his temples.

"Come in."

Two unexpected guys.

Wen Yuan and Zhao Yang walked in one after the other.

As soon as Zhao Yang walked in, he got straight to the point, "What happened to Brother Bo Bing and the others, Director?"

This surprised Qu Long, but despite his surprise, he knew the two men's backgrounds and the chain of interests behind them, so he only paused for a moment before revealing everything, including the incident of the knife-wielding assailant breaking the window and Bo Bing stopping the car.

The current situation is that the whereabouts of the thin ice are unknown.

Jiang Wenqing and the two children in his group are fine for now.

Yin Su fell into a coma.

As Wen Yuan listened to Dong Shuchen and Qu Long's explanations, he narrowed his fox-like eyes, as if he were pondering something.

"That's all? Shouldn't the police cars and ambulances have arrived by now?" He seized on the key phrase, looked up, and stared at Dong Shuchen. "They were facing an armed assailant, and some of them are still unharmed?"

Logically speaking, it's unlikely that the guy with the knife would have a change of heart, yet he showed mercy to the children and the survivors. Moreover, the fact that the traffickers didn't abduct the children is truly an act of great compassion.

Qu Long sighed and nodded. "Jiang Wenqing made the call. He just said that he and his two children are all fine."

Wen Yuan thought about it carefully. He didn't know about others, but he knew that Jiang Wenqing, who was on good terms with him, was almost completely ignorant about this kind of physical combat. Although Yin Su had trained in private, he didn't participate in the battle under these circumstances.

Where did they get the phone number?

Wen Yuan pressed on, saying that these guys couldn't possibly have any communication devices on them; the production team had confiscated them all from the start. He could only assume it was from Yin Su or a shared facility. "A phone booth?"

“No,” Qu Long said in a deep voice, “it’s an unfamiliar number belonging to a local. There’s no signal on Jiang Wenqing’s end.”

All four of them fell silent.

“Jiang Wenqing said…” Dong Shuchen scratched his hair, looking frustrated as if he didn’t know how to speak, “There… someone died over there.”

"Wenqing would never engage in hand-to-hand combat, Teacher Yin Su..."

Wen Yuan began to provide a reasoned and well-founded analysis.

"It's not Yin Su."

Qu Long rubbed his face, feeling stiff. He didn't know how he had managed to say those words, "It was Bo Bing, Jiang Wenqing's last words... Bo Bing... killed someone."

"Thin ice?"

Wen Yuan and Zhao Yang were almost pierced by the chill in their hearts.

Otherwise, why would my fingers start trembling for no reason?

In the real world, killing is a very heavy and serious word, unlike a boss in a game whose health bar is visible, where "killing" simply removes the code.

—Did Bo Bing kill someone?

The feeling of having someone you spend every day with turn out to be a murderous devil, an executioner who challenges the bottom line of law and morality, is not something that most people can digest instantly.

Clearly, none of the four of them could digest it.

The torrential rain almost shattered the windows.

Zhao Yang also realized the meaning behind Director Qu Long's words.

"It's Brother Bing? I don't believe it!"

“The other party was carrying a weapon, which can be considered a threat to Bo Bing’s life,” Wen Yuan said. “This can be considered self-defense.”

Zhao Yang sighed and continued to ask Qu Long, "Can I still make a phone call? I want to call home."

Qu Long told the two young masters to make themselves at home.

Overnight, several prominent families were alarmed.

The Zhao family's influence is mainly in the Pearl River Delta region. The mother is Zhao Shujun, a well-known collector with overseas Chinese background, and the father is Qian Yu, a calligrapher and painter with many students.

Zhao Shujun only has one son, and everyone in the Zhao family knows that she values ​​him very much. From a young age, he received an elite education, and Zhao Shujun also allowed him to cultivate his mind and character according to his own ideas, such as writing songs, dancing, and broadening his experience. Anyway, it's not his main job, so it won't hurt Zhao Yang to meet more people.

Zhao Shujun is the eldest sister, with a younger sister Zhao Shuxiu and a younger brother Zhao Shujun. The three siblings of the main branch of the Zhao family are quite united.

Zhao Shujun often travels overseas to do business and inspect goods. Zhao Shuxiu is not yet married and is currently the person in charge of affairs at the Zhao family company.

When she heard that the call was from Zhao Yang, she immediately paused the meeting and had the call transferred from the secretariat. She had a good relationship with her nephew, and Zhao Yang wouldn't dare to tell Zhao Shujun the idea he wanted; telling the gentle Zhao Shuxiu would definitely be the right thing to do.

But today, Zhao Shuxiu called a halt to the meeting with a dark expression.

Similarly, Wen Qian on the other side also received a call from Wen Yuan, and wished he could rush to Wen Yuan's side with his men right now.

How did such a perfectly good variety show end up like this?

Most importantly, Wen Yuan seems to have a good relationship with Bo Bing, and even said that the Wen family needs to find a trustworthy lawyer to help Bo Bing with her lawsuit.
