Chapter 219: Faking An Accident To Extort Money
If it were anyone else, they would definitely back down.
But for Jiang Ning, this was the opportunity to become permanent!
Tan Qing happened to have a very gentle and timid personality.
Jiang Ning could only show fear: “Re, really? … Then, then I won’t go get it, I’m afraid.”
Chen Shuyan frowned slightly.
She suddenly felt very unhappy inside.
In her impression.
Jiang Ning had never feared these things.
She could rescue Sui Tang barehanded from the murderer.
She could also bravely charge into Zero Degree alone, confront Huo Chengxuan, just to rescue Jiang Yan.
She could also subdue three kidnappers and rescue the little boy from the kidnappers.
How could such a Jiang Ning be this cowardly and timid person in front of her?
What a waste of this face.
Even if she looked similar, Jiang Ning would always have her own unique charm.
Chen Shuyan left the makeup tent, not wanting to say more.
As long as this person in front of her didn’t complain, it would be fine.
When the dressing room was left with only Jiang Ning, she yawned and stretched lazily.
Then she looked in the mirror.
She added a few strokes to her own face.
She had altered some details of her face, but who knew they still recognized her at a glance.
It had been ten years.
They still remembered her so clearly; Jiang Ning suspected this group of people had a crush on her.
Several young actors came in afterward.
Once Jiang Ning finished their makeup, she could rest for a moment.
Jiang Ning stayed with the film crew until noon, watching these supporting roles’ scenes almost finished, but still didn’t see Wei Jin.
During lunch, she got a lunch box.
There was a big chicken leg inside.
Jiang Ning sat on the chair and ate contentedly.
Suddenly, bursts of screams came from outside.
“Wei Jin! Aaaaaah Wei Jin, I love you! Hubby!”
The fans waiting outside burst into screams.
Jiang Ning looked up while gnawing on the chicken leg and spotted Wei Jin entering the film crew gate at a glance.
He was wearing a black cotton jacket; due to the film crew’s requirements, his previously flashy red hair was dyed back to black, his face carrying a perfectly measured smile, even the curve precisely controlled.
Along the way, he greeted everyone who said hello to him.
His handsome face was maintained like a young stud.
But after coming in, the smile at his lips faded, involuntarily adding a bit of cold detachment.
But undeniably, the precipitation of ten years of time had given Wei Jin much more of a mature man’s charm.
He frowned slightly, looking somewhat annoyed, and asked his male assistant beside him as he walked: “How long do we have to shoot today?”
The male assistant checked his schedule: “Only three hours, because you have dinner with Miss Sui tonight.”
Wei Jin’s face was expressionless: “Got it.”
He strode forward meteor-like.
Jiang Ning lowered her head, pretending to be clumsy and spilling all the remaining soup from the lunch box onto Wei Jin’s cotton jacket.
The lunch box fell to the ground; Jiang Ning’s face turned pale with fright, bowing and apologizing repeatedly.
Her voice even carried a sobbing tone.
Many in the film crew were ready to watch the drama.
Even Chen Shuyan in the distance pursed her lips, pretending not to see it.
Because Wei Jin was famously bad-tempered in the industry.
Only his fans could tolerate him.
Calling his behavior “authentic personality,” referring to him as “a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry,” hyping him up highly; he had been popular for a long time, never short of resources.
Many people gloated, already envisioning the ending for this new makeup artist—probably fired after just one day.
Wei Jin’s facial expression darkened as he looked at his dirty cotton jacket, lips pursed without speaking.
Instead, his male assistant vented first: “What kind of people does your film crew hire? Teacher Wei’s one cotton jacket costs a hundred thousand; what can she compensate with?”
Staff came over to smooth things over, very troubled.
Wei Jin could grow to this point; besides his own strength, the most important was that he had Miss Sui behind him.
Sui Youran was a person with extremely strong possessiveness and indulgence.
At the same time, the Sui Family was one of the four great families in the capital city, its strength intimidating ordinary people; even high-level leaders in China had to give her some face, with influence vast and unfathomable.
Because of Miss Sui, Wei Jin had smooth sailing these years without hardship.
The staff nodded and bowed: “We’ll fire her right away; we absolutely won’t trouble Teacher Wei. As for compensation, we’ll make her pay full price; we’ll handle it here.”
Jiang Ning heard that—a hundred thousand?
Damn, even selling her wouldn’t cover it.
So she pitifully lifted her head, her eyes red, like a little white flower about to shatter.
“I really cherish this job and can’t lose it. I can clean Teacher Wei’s clothes, guarantee they’ll be like new.”
The male assistant was furious listening; seeing Jiang Ning was pretty, his eyes immediately filled with vigilance, sarcastically saying: “I know too well the thoughts of little girls like you. Didn’t you investigate our Teacher Wei Jin and deliberately fake an accident on his must-pass route, thinking it’s an idol drama? Using this clumsy method to attract Teacher Wei Jin’s attention, heh, Teacher Wei Jin doesn’t fall for this; just wait for the lawyer’s letter at home!”
Jiang Ning really cried this time.
Damn, how did he become so capable.
The old Wei Jin used to scrape together medical expenses for mom by fighting.
In the end, mom still wasn’t cured.
Now a casual piece of clothing was a hundred thousand.
She looked at Wei Jin; under her straight bangs, her doe eyes were made crystal clear by tears, with fear mixed deep in the depths; her voice choked: “Teacher Wei, I really didn’t do it on purpose. I don’t have a hundred thousand in my bank card; all my income from these two years has been sent back home to treat mom’s illness. I’ll clean your clothes; can you forgive me this once?”
Wei Jin stood dazed in place.
His eyes fixed only on Jiang Ning’s face.
He blinked lightly, his mind dizzying, nearly making him unsteady.
Actually… he couldn’t quite remember Jiang Ning’s appearance anymore…
Ten years was too long.
Making him forget many original aspirations he was supposed to uphold, even the promise, he had almost forgotten.
But meeting this pair of clean, clear doe eyes.
That face he had longed for in dreams slowly became clear.
Too similar… really too similar…
It’s Jiang Ning…
His gaze shifted to the work badge hanging on her chest.
The two words Tan Qing were particularly striking.
Not Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning saw Wei Jin staring at her in a daze; even the people around noticed something off.
The male assistant saw Wei Jin somewhat dazed, his heart skipping a beat, looking at Jiang Ning’s face again.
She was prettier than many film and TV stars.
No wonder she caught Wei Jin’s eye at first glance.
He cursed vixen under his breath.
Then his voice carried a warning as he called to Wei Jin: “Teacher Wei, we absolutely can’t let this person off; she’s a sasaeng fan disguised as a makeup artist, chasing to the film crew. If we let her stay here, I’m very worried she’ll harm Teacher Wei. Security, get her out for us!”
Jiang Ning cursed inwardly.
Damn! She wouldn’t fail the mission before it even started, right?!
