Chapter 2505: Chapter 2290: Why Are You Jealous for No Reason? (Part 6)
"Such a despicable person, truly hateful!" Zhang Lijiao gritted her teeth.
"Hey, isn’t it a coincidence? Shen Jiayan is just about to shoot the barefoot scenes, and her foot ends up like this." Zhou Yuanzhi said with a frown.
"This isn’t a coincidence at all, it’s clearly intentional. Everyone has read the script; she must know Shen Jiayan has scenes showing her feet, which is why she chose this method. God knows how many more despicable tricks she has waiting for Shen Jiayan." Zhang Lijiao said indignantly to Zhou Yuanzhi and Niu Yun.
"Why do you keep giving her roles?" Niu Yun seemed to question Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Boss Niu, you’re the big boss, fearless of everything; we small directors can’t manage that. Our producer received money from her Feng family." Zhou Yuanzhi replied ambiguously to Niu Yun.
Just as they were all saying one thing and another, a proud and shrill female voice suddenly came from outside: "Oh dear, sorry, I’m late!"
Zhou Yuanzhi, Niu Yun, and Zhang Lijiao turned their heads; speak of the devil, and she appears.
They saw Zhang Lijiao still in a mink fur coat, wearing sunglasses and high heels, swaying her way towards Niu Yun, Zhang Lijiao, and Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Director Zhou, I truly apologize, my face got hit and swollen, I’m afraid I can’t shoot for the next few days, so I wanted to ask Director Zhou for leave, let’s put my scenes at the end." Feng Yuzhi said to Zhou Yuanzhi, pretending as if no conflict had occurred.
"Then rest a few more days at home!" Zhou Yuanzhi replied to Feng Yuzhi with a sour face.
"What’s wrong, Director Zhou? Why such a temper so early in the morning?" Feng Yuzhi asked curiously and innocently.
"You know very well what’s wrong!" Zhou Yuanzhi couldn’t help but shout at Feng Yuzhi.
"Director Zhou, what do you mean? I just arrived, how did I anger you?" Feng Yuzhi still looked innocent.
"Hey, where’s Shen Jiayan? All us extras are here; where’s the leading lady? How dare she be late, so unacceptable!" Feng Yuzhi pretended to look around the venue, noticing Shen Jiayan wasn’t there.
"Feng Yuzhi, people see and heaven watches; karma will fall on you sooner or later!" Zhang Lijiao said, her chest heaving in anger.
"Why do you speak so harshly? What did I do? It was me who got slapped to the ground! If anyone deserves karma, it’s you!" Feng Yuzhi pointed her finger at Shen Jiayan, Zhou Yuanzhi, and Niu Yun.
"If you’re not here to act, then step aside and don’t disrupt our work." Zhou Yuanzhi reached out to drive Feng Yuzhi away.
"What work is there to do? The leading lady isn’t even here!" Feng Yuzhi mocked Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Rest assured, even without a leading lady, I won’t choose you as the leading lady." Zhou Yuanzhi gritted his teeth, determined.
"Hmph, we’ll see." Feng Yuzhi turned and left.
"Director Zhou, where’s the infirmary on the set? My face is swollen, I want to go put on some medication." Feng Yuzhi turned her head suddenly, asking Zhou Yuanzhi halfway down the path.
"You!" Zhou Yuanzhi couldn’t resist going up to slap Feng Yuzhi ten more times.
"Good thing my face is real; if it were like some people with a fake nose, my face would be ruined." Feng Yuzhi turned to glance at Zhang Lijiao.
"For a person to be this vile, it’s truly remarkable!" Zhang Lijiao said coldly to Feng Yuzhi.
"Goodbye." Feng Yuzhi headed toward the infirmary.
Shen Jiayan was washing her feet in the infirmary.
The physician in the infirmary was clearly not handling this situation for the first time, very skilled, shaking his head while helping Shen Jiayan clean the wound.
"What’s wrong with people these days, their hearts are so wicked!" The physician in the infirmary seemed to be talking to himself, yet also to Shen Jiayan.
Shen Jiayan lowered her head, staring blankly at her feet that had their skin worn away.
At this moment, the infirmary door suddenly opened.
"Oh dear, isn’t this Shen Jiayan?" Feng Yuzhi opened the infirmary door, surprised to see Shen Jiayan.
Shen Jiayan turned her head, seeing Feng Yuzhi’s triumphant look, lips tightly sealed, eyes that seemed about to shed tears stared at Feng Yuzhi, unspoken.
"What happened?" Seeing Shen Jiayan like this made Feng Yuzhi even more pleased, as if a grievance was resolved, hurriedly walking with feigned concern.
Shen Jiayan was washing her feet.
Ground glass powder is a perfect abrasive; human feet are flesh and blood. Stepping on glass powder will quickly create wounds, at times even strip whole sections of skin off, and because glass powder is so fine, cleaning is difficult, taking a long time to clear away completely.
Some notorious assassins also employ glass powder in murders.
For instance, using poison that activates upon entering the bloodstream, they will place it in food, while pairing it with sugar or salt mixed with glass powder.
The victim, upon eating the food and sugar or salt, has the toxin and glass powder simultaneously enter the digestive tract, with the glass powder causing internal injuries and bleeding, allowing the toxin to permeate the blood and act.
So putting glass powder in someone else’s shoes is indeed an evil, unscrupulous act.
Such despicable tactics originated from ballet companies.
Competition in ballet companies is intense; outstanding performers face exclusion and sabotage, with glass powder or shards placed in shoes to hinder performance.
There are indeed people this vile in the world.
"Is your foot hurt?" Feng Yuzhi asked Shen Jiayan, pretending to be concerned.
Shen Jiayan didn’t speak.
"Is this from being worn down? What scene are you filming today? How did your foot end up like this just starting out? Is it due to a lack of exercise?" Despite Shen Jiayan ignoring her, Feng Yuzhi continued her inquiries.
Shen Jiayan still remained silent.
"You weren’t schemed against, were you?" Feng Yuzhi directly sat beside Shen Jiayan, shaking her arm.
Shen Jiayan still showed no reaction.
"You know, I’ve heard people say some star battles involve open and clandestine moves, secretly doing anything to each other, like putting glass shards in shoes, casting Jiangtou, buying voodoo dolls, raising little ghosts; it’s horrifying." Feng Yuzhi mused aloud.
