Chapter 2516: Chapter 2300: Wounds All Over Her Feet_5
"Then you guys just wait, Boss Niu, others can wait, can you afford to wait? The year-end promotions are about to start, and your movie probably won’t be released until the end of next year." Feng Yuzhi said to Niu Yun.
"Then I’ll just use it for next year’s year-end promotional activities." Niu Yun replied.
"Alright, then I’ll leave now. Remember to contact me when filming resumes. After all, I’m the second female lead." Feng Yuzhi said and turned to leave the ward.
"Brother Xiaodong..." Xiao Yingying softly called out to Song Xiaodong.
"I’m going to find Qiao Yutong."
Song Xiaodong walked out of the ward and called Qiao Yutong in the hallway.
"Deputy Director Qiao?"
"Who is this?" Qiao Yutong asked.
"It’s Song Xiaodong. Don’t you recognize me anymore?" Song Xiaodong asked Qiao Yutong.
"I don’t recognize you." Qiao Yutong replied.
"How could you not recognize me? Just a few days ago, you came looking for me to have a meal together. Have you forgotten already?" Song Xiaodong asked Qiao Yutong.
"Oh... I remember now. You’re Song Xiaodong! So, what’s up? Need something from me?" Qiao Yutong asked.
"I do..."
"What’s the matter?"
"Here, an actress got hit by a car. I’d like you to investigate it." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"You should contact the traffic police if it’s a car accident. Why are you calling me?"
"Deputy Director Qiao, your attitude isn’t quite right. Are you mad at me again? I haven’t done anything to upset you lately! I haven’t reached out to you in days!" Song Xiaodong suddenly realized why Qiao Yutong seemed cold towards her.
"Deputy Director Qiao, I’ve been quite busy lately and forgot to make time to visit you. Please don’t be mad. I haven’t forgotten you. But I’m not in Minghe right now; I’m at the film city. Once I’m done here, I’ll treat you to a meal when I get back, okay?" Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"Hmph, you totally forgot about me."
"No, no, no, no..."
"Alright, tell me what’s going on first. What’s the matter?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"Here’s the situation: one of my actresses was filming and suddenly got into a car accident. It happened while she was returning from a meal with another actress. I suspect this other actress is behind this, but we don’t have any evidence, so I wanted Deputy Director Qiao to help investigate." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"Is it that serious? What kind of deep-seated hatred would make someone use a car to hit another person?" Qiao Yutong said.
"She didn’t drive the car, but I feel like she may have pushed our actress as the car approached." Song Xiaodong explained.
"How despicable! People like that deserve to die! Where are you? I’ll be right there!" Qiao Yutong stated.
"Shudian Film and Television City Emergency Hospital."
"Alright."
Before long, police sirens blared outside the hospital, as Qiao Yutong led a team of officers to Shen Jiayan’s ward.
"Deputy Director Qiao." Song Xiaodong greeted Qiao Yutong.
"Tong Tong!"
"Yingying!"
The two women greeted each other warmly.
"This is Officer Li, a local policeman." Qiao Yutong introduced the officer to Song Xiaodong and Xiao Yingying.
"What’s going on?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"The person in the accident is Shen Jiayan, an artist under Yingying’s company. Last night, she went out for hotpot with another actress in the middle of the night, and she got into an accident on the way back." Song Xiaodong replied.
"Just because it’s a car accident doesn’t necessarily mean the other actress is responsible. Why do you suspect her?" Qiao Yutong asked Song Xiaodong.
"Because previously, she put broken glass in Shen Jiayan’s shoes." Xiao Yingying replied.
"What? That’s outrageous!" Qiao Yutong was surprised.
"We don’t have evidence for that either. We suspect the other actress because both she and Shen Jiayan were vying to be the lead actress in this film." Song Xiaodong said to Qiao Yutong.
"Yes, and the other actress is the younger sister of my film’s investor." Zhou Yuanzhi said to Qiao Yutong.
Qiao Yutong turned and glanced at Zhou Yuanzhi, recognizing him.
"Zhou Yuanzhi?" Qiao Yutong couldn’t help but ask.
"That’s me." Zhou Yuanzhi nodded.
"You’re Director Zhou Yuanzhi!" Qiao Yutong pointed at Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Yes, I am."
"So Shen Jiayan, Miss Shen, is participating in Director Zhou Yuanzhi’s film?" Qiao Yutong asked Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Yes, she’s the lead actress in this film." Zhou Yuanzhi confirmed.
"Lead actress?" Qiao Yutong was even more surprised, looking back at Song Xiaodong with admiration.
Qiao Yutong was indeed surprised that Song Xiaodong managed to connect with Zhou Yuanzhi, a top director, and secure a lead role for her actress.
"Yes, Miss Shen is my acting partner." Niu Yun also told Qiao Yutong.
"Niu Yun? Boss Niu?" Qiao Yutong was even more shocked.
"Yes, Deputy Director Qiao, nice to meet you." Niu Yun extended his hand to shake hands with Qiao Yutong.
Chapter 2304: I must support this in the cinema.
After a moment of surprise, Qiao Yutong quickly reached out to shake hands with Niu Yun: "Nice to meet you."
"Boss Niu is the male lead of this film." Zhou Yuanzhi introduced to Qiao Yutong.
"The male lead?" Qiao Yutong thought she misheard.
"Yes."
"Boss Niu, you’re joking, right?" Qiao Yutong found it hard to believe.
"Boss Niu has already been filming for almost a week, doing extremely well, and can certainly take the route of a strong actor." Zhou Yuanzhi said to Qiao Yutong.
