Chapter 48 The Way One Looked in Youth

She didn't look like Xu Ru Yun in her youth at all.

Instead, Su Qi, especially her eyes, was exactly like Xu Ru Yun when she was young.

That arrogant, beautiful, and captivating aura.

With just a glance, one could feel suffocated.

As for Xu Lin Yun, she had ultimately been protected too well.

A flower in a greenhouse, easily snapped with a gentle touch.

Mo Yu could only sigh, "If you've made up your mind, tell me, and I'll definitely have someone handle this matter for you."

"Got it." Xu Lin Yun saw that they were preparing to shoot the next scene, so she got up to communicate with the director.

Huo Ting Jun's injuries had not healed, and Xu Lin Chuan had also been on set these past few days.

Su Qi left the set at night, driving Gu Tang Xue away. As they passed by the forest park, there was a patch of forest with black skeletal trees.

"It looked terrifying during the day, and even more so at night. It felt like a bear would pounce out at any second..."

There was a fence, but many wild animals still managed to sneak out every year.

Because it was a protected area, very few people walked through; most drove, so there were rarely any news of casualties.

Su Qi glanced at the forest over there, pursed her lips, and continued driving forward.

Once they entered the city, it gradually became lively.

The next day, the crew had night scenes, so filming continued very late. Su Qi was called to the lounge by Mo Yu.

Having learned from the previous experience.

Su Qi was cautious.

After receiving Mo Yu's call, she first sent a text message to Gu Tang Xue.

Gu Tang Xue was still filming, with the same scenes as Xu Lin Yun, and would see the message in ten minutes.

After seeing the message sent, Su Qi walked towards the lounge.

The door was slightly ajar.

Su Qi stood at the doorway for a moment before raising her hand to knock.

Mo Yu was not inside.

Su Qi waited outside the door for a while, but Mo Yu did not appear.

She then picked up her phone, intending to call Mo Yu.

Suddenly, a burly man walked from the end of the corridor.

Su Qi glanced at him quickly.

Her heart immediately sounded an alarm.

At this time, almost all the staff were filming within the film city. There was hardly anyone in the lounge area; it was practically just her.

At this moment, the sudden appearance of a burly man indicated he was not someone to be trifled with.

This was not a good omen.

Su Qi still pressed the dial button to call Mo Yu.

On the other end, Mo Yu did not answer the call.

Su Qi watched as the burly man got closer and closer, so she quickly slipped into the room and locked the door from the inside.

The man's footsteps stopped at the door.

There was a rustling sound.

Su Qi's call on her phone had already ended. Because no one answered, after a few beeps, the call was completely disconnected.

Just as she was about to redial, the sound of a key being inserted into the lock suddenly echoed from outside.

Su Qi's eyes widened in horror, and she took half a step back. Before she could press the emergency call button, the door was pushed open.

The burly man appeared outside the door, glaring fiercely at Su Qi, and walked towards her step by step.

"Sorry, I'm just doing this for money. I apologize!"

The burly man lunged forward and thrust the handkerchief in his hand towards Su Qi's face.

Su Qi quickly held her breath, but in the struggle, she still inhaled the gas from the handkerchief.

Instantly, her vision went black, and the world spun.

Even with a strong will, after a few seconds, she completely fell into darkness.

By the time Gu Tang Xue saw the message, she had just finished filming.

She quickly walked towards the lounge while calling Su Qi.

On the other end, no one answered.

A bad premonition surged in Gu Tang Xue's heart, and she quickened her pace.

When she reached Mo Yu's lounge door, she found that the lounge door was wide open.

The room was empty, and the items on the table were in disarray.

In a corner on the floor, she found a mobile phone.

Picking it up, she realized it was Su Qi's.

The phone was still vibrating, displaying her incoming call.

This is bad!

Something must have happened!

Although she knew Xu Lin Yun and Mo Yu disliked Su Qi, Gu Tang Xue never imagined that these two would be so heartless.

She strode quickly towards the outside.

She bumped into someone head-on.

"Sorry, sorry..."

Gu Tang Xue's phone fell to the ground. Without looking to see who it was, she squatted down to pick up her phone.

The man stopped Gu Tang Xue and helped her pick up the phone that had fallen to the ground.

This was Su Qi's phone; she hadn't even changed the wallpaper.

The screen displayed a wallpaper of The Little Prince.

Although Huo Ting Jun had only seen it once, he remembered it vividly, recognizing whose phone it was at a glance.

"Her phone, how did it end up with you?"

Without time to think carefully about why Master Huo knew it was Su Qi's phone, Gu Tang Xue blurted out, "Su Qi, she... Su Qi..."

Xu Lin Yun noticed Huo Ting Jun was not present and assumed he had gone back to rest because he was too tired.

But why didn't this man tell her before leaving?

Xu Lin Yun looked around, clearly displeased. When it was time for a break, she got up and walked towards the lounge.

Mo Yu saw Xu Lin Yun return and smiled brightly, holding Xu Lin Yun's hand. "Don't worry, I've already handled everything. No one will disturb your and Huo Ting Jun's private time anymore."

"What do you mean by that?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin Yun felt something was wrong. Recalling what Mo Yu had said a couple of days ago, her face instantly turned pale.

"Mo Yu! What did you do to Su Qi!"

"Don't get agitated. Su Qi's disappearance is beneficial. As long as Su Qi is dead, Huo Ting Jun will be entirely yours."

Xu Lin Yun was too soft-hearted, so Mo Yu directly discussed it with Xu Ru Yun. Without Xu Lin Yun's consent, she took it upon herself to find someone to deal with Su Qi.

As long as Su Qi was thrown into the forest park and eaten by wild animals, it would have nothing to do with them.

Killing without a trace, no need for a knife.

Huo Ting Jun had been delaying his divorce from Su Qi for too long. With the wedding date approaching, if they still hadn't divorced by then, the Xu family would become a laughingstock in Shen City.

Xu Lin Yun suddenly stood up and slapped Mo Yu across the face. "You're insane! Do you think that by killing Su Qi, Brother Ting Jun will divorce me? What you've done is simply disregarding human life!"

She truly disliked Su Qi, and she truly hated Su Qi for blocking her path, but she hadn't reached the point of madness.

It was good that Su Qi was gone, which would allow Huo Ting Jun to marry her sooner, but it wasn't her intention.

She just wanted to marry Huo Ting Jun; she didn't want to harm innocent people!

Besides, Su Qi hadn't done anything that greatly harmed her!
