Director Li was taken aback and immediately shouted, "Where is she?"
The crew members looked at each other, and no one spoke.
"Rescue team, rescue team, hurry down and check!"
The martial arts director, Director Zhao, who had recovered his senses, immediately yelled for the rescue team.
The rescue team, who had been prepared for a while, immediately jumped into the water, with two of them diving to search.
All the onlookers from the crew gathered by the railing, enjoying the spectacle, while Su Meiyi smirked, thinking, "Misfortune befalls those who court it; they bring it upon themselves."
Having done so many bad deeds, even Heaven could not bear it and wanted you to drown.
Beside her, Tang Wanxing held her coffee, but felt no desire to drink it. Her brow furrowed slightly as she looked at the lake in disbelief, her mind a blank.
Beside her, Qiao Ziqian squeezed over and whispered in her ear, "Did you do it?"
Tang Wanxing was startled and glanced at Qiao Ziqian, but said nothing.
"What's going on? Why haven't they found her yet?"
"Oh my god, in this cold weather, could she have gotten cramps in the water and drowned?"
"The ice on the lake is very thin, but it shouldn't be impossible to get out of the water."
"Someone's dead, someone's drowning!"
...
The crew members and extras all stood there, watching the drama unfold as if it were a show. Some even eagerly wanted to jump into the water to rescue her, but Director Li yelled at them to stop.
A few minutes later, the three rescue personnel who had dived into the water surfaced, waved their hands, and shook their heads, indicating they hadn't seen anyone.
Director Li's face turned ashen with fear. He grabbed the megaphone and shouted, "You're talking nonsense! How could a person just disappear in the water? Keep looking!"
With an angry roar, the men obediently dived back into the water to continue searching for Meng Jingwei.
Onshore, everyone was in a panic.
Only the stunt double, Xiao Tian, was still suspended in mid-air. As a stunt performer, she was practically invisible, and she dared not say anything at this critical juncture.
She even looked at the sword in her hand with self-doubt, murmuring, "I didn't do anything, how could she have fallen into the water?"
Onshore, the male lead, Li Shang, tugged at Qiao Ziqian. "You know how to swim, don't you? Go down and check."
Qiao Ziqian looked at Li Shang like he was an idiot. "You do too, why don't you go down?"
Was he out of his mind?
However, Qiao Ziqian was curious. Li Shang's attitude towards Meng Jingwei hadn't been good before, but he was surprisingly worried after she fell into the water.
"Alright, I'll go down and check."
Li Shang took off his down jacket and, without a word, jumped directly into the water.
With a splash, countless water droplets scattered, and everyone turned their heads to look.
Their faces immediately turned black as a pot. "What's going on?"
"Brother Shang jumped in."
"He went down to save Meng Jingwei."
"Brother Shang is a very good swimmer, it should be fine."
"I don't know."
...
A few people saw what was happening and reported it to the director.
As a result, Director Li kicked a nearby prop in anger. "Damn it, what is going on!"
His temples throbbed with rage.
Tang Wanxing tightly gripped her coffee cup and took several sips to calm her nerves.
Meng Jingwei...
Would she really die here?
Tang Wanxing looked up at the broken wire suspended in mid-air. There were obvious signs of foul play, and if discovered, she might be implicated.
Thinking of this, she immediately took out her phone and drafted a message: "I asked you to find a way to deal with Meng Jingwei, what exactly did you do?"
Under normal circumstances, a person falling into the water would float up, not remain submerged for so long without any movement.
The situation was too bizarre, and Tang Wanxing couldn't help but speculate.
