Chen Yongran's face contorted.
It was from fear.
He was accustomed to arrogance, but had never seen someone with severed limbs.
At this moment, Chen Yongran forced himself to calm down: "I'm not like Liu Kangyang, his family just does business, but do you know who my cousin is? Just saying his name will scare you to death!"
He became fierce: "Don't try to scare me with your dirty money. My cousin is the revered figure of the Western Territory, with a million soldiers under his command. With a single word, he can bring his men to tear down this film studio!"
He revealed his ultimate backing.
Qin Yexuan interrupted unceremoniously: "I'll give you a chance. Call Chen Baidi now and have him come talk!"
Huh?
Chen Yongran's eyes darted around, surprised that he knew his cousin's name.
Trembling, he took out his phone and frantically called his cousin.
Chen Baidi answered impatiently.
"Cousin, I'm at the film base, and I've been captured. They're going to kill me! Can you send some people to save me?"
There was a silence on the other end, followed by a roar: "How old are you, and you're still bothering me with these trivial matters every day? I don't have time, and I won't send anyone to save you!"
On Wanghai Tower, Chen Baidi was locked onto by Qin Yexuan's aura and spat blood. He was in a particularly irritable mood at the moment and had no desire to deal with this useless cousin.
Chen Yongran panicked and shouted in front of everyone: "But this time it's not me causing trouble. It was my sister-in-law who told me to deal with Su Xueqing, and she said she wanted to have Su Xueqing, record a video, and send it to her."
"Shut up!" Chen Baidi grew anxious on the other end: "Can you talk about such things on the phone?"
Soon, Chen Baidi calmed down: "Your sister-in-law is on her way. Don't call me again."
In the scene, the director and producer covered their ears, their faces filled with terror.
They weren't fools and suddenly realized they had been dragged into a complex vortex.
It turned out that Chen Baidi's wife wanted to deal with Su Xueqing, which was why so much trouble had arisen.
The more you knew about the struggles between these powerful factions, the faster you died.
Chen Yongran put down his phone, breathing heavily.
But his eyes were filled with smugness: "My eldest sister-in-law is a ruthless character. You're finished."
Qin Yexuan looked at the director and producer: "You two go out. No one should enter this tent."
The two acted as if they had received a great pardon, scrambling out in fright.
The tent quieted down, and Chen Yongran paced anxiously.
Not long after, Jun Mengyao appeared with a cold demeanor.
She seemed to have brought no one with her, arriving alone.
She had already grasped most of the situation.
"Yongran, what did you say on the phone?" Jun Mengyao's eyes held a murderous glint: "Can what I entrusted you with be spoken of so carelessly?"
Chen Yongran didn't take it seriously: "Sister-in-law, only my cousin knows about this, what's there to be afraid of."
Stab!
A dagger suddenly appeared and pierced directly into Chen Yongran's neck.
Jun Mengyao held the dagger, her eyes filled with contempt: "It seems you don't understand. A secret is a secret. I'm very disappointed in you."
Chen Yongran made gurgling sounds in his throat, unable to believe that he would fall at the hands of this woman.
Jun Mengyao withdrew the dagger, turned, and stared at the disguised Qin Yexuan.
Then, her entire body began to tremble.
Others might not recognize him, but Jun Mengyao, skilled in the art of mind control, recognized him instantly.
This disguised man was none other than Qin Yexuan himself, the same as the man wearing the black mask!
With a thud, Jun Mengyao knelt in the pool of blood.
Her forehead was covered in sweat, and she dared not make a move.
Qin Yexuan looked at her coldly: "Your original plan was to come in and silence Chen Yongran, then frame me. After all, if you just threw the dagger into my hand and shouted for help, the people here would rush in and only arrest me..."
"Mr. Qin, I, I wouldn't dare. If I had known you were here, I never would have come." Jun Mengyao seemed to have gauged Qin Yexuan's temperament and was now speaking the truth.
Qin Yexuan smiled: "Stop pretending. You know I wouldn't do anything to you here."
Jun Mengyao's eyes darted around: "Mr. Qin, I have no enmity with the Su sisters. Someone ordered me to do this."
Qin Yexuan's eyes flickered: "It was the Huanglong family from the imperial capital who sent you. They also helped you secure the identity of Chen Baidi's fiancée."
Jun Mengyao dared not utter a word.
Qin Yexuan stood up, slowly approached her, and suddenly raised his hand, a silver needle flashing.
Jun Mengyao was petrified, feeling as if her face had been pricked with at least a thousand needles.
"Look at yourself now!" Qin Yexuan retracted the silver needle.
Jun Mengyao fearfully took out her phone. The moment the selfie camera opened, she let out a scream that was not human.
Her entire face had swollen up, looking terrifying like an evil spirit.
Her most cherished delicate beauty, the allure she used to navigate various factions, was completely ruined.
Qin Yexuan raised his hand and tapped her on the crown of her head.
Jun Mengyao's screams abruptly ceased.
She touched her face in disbelief. Her delicate features had returned to normal?
This, what kind of technique was this?
"Come here every 48 hours. I'll give you an injection to restore your appearance. If you miss the time, you'll turn back into how you were just now!"
Jun Mengyao's face turned ashen. It took a long time for her to stand up.
In the past, she was the one who casually manipulated those foolish men. Now, she was being manipulated by this man.
As long as he was displeased, she would turn into an ugly monster!
"Mr. Qin, I, I..."
Jun Mengyao, who was always capable and wore a perpetual smile, showed despair for the first time.
