Liu Changjian surprisingly escaped with his life.
He lay there, writhing in pain, but his heart was filled with surprise.
He never imagined that Mr. Qin, behind the mask, would spare him.
In the past, once that black mask was donned, Mr. Qin never left a survivor.
"You should feel fortunate. My master has become much kinder these past few years. Hmph, if it were before, you wouldn't even be able to die!"
Secretary Jiang handed the old man a cigarette, "Now, I'll advise you as Night Demon: go back and behave yourself."
After all, having been his secretary for a few years, Night Demon Seventeen still offered him a reminder.
Liu Changjian understood, grinning through his pain, nodding repeatedly, "I'll go back and live out my retirement, no longer showing my face."
...
When Qin Yexuan returned to the villa, he had already obtained the investment contract from the Liu Changjian family for the "Golden Jade Legend" project.
Over half the funds were invested by Liu Changjian, along with fifty million from Chen Baidi.
Now, the entire film and television project had fallen into Qin Yexuan's hands.
"An additional eight hundred million will be invested anonymously to polish this script again," Qin Yexuan called Secretary Jiang, "You handle the operations."
This caused a stir throughout the film and television base.
A ten-billion-dollar investment, for just a youth wuxia film?
The backer was simply too generous.
"Mr. Jiang, we'd like to meet the big investor and understand their specific requirements."
From the producer to the director, all of them fawned over Secretary Jiang, begging incessantly.
With such a wealthy benefactor, why worry about future funding if they could get acquainted?
Secretary Jiang smiled faintly, maintaining perfect control, "The roles for the male and female leads are reserved for now. The script is being rewritten, and our master will personally inquire if necessary."
The directors nodded repeatedly, rubbing their hands, even wanting to invite Secretary Jiang to dinner.
Meanwhile, as Qin Yexuan listened to Secretary Jiang's report on the first floor of the villa, hurried footsteps echoed from upstairs.
It was the police, arriving at the scene.
Among them was an acquaintance, that girl Su Ning Shuang.
Did Su Xue Qing call the police?!
Upstairs, evidence was being collected in the bathroom.
"It's these two cameras. Someone tried to spy on me. Ning Shuang, quickly find someone to check for fingerprints. Is this kind of behavior a crime?" Su Xue Qing deliberately spoke loudly.
"Of course it is. Once caught, I'll make that scoundrel suffer," Su Ning Shuang said angrily, especially concerned for her sister, "I'll get this done right away."
Outside, the girls also residing in the villa were frantically checking their bathrooms in fear, some already preparing to move out.
And as Su Ning Shuang was about to investigate the fingerprints, Jia Jia's eyes rolled back, and she collapsed with a thud.
She fainted from fright.
If it were discovered that she had planted the cameras, not only would her reputation be ruined, but she would also face imprisonment!
The other girls looked at her in bewilderment, "Jia Jia, it's just a pervert, you don't have to react like this."
Inside, Su Xue Qing pulled Ning Shuang aside and smiled mysteriously, "No need to check fingerprints. I already know who did it."
Su Ning Shuang frowned, "Sister, what exactly are you planning? Why don't you come home with me?"
"Shh, I want to scare that little slut outside to death! I want to torment her," Su Xue Qing said with extreme smugness.
Qin Yexuan stood at the top of the stairs, witnessing this scene and shaking his head. He had worried unnecessarily. This Xue Qing had begun tormenting Jia Jia. Once she gained the upper hand, she indeed struck ruthlessly.
Su Ning Shuang was also speechless and hurried to leave.
"What are you doing, Ning Shuang? Don't go! Don't tell them I'm hiding here when you get back."
Su Ning Shuang seemed agitated and sped out, "Just got word that the damned masked man has appeared in Jiangcheng! This time, I'll definitely catch him!"
Qin Yexuan, at the top of the stairs, lowered his head with a smile and turned to leave.
"You, stop right there!" Su Xue Qing blocked his path, hands on her hips.
Wearing extremely short denim shorts, her fair, long legs made her look even more youthful and radiant, "Thank you for last night. I have money now and want to hire you as my bodyguard. There are too many bad people at the film set. Stay with me and protect me."
Qin Yexuan shrugged, "You borrowed money from your sister, didn't you?"
Huh?!
Su Xue Qing felt guilty and surprised. How did this bumpkin know?
"Are you in or not?"
Qin Yexuan readily agreed.
The two drove to the film city and saw two sports cars speeding through the base at astonishing speed from a distance. The extras on the road screamed and dodged.
A child actor, only seven or eight years old, was almost hit by a car and cried, looking for his mother.
The sports cars stopped, and Liu Kangyang and Chen Yongran stepped out. They directly threw a stack of money at the furious mother, "No one died, and no one was hit. What are you howling about? Take your daughter away."
Smoking a cigarette, Liu Kangyang said nonchalantly, "Young Master Chen, do you think we can get that Su Xue Qing?"
"Don't worry. We'll have fun together tonight. It's been a while since we had some excitement together."
Their voices were exceptionally loud, and half the crew members overheard them.
Su Xue Qing was furious, so angry that she grabbed a pile of prop swords and rushed forward.
Qin Yexuan stopped her.
"They will pay the price soon!"
