Chapter 786: Chapter 786 Who Dares to Disrespect Him_1
On their way to the film set, Cheng Bingbing kept her head down, silent, and picking at her fingers.
She didn’t say a word until Xia Qingtian dropped her off at the set.
Xia Qingtian parked the car and glanced at Cheng Bingbing. Seeing her lost in thought and apparently unaware that they had arrived at the set, she asked, "Is there something you want to tell me?"
Cheng Bingbing suddenly snapped out of it and bit her lower lip. She seemed to have made up her mind and lifted her head.
"Yes," she nodded heavily, "Sister Qingtian, I need your help with something."
Xia Qingtian raised an eyebrow. It seemed like she guess correctly, Bingbing did have something on her mind. She doubted her understanding of Cheng Bingbing when she remained silent all the way here.
"Tell me what it is. If I can help, I definitely will," she promised.
Cheng Bingbing politely began, "I would like to ask you and Bo Jingyan to, if you can, provide some protection for Qilin."
"Why?" Xia Qingtian asked, knitting her brows.
Cheng Bingbing, in hopes of making her take the matter seriously, said, "Because I suspect that Qilin’s recent car accident was not an accident, but an intentional act of revenge. I fear that this person might harm Qilin again."
She hasn’t yet agreed to the hateful demand of that man. Huo Qilin is someone who she had admired for a long time and she had no intention of agreeing to the man’s demands and leaving Qilin.
However, she feared that the man might do something even more horrible again and she didn’t want to implicate Huo Qilin.
"Ah?" Xia Qingtian looked at Cheng Bingbing in surprise.
Cheng Bingbing looked serious and didn’t seem to be joking.
She hesitantly asked, "Do you know who is trying to harm Qilin?"
If she knew, maybe Bo Jingyan could intervene. To put it plainly, Bo Jingyan had some weight in A City, and people would generally respect him to a certain degree.
If the other party didn’t give face to Bo Jingyan, there was still the Huo Family.
Huo Qilin’s older brother, Huo Qichen, was a person who was feared in both the legitimate and underworld, and combined, they could turn A City upside down.
"I don’t know." Cheng Bigbing bit her lip.
She truly didn’t know, and wasn’t trying to conceal anything from Xia Qingtian. She only knew what that man looked like, she didn’t know his name or what he did, or anything else.
The only thing she can confirm is that the identity of that man is definitely not simple.
Xia Qingtian thought the conversation sounded absurd, but looking at Bingbing’s expression, it didn’t seem like she was lying. She probably really didn’t know.
"Is this the reason you’ve been distraught lately?" she asked Cheng Bingbing.
"Yes." Cheng Bingbing didn’t deny it, seeing that she had guessed correctly.
Xia Qingtian still had many questions to ask her, but now was not the time to talk. The entire film crew was waiting for her to start work.
"Alright, I will talk to Jingyan about this. We won’t give anyone the chance to harm Qilin." She assured Cheng Bingbing.
Cheng Bingbing had always trusted her. Now with her reassurance, she finally relaxed, "Sister Qingtian, thank you. Don’t worry, I will focus on filming and will not cause any more trouble for the film crew and you."
Now that she had thought it through, the only thing she couldn’t lose was Huo Qilin. She wasn’t afraid of anything else.
Now that Xia Qingtian had promised to help protect Huo Qilin, there was nothing else that man could threaten her with.
"Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You’ve done very well before, it’s just that you’ve been under a lot of pressure recently. If you can find your previous state, there won’t be any problems," Xia Qingtian comforted her, not wanting to give her too much pressure.
Cheng Bingbing nodded.
"Sister Qingtian, please take care of Qilin." She reminded her once more before getting out of the car and heading to the film set.
After she left, Xia Qingtian didn’t waste any time and directly dialed Bo Jingyan’s number. Once the call connected, without any unnecessary chit-chat, she relayed Cheng Bingbing’s request.
In any case, with the relationship she had with Bo Jingyan, there was no distinction between each other and she wasn’t afraid of causing him trouble.
After Bo Jingyan agreed, he ambiguously said, "You really do care about Huo Qilin."
Xia Qingtian could clearly hear the jealousy in his tone and was at a loss for words.
She knew that Bo Jingyan wasn’t really jealous. Even if she asked him to protect others, he would probably get jealous. He wanted her world to revolve around him alone.
This time she didn’t explain again that her relationship with Huo Qilin was purely that of a superior and subordinate, as well as friends.
"Jingyan, you’re really good to me, I’m falling in love with you more and more." Xia Qingtian suddenly said out of the blue.
At these words, Bo Jingyan paused, then his voice softened like melting snow, "Hmm, I’m falling more in love with you too."
Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but laugh. Now she had Bo Jingyan completely figured out. This test was easily passed and she continued to sweet-talk with Bo Jingyan for a while before getting ready to hang up.
Before she hung up, she suddenly remembered something, "Oh, and please help me investigate who was behind Huo Qilin’s car accident this time."
"Alright." Bo Jingyan agreed.
...
Since Cheng Bingbing had come to a decision and didn’t want to cause trouble for everyone while filming, she soon regained her composure.
She even performed better than before.
It only took a few days for her to regain her previous state.
The previous delay in the filming schedule was entirely made up for, and some progress even finished ahead of time. Due to these reasons, any dissatisfaction the director may have had evaporated.
After a few days of working overtime, the director knew that she was also tired and decided to finish early today.
Cheng Bingbing was incredibly happy.
Finishing early meant that she could visit Huo Qilin in the hospital.
Although she visited Huo Qilin in the hospital every day after finishing work, her finish times were usually late and Huo Qilin’s awake periods were limited due to his injuries.
She arrived at the hospital late every night and often found Huo Qilin already asleep. Even if he was awake, he could only say a few words before dozing off again.
Since she finished work early today, she should be able to talk more with Huo Qilin.
She removed her makeup, changed her clothes, and was about to hail a cab to the hospital when...
Beep beep...
The sound of a honking car startled Cheng Bingbing.
She turned her head towards the sound and saw a familiar car parked not far away. The car window rolled down, and the bright and generous face of Xia Qingtian appeared.
