Chapter 311: The Situation Has Worsened
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Yi Xiao had left a few of the bodyguards in the CCTV room watching the ICU. A nurse wearing a white robe and mask appeared to be walking towards Jia Qing’s unit.
One of the guards checked the manifest that he’d gotten from the nurse’s station, which had all the nurses’ shifts on it.
He noticed that the nurse was not following the shift time that was written on the manifest.
The nurse crept up to the ICU and into Jia Qing’s unit.
Jia Qing lay on the bed with a few wires and tubes attached to him as an IV dripped slowly.
His face, neck, and arm were too messed up to be recognized as human flesh.
The nurse looked at Jia Qing with a disgusted expression and took a syringe from the tray. The needle shone like a blade under the dim moonlight.
Inside the syringe was pure arsenic trioxide that was intended to mix with the IV.
Jia Qing would die in an instant.
Since the nurse was using the same poison from the incident, everyone would just think that he’d died from the accident.
The nurse injected the poison into the IV and left the unit quietly.
...
Bad news came from the hospital the next day, as Jia Qing’s family came to the hospital crying and shouting.
They were looking for the people who were responsible for poisoning him.
And the news was speculating that it was Xu Xiyan who was responsible for his death.
The family was broken from Jia Qing’s death and put their blame on Xu Xiyan’s head.
They went to the studio demanding for her to face them, but they were told that Xu Xiyan had been taken away by the police.
They quickly went online and found out that she belonged to Jingyue Entertainment. All of Jia Qing’s family shifted their attention to the company.
...
The case was becoming more and more intense by the day.
Xu XIyan once again became the spotlight of a scandal.
The netizens were commenting that they’d been tricked by Xu Xiyan’s pure looks.
Now, the title “murderer” hung on her head.
“Root of Evil” had taken a break once again. The only main actor that was left was the lead actor, and there was no way for the shooting to proceed.
“Did the police say when Jing Xi will be released?” Peng Sicheng asked.
“They told me that she’ll be released after the case has been solved,” Mr. Xing said.
Peng Sicheng would have to wait for days, maybe weeks before Xu Xiyan was released.
Without Xu Xiyan, Peng Sicheng had no idea how to continue his film. He began to wonder if fate was playing a role in this.
Just as Peng Sicheng was brainstorming on how he should proceed, his planner came running to his side.
“Director,” the planner shouted. “He Liang just sent Huang Yanran’s doctor’s approval over. Doesn’t that mean we can continue with our agenda?”
