However, before she could walk further, a figure suddenly emerged from the side and blocked her path. Xia Xianning calmly reminded, “That’s enough.”
Although his tone was not harsh, Deng Xinjia inexplicably felt nervous. Meeting his gaze, she involuntarily shrank back.
“What’s going on?”
At this moment, Ou Ziheng had just finished shooting a scene.
Although he was on set, he was constantly stealing glances at Xia Xianning and Luo Mingbai out of concern for his own safety, which had earned him several scoldings from the director.
After the scene finally ended, Ou Ziheng saw that something seemed to be brewing and immediately rushed over – he was determined to perform well in front of Master Luo and prove that he had truly turned over a new leaf!
Deng Xinjia saw him and her expression brightened. She immediately went to meet him: “Young Master Ou…”
She originally wanted to complain, but just as her emotions were building up, she was stunned to find that Ou Ziheng was not looking at her at all. Instead, he was smiling broadly at Luo Mingbai: “Master Luo, you’re here.”
He then turned to Xia Xianning: “And Captain Xia, thank you so much. Once this is over, I will definitely thank you both properly.”
Secretly glancing at Xia Xianning’s expression and unable to discern what had happened, he feared Deng Xinjia might say something inappropriate. Carefully, he repeated, “What exactly happened?”
Luo Mingbai smiled and said, “Nothing much. My friend has sprained her ankle. If it’s convenient for Mr. Ou, could you lend an assistant to help her rest nearby?”
But now he couldn’t just abandon her midway. Since the conversation had come to this point, he might as well borrow Ou Ziheng’s assistance.
Ou Ziheng eagerly agreed. Xia Xianning frowned and said, “Let’s go.”
His frown scared Ou Ziheng. He watched Luo Mingbai and Xia Xianning walk shoulder to shoulder, feeling relieved once they were not too far away. Turning back, he met Deng Xinjia’s anxious gaze.
Ou Ziheng was already frustrated, and this woman asked, “What’s wrong? Didn’t you hate that Luo guy?”
