She flashed him a smile. “When did you come over, anyway? I thought you’re in your waiting room.”
“Shishi!” The sight of the actress pulled him out of his distraction. He walked up to her right away, clutched her shoulders, and asked gravely, “Do you have some sort of feud with Yan Bingqing?”
“…”
“I don’t usually pay much attention to the gossip circulating in showbiz, but I have a vague impression of a slapping incident occurring during the filming of ‘The Green Apple’. Even though Huanyu took measures to make that scandal die down quickly… Anyway, does her disappearance from the industry have something to do with you?”
She stared at him with puzzlement.
“Why did you suddenly mention her?”
“I suspect that Ji Yan is Yan Bingqing. She might’ve returned to get back at you.” He revealed his worries to her. “I’m worried for you.”
Ji Yan is Yan Bingqing?
The woman could not help but be surprised by this.
“Are you sure about that?” she questioned.
Hua Jin shook his head. “I don’t have any evidence to prove it, but my sixth sense is telling me that she’s planning to do something to you.”
“What do you mean?”
“I’m no longer my past self. After ending things with Lin Xueya, I don’t have anyone to back me up. I want to protect you, but… I’m afraid that I’m unable to do so. You have to keep your distance from Ji Yan. I’m really worried that she’ll harm you.”
Despite feeling somewhat surprised by how worried he was, she told him in a soothing voice, “Fret not. Even if she has the intention to harm me, she won’t have the chance to do so.”
The idol was baffled by her reply.
“That’s because I’m planning to quit showbiz.” She calmly explained. “Once I settle the work at hand, I’ll announce my retirement from the industry and stay at home to look after my husband and children.”
Nevertheless, a trace of concern still showed on his face. “That… doesn’t assuage my worries, though…”
“Don’t worry; I’ll keep my distance from her.” She smiled. “Besides, we only meet on set and I have you by my side even on the days you don’t have a filming schedule. What’s there to be afraid of when I have you around?”
He felt much at ease upon hearing that, and he told her with great determination, “Rest assured; I’ll protect you closely at all times!”
“Pfft!” It got her chuckling in amusement. “You make it sound as if Ji Yan’s a demon who will charge in here and stab me with a knife at the next second!”
“There’s no harm in being cautious. If she really turns out to be Yan Bingqing, I’m afraid that she’ll try to do you in.”
“Okay, chill. I’ll keep my guards up around her.”
Only then did the idol feel slightly relieved.
Things were peaceful as usual in the production team over the following days with the idol following Yun Shishi around closely. It was just that, after that spat with Ji Yan, she had not once appeared on set.
According to the director, she had applied for medical leave and, since she did not have any filming scheduled for these few days, she was allowed to rest at home.
During the days of her absence, things had pretty much settled down within the production team. The idol no longer heard the crew discussing those absurd rumors, so he thought that that was the end to the matter.
However, one day, a piece of shocking news was published online, and it instantly sparked a wave of sensation in the entertainment industry.
