Chapter 72 - Drinking (2/2)
“Jiang Zhi’s ankle was swollen when she was filming a martial arts scene a while ago. She filmed until dawn every day and never complained about being tired!”
Yin Yue could hear director Zheng’s sarcasm and belittlement. When she saw Jiang Zhi, she could not help but say deliberately, “She is obviously a manager, but has ended up filming more scenes than her own artiste. If this gets out, the netizens will think that the threshold of the entertainment industry is rubbish and anyone can get in!”
Jiang Zhi narrowed her eyes and glanced at her from the corner of her eyes. She asked, “The threshold of the entertainment industry is indeed low. Otherwise, how could you get in?
“Oh, you probably don’t know yet. The Internet has revealed that your private life is in chaos. I wonder if it was done by Zhang He’s new lover. Do you want to go and ask?”
Jiang Zhi lightly retorted a few words, and Yin Yue’s breathing immediately became difficult.
She nervously fiddled with her phone and saw the screen full of negative comments. She quickly dialed Zhang He’s number, but no one picked up!
Yin Yue looked down angrily, venting her current frustration on Jiang Zhi.
She recalled the words Jiang Lu had instigated, and a malicious thought surfaced in her mind!
If Jiang Zhi was seriously injured like Yu Wan, the role of the third female lead in “Beacon” would be completely vacant, and no one else would replace her!
Yin Yue secretly schemed. She deliberately took the opportunity to peek at Jiang Zhi’s script while filming. She learned that she was going to shoot the scene of the assassination of the male lead that involved a scene that included jumping off a building to escape!
What a great opportunity to get injured!
The corners of Yin Yue’s lips curled up as she returned to the resting room.
When she was in the hospital, she rummaged through the prescription for sleeping pills prescribed by the doctor. She crushed it into fine powder with a Thermos flask. Then, she sent her new assistant to the city to buy two bottles of extremely strong liquor and mixed the sleeping pills into them.
That night, Yin Yue gently knocked on the door of the props team’s Master Xu. “Master Xu, is it convenient? I have something to talk to you about!”
Master Xu looked at her in confusion, but Yin Yue took the initiative to display the two bottles of good wine. She naturally spread out a few dishes and pretended to be sad.
“I don’t have many friends in the production team. I know that Master Xu and I are from the same place. I wanted to come and chat with you. You won’t chase me away, right?”
“This…”
Master Xu scratched his head foolishly. He remembered Director Zheng’s advice and said hesitantly, “We’re filming an important scene tomorrow. Don’t drink now.”
Yin Yue was secretly annoyed. Very quickly, her eyes turned red as she urged, “I know that you can hold your drink. It won’t make any difference. Moreover, I bought the wine from the city. The taste is mellow. It definitely won’t have any lasting effects!
“Let me toast to you first.”
Yin Yue covered her red lips with her hand and secretly poured the liquor out.
Master Xu finally let down his guard and drank two or three glasses with her, then passed out in the room..
