Chapter 451: It Was Not an Accident
While An Sui was lecturing the props team, Song Qingyou had already returned to her room with the cat.
She kept thinking about what had happened before.
When she saw the cat tree about to collapse, Song Qingyou even forgot that the cat was agile and smart. Even if it fell from the second floor, it might be fine.
Not to mention the ladder, which was only about one floor high.
But what was she thinking at that time?
Other than ensuring that nothing happened to Jiang Zhihan, she didn’t have any other thoughts.
It had been a long time since she had lost her cool.
Even when she heard that Shen Xiyan was the real culprit who caused the Song family to go bankrupt, her emotions did not fluctuate so much.
So-
Was Jiang Zhihan very important to her?
Song Qingyou silently opened the door, absentmindedly put down the cat in her arms, and sat on the living room sofa without moving.
Jiang Zhihan walked into the study room, jumped onto the desk, and turned on his tablet.
Seeing that Song Qingyou hadn’t followed him, he closed the note and opened the V-mail. He used his paw to send her a message:
[This is not an accident.]
Her phone vibrated, and Song Qingyou’s attention was finally drawn back.
She glanced at the message and entered the study.
“I know it wasn’t an accident.” Song Qingyou sorted out the thoughts in her mind and kicked away the unimportant emotional side.
“An Sui should have noticed that the ladder has been tampered with. A few of the screws are loose.”
Jiang Zhihan typed, [Call the police?]
“It’s useless to call the police.” Song Qingyou shook her head. “If there was really an accident and someone was injured or killed, it might still be useful, but nothing happened now, right?”
After a pause, she asked curiously, “Do you think… Who was the target of this incident? You? Me? An Sui?
“Or the entire crew?”
Before Jiang Zhihan could answer, she gave her own answer, “Both are possible.”
Someone might have thought that Song Qingyou loved her cat and that if something happened to her cat, she would definitely run to save it. If she fell down, there was a high chance that Song Qingyou would be injured.
As for Jiang Zhihan, the reason was the same. Some people thought that Jiang Zhihan would save Song Qingyou and then get into an accident.
To target An Sui, it was just like when the movie had just started shooting. Someone wanted to make a move and firmly bind An Sui to the ‘jinx’ label.
No matter who it was, it would affect the entire production team.
Song Qingyou rubbed her chin, thinking about the probability that the person behind the scenes was still Shen Xiyan.
At first, Jiang Zhihan had the same thought as Song Qingyou.
However, he had been following Song Qingyou all this time and was also a cat that didn’t understand anything in the eyes of others. Naturally, he knew that the people that Shen Xiyan had arranged to come over had actually been chased away.
If the person behind the scenes was not Shen Xiyan, then it would not be Song Qingyou and An Sui, but him.
Very few people knew that he had boarded this cruise ship, including Fang Yan, his grandfather, and Jiang Quan.
Fang Yan would never do such a thing.
Grandfather wouldn’t want his life.
The only person who could make a move was Jiang Quan.
But the question was, how did Jiang Quan do it?
Before this, he didn’t even know about Song Qingyou’s existence.
The day he met Song Qingyou, they boarded the Pearl.
How did Jiang Quan bribe the crew?
Jiang Zhihan thought for a while and finally suspected Yu Muhuai.
The crew was gossiping about his relationship with Song Qingyou. He didn’t believe that Yu Muhuai hadn’t heard of it.
Yu Muhuai suspected that he liked Qingyou and knew that Qingyou was very skilled… This way, he had the motive to commit the crime.
If Yu Muhuai really did it, Jiang Zhihan couldn’t be sure if he had anything to do with Jiang Quan. Moreover, Song Qingyou might not believe him.
Jiang Zhihan thought about it and decided not to tell Song Qingyou. Instead, he sent a message to Fang Yan, asking him to check Jiang Quan’s whereabouts in the past six months. The main point was to find out who he had contacted or met.
Song Qingyou had no clue. She glanced up and saw Jiang Zhihan’s message.
“You suspect… Mr. Jiang?”
The cat on the table nodded calmly as if it was answering a question about the weather.
Song Qingyou pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
She knew that Jiang Zhihan suspected Jiang Quan directly. Jiang Quan must be capable of doing such a thing.
As a father who wanted to kill his own son, it was obvious that Jiang Zhihan had a hard time.
Jiang Zhihan and Song Qingyou were even more suspicious of Jiang Quan.
On the other side, An Sui didn’t think Jiang Zhihan was the culprit. He thought Shen Xiyan had played dirty again.
On the surface, he insisted that what happened in the theater was an accident, but in fact, he had already asked his assistant to recruit new people.
Regardless of whether most of the props team members were innocent, An Sui was determined to fire them.
Otherwise, who in the production team would work in peace?
Apart from that, An Sui also called home.
He decisively changed the victim of the collapse of the miter ladder to himself. Then, he complained to his family and tactfully asked them if they could completely terminate the cooperation with the Shen Corporation.
Even if his parents might not understand his subtext for a while, when the news of the accident on the set appeared on the trending searches tomorrow, they should understand what he meant.
After An Sui hung up the phone, he couldn’t wait to share the good news with Song Qingyou. At the same time, he asked her to inform Lin Xuyang to be ready to engage in a large-scale partnership project at any time.
Song Qingyou didn’t expect such a pleasant surprise, and she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, ‘Sure enough, you can’t do bad things. You might not be found out if you do bad things, but the victim might be hit by a pie from the sky:
Out of curiosity about how An Sui did it, Song Qingyou, who didn’t plan to go out again, met him at the outdoor cinema.
She also watched the second half of the last episode of the All-Class Challenge.
At the same time, the props team gathered in twos and threes to discuss what had happened tonight.
The Laws of Love was only a movie set in the modern era. There were only a few people who were part of the props team, but the lighting, stage crew, and set designers… Those who were related to props were all assigned to this group.
Thus, once an accident happened, An Sui couldn’t investigate them one by one.
No one in the team could reveal any clues.
“Will Director An fire us all? 1 heard from the crew that something similar happened when the filming started.”
“By the way, you can’t blame us for this, right? Didn’t the Internet say that Director An’s luck was especially bad?”
“Shh- not here.”
“Tonight’s accident was too scary. At that time, there were quite a few people sitting down there…Who is the person in charge of moving that shelf?”
“It seems to be Little Zhao and the others.”
Everyone looked at the few people in the corner with gloomy expressions.
“Hey, we’re not blaming you. The director said it was an accident…”
Someone kindly walked over to comfort him.
The person who had just sent the words ‘mission failed’ suddenly shook his hand, and his phone fell to the ground. He stood up with a whoosh and stepped on the phone with one foot, quietly increasing his strength.
The onlookers gasped and urged him to raise his feet..
