Following the sound, I saw a strange and weird Taoist priest standing next to the young assistant.

Taoist priest?

Where do the Taoist priests in spy war dramas come from?

Luo Jian glared at him: "Who are you?"

"ah?"

Xia Chi was a little confused when he was suddenly questioned by the director.

Are you asking me to introduce myself?

"Oh, hello, Director. My name is Xia Chi, and I'm an actor. Director Du Binquan introduced me to this..."

The skill of speaking is also about doing two things at the same time.

[It turns out that the huge crowd outside is all coming for Jiang Nan...]

[No wonder, he was the most crazy fan during the talent show.]

[I heard that a while ago, a stalker hacked into the airline system and tampered with Jiang Nan's flight information, forcing him to sit next to himself in business class. This ended up delaying the entire team's schedule. Tsk tsk...]

【Could this be the reason why I was late last time? 】

It's so sad.

Luo Jian: “!!!”

He heard it, he was sure he heard it.

"Du Binquan..."

Luo Jian remembered that Du Binquan had mentioned to him during dinner a few days ago that there was a young man in his crew who had some supernatural powers and was a bit weird. He could tell fortunes and deduce things, and people with a predestined relationship could even hear his inner voice.

At that time, Luo Jian thought Du Binquan was drunk, so he casually replied: Bring the person here for me to see.

Could it be him...

Luo Jian froze in place. Seeing that his expression was not right, the assistant came over and gently pushed him.

"Director? What's wrong, Director?"

"It's okay."

My back feels so cold.

This Taoist priest really said the same thing as Du Binquan. You can hear him talking without him opening his mouth.

I heard it's an auspicious sign...

Xia Chi, who was standing next to him, saw that the director didn't say anything for a long time, and thought that he was so angry that he couldn't take care of him, so he stood aside quietly, continuing to think about Jiang Nan's matter in his heart.

How could he be late? Did something happen?

Xia Chi's fingers unconsciously groped the cuffs of his Taoist robe, and he began to calculate without making a sound.

The director watched carefully and quietly.

[Holy crap…something actually happened.]

Xia Chi suddenly opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth wide enough to fit a big goose.

Last night, around 2:00 AM, while Jiang Nan was sleeping in the hotel, someone suddenly crawled out from under the bed!!! That pervert somehow managed to get into the room, waited for Jiang Nan to fall asleep, and then crawled right into the covers!

[The 5'8" tall man's hair stood on end as he grabbed a lamp to defend himself...]

He pinched his fingers faster and faster, and his expression became uglier.

[Calling the police, checking surveillance cameras, taking notes...it took until eight in the morning.]

[That stalker cried and made a scene, but in the end, he just wrote an apology letter and that was it?!]

[Jiang Nan hadn't slept all night, and even skipped breakfast before rushing over to put on makeup...]

Luo Jian: “…”

So many things happened...

But there's still time to go there and put on makeup at 8 o'clock, so why did it take so long?

【What?】

[The makeup shop is surrounded by illegitimate fans again! ]

After finally finishing my makeup and getting in the car to rush to the set, six other cars of illegitimate children immediately followed behind me! It was a fast and furious scene on the highway!

Xia Chi took a breath of cold air.

[Oh my god! The stalker actually cut in on me just to force me to stop the car and look at him! The door of the car Jiang Nan was riding in was dented!!!]

【!!! 】

Xia Chi's eyes widened.

Luo Jian's eyes also widened.

This... is too crazy!

[Oh my god! Is he okay? Is he injured?]

[Wait… His left arm is injured? But in order not to delay filming, he insisted that the crew keep the injury a secret and rush over in a different car…]

Xia Chi felt a tightness in his chest.

[I knew Jiang Nan wouldn't be late for no reason!!!]

I'm worried about what life is like on this crappy crew! I'm scared, chased, bumped into, scolded by the director, smeared by marketing accounts, and cyberbullied by trolls...

The director even posted a lewd post on his WeChat Moments. I had to apologize humbly, and the apology letter he wrote was even longer than the one the stalker wrote!!

[I’m so angry!!!]

Xia Chi looked at Luo Jian with a look that seemed to contain a knife.

Luo Jian was sweating profusely and turned his head away, not daring to look him in the eye.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the door, and the crowd parted like a tide. Several assistants escorted a tall figure who walked slowly towards them.

Jiang Nan.

He was still as exquisite as a work of art, his jaw was as finely outlined as a brush, his nose bridge was like the ridge of a distant mountain, and the most captivating thing was his eyes, with the inner corners of his eyes slightly drooping and the outer corners raised in a beautiful arc. A haze was swept under his thick eyelashes, and when he smiled, his eye bags appeared, like a small boat filled with amber light.

He was like a ray of light, illuminating Xia Chi's miserable life.

Xia Chi often couldn't help thinking that this person was so good, so good that he suddenly felt that he had something to rely on in his life. He wanted to see him safe and happy, wanted to see him live a long life, wanted to see him favored by the world, and wanted to see him run towards his grassland like a horse.

But when Xia Chi met those amber eyes, his heart trembled suddenly.

Time and space are divided.

The boy in my memory is holding a guitar, looking up and smiling, his clear singing voice is filled with the light of the Milky Way. At that time, even his breathing was filled with burning vitality, as if he could pick the moon with his hand.

But at this moment, Jiang Nan's eyes were filled with vigilance and fatigue, with occasional flashes of fluctuations, showing his vigilance against those approaching.

He was doing what he was supposed to do at the moment like a puppet, with his eyebrows curved politely and a standard business smile on his lips, but his hands hidden under his suit jacket were awkwardly curled inward.

"I'm sorry everyone, there was an accident on the road. I'm late and have delayed everyone."

As Jiang Nan entered the room, he bowed deeply. His voice was very soft, which sounded particularly harsh against the strange cries of the illegitimate child outside the window.

The atmosphere on the set was still tense.

The crew is full of award-winning actors and veteran actors. The female lead Shi Lu is also a popular young actress who debuted in a girl group. There is also Zhou Xu, who is from the same company as Jiang Nan. None of them is easy to get along with.

As expected, the veteran actor Gao Yuanshan, his temples graying, stood up angrily and scolded him with full force, "Why are you late again? You've already impacted the entire crew's progress, don't you know? Just because you're famous, you can do whatever you want? I've seen many big names, and those who made it to the end all relied on their character and work. Is having traffic a big deal?"

These words were very harsh, and the tips of Jiang Nan's ears instantly turned red. He took a deep breath and apologized to everyone again: "I'm really sorry, it's my fault for not making arrangements well."

"Just say sorry and it's over. Time is money, time is life. You're being disrespectful to all the staff on the team, and even more so..."

Gao Yuanshan was about to make a big deal out of it when someone next to him suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

"Old Gao——"

The director, uncharacteristically kind, acted like a peacemaker. "Calm down, calm down. Jiang Nan was late today for a reason. These fans... sasaengs are too outrageous. They even did something as dangerous as a car chase."

Gao Yuanshan: “???”

What's this about illegitimate children? What's this about car chases? Did we mention this already?

Why has Luo Jian changed? Doesn’t he hate people being late the most?

Oh, that's not right! It was you who was so angry that you slammed the table and threw things, okay?

I play the good guy and you play the bad guy, right? You old fox...

As expected, emotions are selective. Director Luo Jian no longer had any temper and walked silently to Jiang Nan's side.

"Let me see, is it hurt anywhere?"

The atmosphere was a little tense. Jiang Nan was stunned for a moment. Director Luo had always been very strict with him, and his sudden concern made him feel a little overwhelmed. "I'm fine, Director."

"Hey, you can't let your guard down just because you're young. Let me see..."

Luo Jian surprisingly found his injured arm accurately, pulled it over without saying a word, and gently rolled up his sleeves.

The shocking purple bruises were exposed under the light, and everyone around him immediately gasped.

Luo Jian: “…”

The divine beast never deceives me!!!

Gao Yuanshan's expression changed: "This..."

Jiang Nan subconsciously wanted to retract his arm: "It's just a few bruises. It looks scary, but it's actually not that serious. It won't affect filming..."

[Even with broken bones, he's still trying to be strong...]

[Don't you feel any pain? I also did this when I was a trainee and ended up with a back injury.]

[Ah, it's still that Jiang Nan, he doesn't know how to feel sorry for himself at all...]

There was a voice beside me sighing silently.

who?

Who is speaking?

Jiang Nan looked in the direction of the voice and saw an unexpected figure in the crowd.

He was a young Taoist priest with a loose bun on his head and a few strands of hair hanging down at the side of his neck. His indigo Taoist robe looked out of place in the uniform atmosphere of the Republic of China.

What was even more bizarre was that although he was clearly standing in the crowd, he seemed to have his own barrier, and even the light from above his head seemed particularly cold when it fell on him.

The Taoist's eyes were fixed on his injured arm, as if he was heartbroken and thoughtful.

Jiang Nan felt a little strange.

Is this... a human or a ghost?

"Ahem."

Director Luo Jian coughed lightly, his tone unusually gentle: "Listen to me, be cautious, and go to the hospital immediately to take an X-ray."

Jiang Nan: "But the director..."

"No buts." Luo Jian interrupted him, "Your injury clearly demands more than a day or two of delay. If it gets worse, it will delay the production. The crew can adjust the filming schedule and shoot other scenes first."

Jiang Nan was surprised.

Director Luo obviously took the Taoist priest's words to heart...

Does this Taoist have such magical powers that he can tell that the hand is broken at a glance?

Luo Jian instructed his assistant: "Arrange a car immediately. You go to the Central Hospital with me. Contact me immediately if anything happens."

【You can’t go to the Central Hospital! 】

The Taoist priest's voice exploded in Jiang Nan's ears again.

The news that Jiang Nan was chased by a stalker in a car has exploded online, with the hashtag #姜南车负# quickly becoming a trending search.

The attention of all major media outlets has been drawn, and fans' emotions are also fermenting. Going to the Central Hospital with such fanfare at this time is just adding fuel to the fire.

As soon as they arrived at the hospital, they were surrounded by zombies. All the major entertainment media outlets followed suit. The paparazzi didn't care about medical procedures, and they were ready to shove their cannons into the doctors' faces just to get exclusive photos. Real patients couldn't get appointments, and the emergency room was overcrowded. If that got out, it would be negative news.

【What’s even more terrifying is that group of illegitimate children...】

Xia Chi gritted his teeth.

[Last time, a pervert stole a nurse's uniform and sneaked into the ward, then used the excuse of taking an artist's temperature to feel him up all over. And there was even one more outrageous person who put secretly taken X-rays up for auction online! ]

Jiang Nan: “!!!”

How do you know so much?

Luo Jian: “…”

Yes, yes, I was confused. This matter really should not be publicized. We need to keep a low profile.

Luo Jian was afraid but also relieved. He was relieved that Xiangrui had revealed the secret and prevented him from scolding Jiang Nan and then going to work with an injury. If the bone fracture was exposed one day, not to mention the guilt, he would be cyber-bullied to death.

Luo Jian changed the subject: "Wait a minute, I've thought about it. Going to the Central Hospital will attract too much attention. I know a very famous orthopedic surgeon. His private clinic is on Shengli Road. I'll ask my assistant to take you..."

[It's over, it's over! Director, why don't you tell me the exact location? You're sending sheep to wolves!]

[Speaking out would be like leaking information. There are spies and paparazzi on the set, and the local tyrants will resell the information!]

Jiang Nan's pupils shrank.

A secret spy?

Paparazzi?

Luo Jian: “???”

Is it that serious?

He didn't speak loudly just now, and he was sure that only a few staff members around him could hear it.

Is there a traitor among these people?

[There’s a traitor, Director! ! ! !]

Xia Chi could hardly hold it in any longer.
