Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 254: Chapter 251: Fury

The effects of public relations were minimal; basically, everyone was waiting for her to make a statement.

Wen Xian felt unbearably uncomfortable.

She was weak all over, her head was heavy, and her throat swollen and painful.

The general discomfort brought about by the fever was one thing, but every part of her body ached as well.

In her haze, Wen Xian seemed to even start hallucinating.

She was jostled continuously, her shoulder blades repeatedly slammed against the car door frame.

It hurt so much.

The rain seemed to pour heavily, almost engulfing her entirely.

Breathing became difficult.

“…Lu Xiao…”

She murmured weakly.

The voice was soft, yet so frail, and it carried an undertone of pleading.

As Jin Ling paced anxiously around the room, suddenly, a sound came from the bed, and her gaze snapped over to it.

At the same time.

Hurried and urgent footsteps also came quickly from the corridor outside the door.

Heading straight for their room.

Just as Jin Ling was about to check on Wen Xian, an urgent knocking came from the door, thud, thud, thud—!

The director’s voice came through the door, “Jin Ling! Hurry up and open the door!”

Hearing the knock, Jin Ling grew angry, stood up, and walked over.

Wen Xian seemed to be disturbed by the noise too, frowning slightly as her consciousness began to clear.

After taking a deep breath, Jin Ling opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, and she saw seven or eight people standing outside, her face darkened. They tried to enter, but Jin Ling stepped out and slammed the door shut.

She then blocked the doorway firmly and hissed angrily:

“Have you all gone mad? Are so many of you here to start a fight?”

She looked around and saw that apart from Cheng Dongyuan, a director, a screenwriter, and several inconsequential people, including Cheng Dongyuan’s cousin—Cheng Feiyu—were present.

Feiyu was smirking coldly, chin slightly raised, as if waiting to watch a good show.

But Cheng Dongyuan’s expression was stern as he frowned deeply:

“How is she doing, is her fever serious?”

At these words, Cheng Feiyu’s eyes widened:

“Brother, you actually believe she has a fever!? Did she know she’d be exposed and is now hiding and deceiving us on purpose? Otherwise, how could the timing be so coincidental!”

She had just mentioned a fever, and then she was exposed online—it must have been deliberate!

“Shut up, you didn’t need to come here, now get out immediately.”

Cheng Dongyuan’s face grew angrier,

“Brother, you’re telling me to leave!? Why should I go? I still want to curse her out! Look at what she’s done, whether it’s even human. Miss Fang, such a gentle woman, and she was beaten down by her on the ground.

My god, she may be naturally vile, but can’t she consider the film crew for once! With her acting like this, everything we’ve shot before is ruined, this movie is completely—”

“Will you leave, or not!?”

Cheng Dongyuan suddenly raised his hand, glaring at her intensely.

This scene shocked everyone present.

Feiyu’s eyes were filled with astonishment, but more so, her face turned red and then white in quick succession.

Though the slap didn’t fall, being threatened in front of everyone like this was enough to make her face burn.

She had nowhere to hide her embarrassment.

Seeing that Cheng Dongyuan was truly rarely this angry, director Li Xun immediately hushed the others around him, “Who told all of you to come along—”
