Chapter 276 - 276 277 Repaying Tenfold (6)_1
?Chapter 276: Chapter 277: Repaying Tenfold (6)_1 Chapter 276: Chapter 277: Repaying Tenfold (6)_1 Liang Chen only said two words before his hand suddenly reached out, grasping Jing Haohao’s chin, turning her face up and analyzing it for a moment. His voice was deep as he asked, “Who hit you?”
The filming location was chosen for its outdoor setting. Lights were aimed directly at the actors. But because of the altercation between Jing Haohao and Zhou Nan, everyone had stopped their work, and the lights were left haphazardly.
Lacking the direct spotlight made it harder to see things clearly, her attacker might not have hit her very hard, or it could be because some time had passed, the imprint of fingers on her face seemed a bit faded. If Jing Haohao hadn’t been so close to Liang Chen right now, he probably would not have noticed these details.
Jing Haohao might come from a humble background, appear gentle and delicate, but she had a sense of pride deep inside. She must be feeling embarrassed about being slapped in a bar and being seen by him, and now being slapped again and again witnessed by him. Thinking of this, Liang Chen’s eyebrows furrowed together slowly. No wonder she had been avoiding his gaze all along, no wonder her face was filled with a wronged expression.
So it was because of this…
Initially, when he arrived at the film set, seeing both Zhou Nan and Jing Haohao covered in mud, with such different treatments, he was already somewhat displeased. Now, seeing the faint finger marks on Jing Haohao’s face, Liang Chen, who was already on the edge of anger, became even more furious.
Liang Chen didn’t bother to wait for Jing Haohao to speak, he turned his head directly, stared at the director, and asked, “Who laid a hand on her?”
Even though Liang Chen’s tone sounded casual, the director could still sense the dissatisfaction in his voice. He tried to steady himself and said, “This is just… an accident during filming…”
Standing aside and seemingly listening seriously, Liang Chen interrupted the director before he could even finish his sentence, his gaze sharply turning towards the director.
Caught in that gaze, the director retreated involuntarily, stopped his earlier remarks, and answered honestly, “Zhou… Zhou Nan.”
Liang Chen casually put on his coat, appearing nonchalant and relaxed.
The director, however, was frightened into silence. He kept regretting his decision. Why on earth had he allowed Jing Haohao to be part of his crew? If he had known earlier that she was Liang Chen’s woman, he would’ve never turned a blind eye when Zhou Nan targeted her.
Zhou Nan was the lead actress of the drama. If Liang Chen really caused a fuss, if something happened to Zhou Nan and she was unable to film, would his show not be able to make its scheduled release?
The director pondered for a while then continued speaking hastily, “Actually, it was all a misunderstanding. In dramas, slapping scenes are common. Zhou Nan thought it was her turn to slap Miss Jing, so she hit Miss Jing. Then Miss Jing retaliated with a slap, and the two had a bit of a dispute.”
The director’s words were very vague, it sounded like the entire conflict happened because Jing Haohao had started a fight after getting hit by someone during filming.
