[R18] These men are poisonous – “These Men Are Poisonous” Chapter 179 [English]

Zuo Ning remembered that this was not the first time Gao Xia fell off his horse while filming.

She has seen the behind-the-scenes footage from the set before. Gao Xia’s riding skills are very good. He did all the riding scenes in person, without using a stand-in or relying on post-production special effects.

The last time he fell, he lay in the hospital for a month. What happened this time? The assistant was vague on the phone. He only said that it was not life-threatening and hung up.

In the end, Qiu Yibai came back from the phone call and told Zuo Ning that Gao Xia only had multiple soft tissue contusions and no vital injuries, but the real injuries needed to be kept secret.

At 8 o’clock in the evening, Star Entertainment’s official Weibo issued a statement stating that Gao Xia has a stable girlfriend, and that the rumors about his sexual orientation and chaotic private life are all rumors. The company has begun to sue those marketing accounts that slander Gao Xia.

In fact, most brokerage companies and celebrity studios will issue such statements. Some do not actually sue, and some do leave it to lawyers to defend their rights through legal means. However, the process is too complicated and too long. Even if the lawsuit is successful, it will be a long time later. By then, those slanderous words have already caused harm to the parties involved, so the results of the lawsuit will have little effect, and not many people will care about it anymore.

However, there is another more explosive content in Xingchen’s statement, which is that they bluntly pointed out that Gao Xia’s fall from the horse was caused by someone behind the scenes. The police have been involved in the investigation, and the two suspected crew members have also been taken away.

At the same time, the official blog of the crew also released a video of Gao Xia falling from his horse. The camera clearly recorded that it was because the other two frightened horses of the crew suddenly rushed out of the woods and hit the white horse Gao Xia was riding.

The video can only be seen that he fell far away from the horse and lay motionless on the ground until the staff rushed to check, and then hurriedly found a temporary stretcher to send him away from the scene. The specific injuries were unknown.

However, the crew announced that the horse was frightened due to human factors.

However, Xingchen’s statement said that Gao Xia’s injury was serious and he would need to rest for at least a year. Not only would the upcoming costume drama be unable to continue filming, but the studio would also discuss the termination of the contract for the next two dramas.

As soon as the statement and video came out, the Internet exploded again. The criticism that Gao Xia concealed his sexual orientation and deliberately deceived the public was quickly suppressed. Instead, netizens praised him for his dedicated filming, and sympathized with his identity as a victim. There were also various analyzes and theories: Who did Gao Xia block?

It has to be said that Xingchen used Gao Xia’s fall from a horse to make a fuss and minimize the damage to his reputation. This is already the most powerful public relations method under the current conditions.

But Zuo Ning is still a little puzzled: “Is it worth using Gao Xia’s one year’s working time in exchange for such a result? He wants to terminate the contract for two large-scale TV series.”

Qiu Yibai’s expression was still a little solemn: “It’s not just Gao Xia’s reputation that’s being exchanged, it’s also his life.”

Zuo Ning was stunned: “What do you mean? Did he fall from the horse really… was someone tampered with?”

Qiu Yibai nodded: “Otherwise Xingchen would not dare to make such a statement. If the truth is discovered, he will be digging his own grave. Taking the opportunity to avoid trouble is his only choice now.”

“Avoiding trouble? Who wants to harm Gao Xia? There is competition in the entertainment industry. It is normal to slander and smear someone online, but you wouldn’t kill someone in private, right?”

“Don’t be nervous. The bigger this thing gets, the less dangerous Gao Xia will be. No matter for his reputation or safety, it’s best to take advantage of his injuries to recuperate. What’s more…” Qiu Yibai sneered lowly, “That guy didn’t want to film for a long time. Now he wants to come back and stay by your side to avoid giving us the advantage. I also suspect that he fell off the horse on purpose.”

Seeing that he could still joke under such circumstances, Zuo Ning’s tense nerves gradually relaxed: “Anyway, you guys are all rich and willful.”

Qiu Yibai looked at her intently for a few seconds, then suddenly said: “You were so nervous when you heard that he fell from a horse today, are you…”

After hesitating for a moment, he finally changed his words: “If it were me who fell from the horse, would you be so nervous?”

Zuo Ning paused and smiled slightly: “I will. After all, you are all very good to me. I am not ungrateful and don’t even have the most basic concern.”

“So, there is only the most basic care left.” Qiu Yibai smiled bitterly, “Forget it, let’s not talk about it. You will be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow. Let’s talk about arranging bodyguards for you.”

“Bodyguard?”

Zuo Ning didn’t know who was secretly trying to deal with Gao Xia, but she was sure that Qiu Yibai and Qiu Yimo knew about it, but they didn’t want to tell, and she didn’t ask any more questions.

But judging from the fact that they insisted on arranging bodyguards for her, the situation seemed to be far more complicated than she imagined.

According to Qiu Yibai, all the photos were taken, and Zuo Ning and the apartment here were naturally exposed long ago. In case the other party used her relationship with Gao Xia to hurt her, someone still needed to protect her at all times.

This time, including Qiu Yimo, the behavior of the six men was rarely unified. Even the bodyguards were hired after consultation and were said to be the most powerful figures in the industry.

Because Gao Xia will stay in the hospital for a while and continue to recover from his injuries, which is true or false, and will not be able to come back for the time being, so the three bodyguards live in He’s newly renovated apartment.

The apartment is right next to Zuo Ning. If there is any trouble here, the security guards can easily detect it. Moreover, the three people installed positioning software on her mobile phone and changed her watch to one with a positioning system, just in case.

To be honest, Zuo Ning really hates the feeling of being watched, but she also cherishes her life, so she doesn’t dare to be pretentious about this matter. She will be obedient no matter what other people arrange.

It’s just that sometimes she also thinks, aren’t we all in a state of panic, right?Is the matter really that serious?

“I can’t make a conclusion on whether it’s serious or not, but it’s always right to plan for a rainy day.” Faced with she’s question, Qiu Yibai answered like this.

He, who was finally looking forward to the completion of the filming, has no plans to continue filming the TV series for the time being. He said that he will always be with Zuo Ning and not let Wen Kai’an and Fang Jinglun take the lead.

Yu Haonan also moved into this apartment at the same time as he. After Zhuer Group became the second largest shareholder of Lian Group, he seemed to be more and more idle. Sometimes he would not go to the company for the whole day, and would always find excuses to come to Zuo Ning’s place.

From then on, Zuo Ning once again realized the scheming of these men. He had tricked her into making the three-year agreement with them by saying that they were all very busy, but now each one was more idle than the other. They all knocked on her door when they had something to do, and even pretended to care about her injury.

On this day, when she couldn’t lie still and asked Fang Jinglun to accompany her downstairs to breathe fresh air on crutches, she met Qiu Yimo at the elevator entrance.

Seeing that he was holding a briefcase and keys in his hand, looking like he had just come home from get off work, Zuo Ning couldn’t help but his eyebrows were beating: “You… what… are you… here for?”

“Go home.” Qiu Yimo looked at her calmly, “I live in 2707.”
