âThe doctor said that I need to rest for a day or two. Director Xu also agreed, so I didnât go to the production team. Did your filming go smoothly? Itâs a pity that itâs already your wrap banquet the moment we meet.â
Lu Man thought that his words were watertight. Firstly, he could divert the trouble. Secondly, he could indirectly explain that he was absent today.
However, it was obvious that Ji Yan was not that easy to fool. He looked at Lu Man deeply and asked with a smile, ââMisunderstandingâ? What misunderstanding? Producer Ma helped you explain that you were sent to the hospital because you ate something bad yesterday. What does this have to do with Xia Wei? Can the misunderstanding of eating something bad be related to others?â
Ji Yan was really puzzled and looked at Lu Mian with confusion.
Ma Liang listened to Ji Yan talk about this silently. After looking at Lu Man with a complicated gaze, a trace of disgust flashed across his heart. He took a deep breath without batting an eyelid and a very stiff smile appeared on his face. âHurry up and stop talking about these unrelated matters. Take a seat! Everyone, eat.â
Lu Man naturally did not understand the deeper meaning behind Ma Liangâs actions. At this moment, all he could think of was that everyone present was targeting him!
He was actually not a very impulsive person, but when he looked at Ji Yan, whom he had only met once and was sarcastic to him, and Xia Wei, who did not even look at him from the beginning to the end, the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart gradually overflowed.
âIt has nothing to do with her? Actually, Iâve already covered for Sister Xia Wei very much, but you donât seem to feel guilty about what happened yesterday, nor do you have any intention of apologizing to me. This makes me feel a little uncomfortable!â Lu Man ignored Ji Yanâs rhetorical question and Ma Liangâs attempt to cover up for him. He only frowned and looked at Xia Wei.
Thinking that Lu Man was really âto stubbornly insist on his own ideasâ, Ma Liang sighed helplessly. The frown between his eyebrows was deep like a ravine. The two main actors of the production team did not get along. This was simply a hellish âcalamityâ!
However, Ma Liang also understood that Xia Wei could not be blamed for this matter. It was all Lu Manâs fault. âEnough, Lu Man! Weâre here today to hold a wrap banquet for Teacher Ji, not to hear you say this. You know very well what this matter is like. 1 didnât mention it for the sake of the stability of our entire production team. Donât go too far!â
Lu Man turned to look at Ma Liang. The warning in the producerâs eyes made his heart sink. An inexplicable uneasiness surged in his heart.
âAll of you are only speaking up for Xia Wei. Whatâs wrong with our Brother Man seeking justice for himself? Shouldnât Xia Wei be told off? Whoâs going too far now?â
Two voices came from behind him, denouncing Lu Man for being unfair. However, he was not happy. He looked at Ma Liangâs completely dark expression and intuitively felt that his assistant was a âlousy teammateâ!
Indeed, Ma Liangâs words told him that his sudden intuition would not lie.
âDo you think you hid the milk bottle very well? Oh, no! You didnât hide it at all. You just threw it in the trash can. I donât understand. Why do you think we canât tell that youâre acting? Whatâs the reason for you to frame Xia Wei like this? Did Xia Wei offend you in any way? Tell me, let me hear it!â Ma Liang said in a low voice.
Knowing that he had been completely exposed, Lu Man immediately turned to look at his assistant behind him, his eyes filled with surprise and speechlessness!
ââ¦â The little assistant did not think that the milk bottle was an important item at all.
Ma Liang was so tired that he took a deep breath. There was an extremely strange silence at the dining table, as well as Lu Manâs awkward and guilty look as if he wanted to burrow into the ground!
âI⦠This isnât the case! Director Xu, Brother Ma, listen to my explanation!â
âIâve already given you a chance just now, but you donât know how to restrain yourself at all. You only want to treat us as fools! You donât deserve to be forgiven, and we donât want to hear your explanation,â Ma Liang said coldly.
At this point, the beverage incident was actually very clear. Xu Kai did not know that Ma Liang had such obvious evidence in his hands. His original intention was not to listen to Lu Manâs nagging, but it was not his place to counterattack and expose this dishonest person who was full of lies.
Ma Liang killed Lu Man with a single strike.
Lu Man was caught off guard by Ma Liang and immediately collapsed.. After being scanned by everyone a few times, he fled in a sorry state!
