Mu Qing left the Mu family house dejected. When he thought about Jiang Jin’s unfriendly gaze earlier, he could not help but feel a chill in his heart. He felt increasingly certain that he had made a wrong move using Ye Xin.

At this moment, his phone rang. It was his secretary, Du Tong.

“Sir, one of our men is missing,” Du Tong said, slightly nervous.

Mu Qing frowned. “What happened?”

Mu Qing raised his hand to stop the driver as he listened to Du Tong.

“His name is Zhang Jie. He’s responsible for the incident at the hospital. Some time ago, he said he saw a person on the filming set who looks like Song Ning.”

“What?” Mu Qing could not help but raise his voice.

Du Tong hastily said, “That’s what he said. I asked him to confirm his suspicion. He was planning to return to his hometown so he decided to go to the filming set that day to have a look first, but he didn’t get back to me at all. Initially, I thought he was just spending time in his hometown. However, I called him to look for him today, but his cell phone was turned off. After asking around, I found out that he didn’t return to his hometown at all. Sir, I’m afraid there’s something fishy about this matter.”

“Nonsense! Isn’t that obvious?!” Mu Qing lost his composure upon hearing Du Tong’s words. He said frostily, “Immediately investigate Zhang Jie’s whereabouts. Meet me at the filming set now!”

After disconnecting the call, he ordered the driver to bring him to the filming set. He had to be quick. He really wondered what was going on recently; one bad thing had happened one after another.

He could not help but let out a long sigh. This felt like the time when he had to leave the Mu family; nothing went well for him. It was as though there was a pair of invisible hands that prevented him from going against the Mu family.

However, he was no longer the same as he was back then. No matter what, nothing could stop him now.

His switcheroo plan had to succeed. No matter how bad Ye Xin was, she had to play this role flawlessly for him.

He could not help but break out in cold sweat when he recalled Du Tong’s words. He could slowly make up for Ye Xin’s mistake, but Song Ning must not be alive. He could not turn back now!

The driver did not dare to speak when he saw the unsightly expression on Mu Qing’s face. He stepped on the pedal and drove to the filming set in the suburbs.

…

At this moment, the assistant director bowed deeply to Song Ning. “You’re my savior.”

Song Ning quickly helped him up. “There’s no need for this. I’m only doing my duty; it’s not worth mentioning. I hope you’ll pay more attention to your health in the future. You can’t always neglect your health.”

The assistant director said, “I will, I will. This time, I almost lost my life. If I still don’t listen to you and continue neglecting my health, then it’ll be no different from courting death.”

Song Ning said, “Before the filming ends, I’ll perform acupuncture on you once every fortnight. In the future, as long as you get enough rest, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

The assistant director joined his palms together and bowed again. “Thank you! Thank you so much!”

After the assistant director left with a heart filled with gratitude, Peng walked over from behind and said, “Sister, you’re amazing! Now, they all treat you like some godly doctor.”

Song Ning held Peng’s arm and asked, “Where’s Zhuang Ning?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Peng tilted her head and pointed at a room. “She’s in the room memorizing the script. She’s waiting to go over her lines with you.” Then, she sighed before she continued to say, “You’re even busier than the director now. No, you’re even more important than the director now.”

Song Ning laughed. “These are all trivial matters. The most important thing now is for Zhuang Ning to win an award with this drama.”

Peng nodded. “I feel confident!”

The drama was Pan Hao’s work.. Although they had only filmed less than a third of it, the crew was very hopeful. They felt that the drama would definitely become another ‘Yi Yao’, and Zhuang Ning would become… the second Ning Xia!
