Chapter 31
Suddenly, a ringtone sounded.
โMy phone! Scared me to death!โ Lin Xue exclaimed in shock. Everyone had been quietly studying, yet the sudden ringing of the phone gave them a scare.
Lin Xue looked at the incoming call, and her expression suddenly became serious, โYes, itโs me. I calledโฆ what! Aunty Wang is dead!โ
Everyone present was collectively stunned.
Aunty Wang was dead!
โBut you called meโฆ a request from the family?โ Lin Xue was still conversing with the person on the other end of the line, and after a while, she handed her phone to Chen Li, โChen Li, itโs for you.โ
Chen Liโs eyes dimmed, and her body involuntarily trembled as she accepted the phone.
Gu Xiao was seated right next to Chen Li, and she could vaguely hear the shouts and curses coming from the phone.
After a while, Chen Li put down her phone.
โGu Xiao, what should I do? They want me to go to the hospital now, and they say that I am the murdererโฆโ After a short moment of silence, Chen Li cried loudly.
โChen Li, calm down,โ Gu Xiao said.
โIt wasnโt me! I already said it wasnโt me! I was holding the cup and walking very steadily! It was Meng Fei who tripped me! It was Meng Fei who tripped me!โ Chen Li was hysterical.
โThe audience have all seen it. You fell down on your own,โ Meng Fei explained.
And the audience were indeed saying this.
[Thatโs right. She fell on her own, and we all saw it.]
[ Sheโs still trying to shift the blame here, how shameless.]
[Can this kind of person die?!]
Though Chen Li kept crying, the production team still specially sent someone to take her to the hospital, and had Meng Fei Fei go along with her, as well as a camera to continue filming.
โThey are even filming this, how disgusting,โ Lin Xue cursed softly.
Everyone knew very well that Chen Lili couldnโt possibly be lying.
However, there was a director and cameras here, so it was not appropriate for them to discuss the matter. They could only continue their studies.
When the night filming ended, the few of them returned to their own rooms. Because Chu An was a guest star, he directly returned home, and because Chen Li, Meng Fei, and Ji Yao were all gone, Lin Xue directly went over to sleep with Gu Xiao and An Yang.
โWhat do you guys think?โ Lin Xue asked the two of them the moment she entered.
โItโs not Chen Li. Chen Li is very honest. Even if it was arranged by the production team, she would not be joking around with human lives,โ An Yang continued.
โI think so too, but the production team and Meng Fei seem to have a card up their sleeve.โ Lin Xue Xue sighed, โIt is possible that they really did not manage to film it.โ A frightening thought appeared in Gu Xiaoโs head, โThe film crew is filming from multiple cameras, so it is possible that they did not manage to get a shot from one location, and another location managed to get a shot. Who knows, there may be information in the memory card.โ
โWho was the one who called just now?โ Gu Xiao suddenly asked.
โItโs a doctor. He then said that Aunty Wangโs family wants to see Chen Li,โ Lin Xue said.
โGrandma Jin told me that Aunty Wangโs family couldnโt wait to see Aunty Wang die, and now that Aunty Wang is dead, isnโt that just what they wanted? Why are they in such a rush to insult Chen Li?โ A terrifying thought suddenly appeared in Gu Xiaoโs head.
โSayโฆ is it possible that Aunty Wang is really a sacrificial character in the show?โ Gu Xiao looked at the two of them, and it was as if they had suddenly come to a realization. ๐ง๐๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ค๐ฆ๐๐๐ฐ๐ท๐๐ญ.๐๐๐ฎ
โIn other words! If Aunty Wangโs death was planted on Chen Li, they would be able to legitimately promote Meng Fei!โ Lin Xue was the first to react.
โFurthermore, now that Aunty Wang is dead, the family wonโt say anything, nor will they investigate the truth.โ An Yang inhaled sharply. This was too terrifying, wasnโt it!
โIf Aunty Wang was the only eyewitness, then the culprit would only become Chen Li.โ Gu Xiaoโs gaze became more and more profound and meaningful.
She was very angry. Angry at her own incompetence, and even more angry at these people who used their desires to play with the lives of others, and her cold and heartless family.
โThen what should we do now? Watch as Chen Li gets insulted?โ An Yang was slightly anxious.
โBasically, we canโt get the memory card, and we canโt possibly get close to those cameras now either.โ Lin Xue took out her phone to check something.
โLetโs go to sleep.โ Gu Xiao covered herself with the blanket.
โAh?โ The two of them turned to look at Gu Xiao, โBut we canโt sleep either.โ
โThe other party is a person who has struggled in society for several decades, and as for us? We are just a bunch of students, so what can we do?โ Gu Xiaoโs voice was very cold, and sounded slightly unfamiliar to the two of them, โAll we can do is study hard, and strive for greater power and status. Otherwise, we would not even have the chance to seek justice for others.โ
Silence returned to the air. After a moment of silence, the lights also went out.
