Chapter 702: Master Hou Madam Went To the Sky Bridge Again To Set Up a Stall
Chapter 702: A Life-and-Death Surgery Involving Ruan Ruan and the Baby
Dr. Chen bent down as he heard his name and looked into the car.
Seeing the alarming blood on Qin Ruan's belly, he gasped and quickly signaled the people around him to lift Qin Ruan onto a stretcher in the ambulance.
Dr. Chen didn't have time to talk to the Hou family members. He led the way, pushing the stretcher towards the prepared operating room.
Qin Ruan's condition was extremely critical!
He needed to stay focused and free from distractions, treating this esteemed Mrs. Hou as an ordinary patient. Any mishap during the surgery would be something he couldn't bear.
Dr. Chen mentally prepared himself throughout the journey.
It wasn't until the stretcher entered the operating room that he fully concentrated on this life-and-death surgery.
Hou Qiang, Lin Hao, Hou Zhi, and others waited outside the operating room.
They were waiting.
Waiting for their master to arrive, and waiting for the safe return of their mistress.
Today, if something happened to the mistress, each one of them would likely face punishment.
Compared to the safety mistress and the children their punishment were insignificant.
They hoped the Qin Ruan would come out safely, along with the babies.
...
Xicheng
Lan An found Shen Ran in a secluded corner.
He carried the unconscious young man, who had some of his vitality drained, preparing to return when his expression suddenly changed drastically.
Almost in an instant, Lan An appeared in the alley where Qin Ruan and Ling Feng were.
Ling Feng was fiercely battling with Huang Jushu, exchanging blows evenly. The air was filled with a strong scent of blood.
Lan An casually dropped Shen Ran to the side and joined the fight between Ling Feng and Huang Jushu.
How could he not see that Huang Jushu had already lost his human form and turned into an evil ghost among demons?
During the struggle, Lan An asked Ling Feng, "Where's Qin Ruan?"
"She was taken away!"
With his help, Ling Feng took a moment to catch her breath. She wasn't a match for Huang Jushu; his sinister aura was too strong, and she could barely evade his attacks.
Lan An, with his millennia-old demonic power, quickly overwhelmed Huang Jushu.
He grabbed Huang Jushu's soul by the collar and dragged him in front of Ling Feng. "What happened to her?"
The "her" in question could only be Qin Ruan.
Ling Feng looked thoughtful as she organized her thoughts and said, "She won't die, but Huang Jushu wanted to harm the two babies in her belly. The children are in danger."
Lan An's handsome face clouded with dark emotions, and stormy currents surged in his emerald green eyes.
This was truly bad news.
Ling Feng blinked her clear eyes and said, "I want to go see her."
"Let's go."
Lan An put away the evil ghosts in his hand and held Ling Feng's hand as they left.
No one turned back to look at Shen Ran, who was still lying in the dirty alley.
After exiting the alley, Lan An saw Su Wang and Li Zilan, guarded by the Hou family's secret guards.
He pointed in the direction behind him. "The person you're looking for is in there."
Su Wang and Li Zilan rushed inside without much excitement on their faces, mostly filled with worry.
For Shen Ran, as well as for Qin Ruan.
...
In the capital city, at a famous film and television studio.
Xiao Yunchen had a night scene to shoot tonight.
He wore a luxurious robe, draped in a black cloak, and had a translucent jade pendant hanging from his waist.
The director called him over and said quietly, "Teacher Xiao, for the next scene, you'll be acting with Jin Ling. Her performance hasn't been quite right these past two days."
Xiao Yunchen felt a bit uneasy. His eyes lowered slightly, and he replied, "I'll do my best."
The director knew that he had agreed, smiled, and said, "Let's try to wrap up early; it's getting quite cold."
"Okay."
"Go ahead, let's shoot the next scene."
Xiao Yunchen stood up and left, his extraordinary appearance making even his back view attractive.
The supporting actress for this play, Jin Ling, came out of her dressing room.
She wore a red dress, with crimson lips and clear eyebrows. When her face was expressionless, a cold and proud aura emanated from her.
Seeing this version of Jin Ling, Xiao Yunchen's gaze flickered.
He always felt that the Jin Ling before him had a trace of Qin Ruan's temperament.
"Master, please allow me to greet you."
Jin Ling quickly got into character, her face devoid of expression, and a flattering smile appeared on her lips, giving her a dusty appearance.
Xiao Yunchen turned the jade thumb ring on his hand and cast a disdainful look at Jin Ling.
His gaze was contemptuous and flirtatious, as if he were assessing the value of an object before him.
He walked towards Jin Ling, raised her chin with his hand, and sneered, "With such looks, you think you're worth a thousand taels of gold?"
Suddenly, the sound of a sword unsheathing echoed.
"Villain, prepare to die!"
Xiao Yunchen pressed Jin Ling's shoulder, shielding her in front of him.
A sword pierced through Jin Ling's body and aimed straight at Xiao Yunchen from behind.
In this scene, they had practiced it many times in advance. Xiao Yunchen was supposed to release Jin Ling, turn, and escape through the window.
However, when he stepped back, he accidentally stepped on something on the ground, causing him to fall backward.
"Yun Chen!"
"Teacher Xiao!!!"
"Xiao, the Movie Emperor!!!"
The crew was thrown into chaos. Everyone rushed to carry Xiao Yunchen into the dressing room and called the on-set medical staff to check on him.
The medical staff performed a brief examination on Xiao Yunchen and concluded that he had fainted.
If they weren't sure, they could have him undergo further tests when he woke up.
Upon hearing that Xiao Yunchen was fine, the director and most of the crew members breathed a sigh of relief.
With Xiao Yunchen's current status, if anything happened on set, all their hard work would be in vain.
Xiao Yunchen's agent, Xu Enhao, rushed to the scene upon hearing the news of his accident.
Seeing the room crowded with people, he impatiently shouted, "Stop crowding around, disperse."
With so many people in the room, they might suffocate his cash cow.
After everyone left, Xu Enhao and the director exchanged glances.
They both left the dressing room and leaned against the corridor, exhaling a cloud of smoke.
The director broke the silence first, "Manager Xu, regarding today's incident, should we keep it quiet or address it while it's still fresh?"
This was his first time working with Xiao Yunchen, and his script had been chosen by him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had the chance to collaborate with the Movie Emperor.
The incident could be significant or minor for the production, so he wanted to
gauge the situation.
"Do you want my opinion?" Xu Enhao smiled, "Yun Chen hates publicity the most. You should know that he reads online comments. I think it's best to quietly finish shooting. Other than that, it's a minor issue."
The director was worried that this incident might be exposed and magnified later, affecting the film's release.
Xu Enhao pondered for a moment and said, "Once Yun Chen wakes up, you can talk to him in person. After all, the truth can't be concealed forever."
The director's brows furrowed deeper, and he took a deep drag from his cigarette. He stubbed it out on the ground with his shoe.
"Fine, when Teacher Xiao wakes up, you let me know."
"Rest assured, Yun Chen will be fine. As long as he has a quiet space to shoot, everything else is a minor problem."
This assurance somewhat relieved the director, and his complexion improved.
Inside the dressing room,
Xiao Yunchen's eyelashes trembled, and blurry images flashed through his mind, one after another.
Those scenes brought him feelings of oppression, pain, anger, despair, and more.
The images were too fuzzy, and the only thing Xiao Yunchen could see clearly was a pair of familiar, shining black eyes.
Within those eyes, a mix of sadness and nostalgia swirled.
"Ah... Ah..." Xiao Yunchen murmured softly.
His handsome features, yet to be stripped of makeup, displayed torment, resentment, and unwillingness.
He clenched his fists tightly at his sides, and his lips quivered slightly.
