Chapter 260: Why Didn’t You Tell Me? (10)
Translator: Paperplane Editor: Caron_
Qian Ge had seen a million different sides to Ji Yi, but she had never seen this side of her in this very moment.
A tinge of fear for her arrogance and overbearingness unexpectedly rose in her heart as she stared at Ji Yi unwaveringly for a long time. Yet she didn’t reply Ji Yi with a single word. In the end, all she did was stand on the spot for a short while then stomped her way towards the door, slightly embarrassed. But just as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped.
Confused, Ji Yi turned her head to look over and was just about to ask Qian Ge: Now, what do you want? when she saw Qian Ge stare at the wall in front of the door. Her lips moved as she said in astonishment, “He… Jichen?”
The words in Ji Yi’s mouth instantly froze.
He Jichen? He’s at the door? Is Qian Ge joking…
Before the final word “she” flashed across Ji Yi’s mind, she heard faint sounds from outside the door as though someone was getting up. A second later, He Jichen’s tall and slender frame appeared in her field of vision.
It was like Ji Yi instantly turned to stone as her entire body couldn’t move even if she tried. In fact, the blood coursing through her entire body stopped flowing.
After several seconds, Ji Yi’s mind slowly started to turn.
He Jichen’s really here. When did he come back? The door wasn’t closed since I was standing at the door… so, did he hear everything I said?
Then did he also learn that I was the one who put the blade in there?
What He Jichen hated most was when actors and actresses played mind games while filming. Not only would today’s events delay shooting by several days, most importantly, as soon as he discovered the blade, he stood up in front of everyone to help her resolve the situation.
In the end, he realized that she actually was the biggest mastermind behind it all…
A strong unsettled feeling boiled in Ji Yi’s heart as she discreetly took a deep breath. She suppressed the waves within her body before she secretly looked up at the two people standing at the door.
Qian Ge probably never imagined that there would be someone standing at the door, so after she blurted out He Jichen’s name, she was completely stunned.
He Jichen stood drearily in front of her. His injured hand was wrapped with some tissue which had some blood stains in the corner. He was carrying a large bag in his other hand with who knows what inside.
His neutral gaze fell on Ji Yi, and his deep, dark eyes, he looked unfazed; there wasn’t a hint of any emotion.
His dazzling eyes were as cold as usual which made it difficult for Ji Yi to know what he was thinking, let alone guess if he overheard her conversation with Qian Ge.
Compared to Ji Yi’s nervousness, after Qian Ge snapped back to her senses, she stared at He Jichen for a moment as her eyes lit up. Impatiently, she exclaimed, “Director He, did you just overhear our conversation? Did you hear she was the one who put the blade in her costume?”
He Jichen’s gaze locked onto Ji Yi as though he hadn’t heard a single thing Qian Ge said. He didn’t even look at her.
Ji Yi’s heart was rattled and her fingertips trembled under his gaze.
“Director He, I thought it was my manager who hurt Ji Yi, so I felt sorry and I deliberately came to apologize to her. Look, I bought her so many Chinese tonics. But in the end, she told me that she put the blade in there on purpose just to frame me! Director He…”
