Chapter 945: Falling To Death

At night, Lin Dongxue leaned on her bed and used the remote control to switch between channels. Various TV stations were broadcasting TV series. She wondered, "How much manpower and material resources are needed to shoot so many TV series every year?"

Tao Yueyue sat on the sofa playing with her mobile phone and said, "It's more interesting to read a book."

"Haha." Lin Dongxue heard a beep. "The water is ready. Take a bath with your mother."

"You go first. I'm playing a game with my classmates. It'll be over in a while."

"Then you should come in later. I will help you rub your back."

"Okay!"

When Lin Dongxue entered the bathroom, Tao Yueyue immediately left the room quietly. She had a small plan to teach the arrogant producer a lesson.

The producer and Little Ai liked Xia Xiaolou at the same time. Little Ai probably didn’t know about this. If he saw them and found out, that would be wonderful.

Of course, in order to complete this prank, she must first investigate whether the producer was currently with Xia Xiaolou.

Tao Yueyue snuck to the front of the producer’s room and put her ears on it to eavesdrop. The room was quiet, and there was no light coming out of the door as if there was no one inside.

It seemed that there was no hope. She returned to her room disappointed. Suddenly, a strange man appeared in the corridor. He looked unkempt wearing a shabby denim suit and holding a knife in his hand. Tao Yueyue was startled and turned to run.

"Stop!" the other party shouted. It was Cai Zhengkai's voice.

Tao Yueyue stared at him blankly. Cai Zhengkai walked up to her and asked, "Did I scare you?" His eyes were gloomy in the moment.

Tao Yueyue nodded.

Cai Zhengkai smiled. "I just came out to figure out the role by myself. Do you think I’m like him now?"

"It's still not very similar. How should I say this? You’re too fierce."

"Is he not fierce?"

"He’s not fierce, but rather he had a feeling of a beast, as if he would rush over to bite someone at any moment."

"A feeling of a beast..." Cai Zhengkai fell into deep thought.

"Actually, I don't think you need to imitate him deliberately. The script has long been changed beyond recognition anyway. Just act as you feel."

"No, no, I’m playing him. Is there a better model than Zhou Xiao himself? I will try to figure it out..." Cai Zhengkai whispered and turned to leave.

"Uncle Cai." Tao Yueyue stopped him. "I think you’re actually a very good actor."

Cai Zhengkai snorted, "Call me Brother instead! By the way, if you’re messing around outside, don't go to the meeting room."

"Why?"

"Don’t go if you’re told not to go. Just hurry up and go back to your room!"

Tao Yueyue was even more curious after he said that. After Cai Zhengkai left, she quietly went to the place where the start-up ceremony had been held in the afternoon. At this moment, the lights were not turned on in the conference room, but panting noises could be heard. At the door, she put her ear on the door to eavesdrop, and she was pleasantly surprised to find that it was the producer and Xia Xiaolou who were engaged in illicit actions inside.

The plan continues!

She ran to the stairway and dialed the number for Little Ai’s phone in his room with her mobile phone. She had guessed his number based on her own room number. The mobile phone beeped for a while when Little Ai answered and asked angrily, "Who is it?!"

Tao Yueyue deliberately said in a low voice, "I saw Xia Xiaolou in the meeting room with another man..."

"Nonsense, Xia Xiaolou is my girlfriend. Believe it or not, I’ll tear your mouth apart!" Little Ai said angrily. Being so unkind with strangers, his character was evident.

"Whether you believe it or not, it’s up to you." Tao Yueyue finished speaking, hung up the phone, and quickly slipped back into her room.

If she didn’t, she feared that Lin Dongxue would discover her little scheme. If not for that, she really would have liked to stay and enjoy the scene of catching the adulterers.

In the room, Lin Dongxue still hadn’t noticed Tao Yueyue had left for a while and was still shouting, "Yueyue, come in and take a bath! Where are you?"

"I'm here." Tao Yueyue agreed, taking off her clothes and getting into the bathroom.

After taking a bath, Tao Yueyue watched TV and ate the snacks she bought at the television grounds. She was very proud. The upstairs must be very lively right now with lots of arguing. Through this day's contact, she felt that Little Ai wasn’t a good person either.

Maybe he hid the needle in the prop earlier that afternoon.

A bad romance drama was being broadcast on TV. Lin Dongxue watched it for five minutes and then changed the channel saying she couldn't stand it. She switched channels but eventually went back to the drama. In the end, the two of them watched it with delight.

Unbeknownst to them, it was already 10:00PM. Lin Dongxue asked, "Are you sleepy?"

Tao Yueyue shook her head.

"Haha, you’re just like your Uncle Chen. You’re both night owls."

"If you’re sleepy, you can go to bed first."

"I'll go to sleep later... What’s that sound?!"

Lin Dongxue looked around and turned off the TV volume. Somewhere, there was a plopping sound, like something hitting the glass. Tao Yueyue found that the sound came from outside the window, but when she turned her head to look, there was nothing outside.

Lin Dongxue walked to the window and suddenly there was a scream outside. "Ah! Someone jumped off the building!"

Tao Yueyue hurried over and opened the window to look down. There was a person lying on the ground where it had just rained with blood stains spread around the body.

"I'll go down and take a look." Lin Dongxue hurriedly tied up her hair, grabbed her clothes, and brushed her body after putting it on, before feeling something was missing. "Forget it. I won't wear a bra."

"I never wear it. It's better to have a flat chest!" Tao Yueyue had already put on her clothes.

The people living on this floor were alarmed and ran out in a panic. Out of professional habit, Lin Dongxue glanced and saw that there was the screenwriter, director, and other crew members in the corridor, but she didn't see Cai Zhengkai, Little Ai, or the producer.

The crowd squeezed into the elevator together, and the stage manager said in a panic, "I was cutting my toenails in the room when I saw a person swish down in front of my window. Then, I opened the window and saw a person lying down there."

"A person sprawled down there." The screenwriter corrected. "I saw the clothes. Doesn’t it seem to be a bit like..."

"Like who?!"

"I dare not say. Go see for yourself."

When they finally got to the first floor, Lin Dongxue almost ran out. There was a man lying on the ground. Since the ground was still wet, the blood flowing out had been washed away. The person was clearly Little Ai.

She squatted down, confirmed that it was Little Ai, tested his pulse with her hand, and found that he was dead.

Everyone was about to move forward and check when Lin Dongxue said, "Don't come here. It’s very troublesome to leave footprints around."

"Is it Little Ai?" the director asked.

"Yes, it is."

"Why would he jump off the building?!" The director was shocked, his face pale in fright.

Seeing the dead person, a crewmember covered his mouth and ran to the side to vomit. The screenwriter panicked and asked, "Should I call the police?"

"I'll contact the nearest police station to deal with it." Lin Dongxue took out her mobile phone, stood up, and walked to the side to make a call.

While explaining the situation to the police station, the producer rushed out from nowhere, threw himself on Little Ai's body, and shook him vigorously as he shouted, "Little Ai, Little Ai! Answer me!"

"Hey, don't move the corpse." Lin Dongxue said.

The producer ignored her and turned to look at the director and the others. "Little Ai wouldn't commit suicide! Who did it?! Who did it?!"
