Chapter 1400: Director Wang Wakes Up

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chi Shuyan casually threw out the word “dead”, scaring the car full of people. Her last sentence rendered everyone speechless.

Seeing everyone’s expressions, Chi Shuyan didn’t explain further and only promised that once they left the village, she would explain the truth.

That was fine with the others. After Wu Haoming, who was driving, found out the truth, his eyes swept over the dark village. He felt his hair stand on end and he couldn’t help but say to Chi Shuyan, “Sister-in-law, there’s something very wrong with this village. It looks sinister no matter how I look at it.”

In short, the atmosphere in Chi Shuyan’s car was quite harmonious. In Ruan Shenglin’s van, nothing happened for the first half an hour. The faint sound of frogs in the night could be heard around them, which made things seem tranquil. Not long after, however, Director Wang suddenly woke up. Ruan Shenglin’s van was simply in a mess. Except for Yan Zhengming, who had to drive, everyone else looked at Director Wang in concern.

“Director Wang, you’re finally awake?”

!!

“Director Wang, you’re awake?”

Director Wang woke up in a daze. Seeing that he was in the van and not in the village, he thought he was dreaming. After a while, he woke up and realized that he wasn’t the only one in the van. There were a few people he knew, such as Ruan Shenglin, Yang Kun, Cao Zhengsong, Song Chu, Du Lan, Ke Mingmei and Yan Zhengming. He was puzzled.

Where were these brats driving to instead of going back to rest?

Director Wang naturally didn’t expect anyone to pose as him and order everyone to leave the village. He just thought that they were bored and wanted to go for a drive.

Director Wang rubbed his neck, and his face became more and more serious and unsightly. He stared intently at them and said a little oppressively and unhappily, “Where are you going? Why aren’t you resting well before filming tomorrow? You still want to go out for a drive? Do you treat me like I’m dead?”

Director Wang was very strict when it came to filming. Seeing this group of people relaxing and playing on their own, the anger in his heart surged, especially when he looked at Cao Zhengsong, Song Chu, Du Lan and Ke Mingmei. His stern gaze scared the juniors witless.

As Director Wang spoke, the van fell silent. Under Director Wang’s sharp gaze, the others were fine, but Yang Kun and Ruan Shenglin felt their hair stand on end. The two didn’t expect Director Wang to wake up so quickly. At the thought of how he had passed out and how they had taken him away from the village, they couldn’t help but swallow guiltily. However, when they thought of Master Chi’s words about a magnitude 9 earthquake, they felt that although Director Wang’s anger was scary, it was still better than dying in the village.

Thinking this, the two relaxed. In any case, they were already on the way. It wasn’t that simple to go back!

Director Wang originally wanted to question the people in the van, but the more he looked at them, the more he felt that something was wrong. He wasn’t a fool. He thought back to how Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun had tried to persuade him, and how he had fainted. He also saw the dozen or so vehicles following behind them in the rearview mirror. It looked like many of the vans and small trucks behind them were carrying the things which they had brought to the village with them.

Were they leaving the village?

Thinking this, Director Wang suddenly sat up and his face changed drastically. His face was livid and his whole body shook as he pointed at Yang Kun and Ruan Shenglin and almost cursed.

Seeing that Director Wang had woken up, Yang Kun couldn’t just watch as he scolded Shenglin. Moreover, judging from Director Wang’s expression, they had probably offended him terribly. Before Director Wang was angered to death, Yang Kun’s face changed slightly and he immediately said anxiously, “Director Wang, there really will be a huge earthquake in Dashan Village tomorrow. Shenglin and I never lie. This is also the main reason why we encouraged the others to leave the village together. If we stay until tomorrow, I’m afraid we won’t be able to leave even if we wanted to. Although filming is important, human lives are more important, right?”

Yang Kun’s original intention was to make Director Wang believe him. Director Wang was quite reasonable, and Yang Kun was confident at first that he could dupe Director Wang into leaving the village.

But it just so happened that Du Lan was in the van.

Du Lan had other thoughts. Firstly, she really didn’t want to leave the village, nor did she want all the scenes she had filmed before to be scrapped and reshot. She only had so much time. She couldn’t wait to finish filming this movie immediately and win an award so that her status in the entertainment industry would become more stable. Secondly, she had selfish motives, and wanted to take her anger out on that Chi woman. Because of Qin Qing’s provocation before, she subconsciously hated that Chi woman very much, and she vented her anger on her.

Du Lan blamed Chi Shuyan for wasting her time and for preventing them from shooting this movie. She was certain that Film Emperor Ruan and Manager Yang had most likely been tricked and brainwashed by that woman. If it wasn’t for that Chi woman, so many things wouldn’t have happened. So, she had been holding in old and new grudges, and now, she found a good opportunity to complain.

So, without waiting for Yang Kun to continue, Du Lan immediately interjected, “Director Wang, there won’t be an earthquake in Dashan Village at all. It was that Chi woman who tricked Film Emperor Ruan and Brother Yang by saying that there will be an earthquake. By the way, that woman even called Brother Yang just now and said that there will be a magnitude 9 earthquake in Dashan Village tomorrow. Pfft, how dare that woman spout such nonsense? Does she really think she’s a god? Even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe such a thing.”

As soon as Du Lan finished speaking, she saw Director Wang’s face turn more livid, unsightly and cold. She gloated in her heart. She didn’t dare offend Film Emperor Ruan and Yang Kun too much, and continued to push all the blame on the Chi woman. She continued, “Director Wang, I never believed it. It’s all that Chi woman’s doing. If we really leave the village, who knows how many losses the film crew will suffer?”

As Du Lan slandered Chi Shuyan, she gave Ke Mingmei on the side a meaningful look to fan the flames. Ke Mingmei could only help do so. The atmosphere in the car plummeted drastically for a moment, and Director Wang immediately made a decision. “Zhengming, turn the car around and go back to the village. Also, tell the others to go back to the village. No one can leave the village, unless they don’t want to take part in my movie!”
