Chapter 276: As Silent As Crickets in the Winter
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Right then, on the ‘Hunting Allure’s film set, the atmosphere is oddly tense.
The screenwriter, Ling Tianya, had just disappeared mysteriously, but no one knew why she had disappeared, nor where she had gone.
The director, actors, and other staff all stood there nervously. Everyone was as silent as crickets during the winter, looking as though doomsday had come.
Two men were kneeling on the floor not too far off. They were Ruan Zeyan’s men that he had assigned to sneak into the production crew to protect Ling Tianya. Even so, they had absolutely no clue as to when Ling Tianya had disappeared.
The two of them knelt there, their tears and cold sweat no longer distinguishable from each other. They had even lost the courage to ask for forgiveness. They knew that Miss Ling is missing. They had screwed up and they were finished...
Ruan Zeyan sat in Ling Tianya’s designated chair, his face so impassive that it looked like he had absolutely no humanity left in himself. His thundering eyes were glaring at the two on the ground, as though he was glaring at something already dead.
Right then, Du Gang brought a team of people over, his face serious. “Boss, we have searched the entire area and there is no sign of Miss Ling.”
The moment Du Gang said that, Ruan Zeyan’s expression darkened even more.
The people on site didn’t even dare to breathe too hard. Ruan Zeyan was already hard enough to approach on a good day. Ruan Zeyan seemed closer to Satan than a human being on that day. One word from him could send them all to the deepest depths of hell.
Zhang Heng looked at the almost completely wrecked set, feeling pain in his heart. Ruan Zeyan’s men had upturned the entire place, much like police on a search for a wanted-fugitive.
“When did Ling Tianya go missing?” Ruan Zeyan asked, his voice utterly deadly.
The men kneeling on the ground were startled, and shook their head, their faces pale with fear. They really hadn’t noticed when it happened. It was as though Ling Tianya was in front of them one moment, and the next moment she had disappeared.
Suddenly, the two of them had their chests kicked harshly. There were the sounds of bones breaking as they tumbled down.
It happened so fast that before they knew what happened, they were knocked out and slumping against a wall
By the time everyone realized what was going on, they were horrified to find out that the person that kicked them was Ruan Zeyan.
The two of them were professionals, yet they were knocked out just by one kick. Did that mean that Ruan Zeyan could kill a normal person with a kick?
The thought of it made everyone more fearful. Ling Tianya had gotten lost while with the production crew, and they were in the production crew too. Ruan Zeyan would definitely not go easy on anyone when looking for Ling Tianya.
Gu Zhiqian stood on the side, looking just as grave. He watched Ruan Zeyan kicked the two of them in his anger with the same darkness in his eyes. There was something more though, and that was guilt.
He had been with the crew the entire day, yet he was of no use when it came to protecting his Yaya.
Yi Tian stood within the crowd, and her expression was complicated. She had never thought that Ling Tianya would be so important to Ruan Zeyan. She had been missing for a few short hours, but he’d already kicked up such a fuss.
Suddenly, Gu Zhiqian thought of something and raised his head to look at Yi Tian. “You told me that the silhouette you saw in the lounge might have been Yaya, right?”
Yi Tian had said that to him, but by the time he reached the lounge, he did not see Ling Tianya at all.
When Gu Zhiqian questioned her in front of everyone, Yi Tian jumped. She could clearly feel that a sharp, chill glare was focused right on her.
