Chapter 1103 No such things as ghost
No sooner did Cai Wu finish speaking than the vase on the bedside cabinet fell on the ground right next to her and shattered. Though it looked like it fell because of the fluttering curtain that was moving because of the wind Cai Wu and the rest did not think that it was this simple.
After all, the vase shattered right at the moment when Cai Wu said that Ji Yiyi would be back on her feet soon and start shooting again. Was this a sign given to them by the malicious ghost that Ji Yiyi would never get back on her feet was that it?
Even Director Li felt that it was quite ominous and in his heart, he already decided to look at a few decent actresses to play the role of the third female lead in his movie. For some reason, he had a hunch that Ji Yiyi was not coming back to the shooting location anytime soon but he still politely said, " I will wait for Miss Ji to come back then."
Cai Wu was scared after the vase shattered next to her shoes but she still nodded with a stiff smile and then said to Director Li, " Thank you, Director Li. I am really grateful."
" Alright this is what I am supposed to do," said Director Li with a polite smile. He turned to look at Ji Zhuang Guang and then said, " Master Ji, I will be taking a leave now. Your sister is still unconscious and I don't want to disturb her, you can give me a call when she wakes up all right?"
" Alright, Director Li," Ji Zhuang Guang had long noticed the way Director Li was keeping a distance from their family and knew that he wanted to leave as quickly as possible but he did not because they were the members of Ji's family. But Ji Zhuang Guang did not blame Director Li, if he had stood in the shoes of Director Li then he too would not have gotten entangled with a mess such as this one.
Director Li and the rest of the crew along with the assistant director headed out of the ward. Once they were out of the ward, the assistant director immediately said, " I think it's better to reconsider your decision, Director Li. If Ji Yiyi is really haunted then it might cause trouble for the rest of the crew as well. Have you forgotten how Lai Li died? And the way the celestial master died? Haven't you read the news? The priest was turned inside out and half of his skull was beaten by something. This happened to him because he was with Ji Yiyi, if we allow her to keep shooting at our set then who knows what can happen to people at our shooting location? This is a matter of life and death, after all."
The moment the assistant director finished speaking many of the crew members felt a chill climb up their spines because what the assistant director said was indeed correct. The priest died when he was working for Ji Yiyi and so were they, if that malicious ghost targeted them then what would happen to them? They were all people with families and even if they were fine, there was no way the cast would be fine with this matter!
" Thats right, Director Li! You have to rethink your decision! Think about us and the cast a little, so what if she is the mistress of the Ji family? In the end, she is a dangerous woman and a threat to our lives," said one of the crew members as they all stepped inside the elevator.
" I agree with him, what's more, we have quite a lineup as our cast," stated another crew member with a frown. " There is Xue Zhi Ming who is the movie Emperor and then there is Song Yan, though she is not someone who has acted in many movies she is quite famous because of her beautiful face and there is also her identity as Madam Fu."
" Bai Yin and Pan Delan have quite a lot of fan following as well, if something happens to them then there is no way that we will be able to wash our hands from this matter."
Director Li agreed with this as well because of the lineup that he had selected himself he dared not to act rashly. His face turned pale when he heard the words of his crew members and then nodded, " You are right we cannot leave the matter behind like this, but we cannot offend the Ji family. Don't worry if that spirit hates Ji Yiyi?so much then it will not allow her to shoot the movie again, we just need to wait for a month!"
Now he was quite regretful. He should have said half a month instead of a month even if it meant evoking the ire of the Ji family.
Behind him was the third male lead of the movie, who was supposed to be shooting with Ji Yiyi. Earlier he came to the hospital because he wanted to get closer to Ji Yiyi as his manager told him that Ji Yiyi was the young miss of the Ji family and befriending her could bring him new contact.
Sure enough, she got him a new contact and that too with a ghost!
He hurriedly said, " Will I be fine? I am the one who is acting with her after all? What if the ghost thinks that I am in the way?"
" What are you talking about?" Among them was the second male lead as well, who was the friend of the second master of the Ji family, Ji Jinfu. He looked at the crew coolly and then said, "How can there be such a thing as ghosts and spirits in this world? You all are tripping all right. At most there is someone who is scaring the Ji family and nothing else."
The Assistant Director did not say anything while Director Li frowned at the young man. If he was not wrong this man was also shoved into their cast by the Ji family.
