Chapter 594: Self-inflicted Doom, Inevitable Ruin
i Bichen's solemn words in the receiver, his evil lips curling into a smirk. "I really didn't expect that the fourth young master of the Li family would be so low-pitched It's just a pity that Xi Xi i...In the apartment, Luo Ningxi specially locked the door before going back to take a shower and prepare for sleep.
She had just come out of the bathroom when she received a call from Su Qiao.
"Hey! Honey, let me tell you, I was terrified today!"
Luo Ningxi heard Su Qiao's excited voice, and her heart skipped a beat. "What happened"
"I wasn't supposed to be filming today, but the wire rigging malfunctioned and our leading lady actually fell from it! Luckily she didn't fall very far, just broke her leg. I was terrified!"
Listening to Su Qiao's description, Luo Ningxi remembered that Nan Hanchuan had left in a hurry today, apparently because of this.
"I told you acting is a high-risk profession. You have to be extra careful when you're on a wire rig in the future!" Luo Ningxi said, holding the phone and giving instructions.
"Sigh, this drama's budget was already huge, and now with this accident, it's definitely going to cost a lot of money. I saw Nan Hanchuan on set today, his face had turned pale!"
"Susie talked non-stop, "I heard that this drama is going to change its female lead again, I wonder who it will be..."
Lo Ningxi chuckled teasingly, "Who knows, maybe it's you Aren't you Nan Hanchuan's secret lover Being the leading lady is probably just a matter of him saying a few words."
"Goodbye, after what happened last time with the ad shoot, I dare not speak up anymore, for fear of causing myself trouble."
Su Qiao pursed her lips and changed the subject, "By the way, I heard that there have been a lot of things happening at Luo's Group recently. Would you need my help"
Luo Ningxi smiled playfully, "It's nothing much really. I'm preparing to participate in the jewelry show hosted by Shengshi Group and Nan Hanchuan. When you become a first-line actress, I'll find you as my brand ambassador myself."
Su Qiao was amused by her impractical ideas.
"Okay, I'll try my best and strive to replace that unlucky lead actress, aiming to become a first-line star in one go!"
The two of them bickered for a few more moments before hanging up. Luo Ningxi lay on the bed, but tossed and turned unable to sleep.
Li Bochen was right, he had let Luo Yi take such a big fall. He definitely wouldn't let him off so easily.
I need to figure out a way to make him afraid to mess with me again.
……
On the other side, Lu Yi returned to the rented villa, a mess. The spacious living room was eerily quiet. Jiang Jingya, for the first time ever, didn't come out to greet him as usual.
The drastic difference caused Luo Yi's anger to flare instantly!
"Where is everyone What are they doing! Can't you hear I'm back!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, footsteps echoed from upstairs!
Jiang Jingya wore a delicate robe and had a face mask on, walking down the stairs. "Have you seen Luo Ningxi How much does he want to come back"
Lu Yi glared at her as she still had the time to fuss over her old face, his anger boiling over even more!
"I want my money back! That bitch has the Fourth Young Master protecting her, I can't touch her! When I went to find her for the money, she threatened me instead!"
Luo Zhiqin also ran out of the room and just heard Luo Yi's words, "What, Li Bochen is not broken up with Luo Ningxi Could this money not be returned..."
"How am I supposed to get back! I shouldn't have partnered with your uncle on that Xicheng project in the first place! What a terrible mess I've gotten myself into!"
Hearing Luo Yi's complaints, Jiang Jingya exploded directly. She had given Luo Yi some face before because he still had value, but now that the money wasn't coming back, he dared to be rude to her
"Luo Yi, you didn't say it that way before! I don't care, but it was because you believed Xue Shenming that I invested the money. You must find a way to get the money back!"
Luo Zhiqin had never seen Luo Yi and Jiang Jingya argue like this before, she hurriedly stepped in to mediate, "Dad, Mom is still pregnant, don't say that..."
Her words had not yet left her lips when a sudden commotion erupted at the doorway!
The villa's front door was slammed!
It's more like smashing than tapping!
"Bang bang!!"
A tremendous noise made the three people in the villa tremble at the same time. In the end, it was Luo Yi who went to the door and asked in a low voice, "Who is it!"
"I'm looking for Lu Yi!"
A strange, low voice came from outside the door. It sounded hurried and agitated. Luo Yi's expression changed drastically, a sense of foreboding washing over him.
He's not here right now, you should go back!
He spoke, hurriedly winking at Jiang Jingya, signaling her to call the police immediately.
But the man's next words left both of them speechless!
"Cut the crap, I'm here because of what happened in West City. Don't want any trouble, so just open the door quickly, or don't blame me for getting rough."
West of the city
Luo Yi's face turned pale, but the sound of banging on the door outside grew increasingly intense!
The deafening roar made the whole villa tremble!
Luo Zhiqin was terrified, staring at the door in shock. She didn't know what to do. She wanted to seek comfort from Jiang Jingya, but she found that Jiang Jingya's face was also pale.
"Open the door! Luo Yi, I know you're in there, open the door, or else when I break it down, things won't be so friendly!!"
Faced with the clamor outside the door, Luo Yi weighed the pros and cons. There was no other way, he could only open the door!
The moment the door opened, a tall man in black kicked it open and charged in!
More than ten black-clothed bodyguards, also with malicious intent, followed closely behind, each carrying a hammer. They rushed in quickly, surrounding Luo Yi and his family!gxi tugging at Li Bochen's collar with intimate movements!Even Li Bochen's mouth still bore the mark of this unsightly injury!Mr. Li was so angry that he almost fainted.
