No one noticed that the photo with Lin Xu was taken on Ji Zeqiu’s own phone.

He deliberately used the photo to provoke Ji Tingyang, leaving Lin Xu feeling helpless.

“Send me a copy of the photo too,” Lin Xu took out her phone, her expression hopeful.

She had indeed taken many photos with Xiao Zeqiu when he was three or four years old, but this was the first one of them together since he had grown up.

Lin Xu printed it out to keep.

“I already deleted it,” Ji Zeqiu shrugged.

If it weren’t for the sake of annoying Ji Tingyang, he wouldn’t have kept another woman’s photo in his phone at all.

Lin Xu was also irritated, “Can’t you send it to me before deleting it!”

Such a meaningful photo it was!

Ji Zeqiu’s break wasn’t long, and soon it was his turn to film again.

When the business ended, the manager seemed to forget them altogether, didn’t ask them to leave, and went off to be busy elsewhere.

The two girls and Lin Xu discussed staying a little longer to watch the scene before leaving, so the three of them hid in a corner where they wouldn’t disturb the staff and continued watching Ji Zeqiu act.

The scene was Ji Zeqiu being chased by enemies to the edge of a cliff, engaging in a life-and-death duel.

The crew had set up many safety measures on the edge of the cliff, but even so, every time Ji Zeqiu was suspended in mid-air, Lin Xu still felt a surge of fear.

Five or six enemies with long swords surrounded Ji Zeqiu at one edge of the cliff, and as he stepped back, frail stones tumbled down and quickly disappeared from sight.

The atmosphere of danger was intense, making everyone on site nervous.

The enemies advanced again, and Ji Zeqiu stepped back once more, but this time he stepped too far, his heel hung in the air, and he lost his balance, falling backward toward the cliff.

“Ah!”

“Be careful!”

The crew members all gasped in unison, screaming in alarm.

Fortunately, there was no real danger, as the safety net at the edge of the cliff caught Ji Zeqiu, and the harness forcefully pulled him back, safely landing him on the ground.

Seeing Ji Zeqiu safe, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

“Let’s not get too close here later, it’s too dangerous,” the director instructed the staff to move the set around, feeling a wave of relief.

Ji Zeqiu was also frightened, his heart still pounding fiercely despite being safe.

“Ji Zeqiu!”

He heard an anxious and urgent voice, looked up, and saw Lin Xu with red-rimmed eyes, looking like she was about to cry, frantically running towards him.

“Are you alright? Are you hurt? Let me see…” she said urgently.

When Ji Zeqiu was injured while acting, the staff would also be worried about him, fearing that he might lose his job over any serious issues.

But she seemed different from those people, her clear eyes brimming with tears, seemingly just genuinely concerned about him.

“I’m fine.” This straightforward and pure concern was somewhat overwhelming for Ji Zeqiu.

“Don’t move, let me check first,” Lin Xu pulled up his sleeve to check for any wounds, then suddenly paused, “Wait, we should get out of here first, it’s too dangerous!”

As she spoke, she started to pull him back toward the crowd.

However, unexpectedly, the ground beneath them suddenly loosened, Ji Zeqiu’s body swayed, and he slid down the edge of the cliff.

“Ji Zeqiu!”

Amidst cries of alarm, Ji Zeqiu felt his wrist tighten as if someone had grabbed him, steadying his body for a few seconds.

He looked up and saw Lin Xu sprawled on the ground, her hands gripping him tightly, her fingertips turning white and a dense cold sweat seeping from her forehead.

Because the shooting had ended, the staff around them had dispersed, and no one was paying attention to Ji Zeqiu anymore, so when he was in danger again, they couldn’t react in time.

It was Lin Xu, who was closest to Ji Zeqiu, who grabbed him.

However, Lin Xu’s strength was limited; even carrying a shopping bag usually made her arms sore, so holding on for four to five seconds was already the limit for her.

Her grip loosened, and before the staff could reach them, Ji Zeqiu plummeted down the cliff.

He was falling fast, yet at that moment, he felt as if it were taking forever.

They say one’s life flashes before their eyes just before they die, and in that instant, the faces of Ji Tingyang, his sister, and Wen Li flashed before his eyes.

Seeing the figures of family and a loved one was normal, but why did he also see Lin Xu?

Ji Zeqiu’s confusion was soon cleared up when Lin Xu, still holding his hand, fell down with him.

His pupils constricted, and his eyes filled with disbelief.

This woman must be crazy!

She could have stayed safely at the top just by letting go.

Why…

Behind the cliff was a very steep slope, and almost instantly, Ji Zeqiu and Lin Xu were rolling down it, their bodies continuously slamming against the protruding rocks on the slope, spreading pain throughout his body.

But soon, he felt the pain on his body easing slightly.

Before he could figure out why, his consciousness plunged into darkness, and he passed out.

They had rolled down to the bottom of the slope, and it wasn’t clear how long they had been unconscious, but when Ji Zeqiu opened his eyes, he noticed that the bright sky had already darkened.

He barely sat up, took a deep breath, and his breath carried a rusty blood scent.

The moon hanging in the sky cast a faint glimmer of light, and he looked around by the moonlight.

Surrounded by trees and no signs of human life, it was so quiet that he could only hear the beating of his own heart.

Lin Xu lay not far from him. Ji Zeqiu supported his body and walked over, nudging her shoulder, “Hey, are you okay?”

There was no response.

“Wake up!”

“Lin Xu!”

His voice became increasingly anxious as he called out, even reaching out a finger towards her nose, fearing she had stopped breathing.

Relieved to find she was still breathing, the stone hanging over his heart finally dropped.

Ji Zeqiu called her name a few more times. Her eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened her eyes, looking confused.

Seeing Ji Zeqiu, she paused for a moment, finally remembering why she was here.

Her mouth quivered, and she flung herself onto Ji Zeqiu, bursting into tears, “Wu wu wu… Are you all right? Where are you hurt, is it serious? I thought you were going to die…”

Ji Zeqiu staggered a few steps back when she bumped into him, the taste of blood in his throat intensifying.

He opened his mouth, wanting to curse, but hearing her concern about his injuries the moment she woke up, he swallowed his words and stiffly reassured, “I’m still alive, aren’t I? Don’t cry.”

“As long as you’re alive.” Lin Xu gradually stopped her crying.

“How about you, are you feeling any discomfort?” Ji Zeqiu asked.

His question only made Lin Xu’s mouth quiver more, and she cried even louder, “Ji Zeqiu, it hurts so much!”

“Where does it hurt?!” Ji Zeqiu became anxious.

“My head, hands, legs, and my back… my whole body hurts,” Lin Xu sobbed, crying even harder.
