Injury

IMPORTANT: I can no longer continue translating this novel as life has got in the way. Therefore, I am dropping it. If there is anyone willing to take it on and continue its translation, they can do so. 

Seeing Chang Shi Gui staring at the scene unblinkingly, the producer thought that he was curious about how the set worked, so he began to explain how the cameras were controlled, how the suspension wires are regulated and how the scene was shot to retain the beauty of it, etc. After talking for a long time, however, he didn't see any reaction. In fact, he didn't remember any time Chang Shi Gui reacted to what he said.

He was deservedly the epitome of a successful man. His emotions and expressions were unfathomable.

Spending time with the crew for so long, the producer's mind had become like the screenwriter's. A host of 'cool president' scenes flashed across in his mind and a melodramatic plot-line began to appear.

"Is there a possibility of an accident in this scene?" Chang Shi Gui stood not far from the director, looking at the actors playing out their roles. Several cameras were pointed at them from different angles, and these cameras were surrounded by the crew. The whole scene looked busy and messy.

"It could more or less happen," the producer said. "Of course, the leader of the crew is very experienced and no serious accidents will happen."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the actor hanging from the cables lose her balance and hit her back against the camera with a loud bang.

The producer jaw dropped. He felt that his face had been trampled on from all directions.

When Ning Xi hit something in front, she only thought she was her brain was shocked for a second and wasn't responding yet. She had already hit herself, on top of that, she fell down on the ground.

She seemed to hear Xiao Yang's screams and sounds of the crew running around. That was not important. The important thing was that her heart seemed to have stopped for a few moments and she hadn't breathed yet.

"Don't move her first, don't move her." The doctor stopped Xiao Yang who wanted to step forward to Ning Xi. He then quickly walked to her checked her pupils to see if she was in shock. "Are you okay?"

Ning Xi sat up with the help of one hand and felt an intense pain in her back. She sucked in her breath at the pain.

Xiao Yang was very scared and her eyes were red. Seeing that nothing serious had happened to her, only then the crew came up to her and helped her up. Teacher Wei Ya quickly came to her and untied the rope at her waist and apologised to her.

"It's okay, I'm fine. It was just an accident." Ning Xi smiled at Teacher Wei Ya and turned around to sit on her chair.

"Little Xi, are you okay?" Qian Cong Hai approached her with worry on his face. "You can't joke around with your body."

Ning Xi repeatedly assured everyone that nothing was wrong, but still, Qian Cong Hai said, "Then you rest for a while. We'll wait before we shoot your scene again."

As soon as he finished the sentence, he heard the producer coming from behind him with a frown on his face.

As a director, he had experienced minor conflicts with the producer of the film. Now that he saw that person coming, he was worried that he would think that Ning Xi would delay the shooting.

But, he had guessed the beginning this time, but not the end. The producer really had come to ask about Ning Xi but not to find trouble for her.

"Ning Xi, this is our major investor, Mr Chang."
