Chapter 58 - 58: I’m a Jinx
“Ouch!”
“Aiya!”
Among the bustling group of people, three slipped and fell. Ye Yao looked at the three affected people and asked Jiang Jie, “Who are they?”
At that moment, Jiang Jie did not realize what those three people had to do with Ye Yao’s words. She replied, “The director, the props team leader, and Lin Qi’s assistant. Lin Qi is the injured actress.”
Ye Yao raised an eyebrow. These three people, coupled with the prop failure incident, and Lin Qi herself… this was clearly a plot! As Ye Yao studied the three of them, she continued, “Let the mastermind slip and fall again!”
“F*ck! What’s going on! Why do I keep slipping on flat ground today!” The director cursed as he picked himself up from the ground. The director of this movie was very young, only in his early thirties. He was dressed very fashionably.
Ye Yao asked Jiang Jie, “Is there any bad blood between you and this director? He’s deliberately trying to harm you.”
If Jiang Jie didn’t pay attention the first time Ye Yao spoke, then the second time she spoke, and the further fact that someone had already been injured, she couldn’t afford not to care. She looked at Ye Yao in disbelief. “You…
Ye Yao blinked. “Shh, I have a supernatural ability. Whatever I say will come true. If you don’t believe me, I’ll give you a demonstration.”
Ye Yao looked at the production team members hustling and bustling around and said, “All fall down!”
“Ouch!”
“That hurts!”
With loud thuds, people around them started falling down. The scene was spectacular. Jiang Jie was dumbfounded. When things finally started to come together in her head, she grabbed Ye Yao’s shoulder and shouted excitedly, “Hurry, Ye Yao, tell me that Yang Youwei and I will be together forever!”
Ye Yao rolled his eyes. What kind of situation was this? After knowing about her ability, Jiang Jie wasn’t interested in pursuing the sabotage incident. Instead, she asked for blessings for her relationship with Yang Youwei. What was she thinking? Did she like Yang Youwei that much? Moreover, her ability was jinxing, which would only bring on bad things rather than good. Things like blessings… Aiyo, that didn’t seem right. Everything she had said so far appeared to be bad things, she had never said anything good. But perhaps she could make good things happen?
“Hurry up, say it,” Jiang Jie urged.
Ye Yao shook his head. “No way. I’m a jinx. The good things I say don’t come true, but bad things do. What if it backfires.’
Jiang Jie immediately covered Ye Yao’s mouth. “In that case stop talking.” She thought that Ye Yao had some heaven-defying ability, but it turned out she was a jinx. This was too harmful. Ye Yao had better not cause them to break up.
Ye Yao asked Jiang Jie, “Is there any bad blood between you and this director?
He had collaborated with the prop master and Lin Qi to harm you.”
Jiang Jie’s expression darkened. “This director wanted to sleep with me previously, but I didn’t agree. He would occasionally cause me some trouble during filming.” However, with Jiang Jie’s acting skills and ability, there were limited opportunities for the man to find trouble. But, if what had just happened was indeed the director’s plot, then the man was too evil.
Upon returning to the powder room, Jiang Jie removed her makeup and washed her face. Her assistant suddenly rushed in. “Jiang Jie, bad news. The wire incident involving you and Lin Qi has been posted online and maliciously edited. Now the edited footage makes it look as though you had severed Lin Qi’s wire with your sword, causing her to tumble to the ground and getting seriously injured.”
Ye Yao also took out her cell phone and checked Weibo. There was already a video circulating online. The content focused on the production team’s filming today, but it had been maliciously edited. It was edited to the point where Jiang Jie dropped her sword and at the same time cutting the wire attached to Lin Qi. Then, Lin Qi fell from mid air, creating a bloody scene.
Many people reposted the video and commented on it. Everyone began to denounce Jiang Jie, saying that she had hurt Lin Qi. However, Jiang Jie’s fans were not to be trifled with. They said that this video looked fake and the two sides started arguing.
Jiang Jie looked at the video and pinched her chin, deep in thought. Ye Yao then looked through her cell phone and sent a video to Jiang Jie. “Fortunately, I video recorded the scene. It should be helpful to you.” As it was her first time coming to the filming location to watch filming, and furthermore, it was Jiang Jie’s scene, she had immediately taken out her phone to record Jiang Jie, with the intention of sharing it with Yang Youwei. Who’d have expected such a thing to happen?
Jiang Jie smiled and tidied herself up. She waved at Ye Yao. “Let’s go. I’ll take you around to have some fun.”
Ye Yao was stunned. “Aren’t you going to explain?” “What’s there to explain?” Jiang Jie snorted..
