Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 251 Huge Uproar [1 Update]
Chapter 251: 251 Huge Uproar [1 Update]
In her previous life, she was unable to consolidate her Inner Strength and thus could not wield the Divine Strategy Spear Technique, but that did not mean she could not remember all ten parts of the Divine Strategy Spear Technique.
In martial arts, she was born with an extremely keen sensitivity and perception.
She had studied the Martial Arts Secret Manuals of various major sects and, through learning, was even able to see through the flaws of these martial arts moves.
At that time in Shenzhou, there were many who wanted to kill her, and although she had countless bodyguards, her protection was far from airtight.
If not for such an ability to dodge lethal attacks in time, she would have already died in an assassination attempt.
But this life was different. This life, she had a healthy body and could consolidate Inner Strength, and she also had an additional nine hundred and ninety-nine years.
Since the Divine Strategy Spear Technique was considered the strongest offensive technique, on par with the "Heavenly Sword’s Nine Variations," she certainly would not give it up.
Moreover, from her conversation with Huo Yungui, Ye Wanlan could completely confirm that Huo Ximian did not really know the Divine Strategy Spear Technique at all.
The first time she met Huo Ximian, she also did not feel any fluctuations of Inner Strength from him.
This proved that Huo Ximian’s claim of knowing the Divine Strategy Spear Technique was completely false.
Without Inner Strength, one could not even cultivate the first part of the Divine Strategy Spear Technique.
"A replacement is necessary," the director grew more and more angry, "If we don’t replace her, I dare not imagine how much more trouble she’ll cause!"
"This Huo Ximian is so ruthless and malicious," Professor Shen had long been dissatisfied, "If it weren’t for our Wanlan being so capable that day, wouldn’t she have been directly killed by her? That was clearly a premeditated murder! And she still had the nerve to act wronged?"
Depriving someone of food and drink for three days, what’s the difference from taking Ye Wanlan’s life?
The director slowly exhaled and turned to the other three people from the acting group: "What do the three teachers think?"
"From a professional standpoint, I also suggest changing the person," Shen Yeqiu, who had already become a Grand Slam Best Actor five years ago, spoke indifferently, "Her acting skills have been overly praised, but in reality, they are far from satisfactory."
Xu Qingyu nodded in agreement, clearly sharing the same thought.
The director’s gaze fell on the last person, Qi Yunzhao.
Qi Yunzhao was now in a difficult position.
Although he was also a top star, there was a huge difference in popularity among top stars.
In terms of fan base and loyalty, he could not compare with Huo Ximian.
As for backing, he was also far inferior to Huo Ximian.
He had gone through great lengths to secure a guest spot on "Treasures of The Divine Land," hoping that this show would boost his popularity further and stabilize his position as a top star.
"I..." Qi Yunzhao started to speak.
"Your opinion doesn’t matter anymore, we comply with the majority," the director interrupted him, clapping his hands, "Don’t worry about other things. Time is money, let’s continue shooting."
With that, he couldn’t wait to pick up his chopsticks again, and before the others could react, he quickly grabbed another bite of Yan Tingfeng’s dish.
The director finally understood what it meant to "eat until tears flowed."
Seeing him like this, how could the others not know how delicious the dish was? They all scrambled to eat, fighting over chopsticks and spoons.
In less than three minutes, a plate of food was devoured as if by a whirlwind.
The director rubbed his hands together, eyeing the little bit of sauce left, contemplating whether to lick the plate clean.
Just as he was about to act on this impulse, he noticed the others looking at him.
Yan Tingfeng slightly raised his eyebrows, a semi-smiling expression on his face.
"Embarrassing, truly embarrassing," the director said awkwardly, "I had no idea your culinary skills were so good. Have you ever worked as a chef before?"
Yan Tingfeng said lightly, "I have not; this is the first time."
He was not lying.
He was never one to indulge in the pleasures of taste, as long as his hunger was satisfied, that was enough.
The most he prepared to eat was fish roasted over a fire or other meals that could quickly solve hunger.
He was adept with a blade in taking lives.
Using a knife to chop vegetables today, he still felt somewhat out of place.
"What?!" the director exclaimed in a raised voice, "The first time?!"
The chefs: "..."
They might consider changing their profession!
"Director," Ye Wanlan stepped forward, positioning herself in front of Yan Tingfeng, "didn’t you say we would continue with the shooting?"
"Sorry, sorry," the director realized his lapse and laughed awkwardly, "Let’s continue then, we shall carry on!"
But throughout the rest of the shooting, he was somewhat distracted, still savoring the taste of the dish.
With the day’s shooting over and without Huo Ximian’s interference, the progress of the program improved significantly.
Before everyone dispersed, Yan Tingfeng asked to borrow the kitchen.
The director’s eyes lit up, "Can I perhaps—"
"You cannot," Yan Tingfeng said with a faint smile, his tone gentle.
Director: "..."
All he could do was express his profound sadness.
"Sigh, but with Huo Ximian leaving like this, we still need to consider the issue of finding a successor," the director said, sighing as he walked. "What are we going to do about the recording for the Divine Strategy Army segment?"
"Director," a voice called out from behind him.
Ye Wanlan came out of the restroom and said calmly, "Both of these matters need not worry you, whether it’s the shooting of Divine Strategy Spear Technique or the choice of participants for the show, I can handle it."
The director was stunned.
"Xiao Wan," Yan Tingfeng spoke up, "what would you like for dinner? I saw a recipe called ’Brilliant Splendor.’ How about we have that for dinner?"
He had no desire to cook for anyone other than her.
"Anything is fine," Ye Wanlan turned her head, "I’m not picky. Whatever you cook, I’ll eat."
"Okay," Yan Tingfeng said with a soft, warm smile, "then I can try making every dish."
Outside the kitchen, the director took a couple more steps and suddenly stopped, "I didn’t mishear Miss Ye just now, did I?"
The assistant director thought for a moment and asked, "Which one are you referring to? Is it Miss Ye saying not to worry about the shooting of Divine Strategy Spear Technique, or not to worry about finding a replacement for Huo Ximian after she quit?"
Director: "... Both are quite shocking, aren’t they?!"
But having Ye Wanlan say such things did indeed give him quite a bit of comfort.
The most urgent task was to quickly terminate the contract between Huo Ximian and the show’s production team.
**
Elsewhere, in the hospital.
After another examination by the doctor, the report still showed that Huo Ximian had not had any water or food for more than two days, which led to her fainting due to exhaustion.
But what was strange was that Huo Ximian had only been missing for less than a day. What was with those additional two days?
The assistant was baffled and felt as though he’d encountered a ghost.
"I... I was just in complete darkness, with no light and no sound," Huo Ximian trembled at the memory, "I couldn’t see anyone, nor could I hear anyone speaking. I was very hungry, and in the end, I passed out. I don’t know where I had been."
Huo Hong’s brows furrowed tightly.
Could it truly have been a supernatural event that science cannot explain?
"Dad, you must take up my cause!" Huo Ximian was so angry she was shaking all over, tears continuously falling, "I have never been so humiliated in all my life!"
Huo Hong quickly tried to soothe her, "Mianmian, don’t cry, rest assured Mianmian, the production team must give you an explanation, or the Huo Family won’t let them off!"
After saying this, he gave a slight order to the assistant, "Contact the producer and have him come here immediately. Also, how can they continue filming while our Mianmian is hospitalized for these few days? They should come to visit the hospital!"
The assistant hurriedly acknowledged and rushed off.
An hour later, Producer Liu arrived at the hospital.
"You’re here?" Huo Hong glanced at him indifferently, "Go ahead, what does your production team plan to do about this incident?"
Producer Liu showed no sign of fear, "Mr. Huo, I don’t quite understand what you mean."
"Stop playing dumb!" Huo Hong shouted angrily, "Mianmian had this incident happen during the filming of the show; the production team must take responsibility!"
Producer Liu spoke calmly, "That’s why I want to know what Mr. Huo plans to do?"
"Didn’t I already say it?" Huo Ximian’s pale face, "Ye Wanlan must withdraw from the show, can’t you understand that?"
"Teacher Huo, so what you mean and demand is—" Producer Liu hesitated, then spoke lightly, "In our show, only one of you, Miss Ye or you, can stay, is that it?"
"Exactly," Huo Ximian said coldly, "If I’m in, she’s out. If she’s in, I’m out!"
Having put it that bluntly, surely the production team would know what to do without her teaching them, right?
Whether it was her status in the entertainment industry or the Huo Family backing her
"Very well," Producer Liu nodded, "then Teacher Huo, you may leave."
Huo Ximian’s smile froze on her face, and she looked incredulously at the producer, "What did you say?!"
"Since Teacher Huo has heard it, then there’s no need for me to repeat," Producer Liu said, "We regret to terminate our cooperation with Teacher Huo. Since it was your side that breached the contract, as per the contract, you will need to compensate the production team for the breach."
Huo Hong was also unable to contain his anger, "Good! If this is your choice, then our Mianmian will not participate in the show!"
"I was thinking the same," Producer Liu nodded, not saying anything more, and walked straight out of the ward.
Huo Ximian was shaking with rage, her fingers trembling, "Dad, hand me my phone."
[@HuoXimianV: I have exited ’Treasures of The Divine Land’. To such a production team that regards human life as worthless, you are on your own!]
Social media instantly exploded.
