Chapter 495 Not even a chance to find the murderer

All morning, the atmosphere on the set was filled with weirdness.

No matter how strong Yan Xi's endurance was, he still couldn't bear so many pairs of eyes staring at him.

Fortunately, eyes can't kill, otherwise his body would have been poked with countless holes by these people.

Finally, Yan Xi's performance aroused the director's dissatisfaction.

"Kah! Yan Xi! What are you thinking! Your expression is wrong!"

Yan Xi pinched his eyebrows helplessly and said, "Director, give me a few minutes to rest. I need to adjust my state."

Hou Boyuan glanced at the time on his watch. It was already noon, and the crew's lunch boxes were about to arrive.

Yan Xi's filming progressed very quickly, and he had completed several scenes in just a few hours.

It's really time for people to take a break.

If you push too hard, it will easily backfire.

"Okay, let's eat first and then take pictures after eating."

Yan Xi returned to the rest area, and Zhong Lun quickly put his down jacket on him, then poured him a glass of hot water and frowned solemnly.

"These people look at you as if they want to eat you. It seems that Mr. Meng's goal has been achieved."

He was sitting next to them just now, and he heard clearly the conversation between him and Mr. Meng.

Just a few words easily aroused the hostility of other actors towards him. It seemed that Mr. Meng was planning to destroy Yan Xi.

Yan Xi took a sip of warm tea, his cold body gradually warmed up under the down jacket, and he spoke quietly.

"Brother Lung, this is just the beginning."

His appearance has affected their interests and future, and these people will not just let him film in peace on the set.

"I just had a phone call with Della. She relocated your previous assistant to you, with multiple people and helpers."

It was obvious that Zhong Lun's expression was solemn, and Yan Xi chuckled lightly.

"Brother Lun, you don't have to be so nervous. You have been with Zhang Yiqiu for so many years, and you should be used to such scenes.

Mengmeng has adapted to her new position, so there is no need to transfer her back again."

Ah Shui has always been in the dark. If something happens, he will appear at any time.

Assistant, he doesn't actually need one.

Zhong Lun also realized that he was too nervous, so he smiled and scratched his head.

"To be honest, I have never seen such obvious hostility before."

There are a lot of fights for resources in the entertainment industry, but at least everyone will maintain a superficial peace.

To avoid being caught by the media again and reported indiscriminately.

But this was the first time he had seen a crew with such a weird atmosphere today.

Yan Xi gathered his down jacket and walked towards the RV.

"Just get used to it."

He had seen many such scenes, and he had been there like this when he first entered the industry, so he did not take these people seriously.

The most important thing now is how to severely dampen Meng Ruxin's energy.

…

Not long after, the crew’s lunch boxes arrived.

The crew handed the lunch boxes to the artist's assistant one by one, but Yan Xi was missed.

Zhong Lun and Yan Xi waited in the RV for a long time, but neither saw the lunch box.

Zhong Lun couldn't sit still anymore, so he stood up and got out of the car to go to the venue attendant to inquire about the situation.

The steward who was engrossed in eating heard this and slowly raised his head.

"Didn't Yan Xi not eat the lunch boxes provided by the crew? I didn't include you at all when I ordered the lunch boxes."

Zhong Lun noticed something was wrong and frowned.

"Who told you that Yan Xi doesn't eat lunch?"

"When I was ordering a lunch box, someone came over and told me that Yan Xi never eats the lunch boxes from the crew. He thinks the lunch boxes are unpalatable, so I didn't order them. Isn't that person Yan Xi's assistant?"

Zhong Lun's face darkened a bit, and he asked in a deep voice, "Do you still remember what he looks like?"

"I don't remember that. She ran away in a hurry after saying that. She was just a woman."

Zhong Lun raised his head and quickly scanned his surroundings.

Because it was a temporary scene, there was no monitoring at all.

All I know is that she is a woman, there is no way to find out.

But if we leave it alone, we just don’t have lunch today, and we don’t know what will happen tomorrow.

"Brother Lun, what's going on?" Yan Xi waited in the RV for a long time before Zhong Lun came back, so he got out of the car and came to see the situation.

Zhong Lun glanced at him and said, "Someone used the name of your assistant to tell the production staff that you don't eat the set lunches, so..."

Yan Xi raised the corners of his lips coldly, "So I don't have anything to eat for lunch?"

"It's not that exaggerated. We can just ask the venue manager to order a few more lunch boxes for us."

When the court official heard this, he quickly refused.

"Then...that...Teacher Yan, why don't you order takeout by yourself? I only order a box lunch for a few of you and they won't deliver it to you!"

Hearing this, Yan Xi and Zhong Lun both looked towards the scene. Yan Xi raised the corners of his lips in a half-smile, with a look of scrutiny hidden in his eyes.

"Are you not going to give it away, or do you not want to order it?"

The steward's eyes flickered, and he inadvertently met Yan Xi's eyes, which were obviously smiling, but inexplicably made him shiver all over.

"The crew's lunch boxes have been reserved in advance. I really have no choice. Teacher Yan, please don't make things difficult for me."

"If you don't take the time to eat, what are you doing around here?"

Hou Boyuan had noticed this place a long time ago. Seeing that Yan Xi looked strange, he decided to come over and take a look.

"What happened?"

Zhong Lun paused and told the whole story.

This matter was obviously aimed at Yan Xi, so there was no need for him to hide it.

Regardless of whether what the manager said is true or false, the director might be able to help them find the woman.

When Hou Boyuan heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly and he looked at the affairs unhappily.

"Yan Xi has a whole day of filming today. How can he film without eating? Why don't you quickly order a lunch box for Yan Xi!"

The steward opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Yan Xi's cold voice.

"No!"

Yan Xi took a deep look at the steward, then slowly moved his eyes away from the steward and landed on Hou Boyuan.

"Since someone wants me to improve the food, of course I can't live up to this person's kindness.

However, Director Hou, my next scene may not start filming until later."

Hou Boyuan looked at Yan Xi, the displeasure on his face softened a bit.

"You can eat in peace, I will delay filming your scene for an hour."

"Thank you, Director Hou."

Yan Xi nodded to Hou Boyuan and left.

Just after taking a few steps, Yan Xi suddenly stopped. Yan Xi turned around and looked at the attendant, his dark eyes concealing the eternal ice that could not be melted away.

"Since you didn't order my lunch box today, you don't need to order my lunch box from now on.

I just didn’t have a lunch box on the first day I joined the group. If someone poisoned my lunch box after that, I might not even be able to find the murderer!"

At the end of the sentence, Yan Xi deliberately raised his voice and his tone suddenly became harsh.

The steward's body trembled violently, panic arose in his heart, and his hands subconsciously grabbed the hem of his clothes.

And everyone in the rest area also had their own thoughts.
