Chapter 585: Was in Danger
Bai Rong was examined by the medical staff and had been determined that there was nothing wrong with her. She had merely been temporarily unconscious. By now, she had already woken up and was sitting on the bus with everyone else.
Zhou Die had wanted to sit with Fang Mo’er, but had been scared away by Shi Mo’s cold expression.
The bus was filled with double seats. In the end, other than the cameraman, the only other seats available were next to Brother Fatty and Bai Rong.
Brother Fatty’s face was dark and gloomy and he looked as if he was about to hit someone at any moment. Zhou Die did not dare to sit with him, so she could only choose to sit next to Bai Rong.
Although Zhou Die was usually shy and timid, once she became angry, she was unexpectedly irritable.
She glanced coldly at Bai Rong and muttered quietly, “Coward, hypocrite.”
At this time, everyone was still fitted with microphones, so even if their voices were very low and soft, people could still hear it.
Bai Rong knew that Zhou Die was scolding her, and her face alternated between turning red and white. It was quite interesting to witness.
Being mocked by Zhou Die in front of the camera and thinking about how she had made a fool of herself in the hospital, she really wanted to show off in front of the camera and help her regain some face.
She took the initiative to show some goodwill to Zhou Die. “Xiao Die, I wasn’t trying to abandon you at that time. My intention had been to lure the ghost away. Who could have guessed that she wouldn’t chase me, but instead became entangled with you.”
She spoke in a serious manner in an intimate tone of voice, as if she was very sincere.
Fang Mo’er also heard what Bai Rong had said, so she smiled and asked, “Miss Bai, so, it turns out that you were trying to lure me away. But then, why do I feel like you pushed Zhou Die into my arms? If you hadn’t run away at that time, you might have won.”
The other people turned to look at Bai Rong.
Seeing that the blame had shifted to her, Bai Rong maintained an awkward smile on her face even though there was anger in her heart.
Recalling that the first person who had run away was Brother Fatty, she pointed at him and said, “Brother Fatty, you’re such a skilled person. How is it that you were so timid? You actually abandoned two girls and ran away. If you hadn’t run away, we wouldn’t have been caught.”
She had still been unconscious when Brother Fatty had tried to hit Shi Mo and did not know what had happened.
Just as she finished speaking, she saw Brother Fatty shoot her a cold glance. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness and viciousness. Bai Rong was shocked. She did not understand why Brother Fatty’s temper had suddenly become so bad.
Bai Rong was sitting behind Brother Fatty, so his expression could not be seen from the cameraman’s point of view.
Other people did not know it, but Zhou Die had seen it all. When she recalled the ruthlessness that Brother Fatty had when he wanted to hit Shi Mo, she wisely chose to observe quietly.
Although Bai Rong was afraid, she was still not convinced. She said unhappily, “What’s with your expression? A big boy like you was even able to run faster than us girls.”
Brother Fatty’s expression was already very unpleasant, but after hearing Bai Rong’s words, it became as dark as the weather outside.
Zhou Die was really afraid that Brother Fatty would hit someone again and somehow drag her into it as well.
Fang Mo’er saw Zhou Die’s dilemma and tried to divert her attention by talking to her. “Zhou Die, I realized that we’re getting along well. Why don’t we add each other as friends when we get back?”
She genuinely liked Zhou Die. Although she was timid and introverted, she had good character. The first impression that she had gotten was that she liked her a lot.
Zhou Die had obviously not expected Fang Mo’er to take the initiative to add her as a friend. After all, no matter how famous she was in the dubbing industry, she could not compare to Fang Mo’er who was very active on the big screen. Furthermore, Fang Mo’er had gotten quite famous recently, yet she did not put on any airs at all. Thus, she quickly nodded her head in agreement.
The whole day had been gloomy. Finally, after the filming of the program was over, it had started to rain on the way back.
The rain poured down without any warning, accompanied by the sound of lightning and thunder. The wind blew, almost breaking the trees.
Fang Mo’er had no doubt that if she got out of the car now, she would definitely be blown away.
The weather had changed so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard. They were already halfway on their route so the driver could not drive back. There was no place to park in the surrounding area.
There was no other way. The driver could only grit his teeth and continue driving. At the same time, he increased his speed to the fastest possible so that he could reach back earlier. Looking at the situation, it looked like the rain would not stop for a while.
If there was water on the road, it would become even more dangerous.
“Sir, it’s better to drive slowly. It’s too dangerous to drive too fast in this kind of weather.” The driver was driving too fast, causing Fang Mo’er to feel an inexplicable panic. Hence, she gave him a reminder.
When Brother Fatty saw this, he sneered disdainfully and said mockingly, “Do you even know how to drive? Of course, it’s better to go back as soon as possible in this kind of weather. Otherwise, when the rain gets heavy, there will be water on the road and we will be trapped here. That would be considered dangerous.”
The heavy rain outside blurred their vision. The headlights were useless, and could not illuminate too far ahead.
The driver did not notice that there was a barricade not far ahead. He only noticed it when he got close, but there was no time to stop so he rammed straight into it. Then, the tires suddenly slid, and the car skidded to the side of the road.
