A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

Chapter 1415: Hanging Wire

At that time, Wei Lingnan had told her that he wasn’t the one who hurt her.

Unfortunately, she didn’t believe it then.

She held her breath and listened to them. Gu Jinxiu laughed miserably. “Nan, I love you as much as you love her—no, I love you even more! I’m even willing to kill for you! I want you to be mine regardlessly! Do you understand this kind of feeling?”

“I don’t understand.” Wei Lingnan’s voice was cold.

“Liar! You must understand!” Gu Jinxiu’s tears fell down the corner of her eyes, and she rushed forward to hug Wei Lingnan tightly, “Give me another chance, okay? Be with me! Nan! She already stopped loving you, why can’t you just give up?!”

Pa! A crisp sound echoed in the air as Wei Lingnan slapped her.

Gu Jinxiu staggered from the impact of the slap and fell to the ground, stunned. “You hit me…” She covered her face and murmured.

“I don’t have the habit of not hitting women.” Wei Lingnan’s voice became colder and he looked at Gu Jinxiu coldly. “Don’t comment casually between me and her, or even if she doesn’t kill you, I won’t let you live either.”

Gu Jinxiu suddenly laughed and looked at him frantically while laughing. “Haha, haha… hahahahaha…! Wei Lingnan, are you afraid? You are afraid! You are afraid that bitch really doesn’t want you! That’s why you’re nervous! That’s why you hit me! Hahahahahaha… Wei Lingnan, you’re also a poor worm! You are the same as me, we’re both poor worms!…”

Her voice echoed quietly in the valley.

Poor worm… Poor worm…

The sound was mixed in the wind, and it couldn’t wander off elsewhere.

Xia Yingluo didn’t listen to what they said after that. Suddenly, she felt uncomfortable, so she left the big stone and walked back step by step. She walked a long distance but didn’t return to the crew. She stood on the steep hillside, looking down at the lush green forest not far away. Poor worm… It was strange, why did she feel so distressed by those words even though he had betrayed her first?

Somehow, she felt someone standing behind her.

She didn’t look back and heard Wei Lingnan’s voice. “Ah Luo.”

She was silent and did not move.

He stepped forward. “You heard everything?”

Her long eyelashes flickered, and she continued staring into the distance. “I wronged you. Sorry.”

The person behind did not move for a long time.

She turned her head and saw that his face was inches from hers. She was startled and was conditioned to step back, but he suddenly raised her chin. His lips fell on hers, brushing against her lips gently, kissing her affectionately.

Her back was leaning on the ancient trunk and she couldn’t move forward nor backward. She was forced to accept the kiss and gradually lost herself in it.

He let go of her, his eyes full of tenderness. “Ah Luo, I told you before, I have always loved only you. Do you believe me now? Don’t always refuse to stay beside me, I’ll…” He reached out, grabbed her hand and placed it gently on his heart. “I’ll hurt here.”

Under her palm, his heartbeat sounded clear.

She bowed her head hurriedly and did not look at him.

He said, “I love you.”

This time, she pulled her hand back. “Let’s go.”

Turning away without looking at him, she set foot on the forest path by herself. The World Tree mark on the palm of her hand was slightly hot as if something was calling her. She felt numb suddenly and accidentally stepped on air. She fell to the side.

Wei Lingnan held her up. “Ah Luo.”

Her body leaned against his arms, and she smelled the familiar taste of him. She finally looked up. His handsome eyebrows were right in front of her, dazzling like a sculpture. She stared at him, her eyes a little sad, and said rigidly to him, “You know, once the World Tree is born and our tribe people grow up, I will kill you.”

“I know.” His voice was calm. His knuckled fingers smoothed the top of her hair, the soft touch lingering. “I also know that you are reluctant to let me die alone. You will fall in love with me.”

Her eyes widened suddenly, and she refuted in reflex. “Impossible.”

He smiled. “Ah Luo, you can’t fool me.”

She broke away from him angrily and continued walking on the hill.

He followed her without a word.

The two returned to the shooting scene one after the other, and some staff greeted them. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, they didn’t disturb them. Xia Yingluo’s assistant gave her a script. “The director asked you to prepare, we’ll shoot this first.”

She nodded and walked under a tree to read the script.

Wei Lingnan stood in place, looking at her beautiful silhouette, his eyes softening a little.

The shooting took place in this delicate atmosphere.

She didn’t know if she was in a good mood because she learned the truth behind her injury, or because he had rejected Gu Jinxiu, but Xia Yingluo took extra care of him during the shoot. When his positioning was off and when he couldn’t say the next lines, she would prompt him seamlessly and cooperated more actively, so that the number of times he was cut was reduced.

<Star Wars Era 2> was a war movie with huge scenes. In addition to the first few scenes, the fighting scene was time for Wei Lingnan to showcase himself, and the end result was amazing. With more and more days of filming, the crew’s views on Wei Lingnan changed—

“No wonder Ms. Xia dares to use Wei Lingnan. Don’t look at the first few shots that he did not perform well in, he’s getting better, and his acting is impressive.”

“Yeah, those fighting scenes just made me feel all agitated. No wonder he doesn’t need a stuntman. Wei Lingnan’s live-action is perfect.”

“I didn’t expect him to have such good skills. He’s great.”

Xia Yingluo was resting off the field. She listened to their discussion and looked at Wei Lingnan, a smile appearing on the corner of her lips. Yes, his skill had always been very good. There were few rivals that could compete with him in the whole universe. Thus, it was naturally a piece of cake for him to shoot such scenes. She looked silently at the man climbing the steep mountain, and there was a sense of pride in her eyes that she didn’t even notice.

But suddenly, the man who was still running on the cliff suddenly slipped, and like a kite with a broken line, he fell towards the bottom of the cliff! “Ah—!” Many people saw this scene and exclaimed.

Xia Yingluo also saw it. She suddenly got up and didn’t even realize when she flipped the folding table beside her.

Her head blank, she ran towards the cliff. There was only one thought in her mind—nothing could happen to him!

She ran the short distance of a few hundred meters quickly, and someone held onto her. “Ms. Xia! You can’t go up! It’s dangerous! You can rest assured that Mr. Wei will be fine. He has hanging wires on his body and he didn’t fall down! He will be rescued soon!”
