Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1793 Old Liang Family Residence, Rescued

When Fang Yu saw that the black shadow in the well didn’t move, he thought that something had happened to Zhou Chengfei. He was a little anxious, so he simply had Lu Ningwen hang onto him so that he could stretch his hand further down into the well as he continued to urge Zhou Chengfei to work hard to climb up. He just had to grab Zhou Chengfei’s hand later.

Lu Ningwen struggled to hold him and was worried that Fang Yu would fall in as well. He was about to turn around and ask Director Huang if he had found a rope, when he was suddenly pulled away by a force behind him.

It wasn’t just Lu Ningwen, but Fang Yu as well. The two of them were immediately pulled away from the well. Caught off guard, Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu were simply scared out of their wits. They turned around and were about to scold the person for messing around, when they saw that it was a very beautiful young lady. The two remembered that not only was she Film Empress Song’s assistant, she also seemed to be related to Brother Qi Hao.

How could the two men argue with a young lady? They immediately swallowed their curses. However, they were a little unhappy that they had been interrupted in the middle of rescuing someone. The two didn’t forget about Zhou Chengfei and couldn’t be bothered to argue with the young lady in front of them. They turned around and were about to immediately return to the well to rescue him, when the young lady in front of them suddenly pushed the two away and said calmly, “I’ll do it!”

Then, the two watched as the young lady nimbly reached into the well in Fang Yu’s place.

Director Huang stomped his foot in anger and had a lot of objections in his heart, but he paused at Chi Shuyan’s behavior. No matter what, she had good intentions and wanted to save Chengfei.

Director Huang could only suppress the anger in his heart and continue looking for a vine. At that moment, no one noticed the chill in Chi Shuyan’s eyes as she looked into the well; there was no emotion or warmth in them.

The figure in the well shrank back. At that moment, Director Huang was pleasantly surprised. “I found a vine. If it’s thick enough or long enough, we’ll see if we can pull Chengfei out of the well.”

“That’s great!” Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen sighed with relief and happiness when they saw that Director Huang had finally found a vine.

Chi Shuyan took the vine from Director Huang and dropped it into the well. Her agile movements stunned Director Huang, Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen. When the men saw that the young lady was doing all the rescuing, they were embarrassed and worried that she wouldn’t be strong enough to pull Chengfei up, and he would drop back down. They immediately went up to pull him up.

Chi Shuyan didn’t have much of an expression on her face. Not long after, ‘Zhou Chengfei’ was pulled out of the well. At that moment, Director Huang, Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen were very excited and happy to see that Zhou Chengfei was fine.

Fang Yu and the others shone their flashlights on Zhou Chengfei. Seeing that his clothes were only a little messy and that he could still stand, he should be fine!

Director Huang ran over excitedly and almost hugged Zhou Chengfei. “Chengfei, it’s good that you’re fine. By the way, where are you hurt? Can you still walk? Shall I carry you back?”

Fortunately, Zhou Chengfei was fine. If something really happened, him quitting the show was a small matter, but asking them to pay damage compensation would be a big deal. When the time came, Director Huang would probably be the one who would have to bear all the responsibility, and he wouldn’t be able to do so. Seeing that Zhou Chengfei could still stand on his own two feet, Director Huang didn’t dwell on it, and was excited and glad that Zhou Chengfei was fine.

Chi Shuyan was expressionless, but her deep gaze never left Zhou Chengfei as soon as he came out of the well. Zhou Chengfei forced out a smile on his stiff face and said, “I’m fine. I just sprained my ankle. I accidentally fell into the well earlier. Fortunately, I caught something on the way down, which softened my fall, so nothing happened!”

Sure enough!

Director Huang believed Zhou Chengfei’s explanation at once. He immediately pressed his palms together and repeatedly expressed that this was Buddha’s blessing. Chengfei was really lucky to be fine this time. That was great! That was great!

Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen hesitated for only a moment before they believed him. After all, they felt that there was no need for Zhou Chengfei to lie to them about this matter. Besides, he was indeed standing in front of them now. The two of them couldn’t help but sigh at Zhou Chengfei’s good luck.

“Okay, okay, it’s good that everyone is fine. It’s a little late now. Let’s hurry back.” Director Huang did want to carry Zhou Chengfei on his back, but he was of average height and wasn’t strong. He probably wouldn’t be able to carry Zhou Chengfei, who was more than 1.8 meters tall.

He thought for a moment before he turned around to ask for Du Zhong’s help, only to see that he had disappeared. That guy had been here earlier, standing right behind Fang Yu – who knew where he had run off to. Director Huang was scared out of his wits, afraid that something had happened to Du Zhong as well. “Where’s Du Zhong? Where’s that rascal? Where is he? Wasn’t he here just now?”

Lu Ningwen frowned and replied, “Director Huang, maybe Brother Du went back to get a rope? When he saw that you couldn’t find a vine earlier, he might really have gone back to find a rope. Let’s go back and take a look first. Brother Chengfei’s injuries are more important.”

Lu Ningwen’s last sentence immediately dispelled Director Huang’s desire to continue looking. He couldn’t care less about Du Zhong at that moment. He, Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu took turns carrying Chengfei back. As for the young lady with them, she seemed to be Film Empress Song’s ‘personal assistant,’ so Director Huang was still very polite toward her.

On the way back, he spoke to this ‘assistant’ from time to time so that she wouldn’t feel neglected. Unfortunately, this ‘assistant’ of Film Empress Song seemed very aloof and didn’t like to talk. Director Huang lamented in his heart that she was even colder than the film empress. However, when this young lady had helped rescue Chengfei earlier, she had been very agile and decisive. She was also strong, so Director Huang still had a very good impression of her.
