Chapter 667: Accident
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xu Rui seemed to have been greatly frightened. Her pupils dilated, and there was lingering fear in her eyes. Her lost and helpless appearance was very lovable. Wu Dai walked to Xu Rui’s side and checked nervously. After confirming that Xu Rui was not injured, he heaved a sigh of relief and comforted her gently.
Xi De walked to Lu Zhen’s side. “Are you okay? Let me see your hand.”
Lu Zhen shook her head. “I’m fine.’
After a few seconds of confusion, Xu Rui walked towards Lu Zhen and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
The sudden apology made Lu Zhen not know how to respond. To be fair, it was Xu Rui’s fault that the two of them bumped into each other. Lu Zhen originally wouldn’t have touched Xu Rui. If Xu Rui hadn’t turned around and taken two steps towards Lu Zhen, this accident wouldn’t have happened.
However, in the eyes of the audience, this might not be the case.
The camera in the live-stream did not always focus on Lu Zhen and Xu Rui, so many viewers might not have seen Xu Rui take two steps towards Lu Zhen. The audience might only see the two of them suddenly collide.
At this moment, the number of bullet comments in the live- stream increased rapidly—
“I was shocked just now. Fortunately, they were all wearing protective suits.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have dared to imagine it.”
“If the reagent is sulfuric acid or something like that, that would be terrifying. ”
“What’s wrong with Lu Zhen? She’s so clumsy. How can she make a mistake with a reagent bottle?”
“What does the person in front mean? The two of them bumped into each other, which means that Xu Rui didn’t pay attention. It’s hard to say whose fault it is!”
“Why are Lu Zhen’s fans so shameless? Didn’t you see that our Ruirui was almost injured? We haven’t even asked Lu Zhen to apologize, and you’re still blaming the victim? You’ve really made the victim guilty!’
“That’s right. Look, Ruirui even took the initiative to apologize to Lu Zhen and give her a way out. My heart really aches for our Ruirui. She still has to take the blame after suffering a loss.”
“What can we do? A certain female celebrity has a high status. We can’t afford to offend her. Look, just say a few words to her and her fans will start to distort the truth.’
Xiaoxiao, who had been watching the live-stream, had a bad feeling when she saw the contents of the comments. She immediately asked the representative of the fan club to comfort the fans and tell them not to be agitated, let alone quarrel with Xu Rui’s fans.
After the accident, the emcee quickly adapted to the situation. After easing the tense atmosphere, he guided the four of them to continue with the scientific experiment. This was naturally not appropriate, but the emcee had no choice. If the live-stream was paused because of the accident, it would only make the accident look more serious.
Letting the experiment continue would more or less give the audience a psychological hint that this sudden accident did not bring about too serious consequences. And this was the truth. No one was injured at the event location.
The experiment continued. In less than two minutes, Xu Rui walked to Lu
Zhen’s side again with an apologetic expression. “I’m really sorry.”
Xu Rui’s voice was not loud, but her expression was clearly captured by the camera and displayed in the live-stream. Lu Zhen tightened her grip on the reagent bottle and controlled her expression. She smiled gently. “It’s fine. It’s good that you’re not injured.”
Xu Rui smiled and lowered her voice. “Of course I’m fine.’
Lu Zhen took a deep breath. If she didn’t have enough mental fortitude, she might really be angered by Xu Rui. However, after experiencing so much, her mental fortitude was extraordinarily strong. She was only a little depressed and disgusted by Xu Rui’s actions.
Lu Zhen did not say anything else. She walked around Xu Rui and stood on the other side of the table. Disappointment flashed in Xu Rui’s eyes. She pursed her lips and continued with the experiment with her usual expression.
Soon, this episode of the variety show came to an end. The production team pulled out a huge banner that had been customized on the stage. On it was written: “l wish the movie ‘Beauty a huge box office success!”
A few main leads stood behind the banner. Xu Rui’s smile was clear and sweet. She was extremely expressive.
Lu Zhen’s smile was reserved and gentle. After leaving the event location, Lu Zhen quickly got into the company’s car. Xiaoxiao sat in the car, opened the thermos, and handed it to her. Then, she said angrily, “This Xu Rui, who is she doing this for?! She’s really acting more than in the production team!”
Lu Zhen took a sip of water. Her expression was calm and she did not look affected. She had been in the entertainment industry for two lifetimes. If she still did not know what disgusting things would happen in this industry, she would have lived in vain.
Celebrities were like this. When they weren’t popular, they would be bullied and robbed of resources. When they were popular, they would easily be placed on a shelf to be roasted..
