Ma Ting struggled desperately, but to no avail, she was forcibly locked in the back room by the Qian Family guards.

It was tantamount to being imprisoned.

"Why am I being put under house arrest?!" Ma Ting shouted angrily at Qian Hongxuan.

Humph!

Qian Hongxuan snorted coldly, "Simply because you are still my family's granddaughter-in-law, and you have brought disgrace to the Qian Family by not being faithful."

Ma Ting was furious, "How dare you accuse me of being unfaithful? Isn't your grandson Qian Yuntian keeping several mistresses outside? Don't think I'm unaware!"

Qian Hongxuan stared coldly at Ma Ting, "Listen carefully, my grandson married you only for the alliance between the two families, and now that your Ma Family is practically non-existent, you have no right to shout at me!"

After saying this, he looked at the guards, "Watch her closely, don't let her step out of the courtyard."

"Yes, Patriarch." The four guards responded, bowing.

Qian Hongxuan walked towards the main room in the front yard and said to the butler, "Notify the eldest son and Young Master Yuntian to return to the Qian Family immediately."

Not long after, Qian Jianhua and Qian Yuntian, father and son, arrived in the main room.

"Dad, what's the urgency that you called us over for?" Qian Jianhua asked.

Qian Hongxuan gestured for the father and son to sit down, "Yuntian, your wife Ma Ting has been imprisoned by me."

Hmm?

Qian Yuntian's eyes widened, "Grandfather, are you planning to deal with the Ma Family's assets? Why not just kill that slut? I've long been sick of her!"

Qian Hongxuan waved his hand, "There was a little mishap, and we can't deal with Ma Ting for the moment."

He briefly explained the situation.

Qian Jianhua frowned deeply, "That Chen Xuan kid has such power, it's unbelievable!"

"But Dad, after all, our Qian Family is a top family in Jiangbei, how can we be threatened by Chen Xuan!"

Qian Yuntian snorted coldly, "Grandfather, even if Chen Xuan has Su Dahai and Zhang Zhibao helping him, our Qian Family isn't easy to mess with!"

"Secretly hire someone to eliminate Chen Xuan, that would solve everything!"

Qian Hongxuan shook his head, "The timing isn't right, let's not act recklessly for now."

"As long as we have Ma Ting, the Ma Family's assets will eventually be ours."

"The urgent task is to subtly take control of Ma Family's assets through gradual influence."

"Understood, I'll expedite operations to get this done," Qian Jianhua nodded in agreement.

Qian Hongxuan nodded, "Alright then, as long as you keep this in mind."

"Also, be especially wary of the Ling Family, the Ma Family's assets must not be touched by them!"

...

More than half a month passed, and the film's shooting was nearing completion.

Only the last scene remained, where the plane successfully makes an emergency landing, and all the emotional conflicts between the male and female lead dissolve, and they embrace each other, reconciled and back to the way they were.

However, during the filming of this part, a small accident occurred, Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't stand steadily and unfortunately injured her head, needing to be rushed to the hospital.

Upon hearing the news, Lin Wanxi rushed to the hospital to visit.

Soon after, Chen Xuan also arrived.

After inquiring with the doctor, they learned that Ling Xiaoxiao's injury was quite serious, with a blood bubble formed inside her head.

But the problem wasn't significant, as the blood bubble would dissipate on its own with some rest and recovery.

Lin Wanxi and Chen Xuan both breathed a sigh of relief; it was indeed a blessing in disguise.

However, Ling Xiaoxiao refused to lie in the hospital bed and insisted on going back to the set to finish filming the last group of shots.

"Xiaoxiao, there's no rush, you should rest for a few days first."

Lin Wanxi gently comforted her.

"President Lin, thank you for your kindness, but I can't delay all the crew members because of me."

"It's only the last group of shots remaining, and my injury isn't serious enough to prevent me from continuing to film."

Ling Xiaoxiao, ignoring her condition, insisted on filming the last group of shots before agreeing to be hospitalized for recovery.

Unable to dissuade Ling Xiaoxiao, Lin Wanxi reluctantly agreed, not without expressing her admiration — Ling Xiaoxiao was truly a dedicated actor.

"Chen Xuan, you should stay with Xiaoxiao at the set for the next couple of days. If there's any emergency, you can step in to help."

Lin Wanxi looked at Chen Xuan, essentially assigning him a special task.

"Alright, no problem," Chen Xuan agreed readily.

Chen Xuan drove Ling Xiaoxiao back to the set, preparing to complete the final group of shots.

On set, Zhu Feng watched as Chen Xuan supported Ling Xiaoxiao and approached, his eyes full of jealousy.

"Let go! You're just a driver, don't you know your place?"

"How dare you take the opportunity to get close to Ling Xiaoxiao, trying to get a piece of the pie! Step aside!"

Zhu Feng stormed over, casting a cold glance at Chen Xuan, then turned to fawn over Ling Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, are you okay? Let me help you over to rest."

Chen Xuan immediately understood that Zhu Feng had a thing for Ling Xiaoxiao, and was flaunting his power as the male lead, trying to dominate him...
