He finally understood why his uncle had imdiately kicked him upon arrival.
If his current self could travel back in ti, forget being kicked—Wu Chao would want to take a knife to himself. If the Wu family's legacy was destroyed at his hands, he truly wouldn't have the face to go on living.
"Hurry up and tell exactly how you provoked Master Xia. Don't you dare skip a single word."
"Okay, okay."
Taking a deep breath to steady his voice, Wu Chao began to recount to his father exactly what had just happened, not omitting a single detail.
anwhile, on the film set, Xia Liang was looking up at the actors filming a scene with the wire rigging. Director Wu had asked him if he wanted to make a cao in the movie to experience it for himself, but Xia Liang flatly refused.
Seeing Xia Liang's refusal, Director Wu couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He was certain that with Xia Liang's status, a re cao would be enough to make the tycoons of Jinling and Haojiang book out entire cinemas for their companies and families. At that point, never mind the box office boost, his own status would likely rise simply because Xia Liang had appeared in his film.
As for Director Wu's apology, Xia Liang hadn't taken it to heart. Xia Liang had already been aware of Director Wu's actions and worries at the ti. After confirming multiple tis that Xia Liang truly wasn't angry, the director finally breathed a sigh of relief and devoted himself entirely to filming.
Xia Liang continued to watch from the side. However, a small smile played on his lips.
Why does it feel like a hostile gaze has been fixed on this whole ti?
In the distance, a scene wrapped up, and Xia Liang turned to look in a direction behind him. Over there, a young man was staring daggers at him, seemingly very displeased.
Looking at the young man, Xia Liang felt a little helpless. He pinched his fingers to divine whether the young man's fate had changed after the earlier incident. However, he had barely begun the divination when he was taken aback. Wu Jiasheng was still going to die in a few days.
Seeing that Wu Jiasheng's destiny trajectory went blank a few days into the future, Xia Liang frowned, finding it strange. He had altered Wu Jiasheng's destiny trajectory back then by calling Director Wu and having him take the boy away. But now, it seed he hadn't actually managed to save Wu Jiasheng from the threat of death. It looked like those people had no intention of letting Wu Jiasheng go.
Seeing the na of the killer in Wu Jiasheng's future path, Xia Liang didn't hesitate and began his calculations. After all, Director Wu was his favorite director, and he was unwilling to see the man's son get into trouble. Furthermore, he didn't want to see a great director who had brought Dragon Country's cinema to the world stage end up with no one to see him off in his final monts.
Besides, he had always abided by a principle: he couldn't help everyone, but he wouldn't be stingy with those whose paths he crossed by fate.
He had also carefully examined Wu Jiasheng's past destiny trajectory, which helped him understand why the boy had turned out the way he did. A long ti ago, Wu Jiasheng had actually been the one who was bullied. His personality had only changed due to certain events. Besides, he had never done anything truly terrible; at most, he got into fights and was a bit rebellious. That was all quite normal for soone his age. In fact, so details from Wu Jiasheng's past were enough to make even Xia Liang pity him.
As for the people trying to harm Wu Jiasheng, they were an underground group from Xiangjiang. In their early years, they had engaged in the sa kind of sordid business as Fang Liwen's crew. Although they had since laundered their reputation significantly, they were still no saints and secretly cooperated with Fang Liwen's group. Wu Jiasheng had accidentally disrupted one of their deals, causing them significant losses, which was why they were now seeking revenge.
They didn't care who you were or what kind of backing you had. Once you provoked them, they would latch on and never let go. And because they were so clean in their operations, leaving no clues behind, the Protectors of Xiangjiang were at their wits' end with them. This group was even more difficult to handle than Fang Liwen and his n.
After all, with people like Fang Liwen, a conviction was guaranteed as long as you could catch them. But even if you arrested the leader of this new group, you could only hold him for twenty-four hours. After all, they could never find any evidence of his cris.
However, none of this was even an issue for Xia Liang. If he wanted to deal with this group, a single thought was all it would take.
Examining the past destiny trajectory of the group's leader, Xia Liang frowned. This person's destiny trail was no cleaner than Fang Liwen's; calling him a wolf in sheep's clothing was no exaggeration. Moreover, within this leader's destiny, Xia Liang was surprised to find sothing related to himself. This group was actually investigating him, planning to avenge their partner, Fang Liwen.
Now this is interesting.
Chuckling softly, Xia Liang clicked his tongue and made a few modifications to the man's future destiny trajectory. He didn't want to waste any ti, nor did he feel the need to show off. A simple flick of his fingers would suffice.
At the sa ti, he also modified the destiny trajectory of another high-ranking mber of the group, causing him to accidentally leak all of their criminal evidence.
