The person who was touching up Lianyi's makeup was a stranger. When she came over, she took the powder puff and was about to apply it on Lianyi's face, but Lianyi tilted her head to avoid it. She was stunned for a moment and her hand stopped in mid-air, looking a little embarrassed.

Lianyi looked into the other person's eyes and said calmly:

"My skin is quite sensitive, so I prepare all the cosmetics I use myself, and I just let my assistant do the touch-ups."

The girl immediately withdrew her hand and said with an embarrassed expression:

"I'm sorry, Ms. Feng, I'm just here to help with the makeup, I didn't know you had such a request."

"It's okay, but these requirements of mine are written into the contract. I'm not being arrogant. After all, I have allergic skin. If there is a problem with my face, it will affect the filming."

Lian Yi said with a double meaning.

The girl's eyes were evasive and she immediately stepped aside, obviously not knowing how to respond.

At this time, Anli came to Lianyi with a makeup mirror and a powder puff, pushed the girl aside, and then carefully began to touch up Lianyi's makeup.

In fact, Anli was just pretending to add some powder and lipstick to Lianyi's face.

After the girl left, Lianyi whispered to Anli:
"Keep your eyes on that little girl. She added something to the powder she was going to use on me. I'm afraid my face will be rotten in two or three days."

"what?"

An Li paused, and said in surprise.

"It's true. Most people can't detect that powder. If I didn't have a keen sense of smell, I would have been fooled."

Lianyi tilted her head and continued.

"I see. I'll keep an eye on her soon. It would be great if we can get evidence that she did something bad."

"Just find a way to get the powder puff out of her hand."

Lianyi looked up and asked Anli to help her reapply lipstick.

"it is good!"

"Where's Anwen?"

"We are guarding our things, fearing that someone will take advantage of the opportunity to tamper with them."

An Li said quickly.

"Thank you for your hard work. We are now in someone else's territory. We must be careful. Are there any micro cameras installed in the residence?"

"It's installed. It was already turned on when I left. I'm sure I can capture any mosquitoes that fly in."

"That's good."

"Are you all ready? Let's start shooting the second scene."

Director Tang said while holding a small loudspeaker.

The person who was putting on makeup immediately stepped back from the camera, and after the shout of “shoot,” Lianyi and the male lead quickly got into the mood.

The three consecutive days of filming went very smoothly. Lianyi did not find anything unusual after returning to her residence. It seemed that the other party was not going to frame her this time, but she did not let her guard down.

After a week of filming, something went wrong with Lianyi, but it was not directed at Lianyi, but at the room where she lived. A thief sneaked into her room.

Moreover, the thief was encountered by An Li who went back to get her coat. An Li immediately shouted for help and then caught the man herself. She was not the kind of assistant who was powerless.

The other party obviously didn't expect that a delicate female assistant could be so powerful. He was unable to escape for a while and even used a knife in the end. However, the hotel security who heard the news also arrived at this time.

When the thief saw that something was not right, he grabbed a young man who had just opened the door to watch the fun, and threatened the security guard not to get close and let him go. The nature of the incident also changed from burglary to hostage-taking, and in the end it was the police who were alarmed.

When Lianyi got the news and rushed back to the temporary residence, the thief had already been caught. The unlucky young man had a cut on his neck. Fortunately, the aorta was not cut, but he still lost a lot of blood and was quickly sent to the hospital.

An Li followed the police who arrived to take a statement. Lian Yi and An Wen were responsible for counting personal belongings to see if any valuables were lost.

Lianyi only took a quick glance at the messy room and knew that the thief was looking for something, and she knew exactly what he was looking for.

However, she did not say much. She just roughly counted the things with An Wen, and then told the police that she had not lost any valuables.

"Officer, it should be because my assistant came back in time, so the other party didn't have time to steal anything. Other than the things being messed up, I didn't lose anything."

"Okay, I've already written it down. If you find that you've lost something, please feel free to contact me." Lian Yi immediately nodded politely and asked:

"When will my assistant be back? Is she hurt?"

"She can come back after she finishes her statement. She is quite skilled and not injured. However, the young man who was held hostage by the thief is in a miserable state."

The police officer closed the notebook and said helplessly.

This thief is really stupid. Attempted theft and intentional injury are two different things, and the sentencing is also different. Why use such extreme means to escape legal sanctions, when he will end up being sentenced even more severely?

Lianyi was relieved to hear that Anli was fine.

An Wen suggested:
"Lian Yi, let's change rooms!"

"Change, must change! This room is too unlucky."

Lianyi agreed with both hands and feet.

The hotel responded quickly and made compensation. After all, allowing a thief to sneak into the guest's room indirectly showed that their management was inadequate and the guest suffered losses, so they specially changed the floor for Lianyi and upgraded the room.

After Lianyi moved Anwen to the new room, she checked the surveillance footage and found that the thief was looking for something on purpose. After sneaking into the room, he went straight to Lianyi's dressing table and searched through her jewelry box.

"An Wen, did you see how he entered the room?"

Ripple suddenly asked.

An Wen rewound the video a little, watched the thief enter the room again, and then said:
"It seems he used the room card! Someone in the hotel is helping him! I wonder how such a high-end hotel could allow a thief to sneak in."

An Wen looked suddenly enlightened.

"Don't you think this thief is weird? Why doesn't he steal from others but only from me?"

Ripple asked thoughtfully.

"Need I say that? It must be directed at you."

An Wen said casually.

Ripple thought for a while and said:

"If I remember correctly, the hotel we are staying in now is owned by the Ruan Group."

"Yes, in order to save money, Director Tang arranged for the actors to stay in the investor's hotel. This can also be regarded as an indirect advertisement for the Ruan Group's hotel."

An Wen understood it more clearly and replied immediately.

"I see. We have to be more careful next time."

Lianyi instructed Anwen.

An Wen nodded, and just as she was about to ask her question, the doorbell rang. She opened the peephole and saw it was An Li.

"An Li, you're back! Did you run into any trouble at the police station?"

"I'm fine. I just had a few exchanges with that jerk. I'm pretty sure he's not just an ordinary thief."

An Li said calmly.

"What's so special about him?"

"He is a martial artist, and he is quite skilled. If he hadn't met me, he would have been able to escape."

An Li said affirmatively.

"Tsk, it's getting more and more interesting."

Lianyi smiled. It seemed that the other party was really anxious and even thought of such a shameful trick as stealing.

"What should we do next? Should we leave someone watching over the room?"

An Wen frowned.

"That's not necessary. Since they didn't find the thing this time, they should know that the thing is with me. I will let them see it. You just need to be responsible for my safety." (End of this chapter)
