Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 697 An accident

"Ms. Wang, is your leg injury serious? Will it affect the following filming?"

"Mr. Lin, do you have anything to say about this accident?"

Reporters rushed to pass the microphone to Lin Ke and Wang Xinxin, asking questions at once.

Lin Ke and Wang Xinxin looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Dear journalists, please be quiet for a moment." Director Li stepped out to maintain order upon seeing this. "Mr. Lin and Ms. Wang just experienced an accident, and they have been greatly shocked both physically and mentally. They need to rest now. If you have any questions, after they have rested, our crew will hold a press conference and give you all unified answers, okay?"

Director Li's words made the scene a little quieter, but the reporters still refused to leave. They surrounded Lin Ke and Wang Xinxin with their cameras, fearing that they would miss any details.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the crowd, pushed away the reporter in front of her, and rushed towards Lin Ke.

"Lin Ke, give me back my son, give me back my son!"

The sharp cry cut through the originally calm air and stunned everyone present.

Lin Ke looked carefully and found that the person rushing over was none other than Meng Ming's mother.

Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red, her face was full of tear marks, and her already thin body looked even more haggard.

"Give me back my son, give me back my son! It was you who killed my son!" Mother Meng cried and shouted while trying to rush to Lin Ke, but was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed security guard.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

"Who is that woman? Why did she ask Lin Ke for her son?"

"Could it be that Lin Ke is really related to the death of the villager named Meng Ming?"

The reporters were immediately excited and pointed their cameras at Meng's mother and Lin Ke, fearing that they would miss any exciting scenes.

"Click! Click!" Countless flashes lit up, freezing Meng's mother's hoarse cries and the surprised expressions of the people around her.

Some quick-witted reporters have already started recording Meng's mother, hoping to capture more and more explosive scenes.

The crew members were in chaos. Director Li directed the security guards to stop Meng Mu and shouted, "Please get all the irrelevant people out!"

"Don't touch me! Don't touch me!" Meng's mother struggled desperately, trying to break through the security guards' obstruction, "Lin Ke, you murderer, you have to compensate my son!"

Lin Ke looked at the heartbroken mother in front of him with mixed feelings.

He knew that Meng Ming's death was a huge blow to Meng's mother, but he could not tolerate Meng's mother slandering him without any basis.

"Auntie, please calm down." Lin Ke stepped forward and said calmly, "I'm sorry about Meng Ming's death, but I didn't hurt him. He accidentally fell into the water and drowned."

"You're talking nonsense! My son is a good swimmer, how could he have drowned?" Mother Meng pointed at Lin Ke's nose and shouted at the top of her lungs, "It must be you, you must have killed him!"

"Auntie, I know you are very sad now, but please don't slander me." Lin Ke's tone was still calm, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. "If you have evidence to prove that I killed Meng Ming, you can go to the police, but if you don't have evidence, please don't make trouble here."

"You..." Meng's mother was choked by Lin Ke's words. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but found that she had nothing to say.

She couldn't say that she wanted to do something bad to Lin Ke and Wang Xinxin, but ended up drowning, right?

"Auntie, please calm down. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk it out." Director Li saw this and hurried forward to persuade her.

"Yes, Auntie, please calm down first." Wang Xinxin also stepped forward and said softly, "If there is anything, we will solve it slowly."

"Go away! All of you go away!" Meng's mother pushed Director Li and Wang Xinxin away, pointed at Lin Ke's nose and cursed, "Lin Ke, you murderer, you will not have a good death!" "Auntie, please watch your words!" Lin Ke's face turned completely cold, "I'll say it again, I didn't kill Meng Ming. If you continue to act like this, don't blame me for being rude!"

"You...what do you want to do?" Meng's mother was frightened by Lin Ke's cold eyes and subconsciously took a step back.

"I don't want to do anything. I just want you to know that I'm not someone you can easily bully." Lin Ke said coldly, "If you dare to slander me again, I will definitely hold you accountable for your legal actions!"

"You..." Meng's mother wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the crew member beside her.

"Auntie, please calm down. If you continue to make trouble like this, we will call the police." A staff member stepped forward and said in a stern tone.

Mother Meng looked at the staff around her who were eyeing her with eager eyes, then looked at Lin Ke who had a cold face, and finally chose to shut up.

She knew that she wouldn't get any advantage today.

"Auntie, are you okay?" Seeing that Meng's mother was silent, Wang Xinxin kindly stepped forward to ask.

"Go away! Stop being hypocritical!" Meng's mother waved Wang Xinxin's hand away, glared at her fiercely, then turned and left.

"Xinxin, ignore her." Director Li held Wang Xinxin and whispered, "Let's go first."

Lin Ke looked deeply at Meng Mu's back, then turned around and left with Director Li and Wang Xinxin.

"Lin Ke, don't take it to heart. Meng's mother just couldn't accept it at the moment, so she said something without thinking." Director Li comforted Lin Ke.

"I know, Director Li." Lin Ke nodded to show his understanding.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Wang Xinxin asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Lin Ke shook his head and gave Wang Xinxin a reassuring smile.

"That's good." Wang Xinxin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, let's get in the car first." Director Li said.

The group got in the car and left this troubled place.

……

After returning to the hotel, Wang Xinxin was arranged to go to the hospital for a full body examination.

Although she said she was fine, Wang Ze was still worried and insisted that she have a comprehensive check-up before he would feel at ease.

The same thing happened to Lin Ke, who was also arranged to go to the hospital for examination.

Although he was not injured, he had been in the water for so long, so it would be better to check it out.

In the hospital, Lin Ke met Wang Xinxin.

"Why are you here too?" Wang Xinxin was a little surprised to see Lin Ke.

"Are you here for a check-up too?" Lin Ke repeated Wang Xinxin's words with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"Yes, my dad is worried about me and insisted that I have a full body check-up before he would feel at ease." Wang Xinxin smiled helplessly, but her tone was full of happiness. "You also know my dad. I am his only precious daughter, and he wants to hold me in the palm of his hand."
