“But Director Zhao, you really did something wrong this time. Do you know the specialness of Jiang Xiao’s identity?”

As Xia Wei spoke, she looked at Zhao Ying and continued with a frown, “He’s not someone you can control. With him around, the show won’t go smoothly no matter what. Even without what just happened, the conflict between him and Jian Tan will erupt sooner or later! I took the initiative to look for you to discuss with you how to deal with this matter.”

Zhao Ying naturally knew that what Xia Wei said made sense. He thought for a moment and replied, “Just tell us what to do. Our production team is willing to cooperate with you. As long as you and Jian Tan complete all the subsequent recordings, we can negotiate any conditions.”

Zhao Ying paused. After thinking of something, he asked hesitantly, “Do you want me to talk to Jiang Xiao now?”

Hearing Zhao Ying’s words, Xia Wei slowly stopped frowning.

She thought for a moment and looked at Zhao Ying. Just as she was about to say something, the staff reported that Jiang Xiao was back.

Xia Wei was shocked and immediately turned around.

As expected, who else could it be but Jiang Xiao?

The cameraman who was following Jiang Xiao looked at the redness and bruises on his face and felt uneasy. They did not dare to ask what had happened to Jiang Xiao and could only continue filming him in silence like before.

A few minutes later, the others saw Jiang Xiao’s face clearly.

“Ah! What’s wrong with your face? This…” It looked like he had been punched! As Shen Fei spoke, she reacted quickly and realized that something was wrong. She immediately stopped talking.

Her gaze changed, and she avoided this big issue lightly. She said, “What’s wrong with you? Did you fall on a horse? Didn’t you chase after Xia Wei and the others just now? Did you not catch up, or did you not meet them?”

Jiang Xiao let go of the horse rope and looked up at the people around him. He frowned and did not answer Shen Fei’s question.

When his gaze landed on Jian Tan, his eyes suddenly darkened. Only Shen Fei and Su Chu, who were very close to him, and Li Xian, who was sitting on the sidelines, saw that.

Seeing that Jiang Xiao had no intention of speaking, Su Chu thought for a moment and reminded him tentatively, “Why don’t we call the doctor from the team over to take a look first? It looks quite serious.”

Lin Shuang hurriedly nodded and said, “Yes, yes. Jiang Xiao, quickly get the doctor to take a look. It should be better after applying ice!”

Actually, Zhao Ying would not let Jiang Xiao’s wounds be untreated in the live-stream even without the repeated reminders of the female guests. He wasn’t going to play with fire!

The team doctor with the team quickly walked up and wanted to take Jiang Xiao to the side to treat his wound, but Jiang Xiao did not respond. He just stood rooted to the ground.

Not understanding what Jiang Xiao wanted to do, Xia Wei walked out of the tent at the side and stood beside him at a distance. Her indifferent brows were filled with scrutiny and vigilance!

To Jiang Xiao, such a gaze was like a blade on his back. He mocked himself inwardly and the corners of his lips curled up into a mocking smile. He suddenly looked Xia Wei in the eye. When he spoke, he actually covered up for Jian Tan as if nothing had happened. “I’m fine. I just accidentally fell off my horse and hit the corner of my mouth. Everyone, don’t worry about me.”

The corners of his mouth twitched as he spoke. After a very soft hiss, he found a seat for himself to sit down.

Although Jiang Xiao said that he was fine, the team doctor still went forward to treat him. The atmosphere in the venue became inexplicably quiet for a moment. No one spoke.

After hearing Jiang Xiao’s “falling off the horse excuse”, Xia Wei really did not understand what this person wanted to do!

Half an hour ago, he was clearly irreconcilable with Jian Tan and could not wait to fight him to the death. Why did he suddenly change his mind after such a short time?

As if sensing the doubts in Xia Wei’s heart, Jiang Xiao turned his face and looked at her steadily when the doctor applied ice and medicine on him.

How could Jian Tan tolerate Jiang Xiao’s arrogance? He stood up and was about to walk towards Jiang Xiao, a storm brewing in his eyes.

However, he had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by Xia Wei. “Jian Tan! We should go over and continue with the mission. The other teams have already completed it. We’re the only ones left..”
