Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Who Can Prove?
“You said I, just a little assistant, have slept with the director, so does that mean your title as a movie queen was entirely ‘slept’ through?”
Mu Jiaqi’s face turned red as she suddenly threw off the covers and charged out of the hospital bed towards Gu Qiangwei!
Watching the furious Mu Jiaqi, Gu Qiangwei seemed to anticipate her next move and leisurely shifted to the side, causing Mu Jiaqi to miss and lunge into empty air!
With her clawing and baring her teeth like that, she hardly looked like a celebrity.
“What do you think it would look like if a group of reporters appeared right now?”
At those words, Mu Jiaqi’s body stiffened, and she frantically turned to look at the entrance of the hospital room.
Outside, every word and action of hers were beyond her control; one careless move could make tomorrow’s headlines.
“Stop the noise!” At this moment, a police officer spoke up, turning his gaze towards Mu Jiaqi, “Miss Mu, please calm down as well.”
Only when the police officer spoke did Mu Jiaqi remember something, suppressing her anger and temporarily calming down.
With Feifei’s suppression, she couldn’t believe Gu Qiangwei wouldn’t be dealt with!
Returning to the hospital bed, Mu Jiaqi didn’t speak again but watched as the police took Gu Qiangwei away.
“Miss Gu, someone has testified that you indeed pushed Mu Jiaqi into the water. Unless you can find evidence proving your absence, you’ll have to come with me.”
Gu Qiangwei turned her gaze, “I’ve said, I was in the dressing room fetching her clothes at that time.”
“Did anyone see you?”
Gu Qiangwei was startled.
Everyone was busy starting the shoot, arranging the scene and lighting around the pool. No one was in the dressing room.
She truly couldn’t find anyone to prove she was indeed in the dressing room, but with so many people around, surely someone must have seen her go there?
“No, but if you just ask around, someone definitely saw.”
“Sorry, but we’ve already inquired about this. Indeed, someone saw you going to the other end of the pool, and then Miss Mu went over as well. Less than five minutes later, the drowning incident occurred.”
Hearing the police officer’s words, Gu Qiangwei remembered the situation at that time.
“I really did go over there, but that was because I had to answer a phone call.”
“Did Miss Mu go there to find you too?”
Gu Qiangwei was startled, and a wave of unease began to spread.
Upon thinking carefully, a big star like Mu Jiaqi wouldn’t personally go fetch her clothes; she would definitely send someone else to do it with a command.
So, had Mu Jiaqi been plotting this conspiracy from that time?
Still, she didn’t understand why she would do this.
If it was just because she was afraid of losing the role, simply not falling into the water would have prevented anything, and she would still be tonight’s lead actress. What could be the reason that she would go through so much trouble to frame her for this crime?
“She did come looking for me, but I had already left before she left there.”
“Can anyone confirm that?”
Gu Qiangwei was silent.
She didn’t have the ability to foresee the future, how could she possibly know such an incident would occur, and find someone to prove her innocence!
“If there’s no one, then I am afraid you’ll have to come with us to the station for now to undergo an investigation.”
Gu Qiangwei didn’t speak again; this affair had been meticulously schemed from the start, so her defending herself was futile.
Gaze shifting to Mu Jiaqi, she wondered what exactly had transpired between them.
