Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband

1963 Just To Meet You

This tree was very tall, about five stories tall and 15 meters tall. When Ning Nuo reached the top, she would stand on the top of the tree and make a move before jumping down.

Old Li stared at her intently. When he saw her fly to the highest point, he didn’t dare to look anymore. He closed his eyes and looked elsewhere.

As it took a lot of effort to do this, the others were focused on their work. No one paid much attention to Old Li’s sneaky behavior.

A moment later, with everyone’s combined efforts, Ning Nuo came down.

Old Li stared in her direction. What was going on?

Why… didn’t Ning Nuo fall?

He had clearly tampered with the equipment!

Old Li panicked and quietly hid to the side. He was so nervous that his hands were covered in sweat.

“Old Li, Director Luo wants you to go over and help,” someone called out.

When Old Li heard that his help was needed, he quickly went over. However, he found it strange. Why would Director Luo personally ask a small fry like him for help?

As he thought about it, he quickly arrived at Director Luo’s office.

He knocked on the door.

Someone stepped forward and opened the door for him. “Come in,” they said.

The person who opened the door was Tao Tao. Old Li recognized her. She was Ning Nuo’s assistant, a little girl who was not scheming.

After opening the door, she sat down at the side.

Only then did Old Li see clearly that Director Luo and Ning Nuo were both there.

He immediately felt sweat gather on his forehead, and his back was drenched in sweat.

“Director… Director Luo, Miss Ning.” Old Li’s voice was trembling. The look of nervousness on his honest face was obscured by his tanned complexion.

Director Luo said seriously, “Nuo Nuo has something to ask you. Just be honest.”

“I’m just an ordinary worker. I work obediently every day. I wonder what Miss Ning has to ask me?” Old Li’s words were lacking in confidence.

“Old Li, then I’ll get straight to the point,” Ning Nuo said directly. “During the filming today, there was a problem with the wires. When I reached the top of the tree, the two main wires were all broken, so I want to ask you what’s going on. If I had fallen from such a high place at that time, I would have been either dead or injured. I don’t know if this matter is targeted at me alone or all the other members of the production team. With such a huge safety hazard, the entire production team will naturally take it very seriously.”

“I’m not sure! Was there something wrong with the wires? Then we’ll check the wires properly,” Old Li immediately said.

Ning Nuo smiled, but her smile did not reach her eyes.

She originally thought that this person had made a mistake because he was muddle-headed.

Now, it seemed that he had come to argue with her while repeating the same mistake.

Director Luo was also very angry. He could not tolerate such a thing happening on his set!

“It’s easy to determine if there’s a problem with the wires or with the person. But as far as I know, you were personally in charge of the two broken wires.”

“Fortunately, nothing serious happened. Otherwise, you really would have died. I’ll examine everything properly in the future!” The more Old Li spoke, the less flustered he became.

In any case, no one was injured. It was not a big deal to claim responsibility for this.

Ning Nuo smiled and said, “But there were traces of artificial partitions on those two ropes. Also, if I hadn’t asked Tao Tao to add two more wires to me, I would have fallen to my death.”

Old Li was really shocked now. No wonder Ning Nuo was fine!

It turned out that she had added two wires!

Was she prepared for this?

“This morning, I had a video call with my friend. I wasn’t paying much attention to the environment of the production team at first, but my friend saw the person handling the wires. His actions were a little suspicious and sneaky, so my friend specially reminded me.” Ning Nuo really wanted to thank Ouyang Lujia for making this video call. If it weren’t for his reminder, she would have really died.

She raised her eyebrows and sneered. “I’ve observed for a while. The others were all doing their work seriously, but you, who has always been honest, were restless today. You’ve received countless calls and have been observing my situation. That’s why I asked Tao Tao to specially prepare extra wires so that I could protect myself. Then, during the shoot, I specially asked her to record the situation at the event location. You’re the only one who kept observing me countless times while the others were seriously listening to the director’s orders.”

Old Li was sweating profusely. He was completely unaware of these things.

When he chose to hurt Ning Nuo during the shoot, he thought that the director would not record the situation in the venue and he would not be seen.

However, he did not expect that everything was under Ning Nuo’s control.

Director Luo couldn’t help but take a few deep looks at Ning Nuo. His previous impression of her was similar to the outside world—she was just an idiot.

Later on, after watching Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, although his opinion of her changed, it was not completely changed. He felt that such a delicate little girl still needed to live under the protection of others. He also felt that Lin Yu must have been the one who helped her change her image previously. Otherwise, she would not have been able to achieve this in such a short time.

Now that he saw how thoughtful and decisive she was, he realized that he had underestimated her.

Old Li wiped his sweat and said, “Miss Ning, I don’t know how I’ve offended you, but you can just talk things out with me. I’m a boorish man. I’ve done things inconsiderately this time, so please forgive me. However, I really didn’t do any of the things you said. If you have evidence, just arrest me. I’ll definitely cooperate. But if I didn’t do it, then I didn’t do it!”

Old Li was going all out. He would not admit it even if he was beaten to death!

Anyway, there were no serious consequences, and Ning Nuo did not have any direct evidence. Even if he was fired from the production team, it would not be a big problem.

Moreover, every word he said pushed the blame onto Ning Nuo, hinting that he had somehow offended her so she was taking revenge on him now.

Ning Nuo could not help but be interested. This honest man indeed had a heart that did not match his appearance. No wonder he was chosen to carry out this task.

It seemed that the mastermind behind the scenes was quite good at choosing people!

Amazing, really amazing!

“Tao Tao, come here for a moment!” Ning Nuo shouted.

Tao Tao quickly jogged over. “Sister Nuo Nuo.”

“Didn’t I ask Brother Yong to check Old Li’s family background? Have you found anything?”
