Chapter 351: Chapter 349 Poisoned 2

Among those affected were Qiao Xi and Xu Anfeng.

As the main characters of the film, the progression of the entire production depended on them.

The situation could be big or small.

It was uncertain what caused the accident, so Director Qian dared not conceal the matter.

He decisively called the police to investigate the cause of the incident.

He also ordered that those showing symptoms be taken to the nearest hospital for treatment, minimizing the risk as much as possible.

He knew that if he concealed the information and it became negative news, it would affect the entire film.

The movie was about to wrap up, and he couldn’t gamble with this matter.

Bei Bei followed Qiao Xi, who was physically fine.

Qiao Xi vomited everything she had consumed, and when there was nothing left to vomit, she could only bring up clear water, leaving her face pale.

Bei Bei felt devastated seeing her like this.

Bei Bei stayed close to Qiao Xi, fearing she would faint and never wake up, and kept reassuringly talking beside her.

Qiao Xi felt dizzy from her incessant muttering and said weakly, "Bei Bei... stop talking."

"Sob..."

Tears almost fell from Bei Bei’s eyes as she sniffed.

Holding Qiao Xi’s hand, her voice trembling, Bei Bei said, "Sister Xi, please don’t pass out. Do you want some water?"

"... Yes."

Qiao Xi felt very thirsty.

But as soon as she drank the water, she vomited it out again.

Dehydrated, Qiao Xi leaned in Bei Bei’s embrace, lacking the strength to speak further.

...

Despite strict orders not to leak any information about the production, news of an accident on the set of "Snowfield Ballet" still made it online.

Before the police investigation results were announced, rumors circulated that someone had poisoned the "Snowball" crew, causing some actors to be hospitalized with photos of Qiao Xi collapsing and being admitted to the hospital also surfacing.

Someone had profited by leaking information about the production.

When this news broke out, the hashtag #QiaoXiHospitalizedDueToPoisoning trended because it was promoted.

Netizens and fans boiled over with various speculations swirling around.

Could someone really dare to poison a production?

Was it done by a hater?

What deep hatred could have provoked this?

Or were production sets no longer safe?

Who would dare make films now?

It wasn’t the famous actors who stirred up trouble but rather the unknown actors and extras who were not successful.

With no response from Qiao Xi yet, her fans were anxious about her condition, continuously tagging Director Qian for the truth.

Some netizens speculated whether this was just a publicity stunt by "Snowball," perhaps aiming to create buzz for their yet-to-wrap film.

Upon seeing such sarcastic comments, Qiao Xi’s fans, who weren’t easily swayed, immediately retaliated.

Publicity stunt?

No one would risk their safety for publicity!

And Qiao Xi doesn’t need to resort to such tactics!

As the situation online seemed to increasingly move in an unpredictable direction, Director Qian stepped forward to calm the rumors, asking everyone to wait for the police announcement.

Meanwhile, Shen Dang was in a meeting, unaware of the online news.

The concerned citizen, Tang Honghe, realizing the gravity of the situation, immediately called Shen Dang.

The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted a senior manager’s report.

Unsure whether to continue, the manager paused.

Seeing it was Tang Honghe’s call, Shen Dang didn’t hesitate to hang up: "Continue."

Listening to their boss’s cold voice, the manager shivered, ready to proceed, but the phone rang again.

The manager turned to look at Shen Dang.

Oh no, the boss seemed upset!

Since the company started preparing to acquire the Chu Group, everyone had been on edge.

Anxiety filled the meeting room.

Shen Dang signaled with his hand to pause the meeting and answered with tightly pressed lips, "This better be important."

Tang Honghe, not minding the previous hang-up, got straight to the point: "Brother Dang, your sister-in-law was hospitalized; isn’t that important?"

Shen Dang’s eyes narrowed into a sinister frown: "What happened?"

Tang Honghe said carefully, "There are many rumors, one being that your sister-in-law was poisoned and hospitalized. I don’t know the details."

Shen Dang responded firmly, "Find out which hospital Xixi is in and reply to me immediately."

After hanging up, Shen Dang commanded, "Assistant Gao, you take over the meeting."

Assistant Gao, understanding his boss’s urgency, took on the task: "... Yes!"

Assistant Gao knew how important the boss’s wife was to him.

He could only take on the responsibility.

Go ahead boss, take flight!

Tang Honghe quickly found the hospital where Qiao Xi was and reported to Shen Dang, "Your sister-in-law is currently in a hospital in a small town in Guizhou."

But he couldn’t find out her current condition.

The police had not yet released their findings, and Director Qian had sealed all information regarding the hospital.

Everyone was unaware of how the hospitalized individuals were doing.

"Brother Dang, are you going over?"

"Mhm."

As online rumors continued unabated, at that moment, the Guizhou police released their investigation results.

[Guizhou police report today (October 15): Regarding the hospitalization of actors from "Snowfield Ballet" due to an accident, police actively cooperated with relevant departments for the investigation.

After examination and evidence gathering, the accident occurred because the logistics staff of "Snowfield Ballet" mistook poisonous mushrooms on the mountain for edible ones, resulting in the accident and no human fault was involved.

After treatment, the actors involved are now out of danger.]

Although the villagers had checked for any poisonous mushrooms, the elderly’s failing eyesight had still allowed unsafe mushrooms to mix in.

The police announcement dispelled many of the conspiracy theories online, but netizens were dumbfounded by the absurdity of the situation.

This kind of accident should have been avoidable.

Yet, due to human error, such an incident had occurred—what if those who consumed the poisonous mushrooms had faced life-threatening dangers?

Didn’t the production team owe everyone an explanation?

[My gosh! How absurd, the logistics staff were so ignorant to make such a mistake! This is criminal!]

[The absurd has opened the door to the even more absurd, reaching peak absurdity!]

[So, how are the people who ate the poisonous mushrooms doing now? Isn’t the director going to say anything?]

[Are you blind upstairs? Didn’t you see the police say they are out of danger?]

[Let’s hope such accidents don’t happen again!]

[Fry the logistics staff, their irresponsibility is too much!]

[I can’t believe such accidents can happen in a production crew, feeling sorry for my wife.]

[Feeling sorry for these actors.]

[Wake up, dude, you earn a few thousand a month and feel sorry for someone earning millions annually?]

[??? You upstairs have no heart!]

[I think the director also bears a great deal of responsibility.]

As soon as Director Qian found out who had leaked the crew’s information, he visited Qiao Xi’s hospital room: "How are you doing, Xixi?"
