Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore

Chapter 318: I’m Not Just Stealing the Second Male Lead — I’m Taking the Project Too!

”Whatʼs going on? Whatʼs going on?”

Xiao Chen squeezed through the crowd, looking at the cordoned-off entrance to the hotel lobby, curiously standing on tiptoe to peer inside.

He saw a somewhat familiar-looking male actor with his head bowed low, hair disheveled, a dark stubble on his face, being led out in a sorry state, handcuffed by the police.

If Xiao He were here, he might have even noticed that the officer leading the arrest was none other than Officer Zhang, with whom he had dealt many times before.

”Tsk tsk, heʼs in for big trouble.”

”This guy really is something, bringing people to the production teamʼs hotel, too brazen...”

While observing the situation over there, Xiao Chen also pricked up his ears to listen to the discussions of the people around him. Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted a familiar face from the production crew and immediately raised his voice to call out.

That acquaintance also looked over at the sound, saying with pleasant surprise, ”Xiao Chen, youʼre here munching on melon seeds too?”

”Yeah, whatʼs the situation right now?”

Xiao Chen immediately took advantage of the angle to slip through the crowd and reach his acquaintanceʼs side, ”Why was Wang Shaoqi arrested? And those other women?”
”Ahem, this matter is really absurd—”

The acquaintance leaned in close to Xiao Chenʼs ear, gossiping as he explained more details: ”Itʼs said the police originally came to arrest Wang Shaoqi, but when they caught him, they found him engaging in group... that sort of thing, so the police conveniently rounded up everyone here.”

Xiao Chen was dumbfounded: ”Huh? That intense? Wait, didnʼt their production team just start filming not long ago? This Wang Shaoqi dared to bring people to the hotel?”

And it was just him, one guy, with all those women following behind!

Could he handle that?!

”Mainly, that position of his was snatched from someone else, and thereʼs been some unpleasantness within the crew, so this idiot wanted to curry favor with the showʼs director and producer to secure his position.”

The acquaintance winked suggestively: ”Turns out the director didnʼt take the bait last night, but the producer fell for it and is now being taken away along with them.”

Xiao Chen: ...

”Honestly, they have a perfectly good drama to film, but they just have to court death.” Xiao Chenʼs acquaintance said while shaking his head, ”Talent is the real capital, Xiao Chen. Youʼre lucky you met Xiao He, otherwise... tsk tsk.”

He shook his head again, thinking of some of the gossip he sometimes heard within the industry, feeling quite a mix of emotions.

Group... indecent activities were already the most trivial piece of gossip heʼd heard in the circle.

Some things in reality, if spoken aloud, would shatter oneʼs worldview.

Xiao Chen also felt a similar wave of mixed emotions.

”Then their production team will definitely have to shut down, right?”

”Absolutely. The male supporting actor for the whole crew has been taken away, the entire production team has to undergo inspection, and itʼs already blown up online. Theyʼre probably in huge trouble!”

”Thatʼs great then.”

Xiao Chen instinctively felt happy.

With the male supporting role now vacant, wouldnʼt his Xiao Ge have a chance?

”Hmm?”

”Uh, I mean, itʼs truly a satisfying thing when bad people are caught and brought to justice.”

Realizing his slip of the tongue, Xiao Chen cleared his throat lightly, ”My Xiao Ge is about to head to the set, I should get going too. See you later!”

”Oh right, that reminds me, I should go prepare for my work too. Alright, bye, see you later!”

The two went their separate ways, but the crowd gathered to watch still hadnʼt dispersed. Even though the people had already been taken away in police cars, the discussions among everyone showed no sign of stopping...

-

Inside the van, Xiao Chen was still excitedly recounting what heʼd seen and heard that morning, while Xiao He was looking down at his phone, his gaze suddenly pausing.

”That Wang Shaoqi really is... heʼs already in the crew and still canʼt behave, serves him right to be caught...”

Before Xiao Chen could finish his sentence, Xiao He reminded him, ”You should take a look online first. The internet is where the real excitement is!”

”Huh? Let me see—” Xiao Chen pulled out his phone to check, then gasped sharply: ”I thought what happened this morning was already outrageous enough! But now—”
