Sure enough, the look on Nan Chen's face turned slightly gloomy after he heard that.

“Are you defending him?” he asked coldly.

Ning Ran began to panic. “O-Of course not! I told you, Huang Zichao and I have no interactions outside of work! I just think a famous and successful actor like him has no need to kill anyone. I don't pose a threat to him at all, so he shouldn't have any reason to do that.”

Of course, Nan Chen understood what Ning Ran was trying to say. He just didn't feel too happy about things for now.

Fearing that Nan Chen would get mad at her, Ning Ran had no choice but to pretend she suspected him as well.

“I understand that everyone in the production team is technically a suspect until we have concrete evidence to prove their innocence, and Huang Zichao is no exception. I was just blurting out what came to mind, that's all. I'm sorry.”

Nan Chen felt slightly better after hearing that. Qiao Zhan arched an eyebrow in amusement when he noticed the changes in Nan Chen's expression.

Oh? It seems even Sir Chen is susceptible to emotions like jealousy!

The filming had already stopped by the time they arrived on set, and Qiao Zhan's men had the perimeter surrounded. No one was allowed to get in or out of there.

All the members of the production team were gossiping among themselves. They saw Nan Chen taking Ning Ran away by force, but they didn't know what happened after.

Nan Chen shot Qiao Zhan a glance and motioned at him to explain the situation and calm those people down.

“Please stay calm, everyone. Sir Chen was executing a safety drill of some sort because he was worried about Madam's safety. Make sure to keep a tight lid on what happened today!” Qiao Zhan announced.

The crowd grew even more confused when they heard that. Huh? That was a safety drill? It sure didn't look like one!

“What do we do now?” asked the director.

“You'll all take the rest of the day off and continue filming tomorrow. Sir Chen would like to greet the staff in person. Please have them come to shake hands with him,” Qiao Zhan replied.

“Of course, whatever Sir Chen says!” The director then turned around and told the production team, “Listen up, people! Sir Chen wants to greet all of you in person, so get in line and give him a warm welcome!”
