Chapter 17 Secrets in the Circle

Wanwan babbled while holding the baby bottle, and looked at Xia Zhihuai strangely, wondering why he was suddenly so depressed.

But when the adults talk, the children try not to intervene, as what they say seems to be very important.

"Mr. Xia, you should know that ghosts do not exist in this world."

Xia Zhihuai's lips were lined deeply, but he was not angry. He stated in a calm tone: "I'm just saying what I saw. If you don't believe me, there's nothing you can do. It may be that I've been too tired from work these days. Dazzled."

The policeman was a little uncomfortable by his attitude, but Xia Zhihuai did not have much to do with Chen Wan's affairs, they were just making routine inquiries.

"Then do you know about Chen Wan's situation?"

"Friendship or something?"

"Or news about her agency?"

Xia Zhihuai was puzzled and said, "Didn't you investigate her situation before you came?"

"I don't know Chen Wan very well. I don't know if she has any friends. Apart from filming with each other, she and I basically don't meet each other."

"She is also very withdrawn. She seldom interacts with other people on the set. Basically, she spends most of her time in a relatively quiet place on the set, or in the common room. Occasionally Xiao Ting calls her to talk in her personal dressing room. , I really don’t know the rest.”

Another policeman said: "Mr. Xia, don't get excited. We are just asking routinely. If you know it, answer it. If you don't know it, you can answer it truthfully. We are not looking for trouble."

Xia Zhihuai took a deep breath and calmed down the restlessness in his heart: "I'm sorry, what happened to Chen Wan frightened me a little, so please keep asking."

"Mr. Xia, do you know that there is a feud between Xiao Ting and Chen Wan?"

This question was very direct, Xia Zhihuai was silent for a while with downcast eyes, then nodded: "I know."

"Can you elaborate?"

Xia Zhihuai was thinking, it was all the secrets of the circle, should he tell them all.

But he quickly made a decision.

"Chen Wan was forced to be Xiao Ting's substitute."

"She offended investors in the industry when she just graduated, and then she had nothing to film."

"Chen Wan finally had to bow his head and admit his mistake, but the other party didn't take it lightly and asked her to sign an agreement as a stuntman to serve as Xiao Ting's stand-in for three years, after which they would be able to settle the matter."

"This is the third year. I'm not very clear about the specific content of the agreement. These are just a little bit of news that her former manager revealed while drinking."

"As far as I know, that agreement is going to expire in a few months."

The two policemen didn't expect that there was such an agreement with Chen Wan. It seems that her "accidental death" might have something else behind it.

"Xiao Ting, do you understand?"

Xia Zhihuai tugged at Wanwan's clothes, sighed and said, "I've worked with you twice, so I understand a little bit."

"Can you tell me?"

Xia Zhihuai raised his eyes and glanced at the two of them: "Xiao Ting has a proud personality, and her relationship with other actors is relatively mediocre. She doesn't have any special friends in the crew, so she basically shoots when she shows up on the set. Be on time. Get off work after filming."

"She has a boyfriend, Fu Ming, the vice president of Tianming, and she will leave the film crew after get off work every day."

"Chen Wan also had nothing to film because he offended Fu Ming."

……

The police knew about Xiao Ting's information to some extent, but they also heard the same answer from Xia Zhihuai, so they felt confident.

The two policemen asked several other questions, and Xia Zhihuai told them all truthfully.

After Wanwan Ton Ton finished drinking the milk, she suddenly hiccupped.

The eyes of several people immediately focused on her, Wanwan's small face puffed up in embarrassment, she covered her mouth with a small hand, and milkyly argued, "It's not me~"

Xia Zhihuai patted her forehead amusedly: "It's not who you are, the hiccup is so loud."

Wanwan pouted unconvinced, but did not refute.

Well, it was indeed her hiccups.

But her brother was too bad. The sound of her milk burps was obviously not very loud, but they adults were making too much fuss. …

The originally serious atmosphere eased a lot, the policeman at the side looked at Wanwan who was trying to cover up, and couldn't help but pat her small head.

"Mr. Xia, thank you very much for cooperating with our investigation."

Xia Zhihuai smiled politely, and after sending him out the door, he walked back to the living room to pick up Wanwan, hugged her and fell on the sofa.

"Brother, this is the first time that he has cooperated with the police."

Wanwan consoled her intimately, "Brother, you can cooperate a few more times in the future."

"It's not necessary, it's better not to try."

Xia Zhihuai sighed softly, thinking of Chen Wan, he felt very sorry.

That girl actually worked very hard, but her life was not very good.

Wanwan sat on Xia Zhihuai's stomach, rubbed her swollen belly, turned her head and smiled, "Brother, what are we having for dinner?"

Xia Zhihuai turned his head and looked at the kitchen, he couldn't cook, let alone Wanwan.

"Let's order takeout."

Xia Zhihuai fished out his phone, and two people, one big and one small, huddled together, staring at the takeaway page on the phone, sucking their saliva together.

"I want to eat braised beef brisket..."

Xia Zhihuai clicked on the picture with his fingers, and closed the page sadly: "Oh, forget it, I need to lose weight."

Wanwan squeezed into his arms, tapped with her little finger, added the meat to the shopping basket, and said as a matter of course: "My brother can't eat it, but Wanwan can help you eat it, so it won't be wasted."

Xia Zhihuai pinched her cheeks that were soft like dough, and said angrily, "Do you think what you're talking about is human?"

"Isn't it?" Wanwan scratched the back of her head and murmured suspiciously, "Wanwan is clearly a human cub now?"

Although the soul is Xiaotaoxian.

When Xia Zhihuai placed the order, he still ordered braised beef brisket and several other meat dishes.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, the crew won't be able to start work for a while. It's been a long time since I ate so much. I need to comfort myself today."

Wanwan lay prone on the sofa, resting her chin with her small hands, watching Xia Zhihuai doing mental construction, and blinked inexplicably.

I always feel that her brother's mind is weird.

Maybe something serious?

……

After ordering takeaway, Xia Zhihuai suddenly sat up straight and thought of a very serious question.

"Wanwan, how do you know ghosts so well?"

"Who is the master you mentioned earlier?"

Wanwan rubbed her fingers, tilted her head in confusion, and said, "Master is just master, ghosts... have always been there."

Xia Zhihuai found it incredible.

Wanwan was able to see those fantasy things since she was a child, did anyone know about this before?
Xia Zhihuai frowned, thought for two seconds, and asked, "Do your parents know?"

Wanwan's eyes widened and she was stunned: "Wanwan doesn't have parents."

Xia Zhihuai was silent for a moment, then sighed softly.

"Sorry, I said something wrong." Xia Zhihuai touched Wanwan's small head, "It's okay, there are no parents, you still have a brother."

Wanwan nodded vigorously, and said with a beaming smile, "I know, so I was bullied, so I came to find my brother."

"Brother must help me clean up the bad guys!"

Thinking of those in the Qi family, Xia Zhihuai's eyes darkened, and he rubbed his back teeth, so he didn't swear.
