Chapter 8: Unexpected

  "Ah!"

  Suddenly and without warning, Tang Xiaosheng let out a loud cry of pain.

  Then, his legs went soft and he fell onto the lawn, his hands tightly covering the joint of his left knee, his eyebrows furrowed in pain, a look of extreme agony on his face.

  Tang Xiaosheng deliberately fell down, and the pain was also fake. He wanted to use a trick to divert Little Dragon Girl's attention, so that she wouldn't have time to suspect his identity. Although Little Dragon Girl was somewhat cold in temperament, after all, people's hearts are not made of iron.

  As expected, after seeing Tang Xiao Sheng fall down and struggle in pain, Long Er immediately went up to him and asked with concern: "Xiao Sheng, what's wrong?"

  Tang Xiaosheng clenched his teeth, his face flushed red, and he brought out all the acting skills he had honed from years of filming, putting on a miserable expression, then pointed to the kneecap of his left leg.

  Xiao Long Nu carefully rolled up his left pant leg and found that there was indeed obvious bruising and swelling at the joint of his left knee. She couldn't help but whisper to herself, "It's all my fault, I'm sorry."

  When she saw Tang Xiao Sheng's injured left leg, Little Dragon Girl began to blame herself constantly, mistakenly thinking that the injury was caused by her palm strike just now.

  Actually, Tang Xiaosheng's left leg injury was from three months ago when he fell while filming a wire action scene and has yet to recover.

  However, he had no intention of telling the truth to Little Dragon Girl. The more guilty Little Dragon Girl felt, the more advantageous it was for him. Because once she started feeling guilty, she would increase her concern for Tang Xiaosheng. When guilt was replaced by concern, suspicion would also disappear.

  To make his suffering look more realistic, Tang Xiaosheng quietly moved his right hand behind him and pinched his buttocks several times!

  "Ah!"

  Tang Xiaosheng let out another pained groan, and beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.

  "Does it hurt a lot?" Little Dragon Girl asked with some concern.

  Guo Xiang, who was standing beside him, didn't notice that Tang Xiaosheng was acting and hastily said: "Big brother, what's wrong with you? Do you want to go to the hospital?" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that they were already in the hospital, so she changed her words to: "Do you want me to go find a doctor?"

  If the doctor comes, won't it be exposed?

  Tang Xiaosheng hastily said: "No need, Xiang Er, I'll be fine after a rest!"

  Unexpectedly, Guo Xiang said: "Big brother, you look like you're seriously injured. I'll go call the doctor right away, just hold on a bit longer."

  "Never mind..."

  Before he could finish speaking, Guo Xiang had already gotten up and hastily left, running towards the outpatient building without looking back.

  The little dragon girl gently touched Tang Xiaosheng's swollen left knee with her hand and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

  Tang Xiaosheng continued to exert his acting skills, clenching his fists tightly, tensing up his face, staring wide-eyed, and the veins on his neck bulged out. Then, with great effort, he shook his head and said, "It doesn't hurt."

  "It's all my fault."

  Seeing Tang Xiaosheng in such pain, Little Dragon Girl couldn't help but sob softly. Her shiny eyes were already moist, and the crystal-like tears rolled out from the corners of her eyes, falling onto the white veil.

  Tang Xiaosheng didn't expect her to cry so suddenly, and hurriedly said: "Long'er, don't worry, I'm fine."

  The little dragon girl didn't say a word, but her tears couldn't be stopped. Before long, the white veil on her face was soaked with tears. With a soft rustling sound, the veil suddenly slipped off, revealing a flawless and peerless face.

  Although Tang Xiaosheng was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the appearance of Little Dragon Girl.

  Indescribably beautiful cheeks, emitting an icy aura, elegant and refined, pure and dust-free; cherry-like thin lips, presenting a nearly transparent cherry red, delicate and lustrous, as if one glance could make people drunk; skin like ice and snow, like fresh milk curd, crystal clear and translucent, making people unable to bear looking at it again.

  Despite this, Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but keep staring, perhaps it was the most beautiful face he had ever seen in his life.

  The only thing lacking was the tears welling up in her eyes.

  Seeing the beauty in front of him with tears in her eyes, Tang Xiaosheng couldn't help but soften a bit, and slowly admitted: "Long'er, actually my leg was injured before, it has nothing to do with you."

  Little Dragon Maiden seemed skeptical and thought Tang Xiaosheng was just comforting her.

  Tang Xiaosheng continued to explain: "I'm saying it's true, my leg was injured while filming."

  "Shooting a movie?" Little Dragon Girl seemed to recall something and asked, "When was the movie?"

  "Three months ago."

  Xiaolongnv's expression changed slightly: "Is it because of 'The Return of the Condor Hero'?"

  Tang Xiaosheng suddenly felt a chill in his heart and looked stunned, asking inexplicably: "How did you know?"

  Little Dragon Girl asked again: "Were you swinging on a wire in the air when it suddenly broke and you fell from mid-air?"

  Tang Xiaosheng nodded: "Not bad."

  "It's all my fault." Little Dragon Girl said with a full of guilt and self-blame, the tears that had just stopped flowing again welled up in her eyes.

  Tang Xiaosheng saw her crying hard, so he leaned over and gently wiped away the tears on her face, comforting her: "Long'er, I've said it before, my leg injury has nothing to do with you."

  "No, your leg injury has something to do with me."

  "My leg was injured when I fell off the trapeze because the steel wire suddenly broke. What does it have to do with you?"

  "Over here," said Little Dragon Girl with a slight movement of her eyebrows, "the steel wire of the gallows was cut by me."

  What?

  Tang Xiaosheng was momentarily stunned.

  It wasn't until a while later that he came back to himself and asked in a low voice, "Long'er, what did you mean when you said the steel wire was broken by you?"

  Xiaolongnv fell silent for a moment, recalling what had happened three months ago.

  Since crossing over, she has been trying every means to find out Yang Guo's whereabouts, unfortunately, there is no news so far.

  Three months ago, she learned from the media that the TV series "The Legend of the Condor Hero" was being remade and saw the promotional photos of the crew. In the photo, Xiaolongnv found that the actor who played Yang Guo had a few similarities with Yang Guo, so she suspected that the actor might have been possessed by Yang Guo's soul.

  To determine the actor's identity, Little Dragon Maiden secretly goes to the filming location and wants to test whether this actor has martial arts skills. If he does, it is likely Yang Guo; if not, then naturally it is not Yang Guo.

  On the day when Little Dragon Girl arrived at the filming location, they were shooting a scene of Yang Guo demonstrating his lightness skills. The actor playing Yang Guo was not on set and instead had Tang Xiaosheng, the martial arts stunt double, stand in for him.

  When Tang Xiao Sheng was dressed as Yang Guo, suspended in mid-air to film a scene, Little Dragon Maiden suddenly secretly shot a jade bee needle, cutting the steel wire. She did this just to see if the actor playing Yang Guo had any martial arts skills. If he did, then after the wire broke, during the fall, he would definitely use his lightness skill to avoid injury.

  As a result, Tang Xiaosheng tragically fell directly from mid-air and his left leg was broken on the spot.

  After the accident, Xiaolongnv knew she had hurt a stunt double and wanted to apologize to Tang Xiaosheng.

  Unfortunately, Tang Xiaosheng was just a martial arts stunt double and didn't have much fame. After inquiring multiple times, she still couldn't find Tang Xiaosheng, so the matter was dropped.

  After listening to Little Dragon Girl's account, Tang Xiao Sheng was extremely shocked in his heart. He had always felt that this time Wei Ya's fall injury was a bit strange, but he never thought it would be caused by Little Dragon Girl herself.

  "It's all my fault, I..."

  "Long'er," Tang Xiaosheng interrupted her, then gently took her hand and comforted her, "Don't blame yourself, I'm not blaming you. You happened to cut off the steel wire of my parachute, this is fate. Besides, my leg isn't seriously injured."

  It's already happened, and blaming her won't make a difference. Besides, Little Dragon Maiden did this only to find Yang Guo, without any malicious intent.

  "I really didn't know that after falling from a height of three meters, I would actually break my leg." Little Dragon Girl said in a low and choked voice.

  Tang Xiaosheng gently wiped away her tears: "Mm, I know."

  After she calmed down a bit, he asked with some curiosity: "Long'er, today Huang Xiaoming was also filming a scene where he fell from 3 meters high while doing a stunt, this matter..."

  "The little dragon girl interrupted: 'I didn't do this thing.'"

  Tang Xiaosheng nodded: "It's better if it isn't."

  "Big brother, I've found the doctor."

  At this moment, Guo Xiang suddenly heard a call from afar, and soon saw her bringing a doctor in his fifties to hurry over.
