Accident

"Okay, everyone move faster. We need to start in 10 minutes."

"Logistic team over there, check again okay!"

The pressure was real. On top of the dangerous scene done directly by both top actresses, their husbands which were top two main investors were also around.

One of the youngest staff was strapping a safety line on Ning Xi body since she would take the rooftop scene which required a lot of running, and jumping across building. It was a piece of cake for her and personally, she was not happy with the safety strap. However, she still wore it for the sake of Lu Ting Xiao peace of mind. If she could choose for herself, she would definitely running freely.

Tang Ning was also wearing a protection clothes which was thicker to protect her body against bump or injury. She was actually feeling more nervous since only her and Ning Xi knew about the baby inside her tummy. After the staff finished assisting her putting on extra protective layer, Tang Ning was ready sitting on top of the motorbike, looking all savage and cool. Her calm face was contrasting against the bad-ass motorbike. Her light make up and tight pony tail hair made more impact as if she was a gang member leader.

While Tang Ning was on the ground, Ning Xi was already ready on the rooftop. It was amazing to see both actresses with similar black tight costumes and could emanate different vibes. Tang Ning was looking cool and calm, while Ning Xi playfulness but deadly vibe was clearly coming out from every cell inside her body.

"All staff clear away from the premises. We are starting soon. Tang Ning, are you ready?"

Tang Ning gave her thumbs up before readying herself and putting on her helmet.

"Okay, good. Ning Xi?"

Ning Xi also did the same and put her body readied in running position. The first scene would take their combined body shots and the closer up filming would be done separately.

"Ready, set go."

With the director order, Ning Xi started to run first. As she would be slower than Tang Ning's motorbike. She swiftly ran, rolled over and jumped across the building. When Ning Xi started running for five seconds, Tang Ning then started her motorbike and sped up until the designated place.

The shooting was taking less than a minute since it was for broader perspective. Closed up filming would be more important.

"Cut! Okay, good! Ning Xi, come back to the start point. We are going to start closed up scene. Tang Ning, you can rest first."

Ning Xi was running back towards her initial starting point while Tang Ning chose to train rather than rest. While the crew was busy shooting on Ning Xi, Tang Ning kept training on one corner, to speed up and maneuver all the difficult angle. She even practiced how to drift.

Once Tang Ning was satisfied, she returned her motorbike for final checking and watched Ning Xi act together with Mo Ting and Lu Ting Xiao. Not even for once, Lu Ting Xiao eyes went astray, he kept his gaze directed to Ning Xi every move.

"CEO Lu, why are you so tense?" Tang Ning was asking out of curiosity.

"Just to make sure she is careful enough." He replied shortly, he did not know that others might not know about Ning Xi went into vegetative state before.

"Ning, Xiao Xi had an accident long time before and went comatose for one year before she finally could come back into entertainment industry."

"Xiao Xi?" Tang Ning was surprised. Of all things she had expected to hear, Ning Xi comatose state was not inside her list.

"Tang Ning, standby." Director voice made her question remain unanswered. Xiao Xi had jogged slightly towards them. Drips of perspiration beaded her forehead and neck. Once Xiao Xi reached and Ting Xiao had checked she was indeed okay, then he relaxed and let go of his tense posture immediately. He passed her a bottle of cold water and pressed a soft towel on her perspired body.

"I am going over. Good job, Xiao Xi."

"Ning Jie, good luck!" Xiao Xi hand pressed slightly against hers. She was still worried over her condition. Tang Ning smiled back reassuringly.

Tang Ning was doing last briefing with the director, and three of them walked to get closer view. Not only Mo Ting who was getting tense now, but Ning Xi also which was easily noticeable by Lu Ting Xiao.

"Xiao Xi, what's wrong?"

"Nothing. I am just nervous for this scene." Right after Xiao Xi said that sentence, her eyes turned sharper.

"Something is wrong."

"What do you mean?" Her statement immediately made Mo Ting nervous

"Ning Jie would never ride it like that. She is stable, even though it is her first time. I saw her practiced a few times."

The crew who initially happy with the filming progress was suddenly thrown into panic.

The motorbike was driven past the stopping point. Tang Ning looked like losing control over the bike. In a glance, Ning Xi knew the brake was not working which was causing the whole chaos in front of him.

She dreaded the moment and she regretted not strong willed enough to stop Ning Jie from taking the dangerous scene.

"CEO Mo, we need to stop the bike."

"There was a block of plastic barrel over there. We can ask Ning to hit that area and jump over."

"We can't. It is too dangerous."

"She is tough." Mo Ting smiled, reassuring Ning Xi.

"No, you don't understand. She is pregnant."

"What?" Mo Ting confidence quickly evaporated in a second. Even Lu Ting Xiao was getting tense just listening to Ning Xi statement.

"I am gonna help her." Xiao Xi was running towards another motorbike even before Lu Ting Xiao managed to stop her.

Xiao Xi grabbed the bike from the other staff and accelerated until she was by Tang Ning side.

"Ning Jie, follow me and jump when I ask you to jump!"

Tang Ning nodded. She could hear Ning Xi screaming on top of the gushing wind. Quickly, Ning Xi took the lead and looking for the initial area with a lot of mattress. It was initially prepared for Tang Ning to do her filming part when she was supposed to roll over to that side after she drifted while slowing down.

Ning Xi drove fast towards the mattress area and jumped towards Tang Ning. Midway in air, she pulled Tang Ning body to be on top of her and took most of the impact out when they fell towards mattress.

Ning Xi groaned in pain. She could tell that her body would feel sore all over by the next morning. Meanwhile, Tang Ning was sprawled on top of her, not moving an inch.

"Ning Jie." Ning Xi was now awake from her shock and started to call Tang Ning name. Meanwhile from the corner, she could see both Lu Ting Xiao and Mo Ting were running with Usain Bolt speed towards both of them.

"Xiao Xi"

"Ning!"

Mo Ting quickly took the fainted Tang Ning from Ning Xi and shouted to his driver to bring both of them to hospital.

Meanwhile, Lu Ting Xiao helped Ning Xi to stand up. But when he heard Ning Xi was groaning, his reaction was not better than Mo Ting. He screamed at Lu Che to bring the car and soon both black Maybach left filming location, leaving the crew deserted and panicking over the two actresses accident.

Without any instruction, both Producer and Director, who were responsible for both filming followed suit to hospital and dispersed their crew. The filming would be put on hold till further notice.
