Healing Doctor

Chapter 542 Veteran Actor?

Looking up from the middle of the escalator, at about the 7th or 8th floor, there was a figure hanging on the handrail outside the building's perimeter fence, possibly falling at any moment.

Many people were watching and trying to dissuade him, but no one dared to step forward, probably because they were afraid that if they took a step forward, the person would become emotional and jump down.

suddenly!

Ji Xiang seemed to pause for a moment.

"Uh..." Director Fan was stunned for a moment. He was still wondering what had happened when he suddenly saw Ji Xiang tear off his white clothes. Buttons flew off, the white clothes fell to the ground, and he ran up the escalator like a cheetah.

"Let's go!" Director Fan waved his hand, leading the film crew to rush up behind Ji Xiang.

But Ji Xiang ran too fast. Director Fan tried his best but couldn't catch up with him. He could only watch as Ji Xiang ran higher and higher.

"Director, a patient is suicidal. What is Dr. Ji Xiang doing up there?" Director Fan's assistant's first instinct was that filming such scenes was inappropriate, so he stayed by Director Fan's side and tried to persuade him.

"Go take a look." Director Fan had been following him for several days. In the instant Ji Xiang was slightly taken aback and then tore off his white coat, he vaguely felt the same way he did when the hospitalized patient went out drinking.

It wasn't that Director Fan had any premonition; he was completely unfamiliar with everything in the hospital and knew that someone who jumped off a building in the hospital was most likely a patient. Not to mention broadcasting it, just recording it made him feel guilty.

but!

Director Fan trusted Ji Xiang's intuition.

The moment a button from my white shirt popped off and landed on my face, it felt like inspiration was knocking on my door.

Upon reaching the 6th floor, Director Fan was exhausted; the short period of high-speed running had drained him completely.

He wanted to catch his breath by leaning on his legs, but the next second Director Fan saw Ji Xiang flip over and leap, his feet on the edge of the railing with most of his feet dangling in the air, his arms braced against the railing, looking both like someone about to jump off a building and like a tourist looking down from a high place.

Because of the distance, Director Fan couldn't hear what Ji Xiang was saying; he could only see Ji Xiang turn his head, seemingly talking to the woman.

"Attention, team! Attention, team! Head to the seventh floor and find a suitable camera position!"

"Group Two, on the sixth floor, go to the spot opposite Dr. Ji Xiang."

Director Fan began making urgent arrangements.

In this emergency, Director Fan did not panic, but calmly made arrangements. Although somewhat bewildered, Director Fan actually believed deep down that Ji Xiang could persuade the woman to calm down.

Bizarre thoughts and incomprehensible reality clashed within him.

Ji Xiang said a couple of sentences, and the woman seemed somewhat angry. She glanced down and paused slightly.

Director Fan's heart skipped a beat, but then he saw the woman's hand gripping the railing tightly.

吁~

"It seems alright," Director Fan thought to himself.

but!

What did Ji Xiang and that woman say?!

Director Fan strained his ears to listen carefully, but the surrounding crowd was making a noisy commotion, and he couldn't hear Ji Xiang's conversation with the woman at all.

The next second, Ji Xiang pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, an ordinary red Da Yun brand, and then took out a lighter to light it.

Ji Xiang wanted to throw the cigarette to the woman, but he suddenly stopped when he was about to throw it.

The two said something, and Ji Xiang's expression was somewhat indifferent, with tears streaming down his face.

Director Fan never expected that he would actually see Ji Xiang cry!

Being able to cry on cue is a talent for actors, requiring countless hours of practice. Immersive practice combined with natural talent is what makes someone capable of it.

As for those young guys who make money based on traffic, they have no professionalism whatsoever. When they act out crying scenes, they usually use eye drops or apply mustard, which are self-harming methods that are extremely dedicated.

Director Fan didn't have time to complain or praise Ji Xiang. He watched Ji Xiang talk to the patient intently and used the walkie-talkie to adjust the positions of the two film crews.

Because Director Fan had already guessed what Ji Xiang wanted to do!

He must have wanted to grab the woman the moment he offered her the cigarette.

definitely is!

After adjusting the camera position and taking in everything, Director Fan's blood was boiling.

If I miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I'll be struck by lightning.

In addition, after chatting with Ji Xiang and hearing about his good luck, Director Fan knew that his luck had turned around!

While filming and adjusting camera positions, just as the group upstairs found their spots, Ji Xiang also moved. He held a cigarette in his hand, wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and moved half a step closer to the woman's position.

Then Ji Xiang stretched out his arm and barely managed to hand the cigarette to the woman a meter away.

Is this distance enough? Director Fan was somewhat puzzled.

Perhaps Ji Xiang possesses the art of bone shrinking, like in martial arts novels, where his arm can instantly grow three inches to grab a woman's hand?!

maybe.

But reason told Director Fan that this was simply impossible.

The woman pulled down her skirt, which was caught on the railing, and moved closer to Ji Xiang, reaching out to take the cigarette.

She was very wary, like a wounded she-wolf, giving Ji Xiang no chance whatsoever. Ji Xiang, in turn, didn't seem inclined to seize her, even showing some disdain. In the final few centimeters, he tossed the cigarette up into the air, letting it land in the woman's hand.

Director Fan's guess was wrong; things seemed to have exceeded his expectations and were developing in an uncontrollable direction.

Filming a patient with an unknown illness falling from a building?

Director Fan wasn't interested.

Damn it! Dr. Ji Xiang is so useless. Why can't his arms just grow longer and grab the woman by the shoulder to pull her back?!

Director Fan cursed Ji Xiang in his heart.

Dark clouds loomed over Ji Xiang's ancestral graves, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Ke Jixiang didn't make many movements; he used his arms to sit steadily on the railing.

The railing swayed slightly, and everyone could feel that the bottom of the railing was starting to loosen, and it didn't know when it would collapse completely.

At that time, Ji Xiang and the woman would fall directly from the sixth floor and be smashed to pieces.

What is he going to do!

Director Fan stared in astonishment at Ji Xiang, whose face was filled with sorrow and tears.

If Director Fan hadn't been following Ji Xiang around these past two days, he would have definitely thought something had happened to Ji Xiang's family or that he had broken up with his girlfriend, which led him to have suicidal thoughts.

However, the idea that someone can be perfectly fine one second and then suddenly feel so grief-stricken they want to die the next is simply not true.

He's acting.

His acting skills were so superb that even Director Fan, a big name in the entertainment industry, was astonished.

With acting skills like that and Ji Xiang's good looks, he'd definitely be a star in the entertainment industry. Within three years, he'd have won every award, including the Golden Horse Awards.

They could even dream of winning an Oscar.

Just as Director Fan was lost in thought, Ji Xiang pulled out another cigarette, hastily wiped away his tears and snot, leaving half a snot hanging on his face, lit the cigarette and took a deep drag.

Ji Xiang seemed to be confiding in the woman, and as they talked, the woman's expression began to turn serious.

She moved closer to Ji Xiang along the handrail.

Something has changed!

Director Fan stared in astonishment at all this, but he didn't know what Ji Xiang was talking about, which made the woman who was determined to die seem to be getting better.
