Mu Jingzhe really detested this kind of lousy tricks. Taking revenge in the name of acting was common when it came to slapping scenes, drowning scenes, and kneeling scenes.
In her previous life, Mu Jingzhe had seen too many such tricks. She hadn’t expected to see one again in this life, much less from a child as small as Tian Xiaoxiao.
Thus, Mu Jingzhe hadn’t belittled Tian Xiaoxiao at all. How could someone who could do such a thing be a normal child? Since she’d dared to do it, she would retaliate.
“Tian Xiaoxiao, you’re wasting everyone’s time, money, and energy for your own selfish desires. Do you take us for fools and think we can’t do anything to you?”
Mu Jingzhe’s words caused everyone’s expression to change. Tian Xiaoxiao and her mother’s expressions changed drastically.
Everyone was there to work. Tian Xiaoxiao’s actions had held up the filming progress and caused everyone to have a hard time. They had long formed their own opinions about this, and Mu Jingzhe’s words really struck a chord with them.
Tian Xiaoxiao and her mother knew that the tide had turned against them. Seeing everyone’s expression, they panicked. “What kind of nonsense are you talking about? Don’t slander Xiaoxiao!”
“I didn’t do that!” Tian Xiaoxiao also shouted.
“Everyone knows whether I’m talking nonsense or not. Everyone is working together to film a good movie. You’re the only ones dragging us down. What do you think the production team is? Is this a place for you to play house?”
“Previously, when you deliberately said your face hurt, I tolerated it. I thought that your skin really was sensitive and thought of ways to deal with it. But now, look at what you’ve done! It’s obvious you did that on purpose!
“Tian Xiaoxiao, were you very pleased with yourself when you sent me away? Look at how old you are, yet your thoughts are so deep and vicious. Today, you sent me away because you didn’t like Little Bei. You took advantage of the filming process to slap her harder and more times than was necessary. Are you going to use props to kill people in the future?”
Mother Tian and Tian Xiaoxiao got anxious. “How can you talk about killing people? Who’s killing people?”
Seeing everyone’s accusing gazes, Tian Xiaoxiao shouted, “I was filming! I was just filming! I didn’t kill anyone!”
Because of her cute looks and young age, she had always been liked by everyone in the production team since she had started acting at two.
Tian Xiaoxiao knew how to make people like her. Although her reputation had deteriorated as she grew older, she was still good at feigning obedience in front of others. She was also sweet-tongued and had honed her ability to play a double game when speaking to different people.
As a result, even though everyone knew what she had done, because she was sensible and knew how to speak, everyone greeted her with smiles when they were in front of her.
Adults would always be more tolerant of children.
Tian Xiaoxiao had always received praise and kind gazes and had never been treated in such a manner in her entire life. She felt wronged, so she finally panicked.
Mu Jingzhe looked at Tian Xiaoxiao coldly. “Facts speak louder than words. Remember what I said today. If you dare to tamper with the filming process again, I don’t care if you’re filming or not. I’ll just hit you back.
“If I do hit you back, it won’t be just a fall. I can even knock out all your teeth with one punch. If you’re not afraid, you can try me.”
Fear flashed across Tian Xiaoxiao’s face. Even though it was Mu Jingzhe’s first day on set, she had already helped carry things on set. Everyone knew that Mu Jingzhe was strong, so Tian Xiaoxiao knew that she wasn’t kidding when she said she could knock out all her teeth.
Mother Tian had considered that matter over and hadn’t expected Mu Jingzhe to bring it up again. Looking at everyone’s expressions, she quickly tried to salvage the situation. “Why are you bringing up this matter? It’s your child who spiked our food with laxatives…”

Mu Jingzhe cut her off. “If you want to accuse us of drugging you with laxatives, just show us the evidence. If you have evidence, you can report it to the police or do whatever you want.
“However, if you have no evidence, we won’t accept any of this. From now on, you will stop blaming us. This concerns the reputation of my children’s innocence. If you continue to accuse us, I won’t hold back.”
“What are you going to do to us? You people did it. Who else but your two kids—”
“If you want to shoot your mouth off without any evidence, then I can do it too. If you say that we harmed you, then I’ll say that you’re not acclimatized or you’ve given yourself laxatives to frame us. Rather than clamoring here, you might as well go see a doctor or call the police.”
Mother Tian was so angry that she fell backward. “Why would we drug ourselves to frame you?”
“How would I know? Based on the way you guys acted earlier, what aren’t you capable of doing?”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that this mother-and-daughter duo was truly capable of doing something like this. As they faced everyone’s doubtful gazes, Tian Xiaoxiao and her mother’s faces turned purple. They glared at Mu Jingzhe as if they wanted to eat her up.
Mu Jingzhe lifted her chin and turned the situation around with a firm attitude. However, when Mu Jingzhe pulled Little Bei and Shao Nan back to their room, her face instantly sank.
“What exactly happened? Tell me honestly.”
Shao Nan and Little Bei froze immediately. However, they didn’t dare hide anything and came clean with the truth.
For example, Little Bei’s fall had been only half real. The other half had been fake. The cuts on her knees and elbows were a result of her deliberately falling somewhere where there was gravel.
Shao Nan admitted that he was the one who had drugged the mother-and-daughter duo with laxatives.
Mu Jingzhe closed her eyes. “I knew it.”
Shao Nan’s laxative method had inevitably made Mu Jingzhe think of the version of Shao Nan she had read about in the book. In order to take revenge, he had concocted a colorless, odorless poison. Although the results had been vastly different, there was a trace of similarity. Mu Jingzhe had worked hard for a long time and had even helped them learn the law because she wanted them to know the consequences of doing something illegal.
Although Shao Nan seemed to have changed a lot, in a situation like this, Mu Jingzhe could still feel that his nature hadn’t changed. The choices Shao Nan made hadn’t changed.
Her face darkened as she looked at Shao Nan. “Shao Nan, have you forgotten the law book you read? Do you know that what you did was illegal?”
Earlier, Shao Nan had been happy that Mu Jingzhe had finally avenged Little Bei. Now, when he heard this question, he only felt uneasy. “I still remember, Mom. That’s why I only drugged them with a small dose of laxatives. They’ll be fine. I just wanted to punish them a little, that’s all…”
“What if something happened to them after taking the laxatives?” Mu Jingzhe interrupted him. “You’re lucky this time. They’re in good health, so things didn’t go wrong. But what if something irreversible had happened because of the laxatives you gave them? Don’t think that diarrhea is a small matter. One can get dehydrated and die from diarrhea.”
Shao Nan shook his head. “That won’t happen. I was very careful with the dosage…”
“Then what if they’re sensitive to laxatives and their diarrhea gets out of control? Or what if they have latent health conditions?” Mu Jingzhe interrupted Shao Nan again and bent over to press Shao Nan’s shoulder.
“Shao Nan, don’t think that everything will definitely work out as you’ve planned it. That’s not up to you. Have you heard of the saying ‘one ant hole may cause the collapse of a thousand-li dyke’? Any small mistake has the potential to cause a great disaster.
“So, Shao Nan, don’t think that a little bit of laxative is fine. Even a small dose of laxative can be fatal. If that happens, their blood will be on your hands. Do you believe that?”
For the first time, there was confusion in Shao Nan’s eyes. “Even a small dose of laxative can do that?”
