On the internet, different stories started circulating about the incident, it was rumored that Tian Liang was attacked and is seriously injured. Yesterday the media contacted over the phone Yumiko who is currently in Nanking, she denied that Tian Liang was attacked: "I don't know how exaggerated the rumors are spreading online, but actually last night (the 20th) we got off work and went to check out the bars in Nanking. We only sat there for a little bit when two or three people approached us. They did not say anything and threw beer cups, ashtrays and beer bottles at Peter and Tien Liang. There were broken glass all over the floor, Peter's hand was cut from the broken glass and was bleeding, his T-shirt was red from all the blood. Tian Liang dislocated his knee."
Witnessing the whole incident, Yumiko was in shock, the staff and security at the bar quickly dashed towards the trouble makers, protecting Yumiko and the rest of the guests in leaving the area. So were there any grudges between them that caused the attack? Yumiko said later that she heard the staff say when the those trouble-makers came to the bar, a few of them clearly pointed out that they wanted her to drink with them. Yumiko said: "Heard it was someone who has power, at the time the security and staff denied their request. It is suspected that they were unhappy about this, so they tried to attack my friends and I. Actually Peter and Tian Liang were innocently attacked and injured. (What did you do at the time?) I was so scared I became stiff, Peter's T-shirt had blood, so frightening!" As the injuries were not severe, no one was sent to the hospital. Yesterday the crew issued a statement and said that the incident will not affect the progress of filming. Filming is scheduled to complete early next month.
Online Netizens described Yumiko as a "TVB Star", she expressed unconvinced: "I released 11 albums and only filmed one series. I am actually more of a singer!" Yesterday Peter accepted a telephone interview and admitted that his left hand was injured and was bleeding: "At the time the situation was so dark and rough, I didn't know what was happening and someone used a beer bottle to attack me. I used my hand to block it, injuring my hand and started bleeding. The trouble-makers were later escorted away, I heard the bar called the police and they came to settle the incident. I did not go to the hospital, and not afraid of future danger. I went back to the hotel to treat the injury, fortunately there were no broken glass pieces left in my skin. There aren't any action scenes in the next few days, so I get on with filming."
