Chapter 180: 80 Pie falls from the sky_1

"Ah, isn’t this our dear Xiaomu? What’s this? Director Chen’s choice turns out to be my little sister?"

Upon seeing her enter, Jing Qing immediately clasped her hands together, her face brimming with the message that they were sisters, kin.

"Yes, it’s what Mr. Mu wants."

Director Chen thought for a moment before replying, a man who usually barks orders on set, but there were times, such as now, when he faced difficulty.

One was Mr. Mu’s most cherished darling, and the other was the apple of the Jing Family’s eye; he couldn’t afford to offend either.

"Miss Jing, you must be joking. How could I be so fortunate to be your sister? I don’t even acknowledge that girl from the Qin Family."

Qin Mu responded indifferently, then greeted the director: "Director Chen, I have long admired your reputation, thank you for having me this time!"

"Miss Qin, no need for formalities. Mr. Mu has already instructed me, please take a seat."

Qin Mu nodded and sat next to Director Chen. Jing Qing, with her gaze lowered, unconsciously bit her lip, then raised a smile again.

"Wasn’t Miss Jing away shooting on location?" Qin Mu turned her gaze to her, having already guessed much of the situation.

"I’ve always been the one endorsing the hotel’s advertisements in the past."

"Oh? Mr. Mu never mentioned this to me, saying instead that I was the most suitable candidate."

"All of Rongcheng knows that all of AM’s advertisements have been endorsed by me, how could you not know?"

"I truly didn’t know, especially since I have only recently returned to the country, and during this time, due to people’s ’kind thoughts,’ I haven’t even had the chance to turn on the TV to watch advertisements or the like."

When Qin Mu said this, she naturally looked at Jing Qing. Jing Qing was returning the look, and the murderous intent in both of their eyes was heavy, especially Jing Qing’s, who could scarcely swallow her anger.

Hearing from someone next to Director Chen that they were going to use Qin Mu for the advertisement, she rushed back immediately, but still couldn’t stop it.

Was Mu Yichen planning to give all of his fortune to this woman?

Jing Qing couldn’t accept this, nor did she believe it!

"I heard Miss Qin is a very famous designer, who even endorsed big brands in Paris, truly admirable indeed."

Now that Director Chen was using Qin Mu, and with Mu Yichen being his financial backer, it was obvious on whose side he must speak, which made it even harder for Jing Qing to remain composed.

"Director Chen, that’s not what you used to say. Didn’t you say before that I was the most precious woman in Rongcheng? That for AM’s endorsement, no one in Rongcheng was suitable but me."

Jing Qing immediately turned her head to confront Director Chen. Qin Mu didn’t plan to tear her face right away, but she had no such concerns about Director Chen.

"It seems Director Chen’s taste is indeed excellent, but wasn’t it because I wasn’t there at that time?"

Qin Mu’s bright eyes stared at the woman across from her. Jing Qing found her gaze abrasive; the smile vanished from her face, and she spoke coldly, "If Director Chen can’t give me an explanation for this, I’ll personally go to Mr. Mu. But Director Chen, don’t come to me for any future films or dramas. As for Miss Qin here, she will certainly not be starring in your TV series or movies."

"What’s the reason for that?"

Director Chen actually thought Qin Mu would be perfect for a role as soon as he saw her, and after hearing Jing Qing speak, his heart cooled.

"Being a pet always comes at a price. You can ask Miss Qin. I’ll take my leave first."

Jing Qing scoffed and stood up, grabbing her purse.

"Some people don’t even have the value of being a pet, that is truly pitiful."

Upon hearing the word ’pet,’ Qin Mu’s expression grew cold, and she blocked Jing Qing before she reached the door with a retort.

"If I were to be one, I would be the legitimate wife, not a pet. Only a lowly woman like you would stoop to that."

Jing Qing immediately turned around to confront her.

"I’m afraid Miss Jing will have to wait a few years for that, waiting for me to abdicate in favor."

"What?"

"I guess Miss Jing must have headed straight for the hotel upon returning. Perhaps you should go home and ask your grandfather before considering whether you qualify to say what you just did."

Throughout the exchange, Qin Mu never looked at her, instead gently caressing the ring on her other hand.

Jing Qing’s face turned pale, but within seconds, she briskly opened the door and left.

Of course, she had to go home and verify with her grandfather. If her grandfather had known about Mu Yichen marrying Qin Mu, how could he have not told her?

No, it must be that Qin Mu fabricated the story just to secure the advertisement spot; Jing Qing thought as she hurried away even faster.

It took a long while after she left for Qin Mu to regain her composure. She saw Director Chen staring at the ring on her hand and smiled at him unconsciously, "Don’t mind it, Director Chen. My interactions with Miss Jing have always been like this."
