Chapter 197: Chapter 197 Qiao Nan Enters the Entertainment Circle
Qiao Nan finally couldn’t help but tell Qiao Zhenbin about encountering Qiao Xi at Tan Garden.
It wasn’t easy for her to venture into the entertainment industry alone; she had to rely on the name of her sister, Qiao Xi.
Yet, even as she planned to use Qiao Xi, she still spoke ill of her in front of Qiao Zhenbin.
Of course, whether she spoke ill or not, Qiao Zhenbin had already become thoroughly disillusioned with Qiao Xi.
Qiao Nan finally said, "Dad, our family isn’t like before. I need to work hard to earn money to support you and mom. My sister has connections in the entertainment industry, and she has now signed with my brother-in-law’s company. I also want to enter GK. Once I start earning money from acting, I will give it all to you, Dad, to make a comeback. We can definitely restore the Qiao Family to its former glory!"
Qiao Xi had become the enemy of the Qiao Family; her dad only had one daughter left, so could he possibly rely on anyone but her?
Qiao Nan had begun to dream big, and Qiao Zhenbin was indeed moved by her words.
Qiao Nan coquettishly shook Qiao Zhenbin’s arm, "Dad, could you please speak to my sister? Surely she can’t refuse to help us with such a small matter? If she won’t, she’s just heartless!"
Wang Wen sneered from the side, "Your sister wouldn’t even plead with the Shen Family on our behalf. How could she possibly help you with this? It’s like raising a daughter worse than a dog. But husband, I think Nannan’s right."
Being a star was so glamorous. If her daughter could also break into the industry and outshine Qiao Xi, they could trample her underfoot.
Being a star’s mother was far better than being the useless Madam Qiao now!
Look at Qiao Xi now, flaunting her status as a star so arrogantly!
It’s infuriating!
After the acquisition of the Qiao Group, Qiao Zhenbin had grown to detest Qiao Xi’s inaction.
The back-and-forth between mother and daughter had already darkened Qiao Zhenbin’s face like the bottom of a pot.
His voice stern, he said, "Dad knows you are more filial than she, but the problem is I can’t contact her now. How can I talk to her?"
Qiao Nan thought this was too easy, "Just use a servant’s phone to call her. If she doesn’t help, I still have a way. Dad, we’ve got nothing to lose!"
Qiao Zhenbin, unfamiliar with the entertainment industry, asked, "Would your brother-in-law’s entertainment company be okay?"
The company was gone, and he only had the money obtained from selling his shares, so naturally, Qiao Zhenbin was still thinking about making a comeback.
And rising again would require a lot of money.
Seeing Qiao Nan’s filial piety, his heart stirred.
If one daughter didn’t work out, the second one still could.
Qiao Nan nodded, "Of course it’s fine. It’s even better than Shengshi Entertainment. As long as I get into GK, I’m not afraid of lacking resources."
She believed she would become famous very quickly!
But she needed to create a stunning impression when she first appeared in the entertainment circle, leaving the audience with an unforgettable presence.
Just like how Qiao Xi had quickly been labeled as the ’Goddess of Divine Beauty’ when she entered the circle; if Qiao Xi could rely on her face, she could too.
Qiao Nan walked behind Qiao Zhenbin, massaging his shoulders, "I will earn a lot of money to honor Dad."
At that moment, Wang Wen was also basking in the joy of soon being a star’s mother: "Husband, call her quickly. It’s not like we’re asking her for much, just a word from her. Talk to her nicely."
...
Yingyue Bay.
Shen Dang got off work and immediately went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Dressed in a suit and oozing sophistication, he hardly looked like someone who would wield a spatula in the kitchen.
Qiao Xi watched his tall figure and couldn’t help but feel slightly dazed.
It seemed like they were living the life of a normal married couple.
Qiao Xi sat alone in the living room watching TV, but her eyes occasionally drifted towards the kitchen door.
Seeing him busily working alone, she finally stood up and walked towards him, "Shen Dang, need any help?"
Shen Dang turned and glanced at her, "What can you help with?"
Qiao Xi chuckled silently, "I could assist you."
"You know how?"
Boss Shen’s tone was full of doubt.
Unable to resist, Qiao Xi rolled her eyes at him.
Annoyed, she said, "Even though I rarely cook, it doesn’t mean I’m useless."
If she couldn’t even do this, how could she survive?
Qiao Xi felt that just sitting there waiting to eat didn’t feel right; she guiltily thought she should at least do something.
After all, their relationship was different now.
With the change in their relationship, naturally, their attitudes had to change as well.
Shen Dang didn’t see her rolling her eyes and chuckled softly at her words, "Since you really want to help, then wash the tomatoes, scallions, and garlic for me and just leave them there; I’ll do the chopping."
"Okay."
Qiao Xi fetched what he needed from the fridge, placed them under the faucet to wash, and then set them on a clean plate.
As he began to cook, he moved a bit away from Qiao Xi, "I’m starting to cook now; the fumes are strong, so stand back a bit."
"Okay."
Qiao Xi responded and looked up at the running exhaust fan, noticing she couldn’t smell a hint of smoke.
Watching Shen Dang skillfully stir-frying, a smile leaked from Qiao Xi’s eyes.
After the cooking was done, Shen Dang asked her to get a plate: "Pass me a plate."
"Alright."
"Okay, take it out."
"Okay."
Qiao Xi was indeed just helping out.
With her help, a sumptuous dinner had been prepared.
Qiao Xi and Shen Dang sat at the dining table.
Shen Dang poured some red wine into a tall glass and placed one in front of Qiao Xi.
She glanced at it but didn’t refuse.
Both were very satisfied with the meal.
Qiao Xi felt a bit tipsy, her mind wandering, yet she felt exhilarated.
After dinner, as usual, Shen Dang did the dishes.
Qiao Xi lazily returned to the sofa, her elbow resting on the armrest, her eyes gazing in the direction of the kitchen door.
Even washing dishes, the man was a delight to the eyes.
Just then, her phone suddenly rang.
Qiao Xi saw it was an unfamiliar number from Hai City.
Usually, some work-related calls came to her phone, so she answered it.
"Xixi."
Hearing the voice on the other end, Qiao Xi immediately frowned, her reaction a bit slow due to the alcohol.
Before she could hang up, she heard Qiao Zhenbin continue, "Your sister wants to enter the entertainment industry. As her sister, help her out. After all, you two are sisters, and sisters should stick together and love each other."
Qiao Xi felt the irony, overwhelming irony.
After laying things bare with Qiao Zhenbin, he still dared to use the sisterly relationship to morally bind her.
And he said it as if it was the most natural thing.
Qiao Xi didn’t hang up immediately, but instead asked coldly and lazily, "What kind of help do you want me to provide?"
Qiao Zhenbin, thinking he had a chance, restrained his excitement, "Just bring your sister into GK Entertainment. Family should stick together. The entertainment circle is so chaotic, just ensure your sister’s safety, that shouldn’t be too hard for you and Ah Dang, right?"
He spoke as if it were a trivial matter that she should definitely help with.
Qiao Xi smirked dismissively, "She wants to enter GK? She’s biting off more than she can chew, isn’t she afraid of choking?"
