Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Qiao Xi Gets Hit
"What are you rushing about like that?" Qiao Xi glanced at her, "Close the door first."
"Oh." Bei Bei obediently went out to close the door, then ran back, "Sister Xi, it’s a big deal!"
"What big deal?"
Qiao Xi’s face was covered with a script, somewhat lacking in interest.
Bei Bei took away her script and shoved the phone right in front of Qiao Xi’s eyes, "Look at the phone."
Qiao Xi was speechless, "I can’t see it like this."
"Take a closer look!" Bei Bei was desperate, and without waiting for Qiao Xi to finish, she said, "Qiao Group belongs to your family, right?"
Bei Bei still roughly knew about Qiao Xi’s family background, even though she wasn’t very clear about the intricacies.
"It definitely belongs to my family."
Qiao Xi moved the phone away, and a push notification came into view.
"IDC Capital successfully takes over the core project of Qiao Group, Qiao Group seems to be facing bankruptcy and liquidation?"
A trace of amusement flickered in Qiao Xi’s eyes.
This scoop, was it released by Qiao Zhenbin himself?
Usually, Shen Dang was low-key, and given that this was a business matter, major incidents were rarely reported and only circulated within the industry, but releasing this information still drew quite a bit of attention.
What was Qiao Zhenbin trying to do with this publicity?
It was a bit funny, did he really think he could change anything?
The matter was already decided, this was merely a dying struggle.
Bei Bei kept talking incessantly, "In these past few years, IDC Capital has become so prominent that even an ordinary person like me knows its powerful background. Sister, is that project from your family really valuable?"
Now that the project had been taken away, what would her Sister Xi’s family do?
Qiao Xi handed the phone back to Bei Bei, "Of course it’s valuable."
Bei Bei’s eyes sparkled, "How much?"
Could she, a corporate slave, really know that?
Qiao Xi flicked her on the forehead, "Are you really concerned about this?"
Bei Bei lay on the couch, "After all, it’s your family’s company, Sister Xi. The news says your company is going bankrupt, aren’t you worried?"
That’s why, upon seeing this news, Bei Bei became flustered.
"I’m not worried." Qiao Xi closed her eyes with an indifferent demeanor.
What was there for her to worry about?
Not to mention Qiao’s wouldn’t go bankrupt now, even if it did, it would actually save Qiao Xi a lot of effort.
Bei Bei paused for several seconds, then gave a thumbs up, "You really are my Sister Xi, still so composed at this time."
Qiao Xi opened her script again and continued reading it.
Bei Bei didn’t disturb her and hurried out to chat and gossip with a group of assistants.
Today was another beautiful day.
Qiao Xi glanced at the closed door and opened her phone to send a message to Shen Dang.
She had to congratulate him.
Shen Dang was probably busy, so he did not reply to her.
After resting, Qiao Xi went back to shooting and put the matter aside.
At this time, Gao Weiya and Li Zhi had already developed feelings for each other.
But due to the differences in reality, the two hadn’t revealed their feelings to each other yet.
However, Gao Weiya decided to confess to Li Zhi today.
He couldn’t wait any longer, he wanted to announce to everyone that he wanted to be with Li Zhi!
Director Ye sat in front of the monitor, "Get ready, everyone take your places!"
Extras surged forward.
Neon lights dazzling on the street painted a bustling scene of the Republic Era, as trams thundered past, intertwining a grand sight.
Li Zhi came to meet Gao Weiya’s invitation.
Qiao Xi alighted from the tram, her slim and fair calves glimpsed beneath her cheongsam as she gracefully walked up to a candied hawthorn stall.
"Zhizhi!" At that moment, Qin Mo appeared, dressed in a light brown uniform, looking spirited.
Qiao Xi turned around and the light softly illuminated her face, betraying a flicker of affection from the corner of her eyes.
The top courtesan, proud by nature, had now stepped down from her high position for the man she loved.
"Weiya, you’re here."
Director Ye watched the monitor, breathing softly.
It seemed he saw a couple from the Republic Era, restraining yet irresistibly drawn to each other.
The two bought a string of candied hawthorn and strolled along the bustling street.
Qin Mo was about to confess, when Ning Xuexi appeared.
"You, you cheap woman, why are you with Brother Weiya!" Xu Jiajia, born into a noble family, secretly loved her childhood friend Gao Weiya and naturally did not show a good face to Li Zhi who had inserted herself into their relationship, gritted her teeth and cursed, "You’re just a lowly prostitute, you don’t deserve to stand by Brother Weiya’s side!"
"Cut, cut, cut!" Director Ye frowned and scolded, "Ning Xuexi, what are you doing? Why this cannibalistic look? You just found out about Li Zhi, you’re just annoyed that she stole Gao Weiya’s attention, not to the point of wanting her dead!"
"Director, I’m sorry!"
Ning Xuexi accidentally displayed her inner emotions.
Qiao Xi had always been suppressing her, and now she even came to act opposite her; wasn’t Ning Xuexi just full of murderous resentment?
"Take a moment to adjust yourself."
A perfectly good scene was ruined by her.
"Qiao Xi, do you want this candied hawthorn?" Qin Mo looked at Qiao Xi, his gaze contained.
Director Ye passed by them, not in the best of moods, "Eat what? This is a prop!"
Qin Mo and Qiao Xi always had smooth interactions while filming scenes together and never had a NG.
It changed the moment Ning Xuexi appeared.
"Director, we have plenty of props," Qin Mo didn’t care about the director, "Qiao Xi, you eat."
Qiao Xi smiled briefly and waved her hand, "I don’t like eating things that are too sweet."
"Alright then."
"Also, you don’t need to prepare my breakfast in the morning; I find it a bit awkward."
Qin Mo had always used the excuse of his assistant buying extra breakfast to deliver different types of breakfast to Bei Bei every day.
He just left after delivering, not allowing any chance for rejection.
It was not really overstepping, so it was difficult for anyone to say anything.
Qiao Xi felt somewhat powerless.
She couldn’t just presume Qin Mo liked her.
Qin Mo restrained his gaze, "Alright then."
Director Ye’s voice came from the loudspeaker, "Come and reshoot the remaining part of the scene!"
Ning Xuexi stood in front of Qiao Xi, haughty with scorn for the top courtesan in her eyes, "You cheap woman, why are you with Brother Weiya!"
She raised her hand and slapped Qiao Xi, "You’re just a lowly prostitute; you don’t deserve to stand by Brother Weiya’s side!"
This fight scene wasn’t in the script.
"What are you doing?" Qin Mo’s eyes pressed down with a hint of fierceness.
Ning Xuexi looked towards Director Ye, "Director, Xu Jiajia deeply loves Gao Weiya, knowing that the person she loves actually loves another woman and is planning to confess, hitting her in desperation is right, isn’t it?"
This wasn’t unacceptable, but the script did not contain this scene, and usually, fight scenes are staged.
Qiao Xi was the leading actress he had chosen, naturally, Director Ye had to give her some face, "Why are you taking things into your own hands? It’s okay to change the script, but you can’t hit for real!"
"Really sorry, Director, I just wanted to produce a better effect, I’ll definitely discuss with Senior Qiao Xi beforehand next time," Ning Xuexi actively apologized, shooting a triumphant glance at Qiao Xi.
She finally vented her spleen.
Director Ye walked over to her, "Qiao Xi, how are you?"
