Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Sisters at Odds

"Oh my, could it be a conflict between sisters?"

"Is it that thrilling?"

As a makeup artist who often works with celebrities, she naturally knew the sisters had a good relationship.

At first, she thought it was just an act for public image, but it turned out their affection was genuine.

That must be rare in the entertainment industry, right?

The costume and makeup department of "Blossoms Old Dreams" was exceptionally good, perfectly in tune with the era and creating a strong atmosphere.

For instance, today Qiao Xi wore a rose-red cheongsam, exuding enchanting charm.

Such a color requires a fair complexion to pull off.

On Qiao Xi, it looked as if it was tailor-made for her.

"Beautiful!"

Everyone on set who saw Qiao Xi couldn’t help but admire.

"All right, ready!" Director Ye was in high spirits, the atmosphere of the crew was really good now.

Let’s maintain this and avoid any controversies!

Qiao Xi stood by the dock, boats coming and going, and her long hair fluttered in the wind behind her.

"Li Zhi!" Su Tutu appeared in high heels, her chin lifted arrogantly.

She wore a white cheongsam with a lace shawl over her shoulders, accentuating her graceful neck.

Qiao Xi was surprised, "Why is it you?"

"Of course, I lured you here using Weiya’s name."

Realizing she had been deceived, Qiao Xi turned to leave.

Su Tutu spread her arms to block her, "I’m about to get engaged to Weiya, stop bothering him. I heard you used to be a rich lady, even though you’re a prostitute now, you don’t want to be the other woman, right?"

Qiao Xi felt a shock, something in her eyes seemed to shatter.

The next second, Qiao Xi lifted her alluring and charming face, her phoenix eyes slightly upturned, her lips curving into a faint smile, fearless and unwavering, "Since I’m already a prostitute, what’s the harm in being someone’s mistress?"

Gao Weiya was like a fire, burning the darkness deep inside her.

At the end of the road, one tends to grasp at the last straw.

Weiya, for Li Zhi, was that life-saving straw.

If they love each other, must they succumb to reality and separate?

No!

She wanted to prove it, to resist this world!

Annoyance and anger intermingled on Su Tutu’s face, "Li Zhi, you really have no shame!"

"But your brother Weiya just loves this face of mine."

"You..."

"Okay, cut!" Director Ye looked at them, "Take a break! Get ready for the scene in the water in a moment."

Su Tutu hooked Qiao Xi’s shoulder, grinning, "Be gentle in the scene later, sister."

Qiao Xi flicked her eyelid, "Ask the director if he agrees."

Su Tutu sniffed pitifully, "Mmm... I’m going to complain to my husband."

"Being married doesn’t make you special."

"Indeed!"

After some banter, when the crew was ready, they filmed the scene in the water.

In the heat of their argument, Qiao Xi accidentally pushed Su Tutu into the water.

Gao Weiya, aware that Jiajia had secretly summoned Li Zhi out, hurried over fearing for her safety, only to witness Li Zhi pushing Jiajia into the water.

Without a word, he jumped in to retrieve Su Tutu.

"Cough, cough, cough..." To add realism, Su Tutu really let herself choke.

"Jiajia, are you alright?"

"Brother Weiya, Li Zhi tried to kill me!" Su Tutu pointed at Qiao Xi.

Qin Mo lifted his dark eyes, looking at Qiao Xi with disappointment, "Zhizhi, Jiajia can’t swim."

After saying that, he no longer spared Qiao Xi a glance, carrying Su Tutu away.

Qiao Xi still stood on the dock, the wind seemed to pierce through her heart, destroying her confidence.

What is love?

Can love truly last forever?

Qiao Xi’s expression was calm, but beneath that placid face was evident world-weary desolation.

She looked up, her profile beautiful, a glint of disappointment flashed through her eyes.

Director Ye excitedly shouted "Cut!"

Qiao Xi snapped back to reality, the coldness in her eyes lingering.

She and Li Zhi shared the same question, what really is love?

"Are you okay, Tutu?" Su Tutu changed out of her wet clothes, her face red from coughing.

Even though it was summer, falling into water was no joke.

Su Tutu’s eyes were reddened, she waved nonchalantly, "It’s okay, don’t worry."

The woman who said she was fine, a moment later called her husband seeking comfort, tearfully.

Qiao Xi: "..."

The heart of a woman, unfathomable as the sea.

"Husband, I was just pushed into the water by Xixi." A pitiful tone, her fingers tapping the edge of the table.

Sheng Chao couldn’t bear it, his voice cold, "Use a stunt double next time."

Su Tutu scratched her chin, "That won’t do, using a double would be unfair to my profession."

Sheng Chao helplessly, "Then next time I see Shen Dang, I’ll punch him."

Su Tutu puzzled, "Why would you hit Boss Shen?"

Su Tutu switched on the speakerphone.

Sheng Chao’s imposing voice came through, "Qiao Xi pushed you into the water, I can only settle it with Shen Dang."

He couldn’t bully women on behalf of his wife.

Su Tutu giggled, "Can you even beat Boss Shen?"

"Don’t you know your husband’s strength?"

Qiao Xi: "..."

Why show off this love?

After hanging up, Su Tutu moved closer to Qiao Xi, blinking, "Xixi, what’s really going on between you and Boss Shen?"

Qiao Xi glanced at the little temptress before her, "He’s my husband."

Su Tutu furrowed her brow, "Anyone who doubts your love, I’ll slap them!"

The same words from both, what was there to doubt?

Hehe, she looked forward to the day they would be ’proven right.’

Qiao Xi: "???"

Great, her good sister was acting abnormal after falling into the water.

...

Shooting proceeded steadily, now two months into it.

In September, Jiang City remained hot like summer, though the nights had begun to cool.

Qiao Xi and Su Tutu practiced lines in the resting room, Bei Bei rushed in frantically, "Sister Xi, there’s really big trouble now!"

Qiao Xi lazily lifted her eyes, graceful yet indifferent, "What big trouble?"

"Did someone’s affair get exposed in the entertainment industry?" Su Tutu looked over, curious.

Bei Bei was momentarily speechless, "It’s not about any affairs, but it is about the entertainment industry."

Bei Bei turned her phone screen toward them, "IDC Capital’s President Shen has successfully acquired GK Entertainment."

Hmm, two months, and Shen Dang finally took over GK Entertainment.

Su Tutu logged into her Weibo for a quick look, then secretly signaled Qiao Xi, "Boss Shen is impressive."

"Oh," Qiao Xi unenthusiastically looked down at her script, her thoughts elsewhere.

Bei Bei was puzzled by their lack of reaction, "Why are you reacting like this?"

This was a major event in the entertainment industry!

A giant company like GK Entertainment changing bosses just like that!

This was a sign of changing times in the entertainment industry!

Su Tutu patted her shoulder, "You’re still a child, you wouldn’t understand."

Bei Bei: "?"

Why make personal attacks during a normal conversation.

Dammit, women and their gossip, Bei Bei couldn’t resist asking, "Tutu, what is it that I can’t understand?"
