Chapter 114 (1/2)
Dou Weir turns silent after hearing Ye Qing Xin’s words.
“I think about it over and over. Do you remember that I have an old friend that worked as an assistant for Jiang Xiao Luo’s makeup artist?”
Ye Qing Xin thinks about it and replies: “Yes.”
“Yesterday I asked her about ti and she said that Jiang Xiao Luo also joins that movie with Shi Ying. The male lead is Liang Jun Chao. There’re also several other popular actors and actresses. It has been invested for nearly twenty million Yuan. Directors, editors, are all famous people in industry…..”
Ye Qing Xin understands Dou Weir’s meaning. She asks: “So?”
“A group of famous actors and actresses, famous directors, great editors and writers, great investment. That movie has received a great attention even though it hasn’t started to shoot……”
Ye Qing Xin is silent.
Dou Weir says again: “Xin Xin, I want to go and try….. if I am successful, maybe I can break away from my current condition. If I failed, then I’ll just waste my time. Xin Xin, what do you think…..”
Ye Qing Xin says directly: “If what you said to me is real, then I’m afraid that a lot of people will fight madly for second-female role. There’s a lot of people in entertainment industry, how can it be yours if you are a newbie?”
“I asked my old friend. She said the role is more special. The director loves to find fault. He hasn’t found the one that he likes. She also told me that the director started to hesitate to look for the newbie.”
Ye Qing Xin looks at the window, the sky is blue.
Dou Weir keeps on talking: “I also feel that there will be a really small chance. But I just want to try. If I fail, then I’ll just let it go. I don’t lose anything.”
“Since you know that it’s low chance, then why should you try? Moreover I also feel that Shi Ying…. is not a good person. What if she plans something for you, you’ll be easily attacked by her.”
Dou Weir laughs: “Attacked by her? Can she beat me? Moreover, before you be together with Jing Bo Yuan? Didn’t you think it’ll be low chance to be with him? Now you are be with him and be a glittering phoenix?”
Ye Qing Xin suddenly turns speechless.
Dou Weir realizes her careless remark and apologizes: “I’m sorry Xin Xin. I don’t mean that way. I mean that everything is possible, I…….”
The atmosphere turns stiff.
After a long time.
Dou Weir apologizes again: “Xin Xin, I’m sorry…..”
Ye Qing Xin takes a deep breath and smiles: “If you want to try, then go try. I understand that you want to break away from your current condition but you need to be careful with Shi Ying. If you cannot do it then don’t force yourself. Hurry up go back to school. A woman shouldn’t drink out a lot of alcohols. Also if something happened, remember to call me.”
“Xin XIn….”
“Okay, don’t say it anymore. Send me things that you want to buy. I’ll go and take a look in the afternoon. I’ll hang up first.”
Ye Qing Xin just hangs up and stares blankly.
It’s not only stranger, the people beside her should be feeling that she be with Jing Bo Yuan is out-marry.
But it’s truth, but she feels that it hurts more than a stranger says that to her.
Ye Qing Xin stands up and walks toward the window. She looks at the scenery.
Okay, maybe this is too high, so she couldn’t blame them to think it that way.
Her phone rings once.
It’s a message from Dou Weir. She lists things that she wants Ye Qing Xin helps her to buy. It’s mostly cosmetics.
She also sends another chat: “Xin Xin, before I had a loose tongue. I’m sorry. Don’t be angry. Actually I think that you are really suitable for Big Boss Jing. At least you are younger than him!”
Ye Qing Xin laughs and replies with smiley emoticon.
This time.
A maid knocks at her door.
“Mrs, it’s lunch time.”
Ye Qing Xin puts away her phone and stands up. She nods.
The time she eats her lunch, her phone rings.
She takes it out and looks at the screen. It’s an unknown number.
Ye Qing Xin swallows her food and answers.
“Xin Xin.” It’s Gu Qiao’s gentle voice.
Ye Qing Xin is unexpected of it. She asks: “Qiao Qiao Jie?”
“You don’t expect me to call you right?” Gu Qiao’s voice is somewhat witty. She laughs and explains: “My grandma has your number.”
Ye Qing Xin just gets it.
“Is there any problem?”
“Can’t I call you if I have no problem?” Gu Qiao pretends to be unhappy: “Xin Xin, do you hate me?”
Ye Qing Xin: “No.”
“I’m joking with you! I just want to ask you whether you want to stroll around Tsim Sha Tsui? It’s too boring for me to stroll alone….”
Ye Qing Xin smiles: “Okay.”
She also feels unfamiliar about Hong Kong, previously she wanted to ask the butler to have one maid to accompany her stroll around. Gu Qiao also seems to familiar with Hong Kong.
“Where do you live? I can pick you.”
Ye Qing Xin: “…. No need, we can just meet up at Tsim Sha Tsui.”
Gu Qiao’s voice is so cheerful: “Okay, then I’ll go now. See you.”
“Em, see you.”
After the call ends, Ye Qing Xin bits her lips and looks at her bowl. Then she asks the butler: “That… what is the address of this house?”
The butler smiles and tells her the address.
