Chapter 432

The opening ceremony was held in a small square at the film and television city studio. By the time Qiao Sixiao arrived, the venue was already bustling with activity. Photography equipment was set up on both sides of the venue, and big shots from the industry had also come to show their support.

At this time, Qiao Sixiao had no time for Chen Xinya, let alone introduce these people to her. On the contrary, Qin Wei was pulled along by Qiao Sixiao to meet all kinds of friends, and the two "reconciled" in front of the cameras.

After some brief socializing, they waited for the "auspicious time" to start shooting. Since everyone had been busy for many days, they rarely got together after joining the crew, so the two of them chatted idly as they stood together, and couldn't help but poke fun at each other at first.

Qiao Sixiao was the first to speak, seeming nonchalant. She lazily asked:

"Where's Ju An? How come I don't see it here to attend the opening ceremony? I thought it would come today too, standing on my head to participate in the event."

She seemed to be angry about something, but Qin Wei couldn't understand. She looked at Qiao Sixiao very aggrieved:

"What strange thing are you talking about? My little bear is in my trailer right now. I like it, but I still know when to be appropriate, okay? Who would hold a teddy bear when they're at work? And do something so silly?

Our Ju An is a polite little bear. He won't randomly stand on other people's heads. Please stop slandering, Ms. Qiao, or you'll get a lawyer's letter from Ju An Studios. If you keep this up."

Being called silly by a silly person, Qiao Sixiao was a little angry:

"You're not silly? You hug Ju An at home every day, and take it wherever you go?

You're not silly? You used my account to buy peacocks for He Hong, and now it seems like the whole world knows I gave peacocks to He Hong, to raise them in Huanyi Backyard Garden.

This weird hot search has been trending on the entertainment hot search list for how many days? Do you know how many hahahahaha's I got in the comments under my Weibo post?"

This was indeed Qin Wei's fault, but she didn't remember much and didn't know what she was thinking when she bought the peacocks and gave them to He Hong...

Fortunately, He Hong's attitude was mild. She didn't slaughter these two non-displaying peacocks. Instead, she raised them at the company.

Many business partners came to take a look, just to see "President He's peacocks".

He Hong even invited Qin Wei to visit. The two peacocks spread their tails when they saw Qin Wei, and were photographed and posted online. Not only beautiful, but also trending.

...

Qin Wei smiled shyly:

"Actually not that expensive. Her Majesty liked them, that's good enough. No need to be polite..."

"Who's being polite with you? This is fucking outrageous!"

"How can you talk to your dad like that?"

Qiao Sixiao glared at her, then suddenly remembered what her assistant Xiao Liu told her about He Hong's expression when she saw the peacocks. She couldn't help laughing too.

Qin Wei didn't know what she was laughing about, but it just seemed so funny that she laughed along. Su Yang, who had just arrived, also wanted to laugh for no reason.

The three of them laughed for a long time for no apparent reason, and were secretly photographed by the paparazzi and posted online.

Comments:

[My husband is so handsome!]

[? There are three husbands here, which one is yours?]

[Grownups can choose them all]

[What are they laughing about?]

[I don't know, but good friends do this sometimes when they're together. My BFF and I laugh for no reason just from looking at each other hhhh]

[Seeing the three of them reminds me of Stellar*, it's almost over and I'm gonna miss it...]

[*Note: Name of the TV drama]

[Me too! At first many people on Dou Pod said it was boring. I only started watching to kill time after finishing Counterattack*, ended up binging it overnight and saw the rating on Dou Pod went up to 8.1 now!]

[*Note: Name of another TV drama]

[Well... after Dou Pod changed its system, many antis and water armies gave low ratings on purpose without watching the show first. But then... they got addicted after hate-watching, and many turned into fans now, even though some are still pretending to hate it.]

[I admit I used to hate it. I still don't like Qin Wei, her personality sucks. But who can resist watching a beauty in ancient costume? My phone wallpaper is filled with her now.]

[To be fair, the romance between the leads really sucks. I like Su Yang and my husband too, but their love story is so cringey...]

[Watching Counterattack* was so boring, I'm rewatching Stellar* now...]

[Who still remembers Counterattack*? It was good, I gave it a high rating after finishing it, but on my rewatch I realized the female lead's scheming nature, it's less surprising now...]

...

The opening ceremony began, grand and spectacular. The four leads stood in pairs beside the director, offering incense and taking photos. In the end, they received a thick red envelope.

This was Qin Wei's favorite part.

Enduring the smoke and fire here was all for this moment!

When the ceremony ended, Qin Wei held out her hands to her roommate.

Her roommate immediately understood and slapped her hands harshly.

"I hate beggars the most."

The roommate said and left angrily.

"Here's mine." A red envelope of considerable weight fell into Qin Wei's hands.

"Hmm?"

Qin Wei raised her eyebrows in surprise, then put away the red envelope and asked:

"Long time no see, Shen Qingqing. What are you doing here? I didn't see you just now. Oh right, I didn't see you at the script reading either, thought you weren't coming."

Shen Qingqing sighed and looked exhausted. She gestured for Qin Wei to walk and talk:

"First of all, who owns the film and television city? You know the answer, so it's not weird for me to show up here.

Secondly, I'm only guest starring, so of course I didn't go to the script reading.

Lastly, I prepared that red envelope for you myself. I miss you so much but you don't even think about me..."

As she was speaking, Qin Wei had already started counting the money.

Very good. The crew gave 6,666 yuan for the wish of "liu liu da shun" [smooth sailing]. And Shen Qingqing gave 9,999 yuan because she was happy.

Shen Qingqing: "⊙〈⊙..."

Qin Wei put away the money and brought her onto the trailer, then said:

"I did send you messages, you didn't reply. I was waiting for your reply the whole time, okay!"

Shen Qingqing glanced at her phone, and indeed there were unread messages from Qin Wei, she didn't lie.

Shen Qingqing sighed:

"Oh...I've just been too tired lately. My dad insists on arranging blind dates for me, it's so tiring to deal with..."

Shen Qingqing sat on the sofa,

"Qin Wei let's elope! I have several villas abroad, we can go anywhere. My dad is so annoying..."

After Qin Wei came in, makeup artist Xiao Yan started working on her look. She replied to Shen Qingqing:

"I'm working these days. Let's elope on vacation, I want to go skiing ?"

Shen Qingqing thought about it:

"Then let's go to Northern Europe. I happen to have a villa there too. We'll go in a few months... No, not to travel! I'm talking about eloping!"

Qin Wei told her:

"That won't work. Shen Qingqing, tell your dad clearly that you don't want this. Then try to become more independent. I've met your parents, they don't insist on marrying you off. They're probably just worried no one will take care of you in the future. Don't believe me? Try it. Once you become strong, your parents won't worry about you not being able to take care of yourself anymore."

Shen Qingqing didn't reply. She seemed to be considering Qin Wei's words.

"But I'm a little curious, who are the blind date prospects? Who could get your parents' approval?"

"The new president of the Xu's Group. You know him too, your former boss, Xu Mingchuan."

Qin Wei frowned and turned around ignoring makeup artist Xiao Yan's obstruction:

"Is it appropriate to put 'former' in front of boss?"
