Chapter 579  : He’s Here!! (19)

After she said this, she noticed a strange expression appear on Mo Xicheng’s face.

She couldn’t help but wonder…

Had slapping Qiao Yiyi given her male idol the impression that she was an uncouth person?

She put her hands behind her back and looked at Mo Xicheng. “Well… I’m usually very gentle, actually. I don’t like violence!”

Mo Xicheng: …

Back at the filming location.

Imagining herself to be a tragic beauty, Qiao Yiyi walked towards the investor.

The people in front of her moved aside to form a clear path for her to pass.

As she went around the corner, she saw him at once.

He wore a black suit and walked with a strong, steady gait in his pair of highly polished leather shoes. A few more strides with his lanky legs, and he was in front of Qiao Yiyi.

She lifted her gaze.

The first thing that greeted her sight was his pair of tilted phoenix eyes that were mesmerizing in a nerve-wrecking way. His features were incredibly delicate, like they had been carved with an immortal axe. His beauty was heart-stopping, to say the least.

After this, one would notice his lips that were perpetually turned slightly upwards.

That signature smile of his would hardly disappear.

Yet, although he was smiling, people could inevitably feel the iciness behind.

His charm carried a sense of foreboding, and his body language possessed an undertone of boundless oppression. Unconsciously, people would turn respectful before him.

Qiao Yiyi’s eyes lit up and she called him in an anguished tone, “Second Brother…”

Then she quickly took a step towards him, turning and tilting her head to fully expose the angry red mark on her left cheek.

Her behavior made the director’s heart thump.

That was the end!

The investor had rushed over with such urgency the minute Qiao Yiyi was kicked by Best Actor Shen.

Of course, the director had been worried sick.

And now what had happened to her face?

That was it! Was the investor going to get angry now?

He looked questioningly at the filming staff on the side, hoping to get a hint on what had happened.

But just as he thought that the investor was going to blow his top, the man unexpectedly did not shift his gaze and looked as though he hadn’t even noticed Qiao Yiyi. Instead, he continued to walk ahead.

As he walked, his eyes swept through the staff gathered on either sides. There was an eagerness in his expression that made it look like he was searching for someone among the crowd. Completely ignoring Qiao Yiyi, he looked at the director instead and asked, “Is this everyone on the filming crew? What about the extras?”

The extras?

The director immediately replied, “The extras are all in a lounge at the back—”

Without waiting for him to finish, the investor strode away.

At the speed of the light!

Very quickly, the crowd dispersed.

Qiao Yiyi stood on the same spot, feeling like she had just been viciously slapped another time.

She curled her fingers tightly into a fist as she felt the gaze of the surrounding people burning into her.

But at the same time, anxiety was developing within her.

Second Brother must not meet Qiao Lian!

–

At this very same time, in Shen Liangchuan’s lounge.

Song Cheng stood at the doorway, hurrying him, “Brother Shen, hurry up, the investor is here! Ah, I can see him coming over now!”

Just as these words were being spoken, the man accompanied by the director looked as though he had just realized something and turned sharply to look in the direction of the lounge Qiao Lian was in.

When the director noticed this, he said respectfully, “That is the lounge of our male lead, Best Actor Shen. When you visited last time, he was away in Beijing and you didn’t get to meet him. Would you like to meet him this time?”
