Chapter 119
Lin Mingxu's eyes were sharp, but Xu Qingyao did not choose to give in.
She looked directly into his eyes and explained seriously, "The line just now is what Zhang Xue wanted to say. She didn't really want to comfort Haojie, so I think she must want to test Haojie's attitude at this time.
"
Lin Mingxu did not express his position. He looked Xu Qingyao up and down again.
The atmosphere in the conference room was anxious. The actor-director beside him was so worried that his bald head was covered with sweat, for fear that the director would continue to fuss over everything.
"Do you always add your own ideas every time you act?" Lin Mingxu asked forcefully.
"If I feel it's necessary."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Hearing Xu Qingyao's answer, Lin Mingxu suddenly laughed loudly. He applauded and walked to her side, "You did a good job. The role of 'Zhang Xue' belongs to you!"
Xu Qingyao's eyes widened in surprise.
She actually succeeded in her audition!!!
"The producer will contact you in two days to sign a contract. You are welcome to join my crew."
Xu Qingyao hurriedly bowed and thanked, "Thank you, director!"
"Play well, Xu Qingyao." Lin Mingxu patted her shoulder.
Xu Qingyao walked out of the conference hall in a daze, trying to digest the good news.
I didn't expect that she would still be chosen by the director after putting aside her acting skills for so long.
The conference hall was on the sixth floor of the Juexing Hotel. Xu Qingyao stood in front of the elevator, lowering her head to report the situation to Qiao Xiaorui.
The elevator door opened and she lowered her head and entered.
"It wasn't enough to follow me in the hospital last time, so you're following me again this time?"
A familiar voice sounded, and Xu Qingyao raised her head suddenly, only to see Gu Peiran and his long-time friend Qiao Yuanjia standing beside her.
Gu Peiran put one hand in his pocket, looked at Xu Qingyao's obviously carefully dressed makeup, and raised an eyebrow in displeasure.
"You're so sentimental!" Xu Qingyao said coldly and looked away, as if she wasn't familiar with him.
Gu Peiran's face turned cold and he was about to speak.
Qiao Yuanjia hurriedly came to the rescue and said, "Sister-in-law, long time no see. Why do you have time to play here?"
Qiao Yuanjia has been Gu Peiran's brother for many years, and Xu Qingyao has met him several times before.
But she has never been able to fit into Gu Peiran's circle. Every time they meet, she can only sit in the corner alone and wait for the party to end.
The two of them just nodded and never spoke.
Xu Qingyao smiled at Qiao Yuanjia out of politeness.
"I have something to do, so I came here. Anyway, it's not to follow Mr. Gu."
Xu Qingyao's extremely contrasting attitude made Gu Peiran's face suddenly darken.
Qiao Yuanjia saw that the atmosphere between the two was not right and laughed awkwardly a few times.
Fortunately, he was a chatterbox and continued to talk shamelessly, "Sister-in-law, do you live in Juexing now? I'll ask the front desk to waive your room fee later."
"This hotel is a joint project between Brother Gu and I. Sister-in-law, you can stay wherever you like."
"Thank you for your kindness." Xu Qingyao refused, "I don't live here."
When the elevator stopped, she walked out without looking back, completely ignoring Gu Peiran.
"Sister-in-law, what's going on? You don't have relationship problems, right..."
Gu Peiran ignored Qiao Yuanjia's heartfelt gloating about his misfortune and chased after him with a stern face.
At the door of the hotel, he pulled Xu Qingyao's wrist hard.
"What are you doing in the hotel dressed like this?" The tone was full of questions.
Xu Qingyao was instantly aroused and said, "Let me go!"
However, her strength was no match for Gu Peiran, and her wrists were strangled with red marks.
"I heard the nanny said you didn't come home last night?" Gu Peiran continued to question.
"Yes! I have moved out!" Xu Qingyao said angrily, "Let me go quickly, or I will sue you for sexual harassment!"
Gu Peiran ignored her resistance and said, "The police have nothing to do with my housework."
Then his eyes fell on the red mark on Xu Qingyao's wrist, and he relaxed a little, "Come back with me tonight. Mom needs to see you if I have something to do."
"We are getting divorced soon. There is no need to live together! Mr. Gu really needs someone to accompany him. He can find whomever he wants to find. You can also have someone familiar with mom in advance to avoid conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future!"
Xu Qingyao took the opportunity to withdraw her hand and took a few steps back.
I didn't mention his cheating, and I didn't want to argue about it in public.
"Also, I have borrowed money from a friend and will repay the Xu family's debt to you as soon as possible. From now on, we will go back to our original destination."
Without waiting for Gu Peiran to answer, she turned around and jumped into a taxi.
Gu Peiran gritted his teeth, his temples throbbing with anger.
Xu Qingyao has always been docile and has never spoken loudly to him after marriage. Except for sometimes deliberately causing trouble to attract his attention, she is generally virtuous and kind.
I don’t know why I suddenly changed my temper, I have been contradicting him since yesterday, and I even had the courage to propose divorce.
Gu Peiran took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his assistant Jiang Yuan.
Since she refused to tell, don't blame him for checking. He wanted to see if any of Xu Qingyao's friends dared to lend her money.
Seeing Xu Qingyao leaving, Qiao Yuanjia, who had been watching for a long time, dared to step forward.
"Brother Gu, is my sister-in-law going to divorce you?"
"You heard wrong." Gu Peiran glanced at him and said coldly.
Qiao Yuanjia looked at the direction Xu Qingyao was leaving and couldn't help but sigh, "Sister-in-law is so beautiful and gentle and virtuous. If you hadn't made her angry, how could you have such a bad temper? What's the reason for making trouble this time?
Is it time to get divorced?"
"I just said, you heard me wrong. It's impossible for us to get divorced."
"..."
Qiao Yuanjia was speechless.
What's wrong with Gu Peiran? He didn't dare to speak loudly to his wife just now, but then he turned around and lost his temper with himself.
Xu Qingyao in the taxi was still angry. She was typing loudly and complaining to Qiao Xiaorui about Gu Peiran.
The two of them were scolding each other when their cell phone rang.
It's my mother, Zhao Zhilan's phone number.
Xu Qingyao slowly pressed the call button. She didn't plan to tell her family about her decision to divorce, lest Zhao Zhilan would say some nonsense that she couldn't bear.
"Qingyao, what are you doing? Are you at home?"
"Mom, I'm shopping outside." Xu Qingyao lied without blinking.
"You are really lucky. You can still go shopping on weekdays. Sure enough, you are going to enjoy the blessings when you marry into the Gu family. Unlike Aiba and I who are always busy for fear of missing a piece of business. We don't have that.
You have such a good life! And your father always talks about going out to talk things over these days, who knows if he actually goes to talk..."
Zhao Zhilan was complaining on the phone, nodding at Xu Qingyao both inside and outside her words.
Xu Qingyao felt uncomfortable listening to this, and while Zhao Zhilan was drinking water, she quickly interjected, "Mom, do you have a problem with me?"
"Hey, what can I do? It's your sister who is looking for you. A few days ago, Aibo saw a bag and said it was some kind of limited edition. There were only a hundred of them in the world. She cried and made a fuss and insisted on buying it. The price.
It's only a few hundred thousand. I want you to buy it for her and give it to her as a gift. You are a sister, so you have to help mom take care of her."
"Several hundred thousand, so expensive?!" Xu Qingyao repeated in disbelief.
Zhao Zhilan heard her reluctance and immediately scolded, "What do you mean?! You enjoy the hot food at Gu's house every day, and Aiba suffers at home with us. As a sister, you don't know how to feel sorry for your sister.
