The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 315

In the afternoon when the shooting was going on, Qiao Sixiao went back to the hotel to rest while Qin Wei continued shooting. Not long after, Li Liang came over to deliver dinner to her.

Today's dinner was more sumptuous than usual, with higher-end food containers. Qin Wei thought it was because the crew had more money, but Li Liang told her:

"It's because Shen Kai has joined the crew and treated everyone to dinner."

Qin Wei silently put down her chopsticks.

"Everyone in the crew got one meal box each. "

Qin Wei silently picked up her chopsticks again.

"Only Teacher Qiao had salad for dinner, so she didn't take any."

Qin Wei put down her chopsticks again.

"But other people in her team did eat."

Qin Wei wanted to throw her chopsticks at Li Liang’s head.

"Can't you speak in one go instead of pausing every sentence? Do you think my memory is too low that it will get stuck?”

Qin Wei closed the lid of the meal box.

"Take it away, return it or you guys can finish it, don't waste food. Do whatever you want, I won't eat it."

Li Liang vaguely felt that she was avoiding any favors, but also felt it was a pity not to eat it. So she tried persuading her one last time:

"Sis, this meal is quite expensive..."

"Ha, expensive? However expensive it is, am I short of some money? Take it away, I'm not happy to eat it..."

Qin Wei leaned against the sofa and turned her head away impatiently, waving her hand for Li Liang to leave quickly.

Li Liang obediently took the dinner away. As the door closed, only the lingering aroma of the uneaten food remained in the room.

Qin Wei took a deep breath. Ah, I'm so hungry...

There was no other snacks in the room except for some melon seeds. It was only 5:30 pm now. She didn't even eat enough during lunch...

Qin Wei picked up her phone to text Shen Qingqing—

【Qin Wei: Qingqing, have you had your dinner? What are you eating? Do you want to eat something else?】

【Qin Wei: Qingqing, where are you?】

No reply.

The past two days after Shen Qingqing came back, she booked a room for herself. Mainly because she had money for it, she also needed her own space and Qiao Sixiao said it wouldn't disturb Qin Wei’s rest.

It made sense for one to sleep more peacefully alone, but there was no woolen companion and it felt cold in her heart.

Now that Shen Qingqing didn't reply to her messages, she probably went to watch Shen Kai’s night scene shooting.

So Qin Wei went to Qiao Sixiao‘s room.

It was not surprising at all that Teacher Qiao was sitting on the sofa looking at the script. No matter if she had scenes to shoot or not, she would spend her rest time in the evenings reading the script.

The room was only lit by a floor lamp, making it quiet and cozy inside.

Qiao Sixiao saw her coming and sat back down on the sofa to read the script after she opened the door.

On the table, there was still an unopened vegetable salad box. f𝗿𝐞ewebno𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝐨m

"No need to hesitate, I left it for you. Go ahead and eat it."

Qiao Sixiao glanced at her while reading the script and pointed to the salad on the table.

Qin Wei felt a warmth in her eyes. She didn't expect that Teacher Qiao was even thinking of her, afraid that she might be hungry, and specially left dinner for her! But!!

"How did you know that I would come over to eat?"

Qin Wei said while sitting down and starting to add the yogurt mint sauce herself.

It was the light and refreshing flavor that she liked!

It was left for her.

"Tonight, Shen Kai treated the whole crew to dinner, with chicken legs, pasta, garlic butter prawns and cream soup that anyone could easily exceed their calorie limit after a few bites. Eating that during lunch could still burn off most of the calories, but having it for dinner..."

Qiao Sixiao said while taking the time to glance at her,

"Unless you can resist temptation, otherwise you won't have any dinner. You definitely wouldn't bear to order takeout, and would choose to freeload off either me or Shen Qingqing. But Shen Qingqing isn't here today.

If you didn't come here, then just indulge yourself. It means I've judged you wrongly. Just fall amidst all that delicious food then!"

"Hmm, oh, yes, the calories are indeed too high. I can't possibly eat them since I'm still shooting and my figure is as important as my beauty."

Qin Wei lowered her head while eating, perfunctorily responding to her words, almost burying her face in the bowl.

Fortunately, the several times she moved the chopsticks, she didn't actually start eating. Mainly because she had too many concerns, but she really didn't expect it from this perspective.

How frightening, what if she unwittingly ate it just now? Qiao Sixiao would probably get angry with her for several days...

...

"She didn't eat it?"

Shen Kai had just returned from the set. After hearing it, he was a bit surprised. He had specially asked someone to pay attention to the dishes Qin Wei used to eat when she was in the Variety Show “Against the Wind", then selected the most expensive ones to make tonight’s dinner.

He treated so many people to dinner for the sole purpose of letting Qin Wei enjoy a good dinner without pressure.

But she didn't eat it in the end?

Was it because it was sent by him so she didn't eat it?

Or is she still the same as before, her dinners remained simple, and that all those dishes were just for her public image?

Shen Kai looked at the dishes on his plate—

Salmon, salami, some nuts, and toast.

This was what she used to eat, but she was pickier about not wanting to eat the bread crusts.

Hence, there would be more bread crusts left on his plate.

Ever since he started thinking about her, this was what he would eat for dinner every time.

Just what was the reason that made Qin Wei refuse to eat those dishes?

Shen Kai fell into confusion.

......

"I’ll return to the Imperial Capital to shoot a commercial two days later. Recently, besides this drama, there are no other schedules arranged for me to join any other crews. Mainly because He Hong doesn't want others to perceive me as a role stealer, so other productions have been pushed back. After shooting the commercial, I also have a public welfare event, and another..."

Qiao Sixiao casually told her own schedule arrangements, but before she could finish, Qin Wei interrupted:

"Whaaaat, you’re leaving me all by myself here? I wasn't afraid before but now Shen Kai is here, I'm scared..."

After hearing that, Qiao Sixiao looked at her disdainfully:

"Scared of what? In broad daylight what else can he do to you? Just continue shooting normally, and then get out of there quickly, isn't that simple?"

Qiao Sixiao needed to go earn money. Blocking someone's fortune was impolite too.

"Wuuu..."

But what about myself? So pitiful, weak and helpless.

Qiao Sixiao tried to comfort her:

"Haven't you two split up already? Maintain a strong attitude and treat him coldly. He is such a self-conceited man, he definitely wouldn't demean himself to curry favor with you."

After saying that, Qin Wei became even unhappier, brows furrowed.

Qiao Sixiao leaned closer and asked her:

"Are you incapable of being fierce to others?"

Qin Wei shook her head.

"Then drink some liquor to recall how you get fierce with people."

Qiao Sixiao opened the cabinet next to her,

"I still have liquor here..."

"Are you out of your mind? Bringing liquor even when going on business trips..."

Qin Wei looked at her disapprovingly. She really took out a box of Johnnie Walker whiskey!!

"There are always boring or sleepless times."

Qiao Sixiao took out two bottles, opened the caps and passed one to her, then opened one bottle for herself as well:

"It's still early, in any case there's nothing to do, let's drink together."

It was only 6 pm...

Qin Wei: "......"

Qin Wei asked:

"Aren't you afraid... "

"Of what?"

"If you and I both drink too much, who's going to stay sober?"

Qiao Sixiao waved her hand dismissively and stuffed the opened whiskey bottle into her hand:

"Staying sober for what? It's not like we're having a drinking party. Just drink carefreely!"

"I won't drink, and you shouldn't either..."

Qin Wei took away the liquor, and snatched away the bottle in her hand as well,

"Drinking liquor is harmful, if you can avoid it then don't drink it. Don't you know how I behaved after drinking last time? Yet you're still making me drink. Are you addicted to inflicting harm?"

Saying that, she put away all the liquor back into the cabinet.

"So..."

Qiao Sixiao watched as she busied herself and made no attempts to take back the liquor that was snatched from her hand. Her gaze remained fixed on Qin Wei.

"Do you remember what happened that night?"
