Chapter 116

Li Yao ran over in a flutter, waited for Qin Wei for a long time at the agreed place, and came over to find that she was stopped by fans.

"Sorry, sorry..."

Li Yao went forward, took a breath and said,

"Qin Wei still has work to do later, we have to go now."

The fans didn't cling on stubbornly either, just asking for a group photo, and then saw Qin Wei off.

Qin Wei walked a few steps, and suddenly stopped.

Li Yao stopped with her:

"Little ancestor, what's wrong?"

Looking back, the fans were still standing there watching her. Seeing her look back, they even waved to her.

Qin Wei muttered to herself:

"No, that won't work."

Li Yao was confused:

"What won't work?"

Qin Wei went back again, and said to Li Yao:

"There are several children among them who came from other places. They said they have to take a plane or high-speed rail to go back tonight. Li Yao, call a car to take them to the airport and stations. It’s so late, it’s not easy to get a taxi here, unsafe."

...

At midnight, Li Yao finally sat back in her own car, exhausted.

It was very late, and there were no taxis by the roadside because she had tried. It was also very difficult to get a car on the software. The nearest subway station was a half-hour walk away. Even if she got there, it would be closed and she couldn't get on. At worst, she might even miss the flight.

In the end, she let the crew’s car take them away. Qin Wei exhorted them again and again to tell Li Yao when they arrived, to ensure the safety of each person.

Li Yao sat in the car and rested for a while, then started the car, saying:

"If you don't care about them, you don't know how many people will go home late at night.

You never would have cared before, you didn't even want to talk to fans...

I said you don't need to wrap yourself up so tightly..."

No one paid any attention to her. Through the rearview mirror, Li Yao saw her sitting in the seat and had fallen asleep.

Quietly, breathing slowly and evenly. When not being silly, she really looked cold, very much like before.

I don't know why this unlucky girl is so silly now.

Li Yao sighed. It’s also good now. Maybe the cold, icy protective color was what she was like before?

Forget it, what's the point of examining this? "Sleep, it’s been tiring from morning till night."

...

When Li Yao woke her up, Qin Wei was still in the car. She looked out the window—

"This is not my house either??"

And if she didn't remember wrong, she had been to this place before.

Li Yao got out to open the car door for her:

"Get out, it's time to work."

Qin Wei: "???"

Qin Wei exclaimed:

"It's two or three in the morning, bro! Have some humanity!"

Li Yao tapped open the schedule on his phone:

"Tomorrow you have to shoot with your counterpart Qiao Sixiao. At six you have to leave to catch a plane. When you get back you have to go back to the studio for training. The only time to shoot the commercial is now. Hurry up! After shooting we still have to go to the airport!"

Li Yao had mentioned shooting the commercial before, but she had forgotten in the busy last two days without rest.

And she didn't expect Qiao Sixiao was serious about it...

"Although..."

"Get out!"

Li Yao ruthlessly pulled her out of the car.

Standing in the elevator, Qin Wei said to Li Yao:

"Qiao Sixiao is my counterpart."

Li Yao looked puzzled:

"I know, what's wrong?"

She pouted:

"A counterpart, and you let me follow her without worry?"

Li Yao patted her shoulder:

"I'm not not going. Don't worry!"

Qin Wei rolled her eyes:

"A counterpart, aren't you afraid she'll harm me?"

Li Yao was a little surprised:

"Huh? You have this kind of awareness now? Aren't you quite open-minded?"

"...Is that the point?"

"Rest assured. If you two could go out together to clean up fans before, could she have a taste of the sweetness with you and still harm you?

We’re the same. We don't care about counterparts. If interests are aligned, then we're friends."

When Li Yao finished speaking, the elevator door had opened. The two of them walked out, and Li Yao took her to the studio where Xu Mingchuan was already waiting for her.

"Mr. Xu? Long time no see!" When Qin Wei saw Xu Mingchuan, she took the initiative to wave and greet him. After all, he was the current boss. She had to take the initiative to show enthusiasm when meeting.

Xu Mingchuan was somewhat at a loss. He lowered his head unconsciously and touched his nose, then showed a smile and nodded to her:

"Came to see you on site. Your schedule has been full recently, it must have been tiring for you."

"Not tiring. Getting paid to work is what I should do."

Qin Wei replied,

"By the way, about school. This semester is almost over too. You still remember my reinstatement paperwork, right..."

Her heart was still set on retiring from the industry. She was afraid Xu Mingchuan didn't take it seriously.

Xu Mingchuan nodded:

"Don't worry, I contacted the school teacher the day before yesterday. I asked him about the situation. He said handling the reinstatement paperwork is still very simple, it's just... um..."

He hesitated to continue. Qin Wei also became nervous:

"What...can't be done?"

"Or you retake the college entrance exam?"

Qin Wei: "??? The gaokao???"

Xu Mingchuan didn't deny it:

"Or you can study abroad too."

"Why is that?"

Hearing him hesitate and mumble, Qin Wei became afraid and anxious.

"It's true. Their year was the last before the reforms. If she goes back to school, she'll probably regret it...

Let's talk about it later. When she does regret it, maybe she'll come back."

...

The brand side only required shooting some short clips. They needed looks more than acting skills. So Qin Wei followed the director's on-site guidance for the shoot. Everything went quite smoothly.

After a full two hours of shooting, when the director confirmed completion, the entire crew could finally wrap up.

After changing clothes and coming out again, Xu Mingchuan was still waiting for her outside.

He glanced at his watch:

"Let's go. It's been a tiring day. You and Li Yao rest in the car. I'll drive and take you to the airport."

Seeing Li Yao didn't object, Qin Wei didn't say anything either. She followed the two of them away from the studio. At this point she felt her soul had left her body from fatigue. As a result, Xu Mingchuan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Qin Wei didn't notice and bumped into his back.

This woke her up completely.

Qin Wei took half a step back, looked up and saw Shen Kai standing right in front of Xu Mingchuan. She swallowed, then looked at the time again:

"Half past five!"

Why could she run into this person at this time and place???

Shen Kai glanced at Qin Wei behind him and said bluntly, "I have something to say to you."

Xu Mingchuan stood still, without the slightest intention of giving way:

"Sorry, no time."
