After Qiao Xi got off the stage, she looked meaningfully at Qiao Rou, then turned around and left.
Qiao Rou’s heart skipped a beat.
“Brother Moling, it turns out that Mr. Fan is the one who cheated. I misunderstood Sister. I hope Sister doesn’t blame me…”
A trace of surprise flashed past Gu Moling’s eyes, but he thought in his heart that Rou Rou was probably worried that Qiao Xi would go astray and this matter shouldn’t be blamed on her.
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll go tell Qiao Xi that you didn’t do it on purpose. She definitely won’t blame you.”
…
Outside the venue.
Sitting in the car, Gu Zheng’s lips curled up slightly.
Song Shiyu looked at Gu Zheng in confusion. Young Madam was performing so well. Why didn’t the president react at all?
Assistant Song felt that he should do something.
He probed, “President, Young Madam is about to come out. If you don’t say anything, you’ll seem too cold and distant. Try praising Young Madam and she’ll like you more.”
Gu Zheng looked up at him quietly.
Song Shiyu was tireless. “That Lu Yan is not as rich or as handsome as you are. Why was he able to chat with Young Madam so intimately on their first meeting? It’s because he knows how to sweet-talk. Don’t let him snatch Madam away. You must learn to be gentle!”
Lu Yan?
Gu Zheng frowned. Why did Qiao Xi want to chat with Lu Yan?
It was only her first time meeting Lu Yan, so she shouldn’t be so familiar with him.
But Song Shiyu was right. Lu Yan was indeed not to be taken lightly.
His eyes narrowed, and his aura grew cold.
At this moment, Qiao Xi came out from the entrance of the venue and walked straight toward Gu Zheng.
She quickly got into the car.
Song Shiyu cleared his throat immediately and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Gu Zheng remained calm and collected. “I heard the poetry you translated, but there’s one word that isn’t too accurate. If it was translated into ‘undying love’, it would be even more appropriate.”
Song Shiyu: “…”
Just as he was speechless, Qiao Xi suddenly said with a face full of excitement, “Gu Zheng, you’re simply too outstanding. I also felt that it was a bit inappropriate. It would be even more smooth if it was ‘until death do us part’!”
Gu Zheng repeated, “Until death do us part.”
Song Shiyu’s legs gave way and the car shook violently.
Damn!
The president’s words were so refreshing!
Qiao Xi had a surprised expression. “Gu Zheng, did I hear wrongly?”
Gu Zheng’s expression was calm as he remained silent.
Qiao Xi thought that she had misheard, so she didn’t ask further.
Song Shiyu stole a glance at Gu Zheng and noticed that his cheeks were red and his eyes were slightly evasive.
What was going on?
Was the president shy?
With his domineering personality, shouldn’t he have pulled Young Madam into his embrace and given her a French kiss?
Gu Zheng took out his phone and sent Zhou Guanjin a message. Then, he closed his eyes quietly.
A moment later, Qiao Xi’s phone rang.
Zhou Guanjin probed. [Junior, they’re about to go through casting for the script you wrote previously. You have to go and check it out!”
Qiao Xi was slightly surprised. [That’s too fast! Didn’t you say it would take a long time?]
Previously, when Qiao Xi had nothing better to do, she wrote a script and tossed it to a very famous film company. They were very optimistic about her script, but there were too many big-name screenwriters, so it was impossible for them to use a novice scriptwriter’s script. Hence, they said it would take three years.
But now, they suddenly announced that they would be starting the casting process?
Zhou Guanjin: “…”
The big boss had personally spoken. How could he dare to delay?
Furthermore, the script that Qiao Xi wrote was really exciting. The famous director, Director Zhang, already had his eye on it. The company decided to use this script in advance and immediately announced the casting.
There was another reason why Zhou Guanjin wanted Qiao Xi to watch the casting.
[Junior, you haven’t met Senior yet. Coincidentally, Senior will be going for the audition this time. You should meet him too.]
Zhou Guanjin had told her many times to meet Senior.
Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment before finally agreeing.
Why did Senior want to watch the casting? Was he also a member of the film company?
There was another possibility—Senior was a famous actor in the entertainment industry, rich and powerful.
After hanging up, Qiao Xi realized that this wasn’t the way home, so she looked at the man beside her. “Gu Zheng, where are we going?”
Gu Zheng slowly opened his eyes. “I’ll take you somewhere.”
Song Shiyu drove the car to a large shopping mall. Gu Zheng took her to a jewelry store and said casually, “Mrs. Gu, you won the competition today. As your husband, I have to celebrate your win for you.”
In front of her was a set of jewelry, a diamond necklace, ruby earrings, and a diamond ring. All of them were exquisite and expensive.
