Chapter 152 Red Carpet King
Chapter 152 Red Carpet King
Looking at Xu Fang's refreshing back, Qin Xi's smiling face, which was almost stiff, finally relaxed. No one noticed that her eyes were even colder than the cold wind today.
"Sister Xi, did you just agree to his request? Is this Mr. Xu reliable?"
"Oh? How did you know he is unreliable?" Qin Xi looked at Lili with interest.
"Didn't you say it yourself, Sister Xi? A person who is perfect and considerate to you in every way is most likely a trap!"
"Puchi..." Qin Xi laughed.
"Our Lili is really smart. She applies what she has learned and draws inferences from it."
Lili was even more confused, "If that's the case, then why did you agree to it?"
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
"But we are human beings. Is it really okay to seek the skin of a tiger?"
Lili had actually seen that Qin Xi hated Xu Fang a long time ago, but she had been pretending to be nice to him and dealing with him from a distance. Xu Fang was a person of such status, and standing there was her capital. Lili was really afraid that Qin Xi would accidentally piss off Xu Fang, and the consequences would be disastrous.
"Hmph" Qin Xi sneered.
"Is it a ferocious tiger or a sick cat? How can we know if we don't try? Besides, even if it is a ferocious tiger, I have the ability to poke out its eyes and pull out its claws!"
Tear off his hypocritical face of false benevolence and righteousness, and expose his ugly face that is deeply rooted in his bones to the public!
"Okay, don't worry, I know what's going on. Just trust me completely like you always did~"
Qin Xi touched Lili's head and threw a small gift box to her.
"You can play with it. If you like it, wear it. If you don't like it, sell it."
Lili took it and saw that it was a box from the high-end brand C. When she opened it, she found a classic diamond necklace from C. Lili was quite knowledgeable about fashion brands. Although this one was expensive, it was very popular and had been out of stock for a long time.
"This this?"
Qin Xi smiled gently, "This is the birthday present Xu Fang gave me before he left. He said that my birthday is in half a month, and he couldn't make it in time because of something else at his company, so he prepared the gift in advance."
Lili hesitated and said, "He... is thoughtful, and this gift is quite valuable."
Qin Xi casually hooked the chain on her fingertips and shook her head. "To him, it's just a drop in the bucket. If he really wanted to, why would he choose a classic style that everyone else said? He just doesn't want to spend time thinking about it. I can guarantee that he definitely didn't buy this chain himself!"
She knew Xu Fang too well. He liked to pretend to be affectionate, but in fact he was a sophisticated egoist. If it wasn't profitable, he wouldn't even be willing to pluck a hair.
If he really wanted to give her a birthday present, why didn't he give it to her right away? He had to wait until Qin Xi agreed to take on his project before the gift came.
He was just hoping that a young and inexperienced girl would take advantage of him and work harder for him.
Qin Xi held the chain in front of her with a playful look, "Look, Lili, this chain is made of 18K gold and inlaid with diamonds. It's just a product packaged under the brand effect. The moment you get it, it has already begun to depreciate."
But since Xu Fang likes to spend this insignificant money on her, Qin Xi doesn't need to pretend to be noble and refuse. Instead, accepting it all will make him feel more at ease.
To be honest, Xu Fang has invested a lot in her during these visits, but has not seen any return yet. Perhaps Xu Fang feels that the bigger the goal, the longer it takes to catch a bigger fish.
Qin Xi really wanted to see with her own eyes what expression Xu Fang would have when his wish was dashed.
-
The filming of "It's You" is nearing completion. This drama has the shortest shooting time and is also the most relaxing and enjoyable one Qin Xi has ever filmed since she started her career.
But because of one person, her feelings about this play became complicated. Since Xu Fang came to visit the set, Qin Xi keenly felt that Gu Chenxing became more silent, and his resentment emerged more frequently.
Qin Xi knew that Gu Chenxing had probably misunderstood something, but this might not be a bad thing for her, as it might save her a lot of energy. After all, the two of them were not from the same world. She just didn't know whether the color she had painted on Gu Chenxing was good or bad for him.
But this is not important to Qin Xi, because she has a strong premonition that after the promotion period of "It's You", she and Gu Chenxing will probably have no more interactions.
Qin Xi's last scene was her wearing a gorgeous and noble dress and appearing on the red carpet. The media broadcast the whole process live, and Jiang Mei was the talk of the town.
But it was also during this live broadcast that Jiang Mei's father made a scene on the red carpet. In front of all the media, he poured red wine all over Jiang Mei's head and face, and slapped her in the face. Jiang Mei could no longer bear it and angrily scolded her father. This farce caused Jiang Mei to fall from the altar overnight, from a popular top actress to a street rat who was disrespectful to her elders and parents.
For the role of Jiang Mei's father, under Qin Xi's strong recommendation, the crew invited Yin Xiaoxiao's father in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to guest star.
As soon as Dad arrived at the crew, Qin Xi rushed to pick him up.
"Dad!" Qin Xi greeted with a smile.
Dad looked at Qin Xi jumping around, and her sweet smiling face overlapped with Yin Xiaoxiao a few years ago.
The old man sighed, shook his head and smiled, "It's true that every generation has its own talent. It's only been a few years, and the young and stubborn girl back then has become a mainstay in the circle now. She can even introduce me to some resources!"
Qin Xi held his father's arm and said, "What do you mean by mainstay? An old actor like you is the mainstay! If you compliment me again, I will be flattered!"
"How could Xiaoxiao forget her father? Ever since [Legend of the Heroes], I have always wanted to have a chance to work together again. When I saw Jiang Mei's father this time, the first person I thought of was you!"
Dad: “???”
This stupid, evil, and evil vampire father who betrayed his daughter thought of me? Is this a compliment?
"I thought that only you could calm me down. At that time, Yin Xiaoxiao was completely controlled by you. This time, I have to rely on you to make Jiang Mei suffer!"
Humph, Daddy feels a lot better. I haven't seen this girl for a few years, and her talking skills have improved!
In order to create a strong sense of contrast for this scene, the crew specially prepared a super grand bright red dress for Jiang Mei, and also instructed Yin Yiren to create a "red carpet queen" look for Qin Xi that would outshine all the other beauties.
In this way, Jiang Mei, who was beaten and splashed with wine later, would feel more broken, making the audience feel more empathetic and feel sorry for her from the bottom of their hearts.
The final effect lived up to everyone's expectations. Qin Xi is nearly 1.7 meters tall, and with her super high platform high heels, her bright and gorgeous look, and her big black wavy hair, she completely supported the huge puffy skirt.
As soon as Qin Xi appeared on the stage, she was the "king of the red carpet"!
