Even though she didnât mention a name, Lu Weixi, who was sitting next to Yu Sixing, heard the conversation clearly.
Xiang Yirou actually dares to bring up Qin Zhiyou! She dares to bring up Qin Zhiyouâs affairs! This comment by her caught Yu Sixing off guard, and he promptly turned his head to look at Lu Weixi.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Others might not know, but he and He Weiyou were acutely aware that, at least for now, Lu Weixi was his weak spot. He was afraid of his wife running away, yet Xiang Yirou dared to bring up Qin Zhiyouâs affairs in front of Lu Weixi. Was she seeking death?
In fact, Xiang Yirou was feeling a bit provocative. She was well aware that Qin Zhiyou was favoring the woman in front of her right now, and she herself belonged to a good family background, unlike others in the industry, she really had a feeling of a rich second generation.
She was somewhat defiant in her heart, with a bit of a spectatorâs mentality.
So what if Qin Zhiyou is good to you now? Heâs not divorced yet, heâll never be able to marry you. In the future, your end may be even more tragic than Liu Yiyiâs. Youâre just one of his many exes, it doesnât amount to anything.
âSisââdonât be upset, heâs not that kind of person,â Yu Sixing hurriedly whispered in explanation.
Then, he turned his head, looking sharply at Xiang Yirou: âYou dare to offend with your sloppy acting? Youâve been in this industry for so many years, producing mediocre performances, and you still dare to make excuses? As an investor in this film, Iâm the one paying. If you donât want to act, or youâre not good enough, there are plenty of others willing to take it.â
Since her debut, Xiang Yirouâs career had been relatively smooth. Even after Qin Zhiyou stopped supporting her, she used the resources he gave her to shine for a few years. Plus, her acting skills were somewhat passable among the newbies. She was also pleasing to look at, neither male nor female fans disliked her, hence she gained a lot of attention.
One could say that whenever she went for collaboration or script discussions, there were always plenty of people begging her. This wasnât her first film either. Of course, this was her first time collaborating with such a prestigious director, so she had cleared her schedule and prepared sincerely.
Who would have thought that halfway in Xue Feifei would emerge! Even though Feifei was still an eighteen-liner, she could sense that this girl was attractive and talented. If someone supports her in the future, she could achieve minor success.
And now here came Yu Sixing and Lu Weixi. It was clear that Yu Sixing wasnât helping anyone, merely surveying the work. And yet, he couldnât tolerate any criticism of Lu Weixi.
It appeared, this woman was either highly valued by Qin Zhiyou, or she had a hard backbone.
But regardless of which it was, if she could get Yu Sixing to defend her like this, she must be someone of considerable influence.
Something that made Xiang Yirou smarter than Liu Yiyi was that in situations where she knew she was out-matched, she would grit her teeth and apologize even if it hurt: âIâm sorry, Mr. Yu, itâs my fault today. Iâll make sure to prepare myself better next time.â
She did keep a bit of her cleverness, firstly by not acknowledging her error to Lu Weixi, and secondly, she didnât want to clear her relationship with Qin Zhiyou, nor did she admit that her acting was a problem. She just said she was unprepared.
Yu Sixing didnât directly accept her apology, but only said: âIâve only been here for a day, and Iâve already heard rumors of discord in the cast. Then comes a group scene with various shortcomings. I can invest more, but money doesnât grow on trees. Itâs hard for me to agree under these circumstances.â
