My Identities Were All Exposed After I Was Pampered by Everyone at My Grandfather’s House!
Chapter 239 - 239 Ulterior Motive239 Ulterior Motive
Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Ze.
Cheng Yang wouldn’t have come to the Qiao residence and made such a direct offer to Qiao Yue without Qiao Ze’s urging.
Qiao Yue also knew that Qiao Ze should understand that she had no intention of joining the entertainment industry.
Why then did Qiao Ze bring Cheng Yang here? Or did Qiao Ze want her to take on this role?
Qiao Ze didn’t look at Qiao Yue, but at Cheng Yang. “Brother Yang, why don’t you introduce the script to Qiao Yue?”
Cheng Yang nodded and handed the script to Qiao Yue.
“We are making a 4A, large production fantasy movie. We’ve bought the copyright of a recently popular fantasy game and adapted the story from the game.” Cheng Yang continued with the introduction.
Qiao Yue read the script very quickly. It was a rather boring fantasy movie. It was nothing more than a story about a young man who went down the mountain to experience the world and accidentally found a magic weapon. He then met some martial arts experts in the milieu, and they saved the world together.
It was just a shell put over a game IP, nothing new.
Qiao Yue was even more curious. From Qiao Ze’s words, did he want her to take part in this movie?
But why?
“Fifth young master, your role is a female swordsman disguised as a man…” Cheng Yang’s voice trailed off.
Qiao Yue almost spat out the water she had just drunk. Qiao Jing, who sat beside her, also frowned and looked at Cheng Yang.
Why were people rushing over to force her to be a woman after they watched her dance?
“Don’t worry. This role doesn’t have many scenes, but they are outstanding.”
Cheng Yang went on and on about how much this character loved to serve justice and how amazing she was, but Qiao Yue only felt like dozing off.
“Alright, Brother Yang. My fifth brother is getting a little sleepy. I think I’ll take him out for a walk to overcome the food coma. I’ll also tell him more about this role.”
Cheng Yang nodded and gave way to the two.
Qiao Jing wanted to follow them out but was stopped by Qiao Yue.
Qiao Ze and Qiao Yue strolled in the garden behind the house.
It was already the dead of winter, and flowers in the garden had long since withered, except for the plum blossoms, pines, and cypresses.
“Third brother, you left with second uncle the other day. I thought you’ll never come back.” Qiao Yue was the first to speak.
Qiao Ze smiled bitterly. “For the sake of our plan, I had to first stabilize my father.”
Qiao Ze seemed to have lost weight since they last met a few days ago.
“How is second uncle?” Qiao Yue asked.
“He still has some properties in the city, so he won’t starve to death for the time being. But someone like my father will definitely do something soon.”
Qiao Yue sighed. “If second uncle gave up those unsavory businesses and focused on managing his properties, he can live the rest of his life in peace.”
Qiao Ze bit his lower lip and smiled bitterly. “I wish my father did that, but…”
The two of them remained silent for a while.
“What’s up with this movie? Does second brother want me to take on the role? Will it help our operation?” Qiao Yue asked.
“Fifth brother, do you know who’s the mastermind behind AT?”
Of course, Qiao Yue knew the mastermind behind AT. It was the sanctimonious member of parliament, Andy.
“I found out that Cheng Yang seems to be connected to them, so I was thinking that maybe you could use this to find out more about AT.”
Qiao Yue frowned. “Why does third brother think that I’m interested in AT?”
Qiao Ze looked at Qiao Yue. “Mahad, AT and my father are somehow in cahoots. Although my father plays only a small part, AT is very strong financially and they have done a lot of illegal things.”
Qiao Yue understood what Qiao Ze meant.
Qiao Ze wanted to completely dash his father’s hopes.
Although the Qiao family was an aristocratic family in C-Country, it was still just a family. The Qiao family had not been involved in the government for years.
But behind AT was a political figure of D-Country. If they were to get rid of AT, they would have to go up against some higher power.
The Qiao family was still too weak to go up against such powers. Qiao Yue could use KA to punish them financially, but it would be as useful as a chocolate teapot.
Qiao Yue shook her head. “It will be difficult.”
Qiao Ze’s heart sank a little when he heard this. He thought that his fifth brother was much more powerful than he seemed. But it looked like even Qiao Yue couldn’t defeat AT.
“However, it’s still worth a look.”
