The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 269

Brother Feng had seen this woman before, Shen Qingqing, who was also an actress. They had worked together on other crews in the past. He remembered her mainly because she was good-looking.

Although they didn't really know each other, Brother Feng was very touched at this moment. It seemed that she also saw Qin Wei as an enemy in private and wanted to take Qin Wei down using this incident.

The enemy's enemy is a friend, not to mention this friend wanted to help her!

Brother Feng knew Shen Qingqing had her own motives, but he still looked at her gratefully and pointed at her to plead his case.

Brother Feng's voice trembled, sounding very aggrieved:

"Teacher Shen, Qin Wei really kicked me. You have to testify for me!"

Shen Qingqing nodded sincerely:

"Yes, Qin Wei kicked him twice. I have video evidence right here. It's just..."

Shen Qingqing said as she opened the video and paused it at the part where Qin Wei kicked him:

"This first kick doesn't look good on camera at all."

Qin Wei stared at the video, then rewinded it back five seconds and watched it again:

"That's called a front kick. Not cool but very practical!"

Brother Feng: "Huh?"

Shen Qingqing's brows furrowed slightly, then she dragged the video progress bar further until the part where Qin Wei kicked the other person down again, and showed a satisfied expression:

"Your roundhouse kick was executed very well, but I suggest you follow up with a back kick, combination kick, that would be even cooler!"

Qin Wei watched it again, then pointed out to Shen Qingqing:

"The back kick after a roundhouse looks cool, but the premise is that the opponent doesn't go down after the first kick! My kick knocked him down, so a back kick would seem like I was showing off my skills."

Shen Qingqing watched it again and agreed:

"You're right, it would make people feel like it was overdoing things. Hmm...I guess this works too..."

Brother Feng: "Teacher Shen?"

Shen Qingqing came back to her senses: "Oh, what?"

Brother Feng carefully asked:

"Whose side are you actually on?"

"Oh, sorry, I forgot about you."

Shen Qingqing told the security guard:

"Help him call the police. I have the full evidence here recorded. How he threatened and bullied the crew members, and how Qin Wei courageously stood up for them, it's all here...

Not only should this be submitted to the police as evidence, it should also be uploaded online. I booked some outdoor LED screens at the studio city, play this video on repeat every day."

Qin Wei rubbed her eyebrows:

"Let's skip that...I don't think my facial expressions were handled very well..."

"Then next time."

Shen Qingqing didn't insist. She handed her phone to the security guard, then instructed him:

"Whether or not you want to call the police, I don't care. Just return this spare phone to my assistant when you're done with it. But I don't want to see him at this studio again. If I see him here filming anything next time, you two can forget about keeping your jobs too, got it?"

The two security guards nodded profusely, then took Brother Feng away.

All of this happened so suddenly and ended just as abruptly that Li Yan was still processing it.

Up until the last moment, he still couldn't quite tell who was friend or foe.

"Teacher Qin...what exactly is going on here..."

Shen Qingqing walked over unhurriedly, explaining rather impatiently:

"I saw you getting bullied. Weiwei said she couldn't just stand by and watch. I told her to get security but she said there was no time, this wasn't the first time, she had to hit back to make herself feel better. I lost sight of her for a second and she went ahead beating the guy up.

Luckily, under China's laws, she was standing up for you so it doesn't count as unlawful. I contacted security just in case we couldn't explain things clearly. I recorded a video while I was at it...

But who are you anyway? Why did you need Qin Wei's protection? What makes you so special?"

"I...I'm nobody..."

Li Yan also felt very guilty and scratched his head awkwardly.

"He's a crew member of my team."

Li Yan looked at Qin Wei in disbelief, but she appeared very calm.

"I asked Director Yao if your job was stable. He said not really. So I wanted to invite you over after we wrapped up filming. If you're willing, come work with me in the future. You can continue pursuing your hobbies without affecting your normal job. Think about it."

The sudden invitation left Li Yan at a loss for words for quite a while.

Shen Qingqing ran out of patience waiting:

"Free cake falling from the sky and you don't even know to catch it, how stupid...

Ugh, this is so annoying! Youyou is going to complain we took too long. Let's get going!"

Shen Qingqing started pushing Qin Wei to leave. Qin Wei looked back at Li Yan again.

Li Yan calmed himself down and jogged to catch up with Qin Wei:

"Teacher Qin, how long is the internship period?" fr𝚎𝗲𝐰ebnov𝐞𝐥.𝐜o𝗺

Qin Wei smiled. "Go find Li Liang. She'll take you to HR. However many months it's supposed to be."

"Got it!"

...

Shen Qingqing took Qin Wei to the parking garage and got into a matte black sports car. She started the engine and apologized to Qin Wei as she drove:

"I know this car looks lame. Can't be helped, it's my dad's car. It reflects the tastes of middle-aged men. The hot pot place isn't far. We won't be in this old thing for long..."

Qin Wei asked carefully:

"Uh...what kind of dad?"

Shen Qingqing was silent for a bit and sighed:

"Oh please keep this confidential. This car belongs to my sugar daddy. I had no choice, gotta make a living in this industry you know...nothing strange about having a sugar daddy in our circle~"

Qin Wei hesitated to speak a few times.

Shen Qingqing held in her laugh before finally bursting into laughter:

"Just kidding! Of course it's my dad's car, married to my mom and fathered me and all that.

I only have eyes for my Brother Kai. I could never sell myself to middle-aged rich men for money."

Qin Wei leaned against the window and rubbed her eyebrows:

"Shen Qingqing you're too much. You managed to fit two phrases I hate the most into one sentence."

Shen Qingqing pouted unhappily and mumbled:

"But Brother Kai is so handsome..."

Qin Wei casually changed the subject. She knew very clearly that once Shen Qingqing started talking about Shen Kai, there would be no end to it. It was easier to shut her up than to make her stop, so before Shen Qingqing could get started, Qin Wei asked:

"Shen Qingqing how much did your dad's car cost?"

Shen Qingqing thought for a bit:

"Around 3 million+ I think..."

"Oh, not too bad then..."

Qin Wei weighed the price of the car against her current net worth and figured she could afford to buy it.

...

The car stopped in a relatively prosperous area near a hot pot restaurant. Shen Qingqing parked next to the hot pot place they had a private room booked at, then went in with Qin Wei.

Pushing the door open, Sun Tiantian and Youyou were sitting together happily chatting away as expected.

"Sis you're here! I missed you so much!"

Youyou got up and hugged Qin Wei, then tilted her head and asked Shen Qingqing:

"Why did you take so long? Is your dad's Bugatti not fast enough?"

Shen Qingqing gave her an annoyed look upon hearing her question. She pulled out a chair to sit before answering:

"Your sis was filming with Su Yang today but kept missing her cues. They had to redo several takes before getting one she was happy with.

That itself was annoying enough. Then after walking just a few steps outside, she got into a fight with someone. What a troublemaker, right? No wonder Teacher Qiao yells at her sometimes, I totally get it now..."

"Even with a sports car, there's still the speed limit to follow. It wasn't my dad's stupid car's fault, or mine!"

Youyou sighed without any sense of urgency. She let go of Qin Wei and had her sit down, then continued speaking to Shen Qingqing:

"Your dad loves that car so much, yet you call it stupid when he lets you borrow it. And if you scratch or dent it while parked on the streets, your dad will scold you again, and you can't afford to pay for repairs either. Aren't you just trying to annoy him?"

Shen Qingqing couldn't be bothered to explain. She went over to discuss menu options with Sun Tiantian.

Qin Wei whispered to Youyou:

"Pardon my ignorance, I only know a few sports car brands. Her Bugatti costs 3 million+? Wouldn't Shen Qingqing still be able to afford repairs?"

Youyou: "Did she miss a zero... Euros?"
