Chapter 298

After seeing Qin Wei off in the elevator, the aunties felt sad for a while, but thinking that she would come back again later, they weren't as sad as before. They turned around and went to Aunt Zhou's home to crack melon seeds.

Sun Tiantian, who had just recovered from the shock, made sure He Hong had left through the monitor at the door before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"She's gone...scared me to death..."

She sat on the sofa and took out her cell phone from her pocket.

Her phone was almost out of battery, but the screen was still lit. The video call between Sun Tiantian and Qiao Sixiao had been on ever since they went downstairs.

It was just that a fan group leader wanted to secretly share Qin Wei's daily life with Qiao Sixiao, hoping to find some sweetness from it. She didn't expect to encounter the paparazzi first, and then He Hong showed up.

"Don't hang up first."

Hearing He Hong's voice coming from Sun Tiantian's side, Qiao Sixiao reminded Sun Tiantian through the earphones,

"Put the phone in your pocket. Don't care what I say to you. Just act naturally."

After all, he was an actor. While doing as told, Sun Tiantian didn't show any abnormality either.

Therefore, Qiao Sixiao could hear everything He Hong said in the living room.

It was just that when they were in the dressing room, He Hong closed the door. So Sun Tiantian didn't hear what they said inside either.

After about half an hour, Qin Wei came out with her makeup and clothes changed.

Without much stay, they all left.

Sun Tiantian charged her phone and then picked up the business card on the coffee table and said,

"Huanyi Entertainment... Teacher Qiao, this is your company's boss... What did she say to Qin Wei in the dressing room? Don't tell me she warned Qin Wei to stay away from you!"

Qiao Sixiao rolled his eyes at her:

"Keep your creative passion to yourself for now. Go check the surveillance in the dressing room. I want to know what they said."

Sun Tiantian spread her hands.

"Isn't it a bit weird to have surveillance installed in the dressing room? I don't know if you guys have it, but there really isn't any indoor surveillance at my home."

Qiao Sixiao sighed. It seemed that Sun Tiantian had no more valuable information to offer. He Hong definitely wouldn't notify her about her plans. So she only knew that He Hong was going to take Qin Wei to a banquet. When she asked the company, the reply was that it was He Hong's "personal schedule." So where exactly they were going was unclear for now.

"Alright, I gotta get back to work. Thanks for your help...

Take the opportunity He Hong gave you. She owes you a favor, and you deserve it."

...

When Qin Wei got on the car, Su Yang had already been sitting inside for a long time. He didn't put away his phone until he saw them coming.

He Hong sat in the passenger seat, closed the door, and told the driver to leave. She then said to Su Yang and Qin Wei,

"Just be smart later. Call whoever you need to call, toast whoever you need to toast. You must've attended weddings before, right? The ceremony where the bride and groom toast every guest one by one. Just think of it that way. You two try to be more tacit and show some CP feel to entertain them."

Su Yang looked at Qin Wei, then said to He Hong,

"Boss He, I don't drink. Qin Wei doesn't drink either... That's what I heard her telling Daniel on set."

"Leave the drinking to us. You two just pretend."

Li Yao said from the back row. Only then did Qin Wei notice that her team's cameraman, Little Chen, was also sitting in the back seat.

He didn't say a word for a long time, looking weak and humble.

Was this the colleague Li Yao mentioned?

The one who could drink a lot?

...

The car stopped at the entrance of a high-end hotel. The hotel manager came in person to open the car door and took them to the western restaurant on the top floor. When they entered, investors from various companies were already inside drinking and chatting freely.

When He Hong mentioned a wedding toast, Qin Wei first thought of the traditional round table banquet. She didn't expect it to be a cold buffet dinner party focused on socializing, with eating being secondary. Fortunately she had attended a similar celebration banquet in the southwest. Otherwise she would have panicked as soon as she entered.

Everyone's eyes fell on them. He Hong immediately put on a warm smile and chatted with the bosses present.

Li Yao also suddenly seemed like a different person, actively going over to greet brand owners he knew.

"Come on, Su Yang and Qin Wei. This is Han, the Asia Pacific manager of ChengGu Jewelry.

Old Han, no need to introduce these two. Our artist, Su Yang. And this young lady is Qin Wei..."

"Ms. Qin Wei, we've met before."

Mr. Han raised the red wine glass in his hand and signaled the waiter to also bring one for Qin Wei.

"You may not remember me. It was three or five years ago at a wine party. Your elegant look when drinking red wine left a deep impression that I can't forget till this day."

As he spoke, he took the red wine glass from the waiter's tray,

"Today I have the honor to ask Ms. Qin to have a drink with me?"

Qin Wei just smiled without answering.

He Hong said with a laugh,

"Drink we must. Let me take these two kids to meet some other bosses first. We'll sit down slowly and drink later. They don't have great alcohol tolerance. I'll drink that glass for you first..."

As she spoke, she was about to take the red wine, but Mr. Han shrank back his hand.

He Hong's face also soured a little, but she couldn't make a scene. Mr. Han was just a manager, but behind him was the Tianshi Group. This Mr. Han was clearly pretending to have power he didn't.

But for this banquet, they were the ones asking a favor. He Hong would not easily tear faces with others in the business world.

The two sides were caught in an awkward situation.

"Sure."

Qin Wei took the wine glass with a bright smile looking at the manager from ChengGu Jewelry,

"Drinking is my sincerity. So Mr. Han, what's yours?"

Mr. Han was in no hurry to respond. Instead, he acted nonchalant,

"Ms. Qin can drink or not drink as she likes."

"Cheers."

Qin Wei clinked glasses with him, then showed him her glass,

"I drank it. Mr. Han, please feel free."

Mr. Han's expression eased back to how it was initially. Laughing, he said to He Hong,

"I was just joking earlier. Ms. Qin actually finished the drink. You see, Ms. Qin still has that refreshing personality! No wonder our group's Tianshi favored her to be the spokesperson. We were right to choose her!

Boss He, please don't worry. The fine jewelry provided by ChengGu for 'Planet Burn' before will continue to be supplied. Not just that, our latest 'Wizard Spirit' collection also matches the drama style, so it will be a priority to use it in your show as featured jewelry representing the North.

As he spoke, Mr. Han drank the wine in his glass. Similarly holding it up to show Qin Wei, he said in a very polite tone,

"Please don't blame me, Ms. Qin. Cooperation requires some probing. I saw your sincerity. Our support at ChengGu remains the same. Everyone, please be assured."

After Mr. Han left, Qin Wei frowned. Su Yang supported her and whispered,

"You can't drink, right? Why pretend to be strong? Tell him you can't drink, that you're fatally allergic to alcohol!"

"Fatally allergic to alcohol? Su Yang, aren't you good at reading people? Didn't you hear what he meant? He didn't give me a chance to make excuses."

Qin Wei gently pushed him away and followed He Hong and Li Yao to keep socializing with others.
