The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 301

“Li Yao, talk.”

Qiao Sixiao directly ignored Su Yang and continued to question Li Yao.

Just for fun, she also pinched Qin Wei’s face.

Su Yang was ignored, but he didn't give up. Before Li Yao could say anything, he was already expressing his dissatisfaction:

"She said she doesn't drink alcohol. When she got together with colleagues from the crew, they would have a small drink, but Qin Wei would always say she doesn't drink, I still remember how righteous she sounded. But today she suddenly became a different person, I can understand being forced to drink the first cup, but what happened after that..."

However, the more he talked, the uglier Qiao Sixiao's expression became.

Other than Qin Wei, Li Yao was the most adept at reading Qiao Sixiao's expressions. Ever since he met Qiao Sixiao, he had never seen her so unhappy. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and try to mediate:

"Su Yang drank too much...and is not in a good mood either. Teacher Qiao, don't take it to heart..."

"I don't drink, that's my principle!"

Su Yang seemed particularly stubborn on this issue.

"It's because it's a principle that I can't hold a glass at the banquet and keep calling them 'Boss', 'President Chen', 'President Li' while smiling and toasting them!"

"What's wrong with having some self-respect?!"

"You have to have some basic principles, right?!"

"Even if this batch of investment doesn't work out, there will be a next batch. If the next batch doesn't work out either, sooner or later there will be one. An actor's job is to act well, flattering people and drinking with them, what is that?!"

Li Yao pushed up his glasses and pointed at Su Yang:

"What you just said went too far. Do you know who was there today? They were investors, attracting investment and financing is not as simple as you imagine. If Director He didn't bother with entertaining, would anyone dare invest? Everyone is waiting and watching, can't you see? If this batch doesn't work, even fewer will dare to invest next time.

There is no business without profit, do you think they are all philanthropists, joking with you?"

"Xiao Wang, stop the car."

Qiao Sixiao said,

"Su Yang, take your righteousness and get out."

The car stopped at the roadside, but Su Yang clearly wasn't convinced:

"Where did I say anything wrong? This circle is like muddy waters now, sticking to your principles is the only way to avoid contamination. Didn't you withdraw from the competition before, also because of principles?"

"Get out."

Xiao Wang had been with Qiao Sixiao for more than just one or two days, he could easily hear that she was getting impatient, so he silently got out and opened the rear door.

"I don't understand."

After Su Yang said that, he got up and out of the car.

Qiao Sixiao closed the car door, "Xiao Wang, drive."

The cameraman Xiao Chen turned his head, cheek against the window looking out, watching Su Yang standing in place, gradually disappearing into the night. He asked Li Yao in a small voice:

"Are we really just leaving him there alone? On such a dark windy night, a weak and delicate pretty boy like him, all alone...ah! Isn't it very dangerous? What if he runs into some drunkard harassing him! Robbery, sexual assault..."

"Stop!"

Li Yao patted Xiao Chen's face,

"Don't say anymore, he's an adult, and he didn't drink, he can get home!"

Maybe she was disturbed by the noise, the dead drunk Qin Wei frowned.

"If you two keep talking, get out too."

As soon as Qiao Sixiao finished speaking, Li Yao and Xiao Chen also became as quiet as dead dogs.

The whole ride was silent, only occasionally hearing Qin Wei grunting softly.

Qin Wei frowned, raising her paws flailing in the air.

Qiao Sixiao: "Do you...want to throw up?"

Qin Wei: "zZZ..."

Qiao Sixiao: "Don't throw up in my car..."

Qin Wei: "......"

Qiao Sixiao: "......"

The ride felt so long for everyone.

"Sis, we're here."

Xiao Wang stopped the car. The four people in the back, who didn't know when they fell asleep, woke up and reacted before realizing this was the hotel garage.

Li Liang was already waiting by the elevator. As soon as she saw the car pull up, she immediately opened the door. The overpowering smell of alcohol left her a bit dumbfounded -

How much did they drink? With the windows open the whole ride, yet the smell was still so strong...

"Sis, how did you end up drinking so much..."

Li Liang scratched her head. She practically had to carry Qin Wei out of the car. Thankfully, from daily lifting of luggage and equipment, plus Qin Wei's enthusiastic invitations to work out together, she had built up formidable arm strength. Carrying Qin Wei a stretch wasn't too difficult.

Qiao Sixiao followed them out of the car. She looked back at the two people in the back seat who were struggling to get up, and said:

"Xiao Wang take care of it, then go rest. You can take tomorrow off."

After saying that, she followed Li Liang into the elevator to help support the comatose dog.

My sister doesn't drink at all?

How did my sister end up like this?

I sent her to Director Sun's residential area right?

She was still an energetic little puppy when I dropped her off!

What happened, what happened!?

...

Li Liang had a belly full of questions, but seeing Qiao Sixiao's face as gloomy as can be, she still swallowed all her questions back down.

Ding-

The elevator door opened, and the two carried her stumbling out. They had just walked a few steps when Qin Wei woke up, first struggling, then making vomiting expressions.

"Li Liang go open the door!"

Qiao Sixiao held her tightly to get her to settle down, urging Li Liang to hurry up.

"Don't you dare throw up in the hallway..."

Qiao Sixiao said, then lowered her voice asking Li Liang,

"Done yet?!"

Li Liang had rushed out, carrying the canvas bag Qin Wei had given her earlier. The room card and keys were also inside, but her bag contained all kinds of junk, strawberry teddy flashlight, strawberry hair tie, strawberry tissues, headphones, chargers, bank cards, house keys, and piles of bits and bobs.

The more she dug through it, the messier it got. Who knew which piece of junk was the room card...

"You're fired."

Qiao Sixiao gritted her teeth, forcibly dragged the drunk dog to her own room door, awkwardly took out her room card to open the door and go inside.

Li Liang followed in with a bitter look on her face.

She first helped Qiao Sixiao get Qin Wei onto the sofa, then hurried to pour her a glass of water, feeding her for half a day before she drank two sips. Qin Wei smacked her lips, then pushed Li Liang's hand away.

"Leave it on the table."

Qiao Sixiao said, then went to sit on the small sofa by the window to rest. This trip only takes a few minutes normally, but today it took a full half hour.

Outwardly acting like nothing was wrong, but she was actually tired to death!

Li Liang went to the side, dumping out all the things from Qin Wei's canvas bag, then sat on the floor in a daze. The room was quiet now, no one bothering anyone else, they all needed time to recover...

"It's because it's a principle that I can't hold a glass at the banquet and keep calling them 'Boss', 'President Chen', 'President Li' while smiling and toasting them!"

"What's wrong with having some self-respect?!"

"You have to have some basic principles, right?!"

"I don't understand."

...

At this moment of relaxed nerves, Su Yang's words before getting out of the car replayed in Qiao Sixiao's memories.

Su Yang wasn't wrong. Those were Su Yang's values. Before entering this industry, he was an outstanding student. He relied on his abilities to get into a top institution, and relied on paper after paper to gain his advisor's favor.

His research results also came from his repeated experiments. In the process, he neither flattered the sponsors of the research projects, nor was obsequious to his advisor. He moved forward step by step relying only on his own grades.

The good academic environment nurtured his academic abilities, and also instilled in him the values of speaking with his own capabilities.

Principles...

Self-respect...

Backbone...

Bottom line...

Those were all his pride.

But...

Qiao Sixiao looked at the person sitting across from her.

Qin Wei did all this because of her...
