The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 310

Shen Qingqing came back carrying several shopping bags, judging from the brand logos on them, they were all clothes. There were both fashion and luxury brands.

"Where did you go shopping in the middle of nowhere?" Qin Wei asked her, and glanced at the map on her phone at the same time. This town was small without many people, so there were no large chain department stores or luxury shopping plazas.

"Guo Yuyang insisted on buying them for me."

Shen Qingqing put down the pile of stuff on the ground,

"I told him I didn't bring any luggage. He then asked his assistant who was still purchasing supplies in the city to buy me clothes. They were delivered right after dinner."

Qin Wei looked at these items and knew they were not cheap:

"He gave them to you and you took them? Aren't you afraid he has ulterior motives?"

Shen Qingqing sat casually next to her, looking at Qin Wei innocently:

"It wasn't me who asked for them, he insisted on giving them to me. I told him I didn't want them, but he begged me to take them..."

As she spoke, she smiled cheekily at Qin Wei:

"Why would I care what motives he has? If he wants me, I'll give myself to him? He's not like some people~"

"Then you shouldn't have taken them. And what were you busy with today that you told me not to bother you?"

Qin Wei said, then let Li Jing leave first to rest.

Shen Qingqing acted like nothing had happened:

"I didn't do anything much, just an ordinary day of being pursued, that's all."

Qin Wei: "Why don't you return the stuff to him then? I don't think this is right."

Shen Qingqing didn't understand: "Not right? They weren't expensive items, and I didn't ask for them anyway."

Qin Wei: "Then what are you after?"

Shen Qingqing pouted: "I was bored and just wanted to kill time."

Qin Wei: "Do you even have moral values?"

Shen Qingqing very frankly shook her head: "No."

"...Then go to bed."

Qin Wei patted Shen Qingqing on the shoulder.

Shen Qingqing happily went to the bedroom door:

"Can I sleep with you then?"

"No."

It seemed there were still many areas where Shen Qingqing needed to establish moral values...

...

Qin Wei had a filming task in a few hours. Since she had to get up early to get styled, she didn't wake Shen Qingqing up and left her a note before leaving first.

When she arrived at the set, the sky was still dark. The props team had brought over the horses that would be used for filming. After Qin Wei was dressed up, she walked out of the makeup room and felt the big temperature difference between day and night. Although it was the height of summer, she could feel a slight chill in her costume.

Qin Wei rubbed her hands feeling that her outfit was too thin. If she stayed outside for too long, she would catch a cold.

"Ms. Qin."

Someone called out to her from not far away. Looking towards the voice, it was Sheng Lin wearing a thick coat. He led an maroon pony and walked towards her,

"You're here. The grasslands have a wide temperature range. It’s so cold, you should wear more."

As he spoke, he was about to take off his coat to give to Qin Wei. But she refused:

"No need. Don't let anyone take pictures, you know recently... whoever is associated with me has bad luck. No need, really."

What she said was true. Artists who had good relationships with Qin Wei were all dug up by netizens recently, it was truly unfortunate.

Sheng Lin didn’t insist. He handed the reins to Qin Wei:

"I picked this horse for you. She's small in size with a gentle temperament. Horses understand human nature. Pat her and spend some time with her. If you feel okay with her, we’ll use her for filming later."

Qin Wei took the horse and walked it around to see if it rejected her before trying to pat it. As Sheng Lin said, this little horse had a great personality and even liked to act coquettish. From when Qin Wei stroked its mane, it made a satisfied snort, then leaned its head against Qin Wei.

"The saddle has been fixed for you. Try riding it!"

With Sheng Lin’s help, she vaulted onto the horse’s back. The docile pony stood still there, seeming to be waiting for her command.

Qin Wei had learned to ride before, so after taking the reins, she walked it around a few rounds and soon regained her feel.

Today's filming was a night scene with horse riding. There were no special plot requirements, just one scene among the many with people riding horses on the grassland that the director wanted Qin Wei to be as relaxed as possible in.

Night, outside the tents, Luoyang in red clothes took a bow and arrows, got on a horse, and galloped towards the woods.

"Cut! Great!"

Qin Wei pulled on the reins and turned the horse around to come back, hearing the director praise:

"Qin Wei performed very well. Few people get horse riding scenes done in one take in these two weeks, but she nailed it! Let's prepare again and shoot some close-ups..."

...

When daylight approached, the filming stopped temporarily. It was the coldest now. Li Jing brought a thick coat to wrap Qin Wei in and took her to rest in the tent.

"It'll get hot again once the sun comes out."

When they went in, Sheng Lin was already inside. A small stove was set up in the tent and Sheng Lin was putting a small pot on it to make milk tea.

Seeing what he was doing, Qin Wei looked utterly confused. Sheng Lin smiled and asked her to sit down, then explained:

"When I came a few days ago, I discovered it gets quite cold here early mornings and nights. So I bought some small devices from town for heating and refreshment that could also ease hunger.

My milk tea here has milk and brick tea, with a small knob of butter and a tiny bit of salt too. I'll pour you a bowl if you don't mind."

"I absolutely don't mind!"

At this moment, Qin Wei was feeling cold. After drinking two sips of the milk tea Sheng Lin made, she felt much warmer.

It was about time to film again. Guo Yuyang had also gotten dressed up and come over.

Gone were his past enthusiasm, even a little scornful. Guo Yuyang indifferently read through the script with Qin Wei, occasionally revealing impatient expressions.

When acting with him, Qin Wei was already mentally prepared to endure it, after all, this drama needed him. The matter of future investments was still uncertain, so Sharp Edge's subsequent investments were crucial.

So no matter how terribly he performed, Qin Wei didn't have any complaints.

A simple sibling conversation scene took up a whole morning, still failing to achieve the effect the director wanted.

Guo Yuyang also knew that Sharp Edge's continued investment was very important to this drama at present. Thus, he was increasingly brazen, putting down the script and said he had lost the mood, needing to rest.

Right at break time, Shen Qingqing also came.

Seeing her arrival, Guo Yuyang immediately greeted her merrily.

But Shen Qingqing was clearly much cooler, merely nodding at him then going to find Qin Wei.

"Qingqing, you didn't sleep well last night? Are you in a bad mood? Are you hungry? Tell me what you want to eat..."

Guo Yuyang clapped himself on the forehead, only then remembering that she had come to fight for a role this time, which explained her aloofness since he hadn't made any moves.

...

"You're not really asking for a role right?"

Only when they got in the car with just the two of them plus Shen Qingqing's driver did Qin Wei dare ask her.

"Whether I get it or not depends on my capability. Coming to you is a bit of a roundabout way. I was just bored and wanted to play with him, make him get out of this drama. I knew about him constantly harassing you before. I didn't have time to do anything then. Now that I'm free, I can spare time to play with him."

Qin Wei was helpless. She didn't hide anything from Shen Qingqing either:

"I want him gone too, but you know the funding issue with this drama right now. If he leaves, Sharp Edge will pull their investment."
