The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 4

Five or six assistants gradually came into the courtyard, each pulling two suitcases.

Qin Wei silently counted to herself - wow, twelve suitcases in total. The courtyard was so small and the number of rooms was also very limited. How many guests were invited to the show?

The assistants stood there pulling the suitcases to one side of the courtyard, deliberately leaving the doorway open. Then they saw a woman walk in. She had a tall figure and was wearing a blazer and a short skirt, showing off a pair of exceptionally long legs.

Someone was even holding an umbrella for her. As she walked in, she exuded an imposing aura.

Qin Wei looked up at the sky filled with dark clouds but there was no rain. The umbrella definitely wasn't for shading from the sun. It was just a precaution...

"Isn't that Lin Qiqi? She looks even prettier than on TV," said the young girl who had just arrived. She had also put down her luggage and come out with Daniel. Her gaze was also completely drawn to the woman with the powerful aura.

"Givenchy's latest Ulock suit hasn't even been officially released yet. As expected of a celebrity, always being able to stay at the forefront of fashion," said Qin Wei.

Qin Wei turned her head to look. The girl who had spoken looked quite young with bright eyes that were very pretty.

Their eyes met directly. The girl was startled for a moment, quickly recognizing Qin Wei, and bowed to her:

"Sister Qin Wei, hello, I'm Su Xiaoxiao."

Su Xiaoxiao? She had never heard of her. She was probably a new face in the last two years. But at that moment, her attention was not on Su Xiaoxiao. She moved closer and asked in a low voice:

"Hello Xiaoxiao...do you know who that woman is?"

"Teacher Qin, it really is you!"

Before Qin Wei could finish speaking, the woman called "Lin Qiqi" had already called out to her. She then walked over while taking off her sunglasses.

Seeing Qin Wei's slightly confused expression, she continued:

"When I saw your name on the notice, I thought it must be a no-name doppelganger! After all, you've been busy terminating your contract, how could you have time to participate in a show? I didn't expect it to really be you!"

Her tone was polite yet enthusiastic, but every sentence was an insult. Even if Qin Wei didn't understand the industry well, she could sense the hostility.

From this, she inferred that the woman was probably a rival.

But judging by the woman's attitude, Qin Wei guessed she was not to be trifled with. Wanting to avoid trouble, Qin Wei just smiled at her perfunctorily.

But the woman persisted. She first turned her head and told her assistant:

"Amy, go take the luggage into the room. Be careful, the stuff inside is expensive. And those Rimowa boxes - don't damage them either...

It's rare that I get to work with Teacher Qin. I want to chat with her for a bit here...

Oh right, Teacher Qin, are you still busy lately? I heard you terminated your contract with Givenchy? Ah don't mind, of course I only heard it from others. The other day when its executives gave me this suit, my agent happened to mention it during our discussion of collaboration!"

Who asked you...

Qin Wei looked her up and down unabashedly without saying a word. Her gaze...made Lin Qiqi feel somewhat uneasy inside.

Lin Qiqi couldn't help but grumble to herself -

Feeling like I could step on someone of Qin Wei's status feels so awesome, but did I go overboard? What if she wants revenge on me...

Qin Wei's mouth curled up into a smile. She said to her:

"Who are you?"

Lin Qiqi's expression changed instantly.

"Wow...after all that, Qin Wei didn't even bother with her one bit..."

Su Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and said to Daniel.

Lin Qiqi's agent coughed to remind her to keep her emotions in check. He then spoke on her behalf:

"Ms. Qin Wei, this is my artist Lin Qiqi. She used to be a model and transitioned into acting in recent years, achieving some success...

Of course, it's normal you don't recognize her. She's still on the rise and has a long way to go.

Qiqi, be more sensible. Teacher Qin is your senior in the industry."

Lin Qiqi's emotions stabilized slightly. She then enthusiastically grabbed Qin Wei's hand and said:

"Please don't misunderstand me. I only said those things out of concern...

Actually, terminating the contract is pretty good too. Look, now you can wear whatever you want so freely, just throw on a hundred yuan tracksuit if you feel like it, without needing to care about brands at all. Not like me, restricted by the contract to listen to the brand's instructions on what to wear...

Don't look at this outfit costing over 20,000 yuan, wearing it doesn't feel as comfortable as a tracksuit at all!

But there's no way around it, as a spokesperson, I still have to cooperate on what's needed for work."

Wow, I thought she would come to her senses and say something else, but she just couldn't control her mouth. Of course, being about to endorse a high-end brand, one that had just terminated Qin Wei, brought her immense joy. She just had to flaunt it vigorously in front of Qin Wei and poke at her sore spot.

But she didn't know Qin Wei wasn't the original owner, so the endorsement didn't belong to her in the first place. Hence she didn't experience the feeling of loss and naturally wouldn't feel too upset now.

It was just that this woman was strutting so arrogantly in front of her, making Qin Wei very annoyed.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Qin Wei said and then withdrew her hand, taking out her phone to busy herself.

But this scene brought Lin Qiqi immense delight - Qin Wei was crestfallen! She was envious and jealous! Resources like these originally belonged to Qin Wei, but now they belonged to her! Someone of Qin Wei's status could only watch covetously. This feeling was just too awesome.

"Teacher Qin, why don't you move out then!"

As soon as Lin Qiqi finished speaking, not only Qin Wei and the other program staff looked at her, even her own agent was stunned for a moment.

Her agent's eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the director on site. He then lowered his voice and asked Lin Qiqi:

"Qiqi, what are you saying?"

Lin Qiqi laughed and calmly explained to everyone:

"Oh don't get me wrong everyone! I'm not saying to not let Teacher Qin participate, just that, look, the show has two female dorms for now, and I'm used to having a room to myself. I've never shared a two-person room before. Plus I brought a lot of stuff, it'd be inconvenient to squeeze into one room with someone else. And and..."

After omitting ten thousand more words, in short, her highness wanted a single room.

Qin Wei didn't say anything, just looked down at her phone again.

Suddenly it became strangely quiet.

Lin Qiqi broke the silence herself once more. She walked up to Qin Wei and looked at her innocently:

"Teacher Qin look, I have a lot of stuff, clothes, accessories, skincare, makeup etc. It takes up a lot of space when laid out, and they're all very valuable. If you accidentally bump into and damage something, it would increase your financial burden right?

I'll have Amy move you over. Don't be shy."

Even the program staff were shocked when they heard this. The director on site stroked his sparse hair. He thought, who is this Lin Qiqi and where is she from acting like this as soon as she arrives, stirring up trouble? That's not how you should be causing a scene on the show!

Qin Wei will definitely be furious. Although she's not what she used to be, her popularity is still there. Many people came just for her, even if most are probably antis...

With Lin Qiqi being so aggressive, if Qin Wei quits filming, what future would this show have?

Yet Qin Wei didn't respond to her, still staring at her phone screen.
