Qiao Qing comforted Lang Yin with a look, then said to Qi Yusen, "Brother, there's no need for all this. I can protect myself. I just simply was caught off guard by how drastically different Feng Heng was being."
"Also, because of our history, I didn't have the heart to attack him. In the future, I won't get myself in that kind of situation again."
Qi Yusen pursed his lips, "They won't be a bother to you. I don't feel good after what happened today."
Qiao Qing replied, "Brother, I'm not used to having so many people at my disposal. I promise you that no such thing will happen again. Okay?"
Qi Yusen sighed and rubbed her head, "I will forgive you this once. But they are reserved for you. When you want them, let me know."
Qiao Qing nodded, "Okay."
Jun Yexuan, "..."
After dinner, Qiao Qing went to the library like usual. The moment she sat down, her phone rang.
She picked up and heard Shen Jie say, "Qingqing, don't skip town on me tomorrow for the opening party! It's going to be the first opening ceremony you're there for. As the screenplay writer, you have to come."
Qiao Qing hesitated, "Is the opening ceremony public or..."
"It's a secret!" Shen Jie said, "I'll use my head as collateral to guarantee you that it's happening in secret! I know you don't want people to know your real identity so I didn't even tell third young master Jun, even though he's one of the biggest investors! Tomorrow will just be the actors and the employees!"
Qiao Qing tapped her fingers against the table and agreed.
The next morning at breakfast, Uncle Ning ran over and whispered something into Qi Yusen's ear.
Qi Yusen put down his chopsticks and patted Qiao Qing's head, "I'm going to the office."
Qiao Qing froze, "What happened?"
"Nothing. Just a little thing at work." Qi Yusen answered and got up to leave.
After he sat in his car, he looked across at Qi Yuyang, "Let's go."
Qi Yuyang scratched his head, "Brother, why didn't you let me go in? I was going to eat breakfast at your place and then go with you. Why did you make me wait outside?"
Ning Ye thought, the miss is hiding inside the mansion, there was no way you would be allowed in.
Qi Yusen said to Qi Yuyang, "Let's eat out."
"Ah? Alright!" Qi Yuyang didn't think too much, "Where?"
Qi Yusen didn't answer and asked instead, "Did you bring the gift?"
"I did." Qi Yuyang handed him a box, "A buddhist pearl from the North Mountain Temple. It's made from the warmest kind of jade. It should be a great gift for the elderly."
Qi Yusen opened the box and nodded, "Not bad."
Qiao Qing didn't find Qi Yusen's action suspicious. Jun Yexuan and Mu Jinghang, however, exchanged glances.
After food, Qiao Qing went to school.
After she signed a fake notice of absence notes, she asked Lang Yin to drive her to the airport.
At the same time, Jun Yexuan and Mu Jinghang were also on their way to the airport.
Mu Jinghang asked, "Third bro, how come director Shen is starting the filming of the show in secret?"
"Based on the book's popularity, there is no way the opening ceremony date isn't made public."
"But the production team didn't say anything. If it weren't for your strong connections, I wouldn't even know about it."
"Plus, you invested so much money and are the biggest investor. Shouldn't he tell you as a courtesy?"
"Not sure," Jun Yexuan simply responded, "Perhaps it's because Feng Ci doesn't want any attention."
