In front of Jian Xi, Shen Qingli unscrewed the ointment, and soon a minty scent gushed out, refreshing the heart.

Jian Xi took out a mirror from her bag and placed it in front of her.

Shen Qingli in the mirror had fair skin and a slightly swollen neck, which was very ambiguous.

She applied the medicine to the red and swollen areas. The ointment was cool and the redness and swelling gradually disappeared.

Half an hour later, the redness and swelling on my neck had almost healed.

As expected, the expensive ointment is really effective.

Jian Xi saw this scene and let out a sigh.

"Li Li, this ointment is really good. It's a good thing you used it."

Shen Qingli lowered her head and looked at the ointment on the table, her thoughts churning.

She had wrongly blamed Gu Peisi.

She picked up the phone and wanted to send an apology, but it took a long time for her to send it out.

Forget it. We will have fewer chances to meet in the future anyway. Since I misunderstood him, let it be.

In the afternoon, Shen Qingli received a message from Director Xu, saying that filming would begin in the evening and asked her to be prepared.

Jian Xi also received the text message. She asked Shen Qingli, "Lili, the filming will officially start tonight. Are you nervous?"

"Fortunately."

This was Shen Qingli's first time participating in a filming, and it would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous.

However, she has her own way of adjusting.

When I was in school, many of my classmates were sons and daughters of wealthy families.

As the daughter of a newly rich family, she seemed out of place among her surroundings.

Those mocking eyes always fell on her, and gradually, she got used to being alone.

Whenever she goes on stage to perform, she gets very nervous, fearing that others will laugh at her.

Later, she met Ji Tiantian, who was enthusiastic and lively, like a ball of fire, and she infected her.

After that, she was no longer lonely and felt more relaxed.

Before performing on stage, she takes a deep breath to relieve her tension.

After so many times, those things became normal to her and she no longer felt oppressed.

For this shoot as well, she was mentally prepared and tried her best to be in the best condition and show herself.

At night, Shen Qingli, as a guest actor, did not have her own dressing room.

As the third female lead, Jian Xi barely had a dressing room that was neither too big nor too small.

Under her guidance, the two came to a room less than ten square meters.

Here, the makeup artist is still helping the heroine with her makeup.

They have to put on makeup and wait at least an hour.

"Hey, Lili, we probably have to wait another hour." Jian Xi sighed.

As an actor without a backstage, even the makeup artist has to wait in line.

They have to wait until the heroine and the second female lead have finished their makeup before it can be their turn.

Although Zhou Yan once said that he would get her whatever she needed, Jian Xi refused.

In the entertainment industry, one needs to be low-key when dating, so as to avoid being used as a topic by those with ulterior motives.

She also didn't know how far she and Zhou Yan could go. If they broke up one day and he took back all the benefits, she would not be able to get used to it.

In that case, it would be better to refuse from the beginning.

Fortunately, Zhou Yan knew her temper and agreed to do as she thought.

Shen Qingli didn't care. She picked up her phone and recorded her inspiration.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Jian Xi stood up and went to open the door.

When she saw Qiao Jinnian's outfit, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

As expected of a top star, his looks are really amazing.

She was dressed in a white patterned brocade robe, with her hair tied up with a hairpin. She had a picturesque face and a graceful figure, as if she was an immortal who had stepped out of a painting.

"Mr. Qiao, why are you here?"

Qiao Jinnian leaned against the door frame, looking straight ahead, as if wanting to see what was going on inside.

"I've finished my makeup and came to see you guys."

Jian Xi made way for him, and Qiao Jinnian walked around her and into the room.

Shen Qingli heard the noise outside the door and put her phone into her pocket.

When he saw Qiao Jinnian, he was stunned.

Why did he come here at this time?

Qiao Jinnian saw that there was not even a makeup artist inside. After thinking for a moment, he said to them, "My makeup artist hasn't left yet. How about I ask him to come over and help you with your makeup?"

As the young master of the Qiao family and a top star in the entertainment industry, Qiao Jinnian has a dedicated makeup artist.

Jian Xi had no objection to this proposal.

It will take some time for other makeup artists to finish.

She really didn't want to wait any longer.

But she was a little hesitant. After all, she and Qiao Jinnian didn't have much friendship.

"Mr. Qiao, this is not a good idea."

When she said this, she made eye contact with Shen Qingli.

Shen Qingli had the same idea as her and didn't want to trouble others.

Qiao Jinnian seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and chuckled, "It's nothing. Do you still want to wait?"

"Well, thank you for your help then."

"No trouble."

He took out his cell phone and made a call.

After a while, the makeup artist came over with her things.

Before she could start putting on makeup, there was a knock on the door.

This time, it was Qiao Jinnian who opened the door.

Standing outside the door was Gu Peisi.

The moment he saw Qiao Jinnian, Gu Peisi's expression did not look good.

"Mr. Qiao, why are you here?"

He looked at the house number and saw that it was the dressing room for the third lady.

He read that right.

It seems that Qiao Jinnian took the opportunity to run to them.

Qiao Jinnian had a calm expression and stepped aside naturally.

"Mr. Gu is looking for Lili?"

Lili? Who made him call her so affectionately?

Gu Peisi's face was stern, and a cold air emanated from his whole body.

"I'm here to see my wife."

The two men looked at each other, neither giving in.

"Who is it?"

Jian Xi was a little curious about who came over at this time.

Usually, few people come to her small dressing room.

Today, thanks to Shen Qingli, there is a constant stream of people coming.

She came to the door and was shocked to see the men in confrontation.

Two men with strong auras, Gu Peisi is cold and noble, while Qiao Jinnian is gentle and elegant. When they stand together, they are both impossible to ignore.

It seems that they are all here to look for Lili.

"Mr. Gu, why are you here?" she asked in surprise.

Gu Peisi's gaze shifted away from Qiao Jinnian and fell on Jian Xi.

"Shen Qingli is here, right? I'm here to find her."

Shen Qingli had already heard Gu Peisi's voice, and when she thought of her previous misunderstanding of him, she didn't want to see him.

Jian Xi showed an expression of sudden enlightenment and answered truthfully: "She is inside."

After getting the answer he wanted, Gu Peisi took a long step, walked around Qiao Jinnian and headed inside.

When he passed by Qiao Jinnian, his eyes were full of mockery.

As if to say that he was nothing special.

Seeing the hint in Gu Peisi's eyes, the smile on Qiao Jinnian's face froze.

Soon, his face returned to calm, as if none of this had ever happened.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Shen Qingli began to avoid looking at him, not daring to face him directly.

When Gu Peisi came in, he saw this scene.

The petite woman stood stiffly with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.

Until he came in, she was still immersed in her own thoughts and did not look up at him.

Thinking of this, Gu Peisi stared at her with scorching eyes, as if he wanted to stare a hole in her.
