Quite awkward

Chapter 69 Enemies meet

In the middle of the night, Mu Chenan had just returned home from a party with friends. He was leaning quietly on the sofa in the living room to soothe his drunkenness when the phone suddenly rang.

I took a casual glance and saw that it was morning in the United States at this time.

He answered the phone and raised his hand to his ear.

"Hey, big brother."

Mu Yanqing, who was sitting opposite him, naturally heard the frivolity in his voice and asked, "Did you drink too much?"

"I'm quite sober. Just tell me what you want to say."

Mu Yanqing, as an older brother, expressed concern for the situation and then asked, "How are you doing with the house in Beicheng?"

"I asked Qi Yu, and she refused to take it." Mu Chenan reported truthfully without giving any extra reasons.

"Then I'll talk to her. I think it's inconvenient for her to live with a friend. She'd feel more at ease if she had her own house in North City..."

Mu Yanqing spoke his thoughts slowly and methodically, all for Qi Yu's consideration.

"Brother." Mu Chenan suddenly interrupted him and chuckled softly, "Qi Yu signed with Zhang Pei's company yesterday. She decided to return to Linjiang for development. So, you don't need to consider buying her a house in North City anymore."

Mu Yanqing was stunned, surprised that Mu Chenan knew about this earlier than him, but Qi Yu did not tell him on his own initiative.

Some are unexpected and some are weird.

After a long pause, he asked, "Where will she live when she returns to Linjiang? Will Zhang Pei's company allocate dormitories to its employees?"

Mu Chenan's tone was very casual, and he seemed to be discussing something.

"Brother, Qi Yu has nowhere to go and is currently living in my house. What are you going to do with her next?"

Mu Yanqing paused and thought for a moment.

In a villa, Mu Chenan and Qi Yu live on each floor and do not disturb each other. The family has hired a aunt to clean and cook, as well as a driver who is available at any time. This may bring many conveniences to Qi Yu's life.

But he didn't say too much, instead he pleaded earnestly: "Chen An, Nian Han is pregnant, I may not return to China for a year or two, please help me take care of A Yu, don't let her enter the entertainment industry and be bullied."

"As for you two living in the same house, I respect Ayu's choice. If she can accept it, you should be generous and don't drive her away. If she doesn't accept it, I will help her find another place to live."

Muchen remained silent.

The other party had no idea that he had already made arrangements. Qi Yu was so poor now that she had no choice and nowhere to go, so she could only live here honestly.

He used to find this woman annoying and wanted her to get as far away from him as possible.

This time, he let her stay here and provided her with food and shelter. He put aside past grudges and remained a good person to the end.

He said to his brother on the phone: "Brother, take good care of our parents, take good care of your wife and children, and don't worry too much about Qi Yu. I promise I will help you look after her."

Mu Yanqing expressed his satisfaction, but it was impossible for him to let go of Qi Yu, and he would still show her the usual care.

-

Two days later, Qi Yu returned to Linjiang from Beicheng.

During the day, Mu Chenan was not in the villa. Qi Yu packed up the things he had moved in, had lunch, and then took the script to the company to meet Zhang Pei.

It was that office again. Zhang Pei was scolding someone. Qi Yu hesitantly withdrew his hand from pushing the door, walked to the corner and waited quietly.

After a while, the frosted glass door was pushed open. Qi Yu was not far away. He turned his head and saw a group of girls walking out of the office.

They all have fair skin, beautiful looks, exquisite makeup and fashionable clothes, but the expressions on their faces are lost and frustrated.

The last person in the team had a solemn expression and a bit of arrogance. After she came out, she closed the door, crossed her arms and scolded the other girls.

"It's all your fault for your poor business skills. You always hold me back. This time, Mr. Zhang was so angry that he even scolded me. I should be the one who got wronged."

After he finished speaking, Qi Yu turned around completely, and soon their eyes met. Jiang Mengzhi's expression suddenly froze, and the rest of the words he wanted to vent were stuck in his throat.

She walked over in black high-heeled boots, looking irritable and disrespectful, and asked in a questioning tone, "Why are you here?"

The other girls looked puzzled and craned their necks to look over here out of curiosity.

Since the incident was so ugly, Qi Yu had no intention of paying any attention to Jiang Mengzhi. She walked around them expressionlessly and stood at the office door, knocking.

"Who is she?" a girl asked in a low voice, covering her mouth.

After hearing this, Jiang Mengzhi gritted his teeth and replied, "A show-stealer."

“She wants to sign with our company?”

“Maybe.”

Qi Yu heard every word clearly.

She was not competing with these people, and she was here to make money, not to make friends, and she had never thought about dealing with interpersonal relationships with her colleagues.

Besides, Jiang Mengzhi had a bad attitude from the beginning, so Qi Yu naturally didn't have to be nice to her.

Zhang Pei responded, Qi Yu went in, turned around and closed the door tightly.

"Brother Zhang Pei."

Zhang Pei was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window smoking. He turned around and saw Qi Yu, then put out the remaining half of his cigarette, waved the smoke off his body, and invited her to sit down.

“Have you finished reading the script?”

"Yeah, yes, the third female lead in 'Years of Prosperity' is more suitable for me. I even wrote a 10,000-word biography of the character these past two days..."

Qi Yu cherishes opportunities very much. She will not be perfunctory in her work. Making money is her primary goal, but perfectly interpreting a role that impresses the audience is equally important.

She didn't want to be mediocre like before. Since she was doing this, she had to try her best to do her best, at least to be true to her heart.

"Qi Yu, you did a great job."

Zhang Pei chuckled softly, his expression showing recognition and appreciation for her.

As the boss of an entertainment company, he has a sharp eye. Qi Yu is not only beautiful, but also has a heart willing to work hard to improve herself. He doesn't want to care about Muchenan's instructions that day. As long as Qi Yu is willing to cooperate, he will definitely make her a big star.

For an artist, ability is important, but also the right opportunity. When he watched the students' graduation drama, only Qi Yu left a deep impression on him. She was not bad, but she had been working alone in the past six months and no one made reasonable plans for her, so she wasted so much time.

"When will this movie start filming?" Qi Yu held his hands, his eyes full of anticipation.

In Zhang Pei's impression, it seemed that the filming of this drama would not start for another half a month. He stood up, picked up the mobile phone from the desk, and called the producer.

Qi Yu sat up straight, with his hands on his knees, waiting for a reply.

After the call ended, Zhang Pei said in a gentle voice, "Qi Yu, you're going to attend pre-performance training tomorrow. You're playing a dancer, and they require advance training. You have a dance part in the play."

Qi Yu stood up and nodded, a look of joy on his face.

"Will you arrange a hotel?"

"Of course, filming will start in half a month. This drama will take three months to shoot. Pack your bags and I will personally take you to meet the director tomorrow."

Zhang Peiman made careful arrangements and looked up to see Qi Yu's reaction. She seemed very happy.

That’s right, I’m finally able to make money, of course I’m happy.

This girl is very motivated to make money, which shows that she is not afraid of hard work. This is completely opposite to what Muchenan described. It seems that his words are not credible.
