She wanted to fill her stomach and go back to rest early.
Before she came, the staff had just confirmed the role with her and given her the script. She had to put more effort into acting.
After she was 70 - 80% full, Qiao Ai decided to leave.
Just as she put down the plate, someone patted her on the back.
Qiao Ai turned around and met the smiling eyes of the movie king.
"Xiao Qiao, it's really you!"
"Brother…Lin." Qiao Ai was surprised that Lin Chi knew her.
"To think that I would meet you here, I thought you were no longer in this circle.”
Qiao Ai smiled awkwardly. She wasn't popular, but she shouldn't have been so miserable as to disappear into the circle. Forget it, she almost died.
"Xiao Qiao, you're even prettier than before. Which company are you working at now?”Lin Chi was quite enthusiastic. He could see Qiao Ai's awkwardness. It seemed that this girl had been living a bad life all these years.
"I'm at Mei Li, an artiste under Sister Li.”
Sister Li was a well-known manager, and very few people in the industry did not know her.
"So she has the same manager as Xiao Mu.”Ding Mu was Sister Li's number one general and a very popular artiste.
"Brother Lin, I didn't expect you to still remember me!”Qiao Ai changed the topic. If they continued chatting, she would have to dig a hole in the ground. There was no comparison or harm.
" Of course, you were the prettiest in the crew, hehe…" Lin Tong didn't hide his praise for Qiao Ai.
Qiao Ai was too embarrassed to laugh along. She glanced around, and most of her eyes were on them. She had become the target of public criticism.
That was true. She was an unknown supporting character, yet she was actually chatting and laughing with the Best Actor. It was indeed a little too eye-catching.
"Xiao Qiao, what role are you playing?" But the Best Actor didn't realize that his current identity was a dazzling existence no matter where he was. He was already used to such attention.
"I'll play Consort Chen, one of your many concubines.”Qiao Ai had roughly read the novel before she came. Consort Chen had a tragic ending. Because she had gone against the Empress played by Lin Fangling, she had used her family's power to act arrogantly in the palace for a while. However, as her family's power fell, she lost favor and suffered the Empress's revenge. Scenes like slapping and pinching her fingers appeared one after another. In total, she did not survive more than five episodes out of the 70-odd episodes.
Now that she thought about it, Lin Fangling wanted to use the role to humiliate her, right?
However, from another perspective, this character had a distinct personality. She dared to love and hate, and she was a character that could become famous. Qiao Ai would tolerate this!
It was better than going back to his hometown!
"Concubine Chen, that's not bad. We have a scene together! Back then, when I first entered the industry, I didn't manage to film the scene with you well. I always felt regretful. Now, I can make up for the regret at that time.”
Qiao Ai smiled. You're the best actor. As long as you're happy!
After chatting for a while, the Best Actor was called away.
However, this conversation with the Best Actor had attracted a lot of Hatred Points for her.
After the dinner party, Miffy blocked her at the entrance of the hotel room.
"Qiao Ai, you have to know your place. With your status, you're not even qualified to carry Lin Chi's shoes.”After Mi Fei finished her sarcasm, she did not forget to say to Mo Xiaoqi,"Newbie, you have to be careful. Qiao Ai has been in the industry for many years. She's not famous, but she has learned a lot of underhanded tricks. Don't let her sell you out without you knowing.”
"Miffy, don't go too far." Qiao Ai couldn't hold it in anymore.
"I was right. You're angry from embarrassment.”Miffy snorted." Let me tell you, Lin Chi won't stay in this hotel. Don't even think about climbing into bed."”
Without waiting for Qiao Ai to retort, Miffy swayed her hips and walked away arrogantly.
"Sister Qiao, what's your relationship with the Best Actor?”Mo Xiaoqi, who had been listening quietly, asked her in a low voice.
"It's nothing. Before he became famous, we acted as extras in a movie together.”Qiao Ai felt that there was no need to explain. She turned around and went into the house.
*
Although the production team would start soon.
She did not have a lot of scenes, so she often had to wait for half a day before she could act. For her, the most painful part of filming was waiting for a scene.
It was really torturous to put on makeup early in the morning and wear ancient costumes in the middle of summer on a set without air-conditioning.
The worst thing was that sometimes, even if she waited for a day after putting on makeup, if the lead actor had something to do and delayed the process, she might have waited for nothing.
On this day, because Lin Fangling's schedule could not be arranged, the first scene with her could only be pushed back to the next day.
She had waited from dawn to dusk for a whole day in vain.
Qiao Ai and Mo Xiaoqi dragged their sweaty and exhausted bodies back to the hotel.
Qiao Ai was stopped at the entrance of the hotel.
This person was Gao Yang whom he had met once before.
"Xiao Qi, I have something to do. Go back to your room and rest first.”After sending the curious Mo Xiaoqi away, Qiao Ai followed Gao Yang to the underground parking lot.
In a luxury car, Si Han leaned against the window, his large eyes staring at the elevator.
Si Nancheng was working on his laptop.
When he saw Qiao Ai walking over, Si Han excitedly called out for his mommy.
Si Nancheng didn't even look away. He reached out and pressed the child against the seat, afraid that he would rush out of the car.
The car door opened. Qiao Ai hesitated and refused to get in.
"Do you still need me to get out of the car to invite you?" Si Nan City's impatient voice was heard.
Qiao Ai turned around and glanced at Gao Yang, who was blocking her way out. She gritted her teeth and got into the car.
As soon as she got into the car, the child struggled and wanted to pounce on her.
Si Nancheng hugged the child and frowned in disgust."Don't move. She's dirty."
"You're the dirty one!" Qiao Ai answered smoothly.
"Isn't the stench of sweat dirty?"
"I was just about to go back to my room to take a shower. Who asked you to let me come over?”Qiao Ai retorted, but when she saw the child's excited eyes, she still greeted him warmly." Hanhan, long time no see."
"Mommy, I miss you so much." Si Han was like a slippery little fish struggling to get out of Sinan City's embrace.
"I missed you too."
"Mommy, hug!" Si Han stretched out his hand towards her, looking aggrieved.
"Next time, next time, I'll hug you after she's washed up.”Si Nancheng didn't let go." Hanhan, you said you were here to give me a gift. Otherwise, I wouldn't have."”
Si Nancheng's words worked. Si Han pouted and reached into his small bag to take out the gift.
"Mommy, this is an early birthday present for you. Daddy and I chose it together.”She handed the gift box to Qiao Ai like a child presenting a treasure.
Qiao Ai was stunned. The unhappiness in her heart was instantly washed away. Si Han actually knew her birthday and even gave her a birthday present.
"Why aren't you coming over to pick me up?" Si Nancheng raised his eyebrows, and his tone sounded like he was giving alms.
Qiao Ai pursed her lips, dissatisfied with his words. However, when she met the child's expectant and pure eyes, her heart melted. She happily came over to accept the gift. Thank you, Hanhan."
"Mommy, open it and take a look." the child said excitedly.
Qiao Ai looked at the exquisitely wrapped gift box and was reluctant to open it. Under Hanhan's urging, she carefully opened the gift box. When she opened it, she was stunned. Wasn't this a limited edition star watch that had just been released by Patrick Phillip? It even had her own name engraved on it.
This was too valuable!
