DTBS - Chapter 129
Chapter 129: She Loves Her So Much
The cat, who had been silently cursing Tao Qiuyun internally, walked out of the lounge and went to the spot the staff told her about. There, she saw a tall man in a suit. His appearance was decent, but his eyes were dark and bruised, clearly showing signs of being utterly worn out, completely destroying his overall demeanor.
However, even without the dark circles, Qin Qingshang didn't find this man particularly likable. After all...
This was Jiang Lihe!
That idiot male lead from the novel.
I thought this movie wasn't in the novel, so how are you still showing up?!
The cat was annoyed.
"Qingshang!" As soon as he saw Qin Qingshang, Jiang Lihe immediately perked up, showing a gentlemanly smile and trying his best to present his good side as he walked towards her.
However, in the cat's eyes, the man's smile, combined with his dark circles, didn't look like a gentleman's at all. Instead, there was a hint of sleaziness lingering around him.
Jiang Lihe, suddenly looking for me, must have bad intentions!
The cat instantly became alert.
"Stop, stop, stop! Mr. Jiang!" Qin Qingshang immediately held out a hand to stop him. "Please maintain a certain distance from me. Besides, we're not familiar enough to talk this close, are we? It's better to give each other some personal space."
Seeing the several meters between them, Jiang Lihe furrowed his brow. "Qingshang, you were a Sufeng artist after all. There's no need for us to be so distant, is there?"
"You really have the nerve. You say I used to be a Sufeng artist, CEO Jiang. I really want to know what kind of mood you were in when you said that." Qin Qingshang said sarcastically, staring at him. "I was doing perfectly fine at Sufeng, but as soon as you took office, you pulled something disgusting on me. Now I'm with Fuyao, and calling you CEO Jiang is me giving you face. Please remember that."
"Qingshang, I didn't come here today to argue with you," Jiang Lihe looked at her and lowered his head. "I know you're not who you used to be. You've married into a wealthy family, and the top-tier Tao family at that. You've truly flown onto a branch and become a phoenix. So I'm here to ask for your help."
"I flew onto a branch?" Qin Qingshang felt that Jiang Lihe was truly disgusting. "Let me tell you, CEO Jiang, it's not always a phoenix that can fly onto a branch. A sparrow can too."
Jiang Lihe didn't understand her underlying meaning. He had always considered himself superior, with arrogance in his bones, and he wasn't willing to think deeply. He came to Qin Qingshang today with only one goal: "Qingshang, I'm begging you. I've never begged anyone in my life. I'm begging you, please, for the sake of Sufeng being your former company, go and ask CEO Tao, okay? Ask her to let go of Sufeng and Jiang's company."
"You've already achieved success and fame. All you lack is a major award, but you're already filming a movie, and it's Director He's movie. The Best Actress title is within reach."
Jiang Lihe tried to gain some favor with her, continuing, "And everyone can see your acting skills, everyone can see your fan base. Your future is limitless. Since you've already achieved success and reached the peak, can you just let go of the small matters from the past?"
"In other words, you haven't really suffered any losses along the way, have you?"
"《White Robed Minister》 made you famous. You took on that drama as a Sufeng artist. Are you going to be ungrateful? And later, 《Super High-Speed Heartbeat》... I also brought you a lot of attention, didn't I? I exchanged being mocked by the entire internet for your success. Qingshang, are you really that cold and heartless? Can't you see other people's efforts?"
"Even if I didn't have credit, I put in the effort!"
"And I bothered you before because I didn't know the relationship between you and Tao Qiuyun. I thought you were single. I apologize for my previous actions... But now I know, so I've stayed far away."
"Qingshang, please forgive me, okay? You're already incredibly popular, not to mention having Tao Qiuyun escorting you and Chunjin and the Tao family backing you up. Your future is already on top of the clouds. There's no need... to still dwell on a stone that once blocked your path, right?"
"So please, can you act a little cute with Tao Qiuyun? Help me beg her to stop! Sufeng can't handle her torment, and Jiang's company can't withstand her wrath..."
"Qingshang, please, ask her to stop! Sufeng will definitely thank you in the future!"
After Jiang Lihe finished his long speech, Qin Qingshang finally shook her head, looking left and right with pure eyes, seemingly confused.
"Qingshang?" Jiang Lihe didn't understand what she was doing.
Although the woman's face in front of him was truly pleasing to the eye, making one feel bright and cheerful at a glance, and her playful actions made her look even cuter, but...
For him now, no matter how cute a woman was, could she be eaten as food?!
Sufeng was dying, and Jiang's company was dying! How could he still be in the mood to look at women!
Why did things turn out this way? This shouldn't be happening!
"Qingshang? Say something!" Jiang Lihe was anxious.
Qin Qingshang: "Chirp chirp~ tweet!"
Jiang Lihe: "...?" What is she doing?
"Qingshang," the man frowned, feeling uncertain, and guessed, "Are you... are you imitating some kind of bird?"
"I'm a sparrow that flew onto a branch," the cat-like figure stared at him innocently, blinked, and then covered her mouth with a gasp, "Ah! There's a strange thing looking at me, and it can talk!"
"Qin Qingshang!" Jiang Lihe was furious. "Are you messing with me?!"
"I'm complimenting you by calling you a thing," Qin Qingshang smiled, subtly shifting her feet and quietly backing away a few steps. "What? Does CEO Jiang think he's not a thing?"
"Wow! Is CEO Jiang's self-awareness so accurate?" The cat was surprised.
"Qin Qingshang, do you think you're really amazing? I'm speaking to you nicely, and you're still ungratefully cursing me back!" Jiang Lihe clenched his fists, his face flushed with anger. "I'll tell you the truth, if it weren't for Tao Qiuyun, if she hadn't married you, you'd be nothing in front of capital! You're just a small actress in the entertainment industry! Anyone could play with you!"
Hearing this, Qin Qingshang's face instantly darkened, and she said coldly, "Ah, yes, yes, yes, I'm nothing. Unlike you, CEO Jiang, in front of my wife, you're just a fart! They say silent farts are the worst, but even when you make a sound, you're still stinky!"
"You!" Rebutted by the sharp-tongued woman, Jiang Lihe glared at her angrily, unable to maintain his facade of gentleness any longer.
The man looked furious and shouted, "You hate me so much, don't you? No wonder, I was wondering why Tao Qiuyun would target Jiang's company for no reason. It's really because you, this vicious woman, whispered in her ear, isn't it? Tell me, is it?!"
"Jiang Lihe, are you being too confident?" The cat sneered. "Me whispering in Qiuqiu's ear? Me badmouthing you? That's hilarious. I'm always praising her in bed for being so fierce and amazing. She works me so hard all night that I lose my mind. I'm too busy enjoying myself to think about anything else. I can't even remember to ask for breakfast the next day, let alone think of you. You're truly self-important, self-righteous, and conceited!"
She paused, then added a few more insults: "Arrogant, self-important... short-sighted!"
Damn it, she couldn't think of any more words starting with "self-" for a moment.
It seems her recent reading input is insufficient; she needs to read more.
"You! You! You!" Jiang Lihe was so angry he clutched his chest, breathing rapidly.
Clearly, his vocabulary couldn't keep up with the dedicated actress in front of him.
Of course, there was a deeper reason for him being so angry: he had once wanted Qin Qingshang to be a stand-in...
But now this woman was saying she praised Tao Qiuyun in bed for being fierce and amazing?
This instantly reminded Jiang Lihe of the widely "circulated" rumors online about Qin Qingshang and Tao Qiuyun having a passionate night, after which she got pregnant...
Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could anyone be that fierce!
No, aren't you shameless! You're even using your private matters with Tao Qiuyun to hurt me?!
It must be said, this was quite damaging, especially for him as a man... Lasting all night, is that even human? You women are too outrageous!
"You're shameless!" Jiang Lihe finally burst out after a long pause. "You can say something like that to someone of the opposite sex. You have no sense of shame as a woman at all!"
"That's hilarious. You, a man, think you understand women better than I do?" Qin Qingshang crossed her arms. "You actually feel shame? Did you not attend biology class? Or do you not have a sex life? You're so pitiful~"
"Qin... Qin Qingshang!" Jiang Lihe stumbled back several steps.
"Is that all? Is that all?" The cat continued her barrage of mockery. "That's all you've got, and you come here to argue with me? Let me tell you, I've never lost a debate!"
Hmph! Of course, debates with Qiuqiu in bed don't count, after all, that bad woman just gets straight to it, and the more she talks, the more excited she gets...
Absolutely terrible!
It made her have to secretly watch her while secretly cursing her in her heart.
"Achoo—"
"CEO Tao, do you have a cold?" Zheng Liuyu was very concerned about her boss's health. "The temperature in Mingyang might be a bit higher than in Tianhua City. It should be better once we get there."
"I'm not cold," Tao Qiuyun sat in the back seat of the Ghost, and after Zhang Xunmeng started driving, she said, "I just suddenly sneezed."
"They say one sneeze means someone is thinking of you, two means they're cursing you," Zhang Xunmeng started the car and smiled. "Perhaps Miss Qin is thinking of CEO Tao."
"Is that so?" Tao Qiuyun flipped through documents, chuckling softly. "If Qingshang is thinking of me, that would be wonderful. I miss her very much too, but unfortunately... we won't be able to see each other for a while."
After all, there was simply too much work.
"Huh?" Zhang Xunmeng was startled. While keeping an eye on the road ahead, she said, "Isn't Miss Qin in Mingyang? I thought you, CEO Tao, were going to Mingyang specifically to see her!"
"She's in Mingyang?" Tao Qiuyun suddenly looked up.
The woman's picturesque eyes showed confusion. "How do you know she's in Mingyang?"
"Well... I," Zhang Xunmeng was a little embarrassed. "I actually really like the dramas Ming Siwen acts in. After you, CEO Tao, and Miss Qin went public, the news went viral, even outside the fan circles. Even if you just walk into a coffee shop, you can hear people talking about Miss Qin using bigamy to fight back against the marketing accounts. So I also followed the trend and downloaded Weibo to watch the excitement, no, to check for news, and then I followed Ming Siwen."
She paused, then continued cautiously, "I saw that Ming Siwen's latest Weibo post showed her location as Mingyang, just yesterday. She and Miss Qin should be filming together, right? Did... Miss Qin not tell you, CEO Tao?"
Hearing this, Tao Qiuyun's eyes deepened slightly. "I didn't tell her either that I would be going to Mingyang."
"Then you can give Miss Qin a surprise, CEO Tao," Zheng Liuyu also joined their conversation. "So, CEO Tao, are you still going to the hotel I booked? Or are you going to find Miss Qin?"
"No rush," Tao Qiuyun put down the documents in her hand, neatly organizing them one by one. Her red lips curved slightly. "The conference will last for several days. I'll see her eventually."
Can't be too eager, or it might scare the cat.
Remembering how Qin Qingshang secretly climbed out of bed to pack her luggage, going to the film crew early even with weak legs, the woman clenched her fist against her red lips, hiding the smile at the corner of her mouth...
Qingshang, she's really so cute~
She loves her so much!
