“Hmm, Mr. Gu asked… Well, I told him as you instructed me. He believed me. Miss, I think you should let Mr. Gu know that you brought him home and took care of him all night. Why are you so sure that he’ll get mad if he hears about it?” the housekeeper said.
Qin Zhi’ai, on the other end of the line, listened to the housekeeper as she stared at the bright sunlight outside of the window. She thought for a while before she said, “He was sad. It isn’t necessary to make him mad if we aren’t sure what his reaction will be.”
Even though Qin Zhi’ai talked very calmly and didn’t sound sad, the housekeeper still felt bad for her.
“Miss, you used to bug Mr. Gu for no reason,” the housekeeper said.
She hadn’t used to think Miss was considerate. She had thought Miss hadn’t liked Mr. Gu with her full heart. She had felt that Miss had only liked the glory and social status Mr. Gu could bring her and wanted to take advantage of him.
The housekeeper dozed as she held the phone before she smiled and changed the topic. “Miss, you probably don’t know, but Mr. Gu really likes your cooking. He ate a lot more than usual today.”
A smile crawled onto Qin Zhi’ais face when she heard it. She chit-chatted with the housekeeper for a few minutes before she hung up the phone.
Qin Zhi’ai had forgotten to charge her phone before she left the house, so she looked for her charger and plugged it into the outlet. The door was pushed open.
It was Zhou Jin, and she looked angry. “Great, I was about to call you to ask you out. It’s great you’re in the company today.”
In contrast to Zhou Jin’s temper, Qin Zhi’ai looked extremely calm. She placed her cell phone on the table and responded, “What’s wrong?”
“I have been so furious for the past few days,” Zhou Ji threw her purse on the sofa and complained immediately. “Did you know we’re going to start to shoot a new show, set in ancient times? The one you were paid 100 million for.”
Qin Zhi’ai nodded but didn’t say anything back.
“This TV show has two main actresses. One is you, and the other one is Lin Yi. When we negotiated the contract with them, they agreed that you would have more lines than her. Now, Lin Yi, that b*tch, has hundreds of millions in investment from somewhere. The new script cut a lot of your lines. You’re more popular than her. This TV show depends on the main actor and you being popular. If your lines are cut, but this show gets popular after being broadcasted, you will have basically become her stepping stone.” Zhou Jin lifted her hand to brush her hair with her fingers in anger. She stared outside the window for a while before she made up her mind. “Let’s do this. You go see Mr. Gu.”
Qin Zhi’ai frowned and asked, “Gu Yusheng?”
“Yes, Gu Yusheng.” Zhou Jin nodded hard, but then shook her head again. “No, it won’t work. Gu Yusheng can handle it. The issue is that he probably won’t agree to do it if it’s you who asks for help. Xiaokou used to see Gu Yusheng’s grandpa when she had any trouble. You need to go see Gu Yusheng’s grandpa. He’ll help you. Once Gu Yusheng’s grandpa agrees to help, Gu Yusheng will definitely help you.”
