Guo Yuyang said whatever he wanted, and Shen Qingqing agreed with him very admiringly, which made him feel very satisfied.
Although she was just a small actor, it would be difficult to gain popularity from her, and there was even a chance she could gain popularity from him, but she was young and pretty! Most importantly, she didn't hide her liking for him at all.
As Guo Yuyang spoke, he secretly glanced at Shen Qingqing's reaction:
"Actually, my driving skills have always been very good, during the day and at night too. Do you want to go out and try?"
Shen Qingqing tilted her head, looking at Guo Yuyang in confusion:
"Brother? Is the filming location that far? Driving until night?"
She didn't get the hint...
But!
She looked so cute like this!!!
Guo Yuyang admitted that at that moment, his heart stirred. If it was her, having her as a girlfriend would also be fine!
He couldn't just sweet talk his girlfriend, he would have to be patient and develop feelings with her, make her willing on her own accord!
He must take advantage of her good impression of him now and take the initiative:
"Cough! Umm, I was just kidding, it's just around the corner. Umm... When we get there... You go rest first, don't be afraid of Qin Wei, I will take good care of you!"
The car stopped at the hotel entrance. Shen Qingqing smiled at him, smiling purely and cleanly:
"Thank you, brother!"
As she spoke, she got out of the car and waved back at him.
Guo Yuyang's heart stirred as he sat in the car, reminiscing for a long time about Shen Qingqing's innocent expression and her pure smile.
Qin Wei was good-looking but too cold. He still preferred gentle girls like Qingqing who understood boys' minds.
"Qingqing, don't be afraid, brother will definitely protect you!"
...
"Why is it two single beds?"
Shen Qingqing raised the question.
"And it looks so shabby?"
Upon entering the room, Shen Qingqing immediately started picking faults.
Qin Wei sat on the bed organizing her luggage while answering her questions:
"It's a bit far from the city here, but only ten minutes by car to the grasslands. This is the best hotel in town. It's simple but also clean."
Shen Qingqing started throwing tantrums at Qin Wei:
"I don't want to sleep in a single bed, I want a double bed!"
Qin Wei rolled her eyes at her:
"You said on the road you wanted to stay with me so I had Li Yao change it to a double room. Fine, fine, you have money so you make the rules. Give me the money and I'll have Li Yao open another room for you..."
Shen Qingqing continued with her tantrum:
"I don't want to stay alone, I want you to get another room!"
Qin Wei: "..."
Qin Wei continued sorting out clothes from her luggage, completely ignoring the tantrum-throwing Shen Qingqing.
"Ugh, so annoying. I'm going to take a shower! To wash away the bad luck from the road!"
Realizing that making trouble was futile, Shen Qingqing made up an excuse to go to the bathroom.
Calling it a bathroom was overstating it. It was just a shower stall.
Shen Qingqing came out again and looked at Qin Wei's luggage:
"I didn't bring luggage. Lend me your shower gel, shampoo, and also give me a change of your clothes."
Qin Wei handed over the toiletries readily:
"One hundred, first time."
A thief never misses an opportunity to steal, so Shen Qingqing was already used to it. She took out her phone and paid her one hundred, but still felt speechless, just speechless!
After collecting the money, Qin Wei smiled with satisfaction and casually took out a new set of underwear to hand over:
"Two thousand."
Shen Qingqing took them, a brand new set of new CK models, worth about 1,400 yuan. So Qin Wei was only overcharging her by 600 yuan, which was showing restraint on her part already.
"OK."
Shen Qingqing paid nonetheless.
Qin Wei's smile grew even wider. Indeed! The PR freebies the brands gifted could come in handy at critical moments!
Got my money back!
"Three thousand for the T-shirt, three thousand for the pants, three thousand for the shoes."
Qin Wei enthusiastically selected an outfit and handed it to her.
Shen Qingqing was starting to get unhappy now:
"The shampoo and shower gel are consumables, I've already given them to you. And the underwear, I won't return them to you after wearing them, but I've paid you for those too. But the shirt, pants and shoes I'm only wearing for a day!"
As she spoke, Shen Qingqing took over the clothes and pants and snuck another glance at the shoes on the floor.
The shoes and pants were brand new. But the shirt...
"You've worn that GUCCI T-shirt so many times on the set. I've seen it on you at least eight hundred times! How dare you still jack up the price!
And the pants and shoes were gifts from Jo Lao, right? You profiteering reseller!
How did you suddenly become so stingy! Last time you even gave me a skirt for free!"
"Then forget it if you don't want them." Qin Wei reached to take them back.
"I want them, I do, I do!"
Shen Qingqing hugged the clothes and pants and went into the bathroom annoyed, "Humph!"
Just to wash a simple bath, Shen Qingqing spent so much money for the first time.
...
After her shower, Shen Qingqing saw that Qin Wei had already fallen asleep. She called her assistant and asked her to hurry and bring her luggage over. She quickly tidied up and then heard a knock at the door. Guo Yuyang stood at the door when it opened.
"Qingqing, hungry? I'll take you out for a meal."
"Shh..."
Shen Qingqing pointed to the room indicating that Qin Wei was still sleeping, then told him to wait for her at the door.
After closing the room door, Shen Qingqing called her assistant again:
"Don't come over yet. Don't worry about the luggage either, stay on standby at home. I'll let you know when to come over!"
Leaving a note for Qin Wei, Shen Qingqing went out.
...
Qin Wei slept a nice afternoon nap and felt a lot of her fatigue go away. Glancing at the time, she had slept for four hours.
Li Liang came over to deliver meals, holding two portions but not seeing any trace of Shen Qingqing.
"No need to look for her, the note says she's gone out to rob the sheep."
Qin Wei took a look at the note Shen Qingqing left behind:
"Don't bother about my dinner, I've gone out to rob the sheep."
The "rob" character was written incorrectly first, as the character for "pull out" then crossed out. Then the cursive variant was written, then also crossed out. Finally the "pull out" character plus "insult" was written.
Although she couldn't recognize the characters, Qin Wei could guess the meaning.
Qin Wei asked Li Liang to stay and eat with her, but Li Liang was clearly making all kinds of excuses trying to leave.
These past two days she had been acting strangely, working earnestly and responsibly as always, but when looking at her, her gaze was cautious, seemingly...
Afraid of her?
"Li Liang, did I do something wrong?"
Seeing the hurt in her eyes, Qin Wei felt a little distressed.
Li Liang shook her head and waved her hands:
"No, no. Sis, don't think too much. This is my first time being an artist's assistant, maybe I still haven't done many things well enough..."
"Is it because I scolded you when I was drunk?"
Recalling that night when Qin Wei was very fierce, Li Liang suddenly broke down at her question:
"Wah... Sis, your eyes were so fierce and scary that night..."
Only then did Qin Wei react. She got up and hugged her little assistant, patting her back:
"I just remembered this point. You told me earlier but I didn't believe you then. Sorry, sorry, it was my mistake.
I even told Jo Lao before, when you drink too much alcohol, your central nervous system gets excited, so self-defense mechanisms and emotional inhibition become weaker...
I know I don't handle alcohol that well, but don't worry. I normally don't drink. No next time, okay? Don't cry. I'll give you one of the bear hair ties I bought, okay?"
After her consolation, the little assistant's emotions finally calmed down. She no longer dwelled on the night when drunk Qin Wei scolded her. Sitting on the sofa playing with the bear hair tie, Li Liang softly asked Qin Wei:
"Sis, this hair tie is so cute but too childish. Can you wear it out?"
Imagining her looks, temperament (only referring to when she's not speaking), wearing a bear hair tie, Li Liang felt it would have an impact.
"I can!"
Qin Wei nodded very firmly and tied up her hair with her own hair tie.
It had to be said, the plush little bear in her hair made her aloofness mixed with a bit of cuteness.
"But Li Yao doesn't want me wearing it out."
Qin Wei patted Li Liang's shoulder and earnestly told her,
"But as my assistant, always have it on you. It will make me happy to look at. If it makes the boss happy, a raise and promotion will come before you know it!"
"I'm back!"
Shen Qingqing opened the door and walked in with piles of shopping bags.
