Qiao Sixiao finished speaking and then completely ignored her.
"Oh, so you're going to ignore me? Fine, I don't care either," Qin Wei mumbled resentfully.
"Giving up so easily, huh? I'm best at this. Today, we'll just lie here, and whoever gets up first is the loser."
Qin Wei lay down directly, hugging her precious stuffed bear as she continued sleeping.

【I just read the beginning that said QW only stood up for her for self-interest related to her contract termination. Is there a summary rep? This article is too long for me to finish.】
【Class Rep here to summarize! In short:
Anhang had a rich backer, but the backer got tired of QW and terminated the contract.
QW wanted to quickly find a new patron. She first considered cozying up to HuanYi, this big tree, and thought of rekindling that past CP for more hype. Luckily the director stirring things up gave her an opportunity. So QW stood up for the first sister, but her expressions revealed her real ambitions and first sister sees through it all.】
【Wow...Aren't you afraid of being sued for slander...?】
【That's why everyone uses initials and vague references. If you insist on matching them to real people then go ahead and try to sue lol~】
【That actually makes sense! I used to think they had a good relationship. When Qin Wei stood up for her I even cried. Hearing you say this, I'm realizing there's no such thing as pure friendship in this industry.
They're peers, even competitors. Not sabotaging each other is already considered virtuous. Unconditionally defending another...I was too naive!】
【You really are naive, believing whatever others say.】
【Did anyone else notice Qin Wei not looking happy later when reporters interviewed them together? Her whole face spelled jealousy...】
【Now that you mention it I remember! From entering to leaving they barely spoke a word. Think about it, when ordinary friends meet after a long time, even if the relationship is just normal, wouldn't they exchange pleasantries? These two didn't.
And the way Little Qiao looked at her was so cold, you know what I mean...】
【Sisters, I just watched the video cuts and you're right! They seem to really dislike each other. And poor Qin Wei got her role stolen, yet still has to suck up to someone she doesn't like just to get into HuanYi...】
【Not necessarily. I think Qin Wei even argued with the reporters. When they brought up the Qin-Xiao CP she got uncomfortable. Seems she wants to break free from it and have solo fans instead of CP fans.】
【...*speechless* When she's not popular she loves clout chasing. Everyone knows she loves tying herself to others for hype - she's tied to Su Yang before, and Kai Ge, and hyped the most tying to Little Qiao. Many of Little Qiao's fans bought her endorsements to support their idol, 'kay?】

"Granny, wake up."
Qin Wei pushed Qiao Sixiao.
"If you keep sleeping like this you'll disappear. People can't just sleep endlessly. It's already noon..."
Qiao Sixiao sighed and reluctantly opened her eyes to glance at her phone:
"F**k, it really is noon!"
"Mhmm~"
Qin Wei hugged her bear and looked pleadingly at her.
"Can you post something to clarify for me?
Tell everyone that you, this sought after rising Best Actress, and me, this outdated ex-Best Actress, are friends. I don't have that many sinister plots and conspiracies, nor that many rich patrons..."
"The aura of someone who lives off handouts. Eat too many handouts and that kind of mentality develops naturally."
Qiao Sixiao casually responded as she picked up her phone to check the hot searches. Compared to 6AM, there were some changes, but the overall trend was still dissecting how the two of them supposedly had a falling out over trivial matters.
Qiao Sixiao read the commentary from netizens, as well as all those so-called "concrete evidence" videos and images of things she didn't even notice at the time. She was shocked by how observant the netizens were over such subtle details.
"This is the consequence of you and I losing our temper. The netizens aren't wrong either. Your attitude towards me wasn't good at all, so of course they scrutinized the photos and started talking."
Qiao Sixiao sat up and rubbed her eyebrows. Indeed, one shouldn't sleep too long, now her head was spinning.
Qin Wei was rendered speechless. In just one night she had become—
[A former rich man's mistress who is jealous of Qiao Sixiao and wants to cling to her for fame and hype up a CP but also doesn't want to be tied to her and is vicious and calculative]
Although Li Yao's studio accounts tried clearing up rumors, people were set on their narratives.
Even if some marketing accounts went overboard with criticism, gathering evidence and getting lawyers to draft attorney letters were required before initiating legal procedures. Too troublesome and not worth the effort, so most teams didn't bother.
Qin Wei didn't fear false rumors, she just worried they would escalate and affect her life, work or people around her.
So it was best to clarify things ahead of time.
"If I make a post myself then it'll seem deliberately defensive. And if you ignore me that proves we're fighting. If you respond then it's us tying ourselves together...
Either way it's bad for me. Better you post a selfie to let them know we're together, the years are peaceful, we get along harmoniously, safe and happy."
Qiao Sixiao opened her photo album: "Alright, let me dig up a selfie..."
"No!" Qin Wei stopped her.
"You really don't understand these netizens. Their thought process differs from ours, especially CP fans. Every single one descends from detective bloodlines with fiery eyes and discerning vision. If you try passing off fakes they'll expose you in minutes.
The photos in your album were taken previously. Can you guarantee they won't find out?"
Qiao Sixiao turned on her front camera:
"Shut up and come here. We'll take one now."
Qin Wei leaned over.
*Snap*—
They both fell silent looking at the photo.
Morning. Hotel. King bed suite. Casual clothing. Fresh faced.
Didn't seem much like a clarification.
Qiao Sixiao pressed exit:
"Never mind. Let's change first then..."
Qin Wei immediately clarified:
"Hey! Make that clear! Change, as in we're currently wearing pajamas which are too casual for photos.
But our PJs are very conservative, long sleeves, long pants, every button done up properly without showing anything! No room for imagination, got it?"
"Not every button is done up though...who exactly are you trying so hard to convince?"
"Dunno."
Qin Wei shook her head innocently.
"I just feel I have to make it clear, otherwise people think up weird things..."
