Chapter 332: Helping Fifth Brother Out
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The two-period class quickly passed.
“What are we eating for lunch…”
“You only know how to eat. Why don’t you think about what to do for the exams later?”
The students walked out of the classroom in twos and threes.
Murong Qiao memorized the last point of knowledge. After exhaling in relief, she remembered that her Fifth Brother was still beside her.
However, when she turned around, she met Xian Yu’s gaze. “Fifth Brother?”
She called out in confusion.
“My treat for lunch?” Xian Yu’s eyes curved.
Seeing that his Little Sister was studying so seriously, how could he bear to disturb her?
Murong Qiao naturally agreed. “Alright.”
After the two of them agreed on lunch, Xian Yu waited for Murong Qiao to pack up and walked out together.
At this moment, the sun was shining brightly outside the school building at noon. The sky was bright and clear, making one’s mood improve.
Xian Yu raised his hand to block the sunlight. His gaze landed on the school scene in front of him and he suddenly felt that this was quite good.
Actually, he had never thought that it would be such a happy thing to suddenly have a Little Sister in his world.
“It’s a pity 1 can’t accompany you tonight. Otherwise, my manager might kill me.” Xian Yu said goodbye half-jokingly.
He still had work to do. Although such a life was good, he could not be greedy.
Hence, after lunch, Xian Yu parted ways with Murong Qiao and returned to his studio.
However, unlike the frustration he felt when he left, his mind was filled with inspiration now.
Perhaps he could write a new song…
Seeing that Xian Yu was feeling better, Murong Qiao was also sincerely happy.
However, this did not mean that the scandal would end like this.
After Xian Yu left, Murong Qiao called Xian Yu’s manager and asked for the relevant information.
The director in charge of Xian Yu’s new drama was called Qu Zheng. He was quite famous in the industry, so Murong Qiao simply used the identity of Moon Goddess to arrange a face-to-face meeting with him.
Their meeting was scheduled for the afternoon at Qu Zheng’s studio.
Murong Qiao had just taken a step forward when the assistant who had been waiting at the door walked forward to greet her.
“This way, please.” The assistant led the way for her.
Murong Qiao nodded slightly and followed the other party around the corner to an official and wide conference room. The director, Qu Zheng, was already sitting inside and waiting.
“Young Miss Moon Goddess, I’ve heard a lot about you.” Qu Zheng praised her.
After all, the two books that she wrote were adapted into dramas. Moreover, they were quite popular and were enough to attract Qu Zheng’s attention.
Murong Qiao sat down opposite him and went straight to the point. “How will you clarify the scandal?”
She was here for this, and she could not be bothered to talk to Qu Zheng in a roundabout manner.
“This…” Qu Zheng was slightly surprised.
Murong Qiao’s straightforwardness surprised him, but an instant later, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he did not say anything.
He leaned back and let himself lean against the back of the chair. He sized up Murong Qiao from top to bottom and said casually.
Qu Zheng bent his finger and knocked on the table. “This drama is very good.”
The scandal was harmless to the production team, but Qu Zheng did not care.
Murong Qiao frowned when she heard his words. The frown between her brows appeared and dissipated, as if she had thought of something.
“I can provide a new script.” She was prepared for this.
Murong Qiao also brought “Three Thousand Realms” that she had written some time ago over this time.
She took out the document and placed it on the table. With a little force, she pushed it in front of Qu Zheng.
Qu Zheng did not say anything. He only raised his eyebrows and looked at the piece of information. Then, under Murong Qiao’s gaze, he slowly held it in his hand.
The script that Moon Goddess could produce was definitely not something ordinary.
The sound of paper flipping sounded. Qu Zheng only saw a rough outline before closing it and putting it aside.
He couldn’t help but praise, “The script is good.”
As a director, Qu Zheng naturally had a discerning eye for talent. Therefore, when he saw the script Murong Qiao took out, he couldn’t help but be excited. “So?” Murong Qiao’s gaze landed on his face.
Indeed, she could see the light of interest flickering in Qu Zheng’s eyes, but then it was a pity.
Hearing Qu Zheng’s tone, Murong Qiao frowned subtly, and her eyes turned colder.
Qu Zheng shook his head. “It’s not something a script can solve, young lady.”
His tone sounded like he was talking to a junior, but the meaning of his words was soft, making people feel better for a moment.
Perhaps it was because the script was very good that his attitude towards Murong Qiao was a little more relaxed than before.
“The script is only a part of it. Investment is the key.” Qu Zheng pointed it out.
There were thousands of good scripts. How many of them could be filmed and presented in front of everyone?
Money was the way to go. It was the foundation of their survival.
As he spoke, he looked at Murong Qiao. His original intention was to persuade her to dispel this unrealistic thought.
However, when his gaze landed on Murong Qiao’s overly young appearance, his tone changed.
Qu Zheng’s tone was a little arrogant. “Little girl, do you understand these things?”
Her words carried a hint of underestimation. It was very easy to arouse the anger in people’s hearts.
Qu Zheng probably felt that this girl had written two famous scripts and thought that she was invincible. Therefore, he also wanted her to sober up and not try to resist capitalism.
However, Murong Qiao was not angry. Instead, she took out another business card.
It was a simple business card with a black background and gold on it.
Most importantly, the words “Murong Qiao” on the business card stunned Qu Zheng at a glance.
“I think the director should know what the name Murong represents.”
Murong Qiao only said this, but the shock it brought was enough to make Qu Zheng’s mind blank.
Who didn’t know about the Murong Family?
The contempt in Qu Zheng’s heart was cleared by this business card. In its place, he looked at Murong Qiao with an extremely solemn gaze.
“I’ll clarify the scandal immediately!”
His words were powerful and resounding. Qu Zheng agreed so quickly that he seemed to be afraid that Murong Qiao would go back on her word in the next second.
What a joke. This was the Murong Family.
They were an existence that someone like Qu Zheng could not even come into contact with in his entire life.
Now that the opportunity had even been given to him, he would be a fool to miss it!
In the end, Murong Qiao left the conference room in satisfaction, and the employees of Qu Zheng’s studio also made two surprising discoveries.
After their boss sent Moon Goddess away, he smiled as if he had picked up a bargain.
“The production team is disbanded. This drama in our hands won’t be filmed anymore.”
“All?”
The assistant looked at Qu Zheng in confusion, his heart filled with confusion, but he still had to follow Qu Zheng’s orders.
Following that, Qu Zheng posted a video on his official account.
The video was a segment taken from the production team’s surveillance cameras when Xian Yu and Xi Yiye acted together. They could also hear the director Qu Zheng’s mistakes and the conversations of the surrounding staff.
As soon as the video was released, it was followed by a heated discussion.
“As expected, I knew Xian Yu was still single. Boohoo.”
“I have a faint guess in my heart. Xian Yu definitely doesn’t lack the popularity from this scandal. Then…”
“Xi Yiye is using the picture to hype things up. Ever since the scandal broke out, her fans have increased by hundreds of thousands.”
“No way, I liked her previously…”
As soon as the clarification was released, Weibo exploded again.
However, this time, it was all Xian Yu’s fans who were overjoyed. Previously, they could not hold it in anymore, but now, they could finally speak freely.
Many rational people also came up with their own analysis and pointed their fingers at Xi Yiye.
After all, it was obvious that they were filming in the video. Those with discerning eyes could tell at a glance that someone with ulterior motives had taken the picture from a subtle angle. They had removed the equipment background and wanted to create a scandal..
