Chapter 21 The Most Curious Thing



As soon as Ye Qing turned around, she heard Liang Lu say behind her, "What do you know?"

Although Xu Xiaoyue and Ye Shuang didn't get along, Xu Xiaoyue couldn't care less about Ye Shuang at this moment and quickly stood next to Ye Qing.

Although Ye Qing had her doubts and was a little scared, she had a clear understanding in her mind that it didn't matter if she didn't film today, or even if she didn't film in the future, as long as she didn't implicate Xu Xiaoyue.

So she gave Xu Xiaoyue a reassuring look, then glanced at Liang Lu's half-smiling expression, and said, "I know I probably won't be able to film today. I'm going to change my clothes."

Liang Lu paused for a moment and said, "Who said you can't film it?"

Ye Qing was a little surprised and exchanged a glance with Xu Xiaoyue, who was equally surprised. Then Ye Qing noticed Ye Shuang, who was standing next to Liang Lu, looking at Xu Xiaoyue and herself with jealousy and resentment. Ye Qing said, "I can choose not to film today, but please don't make things difficult for my classmate."

If she hadn't met Xi Quan, Ye Qing probably wouldn't have said that, since she knew all too well what would happen if an egg clashed head-on with a rock.

But now... it seems that Liang Lu has a good relationship with Xi Quan, and although Ye Qing feels that he has nothing to do with Xi Quan, Xi Quan's attitude is indeed puzzling.

However, Ye Qing didn't have time to investigate Xi Quan's attitude. Although she didn't want to have any more contact with the people of Xiaoyao Village, the situation was special now. A smart person knows to use others' strength against them and won't fight a losing battle. Since she could "borrow the tiger's power," Ye Qing wouldn't pretend to be aloof.

Therefore, no matter what, Ye Qing cannot cause trouble for Xu Xiaoyue.

After she finished explaining her "request," Ye Qing noticed that Liang Lu glanced at Ye Shuang. She was a little nervous, but Liang Lu didn't pretend to be serious. He glanced at Ye Shuang and then looked away.

Soon Ye Qing heard Liang Lu speak up: "You and your classmate didn't do anything wrong, so why should I make things difficult for you? Besides, although I don't know your classmate's name, he looks familiar because he's taken a lot of calendar photos, right? His on-camera presence should be pretty good, so I have even less reason to make things difficult for you, do I?"

Hearing Liang Lu say that, Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Xu Xiaoyue, and told her not to worry.

Xu Xiaoyue's gratitude towards Ye Qing was palpable, or rather, it was a joy at not having made the wrong friend.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Liang Lu, and I'm a photographer. If I find any suitable candidates in the future, I'll definitely contact you."

Upon hearing Liang Lu's self-introduction and seeing his outstretched hand, Ye Qing quickly reached out and shook hands with him: "My name is Ye Qing, and this is my classmate, Xu Xiaoyue."

Liang Lu shook hands with Xu Xiaoyue, then looked at Ye Qing again and asked with a smile, "Let's exchange contact information so we can stay in touch."

Brother Li remained silent, but judging from the situation, he knew that Liang Lu wanted to promote Xu Xiaoyue and Ye Qing, or more precisely, he wanted to promote Ye Qing.

Thinking that Ye Qing's arrival must be related to him, he quickly gave Liang Lu Xu Xiaoyue's pager number.

The connection between Brother Li and Ye Qing was also through Xu Xiaoyue.

Xu Xiaoyue had been out in the world for a while and quickly understood the situation. Following Li Ge's words, she repeated her pager number: "I share a dorm with Ye Qing. I can help pass on any messages."

Ye Qing didn't object to Xu Xiaoyue giving Liang Lu her pager number; after all, it was Xu Xiaoyue's number, and Ye Qing had no right to demand anything from her.

Ye Qing also hoped to help Xu Xiaoyue, but when she saw that Ye Shuang's expression had become even more distorted after Xu Xiaoyue gave her number, Ye Qing frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Ye Qing had no intention of offending Ye Shuang, but judging from Ye Shuang's expression, it seemed that Ye Qing had already regarded her and Xu Xiaoyue as imaginary enemies. Ye Qing had no reason to avoid them. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed Liang Lu's gaze on her. Ye Qing belatedly realized that she was wearing a shirt, so she moved behind Xu Xiaoyue.

Then Ye Qing heard Liang Lu say, "Change your clothes. This is your first time filming, and I'm afraid you won't be photogenic. Forget about the swimsuit."

Before Ye Qing could say anything, Brother Li quickly interjected, "Okay, Xiaoyue, take your classmate to pick out some clothes. Choose something similar to your style."

Ye Qing glanced at the dress Xu Xiaoyue had changed into and breathed a sigh of relief. The dress was alright; at least things weren't so agonizing anymore.

Xu Xiaoyue was afraid they would change their minds again, so she quickly pulled Ye Qing to choose clothes.

After Ye Qing changed, she came out to find Xu Xiaoyue waiting outside with the shirt Ye Qing had just worn. Ye Qing asked, puzzled, "What...?"

"I've been thinking about it, so I'll wear a swimsuit. The original plan for today was to shoot two different styles. Although Brother Li didn't say anything, I still need to make money by taking photos in the future, so I can't let people think I'm too conventional."

Xu Xiaoyue's words made Ye Qing very embarrassed: "Xiaoyue, I..."

"No, Ye Qing, please don't feel embarrassed. I'm an art major, you know, this is my livelihood. Besides, I've done swimsuit shoots before, it's nothing. You're different, you're just earning pocket money. Besides, I'm also benefiting from your success today. Didn't you hear Liang Lu say that he'll contact us again if there are any suitable opportunities? If I can get on a magazine, especially a popular movie magazine, that would be great. So I won't let any opportunity slip by."

People are different, and Ye Qing could understand Xu Xiaoyue's thoughts, so she didn't say anything more and went to wait for Xu Xiaoyue.

The place where they took photos was a large photo studio set up in an old factory building. Since there were swimsuits, they definitely needed to include some beach and sea scenery. The backgrounds weren't finished yet, so they had to wait on the side. Ye Qing found a corner to stand in the way so as not to get in the way.

As soon as Ye Qing walked over, he smelled smoke. He glanced around and realized that the place he was standing in was separated from the outside by a wall made of corrugated iron sheets with gaps in the middle, so it was normal to smell smoke. Ye Qing lifted his foot to move to the side, but before he could move, he heard someone outside say, "Hey, what's your relationship with that Ye Qing guy?"

Upon hearing his name, Ye Qing stopped. He recognized the speaker as Liang Lu.

Although Ye Qing didn't know who the person with Liang Lu was, he guessed from their conversation that it was Xi Quan.

However, Xi Quan remained silent.

Ye Qing then heard Liang Lu ask, "You know people in the industry are all wondering why you married a girl from the countryside back then, but that's all in the past now. You know what I'm most curious about now?"

This time, Xi Quan didn't remain silent. Ye Qing immediately heard Xi Quan's voice: "What?"

"Judging from what Xu Xiaoyue said, it seems like you got divorced because of Ye Qing? Is that true?"
