Chapter 427 She has something to do
Ma Susu glanced at the door of the lounge nervously, raised her finger and made a silencing gesture to Chen Li: "Ali, be careful. If this gets to Teacher Lu Qiang's ears, it will be terrible."
As she spoke, she moved closer, lowering her voice so that only the two of them could hear, "I heard that he has very powerful connections. If young people like us who have just entered the industry and have no background offend him by mistake, we will probably be banned."
Lu Qiang has been in the industry for decades and has been very successful both in the entertainment industry and in the capital market. This circle values seniority the most, and anyone who meets him has to give him some face.
Chen Li knew it, so she didn't dare say much about Lu Qiang, and at the moment she was just trying to protect Ma Susu.
"I know." Chen Li nodded: "I'm just giving you some advice. I really think Teacher Hu Ye is more suitable."
Upon hearing this, Ma Susu looked rather embarrassed and said, "But Teacher Lu has already said that he will help me. If I rashly go to Teacher Hu Ye, wouldn't that be a bit of a slap in the face for Teacher Lu? What if he gets angry?"
Chen Li was choked for a moment, because Ma Susu's worries were justified.
Ma Susu slapped her thigh and said cheerfully, "Oh, why think about all this? I can ask Teacher Lu for advice first. If that doesn't work for me, I can ask Teacher Hu Ye for advice. They're all seniors anyway, so they definitely know more than me. I'll definitely gain something if I ask them all."
Without waiting for Chen Li to respond, Ma Susu stood up and said, "Ali, I'm going to prepare for the scene first. I look forward to our scenes together!"
"Sister Susu..."
Chen Li tried to call out, but Ma Susu seemed not to hear her. She opened the door and ran away quickly.
"Ali, what's wrong with you?"
Xiaoyun noticed that Chen Li's expression was not right, as if she was worried about something. She couldn't help but walk over and ask, "Why is there such an expression?"
Chen Li glanced at Xiao Yun, then shook her head slightly. She tightened her grip on the milk tea cup slightly, then suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go check out the set."
"You don't have any scenes this afternoon. It's very hot outside." Xiaoyun was surprised, but Chen Li had already left the lounge without looking back. Seeing this, Xiaoyun hurriedly turned around, grabbed a bottle of sunscreen and a parasol, and chased after him: "Wait a minute..."
On the set, when Chen Li arrived, the preparations for the next scene were already underway.
Ji Chuhe was there too.
When she saw Chen Li coming, she took the initiative to greet her: "Xiao A Li, don't you have no show this afternoon?"
When Chen Li saw Ji Chuhe, it was as if she had found her backbone. She quickly walked over and whispered nervously, "Sister Chuhe, I have something to tell you."
Ji Chuhe couldn't help but frown when she saw her expression. Her natural instinct made her ask, "Did that old pervert Lu Qiang harass you?"
Chen Li quickly shook her head, pulled Ji Chuhe to a deserted corner, and quietly told her what had just happened.
When Ji Chuhe heard this, he immediately said with a look of certainty, "He definitely has no good intentions. Ah Li, let me tell you, there are a lot of old perverts in our circle. You really need to be careful in the future and avoid any contact with the opposite sex alone."
Chen Li said anxiously: "I know Sister Chuhe, but what about Sister Susu now?"
If she really went to see Lu Qiang alone in private, what would happen if something unexpected happened?
Unlike Shen Li, who was genuinely worried about Ma Susu, Ji Chuhe's expression was very calm. She looked at Shen Li and asked, "A Li, do you think Ma Susu doesn't know what Lu Qiang is up to?"
Chen Li was stunned by the question.
"Sister Chuhe, what do you mean by that?" Chen Li said in horror, "Are you saying that Sister Susu knows..."
Ji Chuhe shook her head: "I didn't say that, but we are all adults, and it's not her first day in the industry. She might not be unaware of some things."
Chen Li's expression was complicated, her mouth half open, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
Seeing her expression, Ji Chuhe couldn't help but sigh softly. "Little Ah Li, your innocence and kindness are very valuable qualities, but the entertainment industry is a big melting pot. Although I can't bear it, you will eventually understand some of the cruel rules and unspoken rules. People's hearts are complicated, especially when faced with desires, and using any means necessary is the norm."
Chen Li got goosebumps when she heard that.
This is too scary. Lu Qiang is already in his sixties or seventies!
Ji Chuhe raised his hand and gently placed it on Shen Li's shoulder, then added, "I don't want to speculate about her like this, but if she volunteered, you rashly helping her would ruin her plans. Not only would she not be grateful to you, she might even blame you."
Chen Li's mind flashed back to the scene of meeting Liu Hao at the door of Lu Qiang's room that night.
Yes, there are people who are willing to deliver it to your door.
But Sister Susu...
"But what if she doesn't know..." Chen Li murmured, "Should we just let her fall into the tiger's mouth?"
She didn't believe that Sister Susu and Liu Hao were the same kind of people.
Ji Chuhe shook her head slightly: "I don't know, because I don't know her, but if I were you, I wouldn't interfere in this matter."
Chen Li stood there in a daze. Sister Chu He's words were too impactful. Every word was contrary to her three views. She needed some time to digest and understand.
Ji Chuhe felt a little distressed and patted her shoulder gently: "It's really hard for you to force yourself to accept these things that destroy your world view."
But these are just the surface of the entertainment industry, which most people know and secretly abide by.
The longer you are in the industry, the deeper you will be in it and the more you will see.
Those unknown, darker and more shameful things were probably beyond Chen Li's imagination.
"Three preparations, the actors are in place"!
The field controller shouted and pulled the distracted Shen Li back to her senses.
"I have to go to film. It's too hot. Xiao Ali, you should go back to the lounge and rest." Ji Chuhe finally said this with a smile and went to the set.
Chen Li turned her head and saw Ma Susu talking to the lewd old man Lu Qiang on the set. She looked perfectly fine, so fine that it seemed as if no one needed to worry about her.
"Ali, put on some sunscreen quickly. The ultraviolet rays are very strong today. You can't stand outside like this." Xiaoyun came up to them as soon as she saw that the two had finished talking, and said that she was going to apply sunscreen to Chenli.
Chen Li came back to her senses and raised her hand to gently stop Xiaoyun's actions.
Xiaoyun looked up at her in confusion. Chen Li hesitated and struggled for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Don't stand outside anymore. Let's go back."
Her unusual condition was truly worrying, but Xiaoyun was completely baffled: "Ali, are you okay?"
Chen Li looked at her, unable to utter the words "It's okay".
She has something going on, something that she doesn't understand at all.
