Chapter 403 Having obtained their marriage certificate, they are now a legally married couple.
"Is that so?" Shen Qingshu glanced at Qiu Yuanyuan's bag. "Miss Lin is a newcomer. Before entering the industry, she was a psychological counselor for autistic children. Logically speaking, people who can do such a job should have very stable emotions."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yuanyuan was taken aback.
"I suppose there's some misunderstanding between you two." Shen Qingshu smiled faintly. "Then let's meet and talk it out face to face. Otherwise, since we'll be working together in the same production crew in the future, it's better to clear up any misunderstandings as soon as possible."
Before Qiu Yuanyuan could speak, Shen Qingshu had already pushed open the ward door.
In the ward, Lin Yunian sat on the hospital bed, one of her forearms wrapped in thick gauze.
Lin Yunian was somewhat surprised to see Shen Qingshu. "President Shen."
She made a move to get out of bed, but Shen Qingshu stopped her, saying, "You should sit down. Don't move around while you're injured."
Lin Yunian stopped, looked at Shen Qingshu, and was slightly moved. "President Shen, I'm sorry, I've delayed the crew."
Shen Qingshu spoke in a businesslike manner, "You really shouldn't have acted impulsively. It's a small matter that you're delaying the crew, but you'll be the one who suffers if you get hurt."
"I was furious too." Lin Yunian's eyes reddened. "It's one thing for Qiu Yuanyuan to keep slandering me, but she even said that the director is my teacher and benefactor. He has donated most of the money he has earned from filming over the years to orphanages. He is selfless and loving. What right does Qiu Yuanyuan have to humiliate me?"
"Lin Yunian, what are you saying!"
Qiu Yuanyuan rushed in, pointed at Lin Yunian, and angrily said, "When did I humiliate the director?"
Lin Yunian stared at her, "Didn't you say that I was having an affair with the director? The director is a married man. What you're saying is just slandering the director for cheating, isn't it?"
"You, stop talking nonsense! When did I say you had an affair with the director? I just said that a newcomer like you with no background and no formal training could get the lead role right away. You must have used some shady means to curry favor with the director!"
After she finished speaking, Qiu Yuanyuan herself was stunned.
Shen Qingshu and Lin Yunian looked at her.
Qiu Yuanyuan suddenly realized that she had been tricked!
But when she remembered that she was recording a video, she quickly calmed down.
Videos can be edited.
"Lin Yunian, if you were innocent, you wouldn't be so angry!" Qiu Yuanyuan glared at Lin Yunian. "I heard you're an orphan. Someone like you with no background, how could you suddenly switch from being an autism therapist to an actress? Not just me, everyone else thinks it's abnormal. The leap is too big. How could it be possible without some inside story!"
Lin Yunian frowned, about to speak, but Shen Qingshu spoke first.
“The reason Ms. Lin came to act is to raise money for the children of Xingxing Welfare Home.” Shen Qingshu looked at Qiu Yuanyuan. “Huanxing is the main investor in this movie. When the director was casting the female lead, he recommended Ms. Lin to me. To be honest, at first, I felt the same way as you, Ms. Qiu, that it was too risky to cast a complete newcomer without formal training as the female lead in a movie.”
Qiu Yuanyuan frowned, "Then why do you still need her?"
“She is indeed a newcomer, but she does have a talent for acting. Also, I have been to that orphanage and met the children there. Most of them are autistic or born with congenital defects and were abandoned by their parents. I had planned to sponsor them before, but for various reasons, it fell through. I met Ms. Lin at the orphanage. So, if I had to say that there is any inside story behind Ms. Lin, I think it must be that her love for those children moved me, so I made an exception and used her.”
“This, how is this possible…” Qiu Yuanyuan frowned as she looked at Shen Qingshu.
She never expected that Shen Qingshu and Lin Yunian would have such a connection!
Shen Qingshu lowered her eyes to stare at her bag, then looked up to meet Qiu Yuanyuan's gaze. "Miss Qiu, have you finished recording?"
Qiu Yuanyuan was taken aback.
Shen Qingshu gently patted her bag. "Unfortunately, I was recording too!"
Qiu Yuanyuan's expression changed drastically!
"Qiu Yuanyuan, go back and discuss with your agent how to handle the public relations next." Shen Qingshu looked at her. "From now on, Huanxing has signed Lin Yunian. Tell your agent that I don't care how you want to create hype or go for black-and-white fame, but in the future, if you see any of Huanxing's artists in the industry, please take a detour."
Qiu Yuanyuan practically fled in panic.
After everyone left, Lin Yunian spoke up, "President Chen, thank you for helping me. I know that my abilities are only average in all aspects and not enough to sign with Huanxing, so don't worry, I won't take what you just said seriously."
Shen Qingshu glanced at her and asked, "You said before that you would go back to the orphanage after filming and didn't plan to enter the entertainment industry. Do you still have that idea now?"
“Hmm.” Lin Yunian nodded. “I never wanted to be a star. This time it’s because of the director and the child. Of course, I don’t dislike making movies, especially documentaries. I think they are more meaningful than commercial films.”
"Then you can sign a film and television contract with Huanxing. Apart from making movies, you don't have to participate in anything else. Huanxing will tailor a team for you, mainly to maintain your image."
Lin Yunian stared blankly at Shen Qingshu, "Is it really possible?"
"This kind of treatment is usually reserved for top-tier actors and actresses, but this time, I'll make an exception for you, just for the sake of those kids."
Lin Yunian's nose tingled with emotion. "President Shen, thank you so much. I thank you on behalf of those children!"
"Back then, I abandoned those children because of another investor. Now, this outcome is a way for me to give them an explanation."
Shen Qingshu smiled slightly, "You should focus on recovering first. I'll have my assistant arrange for someone to come and take care of you when I get back. As for Qiu Yuanyuan, don't worry about her. She's just a supporting actress; we can replace her."
"Thank you, Mr. Shen!" Lin Yunian sniffed. "Don't worry, I will definitely act well, and I will not let you and the director down!"
“I’m counting on this documentary to win an award, so you really need to give it your best.” Shen Qingshu glanced at the time. “Then I’ll be going.”
"Mr. Shen, let me see you off..."
"Just take good care of yourself." Shen Qingshu patted her shoulder, turned around and left.
…
Qiu Yuanyuan has been replaced. Huanxing's official account issued an announcement, first acknowledging Lin Yunian and disclosing Qiu Yuanyuan's questionable actions. At the same time, they officially announced the new second female lead - Huanxing's currently popular actress Lin Xiaoyue.
Meanwhile, at the North City Civil Affairs Bureau.
Han Mingyu and Qi Mingxuan walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The two of them each had a red marriage certificate, making them a legally married couple.
Qi Mingxuan stared at the marriage certificate in her hand, feeling like she was dreaming.
But such a thing was something she had never even dared to dream of...
Han Mingyu's phone vibrated. He took it out and glanced at it; it was an unfamiliar number.
He hung up and turned to look at Qi Mingxuan. "Qi Yue has told the elders in the family about our marriage registration. They said that we can skip the wedding, but since we've registered, you're the young mistress of the Han family, and you should at least go back to attend the family banquet."
Qi Mingxuan looked up at Han Mingyu and asked, "When?"
"Tonight." Han Mingyu snatched her marriage certificate. "Grandma said to give it to her for safekeeping, so I'll take it back to her first."
Qi Mingxuan: "..."
Han Mingyu stuffed the two marriage certificates into his pocket. "Let's go, I'll take you back to the Qi family home to get your luggage first."
Qi Mingxuan nodded.
They had promised Qi Yue that they would live together.
From now on, Qi Mingxuan will move into the Han family's house.
The two got into the car, and Han Mingyu drove directly to the Qi family's house.
Upon arriving at the Qi family home, Qi Mingxuan went inside to pack her luggage.
Han Mingyu waited for her in the car.
Just then, the phone rang again.
It was still that unfamiliar number.
He hung up, and the other party called again.
It's never going to end.
Han Mingyu finally lost his patience and answered the phone: "Who is this?"
"Mr. Han, it's me." A gentle woman's voice came from the phone: "Lin Xiaoyue, do you remember me?"
