Listening to the pitiful and clever words of comfort for Xiao Ling, Qiao Zhen's anger subsided considerably. 【(?????)('ω')(ε:)(.ω.)(:3 ) Here you go, here you go, it was my fault just now.】
Xiao Ling: [(，，??.??，，) It's okay, thank you Zhenzhen.]
Qiao Zhen: [Don't worry, although I can't guess your purpose, your mission is similar to ours and won't have much impact on me, so I won't give up easily. I was just saying that in anger, don't take it too seriously.]
Previously, when the God Taibai asked Qiao Zhen whether she should pursue the path of winning hearts or the path of martial arts, she chose the path of winning hearts. Although she wanted to develop a relationship and feelings with her mission targets, such as comrades-in-arms or close friends, she inevitably veered towards romantic love.
Qiao Zhen was very self-aware. She knew that the first mission followed a romantic route, and the possibility of changing course afterward was practically zero. This was why she started to soften her stance in Chu Zhao's mission, but gave up entirely in Pan Zhao's.
Moreover, she currently has no powerful backing or a signed company, so she can only rely on herself to make a living in the entertainment industry. That's why she's been working even harder lately!
Qiao Zhen now just wanders around the film set whenever she has free time. When she has scenes to film, she goes to change clothes and put on makeup. When she doesn't have scenes to film, she sits on the set playing King of Glory. Anyway, she loves the film set, and the film set is her home now.
Before, she had to get up early every day to go to the hospital to check on Xu Li's mother's complexion for his sake, and then fly to Zhejiang Province to film. Her complexion had deteriorated a lot. Now that nothing bothers her, she has gained a few pounds from eating, drinking and having fun.
Five months have passed in the blink of an eye, and filming for "The Legend of Concubine Mao" has wrapped up. The editing process will likely take several more months.
It's the beginning of the new year, and Qiao Zhen doesn't have much to do. She took Xiao Ling's advice and started investing in stocks. The money seemed to be pouring into her account like crazy.
But Qiao Zhen doesn't know how to manage money, so she directly appointed Xiao Ling as her financial planner, making her investments risk-free, oh yeah!
She would occasionally run into Xu Li in Beijing. For example, right now, Qiao Zhen heard that the latest limited edition lipstick had been released, so she went to the counter to try it on.
Xu Li was accompanying Yu Kewei to try out cosmetics when Yu Kewei saw Qiao Zhen and greeted her, "Long time no see, Miss Qiao. I haven't heard from you much lately."
Qiao Zhen casually picked up a mocha-colored lipstick and looked at Yu Kewei and Xu Li. "Long time no see. I'll be taking a break for a while, so I don't have any new dramas."
Yu Kewei picked up a tube of lipstick as if by accident and said, "I always feel that mocha color doesn't match Miss Qiao's radiance. How about trying maple brick red?"
Qiao Zhen used a cotton swab to apply mocha-colored lipstick to the deeper lines of her lips and around the edge of her lips. Then she used a cotton swab to fill in the maple brick red color on her lips and blended the color into a gradient. "You see," she said, "sometimes what seems most unsuitable can be surprisingly delightful when paired with what seems most suitable."
She looked at the waiter and said, "Could you please wrap up those two colors for me?"
Yu Kewei wrapped her arms around Xu Li's arm, asserting her territorial rights while also showing off to Qiao Zhen, "A Li, which color do you think would look good on me?"
Xu Li stared blankly at Qiao Zhen's face, feeling a sense of déjà vu. "You look good in any color."
Yu Kewei sensed the perfunctoriness in his words, but still feigned shyness and said, "How can you be so sweet-talking?"
These words made Xu Li momentarily dazed. It seemed as if someone had once said he had a sweet tongue, but that person wasn't Yu Kewei. "Am I sweet-tongued? Who else have I ever been sweet-tongued to before?"
Yu Kewei said with some dissatisfaction, "Maybe he was sweet to Miss Qiao too."
Seeing that the conflict was about to reach her, Qiao Zhen immediately replied, "No, Mr. Xu has never been sweet-talking me. Mr. Xu and I have very clear goals, and we don't play those empty tricks. I still have places to visit, goodbye."
Yu Kewei watched Qiao Zhen's departing figure, and of course she was angry. It was all her fault for being reborn too late, before Xu Li had any physical needs. But so what? Since heaven had given her a second chance, she was determined to seize it. "It seems Miss Qiao really does have a clear purpose; she left quite decisively."
"Hmm." Xu Li replied perfunctorily. He turned to look at Qiao Zhen's departing figure, feeling that something was amiss.
After returning home, Qiao Zhen felt she couldn't just sit idly by, so that evening, she made a V-shape with both hands above her head, took a picture, and posted it on Weibo with the caption: "I'm a fairy!"
Xu Li was looking at some documents in his study when his phone suddenly rang. It was the phone in his desk drawer that he hadn't used since he was discharged from the hospital. He unlocked it with his fingerprint and looked at the special contacts in Bo Lu's chat list. It was Qiao Zhen.
He opened Qiao Zhen's blog and read through the contents bit by bit. He felt that Qiao Zhen should be his little fairy! Xu Li was incredulous when he realized his thoughts. Why did he have such a thought?
Moreover, his nickname is: "Qiao Zhen's Fairy Boy," such an explicit and shameful nickname.
Let's look back at his previous comments.
Qiao Zhen, the fairy godmother, 2022.10.15: Zhenzhen, the fairy godmother, is the best.
Qiao Zhen, the fairy godmother, 2022.10.13: Today, the fairy godmother is also very beautiful (:3 )
Qiao Zhen, the fairy godmother, 2022.10.08: It doesn't matter if you don't have acting skills, anyway, I'll spoil you and let you jump around (* /ω＼*).
There was also his online feud with anti-fans, a typical battle between brainless fans and anti-fans, and even a feud that lasted all night. Xu Li found this discovery absurd, and subconsciously he felt that he could never do such a thing.
