Xu Li leaned in and brought his face close to Qiao Zhen's. "If you like staying in the entertainment industry, I can set up a studio for you, as long as you're happy."
So you absolutely must not sign a contract with Fan Zhou, otherwise no one knows what he might do.
Because Xu Li's face was hidden in the shadows of a corner, Qiao Zhen couldn't see his expression clearly, but she suddenly sensed that something was off about his mood. "Who wants to stay in the entertainment industry? I was just being polite. Once the hype surrounding 'The Legend of Concubine Mao' dies down, I'll retire." She pinched Xu Li's cheek. "Alright, give me a smile, okay?"
Xu Li's eyes lit up. He took Qiao Zhen's hand and held it. "Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course." Qiao Zhen squeezed Xu Li's knuckles. "I'm not signed with a company now, and retiring from the industry is just a matter of posting an article. Besides, there are too many unpleasant things in the entertainment industry. I'm always being exposed to this and that. I don't have any acting skills and I can't endure hardship, so it's better for me to stay put."
Xu Li leaned over and kissed Qiao Zhen's cheek. "Okay."
"Then I'm going up." Qiao Zhen leaned over and kissed Xu Li's cheek, then she sneaked back around.
The show ended at 10 p.m., and Xu Li and Qiao Zhen flew back to Beijing, while Qiao Zhen's blog exploded again.
Because Xu Li posted on Weibo: My girlfriend is retiring from the entertainment industry! She's mine alone, don't even think about her, thank you. @乔真v
After seeing Xu Li's post, Qiao Zhen reposted it with the following text: Yes, because after recording the program today, I also discussed this matter with Mr. Xu. As an actor, I'm not dedicated. Now that I'm not short of money, I won't continue to lower the overall standard of the entertainment industry. I will still participate in the promotion of "The Legend of Concubine Mao"; I don't want to be someone who starts something but doesn't finish it. (On a new line) Goodnight everyone.
A month later, there was no need for Qiao Zhen to participate in the promotion of "The Legend of Concubine Mao", after all, there were two top artists, Fan Zhou and Yu Kewei.
Qiao Zhen now spends her free time taking care of Xiao Juhua or accompanying Xu Li to cooking classes.
Xu Li has also returned to his post, and he is gradually becoming busier, with less and less time to attend his extracurricular classes. His previous failed mission left his superiors in the military somewhat at a loss, but Xu Li was energized, saying that he would get up from where he fell.
Moreover, his judgment was sharp and accurate, so his superiors assigned him the task of dealing with that black boss.
Xu Li returned home late at night that day. Looking at the little chrysanthemum that Qiao Zhen was holding in her arms, he could no longer suppress his wicked thoughts. While Qiao Zhen was sleeping, he threw the little chrysanthemum off the second-floor balcony.
Afterwards, he went to the bathroom in the guest room to take a shower, and then sneaked into Qiao Zhen's arms.
The next day, Xu Li got up early and left the villa. When Qiao Zhen woke up, she didn't see Xiao Juhua, so she searched everywhere, disheveled and dirty. She searched the entire villa but still couldn't find her. So she went to the yard outside and searched again, and found Xiao Juhua lying dying in the grass.
Qiao Zhen quickly carried the little chrysanthemum back to its warm bed, then found the baby bottle and formula to make some milk for it. "How did it end up outside?"
"Meow…"
Qiao Zhen spent ten minutes brushing her teeth, washing her face, and changing her clothes, then carried Xiao Juhua to the garage to get the car.
However, on the way to the pet hospital, the police checked driver's licenses, and Qiao Zhen, being an unregistered person, obviously didn't have one, so she was given a ticket. The key point is that the car owner was Xu Li.
Since it wasn't her money that was being deducted, she accepted the fine without feeling guilty and then sped off to the vet.
Fortunately, Qiao Zhen discovered it in time, and Xiao Juhua was lucky to survive. So the doctor prescribed some medicine and gave many instructions. Qiao Zhen managed to save Xiao Juhua's life.
Qiao Zhen thought that Xiao Juhua had jumped off the balcony while playing, so she would pay special attention to the bedroom door and the balcony door when Xiao Juhua was alone at home.
When Xu Li returned home in the middle of the night and saw that Xiao Juhua was still in Qiao Zhen's arms, he could no longer hide his jealousy. With a ferocious expression, he mixed all sorts of random medicines from the first-aid kit into Xiao Juhua's cat food before crawling into bed and falling asleep peacefully with Qiao Zhen in his arms.
The next morning, Xu Li did not leave early. While Qiao Zhen was washing up, he fed the cat food with fillings to Xiao Juhua. He breathed a sigh of relief after watching Xiao Juhua eat it, and then took the rest of the cat food to destroy the evidence.
Qiao Zhen noticed that Xiao Juhua was acting strangely again today. She was quite lively last night, so why was she listless again this morning?
So Qiao Zhen took Xiao Juhua to the vet for a checkup, but in the end, they still couldn't save her.
Qiao Zhen walked along the roadside with the little chrysanthemum in her arms, and finally sat down on a park bench with the little chrysanthemum in her arms.
Qiao Zhen: [What happened to Little Chrysanthemum while I was sleeping?]
Xiao Ling: [Xu Li threw it downstairs, and he also put medicine in the cat food while you were sleeping. This morning, when you weren't around, he fed the cat food to Xiao Juhua, and he even took the remaining poisoned cat food with him.]
Chu Chu huddled in the corner, trembling with fear.
Qiao Zhen: [Does Xu Li have a fetish for abusing cats? He used to get along very well with Xiao Juhua. Can a test find out why?]
Xiao Ling: [Detecting... Detection complete. The target's jealousy level is 8/10. This is normal for this task, please do not panic.]
Qiao Zhen: [! They've done something as cruel as abusing cats, and this is considered normal?]
Xiao Ling: [(，，??.??，，) We're in the neurology department, and we even have pica, people who like to eat human flesh. Don't be surprised, I really can't believe you've lived for ten thousand years.]
