Chapter 57
The CEO's office at Qiu Corporation.
Secretary Xiao Wang tried her best to minimize her presence, wishing she could shrink under the table.
The ground was a mess, and the worst off was Qiu Xing's cell phone.
It was smashed to pieces.
Qiu Xing was still in the motion of smashing the table, his fist pressed firmly against the thick solid wood table, and there were still traces of blood on the table and on his hands.
His suit jacket was lying on the ground, and his tie was loose and askew.
He looked disheveled yet fierce.
His eyes were a terrifying crimson, more frightening than a demon's.
Recently, Qiu Xing finally had the time to check on Rong Rong's situation and even went to great lengths to use his connections in Li Gu's film crew to get Rong Rong's new phone number.
He made a phone call full of joy, only to hear Rong Rong's voice entwined with another man.
He didn't know who the man was, but now he really wanted to kill him.
After a long time, Qiu Xing finally calmed down. He straightened his clothes with a cold face, while Xiao Wang shakily cleaned up the mess on the ground.
No rush. Qiu Xing fastened his tie and slowly smoothed out the last wrinkle on his cuff. Rong Rong would be joining the crew soon, and he would be able to bring her over sooner or later.
At that time, he will absolutely not give anyone another chance to escape...
The next day, after breakfast, Rong Rong rode in Lin Zeyang's car to the film studio.
The costume fitting photos and the opening ceremony were all conducted in secrecy.
Especially regarding news about Rong Rong, Li Gu repeatedly ordered that no one be allowed to leak it.
They even placed more importance on it than on the female and male leads in the play.
If it were any other newcomer riding on the male and female leads' heads like this, they would definitely not agree. But since it's Rong Rong, the male and female leads are quite happy to do so.
What a joke! If they had released Rong Rong's news earlier, what attention would they have had? Everyone would have been chasing after the beautiful woman!
Moreover, even they like the great beauty, so why wouldn't they be happy to make way for her and help her in her sedan chair?
The beauty is destined for great success, so it's better to build a good relationship now.
There were quite a few people who shared the same thoughts as the male and female leads, so Rong Rong was practically the darling of the crew.
A large group of people always surrounded her, asking about her well-being and chatting with her to keep her entertained, which made Rong Rong find filming even more interesting.
Among the many figures circling around Rong Rong, one person stood out from the crowd, appearing extremely special – that was Yu Qiu.
Yu Qiu successfully secured the third female lead role. Considering her conflict with Rong Rong, she didn't approach Rong Rong.
Her aloofness was noticed by everyone, and some speculated that she had a grudge against Rong Rong. In order to show their loyalty to Rong Rong, many people spontaneously isolated Yu Qiu.
Rong Rong saw everything, but she said and did nothing. She just felt that she had successfully persecuted Yu Qiu without having to lift a finger, which was a good thing for her mission.
However, it is clear that the system, or rather the Heavenly Dao, believes that this level is not enough.
Her third task was not marked as complete, so it seems she needs to push things a little harder.
Seeing Rong Rong's lively scene once again, no matter how strong Yu Qiu was or how much she pretended to be nonchalant, she still felt a sense of loss.
According to the original plot, if Rong Rong hadn't come, Yu Qiu would have been the most popular person in the cast.
After all, she was a newcomer who progressed quickly, was kind, and humble, making it easy for her to be liked by everyone. But Rong Rong changed all that.
Yu Qiu stared at them listlessly for a while, then took out her phone and snapped a picture of Rong Rong and the others from a distance.
Considering the production team's confidentiality measures, she deliberately blurred the faces of Rong Rong and the others before posting it on her WeChat Moments with a caption.
Are there some misunderstandings that can never be resolved in a lifetime?
It was followed by a crying emoji.
Feeling isolated, Yu Qiu was so bored that she posted self-deprecating messages on her WeChat Moments.
Shortly after the message was sent, the phone rang; it was Yan Jin.
Yu Qiu hesitated for a few seconds before answering the phone.
"Rong Rong is making things difficult for you again?" The cold voice was laced with anger.
Yu Qiu immediately frowned. "No! No! Don't make wild guesses!"
"You don't need to explain for her. I know about your crew's situation." Yan Jin's voice was even colder.
"Really, no, it's my problem," Yu Qiu said helplessly.
"You're just too kind. Don't worry, I won't let her bother you again!"
Yan Jin spoke coldly, as if he had made up his mind, and Yu Qiu had a bad feeling.
"It really has nothing to do with her, it's my fault..."
"Beep beep beep beep..."
Before Yu Qiu could finish speaking, the microphone went dead.
"???" Yu Qiu was full of questions, realizing for the first time that Yan Jin seemed impossible to communicate with.
The filter of the once awesome senior, outstanding alumnus, aloof campus heartthrob, and so on, shattered instantly.
At this moment, the bewildered Yu Qiu had no idea how much her conversation with Yan Jin resembled that of a domineering CEO and a seemingly innocent but actually naive woman in a novel.
After that, Yu Qiu was restless all day long.
She kept glancing at Rong Rong, who also noticed Yu Qiu's subtle actions.
To show her attitude towards Yu Qiu, Rong Rong deliberately rolled her eyes at people.
However, everyone present was shrewd, and they could tell at a glance that Rong Rong's disdainful glances held no malice.
Compared to those who have been working in the entertainment industry for many years, Rong Rong is just a little girl fresh out of university. Even when she's angry, she acts like a proud little cat, which is both funny and cute.
A pure and beautiful woman with a slightly temperamental nature, exceptionally lively.
If at the beginning everyone approached Rong Rong with their own ulterior motives and fawned over her, now everyone genuinely likes Rong Rong from the bottom of their hearts.
After a day of mental preparation, Yu Qiu finally mustered the courage to walk up to Rong Rong.
At that moment, Rong Rong was enjoying her snacks. When she saw someone coming, she quickly put the snacks away and made sure to seal them tightly so that she could continue eating them later.
Rong Rong sat upright, tilting her head slightly, deliberately looking to the side, pretending to ignore Yu Qiu. However, the people sitting around her looked at Yu Qiu strangely.
Yu Qiu stopped in front of Rong Rong, took a deep breath, and said, "Yan Jin is going to have someone deal with you. You need to be careful."
"Huh?" Rong Rong turned around, her eyes wide open. "I'm on set every day, why would I be afraid of him?"
"He has people in the crew, so you'd better be careful," Yu Qiu advised. She had only posted on her WeChat Moments a short time ago, and Yan Jin already knew about their situation on set. What else could it be but someone he had connections with?
"Do you think that's possible?" Rong Rong scoffed.
A series of laughs erupted from the surrounding area.
"How could anyone in the crew hurt Rong Rong? Didn't you see that everyone likes Rong Rong?"
"Sigh, we wish Rongrong would smile at us more, so how could we bear to see her get hurt?"
In particular, Sang Zi, the female lead of "Unreachable", is a top-tier actress in the industry with a queen-like presence.
She domineeringly occupied the position closest to Rong Rong, adopting a protective stance to encircle Rong Rong into her own territory.
At this moment, she looked at Yu Qiu with amusement and scrutiny, "If you want to please Rong Rong, put some effort into it. What kind of lame excuse is this?"
Only someone of her status can speak freely; others always try to leave themselves an out.
Sang Zi's words made Yu Qiu blush instantly, while Rong Rong proudly raised her head high.
