After saying that, she left.
Qi Jiu looked at Anna, then at the sunglasses on the table, and smiled. "You can try them on and see if they suit you."
"Really? Thank you!"
Seeing this, Anna clearly liked the sunglasses very much, and Qi Jiu slowly spoke up.
"If you like, you can buy a pair. G brand sunglasses have pretty good quality control and are very comfortable. I've always worn G brand ones."
As Anna excitedly put on her sunglasses, the girl reached out and rested her chin on her hand.
But to my surprise, the person on the other end hesitated. "I... I'll take a look first. G's stuff is pretty expensive, I..."
Short of money? Qi Jiu pursed her lips and immediately changed the subject.
"I heard that you and Liu Yan used to have a pretty good relationship, but Liu Yan hasn't been appearing in public lately, otherwise we could have seen her acting."
After saying that, he shook his head with a hint of regret.
Upon hearing the name 'Liu Yan', a complex emotion flashed in Anna's eyes behind her sunglasses.
"Liu Yan, I only met her a few times before, and we weren't actually that close." Anna took off her sunglasses, her eyes filled with reluctance, her fingers still stroking them.
Finally, as if he had made up his mind, he put the sunglasses back in their original place and stood up.
"Well, I have some things to take care of on set, so I'll talk to you later. You should rest."
Before Qi Jiu could give a reply, Anna left.
Fan Yi, who was standing nearby, had witnessed everything that had just happened and felt indignant on Anna's behalf.
"Why does Ye Qianran still talk so rudely? Does she really think everyone is as rich as her? Anna already has a hard life, what kind of talk is that..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Jiu raised an eyebrow.
Is Anna's family situation somewhat less than ideal?
Fan Yi nodded. "Anna comes from an ordinary family, or even worse. I heard that her family doesn't like her very much. It's already quite an achievement that she's managed to get to this position."
"No wonder I can only look at G's sunglasses and can't buy them even if I want to."
Liu Yun murmured something, and Qi Jiu, seemingly lost in thought, handed him her sunglasses. "Help me wipe them clean."
"Huh?" Liu Yun took the sunglasses, then realized what she meant. "Oh."
Is this a sign that they dislike Anna?
"Fan Yi, how well does Anna get along with others? Besides Ye Qianran, who else dislikes her?"
"No, it seems like only Ye Qianran doesn't like her in this production crew." Fan Yi thought and thought, and could only think of Ye Qianran.
Only Ye Qianran?
It seems she's the only one I can question.
Qi Jiu didn't have many scenes to film today. After finishing her scenes on set, she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she looked around the set like a tourist, as if she were visiting and admiring it.
During a break in filming, Qi Jiu looked at the overwhelmed Wang Jianguo and Tang Heng, as well as Anna who was choking up beside them, and then walked over with Liu Yun.
"Director Wang, what's wrong?"
Wang Jianguo frowned as he looked at Anna beside him and moved closer to Qi Jiu.
"Anna's costume is damaged for some reason, the sleeve is torn, but this costume was borrowed from the sponsor, so we have to pay for it if it's torn."
Oh, it's money again.
Liu Yun frowned as he looked at the person who was sobbing uncontrollably.
"How much compensation do you want for this dress?" Is it really necessary to cry so bitterly? Look, she's almost having a seizure from crying.
Anna's family is an ordinary family, but actors' salaries must be quite high. Although not as much as the lead actress, she must have earned at least five figures in the end.
"Sixty-eight thousand." Wang Jianguo shook his head.
Actually, this price is a small amount of money for them, but no one is willing to pay this amount for Anna for nothing.
"I didn't damage these clothes at all! Why should I pay for them!"
Anna's eyes were swollen from crying, and because of her presence, the filming of scenes that should have started was now delayed.
Wang Jianguo looked at her, his expression also unpleasant, and patiently spoke to her.
"But the surveillance footage didn't capture who damaged the clothes. The only person who could have touched them was you."
Anna cried, her eyes brimming with tears. She understood what those words meant, and tears streamed down her face as if they were free. She looked at Qi Jiu as if she had found a lifeline.
She quickly got up and walked towards Qi Jiu.
"Miss Qi, I really didn't arrange this dress. Please help me, okay? I know you're not short of money. You're a young lady from the Shen family, so 68,000 yuan is definitely not a problem for you. Please help me, okay?"
Just as Anna was about to grab Qi Jiu, Liu Yun flashed forward and shielded Qi Jiu behind him.
Although he still doesn't know what's so special about Qi Jiu to his master, he can't disobey his master's orders.
Moreover, Anna's way of thinking is wrong.
Upon hearing Anna's words, the expressions of those present changed subtly.
Something about that sounds a bit off.
Qi Jiu was also taken aback. "I don't need the 68,000 yuan, but you need to give me a reason why I should compensate you for this dress."
Anna touched the tear stains on her face. "Aren't you rich?"
Qi Jiu: "..."
Liu Yun: "..."
Others: "..."
What do you mean? You have to pay for this dress just because you have money? Why should you? You may have money, but money doesn't grow on trees.
"I may have money, but I have no reason to pay for your clothes."
She certainly doesn't lack the 68,000 yuan; in fact, she has countless 68,000 yuan in her possession. However, that's not a reason for her to help pay the compensation.
There are plenty of rich people in the world, does that mean everyone should help with this?
"Because you're rich! With money, you can do anything! You could even get the fourth female lead role in no time! It's not difficult for you!"
"Anna!"
Wang Jianguo was displeased upon hearing this.
This not only raises serious questions about Qi Jiu, but also about the character of the entire production team! Are they the kind of people who are only interested in money?
"Miss, please watch your words!" Liu Yun took a step forward, his resolute face radiating coldness.
"Isn't that right? I don't know how much effort I put into getting the third female lead role, but she just decided on the spur of the moment and got it! You..."
Don't you find it ridiculous to say that?
Ye Qianran appeared beside them at some point, looking at Anna as if she were some kind of clown.
Qi Jiu also found it laughable, but Liu Yun alone had a complicated expression on his face.
Before this, Anna was too good at hiding herself; even Fan Yi's few words were in her favor. But Miss Qi...
