But Bai Qingze wasn't afraid of Xiao Yuan, and nodded in agreement as he listened to his words.
"Yes, being obsessed with love is indeed a problem, so Mr. Xiao, you should take some time to see a doctor."
Look how spoiled Qingzhi has become!
Even if Qingzhi said lemons were sweet, Xiao Yuan would probably agree without batting an eye.
Xiao Yuan naturally understood what the other person meant, and answered without even looking up:
"Some people aren't love-struck; they're just blinded by love. Besides, some people are worth it."
Bai Qingze rolled his eyes but didn't refute.
Filming went very smoothly, and Bai Qingzhi finished filming in just over a month.
On the day of the celebration banquet, Bai Qingzhi hosted a dinner for the crew.
Everyone was very accommodating and came over one after another.
Amidst the laughter and merriment, someone Bai Qingzhi had almost forgotten arrived.
Han Lan.
However, Han Lan was very low-key today, dressed in sportswear, and her face no longer showed the same hostility she used to have towards Bai Qingzhi.
“Han Lan used to be part of the film crew, so I invited him without permission. I’m sure Bai Zhi won’t mind, right?” A heavily made-up woman suddenly spoke up.
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Lan's expression turned somewhat awkward.
"I thought it was you who invited me..." Han Lan said softly to Bai Qingzhi.
"Please take a seat, or all the food will be gone," Bai Qingzhi replied with a smile.
Since the person is already here, she can't just kick them out, can she?
The person who invited her was named Xiao Rui, who also had a significant role in the production; she was a spy who followed the female lead.
Her reaction at this moment made Bai Qingzhi think that the director had a really good eye for casting.
Xiao Rui is very outgoing and gets along well with everyone. Bai Qingzhi didn't care that Xiao Rui had invited other people without permission.
But Xiao Rui clearly had other motives today, constantly grabbing Bai Qingzhi and asking her all sorts of questions, most of which were related to her identity.
When Bai Qingzhi was questioned sharply the next time, she suddenly put down her cup and innocently turned her head away.
"Do you think that now that filming is mostly finished, I can't replace the actor?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
"I wouldn't mind reshooting," Bai Qingze said with a smile, having also seen through the other party's mischievous intentions.
Xiao Rui's expression immediately turned ugly and she couldn't bear to look at it.
She did indeed have this in mind. Even if Bai Zhi had a powerful background, with all the funds already invested, no production team could change her role.
But now, hearing Bai Zhi say this, she was unsure of what to do.
Yang Wei took a bite of dessert and elegantly wiped the corner of her mouth.
"Someone is making trouble for Bai Zhi, which is to make things difficult for me, Yang Wei. Although I am not as famous as before, I still have a certain status. It shouldn't be too difficult for me to blacklist a minor character in the entertainment industry."
She had a smile on her face as she said this, but it sounded particularly cold to everyone else.
Bai Qingzhi smiled sweetly at everyone's protectiveness towards her, and then said:
"I'm afraid Sister Xiaorui was just curious today, and probably didn't mean anything by it, right?"
After saying that, he looked at Xiaorui.
Xiao Rui looked somewhat frightened and embarrassed. Her lips twitched stiffly, and she nodded stiffly in agreement.
They've already offered a way out; if you don't take it, you're just pushing your luck.
The banquet continued as if nothing had happened.
Just then, the waiter came over to serve the dishes, and Bai Qingzhi glanced over unintentionally and was surprised to find that it was Xiao Die.
Xiaodie was also surprised to see Bai Qingzhi there, but she lowered her head and wanted to finish quickly and leave.
After all, the two look very similar, and it would be bad for Qingzhi if others saw them.
At this dinner table, she saw several familiar faces from television. Given that Qingzhi was currently filming, Xiaodie guessed that she was having a gathering with the crew.
Qingzhi is now a public figure, and she cannot embarrass her.
As soon as the dishes were served, Xiaodie turned around quickly to leave, but unexpectedly Bai Qingzhi called her back first.
It was only then that everyone realized how much Bai Zhi resembled the waiter!
“Bai Zhi, who is this…” Xiao Rui was the first to ask.
"This is my sister, she works part-time here," Bai Qingzhi said frankly, without feeling ashamed at all.
Everyone looked puzzled.
Even now, it seems Bai Zhi has a powerful background, but her sister is actually working as a waitress?
Seemingly sensing that Xiaodie was a little uncomfortable, Bai Qingzhi took her hand and asked her how her grandmother was.
As they chatted for a while, Xiaodie gradually relaxed.
“I’ll go back to the old house to see her when I have time. Oh, by the way, Mom brought you a gift when she came back from Poland last time. Go home and get it when you have time. Second brother also prepared something for you, but it seems like he left it at home.” Bai Qingzhi said with a smile.
Once filming was finished, she no longer needed to hide her identity.
At first, it was simply to avoid trouble.
Bai Qingze nodded and continued:
"Yes, except for me, my older brother and the others are all prepared."
Xiaodie was very moved, her eyes reddened, and afraid of losing her composure, she bit her lip and retreated.
Everyone in the room heard Bai Qingzhi's words clearly, and they hadn't reacted even after Xiaodie had left.
Xiao Rui couldn't control the fear in her heart and clenched her teeth tightly.
From the very beginning, she disliked Bai Zhi's aloofness. Even though Bai Zhi was always smiling, she could still sense a sense of superiority in Bai Zhi's smile.
That's an innate confidence, cultivated by a good family background.
So she saw through Han Lan's jealousy and took advantage of Han Lan's ambiguous words to spread rumors.
It can be said that most of Bai Qingzhi's initial slander was caused by her.
Xiao Rui paid a heavy price to enter the entertainment industry, even going through several relationships with different men before finally getting this role with more screen time.
Therefore, she was equally envious of any woman who could have access to good resources without having to pay anything.
She thought Bai Qingzhi was a mistress of some big shot, just like her, but now she suddenly says that she is a young lady of the Bai family. These are completely different concepts!
It turns out that what she said all along was true; her abilities go far beyond simply changing roles!
Fear began to spread from the bottom of her heart. Xiao Rui's mind raced, and finally, she felt that she should do something.
Immediately afterwards, Bai Qingzhi felt Xiao Rui's unprecedented enthusiasm.
Guessing what the other person was thinking, Bai Qingzhi shook her head helplessly.
She didn't have the time to argue with her, and besides, it wasn't worth letting someone like that affect her mood.
As the party was about to end, Xiao Yuan's car was parked in front of the restaurant, and could be seen through the window.
People in the entertainment industry have seen countless luxury cars, so they can naturally recognize that this car is very valuable at a glance.
The group of people excitedly began their discussion.
When Bai Qingzhi got into the car at the end of the meeting, everyone's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Then came envy.
Endless envy.
