Chapter 46 Coolness



Father Mu became angry as soon as he got home.

Father Mu took off his tie and threw it on the coffee table. He said angrily, "Look at her attitude! She didn't say a word the whole time, and she looked at us with that look! She was the one who made a fuss and wanted to leave, and now we are wrong, right?"

Mu's mother didn't say a word the whole time. She had recently developed a dislike for Mu's father's behavior of always getting angry and blaming others, and gradually began to not want to pay attention to him.

Father Mu became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. He paced back and forth in the living room. "Didn't Yin Huan marry Tong Yukai to be so successful? Yin Huan is just a poor girl. The Yin family is bankrupt and heavily in debt. Isn't she able to survive by being supported by Tong Yukai? The whole Yin family is sucking the blood of the Tong family! How dare she be so arrogant?"

Mother Mu couldn't stand it any longer and retorted, "Yin Huan earns a lot of money as an artist, and her acting skills are recognized by many people. Even without Tong Yukai, she is still very wealthy."

"She couldn't even get scripts in the beginning. She relied on sleeping with Tong Yukai for resources. And she ended up finding true love with him."

"What kind of indecent things do you say in front of the children?"

Mu Qingyao hurried upstairs, but stopped when she reached a place where they couldn't see her, secretly trying to listen to the old gossip, but she only heard her parents arguing.

"Mo Yinxun, you have a bad temper lately. Are you starting to refute me?" Father Mu especially hates the feeling of being out of control when people around him are around him.

"You are going too far."

"I went too far? Haha——" Father Mu walked over with a sneer, grabbed Mother Mu's hair and pulled it back and forth. Mother Mu cried out in pain, her body shaking as Father Mu pulled her, and she cried in pain.

Father Mu: "I married you, a poor woman, and gave you good food and clothes, and a good life. Now you despise me, don't you? I tell you, a woman like you is not worthy of being with me. You should marry a poor boy and live a hard life to know how good I am."

After saying this, Father Mu let go of Mother Mu and continued to slander her: "Look at what you can do. You can do nothing. You are obviously poor, but you have started to do things without any experience. You are nothing without me."

Mu's mother retorted with tears in her eyes: "I was also a student of a prestigious school! I was also a school beauty!"

Mu's mother was indeed very beautiful when she was young, and it was because of this that Mu's father pursued her madly. Although he was a rich man, he treated her very well and even married her against her parents' wishes.

She once felt that she was very happy and had a good home.

But only she herself knows what life will be like after marriage.

The initial image of Father Mu is that of a nobleman, who pursues her gently and makes promises of eternal love to her.

As a result, a quarrel broke out suddenly, and the whole process kept instilling in her the idea that it was her fault, that she had caused their relationship to be in crisis, and that he was extremely disappointed in her.

Mu's mother really felt that she was wrong and apologized to make amends.

From then on, Father Mu's mood was sometimes good and sometimes bad. Many times she felt discouraged, but Father Mu was so good that he made her soften her heart.

This is undoubtedly a torture.

Father Mu laughed when he heard Mother Mu's rebuttal: "Look at you now, a man is in his prime at 41, and you, when you go out, people call you auntie, right? The meanings of uncle and auntie are not quite the same."

Mu's mother was hurt again.

Father Mu glanced at Mother Mu coldly, and then said, "I know what you are thinking. You want to persuade Xu Xinduo to come back, right? Then go ahead. After all, she is our child. We should take care of her and give her some money as an apology. By the way, you can go directly to the Tong family and chat with Yin Huan. Although she is a bitch, she is also the wife of the Tong family."

After saying this, Father Mu also went upstairs.

Mu Qingyao, who had been eavesdropping, quickly and quietly returned to her room.

Mother Mu watched Father Mu leave and became more and more disappointed.

It turned out that Father Mu wanted to call Xu Xinduo back not only because of family affection, but also because he wanted to establish a relationship with the Tong family.

On the one hand, they look down on and slander others, and on the other hand, they want to make friends with them.

nausea.

On Sunday, Xu Xinduo had to go to the company for an interview.

Xu Xinduo asked Tong Yan, and Tong Yan said that Director Huang had to work overtime to accompany him to take the exam, which was also today, so he could not accompany Xu Xinduo.

Tong Yan was serious about transferring to the rocket class.

He contacted Mr. Huang, the director of the international class, and asked for a copy of the last exam paper of the regular class, wanting to take a test to see his own level.

Director Huang has always been very nice to them. He offered to accompany Tong Yan to take the exam on Sunday and serve as an invigilator.

Afterwards, we will contact the teachers of the regular classes to help correct and grade the papers, and the results will be available on Monday.

Tong Yan went to school early in the morning.

Xu Xinduo contacted Shao Qinghe, then took a car to the company and met Shao Qinghe in the lobby on the first floor.

When I arrived, I saw Mu Qingyi was there too.

Shao Qinghe and Mu Qingyi were both wearing casual clothes. Shao Qinghe wore a shirt with a denim jacket, solid-color pants and white sneakers. He looked very simple, which was in line with his temperament.

Mu Qingyi was wearing a black round-neck sweatshirt with a shirt underneath, with only the collar exposed. The lower body is loose jeans and a pair of black shoes. This matching style is a bit like Tong Yan, but Tong Yan wears black clothes, black pants and black shoes. If it weren’t for the white soles of his shoes, Hei Tian wouldn’t be able to find him even if he closed his eyes.

Xu Xinduo walked over and said, "Let's go for the interview."

Shao Qinghe nodded, reached out and pulled Mu Qingyi, and then the three of them walked into the elevator together.

The brother and sister stood very close to each other in the elevator, but no one took the initiative to say hello. Obviously, their relationship had eased before they left home, but now it became awkward again.

Mu Qing also felt awkward, and Xu Xinduo was unwilling to keep in touch.

After entering the office, Xu Xinduo met her agent for the first time.

When the agent came out, he was holding a thermos cup and talking to other people in the company with a smile. When he walked out, he glanced at the three people and finally fixed his eyes on Xu Xinduo.

When Shao Qinghe introduced himself, he only gave the agent a photo from the yearbook and nothing else.

I’ve never seen a photo of a model being recommended!

There is a joke circulating on the Internet: If you only show your face in a video, you must be fat.

Plus, young people nowadays photoshop their photos to make them as pretty as possible. They often receive a piece of information that looks very beautiful, but after the person arrives, they can't recognize that it is the same person.

It's too much Photoshop. You shouldn't be a model. You should be doing post-production.

So when seeing Xu Xinduo's personal photo, the agent felt indifferent. She is indeed pretty, but it is probably photoshopped. If she looked like this in real life, she would have been scouted by a scout long ago. Does she need to be introduced?

I guess there’s another monster that needs to be photoshopped, increasing the workload of their post-production staff.

So the agent never took Xu Xinduo seriously.

But after seeing Xu Xinduo in person, the agent's alarm bells rang in his head: It's unforgivable that this person is not popular!

This face, this figure, this temperament, she was born to be a model!

The agent came over immediately and shook hands with Xu Xinduo: "This must be Duoduo, right? She's much prettier in person than in the photo."

Before, her agent called her Xiao Xu on WeChat.

Xu Xinduo shook hands with her agent politely, then let go.

The agent didn't care and introduced himself with a smile: "Just call me Brother Zhang from now on."

After Brother Zhang finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Mu Qingyi. He also thought that his appearance was very good, so he asked, "Is this one the same as well?"

Shao Qinghe immediately denied it: "No, he is a relative of Sister Duoduo."

"Oh, that's what I was talking about. You two look so alike, are you siblings?"

Shao Qinghe replied casually: "Well, I guess so."

Four people went to the office together, and after entering, there were people holding a meeting inside.

They could only sit and wait for their meeting to be over.

This building is entirely owned by Star Entertainment, but the model department is only located in half of one floor, so it can be considered a small affiliated department.

These rooms contain office areas and model training classrooms, all together, making the conference room very compact, with only one room.

While waiting, Mu Qingyi took the contract and looked through it repeatedly, as if he was helping Xu Xinduo check it.

Xu Xinduo didn't say anything either, just sat there quietly waiting.

After waiting for a while, the people in the meeting left. Mu Qingyi also put the contract next to Xu Xinduo and said, "No problem."

"Oh." Xu Xinduo responded.

Brother Zhang still introduced Xu Xinduo, first introducing their department, then talking about some partners, and also which investors there were, the work they took on, and so on.

After that, I discussed with Xu Xinduo about the training and the available filming time. All these needed to be negotiated. Then, a form was customized on the spot, which also required Xu Xinduo's signature.

Xu Xinduo brought her ID card and Brother Zhang helped her to make a copy.

After copying it, he took a look at the address on the ID card, as well as words like "tun" and "cun". He couldn't help but look at Xu Xinduo a little more.

After the contract was signed, Brother Zhang took Xu Xinduo to visit their model department, where there were new people in training, and they greeted each other.

Xu Xinduo will start training this afternoon.

Mu Qingyi signed the contract and left, seemingly not wanting to stay any longer.

When Xu Xinduo was having her first working meal at the company, Shao Qinghe greeted his family and came over to eat with Xu Xinduo.

He asked gently, "How does it feel?"

Xu Xinduo had almost finished eating, but Shao Qinghe came and did not put down his chopsticks out of politeness: "It's okay, as long as I can make money."

"You're not picky."

"What can I choose..."

Shao Qinghe ate for a while and suddenly said, "Can you be a little nicer to your brother?"

Xu Xinduo looked at Shao Qinghe without answering, his attitude was vague.

Shao Qinghe immediately explained: "Well, I know it's not good for me to advise you like this, I just think he is a little pitiful."

Xu Xinduo put down her chopsticks and began to smile bitterly. Mu Qing was also pitiful, so who would pity her?

Shao Qinghe continued, "I'm only telling you what I know. Before you came back, Mu Qingyi had a quarrel with his family before becoming an exchange student. Now that I think about it, he was probably trying to help you. Moreover, he is innocent in this matter. He was not the one who exchanged the children. He just escaped. He didn't agree with the decision made by his family, but he had no choice. He is still the child of the family and can't go against his parents too much. These days, he has also tried very hard to help you get some things, but... you still left the Mu family."

Xu Xinduo responded vaguely.

Shao Qinghe: "He still cares about you very much. He will go to watch your games and come to look at the contract when you sign..."

Xu Xinduo suddenly said: "Maybe I am born cold and indifferent."

Shao Qinghe immediately shut his mouth.

"I don't want to have anything to do with that family anymore, so I don't even want to acknowledge him." Xu Xinduo said with a wry smile, "He really didn't do anything wrong, and I have no right to blame him for not helping me. He was probably considering the marriage for his family. But I still feel uncomfortable."

Shao Qinghe kept looking at her and saw that her eyes suddenly turned red.

She said, "When I was starving and cold, with frostbite all over my body, he lived in the Mu family's villa, learned piano, and dressed warmly. When I suffered a lot and was worried about tuition fees, he was excellent in both character and study, and was spoiled by his parents and protected by students in school. Every time I make a comparison, I feel uncomfortable. I am not a saint, and my heart aches when I see him. When I see his sympathetic eyes, I feel like I am being materialized. In his eyes, I am a pitiful dog!"

"He didn't think that way!" Shao Qinghe hurried to defend himself.

"Maybe it's because I have low self-esteem, which is terrible and sensitive."

"No, you're excellent."

Xu Xinduo suddenly laughed, then turned to look at Shao Qinghe: "People who advise others to forgive should be struck by lightning. You don't know what I've been through. You only see that your friend is sad."

Shao Qinghe immediately realized that he had overstepped his bounds and apologized: "Sorry, I was too nosy."

"I understand your good intentions, and I can tell you that I don't hate him, nor do I dislike him. But I've tried, and I can't accept him in a short period of time. It's also possible that he was implicated because of the disappointment that family brought to me. Maybe one day, I will find that having a brother is great, but now... not yet."

In Shao Qinghe's opinion, Mu Qingyi felt really uncomfortable being caught in the middle.

But this is Mu Qingyi's family, this is what happened in his family, he has to deal with it, there is nothing he can do about it.

After Xu Xinduo returned to the Mu family, the first person she approached was Mu Qingyi. However, in the end, Xu Xinduo still left that home.

This brother...how should I describe him?

I really tried to be nice to her, but she just couldn't accept it easily.

Shao Qinghe nodded, picked up the water cup and took a sip, then said: "This way you can avoid having people at home ask Mu Qingyi to persuade you to go home? This will make Mu Qingyi very embarrassed."

Xu Xinduo was suddenly stunned.

Shao Qinghe turned his head and smiled at Xu Xinduo. His eyes were curved when he smiled, and his expression was unpredictable: "Sister Duoduo is still very gentle and cute."

"You..." Xu Xinduo only uttered one sound.

"how?"

"People like you are really annoying." Xu Xinduo said frankly.

Shao Qinghe continued to smile. When he saw Shao Yu coming over to greet him, accompanied by his pregnant wife, he immediately stood up and walked over and said, "Okay, let's stop talking. Just do what you want."

Xu Xinduo watched Shao Qinghe leave, then suddenly called him and said, "Shao Qinghe, I'll bring you the cookies tomorrow."

"Well, I want a Christmas tree. Christmas is coming soon."

"good."
