Neither Qi Shuo nor Tang Yue expected that Xia He would directly drive Tang Yue away because of these trivial matters.
Tang Yue immediately knelt down in front of Xia He's bed and cried bitterly. Qi Shuo originally thought that Tang Yue was indeed negligent in her duty, but seeing her crying and asking for forgiveness was so heartbreaking, Xia He was completely indifferent.
He once again saw Xia He's coldness.
"She has already knelt down to apologize to you, do you still have to make things difficult for her?" Qi Shuo gritted his teeth as if he was enduring something.
"If you feel sorry for her, you can bring her to be your assistant." Xia He refused to give in and glared fiercely at the man who seemed to be incompatible with her.
She didn't know why, even though he was right here, she felt like there was an insurmountable gap between them.
She could no longer see any love in his eyes for her.
Something was moving away from her little by little, and she couldn't catch it.
Qi Shuo seemed to have noticed that Xia He's mood today was different from usual. He pushed Tang Yue aside and said with all his patience:
"He He, can you please stop being unreasonable? Tang Yue is your cousin. I only care about her for your sake. How could you push her to me?"
"Qi Shuo, it's been a day since I was hospitalized yesterday, and you just came here late with my cousin who is my personal assistant. Have you ever asked me about my condition? Don't deceive yourself by saying you are doing this for my own good. You don't care about me at all."
"I..." Qi Shuo's back stiffened.
"Wuwuwu... Cousin Xia He, please don't leave me. I will change..." Tang Yue was still kneeling in front of Xia He's bed, crying stubbornly and aggrievedly.
Qi Shuo couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he forcefully pulled her up and then looked at Xia He viciously.
"Why are you still kneeling? Can't you see she has a heart of stone?"
Heart of stone? Xia He gave a bitter laugh. What a perfect phrase, a heart of stone.
Five years ago, the two started from the same starting point, working hard to pursue their dreams of becoming filmmakers.
During the most difficult times, the two shared the only whole-grain pancake. The pancake was rough and hard, but they could taste a hint of sweetness in each other's firm eyes.
Many times she felt sorry for the man going hungry, and would give him half of the food she earned.
When she was hungry, she drank well water to survive.
It was also from that time that her stomach and intestines began to deteriorate.
Although life was hard at that time, when the two of them imagined the future together, the words of encouragement they exchanged were like a light that warmed each other and allowed them to persevere.
But now, life has finally gotten better and they are finally going to get married, but this man starts describing her as heartless.
She didn't know what her perseverance over the years meant to him.
Qi Shuo finally left with Tang Yue, who seemed to have suffered a lot of injustice. They did not show up until Xia He was discharged from the hospital two days later.
Xia He took Long Lizhen back to the set immediately and began to make up for the scenes that had been delayed in the past few days.
Long Lizhen replaced Tang Yue's assistant and began to take care of Xia He meticulously. Not only did she complete the tasks assigned by Xia He very well, she also took care of many other troubles for Xia He.
Since changing her assistant, Xia He's work has become easier and her mood has improved.
Although she hadn't seen Tang Yue and Qi Shuo for a week, Xia He didn't think about them at all.
She only heard from the assistant director who was in the same crew as Qi Shuo that there were no roles for Qi Shuo recently, so he went to the countryside to perform.
After finishing a day's filming, Xia He was planning to take Long Lijun out to a restaurant to comfort her when she ran into Qin Lingxiao outside the set.
"Qin..." She waved her hand and was hesitating about how to address him when she saw a man holding a folder running behind Qin Lingxiao.
"Deputy Director Qin, here are some film materials that need your signature and approval..."
Xia He's raised hand froze in mid-air. She didn't expect that this man was the newly transferred deputy factory director.
It is said that the deputy director was transferred from the army specifically to be in charge of film production and combating corruption.
