Chapter 144 Phone Call



"Dad, don't talk so much for now, let's go home first."

Chu Huaian’s words made Chu Rong sigh deeply.

Chu Huaian was driving when Chu Rong hurriedly stopped him.

"Huaian, I want to go see Zhao Zhao. After all, she..."

Before Chu Rong finished speaking, he saw that Chu Huaian looked a little embarrassed, and immediately realized that he seemed to have said something wrong.

"It's okay Huai'an, let's go home first."

"Dad, it's not that I don't want to send you to see Zhao Zhao, but now is not the right time. Many eyes are staring at us. Even if we are fine, Zhao Zhao's job is always special. We should think more about Zhao Zhao."

After hearing this, Chu Rong nodded, realized that his idea was inappropriate, and then stopped talking.

Despite everything that happened yesterday, Chu Zhaozhao still had to complete the new work.

Sister Wei had already instructed her assistant to pick up Chu Zhaozhao early and observe Chu Zhaozhao's condition.

Yesterday, the trending search about Chu Zhaozhao causing trouble in the company stayed on the hot search list for five hours before being taken down. Sister Wei checked and found that the person who bought this trending search was Cheng Feifei.

Sister Wei didn’t know whether she should tell Chu Zhaozhao, but as long as the hot search subsided, it would not have much impact on Zhaozhao, so perhaps not telling her was a better choice.

"Sister Zhaozhao, you have an endorsement today, and then you will try on the costumes for Director Zheng's movie. That's your schedule for today." The assistant said cautiously.

Chu Zhaozhao nodded and got into the car, her eyes still red and swollen.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, Sister Wei asked me to observe you, but I don't think you need to observe me now to know that you are in a very bad mood."

"Yeah."

Chu Zhaozhao lowered her head, played with her fingers, and answered nonchalantly.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, although I don't know what happened, I think there must be a way to deal with it. Besides, you are Chu Zhao Zhao, how could you back down just because something happened? This is definitely not you."

The assistant tried to cheer up Chu Zhaozhao, but Chu Zhaozhao really couldn't muster any interest. It seemed as if the air around him felt much more depressing.

"Oh, Sister Zhao Zhao, I forgot to tell you that the endorsement is for jewelry. I've already sent the verbal broadcast to your phone. You can check it out now. There's a teleprompter on site."

When talking about work, Chu Zhaozhao had to get started even if she was not interested.

Chu Zhaozhao looked at the oral instructions sent by the assistant on the phone and memorized them silently.

Various news and software push notifications kept popping up on the phone, and Chu Zhaozhao was attracted by the titles of some articles.

"When did yesterday's hot searches drop?" Chu Zhaozhao asked.

The assistant gave Chu Zhaozhao an approximate time. Chu Zhaozhao found the hot search list for that time and looked at the netizens' reactions.

"Just a passerby, I want to know what happened to this female celebrity who no longer cares about her image?"

"Sorry, my connections told me that the Chu family company's audit and Chu Zhaozhao's disturbance at the company are definitely related. I'll just sit back and wait to see the results."

"It must be because their family's finances were in trouble that they were able to afford to make her a celebrity. Otherwise, how could someone with plain looks and a plain figure like Chu Zhaozhao possibly have such a high status in the entertainment industry? It's all thanks to her family's money..."

The assistant looked through the rearview mirror and noticed that Chu Zhaozhao seemed to be reading online comments, thinking about how to say something nice.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, you know these people are just there to watch the fun and make trouble. Don't worry about what they say. We just need to do our best."

"I'm fine. I just wanted to see how much netizens know about the matter. Do they know more than me, or more than Chu Tianyi? It seems that they don't know."

Chu Zhaozhao gave a helpless smile and shook his head.

[Yeah, how could we possibly know more? But Cheng Feifei, you're so cruel! You've played everyone around...]

A trace of hatred seemed to ignite in Chu Zhaozhao's heart, and his eyes became colder.

"Sister Zhaozhao, we're here. Let me help you with your bag. We're in Studio 3." The assistant followed Chu Zhaozhao enthusiastically.

As soon as they entered the door, the staff took Chu Zhaozhao to the studio. Chu Zhaozhao didn't stay there for long before preparing for the shooting.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, the dating show said filming will be postponed for three days, but it might clash with Director Zheng's schedule..."

After the shooting, the assistant whispered to Chu Zhaozhao.

Chu Zhaozhao removed her makeup and said calmly, "They were the ones who changed the time at the last minute. If there's any loss, they'll bear it. Director Zheng should be given priority. If you can rush over, then hurry over."

"Then Sister Zhaozhao, you'll have to run back and forth between the two places. It might be very troublesome and tiring."

As soon as the assistant finished speaking, Jiang Yeping called Chu Zhaozhao.

"Zhao Zhao, did you know that the recording of the dating variety show has been postponed for three days?" Jiang Yeping asked happily.

Chu Zhaozhao's answer was very flat. Jiang Yiping guessed that Chu Zhaozhao was still depressed because of the hot search.

"Zhao Zhao, you don't sound very happy. You must cheer up. Or is there any way I can help you?" Jiang Yeping asked with concern.

Chu Zhaozhao shook her head and said with a forced smile: "Yiping, I don't have anything to do now. What do you want to talk to me about?"

"I'm going to your place to record a variety show. I wanted to ask if you have time. I want you to take me there to play for a day, but you should..."

"Yiping, I really don't have time right now. I have a lot of work and family matters. Maybe we can do it next time."

Chu Zhaozhao politely declined Jiang Yeping's offer, and Jiang Yeping did not insist on asking Chu Zhaozhao to take her out to play.

"Zhao Zhao, when I get there I'll ask you out for tea. If you're not free I can go find you on the set. I just want to make sure you're okay."

Chu Zhaozhao hung up the phone with Jiang Yeping. She couldn't help but wonder why Jiang Yeping did all this for her.

In terms of status, Jiang Yeping is higher than her, and in terms of connections in the entertainment industry, Jiang Yeping naturally cannot be worse than her.

Perhaps because the impact of Cheng Feifei was too great, Chu Zhaozhao became wary of everyone around him.

"Did Sister Wei tell me how Xu Yu and his agent are doing now?" Chu Zhaozhao asked the assistant again.

The assistant shook her head, and Chu Zhaozhao removed her makeup, stood up, and got into the car.

I picked up the phone again and saw a message from Xu Yu.

Xu Yu sent many messages last night, but Chu Zhaozhao did not reply, although she did read those messages.

[Zhao Zhao, I have to go out of town today. Please wait for me to come back.]

Chu Zhaozhao replied with an emoticon, and then rushed to meet the costume designer that Zheng Yuanjie introduced last time.

During the break, Chu Zhaozhao received a call from Chu Huaian, but Chu Huaian hung up in a hurry before he finished speaking.

"Zhao Zhao, go home quickly, Chu Tianyi and Cheng Feifei..."

"What's wrong, bro?!"

Chu Zhaozhao called her assistant to hurry to the Chu family.
