Ding Shumin said it was okay, but her eyes were mostly on her, as if she was afraid that she would make a mistake.
Qin Yue had already made up her mind to have Ding Shumin follow her from now on.
The question now is whether or not to give her a raise, given her diligence and hard work, and by how much.
When Qin Yue and the others returned to the set, a scene had just ended, and Shi Leyao excitedly ran towards Qin Yue.
She went to Qin Yue's side and asked in a low voice, "President Qin, is there some misunderstanding between you and your brother? He seemed distracted after you left. Why don't I bring Qin Xu over so you two can talk it out?"
"What? You don't believe I came to see you?" Qin Yue noticed a dry blade of grass hanging in her hair, so she picked it off and threw it on the ground.
"How could that be? I believe whatever President Qin says." Shi Leyao smiled brightly at her.
Although she said that, Shi Leyao didn't think so in her heart. Compared to herself, Qin Xu was definitely more important.
They are family.
The most likely scenario is that President Qin watched it with both of them.
Qin Yue said gently, "It's still necessary to correct you. Qin Xu is no longer my brother. We siblings have severed ties. Don't expect me to persuade him anymore. Just take care of yourself."
“No…we’re not siblings anymore…” Shi Leyao couldn’t even speak coherently.
"Is it surprising?" Qin Yue asked calmly. "Even close brothers and sisters can fall out, let alone us who aren't blood relatives. It's normal for our relationship to drift apart."
Shi Leyao was really curious about what had happened between the two, but she didn't have the courage to ask.
He really is a big boss.
Let's try to avoid getting too caught up in the gossip about big bosses.
"I understand. I promise I will never mention Qin Xu to you again. I promise to do my job well and will not let you down, Mr. Qin."
Qin Yue nodded slightly: "I saw your performance, very good."
As she spoke, her gaze swept across the room and she caught sight of a familiar face.
The other person was wearing the same flowing costume as Shi Leyao.
"That's... Dong Lingling?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Leyao followed her gaze and asked, "Yes, does President Qin know him?"
Qin Yue shook her head: "I just saw her online on the way here, I didn't expect to see her here. What's your relationship like?"
"Not very good."
Shi Leyao lowered her voice even further, speaking in a tone that only the two of them could hear.
"She's quite arrogant. Although she's not famous and only plays minor roles, she doesn't take us seriously at all. Only the director's words have any effect. I heard that she has a sugar daddy who invested a million yuan in her to give her more screen time."
A dark glint flashed in Qin Yue's eyes.
The big spender.
One million.
This is something Fang Yuanzhou is capable of doing.
What a coincidence!
She contacted Fang Yuanzhou as soon as she got back to her car.
"Sis, how come you, such a busy person, have time to contact me?"
Qin Yue then heard the sound of rapid typing coming from the receiver.
"Alright, stop joking around. I have something important to ask you. Where are you?"
"I'm playing games at home." His phone was on speakerphone and placed to the side, his hands constantly moving the game character. "What's up? Tell me, I'm listening."
"Is your girlfriend Dong Lingling filming 'Lingzhu Mountain'?"
There was a moment of silence on the other end before a reply came: "I think so, but I'm not sure. Is there a problem?"
"It's nothing, I just heard an interesting rumor that you, Young Master Fang, spent a million to please your girlfriend. Do you think it's true or not?"
"You...who told you this nonsense? How could I possibly do such a thing?"
"Really? I just happened to be on set right now, and I even saw Dong Lingling. Do you think I should go up and ask her if the news is true or false?"
The sound of typing on the keyboard immediately stopped, followed by the other person's tense voice: "Sis, are you trying to scare me on purpose?"
Qin Yue hung up the phone.
Just as Fang Yuanzhou was about to call back with trepidation, he received a video from Qin Yue.
He clicked on it.
The figure in the video is indeed Dong Lingling.
Qin Yue: Should I video call you again to confirm?
Fang Yuanzhou called, his tone full of flattery: "Sister, look at you, you finally made it to Nancheng, why did you go to that remote corner?"
I only invested a small amount of money in Dong Lingling, it's nothing, not even worth mentioning. You wouldn't be planning to betray your brother, would you?
It wasn't a lot of money, but if Fang's mother found out that he had spent so much money on a minor celebrity, she would definitely cut off his credit card.
If his card is stopped, he won't survive.
Having just heard Fang's mother say those things at the Fang family home yesterday, Qin Yue knew his concerns and reassured him, "Don't worry, I won't tell your aunt whether you invest one million or ten million. I called you to confirm with you."
"I knew my cousin was the most understanding and considerate."
"Would you like to hear about someone even more understanding?"
"Tell me, tell me!"
"You previously suggested that Dong Lingling sign a product endorsement deal with the company, just to impress your girlfriend. Although that didn't work out, I now have an opportunity for you to shine in front of your girlfriend."
"What?"
Fang Yuanzhou's lips twitched slightly after hearing Qin Yue's words.
He was asked to treat the film crew to dinner, and to a high-end restaurant.
A single meal like that would cost at least 100,000 yuan, right?
More than 100,000 yuan would be enough for him to buy a nice necklace to appease Dong Lingling.
"Sister, although our family is rich, this isn't the way to spend money. We should buy a necklace or a bag instead." He voiced his thoughts.
"A necklace, a bag, or being impressive in front of the entire crew, which do you think is better? Which is more touching?" Qin Yue said. "Besides, I'm not asking you to pay. I've already arranged the venue. You show up and I'll pay. Just consider it me helping you out as your older sister."
Can such a good thing really happen?
Fang Yuanzhou swallowed back the words he was about to say.
"Sis, you wouldn't be in cahoots with Mom to deliberately set me up, would you?"
"What do you have that I would want to cheat you out of? My company's artist plays the female lead in this movie. I booked the hotel in advance to give my artist face."
Now that I know Dong Lingling is your girlfriend, I'm thinking of killing two birds with one stone.
If I really want you to step in, the most important point is that if I invite the director to dinner, he might only agree 50% of the time, but if you're involved, it's 100%.
"You're an investor, not too big, not too small. The director will definitely forgive a day's delay in filming, given the investor's influence. If you don't want to get involved, just pretend I didn't say anything. I'll talk to the director about this after we wrap and won't mention you."
"No, no, no, I'll talk to the director. When, what time? Where?"
