Chapter 187: Chapter 187: An Honest Man’s Counterattack (2)
“What? Zhang Qi slept with you? Gurl, please look at yourself in the mirror.”
“Zhang Qi is really unlucky to have met a family of weirdos.”
“Gurl, didn’t you rely on Zhang Qi’s connections to get those few roles? Otherwise, do you think any director would want you for your sh*t acting skills?”
“Yo, did you switch off the comments? Turn it on if you have the guts. I can roast you until you deactivate your account!”
Almost no one was on Xiao Nan and Xiao Xue’s side.
The divorce was definitely happening.
In a villa in the capital, Xiao Nan grabbed Wang Zhiwen’s arm and cursed, “This is your son! You actually ignored him! I divorced Zhang Qi for you, and this is how you treat me?”
Wang Zhiwen was originally a small fry who did not have much of a reputation. He had relied on becoming Zhang Qi’s manager to gradually earn some income. Now that he had been fired from the company, he had no job and no income. He did not have any extra money to support Xiao Nan and her son.
Wang Zhiwen looked impatient. “I can’t even protect myself, how can I have the time to care about you? I’m going to the southern cities to look for work. Let’s break up.”
After saying that, Wang Zhiwen ran away without turning back.
Xiao Nan was left sitting on the floor, paralyzed. Her six-year-old son did not know what was going on. He was still naively tugging at the corner of Xiao Nan’s shirt, saying that he was hungry and wanted to eat.
Xiao Nan slapped him. “Now is not the time to eat!”
Her son burst into tears.
Xiao Nan’s emotions were complicated, and her eyes looked out of the window in confusion. She missed the time she had spent with Zhang Qi more and more. This man was thoughtful and kind. He respected the elderly, loved the young, and was generous. It was only because she was blind that she had a devious idea.
But there was no room for regret…
Her privileged days were ruined by her.
—
Zhang Qi’s mind was completely focused on work these days.
The company had assigned him a new agent to help him smooth out the negative public opinion on the internet. The divorce lawyer he hired with a lot of money was helping him with the divorce case in an orderly manner. Xiao Nan pretty much was left with nothing and had to compensate Zhang Qi for mental damage.
Zhang Qi had lost a lot of weight recently. He looked tired. It was not just because of work, but also because of his personal life.
However, his current image was very much like the bodyguard in the movie, and Lu Shanhe did not interfere much.
Recently, Lu Shanhe’s attention was mostly on the second female lead, Cao Yuezhi. Cao Yuezhi’s filming condition was very bad. She would often have to refilm a simple scene 40 to 50 times before it was satisfactory. Especially when she was acting against the female lead, Gu Manxi. Cao Yuezhi’s acting skills were often non-existent.
Lu Shanhe frowned repeatedly and became more and more dissatisfied.
It was another afternoon. Cao Yuezhi and Gu Manxi had a scene where they quarreled in the rain. The man-made rain fell. Gu Manxi was already in character and her eyes were red. On the other hand, Cao Yuezhi’s movements were bashful and she could not get into character at all.
The scene was filmed for a full five hours, but it still did not achieve the effect that Lu Shanhe wanted.
Lu Shanhe’s patience was almost worn out, and he was furious. He put down the loudspeaker in his hand. “Cao Yuezhi! Do you even know how to act? You want to quarrel with Chunfeng, not memorize your lines! If you don’t know how to quarrel, go to the market and learn from those aunties!”
Cao Yuezhi’s eyes instantly turned red.
Her ears were burning hot, and she was extremely embarrassed.
She played a high and mighty Miss Yue Ya from the Republic of China. In the beginning, she was unruly and always opposed the heroine Chunfeng (Gu Manxi), but in the end, she threw herself into the war against Japan and sacrificed herself in glory. The character was well-constructed. As long as she could perform it well, it would be no problem for her to win an international award for Best Supporting Actress.
But the key was that Cao Yuezhi could not perform it well…
