The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 438

The scene of their gaze-locking was shot repeatedly until Qin Wei lost all emotions. Director Yuan didn't push her and let her take a break. After confirming that Qiao Sixiao could continue shooting, he decided to proceed with filming a few close-up shots of the dance.

As Qin Wei went to rest on the side, she saw Ju An sitting on her chair, with Hong Dou sitting on the chair next to him.

When Qin Wei approached, Hong Dou was chatting with Ju An.

Hong Dou asked Ju An, "Long time no see, do you remember me?"

Ju An remained silent.

Hong Dou continued, "Have you seen peacocks? My grandmother's company has them. I went to see them, but they didn't display their feathers. My grandma said that your mother went to see the peacocks, and only then did they display. How about we go together one day?"

Ju An remained silent.

Hong Dou placed a teddy bear in Ju An's lap and touched his nose, saying, "Are you bored when your mother is filming? I'll give you a girlfriend named Le Ye. You can play together."

Ju An remained silent.

Hong Dou came for a set visit.

Ju An should have been in the RV, but it was brought to the set because of Hong Dou. At this moment, Hong Dou and Ju An were too adorable. Qin Wei watched them chat from the side and didn't have the heart to disturb them for a while.

"Don't worry about this matter, okay?"

After finishing a scene, Liu Xin took a break and walked over, casually throwing the teddy bear on the side of the chair, then sat down and rested, holding her chair.

This was something Hong Dou hadn't expected. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up the teddy bear and Ju An, carefully checking if they were dirty.

Fortunately, the ground was clean, and the two little ones weren't dirtied.

"Ju An, I'm sorry I didn't take care of you..."

Hong Dou muttered to herself, slightly affecting Liu Xin and her assistant's conversation.

A child actor?

Liu Xin glanced at him and waved her hand, saying, "Kid, go play on the side, okay? The adults are talking here, go away..."

Hong Dou glanced at her. She hadn't even retaliated for Liu Xin throwing away Ju An and Le Ye earlier, yet now Liu Xin occupied her territory and dared to drive her away??

Although Hong Dou couldn't read, she recognized the character "Qiao" written on the chair.

Three characters, although she didn't recognize the other two, the beginning was "Qiao." She had seen Qin Wei's name before, with lots of strokes, messy and jumbled, so both the chair and the other chair belonged to her!

A small ball flew over and hit Liu Xin on the head.

It didn't hurt much, but it startled her. Liu Xin looked at the toy on the ground, then turned her head to look at the child who had just been in front of her.

The child was also looking at her, with an angry expression!

It was him, no doubt about it—mischievous to the extreme!

Liu Xin gritted her teeth and walked over to ask Hong Dou, "Why are you so annoying? Whose child are you?"

"I'm from here."

Two voices came from different directions, speaking in unison.

Qin Wei walked over, and Hong Dou, who had been initially stubborn, started feeling wronged upon seeing Qin Wei. She pouted and raised her hand, wanting Qin Wei to hold her.

"Wuwuwu..."

The familiar little train started moving, and Qin Wei held him, trying to comfort him:

"Did I scare you? Don't cry..."

Hong Dou, holding onto her neck, cried while saying:

"Wuwuwu... I didn't take care of Ju An properly, nor did I take care of Le Ye. They both fell, and she threw them!"

Qin Wei first comforted the child:

"It's okay, Ju An is very strong, and he knows it's not your fault, so he won't blame you. As for Le Ye... who is that? It doesn't matter, Le Ye doesn't blame you either. It's fine, it's fine, it's fine~"

Seeing Auntie walking over, Hong Dou felt more confident and cried even louder:

"Wuwawawawa!"

Qiao Sixiao glanced at him and said:

"That's enough."

"Oh."

Hong Dou obediently shut his mouth, tears streaming down his face as he looked at Qin Wei.

Qin Wei silently wiped his tears.

Liu Xin couldn't figure out the situation for a moment. Using her already not-so-smart brain, she thought for a while but still didn't understand who she had offended.

"Miss Liu Xin, do you have any complaints against me? Treating my child like this," Qiao Sixiao asked calmly but with an evident tone of questioning.

Although Liu Xin didn't flatter Qiao Sixiao, she also never provoked her. The main reason was that the two of them were on different paths and had no conflicting interests.

So she usually didn't pay any attention to Qiao Sixiao.

This inexplicable situation must be a misunderstanding. If it's unnecessary, Liu Xin definitely didn't want to have a conflict with her.

Faced with the somewhat impolite questioning, Liu Xin replied:

"Ah, this... it's a misunderstanding. I didn't touch him from beginning to end, he suddenly hit me... Huh? Is he Miss Qiao's child?"

Qiao Sixiao raised an eyebrow and asked in return:

"Is that very strange?"

As she spoke, she turned to her assistant Xiao Wang.

"Who brought him here? Bringing him here without taking care of him, the set is chaotic, and there are all sorts of dirty things. What if something happened?"

Xiao Wang was also confused, but then he saw Assistant Xiao Liu, who works for He Zong, come over and apologize to Qiao Sixiao with a bow.

It turned out that Hong Dou had a day off today. Yesterday evening, he told He Hong that he wanted to visit his aunt, and He Hong thought it wouldn't be a big deal to let him visit, so she had Xiao Liu bring him over.

Xiao Liu had been keeping an eye on him all along, thinking that the child wouldn't be in any safety danger. He just picked up a ball, and as a result, he cried like this.

Xiao Liu went to thank Qin Wei with a bow and then wanted to hug Hong Dou.

But as everyone knew, except for Liu Xin and her assistant who didn't pay attention to these things, everyone else knew that Qin Hong Dou was most attached to Qin Wei. If Qin Wei was present, he would disown anyone else.

For example, now he raised his hand to push Xiao Liu, asking him to pick up the ball.

Xiao Liu, of course, wouldn't refuse. He Hong was her immediate boss, and whatever this little kid said, He Hong listened. So he was her boss's boss, and she had to listen to him even more.

Hong Dou picked up the ball, aimed at Liu Xin, and accurately hit her on the head once again.

Qin Wei praised Hong Dou:

"Well done, Dou Ge! Have you ever considered playing baseball in the future? Your pitching is so accurate!"

Liu Xin frowned and looked at Hong Dou again, dissatisfied.

Hong Dou was not satisfied and asked Xiao Liu to continue picking up the balls.

Liu Xin couldn't bear it and pointed at Hong Dou, saying, "You should stop now. 'Once, twice, but not thrice!'"

Her voice was a bit loud, which annoyed Qiao Sixiao. He said, "Why are you shouting at Hong Dou? Do you want to hit him? In front of me?"

Liu Xin was angry but tried to restrain herself. She said, "You saw it too. He just threw the ball at..."

Before she could finish her sentence, her temper flared up again and hit the mark once more!

"See that! Your child... I don't care what your relationship is, but he has already thrown the ball at me three times!" Qiao Sixiao looked at Liu Xin with a dumbfounded expression and said, "Liu Xin, what are you talking about? I didn't see him throw the ball at you."

Liu Xin: "???"

Qin Wei also looked at Liu Xin innocently and said, "I've been holding the child all this time. When did he throw the ball at you?"

Liu Xin was angry. So all these bear-like parents were indulging their misbehaving children? Fine, they could pretend to be deaf and dumb, but surely someone else saw it? So Liu Xin called over one of the crew members nearby and said, "Little girl, come here. You were here just now, right?"

"Yes, Liu Teacher, what's wrong?" the girl asked.

Liu Xin asked her, "Did you see the child throw the ball at me?"

"No, I only saw you, Teacher Liu, throwing Qin Teacher's bear on the ground and scolding the child a couple of times."

Liu Xin frowned. This was definitely Qin Wei's staff!

Liu Xin asked her, "Alright, tell me, which department are you from? Why are you so dishonest? Who can access the surveillance footage for me?"

"Liu Teacher, I can have my colleague access the surveillance footage for you. By the way, I'm Assistant Ye Jiahe, under Director Yuan," she explained.
