The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 64

Qin Wei not only gave an interview on the show, but she also sang a song. Because she sang the theme song of "Crayon Shin-chan," a children's song-like tune, she couldn't go off key no matter how she sang it. It didn't require any technical skills.

This was also the first time Shen Kai heard her sing, and it felt... quite magical.

Then there was her criteria for choosing a partner...

When Shen Kai heard her talk about it, he couldn't help but relate it to himself. Apart from being "good-looking and tall," the other criteria didn't seem to fit him very well, which made him somewhat displeased. If he didn't meet the criteria, were there other people who could?!

But then he thought it was funny. Who was she anyway? What does it matter to her what kind of person she likes? Is she even worthy? His own standards for choosing a partner are much higher!

...

As dawn broke, Xiao Jin slowly opened his eyes and saw that Triangle Video had sent him a bunch of things he had never paid attention to. Out of curiosity, he opened the app and found several traces in the browsing history.

Wow, it seemed that Kai ge stayed up all night. He not only watched an interview program but also watched Crayon Shin-chan all night.

Xiao Jin chuckled. Who would have thought that Kai ge, who seemed so mature, would actually enjoy watching something so childish?

Suddenly, Xiao Jin felt that Kai ge became much more approachable, and he decided to keep it a secret for him.

...

Yesterday, after taking photos and doing interviews, they couldn't refuse the kind invitation of the person in charge of Triangle Video and had dinner together. Fortunately, Li Hanming, who was underage, was also there, so no one drank alcohol. They just had a meal and chatted about various topics before going their separate ways.

It was already 3 o'clock in the morning when they arrived home. Qin Wei mustered the last bit of energy to remove her makeup and wash her face before going to sleep.

Before she could wake up naturally, her phone rang and disturbed her.

"Little ancestor, there are two messages for you. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Qin Wei, with her eyes closed, mumbled:

"The third one."

Li Yao: "? Where is the third one..."

Beep beep beep...

Oops, he forgot. He shouldn't tease her.

Li Yao was in a good mood, so he didn't argue with her and called again.

"Hello..."

Qin Wei's not-so-friendly voice came from the other end of the phone.

Commonly known as "morning breath."

"First, the interview from yesterday was ranked first in the ratings on all platforms, and it topped the trending list. The level of discussion about it reached the top three... In short, it was very successful, little ancestor, you might no longer be clueless."

Li Yao's excitement was evident in his tone.

For two years, he had been living in a state of gloom, witnessing his artist's fall from the sky to the bottom, and staying at the bottom ever since.

But unexpectedly, with the help of Xu Mingchuan, he received a notice, and Qin Wei didn't disappoint him either. Not only did she establish a completely new image for herself, but she also sought wealth and honor in danger. This silly and foolish image of hers unexpectedly gained the public's favor. Just from last night to today, she gained 500,000 followers on her Weibo platform.

You should know that in the past two years, most of the people visiting her Weibo were haters, and it was getting colder and quieter, as if she was about to be forgotten by everyone.

But in recent months, it has gradually become lively again. Even when Qin Wei sometimes solidifies her foolish image and does some foolish things, her fans still enjoy it.

Ah, she's the best artist in his hands, and she's about to make a comeback!

Qin Wei replied to him:

"So what? I plan to go through the procedures for resuming my studies in a few days. I'm leaving the entertainment industry. These things have nothing to do with me."

Li Yao became anxious:

"Don't leave! Don't rush to leave!! There's a great opportunity right now. If you seize it, you might be able to make a comeback."

"What opportunity?"

Qin Wei frowned,

"An opportunity that can turn someone like me, who's about to leave the industry, into a sensation?"

...

Due to the successful interview yesterday, the buzz is expected to continue for a while. Many companies took the initiative to approach Li Yao, expressing their interest in collaboration.

Not only that, many variety shows and interviews extended an olive branch to her.

Li Yao didn't rush to accept them, only saying that she would consider it carefully. Then she found some time to call Xu Mingchuan and ask about his plans.

"We can't discuss it over the phone. Let's meet up!"

After hanging up the phone, Xu Mingchuan glanced at the whiteboard hanging on the office wall. It was filled with various colored markers, each line representing Xu Mingchuan's record of Qin Wei's words and actions over the past few months.

There were good and not-so-good things, and some surprises. Overall, he was satisfied. At least it justified the money he had invested during this period.

Xu Mingchuan took out his phone and sent a WeChat message to Li Yao:

[Xu Mingchuan: Let's meet her tonight! I reserved a table at a Western restaurant. It will be private. I think it's necessary to meet in person.]

Five minutes later, Li Yao replied:

[OK]

Xu Mingchuan started to feel a bit nervous again, thinking about the awkward scene during their last meeting. He didn't know if Qin Wei would be willing to see him again.

...

After being awakened by Li Yao's phone call, Qin Wei couldn't fall back asleep. She got up and spent half an hour on the treadmill, then took a shower. She felt refreshed when she came out.

Her physical condition wasn't originally good, but under her strict self-discipline during this period, it had started to improve. Not only could she complete a full set of aerobic exercises, but doing half a set of six pull-ups wasn't as exhausting as before.

You see, when she first started exercising, she couldn't even do a single pull-up.

She checked her bank balance on her phone, and Qin Wei couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. With a little wealth, she was already a rich woman. She didn't want to struggle in this industry anymore. Even the wealthiest stars couldn't withstand the financial compensation after a few accidents. The higher you rise, the harder you fall. She wasn't eager to experience that.

She applied a face mask and leisurely lay on the couch, scrolling through her phone. Inadvertently, she came across some gossip about Lin Qiqi.

Some people dug up her past scandals, revealing that she was a mistress willing to become a high-level executive's third party. The videos were posted online, and she received a lot of backlash from netizens. As a result, sponsors terminated their contracts, and her company put her on the shelf. It had been several months, and only a few loyal fans remained online, proving her existence.

Qin Wei thought about the original owner of her body, realizing that her career had been hindered mainly due to personal life issues... A chill ran down her spine. She couldn't help but wonder if this matter would be brought up again and drag her into the abyss as well?

Key among these details, whether they are true or false, she herself didn't know!

Sure enough, she was just someone who took the blame for the original owner!!

She must retreat! Take the money and stay away from trouble!

Ding dong—

The door was knocked, but after waiting for a while with no one opening it, Li Yao took the key and let himself in.

Qin Wei was in the kitchen cooking noodles and didn't hear.

"Don't eat too many carbs. Hurry up and get dressed. I'll take you to meet some friends."

Li Yao turned off the stove and pushed and shoved her to go upstairs and change clothes.

"Who is it? I have no friends, I'm not going!"

Qin Wei's face was filled with refusal.

Li Yao pushed her up the stairs and said,

"Oh, don't ask anymore. If I tell you, you won't want to go. Don't think too much. Everything I'm doing now is to restore your career to its former glory. Little brat, just cooperate a bit!"

Qin Wei casually asked him,

"Who is it? It's not Shen Kai, is it?!"
