Disagree? My husband has a mouth, there was no misunderstanding at all!

Chapter 156 Just when I was worried about not having chopsticks to eat, the enemy delivered them to

The temperature in Tibet is several degrees lower than in northern Beijing, and after a rain shower, it drops to almost zero.

In addition, the high altitude and large temperature difference here mean that you might be able to manage with a sweater at noon, but you'll need to wear a thick down jacket at night.

Qiao Xinyun was wearing a beige down jacket with the hood pulled up tightly, revealing only her face, which was red from the wind.

She was holding a black down jacket that she had brought for Yan Zhuoyu, and she was walking quickly with her head down and lips pursed. She felt that as soon as she opened her mouth, the warmth on her body would be taken away by the wind.

Qiu Tong held a thermos in her hand, her fingers sticking out and turning red from the cold.

She couldn't help but complain, "I never expected these paparazzi to follow us to such a remote place. Not only were they arrogant, but they also dared to hit people when they were in the wrong. Luckily, the bodyguards found out in time and carried those guys away."

Qiao Xinyun was speechless: "Who would have thought that someone would sell their work badge? Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to sneak in. Fortunately, it was discovered in time. Now we just have to pray that the leaked clips are not too many and that the spread is limited, otherwise we'll have to spend a lot of time and effort revising the script and reshooting."

Qiu Tong sniffed, a hint of smugness in her eyes: "They're really audacious. Director Fu isn't someone to be trifled with. They'll be facing a lawsuit soon."

"Let's go, Zhuoyu should be finished filming by now. It's chilly now, don't catch a cold."

The two quickened their pace. Although Qiao Xinyun felt that there shouldn't be any major problems within the crew, she was still a little worried about being away from Yan Zhuoyu for so long.

When she finally saw the crew members and the scene of Yan Zhuoyu and Li Huaisheng confronting each other, her eyelids twitched and she practically sprinted over.

Yan Zhuoyu stood up and looked down at Li Huaisheng, her eyes filled with undisguised displeasure.

Li Huaisheng, on the other hand, always maintained that smiling tiger demeanor, leaving no room for criticism.

As soon as Qiao Xinyun arrived, she immediately shielded Yan Zhuoyu behind her, draping a down jacket over her shoulders while asking in a calm tone, "What happened? What's wrong?"

Yan Zhuoyu told Qiao Xinyun everything that had just happened, including Li Huaisheng's suggestive remarks, which could almost be considered harassment.

However, Yan Zhuoyu entrusted her phone to Qiao Xinyun for safekeeping during filming. This was a vast grassland with no surveillance equipment recording anything, and there was no other evidence to prove Li Huaisheng's ulterior motives.

When Li Huaisheng saw Qiao Xinyun arrive, his expression remained calm as he watched the two of them talking quietly in front of him with a smile.

After the two finished their conversation, he calmly raised his hand, adopting a magnanimous posture: "You must be Xiao Yan's manager, Xiao Qiao?"

Qiao Xinyun's heart skipped a beat, and goosebumps rose all over her body.

Over the years, she has rarely heard anyone call her "Xiao Qiao," especially when that person acts as if he is Zhou Yu.

It's even greasier now.

Li Huaisheng, completely oblivious to her inner resentment, continued, "Actually, it's nothing serious. Xiao Yan might have misunderstood me. When we were rehearsing the scene earlier, I took her script. Although I'm well-maintained and look like I'm in my early thirties, my eyesight is indeed a bit poor, and I have to get close to see clearly. That's why Xiao Yan misunderstood."

He then joked self-deprecatingly, "At my age, I'm old enough to be both of your fathers. To outsiders, I'm a respectable veteran actor. Even if something were true, with my reputation, no one would believe you, right?"

"Of course, I was just joking. I've always acted with integrity, how could I do such a thing? Xiao Yan is young and doesn't know any better, I'm magnanimous and won't hold it against her. After all, when it comes to matters between men and women, you women always have a bit of an advantage in public opinion, right?"

Qiao Xinyun felt a little regretful after hearing his words.

She should have let Qiu Tong go get the down jacket by herself. That old man was spouting vulgarities; her young lady had to listen to him for so long, it must have been so hard on her ears.

As for a misunderstanding? She'd have to be out of her mind to believe his nonsense; she only trusts her own artists!

Qiao Xinyun retorted without hesitation, "Teacher Li, haven't you had a physical examination recently? I think not only do you have presbyopia, but you also have some problems with the language center of your cerebellum."

Yan Zhuoyu was momentarily stunned by her manager's words.

If Yan Zhuoyu's style of handling things is to take action rather than waste words, then Qiao Xinyun is definitely a soft nail. She speaks gently, making people save face, but she doesn't forget to scold back. She can be described as a soft nail.

But today...

Li Huaisheng's expression changed slightly, but his smile remained firmly on his face.

Yan Zhuoyu quietly tugged at Qiao Xinyun's arm and pointed to Li Huaisheng's assistant not far away, who was taking pictures.

She has a way out. But if Qiao Xinyun offends someone for her sake and gets into trouble, it will be difficult to handle. Even if the bodyguard is still watching her every day, there will inevitably be oversights.

Li Huaisheng noticed their subtle actions and stopped trying to hide it: "You two young ladies are young and impetuous, inexperienced in the ways of the world, and your careers are just beginning. Every step is crucial. You mustn't act rashly."

“My assistant just took some photos. Given how rude you were to me, if these photos were posted online, I'm afraid quite a few people would side with me, right? Then, you two would be in serious trouble…”

He sighed, adopting an attitude of concern for them.

Just as Qiao Xinyun was about to say a few more words, Yan Zhuoyu, contrary to her usual behavior, softened her tone: "We misspoke just now."

She lowered her head, but a smile was suppressed on her lips.

Li Huaisheng nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, Xiao Qiao, look at you, you're not even as sensible as your artist."

His eyes held a hint of disdain. He had thought Yan Zhuoyu would be difficult to deal with, but she had become timid after being intimidated.

However, this little girl has grown up to be even more beautiful than her mother. It wouldn't hurt to play around with her, or keep her by my side as a pet. If I'm happy, I can give her some resources; if I'm not happy, I can send her away. It would be a way of getting revenge for the embarrassment Jiang Yuelin caused him back then.

Thinking of this, Li Huaisheng felt relieved.

He discreetly pulled a room key from his pocket, slipped it into Yan Zhuoyu's script, and handed it to her: "Now that you've figured it out, come to my room tonight, and I'll explain the play to you in more detail."

When Li Huaisheng saw Yan Zhuoyu take it, he looked down on her even more.

He kept a proper distance and whispered a hint: "Remember to eat dinner before you come. You'll have more energy to work better."

He emphasized the word "gan" (干), laughed twice, turned and left, perfectly embodying the phrase "sanctimonious and hypocritical."

Qiao Xinyun stared at his departing figure, understanding in her heart that Yan Zhuoyu had just done it to protect her.

only……

"Zhuoyu, what are you going to do with this room key?"

Yan Zhuoyu winked at her and flicked the room card in her hand: "I was just worried about not having chopsticks for dinner, and the enemy delivered them to me on their own initiative."

She pulled her phone out of her down jacket pocket, the screen showing the recording function in progress: "And I also recorded it. Teacher Li is going to give me acting instructions, so of course I have to share it with everyone. Sharing is worse than keeping it to yourself."

Qiao Xinyun patted her pocket and pulled out a voice recorder: "This was confiscated from Li Yunsheng before. She didn't want it anymore, so I kept it. I didn't expect it to come in handy today."

At this moment, Qiu Tong also quietly walked over: "I also recorded a video, but the phone's resolution isn't very good. When I zoomed in and pointed it at Li Huaisheng's face, it was a bit blurry."

Yan Zhuoyu's fox-like eyes narrowed into crescent shapes, and the hat on her head made her look even more like a cunning little fox.

As the saying goes, "People who are not from the same boat will not enter the same door."

Having spent a lot of time with her, the two men's first reaction when something happened was to preserve evidence and make full use of their mobile phones.

Yan Zhuoyu asked Qiu Tong to watch the cups while she and Qiao Xinyun went to find Fu Zhuchen.

If someone slips a room key into Director Fu's film crew, that's something to talk about.
