Qiqi turned on the computer and looked at the photos "attentively", with a faint smile on the corner of her lips.
Ruan Mengmeng stared at her for a long time. In the end, she said nothing, shook her head, and went back to her workshop.
It was not until Ruan Mengmeng left that the smile on Qiqi's face disappeared dejectedly.
She stared at the photo on the screen 'focusedly', opened PS, and 'expertly' edited the photo.
But…
"Qiqi, what are you doing?" Someone passed by and patted her on the shoulder.
"Photo editing."
"Photo retouching? Is there anyone who makes things look uglier than you do? Your face is even crooked."
Qiqi came back to her senses.
As expected, she had edited the celebrity's face in the photo to an unbearable level. She stared at it in shock, a little embarrassed, darkened her eyes, deleted all the steps, and re-processed it...
"Qiqi, we're about to take a group photo, come in and help." While she was in a daze, the main photographer opened the door of the studio and called her. She looked up and said "Oh", then had to get up and go in.
———
In the studio, several female stars were together. They seemed to be warm and friendly on the surface, but they were actually competing against each other secretly.
but…
Because of Tang Jue's entry, the whole scene became much more harmonious.
Wen Xin suddenly became the object of envy or jealousy for everyone. Who in this circle or outside the circle doesn't want to be favored by the young master of the Tang Sect? Those so-called businessmen and wealthy families who usually interacted with female stars were afraid that they were not even worthy of carrying shoes in front of the young master of the Tang Sect.
Qiqi pushed the door open and entered the studio. Although she tried not to pay attention to the two figures who were whispering very close to her, she could still sense all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"If you hadn't come in just now, you would have missed all the wonderful scenes. As soon as Mr. Tang came in, all the female stars stared at him and kept putting on their makeup. Before, they said we couldn't take photos that were too revealing, but now, they can't wait to take off all their clothes." The assistant gossiped to Qiqi in a low voice.
Qiqi pursed her lips and replied perfunctorily, "Really?"
"That's right. Sister Qiqi, do you think he and Wen Xin are a good match? I think Wen Xin is not as pretty as Mr. Tang."
"Work hard and stop gossiping. Go prepare the lighting board." Qiqi ended the topic with one sentence. The assistant couldn't help but look at her twice more. Was it an illusion? She seemed to be in a much worse mood today than ever before.
———
Take pictures and carry on.
Qiqi was responsible for staring at the photos, and her eyes would occasionally glance at Tang Jue who was standing alone in the distance - like everyone here.
And Tang Jue...
His sight was always fixed on Wen Xin's face among the female stars. The two of them met each other in the air, and their eyes were filled with sweetness.
Qiqi just felt a severe pain in her lower abdomen.
So much so that…
Even my chest felt stuffy and I couldn't breathe.
finally…
After half an hour, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up and told his assistant, "I'll let you watch over here. I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going to go out for some fresh air."
"Sister Qiqi, are you okay?"
"fine."
Qiqi replied calmly and walked out quickly.
When she went out, she had to pass by Tang Jue. She walked faster and faster, not wanting to stop by him even for a moment.
But…
As they passed each other, the man suddenly grabbed her elbow.
She twisted the man's hand almost reflexively, "Mr. Tang, please let go."
She kept it to herself, not wanting anyone else present to find out.
Tang Jue stared at her pale face, wanting to say something. In the end, he just smiled at her and said frivolously, "Miss Qi, you treat me like a wild animal and avoid me so quickly. Are you afraid that I will eat you?"
"Mr. Tang, your girlfriend is watching over there, please respect yourself." Her face was tense as she pried his fingers apart.
This man is extremely annoying.
Didn't you just pretend not to know her? Why didn't you just keep pretending all the way? Why bother with her
"Self-respect?" Tang Jue chuckled, "Miss Qi, I'm afraid you have some misunderstandings."
He slowly loosened his hand, and his extremely handsome face lowered slightly, leaning in front of her. The fragrance followed, entangled with her breath, Qiqi's heartbeat paused for a moment, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Then, she heard Tang Jue speak in her ear: "I heard that you are the one who will deal with Wen Xin's photos. Miss Qi, please take good care of it. I don't want to see her unhappy."
"… "
so…
He stopped me just to give me some advice and make his girlfriend happy
Qiqi suddenly felt her lower abdomen aching even more, so much so that even her heart felt an inexplicable sourness.
The corners of her lips curved up in a slight smile, "Mr. Tang is really considerate. But don't worry, even if you don't ask me, I will still take good care of Miss Wen's photos. Mr. Tang, is there anything else? If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Tang Jue just stared at her coldly. The smile on her face made his eyes turn colder.
then…
He stood up slowly and looked away, no longer looking at her.
The whole body was gradually surrounded by a touch of coolness.
Qiqi no longer had the heart to think too much. She turned sideways, avoided Tang Jue, and walked over quickly. The moment she closed the door, the corners of her lips drooped. Her shoulders also drooped.
Even when I was outside, breathing was still uncomfortable...
Uncomfortable.
I feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
But I dare not think deeply about the reason.
———
That day.
Finally, under the envious eyes of the crowd, Tang Jue led Wen Xin away.
Almost everyone in the magazine stood up to see Tang Jue off, except Qiqi, who didn't even raise her head. Later, Ruan Mengmeng said to her, "Qiqi, people like Tang Jue are just mirages. Just watch them from afar, don't yearn for them. Otherwise, you will end up with nothing and you will be the one who gets hurt."
Qiqi was silent.
What Ruan Mengmeng didn't know was that this man was not just a mirage that made people yearn for him. He was also a deadly opium poppy. Once you get infected, you will become addicted...

Mo Xun was a little overwhelmed by the child's affairs.
Two days later, Qiqi was watching TV at home. She was bored and switching channels, and a figure jumped by, so she subconsciously stopped the channel. On TV, it was entertainment news. Today was the premiere of Wen Xin's new movie, and this time, she was wearing a dress, but she was not holding the male lead's arm, but...
Tang Jue.
The spotlights were so bright that it was almost impossible to open your eyes. That man was not a star, but he was far more dazzling than a star. In front of the camera and under the microphone, his every move was so elegant and noble that people could only look up to him.
Qiqi stared at his and Wen Xin's hands in a daze, her eyes darkening.
The cell phone suddenly rang at this moment.
She came back to her senses, tried to calm down, and then picked up the phone.
