Xu Xiyun still seemed troubled, âBut the production team mightâ¦â
Si Fuqing flexed her fingers and smiled at a leisurely pace, âThen you can watch and see if they dare to forcibly stuff more people into my class.â
Xu Xiyun: â
My apologies for the interruption.
âTeacher Si, someone is looking for you,â a staff member gently knocked on the door at this moment, showing respect. âShe said her surname is Mu. Would you like to meet her?â
âMu?â Si Fuqing stood up, âIâll be right there.â
Mu Qingmeng was dressed quite conservatively today, wearing both a hat and glasses.
She was waiting in the lounge. Seeing Si Fuqing come in, she quickly approached her.
âAuntie Mu, what brings you here?â Si Fuqing took her hand, âHowâs your health?â
âMuch better, thanks to the tea bags you gave me,â Mu Qingmeng smiled, âIâve never felt this light in years.â
Si Fuqing nodded with a smile, âThatâs good to hear.â
âQingqing, I came to say goodbye,â Mu Qingmeng handed her a business card, âThis is my phone number. If you come to the city of Sijiu for filming or anything, you can contact me directly.â
Si Fuqing took the card and raised an eyebrow, âSo, I canât visit you if Iâm not there for filming?â
Mu Qingmeng paused, then laughed, âOf course, youâre always welcome.â âIâll definitely visit in the future,â Si Fuqing said, âIâve never been to Sijiu City.â
âQingqing, as a young woman, you must take good care of yourself,â Mu Qingmeng advised, âThe entertainment industry can be a chaotic place. If you need help, donât hesitate to reach out.â
âEven though Iâve been out of the industry for many years, I still have some influence.â
âI understand,â Si Fuqing hugged her, âDonât worry.â
After exchanging some pleasantries, Mu Qingmeng hurriedly left the training base.
A car was waiting for her outside.
The license plate began with the character for âXia.â
A car from Sijiu.
âMadam,â the guard helped her into the car and looked up, âShould we do something about the young lady you mentioned?â
âNo need,â Mu Qingmeng said softly, âShe doesnât know my identity and has no reason to harm me. Not only should you not investigate her, but you should also protect her.â
âAlso, keep a close eye on the Chen family. Whatever they are up to, thereâs no need to show them any courtesy anymore.â
As she spoke the last sentence, Mu Qingmengâs voice grew noticeably colder.
Whatever sisterly affection she had with Mrs. Chen was now completely gone.
The guard quickly acknowledged.
Only after lighting a stick of incense did he start the car.
Mu Qingmeng opened her eyes and furrowed her brows, âWhat kind of incense is this?â
The guard replied, âItâs imported from Free State. The family checked it and found no issues, so they had me bring it to you, Madam.â
âFree State, huh,â Mu Qingmeng nodded. âPut out the incense. My heart feels quite fine today. The scent is too strong; itâs actually making me uncomfortable.â
The guard complied and snuffed out the incense.
Seeing that Mu Qingmengâs complexion indeed looked good, he said nothing more.
The car swiftly departed.
Around noon, Si Fuqing received desserts sent over by Jiang Changning.
The two women headed to the lounge.
Kicking off her shoes, Si Fuqing comfortably stretched out on the sofa. âThose little rascals have worn me out.â
âCongratulations,â Jiang Changning sat down beside her. âYou finally have fans.
Why not take off your makeup earlier?â
âToo much hassle,â Si Fuqing languidly reclined on the sofa. âIâve passed the age of youthful exuberance. I donât want to compete for unnecessary things.â
Jiang Changning: â
She smiled, âYouâre only eighteen.â
Havenât even had a chance to be youthful.
âLife has thrown a lot at me; Iâve become jaded,â Si Fuqing sighed. âUnfortunately, my beauty is eternal. Look at how pinchable my face is, all collagen. Want to give it a try?â
Jiang Changning: â
She really should have brought a knife instead of desserts.
Casting a sidelong glance at Si Fuqing, Jiang Changning dryly remarked, âYou should get insurance for your face. That way, even if something happens to it, youâll still get some money.â
âThat wonât be necessary; Iâll take good care of my face,â Si Fuqing sat up, flipping over. âBut youâre right about one thing; I should get insurance for my hands.â
In the past, sheâd often get into fights, which frequently resulted in injuries to her hands and arms.
Those were the parts that truly needed protection.
She opened up her text messages and sent a quick note to her boss, Yu Xiheng.
[Boss, have you considered getting insurance for my hands? Theyâre incredibly valuable and can do so much. Plus, theyâre hardworking!]
[Boss]: Hmm, consider it done.
After she received a positive response, Si Fuqing put away her phone, satisfied..
