After the Voices Were Heard by the Rich Family
After the Voices Were Heard by the Rich Family — 9

  Inside the large flat sofa, Ji Xiangchen was chatting with Zhou Li about joining the crew.

  Zhou Li usually not only takes care of Ji Xiangchen, but also other artists. He did not follow the crew during the filming this time, only a young assistant followed Ji Xiangchen.

  So he still needs to remind him when he needs to be reminded.

  ”This play is directed by Director Wang. You should shoot well. You won’t have to worry about not getting any more roles after you finish the filming.”

  Director Wang is known to be very strict in the circle. Basically, your acting skills will be improved after watching his plays.

  ”Also, control your hot temper.”

  Ji Xiangchen held the script, without even raising his eyelids, and said perfunctorily: “I know.”

  Seeing Ji Xiangchen’s indifferent look, Zhou Li felt angry, but the other party happened to be the young master of the Ji family. No matter how much he disliked him, he couldn’t scold him too harshly.

  Zhou Li gritted his teeth

  ”One more thing. Take it easy this time and don’t create any bad scandals with the actress you’re acting with.”

  ”Last time, the girl had her photo of her having dinner with you posted by someone else, and now she is still being scolded by haters online from time to time.”

  Hearing this, Ji Xiangchen finally reacted. He paused flipping through the script and his eyes showed a hint of pain.

  Zhou Li knew that he had made the right choice.

  In the previous drama, Ji Xiangchen was very close to his partner, female No. 4, who was a female artist who debuted through a talent show and had a huge number of fans.

  The photo of the two of them having dinner together was exposed and immediately caused heated discussions online, and was on several hot searches.

  Ji Xiangchen has a bad reputation.

  How could fans not go crazy thinking about their idol being with someone in the entertainment industry who is famous for having a bad temper?

  As soon as the photo came out, fans almost chased after the artist and asked: Why would you let yourself fall and be with a man like this!

  Female 4 still has many fans who turned against her

  After this incident, the artist and Ji Xiangchen gradually drifted apart, and the situation improved a little. However, I don’t know if it was because she was too close to Ji Xiangchen, the artist’s career luck has not been very good in the past one or two years.

  So from time to time, some people would go to Ji Xiangchen’s Weibo to scold him for bringing bad luck to that artist, and the scolding was particularly harsh.

  Speaking of this matter, Ji Xiangchen’s mood was a little off, as if he was trying hard to suppress something, and he said solemnly: “I know.”

  Thinking of what happened before, the young man’s face, which didn’t have much emotion, turned a little gloomy.

  Ji Xiangchen was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Zhou Li and asked a question out of the blue.

  ”Brother Li, I want to ask you something.”

  Zhou Li was puzzled: “What’s the matter?”

  Ji Xiangchen looked at him with a terribly dark look in his eyes: “So, Brother Li, were you really sent by the rival?”

  Fang Ning’s words that day kept circulating in his mind.

  It has to be said that he couldn’t refute what Fang Ning said. Zhou Li really seemed like someone sent by the other party to destroy him. He kept talking about him and scolding him.

  He has been with Zhou Li for so many years, but Fang Ning, who has been married to Ji Xiangnian for a few days, treats him better.

  It’s boring. This is really boring.

  Zhou Li’s expression looked a little unnatural. He opened his mouth to refute, but saw Ji Xiangchen staring at him. His eyes were filled with indescribable emotions, as if he was completely disappointed about something.

  Ji Xiangchen said again: “Forget it, if you have nothing else to do, you can leave. I want to read the script carefully by myself.”

  Zhou Li wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but he didn’t know what to say. In the end, he could only utter: “I have already arranged for assistant Xiao Yang. You will leave for the group tomorrow. You should prepare well today.”

  After the agent left, Ji Xiangchen threw the script aside, his eyes blank, and no one knew what he was thinking.

  The girl Zhou Li was talking about was someone he met during the filming of a previous drama, and he had helped that girl with some things.

  So in order to thank him, she treated him to dinner, he was photographed like this, and his unlucky physique implicated her.

  I heard that her career has not been doing well in the past two years.

  He is very sorry.

  Wait, let’s talk about the actors I acted with.

  He remembered that the person acting with him this time was Fang Ning.

  His role in the play was a villain, and the script was incomplete. Because Fang Ning was Ji Xiangnian’s wife, when the director approached him, he specifically asked about the relationship between Fang Ning’s role and his own.

  Given the relationship between the two, he naturally wouldn’t take a role that was too intimate.

  The director revealed to him that Fang Ning and the character he played were siblings and had a family relationship.

  After thinking about it, Ji Xiangchen’s eyes darkened. He packed up his things, picked up the car keys and headed for the Ji family villa.

  I went back to remind Fang Ning not to get too close to me, so as not to drag her down and prevent her from getting any acting jobs for several years.

  After all, she had helped him scold Zhou Li before.

  ———

  On the other side, Ji Xiangyi finished dealing with the company’s affairs.

  Just then she picked up the information about Fang Ning and Ji Xiangchen’s filming that the assistant had placed on the desk early in the morning.

  Ji Xiangyi lowered her eyes, flipped through the information and read it line by line.

  This drama is an ancient political intrigue script, and the plot revolves around three aspects: imperial power, official struggles, and historical cycles.

  Fang Ning and Ji Xiangchen play a pair of siblings who go to the capital to file a complaint and depend on each other for survival.

  There was no emotional scene as the assistant mentioned.

  There weren’t any passionate scenes either. Tsk, she thought there really were love scenes, what a waste of her time watching.

  That’s really boring.

  After reading it, Ji Xiangyi threw the information aside and leaned back in a high-quality chair.

  After dealing with a large pile of documents, Ji Xiangyi felt more exhausted than ever before, both physically and mentally. Zhao Cheng’s infidelity, endless overtime work, and endless documents to deal with.

  She was just about to lean back in her chair and take a nap.

  The assistant suddenly appeared: “Boss Ji, Miss Xia is looking for you.”

  Ji Xiangyi’s eyebrows moved slightly, Xia Qing

  She is a girl she has known for a long time.

  The daughter of the boss of the company that Ji Xiangnian cooperated with, she met her at a banquet and they have kept in touch ever since.

  ”Let her in.”

  After a few minutes, a beautiful woman walked in with a gift box of snacks in her hands. She was wearing a pair of high heels and a white suspender skirt, looking intellectual and elegant.

  ”Xiang Yi, have you been so busy recently? I just asked your assistant where you were, and he said you were still dealing with documents.” Xia Qing sat on the sofa next to the small coffee table in the office and poured herself some tea.

  Ji Xiangyi also sat on the tea table and took the tea from the other party without any hurry: “Well, I’ve been a little busy with work recently. By the way, what do you want to see me about?”

  Xia Qing tilted her head slightly, unconsciously gathering her hair behind her ears, and pushed the snack gift box over: “I came back from filming and happened to pass by the snack shop you like, so I bought some and came to see what you’ve been doing lately.”

  Ji Xiangyi opened the snack box. The snacks were beautifully presented and exuded a strong fragrance. “Thank you.”

  ”Try it fresh out of the oven.

  ”Yeah, it’s pretty good.”

  …

  The two people’s personalities are compatible. Ji Xiangyi’s personality is cold and dull, while Xia Qing is the kind of girl who is good at chatting.

  The two of them talked for about ten minutes.

  Xia Qing looked at the time, put down the teacup, and subconsciously brushed back her long hair: “By the way, Xiang Yi, I heard that your brother went abroad to discuss cooperation. Hasn’t he come back in such a long time?”

  Ji Xiangyi paused holding the teacup, restrained her rare smile, and said coldly: “Well, not yet.”

  She has always known that Xia Qing is interested in Ji Xiangnian.

  But she thought the other party came here today because of her, but it seems she was overthinking.

  Xia Qing showed a bit of disappointment on her face: “I thought your brother had come back. My dad went fishing at sea today and caught a few fish. He also asked your brother to come to my house for a meal.”

  “It’s a bit of a pity.”

  Ji Xiangyi put down the teacup, and her tone suddenly became a little unfamiliar: “Yeah, it’s a bit regrettable.”

  ”If there’s nothing else, Xiang Yi, I’ll go back first.”

  ”Okay, thanks for the snack.”

  After Xia Qing left, Ji Xiangyi called her assistant, threw the box of snacks Xia Qing brought to the assistant, and said lightly: “I don’t like these Western snacks, here you go.”

  She prefers barbecue to snacks.

  It’s better to gain a few more pounds than to receive a false gift.

  Speaking of barbecue, Ji Xiangyi thought of Fang Ning who kept putting barbecue on her plate last night, saying this one was delicious and that one was delicious, but in her heart she was actually asking for a few pounds of meat from her.

  The barbecue is very good and spicy, and it is especially refreshing when paired with a cup of Coke.

  Ji Xiangyi looked up at the time. It was five o’clock in the afternoon.

  She frowned and glanced at the pile of documents on the desk, then frowned and said to her assistant, “I won’t work overtime tonight. You can sort out the documents that need to be processed urgently, and I will come over to deal with them tomorrow morning.”

  The assistant’s eyes widened with a look of astonishment, and he wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

  Ji Xiangyi, a woman who had climbed up from the bottom of society less than two years after graduating from campus, became an overtime addict and was cruel to others and even crueler to herself.

  In the short one year that he had followed her, he had never seen this woman late or leave early. She was a typical obsessive-compulsive person who always wanted to finish today’s work today.

  Ji Xiangyi actually left early, oh my god.

  ———

  On the other side, Fang Ning was sitting in the back garden of the villa reading a script and talking about work with her agent. The agency found an advertisement for her and asked Fang Ning if she wanted to take it.

  Fang Ning really wants to give up.

  But there is a saying that it is better to have something yourself than to have it from your parents. Who in the world would complain about having too much money?

  The several million yuan that Ji Xiangnian gives her every month is hers, and the money she earns herself is also hers. Who doesn’t want more money?

  So Fang Ning agreed almost immediately.

  After discussing the advertisement, Fang Ning sat back in a rattan chair, enjoying the breeze while memorizing her lines. She would be joining the crew tomorrow.

  She was not an actor before she traveled through the book, and she didn’t know how good her acting skills were, so she just memorized her lines and prepared herself.

  Try not to be the most conspicuous person in the crew.

  Who knew that just as she picked up the script, a car sound came from the door.

  ———

  Ji Xiangchen parked the car and walked into the hall. He didn’t see Fang Ning. Just then, the housekeeper came out of the kitchen. He stopped and asked, “Uncle Li, where is Fang Ning?”

  ”Fang Ning?” The butler didn’t know Fang Ning’s name, so he asked puzzledly.

  Ji Xiangchen straightened his neck and said uncomfortably: “That’s right, where is my sister-in-law?”

  Uncle Li now understood: “Oh, Madam is in the backyard, what does the Second Young Master want…”

  Before the butler could finish his words, Ji Xiangchen disappeared.

  Butler Li was still confused. Less than a minute later, the confused Butler Li saw Ji Xiangyi again.

  Ji Xiangyi also returned to the villa. Butler Li was so happy to see everyone coming back one by one today: “Second Miss, why are you back today?”

  Ji Xiangyi handed the things in her hand to Butler Li and asked calmly, “Uncle Li, where is Fang Ning?”

  Butler Li: “????”

  Seeing that Steward Li was confused, Ji Xiangyi changed her way of addressing and asked again calmly, “Uncle Li, where is my sister-in-law?”

  Butler Li: “…”

  What’s going on? Why are there two people today?

  Instead of looking for my brother, I’m looking for my sister-in-law?!
