Chapter 311

Two days later, Shen Qingqing returned Guo Yuyang's gifts unchanged, and quietly went back to the Capital City without saying a word. Her leaving also took away Guo Yuyang's heart. He hadn't even gotten it yet, so how could she just leave?

Guo Yuyang was lovesick because of this and had no heart to act, so he made up an excuse and asked the director for leave. He also went back to the Capital City.

But when he went back, he still couldn't find Shen Qingqing. He tried to find her through various connections but there were no leads, so Guo Yuyang gave up.

However, the filming location was remote with nothing to do. He had finally come back and still needed to relax, so he indulged himself and stayed in the bustling metropolis to play for a few days.

After he had played enough, he returned to the crew. When he came back, he was in low spirits and his filming efficiency was also very low.

After filming for only half a day, he said he was tired and didn't want to act anymore.

The staff could only coax and persuade him to persevere.

"Just quit."

Qin Wei, who was sitting on the side waiting for her scenes, suddenly spoke. Her voice wasn't loud but enough for everyone on site to hear. Everyone became quiet.

"Is Teacher Qin also trying to scold me like her?"

Guo Yuyang looked at Qin Wei unpleasantly. Over the past few days, he had seriously studied Qin Wei's current reputation. The internet was full of people scolding her and her fans didn't even dare to make a sound, allowing others to scold her.

He had also been mixing in this circle, and knew that not long ago a gala had cancelled her performance. Adding to their past grievances, he didn't really need to respect her anymore.

Well, before he could even think of how to make things difficult for her, she had voluntarily come knocking.

"Since you don't really want to film anymore, don't ruin this role. Just give up and let someone more suitable take it."

"Teacher Qin, whether it's suitable or not isn't for you to..."

Guo Yuyang didn't get to finish speaking before his agent spoke up for him. But he was met with a cold stare from Qin Wei, suddenly faltered, and didn't continue speaking for some reason.

"Whether it's suitable or not, Ruiqi has the final say."

Guo Yuyang stood up and said,

"But you can quit. It just so happens to free up a role for my girlfriend."

After Guo Yuyang left, Qin Wei asked Li Yao, "What did the internet use to say about me?"

"Fighting sponsors, scolding colleagues, throwing tantrums..."

Qin Wei nodded and prepared to go back to rest. She lightly said, "Change 'scolding colleagues' to 'beating colleagues'." ... The two met again on set in the afternoon. The next scene was an action scene. The general plot was that Star Ablaze faked his death, and Luo Yang didn't believe it and wanted to find him. Her brother tried to stop her, so the siblings fought.

The martial arts director had specifically come to break down the moves for them, then had them try sparring.

Everything was ready, and they started officially filming.

The brother said, "The dead cannot come back to life. He was just a slave. I'll find you someone better in the future."

Luo Yang gritted her teeth, "I won't believe he's dead until I've seen the corpse! Brother, let me out of the manor!"

The director watched from the monitor and saw the male actor's performance was barely passable, while the female actress was emotionally on point right now.

Good, very good.

The brother refused to allow it, so Luo Yang didn't stand on ceremony and threw a straight punch at him. The brother dodged to the side, after which the siblings immediately began fighting.

"Oh!"

This action scene was agile and wonderful, and everyone watched intently. Suddenly, there was a miserable cry and filming stopped.

Guo Yuyang was holding his head and writhing on the ground in pain.

Qin Wei also had a pained expression as she held her own hand.

The on-site doctor hurried over to examine them separately and concluded:

Guo Yuyang had a fractured brow bone, while Qin Wei was fine, though she said her hand hurt, so it was probably soft tissue contusion.

Guo Yuyang was sent to the hospital. Qin Wei's injury was minor, so she was fine after simple on-site treatment.

Because Guo Yuyang's injury was on his face, his company took it very seriously. The boss came over that same day, and even Ruiqi Asia Pacific manager Tim rushed over.

By the time they arrived, it was night. Because it was a minor fracture, surgery wasn't required - only cold compresses to reduce swelling and inflammation.

But Guo Yuyang insisted that Qin Wei had done it on purpose and wanted to pursue responsibility to the end.

However, the crew had repeatedly watched the videos. The three cameras had all been recording simultaneously, and from three angles it was clear this was just an accident.

The director also stood up to ask Qin Wei, "It's inevitable that accidents happen during action scenes. Even if you want to sue, the evidence is in these videos which can only prove this was an accident. What we need to discuss now is whether to recast his role or halt filming because of his injury."

Ruiqi manager Tim said that if they recast, Ruiqi would withdraw funding.

Qin Wei laughed lightly, "Then withdraw funding."

From when she advised Guo Yuyang to quit, she had already prepared to sell her house and invest in this. Her main thought was that his acting skills were simply ruining this role in the drama. Even if they finished filming, it would still affect viewership after airing.

She might as well invest in it herself. In short, she was determined to "take down" that idiot Guo Yuyang. If worst came to worst, she could just buy a new house after getting the returns - it wouldn't be too late.

"Oh~ Why is brother's eye socket bruised?"

Shen Qingqing had come back again. Not only that, she had also brought Yu Yu with her.

"Senior sister, I missed you so much!"

Yu Yu went over to hug Qin Wei and gave her a tangerine flavored lollipop. "Qingqing, I'm fine! You've finally come back!"

Guo Yuyang covered his eyes and pretended to be strong.

"Sister Qin Wei, did you hit him?"

Shen Qingqing turned to ask Qin Wei.

The director took the initiative to show Shen Qingqing the video.

The video simply showed normal fighting scenes. The punch that knocked Guo Yuyang down hadn't even been thrown by Qin Wei, but was Guo Yuyang being a beat slow and crashing into it himself.

Shen Qingqing clapped, "My sister's martial arts skills are amazing! I told you last time she's really good at action scenes. Yu Yu, come watch!"

Yu Yu went over and Shen Qingqing played it for her again.

"It is pretty good..."

"Qingqing..."

Guo Yuyang suddenly felt aggrieved,

"After you left, I went to look for you. I was so heartbroken when I couldn't find you..."

"I know."

Shen Qingqing was not surprised at all by this.

"You even went to the nightclub my friend owns to drink, and brought three little internet celebs along, then took all three of them to a hotel and booked a room for three days straight. Impressive, all three of them."

Guo Yuyang's expression changed. He wanted to explain but Shen Qingqing didn't care at all. She turned to ask the director,

"With him injured like this, can he still act?"

The director nodded. Shen Qingqing clapped again,

"That's great! Wei Wei, you don't have to be annoyed looking at him every day!"

Guo Yuyang was dumbfounded. So he had been foolishly infatuated!

"You! If I don't act, Ruiqi will withdraw funding..."

Yu Yu, who was on the side, started clapping to interrupt him, "Is Ruiqi going bankrupt? What kind of trash spokesperson did they hire? The Asia Pacific market has so many problems but they don't manage it at all. Is Tiancheng Group's new CEO Wei Jiesen blind? Then withdraw. Just wait for your downfall!"

"No withdrawal! Ruiqi will follow the group's arrangements!"

Tim suddenly interrupted and changed his arrogant attitude to become polite.

Yu Yu turned to look at Qin Wei. She had just unwrapped her lollipop and was now eating it.

Yu Yu asked her, "I said such outrageous things yet Senior Sister doesn't seem surprised at all?"

Qin Wei glanced at her, "With Shen Qingqing saying her family is lowly commoners in front of you, nothing you say surprises me."
