As soon as Qu Leqi heard it, she completely lost it, "Fine! Director, you want her, donāt you? Iāve been in this business for so long and Iāve put up with so much from my seniors, but Iāve endured all that! Whatās happening today? Letting some damn stand-in get on top of me? If I swallow this insult, whatās the point of me, Qu Leqi, even being in this entertainment industry? Iām not doing this movie anymore! Find whoever you want to replace me!"
Everyoneās eyes widened.
This...
was escalating rather quickly...
To say she would quit acting and then actually do it!
Actually, thinking back, they realized that Heather had only vaguely mentioned a few sentences, and Qu Leqi immediately exploded in rage.
One couldnāt help but wonder whether Qu Leqi was too easily provoked, or was Heather just too powerful?
"Hey! Leqi! Leqi, donāt go! We can talk this out! Leqiā" The director, no longer caring about Heather, hurriedly chased after Qu Leqi, leaving the rest of the crew looking at each other, dumbstruck by this annual blockbuster drama, unsure of how to react.
Su Jin slowly propped her chin up, swallowed, and stealthily walked next to Heather, giving her a thumbs up and saying in shock, "Sister... youāre really something..."
The others also looked at her with admiration, "Weāve always been bullied by Qu Leqi, driving us crazy, but this is the first time someoneās managed to make her flip out with just a few words... Sister Weiwei, you are... just too awesome."
For a moment, nobody knew quite how to describe their feelings.
Heather chuckled helplessly, "How was I to know she had such a low tolerance?"
If she had known the fight would be this weak, she would have ignored her.
If she canāt take it, then why bother provoking her?
Heather poured herself a cup of water and sat down to rest.
Su Jin then quickly gathered around her, and Xiao Wan, realizing she couldnāt be of much help with Qu Leqiās situation, also followed Su Jin over.
They all sat around Heather as if they were observing some strange creature.
After taking a sip of water, she asked, "Why are you all looking at me like this? Havenāt you seen this kind of scene before?"
They all shook their heads like rattles: "Of course not! Itās too brutal! How would we ever have seen this before!"
"Honestly... Heather, I didnāt like you before, but... the enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
She was helpless.
It seemed Qu Leqi had made quite a few enemies usually, and now that she was in trouble, everyone was eager to approve and had no inclination to pity her.
"But Sister Weiwei, arenāt you really afraid? It seems like Mr. Nian and Qu Leqi have some sort of relationship... if she complains to him..."
"Why worry? Didnāt Sister Weiwei justā"
"I donāt know whether they have a relationship or not, but I must clarify, we truly have no such relationship," she said, "Is there a need for her to go and complain? She quit acting, and sooner or later, he will hear about it tonight. Iām not afraid because I have a clear conscience; I didnāt start this, and I havenāt done anything wrong. Should I say āthank youā when someone curses me, without even retorting?"
"Pff... youāre right! But... Mr. Nian wonāt think like that..."
"I donāt care how Nian Shen thinks. Whatever he decides, Iāll accept it. The worst-case scenario is that I pack up and leave, whatās there to be afraid of," she said nonchalantly, "But if I have to apologize, thatās impossible. I wonāt admit to something I didnāt do wrong, not even if put through the Ten Great Tortures of the Qing Dynasty."
