Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband - Chapter 2425

2425 Twins
“She was my mommy first!”

“Xiao Bao is right.”

Xinyue gave each of them a flick on their foreheads. “Yes, yes, yes. It’s amazing to have a mommy!”

“Young Master, can we eat now?” the butler walked over and asked.

“Let’s eat.” Su Zhuoqian put his arm around Qiao Weiyang’s waist and stood up. He could not be bothered with the three of them.

Xinyue smelled hotpot and sniffed. “Wow, it’s hotpot! In order to look good on camera, I haven’t eaten hotpot in a long time!”

She washed her hands and moved to the table. She drooled when she saw the tender beef slices and tripe.

Su Zhuoqian served some to Qiao Weiyang and picked up a piece for Xinyue.

After eating two pieces, Xinyue put down her chopsticks.

Xiao Bao looked at her. “Why aren’t you eating anymore, Aunt?”

“I… have to maintain my weight, and I’m afraid I’ll get pimples tomorrow. Also, if I eat too much meat, I’ll easily get bloated in the morning.”

Xiao Bao said, “Adults are so troublesome.”

Xinyue shrugged. “You have to be responsible for your work.”

Qiao Weiyang smiled and said, “Have another two pieces.”

“Sigh, no, no.” Xin Yue waved her hand.

“This tea is for you. It’s good for your skin.” Qiao Weiyang handed her a box of homemade tea. “It’s effective in reducing pimples and eliminating bloating.”

“Really?” Xinyue didn’t believe it at first, but when she looked at Qiao Weiyang’s skin and thought about her usual state, she grew to believe it.

Seeing that Qiao Weiyang was not particularly averse to food, she picked up her chopsticks again and ate a few more mouthfuls. However, the fear eventually made her put down the chopsticks.

Before going to bed that night, she made a cup of tea to drink.

The next day, the first thing she did when she woke up was to check her weight. Wow, it was the same as yesterday.

She looked at herself in the mirror. Her skin condition was really not affected much.

She finally believed it for real!

…

It was almost time for the finals of I Am An Actor.

Qiao Weiyang accompanied Xinyue over to prepare.

“I heard that the audience had a lot of opinions about the scripts prepared by the production team previously. This time, they specially invited an author who writes novels to work with a professional screenwriter to change the scripts we’re going to act in this time. They asked the author to come up with something that’ll attract more young audience members,” Xinyue said to Qiao Weiyang. “I don’t expect much. I just hope the scripts are good.”

“You came out as the top contender even with such a bad script. There shouldn’t be a problem this time.”

Qiao Weiyang and Xin Yue walked in and heard the director explain the rules this time. “In the last episode, there’ll be four different scripts. Every time three people go on stage, we guarantee that each person can act three times. According to all their performances, the audience will vote and the judges’ scores will determine the winner. Does everyone understand?”

“Understood.”

“Next, I’ll have to trouble everyone to prepare according to the scripts given by the screenwriter.”

Zhang Xi said, “Why don’t we add another segment?”

“Xi Xi, do you have any good suggestions?”

“When the time comes, why don’t everyone contact a guest they know in the industry and ask them for help? What do you think?”

Actually, the production team had thought of this before.

But in the end, they did not adopt it.

The main reason was that the actors and actresses here had completely different starting points. The seniors that they knew in the industry were not on the same level at all. If the production team adopted this segment, they would be putting a small artiste like Xinyue on the spot.
In that case, it was very unfair.

However, since Zhang Xi had said so, the director could not reject her directly.

Xinyue agreed immediately. “Okay, I’m fine with it! It’s completely okay!”

Tian Ke and Li Qizhi were more experienced than Xinyue. Seeing that Xinyue said that there was no problem, they also expressed that they were fine with it.

Zhang Xi glanced at Xinyue. After Xinyue wore the Jaeger-LeCoultre watch that night, she investigated Xin Yue’s identity. She wanted to find out what was going on and what resources were behind her.

However, after digging around, she realized that Xinyue really did not have much of a background. The two dramas she had filmed previously had yet to be broadcasted, and she had yet to get any good resources. After filming Am An Actor, she just went home and was idle.

Therefore, Zhang Xi must have misjudged the watch that night.

That was why Zhang Xi took the initiative to propose this new segment.

As long as someone invited a good guest actor, the audience would be more interested in them and become more biased when voting. There was no doubt about that.

This was Zhang Xi’s greatest advantage.

Seeing that no one had any problems, the director smiled and said, “In that case, let’s go make the arrangements. As for the mystery guests…”

“I think it’s better to keep the mystery guests for the final reveal. There’s no need to reveal them early. If we lose that sense of mystery, there won’t be much of a point, right?”

Zhang Xi was the leader of this show. Since she had said so, the director had no choice but to agree and discuss it with the production team.

After the director left, Zhang Xi smiled and asked, “Xinyue, do you have any artistes you like? I can help you invite them.”

“No need. I can invite them myself.”

“Could it be that you despise my help and will turn to Ms. Qiao for help instead?” Zhang Xi asked.

Everyone looked at Xinyue and knew that she had a good relationship with Qiao Weiyang. However, if she got Qiao Weiyang’s help to invite someone over, wouldn’t it be too unfair to the others?

Xinyue immediately said, “I already said that I’ll be the one inviting the guest actor, so I definitely won’t ask anyone else for help. Otherwise, what’s the point of this segment? Don’t worry, if I borrow someone else’s power, I’ll kick myself out.”

She looked very cute when she swore angrily, but she was also very serious.

Since she had already said so, Zhang Xi couldn’t push her too hard. She smiled and said, “I was just joking. You don’t have to take it so seriously. It’s fine even if Ms. Qiao helps you.”

Her words were sarcastic and disgusting, forcing Xinyue to not be able to find someone to help her invite a guest. In the future, if Xin Yue managed to invite a good guest, she could still say that she had gotten Qiao Weiyang’s help.

Xinyue was innocent and could not win against her. She simply stopped talking and just smiled.

It was not convenient for the staff to speak up for her. Zhang Xi stood up and said, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go eat.”

In the past, Qiao Weiyang would retort to Zhang Xi when she mocked Xinyue. Now that she had seen it happen for a long time, she understood more and more why Zhang Xi was no longer popular.

Seeing that Xinyue did not care, she did not argue either. Such a person was really not worth it.

Tao Huan ran to Qiao Weiyang’s side and said, “Sister Weiyang, the production team said that there’s a surprise guest they want you to meet.”

“A surprise guest?” Qiao Weiyang stood up and followed Tao Huan.

“That person is with the production team over there,” Tao Huan said. “They said they want you to go over alone.”
