Priceless Baby's Super Daddy - Chapter 707

Chapter 707: Just The Perfect Opportunity To Try Something Else

He had made this movie in half a year and for the purpose to win this year’s Golden Goose Award. He was very confident in his work and he was also grateful to all the actors who had participated in it.

One of the most noteworthy actors was Jing Xi. She had given an outstanding performance in the movie and showed no signs of unsureness or pretentiousness that a newcomer actor would usually show. It could be said that her performance had greatly enriched the film.

In all fairness, her acting skills were much better than Huang Yanran.

To celebrate the success of “Root of Evil,” Director Peng Sicheng treated everyone to a feast. He had something in mind, so he went to look for Jing Xi to talk to her privately.

Xu Xiyan did not know why the director was looking for her. “Director Peng, is something the matter?”

“Mm-hmm.” Peng Sicheng was holding a cigarette between his fingers. He took a puff, then exhaled out white smoke. “It’s nothing important. I heard that you have a very good relationship with Qi Liya, right?”

“Yeah!” Xu Xiyan nodded. She was wondering why Peng Sicheng was asking about Qi Liya?

They had broken up for many years, and it hadn’t been easy for Qi Liya to finally find her true love. Was he still not willing to let her go?

Peng Sicheng looked helpless as he said, “Can you help ask her out for me? I need to talk to her.”

Back then when Huang Guoqiang got himself into trouble, Peng Sicheng had gone to look for Qi Liya that evening. He didn’t know who had knocked him unconscious that time, otherwise, he would definitely still have the chance to redeem Qi Liya.

Now, it was no longer easy for Peng Sicheng to meet up with Qi Liya. She had already moved out of her apartment, and he didn’t know where she had moved to.

“If you have something for her, you can just tell me directly. I’ll inform her on your behalf.”

Between the two directors, Xu Xiyan would naturally stand at Huang Guoqiang and Qi Liya’s side.

Since Qi Liya’s relationship with him was already in the past and she had chosen to stay with Huang Guoqiang and even moved away to hide from him, Xu Xiyan could not help Peng Sicheng with anything that would separate the couple.

Peng Sicheng asked, “Do you know where she lives? Can you tell me her address?”

Qi Liya had told her before to ignore Peng Sicheng if he tried to ask anything about her and never reveal her whereabouts and place of residence.

Xu Xiyan cocked her head as she smiled at him. “Oh, I’m so sorry, Director Peng. I have no idea where Sister Qi is living now. How about the next time I see her, I’ll ask her on your behalf?”

“Forget it. Please help tell her that the day after tomorrow is my birthday and I’ll be waiting for her at the usual place at 7 o’clock in the evening. I’ll stay there until I see her.”

“Oh! Happy birthday in advance, Director Peng! I’ll pass your message to her,” Xu Xiyan promised him, but she was only responsible for conveying his message. There was no guarantee that Qi Liya would be there!

Peng Sicheng’s birthday also happened to be the first day of shooting of the movie “Those Beautiful Bygone Days.”

As the boss of Jinxi Studio, Xu Xiyan was obliged to attend the first-day blessing ceremony.

However, the ceremony was private and they had not announced it to the public or media; it was a very simple ceremony anyway. Only the main creative staff and several main actors were invited to the studios to hold the small ceremony.

After the ceremony, the makeup artist began to put on make-up for Ma Haodong and Qi Liya in preparation for a costume test photoshoot.

Xu Xiyan accompanied Qi Liya, watching the makeup artist put make-up on her. She laughed, “Sister Qi, I hope the both of you great gods would not mind our little temple here.”

Qi Liya couldn’t move her head as she had to sit still, so she glanced at Xu Xiyan sideways and said, “What are you talking about? I like this movie very much and this role is something I’ve never tried before. You know I’ve been acting in historical palace dramas every day and I’ve had enough of it. This movie was just the perfect opportunity for me to try something else.”
