Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 1780

1780 Filming a Variety Show (1)
Qi Zhenbai snorted expressionlessly.

That night, it took Chi Shuyan a lot of effort to coax the man until his expression softened. Unfortunately, as long as she mentioned the variety show, he would immediately be annoyed.

They were at an impasse. Early the next morning, as if afraid that Chi Shuyan would go back on her word, Song Yanru immediately sent her the time, venue, and other details. She also gave Chi Shuyan a very grateful phone call early in the morning. Her words were filled with gratitude, but she didn’t give Chi Shuyan any room to refuse.

Although Chi Shuyan had agreed to Song Yanru’s request to help her last night, being willing and being forced were two different things. After hanging up, the smile on her face disappeared completely.

She wasn’t in the mood to eat the breakfast cooked by Chef Li in the morning. Qi Zhenbai had just come downstairs. Seeing his wife eating breakfast absent-mindedly, he thought that his strong objection last night had displeased her.

!!
In any other situation, Qi Zhenbai’s heart would have softened right away when he saw his wife’s face, but when he thought of how his wife would be risking her life for another woman, how could he be so broad-minded as to agree?

In the end, Qi Zhenbai’s cold and hard heart was defeated by his wife’s unhappy face. He sighed and said, “If you really want to go, go!”

“What?” Chi Shuyan didn’t come back to her senses at all, nor did she get what the man was referring to.

Qi Zhenbai put down his chopsticks and his cold face softened a lot. He repeated gently, “If you really want to go, go, but I’ll go with you!”

Only then did Chi Shuyan realize what the man meant. She immediately stared at him with wide eyes. Soon, she came back to her senses and shook her head in refusal. “No need, I’ll…” Go alone.

Before she could finish speaking, the man’s expression, which had just eased up, darkened again. Chi Shuyan could only swallow the rest of her words and nod in agreement.

It was a nice thought, but it was impossible for Qi Zhenbai to take five days out of his schedule to go with his wife to the variety show; there was too much to do in the company. He did think of getting Father Qi to help, but Father Qi had never handled matters before, and he wouldn’t know where to start.

In addition, there were a few important meeting collaborations that would be held during that period.

In the end, it was Chi Shuyan who found out about Qi Zhenbai’s situation, and she immediately looked for Qi Hao in order to reassure Qi Zhenbai.

Qi Zhenbai didn’t think Qi Hao was very reliable. Moreover, even if he were, Qi Zhenbai still wasn’t at ease handing his wife and child over to another man.

In the end, Chi Shuyan convinced him and said that she would just be away for several days, and nothing would happen. Moreover, Song Yanru might be thinking too much. She had been traumatized by the incident at Dashan Village, so she might be thinking too much. Seeing that the man was still worried, Chi Shuyan simply said that she would video call him every night. If anything really happened, she would let him know immediately.

Only then did the man reluctantly agree to let her go to the variety show.

To be honest, compared with letting his wife go to that variety show recording, he wanted to shut it down even more. In the end, under his wife’s persuasion, Qi Zhenbai did nothing.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day Song Yanru would begin filming the variety show. Ever since Qi Hao found out that he would be going with his sister-in-law to a variety show, he was very excited. Of course, not only was Qi Hao excited about the variety show, he was also excited about being with his sister-in-law.

Chi Shuyan went as Song Yanru’s assistant. At 8am that morning, she and Qi Hao waited at a road intersection for Song Yanru’s van.

There weren’t many people in the van, only Song Yanru and her manager.

This was the first time Chi Shuyan had met Song Yanru’s manager. Her manager was called He Liuqing. Song Yanru called her Sister He.

Compared with Song Yanru’s enthusiasm, her manager was colder. She didn’t understand why Yanru had to take these two freeloaders with her when she was going to film a variety show.

He Liuqing was quite annoyed. Looking at these two very good-looking people, He Liuqing just thought that they were newcomers who wanted to enter the industry by taking a shortcut; they probably wanted to ride on empty popularity. The more He Liuqing thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and her eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.

“Sister He, these two are my good friends. I specially invited them!” Song Yanru sensed her manager’s attitude and hurriedly explained. She quickly greeted Chi Shuyan warmly. Her gaze fell on the young man next to Master Chi, and she paused. “This is?”

Chi Shuyan’s impression of Song Yanru had changed a lot because of her phone call a few days ago. Seeing her manager’s attitude, Chi Shuyan’s face was also a bit cold now. She introduced Qi Hao simply to Song Yanru. “He’s my cousin. He was a bit worried about me, so he came with me!”

“Oh, I see!” Song Yanru’s face was still cordial as she immediately invited the two of them to get into the van. However, Chi Shuyan frowned slightly at the other party’s gaze on Qi Hao; it was as if Song Yanru didn’t like her bringing someone with her.

Qi Hao was as carefree as ever and didn’t notice the abnormality in Song Yanru’s attitude. Instead, he had a good impression of this very famous film empress. He had watched a lot of her movies before, and her acting skills and looks were very good. He made up his mind to ask for her autograph in the next few days. When the time came, he would show it off to his friends.

Qi Hao was a straightforward person. Not long after getting into the car, he immediately tactfully asked Song Yanru if she could give him an autograph. He Liuqing was even more displeased, and it showed on her face. Song Yanru was a bit embarrassed. Afraid that she would offend Master Chi, she hurriedly smoothed things over and said that an autograph wasn’t a problem. When she was free later, he could have as many autographs as he wanted.

It was also because of this that Qi Hao’s favorable impression of Song Yanru rose. He felt that this was indeed what a film empress was like; she was down-to-earth and didn’t put on airs. She was too good a person. Qi Hao even turned his head and whispered to his sister-in-law, “Sister-in-law, when did you get to know this Film Empress Song? Her temper is too good. As expected of one of my idols!”
