Chapter 331
Shen's Father was really afraid that Shen Qingqing would make trouble, so he sincerely invited Youyou to come home and play with her. Youyou came and stayed in another bedroom with Shen Qingqing. Shen Qingqing's wish to sleep with Qin Wei was shattered.
Before going to bed at night, Li Yao sent her a message saying that he had a business event coming up in a few days and asked her to prepare.
Qin Wei replied with an "Okay," and then opened the news app. The event that Li Yao had just mentioned was gradually rising in popularity on the entertainment rankings.
There was an uproar of boycotting and scolding online.
【If someone like this can still get business deals, then this circle is really rotten】
【I don't get it, what did QW do? I still don't understand this gossip (I'm not a fan or anti, I just know her, I have no idea what happened)】
【Unwilling to apologize to the public, no sense of social responsibility】
【QW is blacklisted for life】
【Why apologize? What's the matter?】
【Don't know, but everyone is boycotting, so boycotting must be right】
【She hit someone, acted arrogantly, got into an accident】
【Oh, wasn't that self-defense? I remember there was also Su Yang, right?】
【Don't mention your dad or I'll kill you! We're talking about QW here, why bring up Su Yang? Are you sick? Take Su Yang away, this has nothing to do with Su Yang】
【I really went from fan to anti-fan, I advise Qin Wei to come out and apologize, you're going against the whole country!】
【You went from fan to anti-fan? First clear your record of bashing her since a year ago! Besides, not everyone is included. 】
【I'm not included either...】
【Groundless... After such a long time, among those bashing her there are still people who don't even know which one Qin Wei is, "blacklisted for life" but don't even know what she looks like, hilarious】
...
After Qin Wei took a look at the news and comments related to herself, she knew the event Li Yao mentioned could not happen.
Sure enough, half an hour later Li Yao called and said the show had made a temporary adjustment and the notice was cancelled.
Li Yao felt very bad. Recently he had spent most of his time dealing with negative news online and contacting new jobs. He had also sued a batch of marketing accounts and anti-fans, partly because lawsuits take time, and also because new anti-fans and marketing accounts wanting to take advantage of her popularity emerge every day, so they kept steering the narrative.
Qin Wei comforted him in turn:
"You still have several artists to worry about. Just don't worry about me, reputation to me is metaphysics, and we've already had the experience of coming back from rock bottom once, so no fear of doing it a second time! Enduring humiliation is what I'm best at. Consider these days as time off for me."
Li Yao replied:
"I have no objection to you resting here, but to be honest, Director Xu does have some opinions. Recently the company hasn't gotten any returns from you, but the salaries of your team and others still have to be paid...
The company hopes that you won't be too aloof either. Take on some deals with small businesses too..."
Qin Wei did not object to this, but she also had her own requirements:
"Quality must fully meet standards, no shady history, decent word of mouth, accurate positioning, high match. Then it's fine."
There was silence on the phone.
At this time, those looking for Qin Wei to collaborate belonged to high-risk low-reward deals. Their purpose was very clear, just wanting to take advantage of the hype and fleece some fans.
After all, her purchasing power was highly valued in the industry. The high-end brands she still collaborated with were basically unaffected. No matter how the anti-fans online yelled and boycotted, it was useless. Brands run businesses with their own considerations, and those who couldn't afford the products and frantically boycotted were simply not their target customers.
After a while, Li Yao laughed:
"Alright, forget it. Your integrity has never changed. You already went through so much misery last time and still wouldn't compromise, so you definitely won't this time either. Okay, you rest first. I'll discuss more with Director Xu. No matter what, I stand by you."
Qin Wei felt a warmth in her heart. Li Yao's business capabilities were actually mediocre, but he was a really gentle person. No matter what, he had never, like other agents, pursued interests unscrupulously.
...
Shen Qingqing's bed was very soft and comfortable. Qin Wei finally got a good night's sleep. She woke up early the next day to see Shen Qingqing in her pajamas making breakfast in the kitchen.
That's right, the third floor also had a kitchen, with both an open Western-style kitchen and a separate Chinese kitchen.
"You're up!"
Knowing she had the habit of getting up early, Shen Qingqing said,
"Go downstairs to the yard and run in the morning yourself. You don't have to dress too formally. My parents aren't up yet. There are no paparazzi taking secret photos here, don't worry."
"I won't run today, too tired."
Qin Wei walked into her kitchen and turned on the coffee machine herself, then casually asked Shen Qingqing,
"You can still make your own breakfast!"
Shen Qingqing waved her hand:
"I don't usually do it. Isn't it because you came? Later when my parents get up, you can take it downstairs and we'll eat together. I'll just say you made it. When they hear it they'll definitely look at you differently and accept you!"
Qin Wei carefully savored her words:
"I feel like if I really do that, the tone will be off, right?
I'm just staying at your house temporarily, not to the point of needing your parents to accept me!"
... After getting up, the three of them went downstairs together for breakfast. Shen Qingqing's parents also got up unusually early today. After simple greetings, the few sat down to eat breakfast together. No one spoke at first, and the atmosphere was quite heavy.
After struggling internally for a long time, Shen's Father finally asked:
"Xiao Qin, have you finished shooting that drama?"
Xiao Qin??
Xiao Qin: "Yeah, wrapped up..."
Shen's Father: "Xiao Qin, your parents..."
Youyou interrupted his question: "Uncle Shen? Wake up..."
Obviously the two families were close, and Youyou spoke and joked with Shen Qingqing's parents very naturally.
Shen's Father also realized his question went a bit too far.
Fortunately, Youyou started chatting with him, and the atmosphere gradually improved.
...
After breakfast, Qin Wei was going to visit Qiao Sixiao. She still hadn't replied to the message sent last night, and Li Liang had already returned, so her assistant should have returned too.
But she didn't reply to the message, and it was unknown how she was doing now.
After discussing with Shen Qingqing and Youyou, Qin Wei called Xiao Wang, wanting to ask which hospital Qiao Sixiao was staying at, but Xiao Wang was in a difficult position and kept beating around the bush, unwilling to say.
She clearly knew Qin Wei and Teacher Qiao were very good friends, but still wouldn't say. So there was only one possibility - the company wouldn't let her say.
Then He Hong was even less likely to say anything.
It wasn't good to put her in a difficult position, so Qin Wei could only give up pressuring her.
"The best hospital in the capital, receiving the best treatment. Shen Qingqing, you're the smart one, help me think of it?"
Shen Qingqing still accepted this praise:
"Let's go. There are a total of 20 top private hospitals in the city. Among them 5 have orthopedics departments. I know one of the board directors of these 5 orthopedic hospitals. I asked around through connections and there's no record of her being hospitalized there. So that leaves 4."
Shen Qingqing opened the map on her phone and pointed to the 4 points on the map for Qin Wei to see.
"We can go check them one by one to find out."
But Qin Wei's finger pressed on the hospital in the east:
"Let's go to this one first."
Of the two closest to Cloud Jade One where Qiao Sixiao lived, she pointed to the one that was quieter and had less convenient transportation, with the nearest bus stop and rail transit entrance over 5 minutes' walk away.
So there were relatively fewer people, suitable for recuperation.
"Okay."
Youyou took a look at the hospital name and directly called to inquire.
Indeed, that was it.
