Chapter 762: You Helped Me Again
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
From the message An Nuo sent to Murong Qiao last night, she was still quite
nervous.
However, when Murong Qiao saw her on set, she realized that her worries were completely unnecessary. An Nuo, who had just come out of filming, smiled and looked much more relaxed.
“Do you still remember our previous agreement? Tomorrow is Sunday.” Murong Qiao and An Nuo confirmed the time for the two of them to return to the Murong Residence.
Things are different now.
The two of them were no longer students at Hui University. Now that they had their own things to do, they needed to be especially sure of the time.
Of course, Murong Qiao was mainly worried that An Nuo would be too stressed out about it. But she looked quite calm when she saw her now, so she relaxed.
Because Xu Xiuzhu was present, An Nuo only nodded and didn’t say anything.
“I remember. I’ll look for you tomorrow.” An Nuo naturally remembered.
She had specially typed in the cell phone memo last night to remind herself of such an important matter, afraid that she would forget it.
This was because the manager had also freed up some time on her schedule, so
An Nuo was not worried about this.
Murong Qiao casually chatted about something else when she suddenly felt the phone in her pocket vibrate.
She took it out and took a look. She realized that it was a message from Huo Yichen. The other party would come to the film base to pick her up later.
However, what surprised Murong Qiao was the time displayed on the phone screen. It was only three in the afternoon, and this kind of timing was even earlier than usual.
Murong Qiao didn’t doubt him. Since it was a message from Huo Yichen, there was naturally a reason for it. Hence, she only replied indifferently and prepared to say goodbye to An Nuo.
“I still have scenes to film here, so I won’t send you off this time,” An Nuo said as she looked outside.
Xu Xiuzhu sat at the side and saw that the two of them were about to leave, so he stood up and pointed in the direction of the director. “You should know the way here. I still have something to tell the director, so I can only say goodbye too.”
In any case, they were all familiar with each other. Even Xu Xiuzhu was more relaxed when facing Murong Qiao than the employees who were reserved towards their boss. Therefore, he didn’t have so many scruples when he spoke.
“Don’t worry about it, go ahead.” Murong Qiao didn’t mind. Moreover, she had indeed remembered the way here.
When the three of them walked out of the dressing room, it was already the hottest time of the entire afternoon. The sun hung high in the sky, emitting a roasting temperature.
In fact, if one looked up slightly, they would feel a sense of heatstroke from the dazzling sunlight.
The production team seemed to be still busy and had no intention of taking a lunch break. Seeing this, Murong Qiao quietly avoided the staff and prepared to leave.
Because she was someone Xu Xiuzhu had brought in not long ago, the security officer at the door still had an impression of Murong Qiao. This time, when he saw her preparing to leave, he didn’t stop her. Instead, he greeted her respectfully.
The production team’s location was hidden in a deep alley. Murong Qiao walked out the way she came and turned a corner. When she circled around to the open venue outside, she saw a familiar figure.
The other party stood under the sun and let the sun shine on her. At the same time, there seemed to be a man standing beside her, saying something very sincerely. From Murong Qiao’s angle, she seemed to vaguely sense the other party’s resistance.
“Why are you still here?” Murong Qiao walked over and tilted the umbrella that An Nuo had sponsored before she left, offering half to the other party.
Sensing the sudden shadow above her head, Kelly turned around and saw her. The person she couldn’t find just now had suddenly appeared in front of her.
She immediately smiled and greeted Murong Qiao happily.
“I’m lost.” Kelly calmly described her current situation.
“I wanted to treat you to a drink just now, but when I turned around, I realized that you had disappeared. I don’t know where you went.”
She was not familiar with the terrain here, and there was a language barrier, so after circling around a few times, she could only stop here in vain.
Kelly’s unique white skin made her cheeks look a little rosy. After all, she had stood under the sun for almost half an hour. She was still in high spirits and was a little energetic.
Fortunately, the umbrella An Nuo gave her was big enough for Kelly and Murong Qiao to stand side by side in the shadows.
It was only because Murong Qiao appeared at the side that Kelly was able to catch her breath and escape from the person in front of her.
Murong Qiao sized up the man standing in front of Kelly. He looked like he was staring at Kelly with shining eyes, showing his intentions without moving his gaze.
“Miss, I really think you have the potential to be a celebrity. Why don’t you consider our company?”
The other party seemed to be a talent scout. “Our company offers great treatment and benefits. Even the trainees are provided with food and accommodation. Every month, we even—”
Murong Qiao estimated that she was a little late because the other party had already spoken these words skillfully in English. It seemed that he was the kind of person who didn’t give up.
“I said I don’t like being a celebrity. Please stop pestering me.” Kelly shook her head helplessly. She didn’t know how many times she had rejected the man in front of her.
With her looks, if she wanted to become a celebrity, she could have asked her father to send her into the entertainment industry when she was young. Why would she wait until now to be discovered?
However, some scouts were shameless creatures. Even after being rejected by the other party, they still insisted on their own ideas and persuasion. Not to mention, Kelly’s appearance and figure were very good. She could even contend with some celebrities now, which aroused this person’s desire for money. Murong Qiao, who was standing at the side, understood the situation of the two in less than a minute.
“Young Miss, are you really not going to consider it—” That person was still unwilling to give up.
This time, Murong Qiao stood at the side and spoke. “Since she doesn’t have such plans, don’t waste your breath. Don’t waste each other’s time.”
The scout was about to say something when he was interrupted by Murong Qiao. He looked away from Kelly unhappily, wanting to see who was so ungrateful to come to his side and say that.
In the end, his gaze landed on Murong Qiao’s familiar face. His first reaction was that the other party was a little good-looking and indeed had the talent to be a celebrity. With a second look, he recognized the person who spoke and immediately changed his decision. He waved his hand and left.
There were not many people in the entertainment industry who didn’t know who Murong Qiao was.
The moment he saw the other party, the scout subconsciously thought that the other party had taken a fancy to the girl in front of him, so he beat a retreat and left.
Kelly couldn’t understand why Murong Qiao’s words made the other party leave directly and stop pestering her.
However, after seeing that the person was far away and really didn’t intend to say anything else to her, Kelly finally heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at Murong Qiao beside her gratefully.
“You’ve helped me again,” her amused voice said.
This time, Kelly couldn’t let go of the rare opportunity for the two of them to meet. She even felt that this was probably fate that brought them together. She pulled her to the supermarket to buy a bottle of iced water and stuffed it into Murong Qiao’s hand.
Although it was a little unpleasant, Kelly was sure that she must have had some good luck to meet Murong Qiao today..
