Volume 2 Chapter 1309: He Is Back
"Huh?" Qiao Man turned to look at Gu Ziming, who had already turned to look at the car window.
Qiao Man looked at him. His side face looked sad, and his eyes showed endless loneliness.
When she first met Gu Ziming, she felt that this man had many things hidden in his heart. Later I found out that he had a lot of tidbits and had many women, but I didn't believe that he was the kind of man who loved to play romantically.
"What are you looking at!" Gu Ziming said again, and Qiao Man said "Ah" before she realized that Gu Ziming could see herself through the dark car window in front of her.
Being caught by him, she lowered her head and blushed in embarrassment.
The two of them rarely sit together and chat. More often, Gu Ziming thinks of her and asks his assistant to pick her up and take her to the hotel.
Then everything happened naturally, and Qiao Man wouldn't say anything more.
Gu Ziming did not expect this relationship to last for such a long time, and neither did Qiao Man. She also did not expect that she and Gu Ziming would get married.
It’s still this hotel, this suite, or this bed. The two of them are entangled together. In the middle of the night, they only have eyes for each other.
Only in this situation did Qiao Man feel that Gu Ziming belonged to her.
The next morning, Gu Ziming left first because he had something to do. As he was leaving, he remembered something, "When will you be free?"
Qiao Man didn't think much, took over Gu Ziming's words and said, "I'll be free after the filming today!"
"Okay!" After Qiao Man finished speaking, she heard Gu Ziming's words, "I'll take you back to the Gu family's old house later!"
Before Qiao Man could answer, Gu Ziming had already left the room.
Looking back at our old home? Qiao Man thought about what Gu Ziming meant, was it because of their marriage?
Although Gu Ziming took her to get the certificate, for some reason, Qiao Man felt very uneasy and felt that the relationship would end at any time.
Therefore, she never regarded herself as his wife.
She thought it would be better to get a contract, so that one day, she would not be so sad.
Not long after Gu Ziming left, Qiao Man also got up. She recently had a role in the crew of "The Beloved Concubine".
When arriving at the set, Qiao Man received a call from her sister.
Qiao Man knew that her sister called her to ask about something, so she didn't answer the call.
After Qiao Man hung up the phone, her sister sent another text message. Qiao Man glanced at it and was stunned by the content.
"Xiaoman, he's back!"
My sister didn't say who "he" was, but Qiao Man knew.
She heard the director in front saying to start preparing for filming, and put her mobile phone in her pocket.
Today is the rivalry between Qiao Man and Cao Yu. Cao Yu is famous not only because she is beautiful and coaxes people, and has a good agent, but also because of her good acting skills.
In this scene, Concubine Shen, played by Qiao Man, slaps Cao Yu, the beloved concubine.
The reason is that Concubine Shen doesn't like Cao Yu.
This is how the fight in the harem is, whoever comes out becomes a thorn in others' eyes.
Cao Yu had gotten this role before. She didn't feel much about the sadistic part of being slapped, but after knowing that the person who hit her was Qiao Man, she couldn't bear it.
What right does Qiao Man have to hit her again?
For this matter, she went to the director specifically, but the director said that the script was written this way and could not be changed.
If it were changed, the character played by Cao Yu would not be fleshed out enough, and the impact on the plot would also be reduced.
Cao Yu understood what the director meant, and when she really had to shoot this scene today, she started to hate it again.
"Let's act first." The manager behind him noticed Cao Yu's irritability and said quietly.
Cao Yu mocked, "You are not the one being beaten, so stop making sarcastic remarks here."
"Qiao Man, who is she? How qualified is she to hit me!"
"Does she dare to fight?" the manager said calmly, "The director said that this scene requires your cooperation and is not a real fight."
Cao Yu knew this, but even so, she still felt unhappy.
"But if it was a real fight, wouldn't you think it would be more interesting?" the agent said slowly, looking at Cao Yu as she spoke.
Cao Yu saw cunning and insidiousness in the agent's eyes, and she was so smart that she immediately understood the meaning of these words.
The director said it was a fake beating, but what would happen if Qiao Man really hit her?
She was originally an actress. If Qiao Man really hit her, the director would not let her go, and her fans would not be able to spare Qiao Man either.
Cao Yu's mood suddenly improved.
"Although I am not willing to be slapped, I am willing to receive this slap if it can force Qiao Man out of the entertainment industry."
She and her agent teamed up and tried their best to deal with Qiao Man.
Qiao Man has fallen from her high position, but she is still active in this circle.
This made Cao Yu unhappy.
"Let's start!" The director who was telling Qiao Man shouted to Cao Yu.
Cao Yu went over and she quickly got into the mood in front of Qiao Man.
Qiao Man also let herself become Concubine Shen who became arrogant because she had a child, "I heard that the emperor slept with you last night."
Concubine Shen, played by Qiao Man, has long been displeased with Cao Yu. When she saw Cao Yu lowering his head and looking aggrieved, she became even more angry.
These days, from the moment she entered the palace, the emperor had a soft spot for her, while the other concubines, including Concubine Shen, hated her.
Concubine Shen saw Xu Meiren played by Cao Yu in front of her again. Looking at her pitiful appearance, Concubine Shen raised her hand and hit her hard.
Slapping scenes usually involve real beatings.
But Cao Yu is a popular actress, and her proposal to change the script to the director was not approved, so the director naturally gave her face and asked Qiao Man to show off.
As agreed, Qiao Man slapped Cao Yu's face away from him.
Who knows, Qiao Man's hand passed over and Cao Yu was hit in the face.
"You!" Cao Yu deliberately didn't hide. When Qiao Man hit her, she became angry and aggrieved again.
"Qiao Man, we agreed to fake a beating, why did you hit me!"
Cao Yu started to cry, and her tears fell one by one.
Because Qiao Man's slap made Cao Yu cry, the director had to suspend filming.
"What's going on with you guys?" the director asked angrily. How could it not be annoying if the shooting plan was disrupted by an unexpected situation?
"I also want to know what's going on." Cao Yu looked at Qiao Man with tears in his eyes.
"Qiao Man, what do you mean! It was clearly agreed that the slapping scene was fake, why did you really hit me!"
Cao Yu said angrily,
"Are you deliberately taking this opportunity to bully me?"
Without waiting for Qiao Man to explain, Cao Yu continued to cry.
Qiao Man didn't speak. She listened quietly to Cao Yu's accusations against her.
It was a fake fight, but when she hit her, Cao Yu didn't move away. What's going on here? How could she not understand this after having been in the entertainment industry for so many years. "Before, you used acting to beat me on purpose. I didn't expect that five years later, Qiao Man, you would still go so far." Cao Yu pointed at Qiao Man and cursed.
