The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 228: Mr. Joe, sorry I’m late.



Chapter 228

The pain was still going on, but it was much lighter. Fortunately, it did not affect walking. Qin Wei went out the door and downstairs, and saw Li Hanming bringing Li Yao in.

As soon as their eyes met, Li Yao opened and closed his mouth several times, but he couldn't get a word out.

"Ancestor, Xiao Han said you were injured, is it that serious?"

Seeing the bandage fixing Qin Wei's arm, Li Yao spoke while completely collapsing at the same time, feeling so distressed that he almost cried.

Qin Wei cleared her throat and said,

"It's fine, it's just a dislocation, not a fracture."

"Nonsense! No fractures, don't talk nonsense anymore. Who injured you? Let him come out, I won't do anything, I just want to tell him that he must be responsible for you!"

"Let's go first. Xiao Han has told you what needs to be said. If we are late, General Manager Xu might kill someone."

Qin Wei interrupted him. Her arm still hurt and the pain made her irritable. She was in no mood to talk about this with him at all.

Li Hanming looked at the time:

"Brother Li Yao, we do need to go now. Calm down a bit. Going to the airport is the main thing. We can talk about the other things after today."

Li Yao took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions, then patted Li Hanming on the shoulder,

"Thank you Xiao Han. I will remember how you took care of Qin Wei. Let's get in touch later."

Li Hanming nodded and watched Li Yao support Qin Wei away. Then he went back to the training ground to train according to the instructor's words.

On the other side, Song Huan also slowly walked down the stairs.

"For you, is a dislocation not considered a minor injury during routine training?"

Song Huan looked at Zheng Qiancheng and asked.

Zheng Qiancheng knew the causes and consequences, so he roughly understood what she was thinking:

"For us, they are all minor injuries. Falling down and getting hurt is commonplace, but you can't use this standard to require others. You have lived in your own world for too long. I have heard about you... but she is an ordinary person. Her endurance to pain is far less than yours."

Song Huan thought about it and subconsciously touched her wrist. Under the sleeves, there was a four-inch long scar extending down her arm.

It was left during a mission, when she was ambushed and stabbed down to the bone. But at that time, she also felt it was nothing.

Song Huan took out her phone and quietly found a corner to make a call.

"Hello, Captain Song, I'm repairing a car."

"I...did something wrong and felt I should let you know..."

Song Huan took a deep breath,

"Um... I dislocated Qin Wei's arm..."

Mu Chen replied:

"Oh really? Then can she go back to where she's supposed to be now?"

Song Huan was stunned:

"I feel like everyone on our team should see a psychologist. Captain Yang said that although it was an accident, it was also too much and I need to apologize, but I don't know how to apologize for her to accept it..."

The man on the phone thought for a moment:

"Why do you have such a conscience?

When we were sparring last time and you kicked and broke my ribs, you weren't so polite...

But when I was boxing and broke Feng Yuxi's wrist, I didn't say anything either...

He still helped me repair cars the next day after surgery...

For a minor dislocation, just forget about it."

Song Huan frowned:

"Do you have a conscience? Is she really your sister?"

"Yes, she's my cousin, genuine cousin.

Oh, anyway, it's just a dislocation. I've been a soldier since I was 16 until now. Dislocations are the least significant thing for me...

It's good for her to go home and recuperate without affecting her acting. She, actually you don't need to worry too much. When she was little, she got hit in the head with a bottle, but she still chased me and beat me for three blocks. She's not that weak..."

Mu Chen spoke very lightly about it, as if it was nothing.

Song Huan rubbed her forehead:

"I was just thinking the same as you earlier, but when I told the comrades in the brother unit, he felt I had a problem.

After hearing what you said, I feel there really is a problem. I'm going to apply to Captain Yang for our whole team to see a psychologist."

There was a cold laugh from the phone:

"You can go see one if you need to, but I'm not sick. However, I can observe your whole psychological treatment process. I want to see if the doctor or you goes crazy first."

Song Huan retorted:

"You were right about one thing. Captain Yang was very surprised that she didn't cry at all when her arm was dislocated.

Plus her usual performance, he just said that Qin Wei has proper values, good physical fitness, some spirit of sacrifice, doesn't abandon or give up on teammates, can endure humiliation and hardship, has a resilient personality, and is still so strong.

I've known Captain Yang for almost 10 years and have never heard him praise anyone like this. I even wondered if he didn't know those words of praise. But just now, that's how he praised your sister.

You're an intelligence investigator, making up stories can only fool me because I trust you, not Captain Yang.

And Captain Yang also felt that as long as she doesn't back down, he'll sincerely invite her after training ends."

...

After getting in the car, Li Yao let his assistant Li Liang drive while he himself sat in the passenger seat, busy making phone calls. The makeup artist Xiao Yan was also there. After the filming of "Against the Wind" ended, Xiao Yan had officially joined An Xing as Qin Wei's dedicated makeup artist.

When Qin Wei got in the car and saw Xiao Yan there too, she simply greeted her, then started resting with her eyes closed. Originally Li Liang still wanted to ask about Qin Wei’s injury, but Xiao Yan shook her head, signaling her not to disturb Qin Wei’s rest.

At first the signal was bad on the road and they had to wait until getting on the highway for it to recover. Li Yao hurriedly coordinated with the airport. Fortunately everything went smoothly. Although one flight was delayed, they could still easily make the next flight...

Backstage at the event that night, at the end of the hallway.

"Brother Kai, it's almost time."

Qian Lang came to remind.

Before Shen Kai could reply, the door of the dressing room next door opened first.

Wearing an RG blue-gray dress, Qiao Sixiao walked out with star-shaped sequins and petals on the gauze of the skirt, shining like starlight under the lights.

She looked up and saw Shen Kai. Her already worried face grew even more solemn.

Shen Kai looked at her, then out the window, and said to her in a low voice,

"The visibility is very low. All flights coming this way were delayed this afternoon. It's almost time, let's go stand by."

After that, Shen Kai made a "please" gesture.

Qiao Sixiao looked at her assistant, who nodded and told her that was right.

Since that was the case, that was all they could do.

Qiao Sixiao adjusted her state and went with Shen Kai to stand by backstage.

There was one minute until opening. Shen Kai supported Qiao Sixiao as they walked onto the stage and stood in the predetermined position. Following the countdown in their earpieces, they made final adjustments in the darkness——

[9]

[8]

[7]

...

The event was about to start. But Shen Kai suddenly pressed the earpiece and then gently sighed, leaving the words "Excuse me" and quickly walked off stage, leaving Qiao Sixiao alone in confusion.

Before she could ask what was going on, she heard the countdown end in her earpiece at the same time the lights came on and the audience below cheered and applauded.

Although she didn't have much hosting experience, she had still seen many big occasions. So Qiao Sixiao was not thrown into disorder by Shen Kai's unexplained departure. Instead, she showed a bright smile to the camera and slowly said when the applause quieted:

"On the night of fireflies, we gather here in the southwest from all directions. I represent the southwest region in welcoming everyone. I'm your host for tonight, Qiao Sixiao..."

What should follow was Shen Kai's self introduction, but he had inexplicably left.

So far, the staff had not given instructions on what to do next.

"I'm the host Qin Wei."

Just as she was hesitating on how to continue, she heard Qin Wei's voice coming from behind.

She had come after all.

Qiao Sixiao looked back and saw Qin Wei walking over in a black strapless gown, also wearing a black suit jacket.

She had elegant makeup on, holding a microphone in her right hand, walking calmly towards her, attracting quite a few people's gazes and applause with her in high spirits look.

The relief Qiao Sixiao felt only lasted a few seconds before her eyes fell on the bandage wrapped around the other's left arm. Like everyone there, she was also a bit surprised and wondered what exactly the situation was.

Standing in the spotlight, the light-colored bandages made Qin Wei's look today particularly eye-catching.

Since it was a live broadcast, many bullet screen comments floated up——

[The makeup today is too exquisite, the bright red lip color is so stylish!]

[Suit plus strapless dress, what's today's female tycoon look!]

[Is the bandage also part of the look? Is it going to be popular to have some injury style? Or is she really injured?]

[She doesn't seem unwell. Lu E still looks quite healthy and spirited. I also think it's part of her styling.], [The two of them together, I feel like I can instantly compose a story of a aloof tycoon and top celebrity, with at least 10,000 words to start.]

Qin Wei walked over to her and held up the microphone, saying to her:

"Teacher Lu, sorry I'm late."
