Chapter 2118 - 2118 Twins
2118 Twins
“How is that possible? Am I that kind of person?”
“You know the answer to that question very well.”
With that, Qiao Weiyang walked forward without looking back.
Qiao Jierou gritted her teeth. No, she couldn’t let Qiao Weiyang continue to be so arrogant.
At night, Qiao Jierou returned to the Qiao family and respectfully served tea to Old Madam Qiao.
Old Master Qiao was not in good health and had already returned upstairs to rest.
Qiao Jierou often accompanied Old Madam Qiao, and her attitude had always been very good.
Old Madam Qiao drank her tea and asked calmly, “How’s your filming going recently?”
“It’s always been good. With Brother Heng accompanying me, I don’t have to worry about anything. As for Sister…”
“What’s wrong with her?”
“Grandma, as an artiste, it’s impossible for Sister to not have a management company at all. Brother Heng asked her to sign a contract with him, but she refused. I know that she still hates me and Brother Heng for letting her down. However, she’s at a disadvantage in the entertainment industry. If what happened last night wasn’t a misunderstanding or if someone deliberately had framed her, how could she have handled it?”
Old Madam Qiao drank her tea and listened to her patiently.
“Of course, I have some selfish motives. Grandma, my sister and I are sisters, after all. If she makes a fool of herself, won’t others say that I’m colluding with her?”
“That’s true. That’s what I’m most worried about. The reputation of the entire Qiao family will be easily tainted by these messy things. Speaking of which, we really have to get her to sign with a company. Let’s make the preparations.”
“Okay. Grandma, I have a recommendation. Guo Ping’an’s company is Hua Yang World.”
Old Madam Qiao flipped through the documents seriously and realized that although this company was not as good as Hengyuan, it had many artistes under it. Although the resources were not the best, they were still very good.
Guo Ping’an was already in his 30s. He was very steady in his work.
“However, I heard that Guo Ping’an has a bad private life,” Old Madam Qiao said.
“In the entertainment industry, everyone likes to spread such gossip. It’s normal for even Sister to be gossiped about. As long as one does one’s job well, there’s nothing to fear.”
Old Madam Qiao nodded.
After Qiao Weiyang finished filming for the day, she walked out of the studio.
A familiar figure stood in front of her huge van.
“Sister Weiyang, I heard that this is your butler. He’s been waiting for you here,” Tao Huan, her assistant, said as she ran over.
“Yes, I understand.”
Seeing that she really knew him, Tao Huan ran to the side.
“Butler Qiao, why are you looking for me?”
The butler was Old Master Qiao’s subordinate, so his attitude toward Qiao Weiyang was passable.
Qiao Weiyang gave him some face and had always been polite to him.
“Eldest Miss, Old Master said that it’ll be the old madam’s 70th birthday. No matter what, she’s still your grandmother, so you should go back and show some filial piety.”
“I understand.”
“Eldest Miss, Old Master said that the Qiao family has indeed let you down in many ways. He invited you back not because he wants you to get along with everyone, but because he knows that if you can’t let go, it won’t be good for your mood.”
How could Qiao Weiyang not know what her grandfather was thinking?
If it weren’t for her grandfather protecting her previously, how could she have come back to this family? At that time, she would have stayed in the countryside with Aunt Lin and lived a calm and stable life.
“Tell Grandpa that I’ll go back.”
…
Old Master Qiao sat on the sofa and said, “Are you satisfied now? Weiyang is still willing to come back to celebrate your birthday.”
“What’s there to be dissatisfied about? As a junior, it’s only right for her to celebrate my birthday.” Old Madam Qiao slowly drank her tea.
Old Master Qiao shook his head and did not say anything else.
In the blink of an eye, it was Old Madam Qiao’s birthday.
“Do you really not need me to accompany you back?” Su Zhuoqian asked.
“There’s really no need. I’m just going to be there for a while before leaving. What right does she have to… ask me to celebrate her birthday?”
“I thought you were too ashamed to bring me,” Su Zhuoqian said in a low voice.
Qiao Weiyang shook her head. “Even if I bring you back, it should be for a grand occasion. It should be an occasion worthy of you going. Now, don’t they think that the husband I married is a sick man? I just have to make sure that they don’t have any information about you. That way, they can’t curry favor with me even if they want to.”
Su Zhuoqian’s eyebrows relaxed slightly as he reached out to touch her hair.
“Go ahead. I’ll wait for you.”
Qiao Weiyang nodded, got out of his car, and resolutely walked toward the birthday banquet.
Su Zhuoqian sat in the driver’s seat and looked at her beautiful back. He slowly closed his eyes.
…
The location of the birthday banquet was very lively.
Naturally, Old Madam Qiao’s 70th birthday had to be a grand affair.
Even though Old Master Qiao had many conflicting thoughts with her, he was dressed up and smiling tonight.
There were many VIPs coming and going. After everyone came in, they all went to Old Madam Qiao’s side to celebrate her birthday.
Qiao Jierou and Qiao Dongliang stood beside her.
As he did not go to many social events, everyone would only say that he had grown taller or was successful in his studies.
However, when they saw Qiao Jierou, they praised her endlessly.
The more Old Madam Qiao listened, the more satisfied she was.
After Qiao Weiyang walked in, not many people noticed her.
She walked in slowly, and someone was walking toward her with a glass of red wine.
“Miss Qiao, I’m Guo Ping’an.” The person was in his early 30s and looked very mature. The suit he was wearing enhanced his aura.
“Hello, President Guo of Hua Yang World,” Qiao Weiyang took the wine politely and replied with a smile.
“It seems that you know me, Miss Qiao.”
“I know your name, President Guo.” Qiao Weiyang’s tone was polite.
But there was always a layer of alienation between them.
Guo Ping’an noticed this and asked with a smile, “What’s wrong? Are you very wary of me, Miss Qiao?”
He tried his best to show his sincerity.
However, at a glance, his eyes were empty and turbid.
With Qiao Weiyang’s professional knowledge, it was obvious that alcohol, women, and money had hollowed him out.
How could Qiao Weiyang not know that he had a flawed character?
“President Guo, people in the entertainment industry have always known how to protect themselves, no?”
“Hahaha, Miss Qiao, you’re very clear-headed. That’s right. I heard that you don’t have a company yet. Are you interested in joining my company? Recently, we’re in the midst of preparing a few big projects and are looking for a suitable female lead.”
Qiao Weiyang looked in Old Madam Qiao’s direction. It turned out that she had another motive for inviting her over. She planned to sign her with someone like Guo Ping’an.
