Chapter 445 - The Ghost Claw Appears
Chapter 445: The Ghost Claw Appears
Chi Shuyan was preoccupied in the car. Qi Zhenbai didn’t disturb his wife anymore. Jealousy was one thing, but his wife was already his, and Qi Zhenbai was very confident in their relationship.
If his wife didn’t like that Zhou Manqing woman, worst came to worst, Qi Corporation would no longer cooperate with her!
In Qi Zhenbai’s heart, his wife was the most important!
Chi Shuyan didn’t know what the man beside her was thinking. She only hoped that after avoiding his disfigurement in this life, Xie Mingxuan would be able to rewrite his life path.
However, she was still a little worried. Although Xie Mingxuan had avoided being disfigured, he had yet to avoid Zhou Manqing. In fact, Zhou Manqing was his real calamity.
Chi Shuyan had the vague sense that Xie Mingxuan had good taste and probably didn’t think much of Zhou Manqing. The scary thing was that Zhou Manqing was good at pretending. She was pretty and seemed to have many good qualities. It was hard to say if Xie Mingxuan would be able to stop himself from falling for her.
Before she met Xie Mingxuan, his life and death had nothing to do with her. However, since they had been fated to meet, she naturally couldn’t ignore this matter. Furthermore, the thing she hated most in both her past and present lives was the matter of borrowing luck. In addition, she was really curious about Zhou Manqing being possessed.
It was clearly the same face, but the fate in her physiognomy was completely different. Even if Zhou Manqing was really lucky, it was impossible for her features to change so quickly!
As for what the other party said about borrowing luck, Chi Shuyan only believed one percent of it.
On the other side, Zhou Manqing filmed until midnight before she returned to the five-star hotel.
Due to the delay with the explosion scene, Zhou Manqing’s schedule was also pushed back. If it were some other director, Zhou Manqing would still dare to act like a big shot. However, this was Director Li, and Zhou Manqing was still quite afraid of his stubborn temper.
When Zhou Manqing’s manager read the script, she said that this movie would definitely become popular and that Zhou Manqing should take it up. Zhou Manqing hadn’t thought much about it, but she was clear on her manager’s vision and capability. It hadn’t been easy to snatch this role. Even if Zhou Manqing wasn’t satisfied, she didn’t dare cause any trouble.
At 11:50 pm, Yu Rong accompanied Zhou Manqing back to the hotel. Seeing Manqing’s unhappy face, she vaguely guessed that it was probably because Director Li had filmed until very late today.
Yu Rong couldn’t say much, but she was quite optimistic about Director Li’s movie. She couldn’t help but advise, “Manqing, bear with it for a few more months. After this movie is done, we won’t choose such a tiring role again!”
Yu Rong’s words were in line with Zhou Manqing’s thoughts. She didn’t have much passion or love for acting, but she was very ambitious. Furthermore, acting could give her fame and fortune. No matter how much she disliked it, how could she say no to fame and fortune?
Zhou Manqing also made up her mind that the next time she picked a script, she would pick it herself. She would pick one that didn’t require her to put in so much effort; she didn’t want to tire herself out until so late like this again.
Standing in the elevator, Zhou Maning adjusted her appearance in front of her reflection. She was about to pat the dust off her shoulder, when something transparent, like a human hand or a claw, suddenly appeared on her left shoulder in the reflection on the elevator doors.
Zhou Manqing’s face froze and her lips trembled. Yu Rong noticed that something was wrong with Manqing’s expression and quickly asked, “Manqing, what’s wrong?”
Zhou Manqing came back to her senses. Her body was stiff, but when she looked at her reflection, there was nothing on her left shoulder. For a moment, Zhou Manqing wasn’t sure if she had really seen wrongly or not.
No, no, she must have seen wrongly. Zhou Manqing suppressed the way her teeth chattered as she pursed her lips and said, “I’m fine! Oh, right, Sister Yu, you said that you would get someone to help me go to the temple to ask for talismans?”
