Chapter 155 Doing things that offend people
Shen Chaohuai found a place to sit down and said disdainfully, "A newcomer like you dares to speak so sarcastically about being wronged?"
Shu Yu didn't dare to say much to Shen Chaohuai, so she went to Su Qi and said, "However, I still want to thank you for helping me out of that predicament last time."
Su Qi propped his head up with one hand and said casually, "Really? If you really want to thank me, how about we do it another way?"
"What?" Shu Yu was stunned.
Su Qi deliberately said, "Join me."
Shu Yu shook her head, not understanding Su Qi's meaning.
"Your boss is Zheng Ran, and the Zheng family is my mortal enemy. If you dare to work for me behind his back, I'll protect you. That way, I'll believe you're genuinely grateful to me."
Shu Yu hesitated, knowing that the phenomenon of celebrities forming cliques was serious in the entertainment industry, but she did not expect that Zheng Xin and Shen Qingyue would have such a big change in the industry, and that Su Qi was already in charge.
She thought for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, how would you like me to help you?"
Su Qi said, "Join me when we're filming the dating reality show, and follow my instructions."
She lowered her head: "Sure enough, someone like me can only ever be at the lowest level, no matter where I go."
It was clearly Shu Yu who belittled herself. If she hadn't had any ulterior motives towards Zheng Ran after leaving Qingshan, she wouldn't have gone astray like she has now.
Su Qi wanted to save her if she could completely sever ties with Zheng Ran.
Unfortunately not.
After Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai signed the contract, Su Qi was about to invite Shu Yu to go back together, but Shu Yu declined the invitation, saying that she had a work engagement later.
Su Qi was still worried, so she turned back and overheard Shu Yu talking to Zheng Ran about what had just happened.
"Su Qi wants to win me over."
The person opposite suddenly laughed: "That's hilarious. So, do you want to join her?"
Shu Yu shook his head: "Young Master Zheng has given me a second chance at life. How can someone like him compare?"
As expected, Su Qi breathed a sigh of relief and got into Shen Chaohuai's car.
Shen Chaohuai said, "You know perfectly well that she won't listen to you; she only cares about who offers her the best terms."
Su Qi fastened her seatbelt: "I can also give her certain benefits, money and resources, but I don't think that's what she needs."
Shu Yu cares a lot about her reputation and considers herself a chosen one. She wants to prove herself, otherwise she wouldn't have switched careers to become an artist.
Shen Chaohuai shook his head helplessly and said to the driver in the front seat, "Drive."
Seeing that Su Qi and Shen Chaohuai had gone back, Lynn drove home alone with a sense of relief: "Tsk, that's what good relationships are."
In the quiet car, Su Qi looked tired, while Shen Chaohuai, even while sitting in the car, didn't forget to handle company affairs; he was practically a workaholic.
However, Su Qi no longer remembers what her past with Shen Chaohuai was like, or whether Shen Chaohuai was a workaholic like he used to be.
Thinking of this, she looked at him and suddenly smiled.
Shen Chaohuai glanced at him and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
She pursed her lips and gave a nasal hum.
"I wish I could regain my memories. I want to remember things from before."
His brow furrowed: "The past? That wasn't a good thing."
He held the pen and scribbled haphazardly in his notebook, momentarily lost in thought.
"Could you tell me what I used to do, and what you used to do?"
Shen Chaohuai looked at her worriedly: "Didn't we agree not to dwell on the past?"
He had worked so hard to help her start over, and he didn't want to, and couldn't afford to, gamble on bringing back those painful memories.
She shook her head and pulled a gun from her waistband. It was the gun Shen Chaohuai had given her earlier to protect herself.
Shen Chaohuai reached out and stopped the gun in her hand: "If you really want to know, I can tell you."
He smiled maliciously: "You are the Empress, and I am your male concubine."
After saying that, he felt his cheeks burning red.
"Really?" Su Qi knew he was joking, but she still went along with it: "Okay, then you'll serve me tonight?"
The driver suddenly slammed on the brakes ahead, frantically explaining, "N-no, I'm sorry, we've arrived."
The two stopped at the crossroads of the villas. Shen Chaohuai awkwardly touched the tip of his nose: "When someone gets frivolous, I really go too far."
Su Qi deliberately ignored him and parted ways with him. As soon as she left, an electric current surged from her fingertips.
Feifei escaped from her clothes.
[It's so boring, Master. You seem to have triggered some new quest.]
Su Qi looked down at the light screen.
Please note that you have triggered the "Dating Variety Show Invitation" event.
[Due to the character Shen Qingyue's imprisonment, the dating reality show is currently one female star short. According to current information, the show is also planning to reduce the number of male stars by one.]
[Before the production team of this dating reality show selects male celebrities to be removed from the list, please choose the ones you don't want and request their assistance, then inform the production team.]
[There is no reward for this incident. It concerns your performance and personal safety in the dating reality show, so please take it seriously.]
Su Qi pointed to herself, incredulous: "Me? You want me to do something that offends people?"
Seeing that Su Qi had her back to him and seemed to be doing something, Shen Chaohuai kindly asked, "Su Qi, are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to help you?"
Su Qi shook her head: "No, no, thank you."
She quickly turned off the screen and left.
He suddenly froze on the spot, as if he had something on his mind, carefully recalling what the little transparent thing she was wearing had said.
After returning home, Su Qi collapsed onto the sofa: "Seriously, what's wrong with this damn system? You convinced a male celebrity not to participate? Why don't you do something that offends people?!"
I also want to help my master, but I'm just an invisible AI...
Su Qi calmed herself down and began to think seriously: "Right, if we really had to lose a male star, who would it be?"
When she first participated in a dating reality show, several male celebrities didn't treat her well. Because of the original owner of the body, Su Qi was also forced to become universally disliked. After she turned her reputation around, everyone switched sides to support her.
Looking back now, there really wasn't a single enemy she could bring herself to eliminate.
Who is the person the owner least wants to see?
If I had to pick someone I least want to see, it would definitely be Gu Xing. Every time I get involved with him, I get embroiled in scandals, and they're never anything good. It would be better if I were to create a scandal with Shen Chaohuai; at least I'd feel better listening to the criticism directed at her.
"Gu Xing... but he's too high-profile, how can I prevent him from participating?"
[Give him some benefits, or find a way to exchange gigs for him, or fill his schedule completely so he can't participate in variety shows, right? And you don't have to offend anyone.]
"You've become smarter."
Su Qi's eyes darted around: "Okay, let's do it that way."
Su Qi happened to have a movie shooting contract waiting to be signed, and the male lead had not yet been chosen, so she invited Gu Xing.
Su Qi made a phone call to Gu Xing, whose voice sounded groggy as if he had just woken up.
"Hmm? Xiao Qi?"
She paused for a moment: "Are you out partying again? Stop messing around. I have a job offer. Will you sign it or not? It's going to cause a conflict with the dating reality show. The choice is yours."
Gu Xing got up and put on his coat. He had just recovered from the flu and was feeling listless, having slept for three days and three nights straight.
He poured himself a glass of ice water and drank it down, feeling dizzy: "Are you making a movie? You're the female lead? I can sign, I can sign. I can also participate in a dating reality show. Can I not choose? I want them all."
