Chapter 649: Morning Big Boss Volume (14): He Chen, What Scares You?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Qu Zixiao stared at Song Qingqing’s senior brother and tried his best to abandon the little bit of strangeness in his heart.

He remained silent.

His eyes drooped, and a trace of confusion flashed across them.

“It’s because of Film Emperor Qin, right?” Song Qingqing held a pair of chopsticks with one hand, her other hand dangled at her side. Her fingernails were pinched tightly into her palm on this other hand.

However, she had always been good at acting, so she talked to her brother with a normal expression.

Upon hearing this, her senior stopped discussing this topic. Instead, he glanced at her and asked, “Are you still studying? Last time I heard you wanted to take the 129 trainee test, are you prepared for it? I have insider information, and it’s rumored that it might be Morning Bird who set the questions this year. She’s the most sensitive to people’s needs among the five veterans, so the questions probably won’t be too difficult.”

After the Beijing incident, every family had lost people.

Unsurprisingly, unloyal people had been ferreted out in 129 as well. Ouyang Wei was one of them.

Now that there were several vacancies left open in 129, this year’s test would definitely be easier than the previous years.

Song Qingqing’s heart shook when she heard this good news. She had participated in the recruitment test of 129 twice before, and once had been with Ouyang Wei, but it had been too difficult to enter 129.

She had taken the exam from the age of 23 to 27. Even after 4 years, she still hadn’t been admitted.

If she could pass the exam, she would be like a carp transformed into a dragon. This was an extremely strong hot spot for herself and the entertainment circle.

Glancing at Qu Zixiao, she clenched her fists, her eyes drooping and thoughtful.

…

The next day.

Qu Zixiao returned to China.

“Chairman Qu, this is the courier collected by the front desk after you left.” As soon as he entered the company, Qu Zixiao received a courier.

It was a private courier.

He went into his office and opened it.

The moment he saw what was inside, he was stunned.

Inside was a green book, containing his divorce certificate with He Chen.

Qu Zixiao stared at it for a long time before putting it into the pocket of his coat.

In the evening, he had gone back to see Madam Qu and had asked about her condition.

Under Cheng Juan’s systematic treatment, Madam Qu’s illness hadn’t acted up while Qu Zixiao was away.

At the dining table, Madam Qu praised He Chen as usual. “It’s all thanks to Xiao Chen. This girl even sent me a bunch of things yesterday.”

Butler Qu took out a bowl of soup from the kitchen with a smile. “Young Madam is always careful. She knew that Madam likes Mr. Qi’s paintings and didn’t forget to bring it back when on a business trip in Continent M.”

The two sang the same tune.

Qu Zixiao sat down next to Madam Qu. He knew from Butler Qu that Madam Qu was in much better health now. Although he wanted to confess to Madam Qu about his divorce tonight, he really didn’t dare to at this moment.

He just silently ate, full of thoughts.

After eating, he went upstairs to bathe.

Butler Qu waited until he finished showering before knocking on the bathroom door.

Butler Qu came back with the black jacket that Qu Zixiao had put in the hall. “Young Master, your clothes.”

Having said this, Butler Qu pursed his lips. After a while, he said solemnly, “Also, something fell off your coat.”

It was the divorce certificate.

Qu Zixiao paused for a moment and lowered his head. “You know.”

“Young Master, why are you doing this?” Butler Qu was in disbelief and had to force himself to calm down. “Is there still room for change in this matter? I’ll go to see Madam, she…”

1

“No.” Qu Zixiao directly took his arm to prevent him from going to see Madam Qu. He said directly, “This is a conclusion we’ve settled on, even my mother can’t change it. I don’t like He Chen at all.”

He ignored the strange feeling in his heart.

“Butler Qu, go to bed early.” He closed the door.

Butler Qu stood there for a long time before sighing deeply.

Turning around, he was about to go downstairs when he saw Madam Qu standing not far away.

“Madam Qu, you… you heard everything?” Butler Qu’s expression changed.

Madam Qu took a deep breath. “Don’t worry about him. Xiao Chen deserves better.”

She was wrong, she shouldn’t have forced Qu Zixiao to like He Chen.

“Gather a list of unmarried young people in Beijing tomorrow.” Madam Qu glanced at Butler Qu. “I want them to be good characters in all aspects. I’ll personally choose.”

From today onwards, she wouldn’t force Qu Zixiao anymore.

…

Unaware of what was happening in the Qu family, He Chen still punctually came to the scene in Continent M every day.

Until August 3, when Qin Xiuchen finished filming a scene and the assistant brought a drink over. He turned around and asked the manager to send one to He Chen.

However, He Chen wasn’t on Director Lin’s pony tuck.

Chen Yu also glanced over there. Last time when he chatted with He Chen, she had said she was Film Emperor Qin’s fan.

The crew had already become accustomed to seeing He Chen watch the filming scene without moving for the past half a month, but they didn’t expect to not see her come all day today.

They were suddenly unaccustomed to her absence.

“Miss He should have returned home,” the manager said.

Qin Xiuchen nodded slightly.

In the evening, they returned to the hotel.

Qin Xiuchen received a call from Qin Ran.

“Ran Ran.” Qin Xiuchen frowned upon picking up, and his eyebrows couldn’t help but become more gentle. “Why did you call me?”

Qin Ran was greeted by countless people every day in this special period.

Fortunately, they all knew that she wasn’t patient, so they either called Cheng Mu or Cheng Juan to ask about her.

Cheng Juan had also specifically requested this.

Last night, Qin Xiuchen had just asked Cheng Juan about her. Now that Qin Ran was looking for him, he expected something must have happened.

“Are you free now?” On the other end, Qin Ran was downstairs in the hospital. It was still afternoon in Beijing, and she lowered her voice as people walked past her.

Qin Xiuchen walked with his mobile phone, opened his closet door, and took out his pajamas. “I’ve just ended work. There weren’t many scenes today.”

“Can you go to the Medical Organization to get a medicine now?” Qin Ran massaged her temples.

Qin Xiuchen paused slightly. “Go on.”

“Sister Chen was injured.” Qin Ran sat down at the edge of the flowerbed, glancing at the crowd of people downstairs. Her fierce expression covered her eyebrows, but her voice sounded as usual. “She didn’t go to the hospital, and Cheng Shui isn’t in Continent M either. I’ve already told the people in the Medical Organization to prepare the medicine. I don’t trust anyone else to go.”

After hanging up, Qin Ran held her phone and dialed Chang Ning’s number instead of going back in.

Chang Ning picked up quickly.

“Boss Chang Ning.” Qin Ran asked bluntly without even waiting for his answer, “What the hell is Sister Chen investigating?”

Chang Ning was just about to recite the speech he had prepared when Qin Ran said slowly, “You’d better think over it carefully before answering.”

…

In Continent M.

Qin Xiuchen drove to the Medical Organization and took a medical kit. The person-in-charge of delivering the medicine also told him in detail how to use it.

Qin Xiuchen had a good memory and remembered it after hearing it once.

Based on how serious Qin Ran had been, Qin Xiuchen knew that He Chen was probably on a secret mission, so he didn’t ask further and didn’t tell his manager either.

He Chen hadn’t returned to China and was still staying in the hotel.

Today, she was wearing a long white T-shirt and a pair of loose hot pants.

Through the thin T-shirt, her abdomen cluttered with bandages and bloodstains could vaguely be seen.

Indifferent, she held a beer in one hand, carried her laptop to the table, and started watching TV.

She was watching the variety show “24-hours Idol”.

Her mobile phone suddenly rang, and she looked at it to see a string of hidden numbers in China.

He Chen looked away.

The phone stopped for about two minutes and then rang again.

He Chen slammed the beer onto the table and picked it up calmly. “Dad.”

“Where are you now?” The voice on the other end was very cold and laced with anger.

“I’m on a business trip, I can’t go back,” He Chen said lightly.

“Did you divorce Qu Zixiao?” The person on the other end was very solemn.

He Chen smiled. “Since you already know everything, I won’t have to notify you again.”

Her dad panted roughly. “He Chen, are you trying to piss me off?!”

“I won’t dare to.”

“Won’t dare? No, He Chen, what could scare you?” He sneered. “You retained for a year, then went to University S. I told you to follow your sister and take the civil service exam, but you refused, and finally went to work at the newspaper agency! Now that you’ve been kicked out of the Qu family, where is the He family supposed to put our faces? Whether your sister is studying or working, everyone is envious of me. But when it comes to you, why is everyone secretly pointing me out and shaming you?”
