Chapter 434: Chapter 434
No need to trouble yourself so much.
"Boss Shen definitely wants to remarry you too. If you still don’t want to by then, you’ll understand how I feel."
Qiao Xi’s mood sank, and then she heard a familiar voice.
Xie Baola came striding over to them energetically.
After returning to the country, Xie Baola hadn’t cut her hair, and now it had grown past her shoulders.
Her chestnut hair was fluffy and slightly curly, making her look very relaxed.
In March, Xie Baola was already wearing high heels and a light autumn trench coat.
Watching Xie Baola sit down opposite, Su Tutu curiously asked, "Paula, aren’t you cold?"
Xie Baola crossed her long legs under the table, "I’ve been abroad for a long time; it’s not very cold. Have you ordered yet?"
After ordering, Xie Baola took out two scripts for them.
"This is the initial draft of the script; I’ll still modify it, but take a look at this version for now, and feel free to give any feedback."
The food hadn’t arrived yet, so Xie Baola took a sip of Qiao Xi’s juice.
She lazily leaned back into the sofa, "Ladies, have you read the original novel?"
The original novel wasn’t long, and Qiao Xi and Su Tutu had both found time to finish it.
Xie Baola’s script had some major changes from the original, but traces of the original could still be seen.
The thought-provoking aspects were even deeper.
And she added her own personal style to the script, making the plot and details much more substantial than in the original.
In the original, the male lead ended up with the female lead played by Qiao Xi.
Xie Baola had also changed the original’s ending in her script.
Qiao Xi had read the original novel twice, and after reading the script, she could make comparisons.
Qiao Xi closed the script and smiled lightly at Xie Baola, "Paula, I think this investment might not lose out."
Su Tutu also closed her script and beamed brightly at her, "Paula, it would be great if you could get me a Movie Queen award."
Getting the Movie Queen award would mean she could have children with Brother Chao!
That way, after she came back from maternity leave, she wouldn’t be afraid of getting phased out by the entertainment industry.
Although Sheng Chao was there to guard her career, Su Tutu still hoped to reach a new level in her career before embarking on motherhood.
This was essentially an endorsement of her script.
Xie Baola laughed heartily.
Qiao Xi was about to hand her the script when Xie Baola said, "Keep this script; I specifically copied it for you. I’ll send you the final version once I’ve decided on it."
The waiter served the meal. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt
Several steaks, fruit salads, and desserts were brought to the table.
Qiao Xi slowly cut a small piece of steak and put it in her mouth, "Tastes good; we can come here again next time."
Su Tutu ate heartily.
Qiao Xi looked up slightly, her long lashes fluttering a few times, "Paula, what about your male lead? Still considering Movie Emperor Jiang?"
Xie Baola shook her head, her expression complex, "In the film industry, there are few who look good and can act better than you guys."
Su Tutu, busy with her meal, still joined the conversation, "I think there are quite a few, Paula. Do you know Yi Ting? He’s a national heartthrob who used to be more involved in TV shows and is rarely seen now, but his popularity is still there, and he’s still one of the top celebrities. His movie last year with Nie Qing had a good box office. His smile is very warm, and he has a suitable image."
But his acting is also inconsistent.
Though it might be due to the scripts, he indeed is a good actor.
Xie Baola shook her head, a mischievous smile on her lips, "But that doesn’t stop me from Googling him."
Xie Baola searched for information on Yi Ting.
His photos appeared on Baidu.
He had handsome features, extremely attractive, and indeed had a warm smile and captivating eyes.
Xie Baola’s eyes immediately brightened, "My goodness, this Yi Ting is so handsome!"
Su Tutu squinted her eyes, slightly sly, "Who do you think is more handsome, Yi Ting or Xi Xi’s brother?"
"Definitely Chen Jiayan."
She didn’t hesitate with her words.
Since Chen Jiayan wasn’t here, Xie Baola still praised him, "In my heart, no man can compare to Chen Jiayan."
The person she liked was the best in the world.
Qiao Xi placed her phone on the table, turned her head, and smiled lightly, "Good sister, I’ve recorded your words for Brother Jiayan to hear."
Xie Baola’s eyes crinkled, all charm, "Let me say a few more good things about him, and you record it for him. But don’t say I told you to do it, I want him to know my feelings and completely submit to me."
Su Tutu glanced at Qiao Xi and saw she was at a loss for words, her lips curling up, holding back her laughter.
She hadn’t expected her best friend to react .
"Just kidding." Qiao Xi bent her lips, innocuously saying, "Actually, I didn’t record it."
Xie Baola grabbed Qiao Xi’s phone and handed it to her, her foxy eyes earnest, "Xi Bao, my good friend, later when I say a few nice things about him, record it and send it to him, for the sake of my love!"
"Hahaha, I’m going to laugh myself to death." Su Tutu laughed uproariously.
Qiao Xi looked skeptical, "Paula, after so long, you still haven’t managed to win over Brother Jiayan?"
But she was surprised Xie Baola had persevered for so long.
"Good men need to be pursued slowly. If he agreed too quickly, where would be the fun in that? I’m waiting for him to surrender to me."
She was about to close the net.
Su Tutu and Qiao Xi exchanged smiles.
Su Tutu tried to hold back her laughter and advised, "Sister, if it really doesn’t work out, maybe chase another man."
Xie Baola rolled her eyes at her, "Bad idea, I want to chase Chen Jiayan."
But Su Tutu seriously considered it, "The last time I was at Xi Xi’s place for dinner, I felt that Chen Jiayan agreeing to you is just a matter of time."
That man’s gaze at Paula was anything but simple.
Xie Baola thought so too.
Qiao Xi’s phone suddenly rang.
Su Tutu narrowed her eyes, "Let me guess, it’s definitely Boss Shen’s call."
Xie Baola: "Hey, congratulations, you guessed it."
Qiao Xi ignored them and answered Shen Dang’s call.
Shen Dang’s voice was lazy but gentle.
Qiao Xi also spoke softly, "Eating now, with Baola and Tutu."
"Coming home tonight?"
"Okay, then enjoy your meal, and we’ll see each other later."
After she hung up, Su Tutu clicked her tongue, her gaze suggestive, "Boss Shen is really clingy. When the show airs, I definitely need to see what you two did at home for two days, and whether it’s suitable for viewers."
Qiao Xi smiled gently, "Hmm, I also want to see your segment at the hospital checking for pregnancy with Brother Chao."
Good friends hurting each other.
Xie Baola was shocked, "Tutu, you’re pregnant?"
