240 Feelings
Qiao Yue nodded, looked at Qiao Ze and said, “I think it’s worth a look.”
Qiao Ze looked at Qiao Yue, his previously dejected eyes lit up.
“Thank you,” Qiao Ze replied softly, completely unlike his arrogant and flirtatious celebrity persona.
“How are second uncle and the others doing?” Qiao Yue asked.
“Still not seeing the truth.” Qiao Ze shook his head.
Although Qiao Yi was a direct and legitimate descendant of the Qiao family, he actually didn’t have any of the Qiao’s character traits.
“I don’t think he’ll ever come back to apologize. He’s only thinking about how to ride on Mahad’s coattails to send himself abroad.” Qiao Ze shook his head.
Qiao Yue got a pretty good idea about their situation.
The two of them talked for a while more before they re-entered the house.
“Cheng Yang, I’ll do it. But it’s only for this role. A one-time deal only.”
Cheng Yang nodded quickly.
Even if it’s just a one-time deal, they could still ride on Qiao Yue’s current popularity. He had heard Qiao Ze mention that with Qiao Yue’s personality, he would not be an artiste long term.
Qiao Yue’s willingness to take on this role and help him this time was probably due to Qiao Ze’s persuasion.
“I’ve already prepared the contract. Please take a look.”
Cheng Yang quickly took out a contract and passed it to Qiao Yue.
Qiao Jing looked on coldly as Cheng Yang busied himself.
Qiao Jing knew that Qiao Yue had never liked the entertainment industry, but this time, she actually decided to join the industry? Could there be some other reason she did this? Or there was no other reason and she was just doing Qiao Ze a favor?
But why did she help Qiao Ze? Qiao Jing tried to come up with a reasonable explanation.
Maybe it was for better investigation, or a necessary step for their operation, or she simply wanted to help Qiao Ze.
There were many logical explanations, but Qiao Jing still felt a little bitter.
He didn’t want Qiao Yue and Qiao Ze to have any secrets that he didn’t know about.
Although he thought this, he didn’t interfere.
Just then, Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Jing. “Second brother, I don’t know much about contracts. Could you please help me take a look?”
Her voice was clear and melodious and she looked at Qiao Jing with a smile.
A smile appeared on Qiao Jing’s cold face as he took the contract from Qiao Yue.
The crowd in the living room also noticed the smile that flashed across Qiao Jing’s face.
Old Master Qiao looked at Qiao Jing thoughtfully, and Qiao Ren looked at his son with a frown.
Qiao Li didn’t look at Qiao Jing. Instead, he kept staring hatefully at Qiao Yue.
“There’s nothing wrong with this contract.” Qiao Jing handled the matter quickly. He had handled such contracts before.
It was just a simple, short-term film contract. There were no penalty fees or other clauses that were out of his expectation. It was a very ordinary contract.
“I’ll sign it if there’s no problem.” Qiao Yue signed her name on the contract.
Qiao Xin’s eyes were red with jealousy.
All Qiao Yue did was to dressed up as a girl and performed a dance, yet so many people liked him. She was clearly good at singing and knew how to play musical instruments, why hadn’t she become famous?
But at the thought of what AT had promised her, Qiao Xin calmed down.
Qiao Yue only signed a contract for a lousy movie. It was nothing compared to her bright future as a star!
Cheng Yang watched Qiao Yue sign the contract, and then left with Qiao Ze.
Qiao Jing called Qiao Yue to the study.
Everything looked normal in the study except for a small suitcase on the floor.
“Second brother, what are you doing with the suitcase? You can’t be thinking of eloping with me, right?” Qiao Yue said with a smile.
Qiao Jing knew that Qiao Yue was joking, but something still stirred in his heart.
He was very sure of his feelings for Qiao Yue. It was just that he had been controlling his thoughts. However, after watching the video of her dancing today, and seeing her sign the contract, and knowing the many secrets she still kept, he could no longer hold back his feelings.
He wanted to know her secrets and face all the difficulties that she was facing with her.
He looked at Qiao Yue deeply and finally said in a cold tone, “I’m going on a business trip. It’ll be December when I come back.”
Qiao Yue nodded in understanding. “Have a safe trip, second brother. There are more important things to do when you are back.”
Qiao Jing nodded and reached out to touch Qiao Yue’s hair.
Qiao Yue looked at him and did not avoid his touch. Instead, she looked back at him and smiled.
Qiao Jing reached out and pulled Qiao Yue into his arms.
