Chapter 55: Wife vs Mistress I

It was now at 1.50 p.m.

Gu Qingqing stood in front of the toilet mirror to tidy up her attire. Looking into the mirror, she saw that she had actually put on something nice today. Somehow, the thought of that made her laugh

Was she out of her mind?

Why would she tidy her attire before meeting Chen Wenjie?

What was she expecting?

Or was she still upset by the fact that Chen Wenjie picked up Leng Sicheng’s call when she called him earlier?

Chen Wenjie was not the first woman to appear in Qin Cheng apartment. There was no reason for her to feel upset.

Perhaps it was Chen Wenjie’s beauty and appearance that granted her the confidence to attract Leng Sicheng.

After she splashed some water on her face, she found Lin Zhouyi waiting outside as she walked out of the toilet.

“Director Lin…”

Gu Qingqing was startled by him.

“Someone told me that you are hiding away in the bathroom because of the stress? I don’t think that’s a good idea. Consider this advertisement as my test for you. The pressure that you are experiencing right now should not stop you from coming to the meeting, right?” said Lin Zhouyi with a smile.

His encouragement and sweet smile managed to lift a portion of Gu Qingqing’s anxiety.

“Director Lin, have you forgotten how I stopped Chen Wenjie from leaving the company? I will go all out as long as you are not worried that I might offend her again…”

Suddenly, they heard footsteps coming out of the elevator. Speak of the devil, Chen Wenjie was here. Immediately, Gu Qingqing turned around to look at Chen Wenjie. To her surprise, her skin was paler than usual, highlighted further by her oversized shades, which she still had on. When she passed Gu Qingqing and Lin Zhouyi, she did not even bother to greet them. It seemed like she was in a foul mood.

Not only had Chen Wenjie lost her pride, but her assistant and manager were clearly upset by something as well. Though they were trying really hard to nurture her into a future star, it was still impossible for them to lighten her mood.

What in the world was going on?

Judging by Leng Sicheng’s cold-shoulder and the fact that he went to The Star to look for another woman, it could very well be Leng Sicheng had lost interest in Chen Wenjie.

After that, Chen Wenjie, her assistant, and manager, entered the meeting room. She plopped herself on the soft couch without saying a single word. Looking out the window, she glanced at her cellphone from time to time. Her appearance gave off the vibe of a woman that was waiting for her husband to return from war. When it came to the advertisement, it seemed like she had no care of it anymore. She handed the matter to her manager.

Though Leng Sicheng had scolded him, the manager forcefully cheered himself up as he discussed the advertisement with Xu Yi. It seemed that they were hoping to shorten the shooting time to lower cost overruns and any unwanted mishaps. Xu Yi was fine with it since it was not a difficult demand to meet.

Chen Wenjie was still feeling upset after she left the meeting room, pressing the phone to her ear in an attempt to call someone. However, she seemed to brighten up when someone answered her call.

“Director Leng…”
