Transmigrated as the Tortured Female Lead's Daughter

Chapter 379 - Skiing

Chapter 379: Chapter 378: Skiing

?

When filming, the director was at the bottom of the food chain. When the movie was released, the director had to take the blame.

Who could be more wronged than him?

Director Zhu was especially envious of Lu Shanhe. Lu Shanhe was the real deal.

The actor dared to add scenes? Lu Shanhe would kick them out.

The actor’s acting was bad? Lu Shanhe would kick them out.

Even the movie queen Cao Yuezhi was no exception. There was only one person in the entertainment industry who had such courage. The entire production team had to listen to Lu Shanhe and treat his words as Gospel.

Other than Lu Shanhe, who was a unique weirdo, the rest of the directors all had their tails between their legs.

Wang Tiancheng inhaled and blew out a thick ring of smoke. “Someone has to take the blame. You have to make a statement and take responsibility.”

Director Zhu nodded.”...okay.”

Someone had to take the blame. He couldn’t afford to offend anyone else. As a director, his words were light, and he was the best person to take the blame. Director Zhu posted a long Weibo post, indicating that he had made a lot of changes to the plot and was willing to apologize for it.

Once the statement was posted, the female celebrities who had paid their way in, screenwriter Willow, Cao Yuezhi, and the others all secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

The angry audience pointed the blame at the poor director and attacked him relentlessly on the internet.

However, Director Zhu did not take the blame for too long. An unknown screenwriter, Beanie, publicly announced that the screenwriter Willow had stolen er work. Immediately gossip about the plagiarism and heavy editing of “South Wind Intoxication” raged, and the Internet fell into a new round of chaos.

In this debate, the stock price of Wang Entertainment evaporated by one billion in one night...

...

Gu Chu did not have the time to care about the public debate on the Internet. The large-scale quarrel on the internet was nothing more than a battle between rich people behind the scenes. Wang Entertainment offended too many people. It was obvious that someone was preparing to mess with the Wang Corporation.

Gu Chu roughly guessed who was behind the scenes, so she stopped stirring up trouble.

Now, Gu Chu had nothing to do every day. The winter break was too short, and school was about to start. Mama was busy filming outside all day. Uncle and Brother Xiaozhou were busy with their own work, and Song Chen was also addicted to his work.

Gu Chu was so bored that little mushrooms were growing on her head.

Gu Chu missed the free time in her previous life. In her previous life, she was free and did whatever she wanted. She had never been bored or sleepy.

Now, she was a six-year-old child. The adults took good care of her. She couldn’t touch this or that. She was spoiled and protected by the adults every day. Gu Chu’s unruly soul was going crazy.

That day, Cheng Qi came to visit with winter strawberries and saw Gu Chu. Cheng Qi raised his eyebrows and roughly guessed what was going on. He offered a friendly invitation. “Chuchu, there’s a snow mountain in the eastern suburbs. Do you want to go skiing with me?”

The Capital was a plain city surrounded by mountains. The highest mountain had snow in winter and was suitable for skating and skiing.

When Gu Chu heard this, she finally had a way to pass the time. She immediately nodded happily. “That’s great. I love skiing.”

After reporting everything to Mommy and Uncle, Cheng Qi and Bobo personally went to pick Gu Chu up the next day. The three of them sped all the way to the snowy mountain in the eastern suburbs.

Winter had not yet passed, and the thick snow covered this beautiful mountain. There was a luxurious lodging house on the mountainside. The house looked like a wooden house in a Swiss village. From afar, it looked exquisite and beautiful.

“Wow!” Bobo carried a backpack on his back and exclaimed. Suddenly, he changed into a different person, “It’s so beautiful — Oh right, Big Brother, you’re going to pay for everything this time, right? I just want to make sure. If I have to pay, I’ll roll down the mountain and go home now.”

Cheng Qi half-squatted and helped Gu Chu tie her shoelaces. He said casually, “I’ll pay for everything.”

Bobo: “Big Brother, you’re the best!!”

Bobo cheerfully ran to the front desk to register. Cheng Qi booked a private wooden house. There was a bed downstairs, and two beds upstairs. Outside the bungalow was a sparkling and translucent snowy scene. It was covered in white snow, and a cool breeze blew in, making it cool and refreshing.

The floor was warm inside the bungalow, and Gu Chu’s little face was flushed from the heat.

“Brother Cheng Qi, Chuchu wants to sleep by the window upstairs.” Gu Chu tugged at the corner of Cheng Qi’s clothes. “There are pine trees outside the window, and you can see far into the distance –”

Cheng Qi nodded. “Okay, I’ll help you move your suitcase upstairs.”

“Brother, brother, I want to sleep upstairs too.” Bobo was on his own and planned to run upstairs with the backpack on his back. Cheng Qi stopped him. “Sleep downstairs.”

Bobo mumbled, “Why? The view is better on the second floor. I want to sleep on the second floor too.”

Cheng Qi glanced at his cheap younger brother.

Bobo felt a sudden chill in the room. Bobo went back to the first floor and put his hiking bag on the big bed on the first floor. “I... I’d better sleep on the first floor. If there’s an avalanche, I can run away immediately.”

Gu Chu didn’t notice the conversation between the two brothers. She ran to the second floor excitedly. The room on the second floor was spacious. There were two tatami beds. Gu Chu opened a wooden window and stretched out her hands to pull at the pine branches outside.

The snow on the branches fell.

Gu Chu laughed happily.

Cheng Qi saw everything — the beautiful and tidy wooden house, the innocent little girl, and the Green Pine branches that were covered in snow. The silver-bell-like laughter made him feel good.

The naughty and unruly Ace of Hearts had such a cute side... Cheng Qi treasured it dearly.

He took out his phone and snapped a picture.

Cheng Qi took the picture because firstly, he liked Ace of Hearts and wanted to keep all the beautiful memories related to her; on the other hand, when Gu Chu found out his real identity and wanted to commit murder in the future, Cheng Qi would take out these pictures as a threat.

The corners of Cheng Qi’s mouth curled up.

Sometimes, he felt quite pitiful. Falling in love with such a dangerous girl, he was afraid of losing his life anytime and anywhere.

—

At the reception desk of a hostel.

A passenger wearing a black winter coat walked in and knocked on the desk at the reception desk. He said in a low voice, “Are they here?”

The receptionist nodded. “They’re here.”

“Very good. Follow my instructions. I’ll transfer two million yuan into your card after the job is done.” The passenger’s voice was low and hoarse, as if he had been injured. His voice was like the creaking of dried old pine branches, extremely ear-piercing.

The waiter was an honest-looking middle-aged man. His fingers were slightly trembling as he asked in a low voice, “W-What if the police investigate later...”

“This is a snowy mountain, and danger lurks everywhere.” The passenger sneered. “Regardless of whether Cheng Qi froze to death, starved to death, got lost, or got food poisoning, these are all accidents.”

Under the temptation of a huge amount of money, the waiter finally nodded in agreement.

This time, the black-shirted passenger received an order from the United States to get rid of the Young Master Cheng who was in the way.

Just as the black-shirted passenger was about to turn around and leave, a sweet voice drifted over. “Hello, do you have cucumber-flavored potato chips here?”
