Chapter 229: Fluorescent Night

Chapter 229

Although she had questions she wanted to ask her, it was clearly not the right time. Qiao Sixiao just kept smiling and nodded lightly at her.

"I have a favor to ask Qiao Laoshi. My hand is stuck in my pocket."

Qin Wei pointed to the left pocket of her suit and Qiao Sixiao understood what she meant. She helped pull out her access card and held it up high enough that Qin Wei could see it clearly.

Although they hadn't rehearsed, by now Qin Wei could handle it with ease. After the announcement, the two of them returned backstage, the lights gradually dimming.

As soon as they got backstage, Li Yao came over to meet her. He helped her down the stairs and had his assistant bring a chair for her.

"No need. I'm fine," Qin Wei said.

After stepping off the stairs, Qin Wei signaled to her assistant Li Liang that there was no need to get a chair. Then she saw a staff member come over to discuss with Qin Wei.

"Teacher Qin, after hosting there is also a group song later that you didn't participate in the rehearsal for. I just want to confirm with you if you are still going to perform?"

Qin Wei nodded her head. The staff member also glanced at Qiao Sixiao and said:

"There is still some time before you two need to go back on stage. Why don't you go rest in the dressing room for now?"

Qiao Sixiao didn't object and brought Qin Wei towards the private dressing room that the program team had provided for her.

"Xiao Qiao, Wei Wei!"

Hearing someone calling them, the two turned around to see several reporters walking towards them from not too far away. One of them even waved at them.

That's right. With so many celebrities here tonight, there were reporters randomly interviewing whoever they ran into backstage since it was being broadcasted live. Most celebrities wouldn't refuse unless they were busy, otherwise it would make them seem aloof in front of tens of thousands of online viewers.

"You two ladies look exceptionally beautiful today, such a sight for sore eyes!"

The reporter first showered them with compliments in order to get the interview.

Of course, he genuinely meant it, especially for Qin Wei. He couldn't recall the last time she had such a powerful look from her makeup and styling.

The two politely expressed their thanks. Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m

The reporter then asked, "What happened to Wei Wei's arm? Injured? Does Xiao Qiao know?"

Qin Wei was about to casually say "just a small injury, no big deal." But upon hearing the reporter's question, she froze. Shouldn't he be asking the person herself? How would the other person possibly know?

Unexpectedly, Qiao Sixiao's expression remained calm as she softly uttered two words:

"Sprained it."

Qin Wei: "???"

Qin Wei tilted her head to look at her:

"Huh? Teacher Qiao, this is my arm..."

Seeing her surprised reaction, Qiao Sixiao also pretended to be surprised:

"Oh, isn't that your front leg?"

Qin Wei pointed at her left arm with her right hand:

"Teacher Qiao, am I your dog? Did your company not teach you the art of speaking before your debut?"

Without asking much, Shen Kai simply took off his suit jacket and draped it over her shoulders before walking down the stairs and leaving.

At the time, Qin Wei didn't think too much of it either. She only knew Shen Kai's actions held no malice. Hearing Qiao Sixiao's voice coming from the stage, she quickened her pace and went up.

Thinking back now, it was also thanks to the suit jacket covering up some of it to make her injuries seem not as bad.

...

"I just forgot to return it, okay?"

Faced with Qiao Sixiao's passive aggressive questioning, Qin Wei set the suit jacket aside.

Qiao Sixiao picked up the jacket and walked to the door to get her assistant to take it away before closing the door and sitting at the other end of the sofa with her back facing Qin Wei.

Qin Wei stared blankly for a good while, unsure what Qiao Sixiao was doing with this stunt.

"How are you actually mad??"

Looking at her slender back, Qin Wei didn't know why but she could envision the displeased expression on her face...

"Are you stupid? Or just completely shameless??"

Qiao Sixiao whipped around with a sudden scolding.

She would scold her from time to time but there was always a reason. What had irritated her this time??

Qin Wei's face clearly displayed "I don't understand."

Seeing Qin Wei innocently looking at her, Qiao Sixiao also felt she overreacted a little. Seeing her injuries and considering the situation at the time, Shen Kai's actions were understandable.

It was just that Shen Kai's words to her kept replaying endlessly in her mind.

"Weren't you two clearly separated not long ago, righteously clarifying your relationship to the public? Yet now you dare to walk on stage wearing his jacket. Wouldn't it be a slap in your face if discovered?"

Qiao Sixiao changed the subject. One hand on her forehead and the other pointing at Qin Wei's arm,

"How did you injure your dog leg?"

"Shen Kai's jacket is very lowkey. Don't worry, it can't be seen...

Qiao Sixiao, this is your father's noble arm. Keep calling it a dog leg and I won't be polite with you!"

Seeing Qiao Sixiao about to raise her hand, Qin Wei hurriedly reacted to block her face:

"Let me tell you, there are people constantly coming and going outside. If you dare pinch me, I'll scream loudly for us to go down together and be trending topics for 3 days and nights—

Shocking! Q last name female artist does this out of jealousy over colleague's beauty!"

Qiao Sixiao rolled her eyes at her and looked at her injured arm again:

"How did you hurt it?"

"Twisted it by accident. No big deal, minor injury."

Qiao Sixiao's expression changed:

"A minor injury that requires prescription painkillers? It must hurt a lot..."
