In which the System Torments the Protagonists: My Wife is My Life! - Chapter 61

Chapter 61 – How shameless can you be? (2)

“I’m almost back to full health, but it’s a long story. I’ll explain it to you later. I called you to ask about something else.”

“… Okay, what do you want to say?”

Lu Lixing went straight to the point. “I heard that a higher up in Tianyu Entertainment is interfering in Ji Qingqing and Shen Weiwei’s matter. Who is it?”

The person on the other side didn’t expect that Lu Lixing’s first call after recovering from his injuries would be about two insignificant actresses. Thinking back about the recents events, he vaguely remembered hearing about this.

“There is something going on between Ji Qingqing and Shen Weiwei… As for who interfered, I’m not sure. I would have to check on it.”

“After you find out who’s interfering, you don’t have to call me back. Just stop that person. Let Ji Qingqing handle the matter between her and Shen Weiwei as she likes. Don’t interfere.

Chen Shuyi was Lu Lixing’s childhood friend and former classmate. They were good friends that had grown up together. As such, they had a good understanding of each other. Chen Shuyi had never seen his friend playing hero for a woman. So, why had he specially called him today to solve a minor issue for an insignificant actress?

And, if he was remembering correctly, this actress only had a pretty face. Public opinion was against her, and she had no other good points.

Even though there were many questions that Chen Shuyi wanted to ask, he didn’t ask any of them. He understood that Lu Lixing didn’t like people that pried.

“Sure, I’ll fix this for you.”

After hanging up the phone, Lu Lixing looked at Ji Qingqing. “Chen Shuyi is the vice president of Tianyu Entertainment.”

Ji Qingqing was relieved.

This issue originally wouldn’t be too troublesome, but it was a thorny problem. The main problem was that a higher upper at Tiangyu Entertainment wanted to protect Shen Weiwei. As a small actress, she didn’t have any power or authority. If she offended a higher up in Tianyu Entertainment, it was obvious that her future in Tianyu Entertainment wouldn’t be good.

Since there was a nearby thigh, it would be a waste to not hug it. Saving her dignity now would only mean she would have to use that dignity to kneel and wipe Shen Weiwei’s shoes in the future.

Smiling, Ji Qingqing said, “Mr. Lu, thank you.”

Lu Lixing’s head was lowered to look at a document. He didn’t look up. “If you really want to thank me, stay on your side of the bed tonight.”

“…”

Ji Qingqing’s smile immediately disappeared.

Such a boring guy.

Right after Lu Lixing ended the call, Chen Shuyi sent his assistant to investigate the matter as well as bringing over Ji Qingqing’s information for him to look at.

A single glance was enough to see that Ji Qingqing’s reputation was unwarranted. She was just an empty shell.

It wasn’t a big deal that she had only made it to a third-tier status after being in the entertainment industry for the past few years. The key issue was that Ji Qingqing had offended practically everyone in the entertainment circle.

Not only had she incurred the enmity of other stars’ fans and bribed her way into roles, she didn’t control her temper on sets and quarreled with directors. If there wasn’t a video to prove her innocence against Shen Weiwei, she would have been doomed.

How did such a woman catch Lu Lixing’s interest?

Why did Lu Lixing like her?

Was his brain damaged from his car accident?

“Vice President Chen, I investigated that matter you requested. Miss Ji and Miss Shen’s matter had been followed up by Director Zhou, but he went away on a business trip. Assistant Director Li is the one currently handling this matter.”

Assistant Director Li…

Chen Shuyi contemplated for a moment, then he dialed a number.

“Assistant Director Li, you’ve been following up on Ji Qingqing and Shen Weiwei’s matter?”
