Chapter 14: A Basin of Dirty Water

Previous Chapter

Momo's gaze wiped over the photo of the two on the bright red invitation.

In the photo, Gu Muchu and Jiang Xiaoxiao leaned on their heads, intimate, and she was just about to withdraw her gaze, but she saw Jiang Duoqing wearing a wedding ring on her ring finger.

"You're married?"

Jiang Duoqing's face sank instantly: "I asked you if you would go to Mr. Gu and Xiaoxiao's wedding, who asked you to change the topic!" ”

"No, no."

"That's good."

Momo wanted to leave.

"Miss Jiang, I still have a play to play, go in first."

She was just about to turn around, but she heard Jiang Duoqing say: "Ms. Xia, you should know that the entertainment industry in City A is my Jiang family, so you'd better be polite to me, otherwise, you may not even be able to play a supporting actress." ”

Momo didn't dare to move.

No one knows Jiang Duoqing better than her, when she is alone, she can spare her life, and in the same way, if anyone is targeted by her, she will die a miserable death.

"I don't know if Miss Jiang has anything else to explain?"

"Stay away from Mr. Gu and Xiaoxiao." Saying that, Jiang Duoqing raised his feet and crushed the handkerchief that wiped his hands and crushed it, "Smile and have a good temper, even if you are cheap, she is willing to miss the old love, but I am different, you know, I am ruthless, I can do anything!" ”

“……”

Jiang turned around in a dashing manner, walked two steps, turned his head again, and said with a smile: "Ms. Xia, in order to celebrate your return to China, I specially prepared a generous gift for you, no accident, you should receive it tomorrow." ”

Back to the car, Xiao Xianrou rubbed up impatiently: "Madam, I'm doing a good job, right?" ”

"Go and knock on the side of Mr. Qin, and say that the Jiang family and the Jiang family can't wait too long."

"Yes, ma'am."

That night, Momo didn't sleep very well, I don't know if it was because she bumped into someone she didn't want to bump into, and when she woke up, the time passed nine o'clock.

She just got up, and the little fish that finished delivering the rolls rushed into the door: "I'm so angry!" ”

Momo smiled: "Early in the morning, who is so short-sighted and provokes you?" ”

"It's not that cheeky Jiang Xiaoxiao yet!" Xiaoyu poked the mobile phone screen in front of her, "Look at it, what hot search she bought herself!" ”

Momo leaned back, and her eyes fell on the headline of a certain blog: a real phoenix and a feathered chicken.

The picture is a set of comparative photos, on the left is Jiang Xiaoxiao, who won the award at Paris Fashion Week, and on the right is Xia Momo, who is covered with egg liquid, and a long essay of at least 3,000 words is attached to the picture.

She glanced at the long article that praised Jiang Xiaoxiao, and then focused on the comments of the melon-eating masses.

"He is worthy of being the most handsome, elegant and wealthy Mr. Gu in City A, with a first-class eye, compared to his ex-wife who was kicked out of the Xia family, Miss Jiang is more worthy of him."

She just read it, and Xiaoyu was already so angry that she took back her phone.

"What kind of real phoenix is she Jiang Xiaoxiao? However, an illegitimate daughter of the Jiang family is embarrassed to buy this kind of hot search to wash herself white, is she really not afraid of being exposed to the truth? ”

Momo shook her head, didn't say much, she turned around and went into the bathroom to wash her face, then brushed her hair, walked out of the hotel, and rushed to the crew.

That hot search is most likely not Jiang Xiaoxiao's handiwork, but Jiang Duoqing's homecoming gift.

After entering the crew, Momo's footsteps stopped, and the people on the set were not busy filming, but they gathered together, not knowing what they were talking about.

Before she could figure out what was going on, Qin Xiaodie's agent rushed over like crazy and dragged her forward.

"Director Guo, the surname Xia is here!"

The crowd quickly dispersed, and they all turned their heads to look at her, and Momo saw clearly that it was Qin Xiaodie who was surrounded.

One of her cheeks was swollen like a red steamed bun.

The agent pointed to Qin Xiaodie's red and swollen face angrily and asked Momo: "The surname is Xia, look at what you have done, just because of you, my baby's face is ruined!" ”

Momo's face sank: "Don't plant it indiscriminately!" ”

"You say I'm planting?" The agent immediately shouted, "Director Guo, producer, screenwriter...... You all come to judge, did your surname Xia Di beat my baby to cry yesterday? ”

No one spoke on the set, but their eyes were full of doubts about Momo.

She turned her head to look at Qin Xiaodie: "Miss Qin, you know best whether I hit you hard yesterday!" Please make it clear and don't cause some unnecessary misunderstandings. ”

But Qin Xiaodie just covered her face and lowered her head crying.

Momo's heart couldn't help but fall down.

Seeing that Qin Xiaodie was being bullied, the agent immediately threw himself at Director Guo: "Director Guo, if you don't give Fluttershy justice, then I'll call the police, I still don't believe it, no one in the huge City A calls the shots for Fluttershy!" ”

Director Guo hurriedly persuaded: "Don't be impulsive, we have something to say-"

But Momo directly agreed: "Okay, call the police."

Director Guo, who persuaded peace, took the last word in his mouth and pulled Momo aside hatefully: "Teacher Xia, what do you want to do?" ”

"Call the police."

She didn't know what was going on with Qin Xiaodie's face, but if someone wanted to frame her, she still had a number, and calling the police might be the best solution.

"You dare?!" Director Guo glared, "Xia Momo, if it weren't for the bad things between you and Ouyang Hao, "Marriage Before Love" would have started filming a long time ago!" Now that the drama can finally be filmed, do you want to make the crew stop work again? ”

"I-"

"What are you!" Enraged, Director Guo doesn't give Momo a chance to speak, "Teacher Xia, first of all, you must immediately apologize to Fluttershy and ask for her forgiveness. ”

"Director Guo, I can't apologize until the matter is clear."

Seeing that Momo refused to retreat, Director Guo laughed angrily: "So, Teacher Xia is about to breach the contract?" ”

"What?"

"Teacher Xia injured the face of the heroine Qin Xiaodie, causing her to be unable to act for a period of time, which seriously affected the progress of the crew, which is a breach of contract."

Momo was laughed at by the unreasonable Guo Dao.

"Director Guo, whether I injured Qin Xiaodie remains to be investigated, if you have to convict me of breach of contract, then you should call the police!"

Director Guo's eyes became very cold in a blink of an eye: "It is worthy of Mr. Xia, who is the backbone of Mr. Gu, and his words are hard." However, I would like to remind Mr. Xia that it takes time for the police to investigate a case, and even if it turns out that Mr. Xia didn't hurt Fluttershy, you won't be able to escape the breach of contract. ”

The clay man still has three points of anger, and Momo couldn't hold back his anger for the first time, so he scolded back: "Director Guo, don't deceive people too much!" ”

But these words made Director Guo smile: "Teacher Xia, first, every clause on the contract is clearly written in black and white, and second, the contract was voluntarily signed by Mr. Xia's agent."

So, no one is bullying you.

I asked Mr. Xia to apologize, I was originally helping Mr. Xia, but obviously, Mr. Xia didn't appreciate it. ”

It's not that she doesn't appreciate it, but she knows too well that this apology can't be said, and once she does, it is tantamount to admitting in disguise that she deliberately hurt Qin Xiaodie's face.

But this concern is insignificant to Director Guo, what he wants is to calm things down and continue filming, as for whether she Xia Momo is dead or alive in the future, it doesn't matter.

"If Mr. Xia insists on not apologizing, then ask Mr. Xia to pay 100 million in liquidated damages, and I will immediately recruit a new actress to replace you."

After saying that, Director Guo stopped talking to her, he turned around and dispersed the crew, and then silently stood by Qin Xiaodie's side and waited for her to make a final decision.

Momo didn't dwell on it for too long, she knew she couldn't admit it, but she couldn't pay the liquidated damages.

"Miss Qin, I'm very sorry."

With tears in her eyes, Qin Xiaodie shook her head gently.

Director Guo coughed secretly twice and reminded Momo to say a few more words, but she could only stubbornly continue: "Miss Qin, I really didn't expect your face to become like this.

I don't think anything is more important than Miss Qin's face now, why don't we go to the hospital for face treatment first, and then talk about something else? ”

Qin Xiaodie lowered her head again.

Momo was a little irritable in her heart, but her face was not obvious.

"Miss Qin, don't worry, no matter how much medical expenses will be spent, I will definitely bear all of them."

The grumpy agent couldn't stand it and yelled, "Surnamed Xia, I know you're rich, but my Fluttershy isn't bad either!" You don't need to show it off again and again! ”

“……”

Seeing that the conversation was about to collapse again, Qin Xiaodie suddenly raised her head: "Teacher Xia, I don't want to blame you, I know that the reason why Teacher Xia is heavy is to present a better dramatic effect." ”

Then, Qin Xiaodie covered her face and bowed to Director Guo very understandingly: "Director Guo, I can't stand it, and I have dragged down the entire crew." ”

When Director Guo heard this, he couldn't hold back his emotion, and reached out to support Qin Xiaodie.

"Fluttershy, don't say that."

Qin Xiaodie looked even more guilty.

"Director Guo, I'm really honored to be able to play your play, but my face has become like this, I'm afraid it will be impossible to recover in a short time.

"Marriage First and Love Later" was finally able to start filming, and it can't be delayed, I suggest that Director Guo change the heroine, or simply let Mr. Xia play the heroine. ”

"How can that work!" Director Guo immediately vetoed, "Fluttershy, your face was injured because of the play, I'm going to kick you away, are you still human?" ”

"But—"

"Don't think about it, I'll go to the investor and ask him to agree to postpone the shooting."

Director Guo gathered everyone together again: "Everyone, Fluttershy is injured and won't be able to act for a while, when will this scene be filmed again, wait for me to know." ”

People, began to disperse.

They whined as they packed their things.

"What do you call this, it's a good show, I waited for half a year to start filming, but after a few weeks of filming, the male protagonist hasn't joined the group yet, so it's stopped again!"

"Alas, it's not, I'm afraid that if I stop this time, I won't be able to shoot it again."

The people who complained secretly glanced at Momo, their eyes looked unfriendly, and it was obvious that the reason for the crew shutdown was all blamed on her alone.

Director Guo was carrying his bag and hurriedly walked out, when he saw Momo standing in place like a fool, and scolded angrily: "Teacher Xia, why are you stunned?" Didn't you say you were going to take Fluttershy to the doctor? ”

"Don't."

The agent immediately covered Qin Xiaodie, "We don't dare to work on Teacher Xia, Fluttershy just hurt one side of her face at this moment, in case Teacher Xia finds a quack, maybe even the other side will be injured." ”

Referring to Sang and scolding Huaiwan's agent, he protected his artist and left quickly.

Director Guo glared at Momo and stopped talking, but in the end he didn't say anything.

On the noisy set, it didn't take long for Momo to be left alone, standing quietly for a long time.

Physically and mentally exhausted, she suddenly wanted to go to kindergarten to see her son.

When she walked to the place, she saw a tall man standing in front of Morris International Kindergarten, and the principal and the homeroom teacher were holding the hand of the curly roll, and politely handed him over to the man.

The man lifted him up happily and laughed happily.

"Summer rolls?!"

The man and the child turned back in unison.

"Gu Muchu?!"

The curly scroll lying on Gu Muchu's shoulder asked in surprise, "Mommy, why are you here?" ”

How did she get here?

If she hadn't come, wouldn't she have been abducted?

Momo was going to argue with the teacher, but Juan Juan saw that her face was angry, and she was so frightened that she yelled at Gu Muchu: "Daddy, run, run-"

"Yes, my son."

Two men, one big and one young, ran wildly on the street, Momo didn't care about any teacher, she just wanted to chase her son back now.

But Gu Muchu's legs were too long, and she couldn't catch up at all.

Juanjuan saw that Momo couldn't catch up with them, and danced happily on Gu Muchu's shoulder: "Daddy is so powerful, Mommy slowly, can't catch up, can't catch up with ......"
