"No, listen to my explanation. The sponsor of the movie pulled out before, and the filming was on the verge of a halt. So I found a new sponsor. I don't know why the director decided to revise the script after the change of sponsor."
Qin Qiao'er explained very sincerely. However, she still concealed Zhao Youting's name in this explanation. She felt that she couldn't easily disclose Zhao Youting's name for the time being.
She instinctively hid some key information. Maybe subconsciously, she didn't think Li Moli was particularly reliable.
Although Qin Qiao'er explained so sincerely, Li Moli was still enraged after hearing her explanation. She thought Qin Qiao'er was just perfunctorily trying to fool her.
Li Moli suddenly laughed out of anger. "Fine, you don't want to say it, right? Anyway, I believe everyone can see the sordid relationship between you and the director."
Qin Qiao'er felt that Li Moli's constant slandering of the director made her feel extremely sorry for him. Clearly, there was nothing between her and the director, yet she always seemed to be causing trouble for him.
"I really have nothing to do with the director. I've said that there's someone else who helped me, but he didn't interfere with the filming of this movie at all." Qin Qiao'er still maintained an outward calm at this moment.
Li Moli pressed on. "Who?" She finally seemed to have caught a crucial piece of information, but after that, Qin Qiao'er simply refused to say another word.
Finally, Qin Qiao'er just said, "I'm sorry for accidentally taking your role this time. I hope you won't involve other innocent people. If you want to resent me, you can go ahead."
Qin Qiao'er had given up on explaining at this point. She felt that no matter what she said, Li Moli wouldn't listen. Seeing Qin Qiao'er's seemingly nonchalant attitude, Li Moli got even angrier.
It was as if she was the only one acting in this one - person show. She still couldn't expose Qin Qiao'er's disguise, which made her feel rather deflated.
Finally, Li Moli took out her trump card. She took out a stack of photos from her bag. The photos were exactly those that were exposed in the news of Qin Qiao'er entering the director's bedroom.
Qin Qiao'er was shocked and terrified when she saw these photos. "How did these photos end up in your hands! Did you send someone to secretly take pictures of me?"
Li Moli nodded complacently. "Yes, it was me. I just wanted to catch you in the act. I never believed there could be someone like you in the entertainment industry.
I've disliked you from the very beginning. You not only took my role, but everyone in the crew seems to have been bribed by you. I don't know why they like you so much.
I'm the only one who has seen through your disguise. You're not as innocent and harmless as you appear. Sure enough, you got into this crew through connections."
Li Moli sneered again after speaking. "Look at your current expression. This is your true face, isn't it? Don't stare at me like that. I'm just uncovering your true self.
Alright, now there are only the two of us in this makeup room. You don't need to be so nervous. You can completely relax. I've told you what I've done. Why don't you show me your true self?"
A sense of betrayal welled up in Qin Qiao'er's heart. She never thought that it was Li Moli who had secretly taken pictures of her. She had always regarded Li Moli as a good friend in the crew.
Now when she thought about all the little things they had shared, she felt a surge of hatred. She had whole - heartedly treated Li Moli, but this was how Li Moli repaid her.
She had previously thought of many possibilities about who had taken those pictures. The most likely scenario she had imagined was that a paparazzi had sneaked into their crew.
Qin Qiao'er never thought that it was the person she regarded as her closest friend who had done this.
Li Moli's words really hit Qin Qiao'er hard. They shattered her heart into pieces, and she didn't know how their relationship had turned out like this.
At this moment, Qin Qiao'er remembered Li Fanjin's warning to her. At that time, Li Fanjin had told her to be careful of Li Moli, but she hadn't listened.
She often had arguments with Li Fanjin because of Li Moli. Now, looking back, she realized she had been too naive, thinking that what she saw on the surface was the whole truth.
Qin Qiao'er thought that after going through so many things, she could tell who was sincere and who was false. But with Li Moli, she had taken such a big fall.
Qin Qiao'er was so angry that she was trembling all over. Seeing Qin Qiao'er like this, Li Moli felt a sense of relief. Finally, she could suppress Qin Qiao'er once.
"Does it feel good to be a mistress? Were you flirting with the director in the crew? You thought others were stupid and couldn't see your affair?"
Li Moli's words provoked Qin Qiao'er so much that her blood rushed to her head. She couldn't tolerate Li Moli talking about the director like this. In Qin Qiao'er's heart, the director had always been a person who was very dedicated to his works.
She didn't want the hard - worked - on works of the director to be misunderstood as just a movie made to promote someone.
Qin Qiao'er suddenly raised her hand and then brought it down hard, slapping Li Moli across the face.
Actually, when Li Moli saw Qin Qiao'er's emotions getting out of control, she had been on guard against her. But in her heart, she really hoped that Qin Qiao'er would do something to her.
Yes, the main reason Li Moli invited Qin Qiao'er to the makeup room this time was that she hoped the surveillance camera could record what happened between her and Qin Qiao'er.
She hoped to make this surveillance footage public so that the whole world could see Qin Qiao'er's true face.
However, at first, Qin Qiao'er had been trying to explain herself and had never mentioned the real truth. Even until now, Qin Qiao'er still refused to let it out.
