Indulging Mrs. Lu

Chapter 532 - 530: Changing the Male Lead Again?!

"Speak slower..."

Xiao Qing’s words were interrupted as her phone was suddenly snatched away. She watched, wide-eyed, as the man a head taller than her pressed her phone to his ear.

"My wife is doing well, thank you for your concern."

On the other side of the call, Yang Zi heard a strange voice; before he could react, the call was disconnected.

Yang Zi stared at the disconnected call in disbelief, then he quickly dialed another number.

As soon as the call connected, Yang Zi spoke: "Why didn’t you tell me Xiao Qing and Lu Jinyang are back together again?"

A lazy voice came through, it was Yang Qiao’s voice.

She said, "I’m overseas, you’re here, yet you still ask me about such a trivial matter?"

Yang Zi was at a loss for words.

"Was she saved by Lu Jinyang?"

"Yeah, when I called just now, Lu Jinyang answered, and from the sound of Xiao Qing’s voice, she doesn’t seem to be majorly impacted."

Yang Qiao said, "Then that settles it. Younger brother, you can’t win her back, better start looking for someone else."

"...I’m going to sleep, goodnight."

After hanging up, Yang Zi clenched his phone in his palm, a trace of melancholy in his eyes.

His interest in Xiao Qing wasn’t romantic; it stemmed from their professional collaboration, compounded by the relationship between her brother and Yang Qiao...

But what bothered him was Yang Qiao’s last comment.

She said: better start looking for someone else~

He has thought about changing his focus, but he can’t let go of that person in his heart, so there’s nothing he can do.

Thinking of that woman, Yang Zi turned on his phone, found Ning Mo’s number and hesitated for a long time without pressing it.

The last time they met was during the New City Entertainment party, and once again they parted on bad terms.

Not sure why he thought of it, Yang Zi put down his phone, turned off the light, and went to sleep.

The next day, Xiao Qing went to the film set and didn’t see Gu Li.

She dialed Gu Li’s number, and the phone rang nearly twenty times without answer.

Wasn’t everything fine when they talked last night?

As she was wondering, a slender figure hurriedly ran towards her, stopping in front of her, panting, "Qing sister, sorry... I just went to the headquarters."

"Headquarters?" Xiao Qing frowned slightly, "Is there another change happening there?"

Gu Li shook her head, then nodded immediately. "I received a sudden notification that the male lead will be replaced by someone from outside the industry."

What... What?!

"Another change of the male lead?!" Xiao Qing immediately felt uneasy.

Fucking hell, she knew she shouldn’t have listened to Xiao Anze’s advice to develop her career here.

It’s been almost two months, and not only had she not managed to shoot one film, but each film requires a change of the male lead; if she hadn’t known New City Entertainment was a legitimate company, she’d have thought that filming here was just for play.

Gathering her thoughts, Xiao Qing resignedly asked, "Do you know who the new male lead is?"

Gu Li shook her head.

"God!" Xiao Qing looked despairingly at the sky, "The new male lead is an outsider, does that mean there will be more changes to the male lead after this?"

Facing such a situation, Gu Li also felt helpless, only managing to reassure her, "Don’t worry, the company won’t mess around."

But recalling the expression on Gu Chen’s face when he mentioned this to her, he felt uncertain again.

"Xiao Qing~"

A male voice came from behind her, Xiao Qing turned around and saw Yang Zi approaching them.

"Yang Zi! What is this..." Xiao Qing saw the bag behind him and hesitated.

Yang Zi appeared nonchalant, "I received a notification this morning that the male lead is being changed. I’ll start shooting another movie from today."
