Chapter 232: Health is the most Important
Chapter 232
Qiao Sixiao initially offered her own phone, but then hesitated and took it back.
"If it\'s about catching up on the strange serialization from the past week, you might want to think twice..."
"Just give it to me!"
Qin Wei gave her a disdainful look and snatched Qiao Sixiao\'s phone with her right hand, opening the trending page.
Naturally, today\'s hot topics were related to the star-studded evening party, and the main trending topic concerning Qin Wei herself was her injury.
Scrolling further, she was more concerned about the internet being cut off for nearly a week and what had actually happened.
#Qin Wei Military Training#
That one was normal.
#Qin Wei Braised Pork#
#Qin Wei Standing in Military Posture#
#Qin Wei on the Front Line#
#Qin Wei Sneaking Eggs#
...
This is bizarre...
It seemed that the fans were right. The ordinary military training footage from the school had caught the attention of many people.
Qin Wei felt a headache coming on, but she couldn\'t free up her hands to rub her temples.
She dared not read the comments anymore and looked up at Li Yao.
"Has there been any negative impact?"
"No, not at all."
Li Yao replied without hesitation. After their military training videos were uploaded online, the popularity indeed soared. Initially, for a day or two, both Li Yao and the company were surprised and anxious. However, they later found out that Qin Wei performed very well. Not only that, she also brought some surprises to everyone.
Knowing that the school hadn\'t taken down the videos after learning about the matter, they even reposted them on their official social media accounts, managing them carefully. So, there was no need for the company to worry anymore.
It happened to be the time when the company was worried about not having enough material from her. Sending out sporadic updates wouldn\'t be enough to sustain such an extended military training period.
Moreover, Anxing, the small company, had been developing well recently, and there were too many things that needed attention from top to bottom. Since there was someone who could generate popularity and actively manage it, it was a good thing for everyone.
As for Qin Wei being unaware of this, it didn\'t matter even if she was anxious. The military strictly adhered to discipline, and since she was currently in the stage of a new recruit after the reforms, any matters regarding her participation in the evening party had to be relayed through others. It was simply impossible to directly inform her.
Therefore, Xu Mingchuan had an open mind. He said that they would tell her when they met in person, and there was no need to pay too much attention to it.
Qin Wei breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had restrained herself after seeing the cameras. Besides, there was no need to worry too much. Since she had already been injured like this, she could apply to withdraw from the military training with the school.
After all, it was an accident, and it wasn\'t her fault.
"Li Yao, can you send an email to the school now and apply for my withdrawal from the military training? Someone told me that injuries from the military training in the previous years can be used as an uncontrollable factor, and there\'s no need to make up for it next year.
For the sake of my health, I\'d rather withdraw."
"Sure."
Li Yao readily took out his phone and started composing the email. He wrote a few sincere sentences, and in the end, he attached the medical diagnosis report before sending it to the school.
Li Yao made the decision to quit, although it wasn\'t exactly what he had hoped for. With gains come losses. This way, the production team wouldn\'t need to postpone the training for her, and many activities during this period could proceed as planned.
"Great job! Your wording is appropriate, and you have solid arguments. The school won\'t reject it."
As Li Yao spoke, he opened the itinerary.
"We don\'t have to wake up too early tomorrow morning, attend the business conference in the afternoon, then return to the capital. We\'ll have a photoshoot for makeup in the evening..."
Li Yao continued reading the schedule, while Qin Wei sighed and looked at Qiao Sixiao. Both of them wore expressions of helplessness.
"Maybe military training would be easier..."
Qin Wei strongly agreed with this idea.
...
As they approached the hotel where the evening banquet was held, they could see the brightly lit and bustling scene from a distance. The production team had booked the best local hotel, which had a spacious banquet hall, magnificent decorations, and exquisite cold dishes.
A few people got out of the car, and the hotel manager personally welcomed them and led the way. Inside the banquet hall, groups of people were chatting together. They were all well-known figures in the industry.
"Xiao Qiao, long time no see~"
An actress walked over and greeted Qiao Sixiao warmly, pulling her into a conversation. Qin Wei, realizing that she didn\'t know this person, used it as an excuse to walk to the side and head towards the table with food to satisfy her hunger.
Since it was a cold banquet, the food was placed on the table for self-service. For Qin Wei, who only had the use of one hand, it was undoubtedly a challenge.
How troublesome...
Unfortunately, she couldn\'t bring her assistant in, and Li Yao had been dealing with various missed calls since they got off the plane. He had said he would join them in a few minutes.
With no one to help and not wanting to appear too inelegant, Qin Wei swallowed her saliva and decided to wait until Li Yao arrived before eating.
Just as she was about to leave, a hand appeared, holding a plate of food in front of her.
On the plate was a small piece of salmon, two thin slices of salami, and a small piece of toast.
Not only that, a silver fork was thoughtfully placed on the plate, waiting for Qin Wei to pick it up and enjoy her meal.
"Is it for me?"
Qin Wei asked while looking up and instinctively took a step back, seemingly surprised by the person\'s presence.
"Shen Kai... Mister Shen?"
Indeed, the person standing beside her, holding the plate, was Shen Kai.
Shen Kai nodded, then hesitated for a moment, took back the plate, picked up the table knife placed on the table, carefully cut off the edges of the toast, and handed it to her again.
"Forget that you don\'t eat the crust."
"It\'s such a waste not to eat it. Should I toss it or feed it to the dogs?"
Qin Wei muttered.
After hearing her words, Shen Kai\'s face darkened significantly.
But he quickly regained his composure.
"You don\'t have to be so polite to me. You can eat it yourself. My manager will be here soon, and I\'ll ask him to assist me."
As the two stood together, they attracted some sidelong glances. Qin Wei felt embarrassed and feared that it might lead to gossip.
Just as she was about to leave, Shen Kai called her back.
"Everyone here is from the industry. They can control their tongues and know what to say and what not to say. Qin Wei, you don\'t have to avoid me like this. Our relationship isn\'t that bad."
There was some truth to his words.
Upon further reflection, Qin Wei realized that although this guy had repeatedly suppressed her due to emotional entanglements, he had also apologized before and had often lent her a helping hand, offering her assistance.
Although she couldn\'t say for sure whether she forgave him or not...
What he did, indeed helped her a lot, and it was only right and proper to express her gratitude both emotionally and logically.
She wasn\'t heartless or ungrateful, but keeping her distance from him was also a way to protect herself.
After all, words can be dangerous, and this person had once abused his authority to bully her as a weakling.
Looking at his sincere eyes, Qin Wei hesitated and raised her hand.
"Well then, you\'re welcome..."
"Qin Wei."
Upon hearing the voice, Qiao Sixiao turned around and walked over, holding a tray.
"Eat this."
Steamed egg with shrimp, tuna and cucumber rolls, mango pudding.
"Sweetie, you\'re here too!"
Before Qiao Sixiao could approach, Qin Wei found a lifeline and left first, leaving the two of them behind.
Even a fool could sense that Qiao Sixiao was someone who used to cause trouble, and neither of them would enjoy the food he offered...
Shen Kai: "..."
Unable to stop Qin Wei from leaving, Shen Kai looked at Qiao Sixiao and expressed his discontent with his eyes.
But Qiao Sixiao wasn\'t bothered, standing in front of Shen Kai and calmly started eating the steamed egg with shrimp.
"It\'s high in calories."
Shen Kai kindly reminded him.
Others may not know, but he was aware that He Hong had strict requirements for artists, sometimes even harsh, although he had never interacted with Qiao Sixiao before, he had heard about her self-discipline.
As for these dishes for dinner, she wouldn\'t eat them at all.
"It\'s okay to indulge once in a while."
Qiao Sixiao said, her gaze falling on the tray in his hand.
"You think using this little bit of food to please her, Mr. Shen, your calculations are off."
"She usually eats this."
Shen Kai looked down at the thin two slices of sausage and a few other things, convinced that it wasn\'t about the food but rather Qin Wei harboring deep resentment towards him.
"She eats just this..."
Qiao Sixiao didn\'t know what to say for a moment.
"Do you not want to spend time alone with me,"
Shen Kai looked at her and suddenly said,
"Is it because you don\'t trust me?"
