Lu Weixi had to wait a considerable amount of time for Xue Feifei to finish her makeup.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After the incident in the makeup room, the makeup artist dare not neglect Xue Feifei any longer. Essentially, she would begin applying makeup the moment Xue Feifei arrived.

However, when the makeup artist saw Lu Weixi, she was taken aback, assuming she was a new extra, she politely refused her with a shake of the head.

Later, Huang Mi and Director Zhao arrived one after the other. They seemed indifferent when they saw Lu Weixi, who did not meddle in Xue Feifei’s affairs but instead stood at a distance with Xue Feifei’s assistant, observing from afar.

The last to arrive was Xiang Yirou, who showed up quite late. A luxury vehicle stopped at the entrance, and three or four assistants accompanied her out of the vehicle. Some were carrying her bags, some poured her water, and there was even one specifically assigned to touch up her makeup. The last to emerge was the driver of the car.

As she made her entrance, the people around her greeted her enthusiastically, addressing her as “Teacher Xiang” and “Sister Xiang”. It was a stark contrast to how Xue Feifei had been mostly ignored when she first arrived.

Xiang Yirou remained composed, barely acknowledging the fawning greetings from those around her with a faint nod. However, her collected demeanor quickly cracked once she stepped inside.

Because she had noticed Lu Weixi standing next to Xue Feifei.

While others had no clue who Lu Weixi was, she knew all too well. This woman was Qin Zhiyou’s current partner! Favored by him more than herself, more than Liu Yiyi, she was the woman he took to formal gatherings and banquets, not just purchasing large quantities of domains for her but also introducing her to his circle of friends. Unlike when he brought Yirou to functions, where she was obviously only a lucky charm, he truly valued Lu Weixi, even daring to stand up to his own cousins (Fang Rushuang and Cai Yiren) for her sake.

Moreover, during the last charity banquet, Lu Weixi nonchalantly donated three hundred thousand without a blink, she must be a rich second-generation. It was known that most celebrities’ donations were corporate actions; very few would directly donate from their own pockets.Was Lu Weixi friends with Xue Feifei? And if so, was it possible that Xue Feifei managed to join the cast by using Lu Weixi’s connection with Qin Zhiyou?

Soon, her suspicions were confirmed when Yu Sixing arrived as well. He looked indifferent to everyone else but immediately showed surprise when his eyes met Lu Weixi’s, “How come you’re here?”

Oddly enough, Lu Weixi also looked surprised to see Yu Sixing.

But while Lu Weixi’s surprise was genuine, Yu Sixing’s was feigned.

It was Xue Feifei, who reluctantly explained in a low voice, “He came yesterday. He’s an investor for this film and came to check on the progress. Also, Director Zhao asked him for more funding yesterday, so he needs to observe for a couple more days to see if it’s worth continuing the investment.”

Lu Weixi knew too well that Director Zhao was a spendthrift, constantly asking investors for more money. Of course, some investments turn a profit, some result in losses but are award-winning potentials, while others neither win awards nor recoup the investment.

Given the recent tough times in the film industry, it made sense for Yu Sixing to be cautious with his investments.

The main issue was, he and Xue Feifei pretended not to know each other. Those in the crew who knew of their relationship could be counted on one hand, so Lu Weixi didn’t realize it for a moment.
