Chapter 131

The next morning, Qin Wei took a car to the photography studio again, sleeping all the way there. When the car stopped, Li Yao shook her violently to barely open her eyes.

Li Yao walked behind her, pressing both hands on her shoulders and shaking her again:

"There will be shooting later, wake up, Your Majesty! You don't look good in this state. No matter how beautifully Little Yan does your make-up, it will be useless!"

Qin Wei knew to perfunctorily nod her head. She thought that usually during training, she could sleep by eleven at the latest, but yesterday during the break, all kinds of filming and interviews kept her busy until one in the morning.

She went home at three in the morning and hazily slept until Li Yao called her repeatedly at six to wake her up.

And now it wasn't even eight yet...

No wonder she couldn't liven up.

...

After putting on make-up and changing into the new dress that the sponsor brand father had sent, Qin Wei followed the staff to the photography studio.

The sponsor brand father was so nice. As soon as he heard that the cover theme of this issue was retro style, he provided her with a black dress and white pearl jewelry.

Qin Wei secretly asked Li Yao:

"Do we need to pay for these?"

Li Yao looked at her as if she were silly:

"It would be good enough if they don't ask us for money!"

Qin Wei grinned. As long as she didn’t have to pay out of her own pocket, everything was good.

When she arrived at the photography studio, Qiao Sixiao was already there, wearing an off-the-shoulder dress with her hair tied up, and a silver crown studded with crystals on her head.

It looked quite valuable, but also very beautiful.

At the moment, the stylist was doing the final touch-up on her. She turned her head and happened to see Qin Wei.

Qin Wei smiled at her warmly in greeting, then walked over.

Qiao Sixiao retracted her gaze. While looking at her, she said:

"Sponsored by a brand? You finally look a bit decent."

The thought of having a nice chat with her was immediately dashed. Qin Wei rolled her eyes at her and turned her head away.

It took two hours for the pre- and post-shooting, but since it wasn’t the first time the two had collaborated, they worked quite harmoniously. Plus Qiao Sixiao was very experienced, so she guided Qin Wei along, making the whole process smoother.

"Teachers, thank you for your hard work. Please take a short break before we start the livestream."

Livestream?

Qin Wei slowly shuffled over to sit next to Li Yao, and said in a voice as tiny as a mosquito’s:

"Li Yao..."

Li Yao replied in an equally small voice:

"What's up..." Qin Wei frowned and said in an even smaller voice:

"You said there would be interviews, why did it change to livestream? You didn't tell me it was going to be a livestream..."

But Li Yao was indifferent:

"Nowadays magazines don’t rely entirely on traditional print media to survive! They have their own platforms. They invite celebrities to attract more traffic... What's so strange about that?" Qin Wei argued:

"Wasn't last night an interview?"

Li Yao justified himself arrogantly:

"Because last night it really was for print media..."

Qin Wei: "..."

...

On careful thought, this was already the third time doing a livestream with Qiao Sixiao...

Qin Wei repeatedly told herself that viewers would get tired of seeing them together again and again and again. Then their "ship-baiting" could end.

When they entered the livestream room, the stream had already started. As usual, they prepared to introduce themselves, but the host stopped them preemptively:

"Teachers, wait a minute first. We’ll start a little differently for the viewers in the livestream room this time. Next, you’ll introduce each other instead."

Live comments——

【The host is so thoughtful! She gets us!】

【They're dressed as if going to a wedding】

【Going to their own wedding】

...

The host asked Qiao Sixiao to go first, lest Qin Wei cause the situation to get out of control with her random improvisations.

Qiao Sixiao glanced at Qin Wei and said:

"Sitting next to me is my...fellow artiste, Qin Wei. Like me, she is currently filming the TV series Sisters Sailing Against the Wind. We will both try our best to present a better work to everyone."

After she finished, Qin Wei continued:

"The person sitting next to me is my lifelong rival, Qiao Sixiao."

Qiao Sixiao: "?"

Live comments——

【Didn't expect Qin Wei to know this term too. But netizens were just joking around. It doesn't seem appropriate for her to say it out loud. Qiao Qiao must feel very awkward...】

【Their relationship was bad before anyway. Now it should just be joking around, right?】

【You overestimate Qin Jie. How could she joke around? She's just silly...】

Qiao Sixiao picked up the mic again and looked at Qin Wei:

"I feel one word needs to change to be more accurate."

【Love!】

【Love+1】

【Love, love, love!】

...

Looking into Qiao Sixiao’s eyes, Qin Wei pondered briefly before suddenly having an epiphany. She clapped her hands and confidently said: "Water!"

Qiao Sixiao: "?"

The host was also a bit confused and asked:

"Lifelong water? Vivi, could you explain what you mean?"

"The classic fragrance from the perfume brand endorsed by Teacher Qiao is called ‘Water of Life’. Teacher Qiao is truly dedicated to promote brands creatively!"

Qin Wei admired herself—she understood Qiao Sixiao’s implied meaning so quickly. If it were someone else, they might not have such strong improvisation skills!

Last time with Dior, if Qiao Sixiao hadn't helped, she might not have done so well as their brand ambassador either. Promoting for Qiao a bit today could also be considered returning her a favor.

Live comments——

【Shocking, dear family members! If Qin Jie doesn't stay single all her life, her EQ would have gone to waste...】

【Qiao Qiao is stunned】

【Let me be honest, sisters. As her shipper I must get that so-called Water of Life!】

【Me too...】

【Me too...】

【Even the brand father is shocked...What a windfall!】

【 Sold out on the official website in two minutes...VivQiao shippers are so powerful...】

【Should the brand father consider having VivQiao cp film an ad for their next product...】

...

The host continued asking:

"Let’s chat about what you two have been up to lately! Qiao Qiao, we all know your current schedule basically alternates between the variety show and the drama set. Do you feel tired from that?"

Qiao Sixiao smiled and shook her head:

"Actually, I’m already used to this kind of pace, so I wouldn't say it's tiring. Besides, I enjoy filming and I’m enjoying being on stage at the moment as well. Physical fatigue can be endured as long as I regulate myself."

There was a hint of admiration in the host's expression. After all, Qiao Sixiao had persisted in such a high-intensity workload for many years, which ordinary people would find hard to adapt to.

The host then asked:

"What about you, Vivi? What have you been up to lately? Can you share something with everyone?"

Compared to Qiao Sixiao, Qin Wei then realized how relaxed she was with just those few jobs, yet still grumbling about how tiring they were. She really felt ashamed.

Suddenly Qiao Sixiao spoke on her behalf:

"From what I know, she just became the ambassador of a sports brand. I saw the announcement last night and thought it looked good overall, quite worth learning from."

Live comments——

【Is Qiao Qiao talking about the announcement from HugoV? Let me copy the pics for sisters who haven't seen it. Go check it out yourselves after the stream ends!】

【HugoV: Together with our brand ambassador @QinWei_Vivian, let's help HugoV fulfill every child's dream of rural youth sports, so that all children can #have intelligence and physique scores of 100#. Let's move together with @QinWei_Vivian and donate steps. See website for details [link]】

【Sports goose still looks amazing!】

...

The host followed up:

"Any plans for filming TV shows or movies recently then? Fans have been quite concerned about this."

None at all...
