    49: Neighbors on the 15th floor

    The title of the Republic of China drama AV that Qiao Qiao shot earlier was finally decided a few days ago. The road to naming this drama was bumpy and tortuous because it was originally tailor-made for a certain actress. Later, Song Qiyan forcefully assigned it to Qiao Qiao, and the producers have already agreed.group, the script had to be drastically changed because of Zhou Yuanchuan’s “opening the skylight”. The single male protagonist was abruptly changed to two male protagonists, and the ending was forcibly reunited. Therefore, after many battles, the title of the drama was finally determined with difficulty, and the title of the original novel-“Show Mercy” was adopted.

    After the title of the play was confirmed, Qiao Qiao’s publicity work went much smoother. She was now gradually getting used to the intensity of the work, and with the help of the hard-working Fang Tong, the two-week publicity period passed in the blink of an eye, and Qiao Qiao could finally take a breather.

    And the first thing she has to do is to fall asleep in bed!

    Qiao Qiao did exactly that. She took a comfortable hot bath and lit some soothing incense, trying to sleep away all the mental and physical exhaustion of the past few days. So when everything was ready, she closed the curtains, put on an eye mask, and prepared to fall into a deep sleep with maximum comfort.

    All this probably lasted less than ten minutes.

    The sound of loud music and the laughter of girls could be heard faintly through a wall. Qiao Qiao tried hard to endure it for ten minutes. Finally, he took off his blindfold in annoyance, put on his slippers and prepared to go out to negotiate.

    The rooms on the 15th floor are very densely distributed, and there are many people living there. Although the company has tried its best to achieve the best sound insulation when designing the apartment, it still cannot avoid interference with each other. Qiao Qiao may not have noticed this problem before because he was too tired every time he returned to the apartment and just fell asleep on the pillow. As a result, he was really affected by the noise pollution today.

    She opened the door angrily and turned left. In the next room, clear laughter could still be heard even through the door panel. There seemed to be a small party going on inside, and the waves of screams were getting louder and louder.

    “Can you please lower your voice?”

    Ten minutes later.

    “Wow, are you from the branch?” The baby-faced girl looked at Qiao Qiao in surprise, and several other girls also showed surprised expressions. “The competition must be very small, right? I’m so happy.”

    “It’s much smaller than here.” Qiao Qiao scratched his head in embarrassment, “On the first day I came here, I was shocked by the ranking board downstairs.”

    “Don’t mention it, don’t mention it. I hate seeing that thing the most.” A thin girl showed a painful expression, “I’ve been lazy and haven’t taken any movies recently, and my ranking has dropped rapidly. I’ve already disappeared.”

    “I’m so dissatisfied. At least you’re still on the list.” Babyface poked the girl with his elbow, “Are those four hundred of us still alive?”

    “Yes, let me feel the atmosphere among the 400 people. Even if I just climb up there, I will be squeezed down immediately…” Another girl dressed in fashionable clothes lamented unwillingly, “I don’t know how long those ‘sales queens’ have endured.”

    “Maybe it depends on chance.” Baby Face sighed, “Aren’t there many people who became famous based on a little-known script before? Maybe they didn’t even think that this script would make them popular before filming…”

    “It’s too far away. It’s been a long time since I debuted.”

    “What about you?” Baby Face suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Qiao Qiao, “How long have you been in the industry? You must have just entered the industry, right? You look so young.”

    “No way…” Qiao Qiao waved his hand hurriedly, “Actually, I’ve been at WAWA for two years and I haven’t even entered the top 400 yet.”

    The three girls all showed some pity. The baby-faced girl patted Qiao Qiao on the shoulder and said comfortingly: “Don’t worry, it’s probably because the branch is really not easy to develop. Haven’t you been transferred here now? You will get the opportunity soon.”

    “In comparison, I’m a little better.” The fashionable girl patted her chest, “At least I’ve only been out for a year, so I still have to work hard.”

    Qiao Qiao originally wanted to smile in agreement, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that his grades were indeed dismal and he couldn’t help but feel depressed.

    Of course, the mood of the girls changed very quickly when they got together. They were only depressed for a short while, and the topic turned to other things.

    “Guess who I met yesterday?” The tall and thin girl looked around at the others mysteriously, “You definitely can’t guess it.”

    “Stop being so pretentious, just tell me!” the impatient baby-faced man pushed her with a smile.

    “I met Qin Ruicheng!” The girl’s face was filled with happiness.

    When Qiao Qiao heard the words ‘Qin Ruicheng’, he pricked up his ears unconsciously, and the others were immediately attracted.

    “Really or not? No way?”

    “Wait a minute, how could a resident like him be bumped into by you so easily? Didn’t you go to the underground garage to stay?”

    “So everything is fate!” The tall and thin girl snorted, “I heard that there was something wrong with the wiring in his studio, and the work was in a hurry, so I had to borrow a nearby studio to continue shooting. I happened to be visiting a friend’s class that day, and I bumped into him!”

    Qiao Qiao thought about it silently, and it seemed that Qin Ruicheng had indeed complained to her about this matter in text messages a few days ago…

    “Why can’t I get such a good thing? I’m Qin Ruicheng’s old fan. It’s because of him that I decided to join WAWA!”

    “It’s so jealous! Does he look more handsome in person? I heard he’s 1.93 meters tall.”

    “Did you ask for a phone number? Did you get on the phone?”

    “I did muster up the courage to try to strike up a conversation.” The tall and lanky girl shrugged, “But she ignored me… to be precise, she walked past me without even looking at me. Maybe I was too short and didn’t notice, right?”

    “After all, he is so tall in WAWA, so it is normal for him to be a little colder.” Baby Face sighed.

    cold…

    Qiao Qiao decided to remain silent or pretend not to know anything…

    “Qin Ruicheng is the most friendly person among the residents. People like Jian Baiyou will probably never see a real person in his lifetime.”

    “But I have a friend who met me once! It was Director Zhuang’s audition! He was present at the audition. I heard that it later exploded on the Internet!”

    “Yes, that’s right. At that time, there was overwhelming news about him. I heard that he was super beautiful, as beautiful as a dummy…”

    “Director Zhuang’s audition? Aren’t you choosing the heroine? Why did Jian Baiyou go?”

    “I seem to be accompanying an artist. I heard that I sat next to her the whole time.” The fashionable girl gritted her teeth. “I heard that woman was extremely ugly. I really don’t understand what those men think. Is uglier fashion popular recently?”

    Qiao Qiao buried his head lower and felt like an arrow had been hit in his knee…

    “But Jiang Li is unlucky enough. I heard that she fell ill after losing the show? Now she has quit her job and retired. But people like her should leave as soon as possible. She is too arrogant.”

    Qiao Qiao suddenly raised his head and blurted out, “Isn’t Jiang Li dead?”

    The three girls looked back at her together. Qiao Qiao’s brain was working rapidly and he tried to make up his mind: “Well, I also heard what others said…”

    “It’s just a retreat.” Baby Face smiled, “Why did he die suddenly?”

    “Well… that’s right…” Qiao Qiao said a few casual words, and the topic turned to the latest clothing and fashion. After sitting for a while, Qiao Qiao said goodbye to the three of them on the pretext of feeling sleepy, and returned to his apartment.

    As soon as she entered the door, she heard her cell phone vibrating on the bed. Qiao Qiao picked it up in confusion, only to realize that these unread message reminders came from her WAWA circle, which kept notifying Qiao Qiao that someone had forwarded her updates, and a private message window popped up from time to time.

    The top private message automatically marked by the system is from Song Qiyan. There is only one sentence on it:

    Song Qiyan: Explain?

    Then there is a screenshot of Qiao Qiao’s news below, which is the photo of Song Qiyan in his early years that Qiao Qiao posted a while ago.

    Qiao Qiao’s eyes darkened.
