022 “AV Shooting Guide” Chapter 21

21: Moving

Qiao Qiao opened his eyes suddenly and found that he was lying flat on the small bed in his apartment.

For a second or two she really thought she was dreaming, but then she woke up. Qiao Qiao quickly got out of bed, grabbed the phone on the table and started calling WAWA.

The phone rang with a waiting sound, and Qiao Qiao waited impatiently while tapping the edge of the table with his left knuckles.

“Hello, this is WAWA’s employee inquiry hotline. Please show your employee number.” A soft female voice answered the phone.

“37740221.” Qiao Qiao said quickly.

“…Verification successful, Miss Qiao Qiao, is there anything I can help you with?”

“Well… I want to check if I have a reshooting scene this afternoon.” Qiao Qiao pursed her lips and asked in a trembling voice, “Maybe this scene has a higher level of restrictions. I guess it is a 21-ban scene and contains a lot of sexual violence scenes.”

“Okay, please wait.” There was silence on the phone. Qiao Qiao was nervous and began to tap the edge of the table more frequently. Fortunately, there was a reply soon, “Hello Miss Qiao, you did have a real-life simulation shooting with a restriction level of 21 at around two o’clock this afternoon, which specifically included binding, blindfolding, whipping, etc. Do you need to read the detailed entries to you?”

“No need…” Qiao Qiao stretched out her hands, and it had to be said that she breathed a small sigh of relief, “Then I want to complain. This scene caused me physical harm, and I was completely unaware of it in advance.”

“Okay, so did you suffer any injuries? Are there any scars or wounds?” There was a beep on the phone, indicating that the call would be recorded.

“Yes! It’s on my belly!” Qiao Qiao lifted up his shirt, “It’s a long line, starting from -”

She stared down at her smooth and white belly, blinked her eyes, and felt a little fantasy.

“Miss Qiao? Please describe it truthfully. If necessary, we will provide your phone call to the police to assist in the investigation.”

“Uh… there doesn’t seem to be a wound…” Qiao Qiao scratched his hair awkwardly, “But I do feel a lot of pain! That’s not right. Logically speaking, there should definitely be a wound…”

“It’s like this, Miss Qiao, your shooting is a real-life simulation. Sometimes, in order to seek the real reaction of the actors, the actors are not notified in advance, so you may unconsciously amplify the pain when you are nervous and frightened, thus causing you a very painful physiological illusion. Some actresses have reported this to us before, and we have submitted it to the planning department and will make unified adjustments to this situation in the next quarter.” The female voice over there explained gently.

“But…” Qiao Qiao always felt that something was wrong. “Even if you don’t tell me what the specific play is, at least tell me that you have this schedule today? I didn’t receive any notification from anyone.”

“Ms. Qiao, I suggest you check your mailbox. On the 1st of every month, we will send the work schedule of this month’s actors to your reserved mailbox. I hope you will check it frequently.”

Qiao Qiao choked. She had indeed not checked her schedule for a long time…

“Then I would like to ask who my partner in this scene is?” Qiao Qiao suddenly remembered this key question.

“Sorry Miss Qiao, the other party’s authority is higher than yours, and they choose to remain anonymous to you.”

…

Damn permission settings!

“Okay, then I have no problem, thank you.” Qiao Qiao finally had no choice but to hang up the phone angrily.

Although she received a perfect explanation, and she did not suffer any flesh injuries as she imagined, Qiao Qiao always felt particularly unsure. She intuitively felt that the person she was partnering with was not there for the purpose of filming at all, and it was even possible that the other person just wanted to hurt her.

Because although Qiao Qiao couldn’t see, she did feel a hidden violence from the other person’s movements and behaviors. This probably belonged to human beings’ sixth sense, especially women’s.She could sense that the other party wanted to whip her and restrain her, maybe not out of plot arrangement, but because he really wanted to do it, and he could get pleasure from Qiao Qiao’s whining and crying.

This made Qiao Qiao shudder.

“Wait, how did I get back?” Qiao Qiao muttered to herself. She suddenly thought of something, then stood up suddenly and began to pace anxiously in the room. “I fainted, and then they dressed me, packed my things, and drove me back – but I never left my address in the company.”

That’s right.

Qiao Qiao looked around his familiar small apartment.

Maybe it’s really against me. Even if there is no evidence now, if I continue to live here, I will definitely encounter greater danger – I have to move!

The cell phone on the table suddenly rang. Qiao Qiao opened it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

“Hello, how are you?” Qiao Qiao tried to make his voice sound calmer.

“Is this Miss Qiao?” A male voice said, “Mr. Qin arranged for me to deliver two packages to your apartment. Will you be home tomorrow?”

“Oh, it turns out it’s those clothes…” Qiao Qiao forced a smile. She was about to say that she was free, but suddenly she thought that she had decided to move. If she sent them now, she would need to pay another shipping fee, so Qiao Qiao replied, “Well, no, no need to send them away yet. I plan to move temporarily, so I can just pick them up when I have time.”

“Okay.” The other party hung up the phone politely.

Qiao Qiao quickly plugged in his laptop and began to sit on the sofa and browse some rental information. Anyway, this house was about to expire, so it would be better to move in sooner.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Qiao had just watched it for less than twenty minutes when another call came in. It was still an unfamiliar number that Qiao Qiao had never seen before.

“Hello?”

“Qiao Qiao, this is Cheng Xiu.” A deep and magnetic male voice came from the other end of the phone, followed by the sound of brakes, “I’m here to pick you up and take you to my house.”

Qiao Qiao grabbed his cell phone and ran to the window sill, and sure enough he saw a white pickup truck parked downstairs in his apartment.

“Mr. Cheng, how did you—” Qiao Qiao put the phone to his ear in shock.

“It was Qin Ruicheng who called me.” Cheng Xiuyan summarized briefly, “Okay, I’m going up.”

Qiao Qiao saw the door of the pickup truck open from a distance, and a man dressed in black got out of the car and walked into Qiao Qiao’s apartment.

She quickly straightened her clothes and ran to the door to open it.

Cheng Xiu came up quickly. Although he was slightly shorter than Qin Ruicheng, he was more muscular and had a soldier’s toughness about him. Just standing inside Qiao Qiao’s small apartment would make Qiao Qiao’s home look particularly small.

“Decided to move on the spur of the moment?” Cheng Xiu glanced at the daily necessities in the room that had not yet been packed away. “Just pack the important ones and buy the rest.”

“Oh, okay.” Qiao Qiao nodded obediently and quickly unplugged the laptop’s power cord and wrapped it around it.While pestering me, I was secretly wondering why I had to listen to him so much.

In the end, Qiao Qiao gave up the idea of ​​bringing her a complete set of bedding, and only picked up some valuable things and packed them in the suitcase. However, even a 20-inch small suitcase was almost packed to the point of bursting. Cheng Xiu couldn’t bear it after watching the painful scene of Qiao Qiao struggling to unzip the suitcase for a while. He patted Qiao Qiao’s shoulder to signal her to get out of the way, and then pressed down with his knee, closing the suitcase.

Cheng Xiu easily carried the suitcase that Qiao Qiao could hardly lift with both hands in his left hand, and took Qiao Qiao downstairs.

“Well, Mr. Cheng, I won’t live in your house anymore, right?” Qiao Qiao watched Cheng Xiu throw the suitcase into the bed of the pickup truck and said cautiously, “I’ll just go to the hotel to stay. Besides, I’ll find a house soon.”

“No.” Cheng Xiu said.

…

Qiao Qiao was so blocked that he couldn’t say anything else.

Cheng Xiu opened the car door and signaled Qiao Qiao to get in. Qiao Qiao quickly got in. Then Cheng Xiu also went around to the other side and got into the driver’s seat. He put down the handbrake and started to reverse. He was very skilled and the car was very stable. He quickly turned out of the residential area and onto the asphalt road.

The atmosphere in the car was very strange. Of course, this was just Qiao Qiao’s own opinion. She was used to interacting with Qin Ruicheng when riding in the car, so she was not used to being so quiet for a while.

She secretly glanced at Cheng Xiu’s hands on the steering wheel. Cheng Xiu’s arms were not thick but had thick veins. The blood vessels beat faintly under the skin. It was obvious that they were very powerful hands.

“But, it’s still not good to live in your house…” Qiao Qiao still tried to struggle.

Cheng Xiu frowned. He seemed too lazy to explain these things, but he still said patiently: “It’s not safe outside. If you don’t live at Qin Ruicheng’s house, you can only live at my place.”

Why can’t I live with Qin Ruiqing?

Qiao Qiao almost asked, but then she remembered how she got angry with Qin Ruicheng two days ago and said she would never see him again, and she had an epiphany.

It seemed that the man who had just delivered the clothes reported to Qin Ruicheng that he was moving. Qin Ruicheng thought that he was still angry and was embarrassed to call. He also expected that he would definitely not stay at his house again, so he asked Cheng Xiu, who had no interest in women, to pick him up and move in.

But how do they know that I am moving because of safety concerns?

Cheng Xiu seemed to have guessed what Qiao Qiao was thinking, and added calmly: “The rush to move is nothing more than fear.”

Oh…that’s it.

Qiao Qiao finally understood the whole meaning, relaxed his mind, stopped asking questions, and looked straight ahead.

Wait, doesn’t Cheng Xiu live at WAWA headquarters?Is it possible that I have to live on the legendary 10th floor?

It seems… not very safe…
