Chapter 2 – She Can Only Live Forever as Sheng Qiao

Huo Xi takes Qiao Qiao home, pours her a cup of hot water, and sits opposite her.

She is still crying, her shoulder is twitching, she looks around while she is crying. At last, her eyes fell on Huo Xi, who was opposite to her. She closed her eyes vigorously. Finally, incredibly, she cried out in a low voice: “Huo Xi…”

He looked at her with one hand on his forehead, and there was no emotion in his voice: “Sheng Qiao, what do you want to do?”

Hearing the word Sheng Qiao, she burst into tears.

Huo Xi: “…”

She cried for a while, as if remembering something, and looked up and asked, “Huo Xi, has the curtain been drawn? Never be photographed.”

Huo Xi: “…”

After a long time, she finally finished crying and choked and said, “Huo Xi, I’m so happy to see you. But something happened to me today, something amazing, I can’t afford to be happy.”

Idol is close at hand, but she is no longer her. A month ago, she heard that Huo Xi had moved to a new house, but she didn’t expect to move to her neighborhood. If she still was Qiao Qiao, how good it is.

Huo Xi wasn’t interested in the incredible things that happened to her. He looked at the time and stood up and said softly, “I call a car for you. Let’s go.”

Qiao Qiao’s brain was in a mess and she was too weak to follow him.

The elevator goes straight to the garage and the car waits outside. For celebrities of Huo Xi’s rank, security measures are extremely tight and there’s no need to worry about journalists sneaking in.

Huo Xi pulled the door for her and whispered, “Have a good rest.”

She nodded and leaned over the car. When the door closed and Huo Xi was about to turn back, she suddenly rolled down the window and shouted, “Huo Xi.”

Huo Xi turned around.

Her eyes were still red and her voice was buzzing, but her eyes were very earnest. “The business show will go smoothly tomorrow night.”

He nodded. “Thank you.”

Qiao Qiao sat back and reported Sheng Qiao’s home address to the driver.

It’s very late to get home. The second time she returned to this cold and strange home, she looked around, looked around, and cried uncontrollably.

She thought she could be back to Qiao Qiao someday, but it would be impossible.

All communication methods belonging to Qiao Qiao are no longer valid. Whether they are friends on Weibo or university classmates on Facebook, they do not have her in the photos.

Qiao Qiao disappeared so quietly.

But the earth is still turning, the world is still running, and other people’s lives have not changed anything because of the lack of her. As usual, she is not important.

Qiao Qiao covered the quilt and lay in bed for two days without eating or drinking.

Two days later, Gao Meiling’s phone call pulled her back to the reality she didn’t want to face: “Fang Bai has come to pick you up. Get it ready.”

After hanging up, she slowly sat up, went to the dressing room and looked at the people in the mirror for a long time.

Qiao Qiao has disappeared.

She can only live forever as Sheng Qiao.

* * * * * *

Assistant Fang Bai rang the doorbell and waited politely outside. He’s a newcomer. As soon as he joined the company, he heard Gao Meiling, the toughest agent and Sheng Qiao, the most difficult star to serve. They are the two “least” that everyone can avoid.

When he was hired, the girl assistant of Sheng Qiao was just fired by Gao Meiling. The company would not find the right person for a while, and no one would like to go to in the old staff. Fang Bai was just thrown away.

Before leaving, the sister of the personnel department kindly reminded him, “It can avoid a lot of trouble to talk less and do more, and treat them as bosses.”

Fang Bai keeps in mind and he has always maintained a respectful, polite and alienated attitude, and so far there has been no omission. He thought that working around the two “least” was not as terrible as the rumors.

When the door opened, Fang Bai looked up and just shouted the word “Qiao”, he stepped back two steps in horror.

Where did the female ghost come from?!

Messy hair, pale lips, haggard face and a wrinkled red dress. Fang Bai calmed down and sounded out, “Sister Qiao Qiao?”

She gave a hum and turned into the room.

Fang Bai hesitated, but finally walked in and stood on the porch and said, “Sister Qiao Qiao, we’re going to the company at 9:30, and there’s an hour left.”

Sheng Qiao was standing in front of the water dispenser, drinking three cups of water, standing in situ for a moment, and walking to the cloakroom: “I see.”

Her voice was hoarse. Fang Bai thought that she was ill. He would go to the drugstore to get some medicine first. If she delayed his work, he would also suffer.

Just thinking about it, Sheng Qiao came out with her hair pulled, tied a ponytail and a long black down suit, and said to him, “Come on.”

Fang Bai was stunned: “Just go out like this?”

“What’s wrong?”

You used to wear makeup for two hours! Fang Bai shook his head quickly. “Nothing much, let’s go.”

On the way to the car, Sheng Qiao did not speak any more. Fang Bai watched carefully from the rearview mirror and finally tentatively asked, “Sister Qiao Qiao, are you not feeling well? Should we go to the hospital first?

She shook her head weakly: “It’s okay, just a little hungry.”

Fang Bai was somewhat puzzled and wanted to laugh. He looked at the street and pulled over. “I’ll buy you some breakfast.”

The roadside breakfast shop is still very busy. Fang Bai is not sure what she likes to eat. He bought some of them and handed them to her when he got back to the car. “Sister Qiao Qiao, eat while it’s hot.”

Sheng Qiao smelled and feels more hungry and finally smiled. She thanked him and began to eat.

Fang Bai did not contact Sheng Qiao for a few days. He didn’t pay much attention to the Internet and didn’t know Sheng Qiao’s bad reviews. He was reminded by several good colleagues when he joined the company and realized that what he was serving was not a good person.

But in the past few days, they had nothing wrong. Sheng Qiao did not think much of him, and he was also idle. May be because they get along for some days, he thinks Sheng Qiao is very friendly. When she says thank you, she will look at your eyes and smile. The corners of her eyes are bent, which is much better than those women stars with heavy makeup.

Sheng Qiao is full of food and drink, and her face is ruddy, so she refreshes and asks Fang Bai, “what are we going to do today?”

Don’t you even know your work schedule?

Fang Bai answered, “There’s a magazine interview after the meeting, and we’re leaving for the group in the afternoon.”

Sheng Qiao was still drinking soy milk and almost squirted out, “What’s in the group? Why don’t I know Sheng… Why don’t I know I have a new play?

Fang Bai was stunned.

Is her business ability so casual?
