Honest Beta gets scammed

Li Qing blinked, his brain working frantically, his CPU about to overheat and burn out.

What's going on?

He hadn't even finished processing the fact that Qu Qingzhe had a sugar daddy, and was still wondering if it was true or not, when the person in question personally confirmed it.

And why tell him?

How is he supposed to answer that?

After a long pause, under Qu Qingzhe's gaze, Li Qing held back for a long time before finally managing to squeeze out a sentence.

"Uh, that's great, then we won't have to worry about resources anymore?"

As soon as the words left his mouth, Li Qing realized he was talking nonsense.

Qu Qingzhe was also stunned by his answer.

A hint of surprise appeared in those eyes that had remained calm since they entered.

A few seconds later, Qu Qingzhe burst out laughing.

The laughter was soft, but it seemed to break the deadlock.

He didn't ask any more questions that would leave people speechless. He simply shook his head and said, "Alright, let's go."

Li Qing followed Qu Qingzhe out of the dressing room, completely bewildered.

Qu Qingzhe still had scenes to film in the afternoon and needed to go back for makeup touch-ups, but Li Qing had already finished all his work for the day and was preparing to go straight back to the hotel.

After taking all the items, Qu Qingzhe suddenly waved goodbye to him as he was leaving.

Li Qing was taken aback, then raised his hand and waved it, feeling somewhat flattered.

Regardless of whether he has a sugar daddy or not, Qu Yingdi is handsome, has great acting skills, and the dramas and movies he makes are genuinely good.

But what Li Qing didn't expect was that things would develop in a miraculous direction.

He and Qu Qingzhe actually started chatting after that.

After that day, Qu Qingzhe took the initiative to add him as a contact friend.

Originally, Li Qing was all alone in this film crew, returning to the hotel every day after filming. Now, suddenly, there's someone she can talk to, a celebrity she used to chat with her sister. It feels quite strange.

Strictly speaking, he didn't actually have that many interactions with Qu Qingzhe.

After all, Qu Qingzhe is the male lead, with an incredibly large number of scenes, keeping him extremely busy.

But whenever he had a spare moment, Qu Qingzhe would come over and chat with him for a few minutes, and would occasionally give him pointers on acting skills.

The role of Li Qing, the shadow guard, is very easy. The only scene that requires some skill, the unrequited love, is as simple as eating and drinking for Qu Qingzhe.

This situation was quickly noticed by others on set.

The way everyone looked at Li Qing changed.

At first, Li Qing wasn't quite used to this feeling, but after receiving guidance from Qu Qingzhe several times, he quickly got into it.

So he stopped being so reserved and started to get to know Qu Qingzhe better.

But for someone else, this situation is not so pleasant.

half a month later.

He Xiangchen finally finished dealing with the mess in Country E and set foot on the land of the Federation again.

He didn't go home; as soon as he got back, he went to the company and finished processing the pile of documents.

He had a tough month, but his spirits were exceptionally high. He had completely adjusted his mindset and was convinced that with his charm, even if Li Qing didn't have feelings for him for the time being, she definitely wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

The more He Xiangchen imagined Li Qing finally becoming devoted to him, the brighter his mood became.

He drove straight to the set of "The Legend of the Dragon" to give that country bumpkin a surprise!

To avoid unnecessary trouble, He Xiangchen informed the director of the production team in advance.

When the director found out who he was, he was so shocked that he almost dropped his phone. He was deeply moved, but he kept promising to make the arrangements.

Aside from the director's amazement, He Xiangchen's arrival didn't actually cause any trouble on set.

He never appears in front of the media. Even when he was keeping minor celebrities, he never took the initiative to visit them on set. Therefore, there are very few people in the entertainment industry who have actually seen He Xiangchen in person.

He arrived at the film set quickly, took the last parking spot, and walked into the set alone, ignoring the tailgate behind him.

The set was bustling with people, and the staff were all busy.

The scene being filmed now is a confrontation between the female lead and the antagonist. He Xiangchen wasn't interested. He glanced around but didn't see Li Qing's familiar figure in the crowd.

He frowned slightly, took a few steps inside, and finally saw Li Qing in a corner.

The moment He Xiangchen saw it, his face fell.

In a corner of the set, Li Qing was sitting on a small folding stool with his back to him. But that wasn't the point. Qu Qingzhe was also sitting next to Li Qing, but that wasn't the point either. The two were chatting happily, and Li Qing kept smiling! That was the point!

He Xiangchen narrowed his eyes.

He knew Qu Qingzhe.

The He family, the Qin family, and the Fang family have consistently been among the top tier of wealthy families in the Federation. They are often referred to as the "Three Great Families" by outsiders.

Although the three companies have some overlap in their businesses, their core businesses do not conflict, and they even have a lot of cooperation, so the relationship between the three companies is quite good.

He Xiangchen, Qin Chuanci, and Fang Yuehan, as children of the same generation from three families, can be said to have grown up together, like childhood friends in the eyes of ordinary people.

As for childhood sweethearts, well, those who know, know—it's easy for some melodramatic stories to happen.

He Xiangchen wasn't the protagonist of the melodramatic story, but he kept his distance, too lazy to get involved, otherwise he might easily get himself into trouble.

Even he didn't want to get involved in this mess, but Qu Qingzhe was incredibly fearless. Fang Yuehan could just talk about it, but he really dared to step in without batting an eye, becoming the troublemaker and almost triggering a major battle.

Although it ended peacefully in the end, given Qu Qingzhe's illustrious past, He Xiangchen instinctively didn't like the kid very much.

Now, seeing Li Qing grinning from ear to ear with this person, he felt inexplicably uneasy. He quickly put on his signature fake smile, took long strides, and walked straight over.

Li Qing was chatting with Qu Qingzhe when he suddenly felt a shadow looming over him, blocking the light from above.

He turned his head, and when he saw the person's face clearly, his eyes widened, and he blurted out.

"He Xiangchen?!"

He Xiangchen smiled at him and gave a lazy reply.

"Yes, I've come to visit the set."

After speaking, he shifted his gaze slightly and it landed on Qu Qingzhe.

Few people in the entertainment industry know He Xiangchen, but Qu Qingzhe is clearly one of those few.

Unlike Li Qing, he was very clear about the weight of the person in front of him, and naturally he had heard about He Xiangchen's romantic past.

Seeing that Li Qing and He Xiangchen were so familiar with each other, even calling each other by name, Qu Qingzhe's gaze couldn't help but shift back and forth between the two, and finally a solemn look appeared in his eyes.
