Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 976 - 965: Best Actor

Li Ge stared blankly at the news online. She didn’t understand where something had gone wrong; in the previous life, Ye Qiu clearly didn’t act in the drama "Murder Case"!

Where did it go wrong?

Her first thought was whether Ye Qiu, like her, had also been reborn?

But as soon as this thought emerged, she shook her head. Given how decisively she broke up with Ye Qiu in the previous life and his strong opposition, if he truly had been reborn, he would have sought her out. But he hadn’t.

Li Ge couldn’t tell if she was relieved or disappointed. Her heart was filled with a lingering emotion. She thought perhaps leaving her, with Ye Qiu’s abilities, he might have better prospects. He had always been remarkable.

Even though she told herself that this life had nothing to do with him anymore, and they would never intersect again, Li Ge couldn’t help but pay attention to the online news. Seeing those haters recklessly slandering Ye Qiu, claiming he had poor character and frequented nightclubs, Li Ge felt angry. No one knew better than her what kind of person Ye Qiu truly was.

In the previous life, aside from her, Ye Qiu never wronged anyone and never did anything to tarnish his character.

Li Ge placed her fingers on the keyboard, ready to refute those outrageous haters. But after typing two lines, she deleted them one by one.

She let out a bitter laugh, wondering why she still couldn’t break away from the habit of caring for him. Hadn’t she been hurt enough in the last life? Didn’t they agree not to have any more contact?

Forget it; with Ye Qiu’s capabilities, being blacklisted online was just a temporary matter. He would eventually shine and show netizens his true self. Why should she go out of her way?

Li Ge shut her computer, forcing herself to sleep. But her mind was filled with memories of their past life together—running to the set, earnestly responding to haters, practicing lines...

She had to admit they had many warm moments, but he had let her down too: making her wait time and again, disappointing her repeatedly, eroding her confidence in him.

Perhaps forgetting each other in the world was the best outcome!

"Is this what you meant by netizens forgetting him? Sister Zhu Li, I’ve heard that higher-ups are already starting to pay attention to him. What if the company abandons me for him?" Qiao Wenxi worriedly paced, looking at Ye Qiu’s popularity online, eyes burning with jealousy.

Although half of the online opinions about Ye Qiu were negative and half were positive, and he wasn’t particularly well-regarded, Qiao Wenxi was still very envious. He wished it were himself.

The world of entertainment is more than just having a good reputation. Sometimes questioning can bring attention, bringing commercial value.

Just like Ye Qiu now, no matter how many haters there are, he can still get commercial gigs, endorsements, and countless scripts and variety shows waiting for him.

But what about himself? Even if he were to reveal that he was framed by Ye Qiu as a teammate, it would only garner a few sympathetic comments from netizens and have no real impact.

"Why are you worried?" Zhu Li snapped at him, her narrow eyes gleaming. "I’ve earned so much money for the company; won’t they at least show me some respect? Isn’t your drama about to premiere? Just use his popularity and stir up the old scandal of him framing you."

Listening to her confidence, Qiao Wenxi felt slightly reassured but still resentful. Why must he ride on Ye Qiu’s popularity again? Back when they were in a group together, fans always noticed Ye Qiu first.

Is having a good face really that important?

Qiao Wenxi refused to believe he was inferior to Ye Qiu. There are plenty of good-looking people in the entertainment industry; have they all become famous?

They haven’t. Besides having a good face, what’s more important are connections. Ye Qiu doesn’t even have an agent now. How could he compete with himself?

He wasn’t sure how much sacrifice he made for all of this today. He absolutely couldn’t lose to that hypocrite Ye Qiu.

"There’s a soirée at President Zhang’s place tonight; get ready." Zhu Li took a drag on her cigarette, as if discussing something ordinary.

Qiao Wenxi’s face darkened, lowering his voice, "Sister Li, wasn’t it agreed not to exceed twice a month?"

Zhu Li chuckled, "That’s how it was said, but with Ye Qiu’s momentum so strong, you think you can displace him without extra effort? It’s not that easy. It’s up to you; I said I wouldn’t force you."

But since she said so, Qiao Wenxi didn’t dare disagree, dressing flamboyantly for the occasion that evening.

What he didn’t know was that as he entered the venue, a mysterious little bird captured a video of him with a phone. Deep into the night, as President Zhang embraced him into a car, another video was taken.

"Qiuqiu, we got it." Little Golden Crow cheerfully reported to Ye Qiu.

"Thank goodness you woke up in time, or I would have had to do it myself, risking discovery." Ye Qiu affectionately patted its head.

The venue Qiao Wenxi went to was highly discreet; non-members couldn’t enter, security was exceptionally tight, especially against paparazzi. That’s why Qiao Wenxi was so bold without concealing himself today.

But the security personnel never imagined there existed a sentient Divine Bird able to use a phone.

Ye Qiu didn’t want to resort to such dirty tactics, but he merely utilized his opponent’s methods against them. Since Qiao Wenxi intended to frame him, he could hardly blame Ye Qiu for exposing him.

Moreover, Ye Qiu’s rumors were fabricated by Qiao, whereas Qiao’s actions were irrefutable facts.

Ye Qiu never paid much attention to Qiao Wenxi; his current biggest goal was to terminate the contract with Deep Blue. Only by terminating the contract could he move to Sweet Orange Entertainment where Li Ge was.

Don’t think I don’t know. Li Ge is now managing a water-fresh, green youth who looks elegant and aloof—just her type.

Ye Qiu was both anxious and jealous, but there were only two ways to terminate the contract.

One is to have enough compensation funds, the other is to wait for the contract to expire.

There are still five and a half years until the contract expires—a period too long for Ye Qiu to wait, nor does he want to make money for the money-grabbing Deep Blue. So only the first option remains.

Apart from compensating himself, there is another way to pay the high compensation, which is to have an interested agency pay for collaboration.

However, the only agency Ye Qiu wanted was Sweet Orange Entertainment. Would Sweet Orange Entertainment pay compensation to Deep Blue Entertainment for his sake?

Ye Qiu felt a single web drama was far from enough. Even if he already signed a leading contract on the second "Murder Case" with Director Song, it was still not enough.

To join Sweet Orange Entertainment ideally requires some degree of influence.
