Starlight Has No Past

Chapter 26 Part 2

Whether it was out of obligation or affection from the past, Gu Jin tried to comfort her:

“Qiaoqiao…..”

“Get out.” Ye Qiao leapt to her feet, the small suitcase dropped to the ground with a thud

right in between them. “Are you too used to be self-righteous? Do you think others who

can't speak nicely with you are all because they don't know any better? Ah, Gu Jin, I have

a sound mind; there's no room for an outsider to point fingers at my family business. Maybe

you think you're doing this out of kindness, then so be it. Just burn two tall sticks of incense

for me every night to wish me a happy marriage and a successful career. That's all I need,

don't show your face in front of me.”

She picked up her suitcase and walk out of the room. From the corner of her eyes, she saw

Gu Jin's blackened face. She knew she had finally angered him this time. She turned around

with a smile and threw the envelope back at him: “If you really want to do anything for me,

transfer a million RMB to my account. Maybe then I won't be angry anymore.”

On the way back, she deliberately avoided the van for the main actors of the movie. Zhao Mo

saw her coming to her van with a suitcase and considerately helped putting her suitcase into

the trunk.

Ye Qiao wasn't sure about her attentiveness and tried to turn her down: “Don't worry about it.

My a.s.sistant will do it.”

Zhao Mo took it as a gesture that Ye Qiao despised her. She embarra.s.sedly grinned: “It's alright.

It's no trouble at all.”

Ye Qiao then realized that she had been a bit too harsh on Zhao Mo's goodwill, probably

because of her fight with Gu Jin earlier. She turned to smile at Zhao Mo and said: “Thanks.”

Zhao Mo hesitated for a second and asked with a smile: “There are several people in the van

that graduated from the same film school as you. It would be so nice to have Qiao Jie join us.”

Ye Qiao: “Oh, really? What years are they?”

Zhao Mo became more visibly relaxed: “They're all newly graduates. There's one who's a junior.”

Ye Qiao saw a row of young faces after she got on the van.

They were young men and women who were pa.s.sionate about acting. On the way back, they

chatted, played games, and burst into laughters on the desolate road.

Ye Qiao was only two or three years older than them, but she didn't feel so young anymore.

The b.u.mpy drive seemed to have shortened quite a bit from just sitting among these young

actors. A young man carefully mentioned to Ye Qiao while she was getting off the van that he

was her fan and asked for her WeChat. Ye Qiao made the excuse that she was already in the

group for the filming crew. The young man, though disappointed, earnestly said: 's.h.i.+jie, our

acting teacher is the same as yours. The teacher often uses you as an example when teaching us.”

One of his cla.s.smates also chimed in: “Yeah, that's right. Teacher Qin keeps saying that you're

her favorite student.” He sounded like he was looking up to her.

Ye Qiao didn't expect to be such a glamorous person in others' eyes. Compared to reality, she

self-deprecatingly smiled: “Teacher Qin thinks too highly of me.”

When they were back to the airport in the city, each one was flying to different destinations.

Shen Ting kept her company at the gate and dutifully reported on her upcoming schedule:

“The episode that Young Master Zheng asked you to shoot with him for
