Blame the Villain For Being Too Beautiful - Chapter 7
Villainous Movie Queen (7)
Song Xu Yi
did not expect her "tree hole" to suddenly come to life.
What's more,
she didn't expect Zhao Qingyu to even notice the number of days she had missed
from ‘clocking in’.
She often went to Super Talk to hang out and knew that
certain fans would have special groups to count check-ins, and those who signed
in less would be despised by everyone, but she never thought she would have a
day when someone would point out to her for breaking her regular ‘check-ins’.
And this person is still the main subject.
Thinking of this, the heat on Song Xu Yi's face came back
up.
She stared at the transfer sent by Zhao Qingyu, her heart
inexorably torn, not knowing whether she should receive it or not, and finally
put down her phone and went downstairs once again.
The enemy did not move, so she did not move. Zhao Qingyu did
not accept the transfer she sent over, and she was too embarrassed to accept
the transfer that she sent.
After coming downstairs the Song family had adjusted their
mood.
With the Song family's presence here, every New Year's Eve phones
would ring non-stop. Song Xu Yi rarely mixed with her parents' circle, and her
previous circle of friends had broken off contact, so she also called and
messaged with a few classmates and teachers.
It was a rare moment of leisure for Song Xu Yi. She was
lounging on the sofa sipping a sweet and sour cocktail and eating a snack while
swiping through Weibo, when she subconsciously clicked into Zhao Qingyu's Super
Talk.
Now the final trailer for the film in which Zhao Qingyu is
starring has been released.
Officially it's a riveting tale of revenge and power
grabbing.
In the trailer, Zhao Qingyu's eyes are stern, sitting high
on her throne, obviously only 21 years old, but a turn and a glance back
reveals the character's encounters over the years: her eyes are at first a bit
confused, looking at the prostrating crowd under her feet, as if she does not
understand why she, who only wanted to marry her senior brother and live a
happy idyllic life, is here; then her beautiful eyes fiercely converge, time
seems like an arrow, the swords and shadows of these years pass before her
eyes; finally her eyes are a little bit firm, the camera pulls away, she stands
above the ten thousand people, lonely but indifferent, slowly raising her
hands...
It was only when this trailer ended that Song Xu Yi came
back to her senses and let out a long breath of relief.
The wine seems to have gone to her head, and such a Zhao
Qingyu is so valiant that one can't help but be moved by all her emotions, and
even want to prostrate before her.
Before Song Xu Yi could shake off the emotion of seeing the
trailer, the video call on her mobile phone lit up, and Song Xu Yi looked at
the words "Zhao Qingyu" on the top, her heart jumped and the phone
almost fell to the ground...
The image spins upside down and the other person's red face
emerges from the middle of the phone screen.
"Hello, Xu Yi."
Zhao Qing Yu looked at Song Xu Yi's shy face at the other
end of the screen: after not seeing her for so long, Song Xu Yi seemed to have
lost a little weight, and her face was becoming more and more delicate, making
her eyes, which were covered with a layer of watery mist at the moment, look
even bigger.
Been drinking?
Zhao Qingyu had to admit that she liked Song Xu Yi's eyes:
they were clean and clear, with a brightness that no one else could simulate,
seemingly always vibrant and full of hope and fighting spirit.
It was as if Song Xu Yi had suddenly become like this, and
when she thought about it carefully, Zhao Qingyu had forgotten what Song Xu Yi
used to look like.
Zhao Qingyu didn't know when she started to notice the daily
routine that Song Xu Yi has been sending to her.
Zhao Qingyu is incredibly sensitive to the emotions of
others, and after several encounters: she is certain that the current Song Xu
Yi does not like her very much, and is even vaguely afraid of her.
Then why does Song Xu Yi have to pretend to like her?
Zhao Qingyu wants to find out why.
She had deliberately not replied to Song Xu Yi's message
when she first saw it: she wanted to test Song Xu Yi's attitude.
But every day when she opened her phone, Zhao Qingyu didn't
know what kind of mood she was in and would always subconsciously tap off the
red dot in Song Xu Yi's chat window, not to mention never wanting to block Song
Xu Yi.
And every time she received flowers from Song Xu Yi on set,
her fellow cast members would tease her, either genuinely or falsely,
"Qing Yu, I really envy you for having a fan with such a distinguished
background as the Song family princess..."
Whenever she hears such comments, Zhao Qingyu smiles on her
face, but in her heart she laughs out loud: a fake fan with false feelings.
But Song Xu Yi never stops sending a bouquet of flowers
every week.
Zhao Qingyu collected the flowers and got along with the
'friendly' directors and actors around her, and never encountered anything as
bad as the last production...
At this time, Zhao Qingyu had a vague suspicion in her mind:
Song Xu Yi, she seemed to be protecting her... in this way...
But why would she do this?
Her heart grows more and more puzzled about Song Xu Yi. One
day when the crew was passing by the supermarket for a dinner, Zhao Qingyu went
into the supermarket and bought a vase of flowers and placed it in her room,
and began to change the flowers sent by Song Xu Yi every week...
And the messages that Song Xu Yi sent over started to
change.
One day when Zhao Qingyu got up early in the morning to do
her makeup, Song Xu Yi's chat window lit up again.
"I guess you must have blocked me, hehe."
Zhao Qingyu watched coldly to see what she wanted to do, but
to her surprise, the other party never sent another message.
It wasn't until she finished shooting an evening scene that
day that she found another one from Song Xu Yi: "Today's exam was so hard!
I seem to have gotten the last big question wrong..."
Is she... pouting to her?
However no messages were sent after that.
The next morning, she saw a message from Song Xu Yi,
"This morning I had my favourite chicken feet with lemon, our canteen's
chicken feet are really good, super tasty, and the sweetest thing is that every
time the auntie serves the food, she will give me an extra one..."
Zhao Qingyu reacted with hindsight: Song Xu Yi, this little
girl, had used her WeChat as a tree hole!
For the first time, Zhao Qingyu felt a little ridiculous,
but she could not think of any other guess than this possibility.
Only, when Zhao Qingyu looked at the chicken breast and
broccoli diet meal in front of her, the diet she had been used to somehow
suddenly became tasteless.
In the evening, Song Xu Yi came again:
"The trailer for the new movie is out today! You're
beautiful..."
"Today Professor Huang scolded and made another boy
cry. Although I don't admire him as much now as I did at the beginning of the
school year, what he said actually makes quite a bit of sense: there are some
detailed mistakes that should never be made..."
……
Thereafter, Song Xu Yi began to share the most ordinary and
trivial aspects of her daily life on a daily basis.
Zhao Qingyu would flip through it every day, but she never
replied, after all, in her perception, the messages sent by Song Xu Yi were
just a pastime and she didn't take them to heart.
Until one day, Song Xu Yi didn't send any more messages.
What has happened?
Zhao Qingyu was a bit disoriented throughout the day, even
being shouted several 'cuts' in the set, and tossing and turning at night for a
long time before falling asleep...
It was only the next day that Song Xu Yi's messages
resurfaced.
"It's so tiring to learn from the old man day after
day! But I've learned a lot too..."
It turned out that she was busy studying.
Zhao Qingyu had to admit that at that moment a huge stone
seemed to drop in her heart, and it was only then that she realised: Song Xu
Yi's place in her heart seemed to be more important than she had imagined...
This is not a good sign.
But looking at Song Xu Yi's words on her phone, "The
old man praised me for my talent, I'm so happy", Zhao Qingyu involuntarily
curled her lips.
Song Xu Yi as a whole is really extremely dazzling and so
naturally attracts the attention of shady, hypocritical people like herself.
Every time she looks at the messages she sends, it's like having a delightful
pet in her phone and there's a strange sense of satisfaction.
After all, it's a pet that can be seen through at a glance,
so what kind of a storm can it make?
……
However, this interruption was only the beginning, and Song
Xu Yi's messages began to be inconsistent for some time afterwards. Even though
she knew that Song Xu Yi was busy studying, Zhao Qingyu began to suspect almost
instinctively: was she really studying? Or had she... given up pretending to
like her?
Without Zhao Qingyu even noticing it herself, the frequency
of her checking her phone has increased a lot, and whenever she looks at the
empty chat window, it feels like a feather is ruffling her chest with an
indescribable anxiety.
This feeling reached its peak at the end of the year: Song
Xu Yi hadn't sent a message for five days——
With the arrival of the Chinese New Year, the crew gave all
members of the cast three days off.
New Year's Eve has arrived.
The nurses have gone home for the New Year, her mother is
sedated and asleep, and the ward is silent as Zhao Qingyu sits expressionlessly
flipping through her phone: she has received an email stating that the
financial statements of the company she secretly set up have doubled.
Zhao Qingyu curled her lips, yet her heart was not as happy
as she thought it was.
She clicked in her phone and subconsciously stopped at Song
Xu Yi's chat window again. A familiar middle-aged man walked in and handed Zhao
Qingyu a red envelope, which also contained a cheque.
Zhao Qingyu did not look at the cheque, she looked up at the
man and asked in a soft voice, "Does Aunt Liu still not want to see
me?"
The man glanced at Zhao Qingyu and shook his head.
Aunt Liu is Zhao Qingyu's sponsor. When her mother went mad,
it was Aunt Liu who supported her for a long time, and she borrowed the first
money she needed to set up her company.
Only, Aunt Liu never wanted to see Zhao Qingyu, she only
asked her to grow up happily, peacefully and prosperously.
Zhao Qingyu has always disguised herself well, just as Aunt
Liu had hoped: she has skipped grades one after another, graduated from
university at 19, suddenly signed up for an acting show at 20, became popular
at 21... her smile is her impeccable façade, she hides it from everyone, no one
knows the monstrous hatred she hides deep in her heart.
The man soon left.
Zhao Qingyu's mood, however, grew worse and she
subconsciously opened her phone and stopped at Song Xu Yi's page, only to find
an additional transfer, the little girl who had been missing for five days had
also sent her New Year's Eve money...
Zhao Qingyu sneered in her heart, but hauntingly, she
couldn't help but send a message back.
She had already predicted Song Xu Yi's expression: she would
be as surprised as if she had seen a ghost, and then she would be blushing with
shyness...
I've never seen a kid so easily bashful...
Zhao Qingyu stared intently at the chat window, yet fifteen
minutes had passed and there had been no reply from the other side.
Zhao Qingyu's face sank.
Just as she was about to throw the phone away, the other
side finally answered.
She knows what she's doing!
Zhao Qingyu looked at the fake fan's words of loyalty and
laughed coldly in her heart, but she couldn't resist sending her New Year's Eve
money.
Song Xu Yi never replied again, nor did she accept her
transfer.
Fake fan indeed!
Zhao Qingyu completely lost her patience and made a video
call.
However, after making the call and saying hello, Zhao Qingyu
suddenly forgot what to say when she looked at Song Xu Yi, whose cheeks were
red, and the 'shhh' gesture she made...
Song Xu Yi seems to have arrived at a door with her phone.
There was a loud “bang” and Song Xu Yi turned the camera:
fireworks were set off in the Song family mansion, adults congratulated each
other, children jumped and leapt, and with the colorful fireworks in the air,
the hustle and bustle seemed to pour out of the screen, making the ward look
less cold...
The camera pans again and Zhao Qingyu sees the girl's shy,
smiling face.
"Happy New Year, Sister Qingyu."
"Have a healthy and prosperous new year, and all the
best... be happy!"
……
The author has something to say:
Song Xu Yi: wishing her 'all the best' means destroying herself, I'm not that stupid ~(*^__^*) ~
