No Bounds for the CEO’s Spoiling

Chapter 302: Am I too Selfish (IV)



After she arrived at the studio and finished her makeup, she noticed Xiaobai was absent. They told her that he was taking an exam today.

Frowning, Qin Muxuan considered, ‘Which exam will be held now?’

As she was contemplating, a grip informed her that the shooting would start. Gathering her wits together, the woman strode out of the dressing room.

Seeing her, Zhang Jiayi didn’t say anything. He behaved as usual. The director also reprimanded those who overacted.

After all, Teen became popular before they finished the shooting because of the affair. Comments under its hashtag surged.

Members in the crew changed their attitudes. Those people who had been aloof came to her as soon as she regained her reputation. Compliments and fawning words flooded to her.

However, Qin Muxuan was not fond of such air. In addition, she was worried about her daughter who went to school for the first time. Therefore, she left to pick the girl up as soon as she finished her shooting.

As she coaxed Qin Xin into the backseat, she heard someone call her.

“Qin Xuan?”

Staring at her back, Gu Zijin was not sure whether she was Qin Muxuan or not.

The familiar voice petrified Qin Muxuan. Her face turned pale immediately.

“Xin, you’re a good girl. Stay quiet. I’ll buy you an ice cream later.” The woman whispered and straightened up her body. She then closed the door and stood before the window. After making sure that he couldn’t see anything from outside, she looked up at the man.

‘It’s her.’ However, Gu Zijin became more confused, “Why are you here?”

Qin Muxuan glanced at Qin Xiaobai who stood beside the man. An excuse popped up in her mind, “I’ve heard that Xiaobai has an exam today. I’m curious about why a school holds an exam this day, so I’m here.”

The entrance exam had been just finished. Most of schools wouldn’t have an official exam at this time. Her pretext made sense.

Noticing she gazed at Qin Xiaobai, Gu Zijin misunderstood that she was here for the boy, “It’s not a crucial exam. He needs subsequent visits to the doctor, so I ask for a leave for him.”

Qin Muxuan who had been stuck in a mess remembered that Qin Xiaobai’s hand hadn’t recovered yet since he fell into the water.

Frowning, she said, “I thought he’s recovered.”

Gu Zijin nodded, “I can’t rest assured before he sees the doctor again.”

Their serious conversation made Qin Xiaobai pout. The boy cut in naughtily, “In fact, I have already recovered. Adults like to overreact.”

His words amused Qin Muxuan. She rubbed his head, “I have some reservations on your words. We should listen to the doctor.”

“Humph!” Qin Xiaobai was not satisfied with her words. Shaking his head, he tried to get rid of her hand.

Noticing he was energetic, Qin Muxuan understood he didn’t upset about someone pushing him into the water. She was cheerful.

After a few words with Gu Zijin, she urged them to go to the hospital. The woman took her daughter home.

Before dinner, Gu Zijin sent her a Wechat message.

He said, “The doctor said Xiaobai had recovered.”

Reading that, Qin Muxuan was overjoyed. She even had another bowl of rice.

The woman was in high spirits after she washed Qin Xin clean and put the girl in bed. However, a call from Jian Xi ruined her mood.

“Muxuan, God! Someone exposes that you don’t have other works. Remember, you pretended to be a famous star and paid to join the crew!”

As soon as Qin Muxuan answered the phone, words bombed at her.

She pulled the phone away from her ear which became numb because of Jian Xi’s bellow. The woman turned on the speaker and threw the phone onto the bed, “Calm down.”

“Whoa, whoa, I’ll deal with it. Don’t worry.”

“Numerous people are searching you on Weibo. How can I calm down?”

“I have a counterplan.” She had figure out a plan since she became Qin Xuan.

‘Besides, it must have been Yan Yuxiao who wanna destroy me in such a hurry.’

Considering that, Qin Muxuan narrowed her eyes. A trace of malice flashed through her eyes.

‘A cornered beast will do something desperate.’

“A counterplan?”

“Ask the staff of the company in M country to send you my advertisements. Post it online. I’ll apply for purifying my followers.”

While she was drying Qin Xin’s hair, she asked with a smile, “You haven’t kept an eye on the company since you returned to China, right?”

“Well, you’re mischievous. All right. I will find some marketing accounts.” After saying that, Jian Xi who had become herself since returning to China was about to hang up. At the same time, Qin Muxuan’s voice rose.

“How about our studio registration?”

“Except for the industrial and commercial license, others are done. But… we don’t have enough staff.” Jian Xi paused. She then teased, “You’re well-known now. Would you like to seize the chance to advertise our studio? We can save lots of money.”

Jian Xi laughed before she finished her words. “If anti-fans know they help you, they will be outraged.”

In the entertainment industry, a rookie who could repeat emerging on the trending was no other than Qin Muxuan, although she was reluctant.

A smile climbed onto her lips, “I should charge them interest for cursing me these days.”

Jian Xi teased Qin Xin after finishing the serious conversation. She didn’t end the call until she promised to take the girl to a funfair.

The kid was overjoyed. She looked up at her mother with sparkling eyes. “Mommy, can you take me with you tomorrow? Xixi can accompany me. I won’t bother you.” The girl asked tentatively.

Her cautious attitude made the woman feel guilty and heartbroken. ‘I’m not a good mom.’ Her nose twitched. She had ignored her daughter because of her son.

Compunction overwhelmed her. She dared not to look into the kid’s watery eyes. The woman held Qin Xin in her arms, “I’m free tomorrow afternoon. Would you like to go shopping? I’ll buy you beautiful dresses.”

Qin Xin’s eyes twinkled, “Can I have an ice cream?”

The kid had weak stomach. Therefore, Qin Muxuan seldom allowed her to have cold food, especially ice creams. The daughter could only enjoy a small one. An ice cream ball should be divided into three parts. Each part was for a day, which made her grumble.

“I can buy you an ice cream ball, but you should call me Xuanxuan when others are with us.”

“All right! Buy me a mixed flavor of strawberry and chocolate.”

“Deal! Durian flavor is also okay.”

Lying on bed, they imagined a cheerful time. The two slowly fell asleep.

However, netizens went mad.

@QinXuan: Sorry. Although I don’t have a masterpiece, I’m famous and capable of drawing people’s attention. @Qin’sDesign Right?

The remark overflowed with arrogance. Apparently, it was not Qin Muxuan’s style. Jian Xi logged in Qin Muxuan’s account and sent this message. She also attached the links of Qin Muxuan’s advertisements to this post in order to publicize their studio namely the Qin’s Design.

Anti-fans dissed her furiously. Onlookers also took sides.

“God! She’s so arrogant. Who’s she? I didn’t hear about her. How cheeky she is!”

“The Qin’s Design appears out of nowhere. I have never seen it before.”Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

“Well, she said famous. She only endorses a product. That’s funny.”

“Don’t hand us your junk! Please be honest and admit that you told lies, okay? Then I might respect you for your integrity.”

Cynical netizens were picky. What was worse, the news that Qin Muxuan had paid for joining the crew pissed off antirich keyboard men.

Netizens jeered Qin Muxuan. The hashtag “Qin Xuan is a Liar” topped the trending in an instant. Jian Xi wrote another post at this time.

@QinXuan: Besides, I’m preparing my studio. Will any outstanding background worker apply for the job?

Such a naughty tone made people grit their teeth. They felt an irresistible impulse to punch her face.

Online warriors became more excited out of the blue as if they had smoked pot.

Tonight was a sleepless night.

**

When Qin Muxuan arrived at the filming site the next day, crew members harbored various feelings. Some sneered, some gloated and others worried.

However, people in the industry was adept at hiding their emotions. No one refused to give her face.

Noticing her, Qin Xiaobai trotted over and asked concernedly, “You didn’t shoot any film in M country. Is it true?”

“Yep.” Qin Muxuan rubbed his head with a tender smile. “Well, a famous star doesn’t have to have masterpiece.”

Qin Xiaobai choked up. He squinted at her, sighing, “How could you possibly joke right now?”

“If you don’t handle it right, your future will be ruined.” Xu Haiqiao walked over.

Seeing that, others who had been friends with Qin Muxuan strode over. They asked her if she needed any help.

Qin Muxuan was moved, “Thank you in advance. If I need your help, I will tell you.”

After a while, Zhang Jiayi asked actors and actresses to start shooting.

Some of them were Qin Muxuan’s friends, while some were her enemies.

As a supporting actress, Qiu Yu was known for her innocence. She detested Qin Muxuan who had stole her thunder as the woman joined their crew. Qiu Yu had ignored Qin Muxuan because Qin Muxuan didn’t piss her off. However, Qin Muxuan now sued Qiu Yu’s friend…

Qiu Yu hadn’t acted with Qin Xuan yesterday, but today there was a scene in which she would quarrel with Qin Xuan and pushed Qin Xuan onto the ground.

With downcast eyes, Qiu Yu hid her malice.

She shoved Qin Xuan when they were acting. Qin Xuan fell out of the cushion.

Qin Muxuan gasped. It was hurt. She felt her coccyx was broken.

“What’s wrong with you? Qiu Yu, you should target the cushion!” Zhang Jiayi scolded, striding forward to check Qin Muxuan’s injury.

Qiu Yu didn’t plan to offend the director. She pretended to be freaked out, stretching her hands to pull Qin Muxuan up from the ground. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to do that. Are you all right?”

“I didn’t push you hard…” Scowling, Qiu Yu acted weak, “I didn’t expect that you’re so thin.”

Her behavior disgusted Qin Muxuan who didn’t want to suffer again, so Qin Muxuan rose to her feet slowly with the help of Jian Xi who hurried over.

“Are you okay?” Zhang Jiayi gesticulated towards a worker while asking.

Too many people surrounded Qin Muxuan who was stuck in rumors. She was reluctant to be labeled a diva. Therefore, the woman held back her fury, “I’m fine. I was just taken aback.”

“Sorry for inadequate protection in the filming site.”

“It has nothing to do with that.” Qin Muxuan squinted at Qiu Yu and then smiled, “Ms. Qiu didn’t mean to do so. I’ll be more cautious later.”

Qiu Yu changed her countenance, pretending to be regretful, “Sorry, I won’t push her that hard.”

She again passed the buck.

Qin Muxuan didn’t haggle with Qiu Yu on the spot. Holding back the pain in her tailbone, Qin Muxuan restarted shooting.

The scene was finished after three rounds of reshooting.

The director discharged Qin Muxuan in advance because of the accident.

It was not Xu Haiqiao’s turn, so she came to Qin Muxuan. “Are you really okay?” Murmured Xu Haiqiao.
