Ji Fengfan really wanted to test Xia Qingqian. After all, he felt that her reaction was a little strange during the day. Now, hearing her admit openly that she did spend the night in the hotel, it seemed that his suspicion was a little unnecessary.

And if she really was the one who drugged him, then that would be exactly what she wanted. She would definitely cry, make a fuss, and threaten to commit suicide in front of him, and then get what she wanted.

It's not like he hasn't had contact with these female artists in the company before. They either want fame or profit, or they want money, it's all the same.

Ji Fengfan stood up and said calmly, "I have a video conference, just close the door when you leave." Then he went back to the study.

Xia Qingqian heaved a sigh of relief after watching him walk into the study. She patted her chest and whispered, "You scared me to death."

Then she quickly cleaned the table, put the dishes into the dishwasher, wiped the table and kitchen countertop, picked up her pink lunch box, and didn't even say hello to Ji Fengfan.

After all, they said they had a video conference, so Xia Qingqian didn't bother them and just opened the door and left.

Ji Fengfan came out after the meeting. The living room was very quiet. Not only was it very quiet, but it was also pitch black. When Xia Qingqian left, she turned off all the lights for him. This was a habit she developed since she was a child to save money, and she would turn off the lights whenever she left.

With the help of the moonlight outside the window, he walked to the switch at the door and turned on the light. He saw that the table had been cleaned. He walked to the glass door of the kitchen, which was also clean and tidy.

He looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost eleven o'clock. He had only been in the video conference for an hour or so. It should have been late when Xia Qingqian left.

He walked back into the study, picked up the mobile phone on the desk, opened WeChat, found the sunflower avatar and clicked on it. His fingers tapped on the screen a few times quickly, and a message was sent.

【Are you home yet?】

After all, she was an employee of her company, and she came back so late because she cooked for her. She remembered that she said she lived in the company dormitory, which was actually quite far from him.

Xia Qingqian had just opened the door of her apartment and returned to her home when her phone vibrated. She was lucky today. She saw a taxi as soon as she went downstairs. And because it was late, there was no traffic jam, so she returned smoothly.

After she entered the house, she put down her bag, took out her cell phone from the bag and saw the WeChat message that Ji Fengfan had sent her five minutes ago. Thinking that the boss had some instructions, she quickly clicked on it to read the message, and then immediately replied.

[Boss Ji, I just got home. Is there something wrong?] She was a little confused. After thinking carefully, she wiped the table clean, cleaned the kitchen, sorted the unfinished dishes she bought today and put them in the refrigerator. She took away the garbage before leaving and turned off the lights in the living room and kitchen...

There shouldn't be any problem. She has pushed all the chairs in the restaurant back to their original positions and arranged them neatly.

She had discovered before that Ji Fengfan seemed to have some obsessive-compulsive disorder. Everything in his house was in perfect order, and it didn't look like someone lived there every day. So before she left, she checked it once more to make sure everything was in order before leaving.

There was a reply soon.

[You don’t have to cook tomorrow night. Let’s eat out if you have something to do.]

After Ji Fengfan replied to the message, he let it go. Just now, Xiaowu said in the group that the second brother would be returning to China tomorrow night, and they were going to go to the third brother's bar to get together. The eldest brother's condition hasn't been right recently, so he asked about his situation.

It turned out that I could take a break for a meal. Xia Qingqian quickly replied with a "OK." Then she hummed happily, put on her pajamas and walked towards the bathroom, preparing to take a good bath before going to bed.

After Xia Qingqian finished her bath and lay back on the bed to check her phone, she saw that her agent had called her several times. She quickly called back, and the phone was picked up after only one ring.

"Where have you been? You didn't even answer the phone." Yang Manni's capable voice came, and even her speaking speed was faster than others.

"What's wrong, Sister Manny? I was just taking a shower." Xia Qingqian got out of bed while talking on the phone and prepared to get a glass of water.

"What's wrong? You haven't been working for half a month. You must have starved to death." Yang Manni yelled on the other end of the phone.

Xia Qingqian subconsciously held the phone farther away, touched her nose and said guiltily, "What can I do? You didn't look for me..."

"So it's my fault?" Yang Manni raised her voice.

Xia Qingqian quickly smiled and said ingratiatingly, "How can I blame Sister Manni? It must be my own fault. I am now seriously and deeply reflecting on myself..."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I just got you a role in a play. You'll play the third female lead. Your character is quite likable. You can go to the set tomorrow and I'll send you the script later." Yang Manni was about to hang up the phone when Xia Qingqian hurriedly stopped her.

"Wait a minute, Sister Manny, what's going on? I have to go to the set tomorrow, but you only gave me the script tonight! Did I hear it right? The filming has already started?" Xia Qingqian couldn't believe the information she heard. It didn't matter whether she was the third or fourth female lead. What mattered was that the filming would start tomorrow, and she only got the script tonight. This really showed her respect. How could she accept it?

"You heard it right. We're going to start filming tomorrow. What are you afraid of? It's not like you haven't taken on this kind of role before. I believe in you." Yang Manni was very impressed with Xia Qingqian's acting skills and professional ability, and had full confidence in her. The popular third female lead was banned today because of negative news that suddenly broke out. The filming of this drama has already started, so they can only find someone to take over temporarily and continue filming, and then make up for the previous part. Fortunately, it's only the third female lead, so it's not a big problem to change someone else to reshoot.

The director was very familiar with Yang Manni, so he asked her to help find candidates. In order to keep the wealth within the family, he would of course give priority to the people he had. Among these people, only Xia Qingqian could take over this drama, because the director was notoriously strict and had high requirements. If he arranged for other people to take over, they would probably be scolded and come back crying.

Besides, she had not considered recommending anyone else, not only because of Xia Qingqian's strong professional level, but also because she was the third female lead. She had read the script and found the character setting to be very good and she had a lot of scenes. If the ratings were high, she could also become popular, which would be a new opportunity for her.

"Sister Manny, thank you so much. Please notify me at least two days in advance in the future." Xia Qingqian naturally wanted to take the job. If she didn't, how could she save money to buy a house for her retirement?

"If you have the time, go and take a look at the script. I just sent it to your email." This time Yang Manni hung up the phone decisively.

Xia Qingqian took a cup of water, sat down at the small desk, opened her laptop, clicked on her mailbox and saw the email she had received a minute ago.

The attachment to the email contained the name of the drama.

——"Mountains and Seas".
