Chapter 534: Chapter 534 Narrow path of enemies_1

Xia Qingtian walks her talk.

After receiving a call from Bo Jingyan, she knew the matter was already settled.

She immediately set off with Cheng Bingbing, bought some gifts on the road, and arrived at the hotel where Director Zhao’s crew were staying.

When they arrived, they just saw the elevator doors about to close.

Xia Qingtian immediately quickened her pace and called out, "Wait for us."

However, the person in the elevator seemed to not hear her, completely motionless. Fortunately, she arrived just in time before the elevator doors closed, pressed the elevator button, and the elevator doors slowly opened again.

When she saw who was in the elevator, she scoffed immediately.

It was actually Shi Qian!

What a way for enemies to meet.

Upon seeing Xia Qingtian, Shi Qian looked disdainful, crossed her arms, and looked at her with contempt, "Isn’t this Xia Qingtian who is shamefully content being the third wheel? If I were you, I would be too ashamed to show my face, surely hiding at home."

Xia Qingtian looked at her in disbelief.

She had really seen shameless people before, but she had never seen someone as shameless as Shi Qian.

"Oh, so you know that being the third wheel is shameful and disgraceful?" she retorted sarcastically, "I thought you were naturally shameless and didn’t realize it."

Snickering, Shi Qian retorted, "Well, you’re the one being called a mistress now, not me!"

Thinking about the insults hurled at Xia Qingtian online, she felt delighted, and a sincere sneer crept onto her face.

But Xia Qingtian remained calm, instead mocking in response, "If I bring out my marriage certificate with Jingyan, will those netizens continue to vilify me as the shameless mistress or turn against you, the real third party?"

Shi Qian suddenly lost her smile, retorting in disbelief, "You wouldn’t dare!"

"Want to try me?" Xia Qingtian challenged.

Shi Qian, looking increasingly unpleasant, suddenly cheered up and smugly said, "You and Brother Jingyan have already applied for divorce. Once the cooling-off period is over, you won’t be husband and wife."

Xia Qingtian looked at her as if she was looking at a fool.

She kindly reminded Shi Qian, "You should know too, Jingyan and I are still in the divorce cooling-off period. If I were to change my mind and not willing to divorce, the previous divorce application can be immediately revoked."

Upon hearing this, Shi Qian felt as if an invisible hand was strangling her, leaving her speechless.

Seeing Shi Qian finally silenced, Xia Qingtian withdrew her gaze disdainfully.

Soon, the elevator stopped.

Shi Qian and Xia Qingtian exited the elevator together.

Upon seeing this, Shi Qian frowned.

Several floors of this hotel were contracted by the crew, and this floor was specifically for the core creators such as directors, scriptwriters, and producers.

She came here because the director called her, said he had important business to discuss.

Why was Xia Qingtian getting off on this floor?

With this thought, Shi Qian subconsciously looked at her, noticed Cheng Bingbing following behind her and the gifts in her hand, and immediately thought of a possibility.

She sneered at Xia Qingtian and Cheng Bingbing, "Xia Qingtian, you can’t possibly still be fantasizing about sneaking Cheng Bingbing, this defeated and decaying flower, into the crew, can you?"

Xia Qingtian ignored her and looked at Cheng Bingbing, afraid that Shi Qian’s words might upset her.

Cheng Bingbing felt Xia Qingtian’s gaze and responded with resolve, "I’m fine. I won’t be easily hurt anymore."

Seeing this, Xia Qingtian sighed in relief.

Shi Qian, seeing their silence, thought she hit the mark.

She boasted more arrogantly, "Actually, if you want a small role to play, it’s not impossible. The crew is still short of some minor roles, as the leading actress, I do have some sway with Director Zhao. If you beg me, maybe I can put in a good word for you."

Disgusted, Xia Qingtian only glanced at her, "Are you worthy of us begging you?"

Far from angry after hearing these words, Shi Qian said threateningly, "In that case, I guarantee that Cheng Bingbing won’t have a chance to even play as an extra in the crew."

"Our Bingbing is beautiful, and beat you for the best supporting actress at the Huaji Awards..."Xia Qingtian confidently defended, still holding Bingbing’s hand, "To play second fiddle to you? You don’t deserve her."

Remembering Cheng Bingbing beaten her for the Huaji Award, Shi Qian’s face soured.

What if Cheng Bingbing won the best supporting actress at the Huaji Awards? Didn’t the lead role in Director Zhao’s movie still end up in her hands?

Once she successfully starred in Director Zhao’s movie, she would be the best leading actress, the movie queen!

A small best supporting actress award, she did not need to worry.

With that, Shi Qian’s face gradually softened, "If you don’t want to play second fiddle to me, what are you here for? Don’t belittle it with your words yet your actions show a keen desire to participate in Director Zhao’s film or else don’t say I didn’t warn you."

Xia Qingtian smirked confidently, "Indeed, we do intend to participate in Director Zhao’s film."

A disdainful expression appeared on Shi Qian’s face, ready to ridicule Xia Qingtian and Cheng Bingbing.

But Xia Qingtian wasn’t so gullible. Instead of taking her bait, she led it with, "However, what we want is not a minor role, it is—"

Here, she deliberately slowed down her words and said word by word, "The leading role!"

It seemed Shi Qian heard some big joke, she dismissively retorted, "You all? Want to snatch my leading role?"

"Yes, that’s right. Us." Xia Qingtian nodded, her face calm in the face of Shi Qian’s mocking.

For some reason, seeing her calmness, Shi Qian had a bad gut feeling, as if she really could have the leading role snatched from her hands.

But she quickly dismissed this thought.

No, that’s impossible!

The leading lady for Director Zhao’s film was her role, Xia Qingtian had no way of taking it!

She was just trying to scare her.

With this thought, Shi Qian regained her composure. Since Xia Qingtian dared to scare her, she must teach her a lesson.

"Since you’re so confident that you can take my leading role, why not make a bet with me?" she suggested, a scheming look in her eyes as she looked at Xia Qingtian.

Xia Qingtian did not immediately accept her proposal, instead she asked, "What are your terms?"

After countless thoughts flashed through Shi Qian’s mind, she looked at Xia Qingtian resolutely, "If you really take away my leading role, then I will kneel down, I will leave the entertainment industry forever, never to be in conflict with Cheng Bingbing."

Xia Qingtian asked again, "What if I lose?"
