Chapter 225 It must be an illusion!
"What kind of gift?"
Sister Meng couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Meng, you forgot, I used my film pay to invest in the company, half with Mei Ge. After more than a year, we are finally going to see some money back. Isn't this a great gift?"
Qin Xi was really happy. Ever since "The Abyss and You", she hadn't joined the crew for a long time because she predicted that Fang Xianyu and Ai Fei would make trouble after they finished filming "Spring Day". In order not to cause trouble to the new crew, Qin Xi didn't join the crew for a long time.
It has been a long time since she made a big income, and her endorsements were all lost because of this incident. However, many brands lost patience internally and regretted terminating their cooperation with Qin Xi without waiting for the results.
The pay for the films could not keep up, and the business was also slow for the time being. In addition, Qin Xi was no longer the Qin Xi who could feed the whole family by herself. She also had to support the whole family of the studio. The advancement of the release date of "The Legend of Yan Qing" reduced Qin Xi's pressure sharply.
Qin Xi suddenly understood why Fang Xianyu was so unscrupulous in making money. Not only did she have to support her studio, she also had to support so many professional haters. Money was burning, no wonder she had to sell her house now.
Speaking of the house, Qin Xi couldn't help but think back to the day when Gu Chenxing confessed, and her headache started again.
"Have you explained everything clearly this time? Have you concealed anything? I'm telling you, these two times, I didn't mind you hiding things from me because I thought you were sincere to me. But if you keep doing this again and again, I'll be really angry! Think about it again, is there anything else that slipped through the net?"
Gu Chenxing seemed to have thought of something, his face changed slightly, and he stretched out a finger weakly with a flattering look, "There is... there really is one..."
Qin Xi was already numb and speechless.
"explain!!!"
"I... moved downstairs from your house..."
Qin Xi: “!!!”
"Are you... okay? Why did you move downstairs from my house? When did it happen?!"
Gu Chenxing hesitated, "It's just that you were just exposed to the tax scandal not long ago. I thought that you had a bad mental state before, and I was afraid that you couldn't bear the blow and relapsed, and did something stupid again. I just wanted to be closer to you..."
Qin Xi rolled her eyes. "If I committed suicide, would you rush over to send me to the hospital immediately? Please, Gu Chenxing, be more clear-headed. Am I that fragile?"
"Care makes you confused~"
Qin Xi was really speechless, he felt wronged!
"How long have you rented it?"
"I...bought it..."
Qin Xi was shocked as if struck by lightning.
"Are you crazy? This community is a mid-range community. The location is remote, the environment is so-so, and the security is average. The only advantage is that there are many school districts around. Why buy here? Do you have children who go to school?"
Gu Chenxing didn't say anything, but his expression told her, how is it possible?
"Then why did you buy this place? The price of housing here is not cheap now because of the school district. No matter how rich your family is, you can't afford to do this. Yes, your family is not short of this, but you should buy something more luxurious, not to mention a villa, at least a large flat. This shabby community is too cheap for you..."
Gu Chenxing looked at Qin Xi with his big eyes flashing, "Oh, if this community is so bad, why did you buy it? And you bought four units at once?"
Qin Xi suddenly went berserk, trying hard to control his emotions that were on the verge of collapse.
"Because it's cheap here! I relied on that little pay in the beginning, so of course I had to choose the one with the best value for money and the easiest to cash in!"
Gu Chenxing turned into a hundred thousand whys and asked anxiously.
"Cash them out? Are you going to sell them? Are you going to exchange them? Where are you going to exchange them to?"
Qin Xi replied helplessly, "Not now. I have invested all my money in the drama, so I don't have any spare money to buy a property. What I mean is that there are many school districts here, so it will be more convenient to rent or sell in the future. Why did you bring this up? Given your conditions, these are not issues you should consider!"
"I really haven't thought about these things. The only thing I considered was that you are here..."
Qin Xi: “…”
How could it be so sudden and sentimental? I didn't know how to react for a moment.
Gu Chenxing's expression straightened and he continued.
"In fact, I didn't dare to tell you about my family background before. First, I was worried that you would be afraid of my father's background and alienate me. Second, I was afraid that you would think of me as a rich second-generation who spends money recklessly."
"From childhood to adulthood, my uncle has given me so much in every way. No matter how big and successful his business is, it has nothing to do with me. No matter how much he loves me, how can I continue to spend his money endlessly? As for my father, heh... ever since I left that home with my mother, I have never asked him for a penny."
Gu Chenxing laughed at himself, "Although I was born in such a family, I always feel that if you spend dirty money on yourself, you will have to pay a price, just like that kidnapping."
Gu Chenxing's eyes flashed with determination, "I have already made up my mind to break away from him. No matter now or in the future, I will not take his money, and I will not get involved in his business!"
"What I want to tell you is that they have nothing to do with my buying this house. I am not some extravagant rich second generation who spends money arbitrarily. This house is my favorite. Money can't buy my happiness. How can it be cheap?"
After listening to Gu Chenxing's words, Qin Xi didn't know whether to admire or sigh. In the end, he sighed. After all, he was a young man full of vigor and vitality, but his ideas were still too simple.
"Don't blame me for speaking harshly. Your idea does sound noble and courageous at first glance, but in fact, blood ties are inseparable. Even if you never spend his money or inherit his family business, you are his son after all. Just based on this, your starting point and your resources are beyond the reach of ordinary people, not to mention the preferential treatment you receive from those who know the situation. Can you cut off such an invisible advantage?"
Gu Chenxing lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "No one has ever said these words to me. But in fact, I understand what you said. Since entering the entertainment industry, this feeling has become stronger. But I don't know why I am so awkward and pretentious. The more I am treated well, the more I want to break free from it and make a name for myself with my own abilities."
"I hope that when people mention me in the future, I will no longer be labeled as the gang's prince, or Gu Lishen's son, but just Gu Chenxing!"
Qin Xi looked at Gu Chenxing who uttered these powerful words. He looked more and more like the one on the screen in his previous life.
Yes, when you stand on the podium of an international film festival, your name will be known throughout the country and abroad, and your future social influence will far exceed that of your father.
Gu Chenxing's achievements in his previous life ignited Qin Xi's ambition in this life. Reaching the top is also Qin Xi's goal, and she is also looking forward to the day when she can meet Gu Chenxing at the top.
Gu Chenxing seemed to feel Qin Xi's trust and expectations for him. He looked at Qin Xi and smiled at each other.
Their eyes met, and Qin Xi had a question in his heart that he couldn't help but say.
"Is your salary so high? After just two scenes, is it enough to buy a house in Beijing?"
Is the love for men in the domestic entertainment industry so blatant?
"Of course it's not enough. Although I don't spend my uncle and dad's money, I can spend the money my mom left behind~"
Qin Xi: “…”
Was she a little touched just now? It must be an illusion!
