Chapter 139 Heavy Rain (Ch 139)

The movie’s withdrawal became a hot topic the next day.

It happened to be the weekend, and a large number of marketing accounts and netizens,

They swarmed in like sharks smelling blood.

Lu Xun secretly photographed Zhou Shuren: “Fuck! It’s been withdrawn. Does this mean that it’s confirmed to be a plagiarism?”

Gangnam Pig Factory: “No! I’ve been looking forward to this movie for a long time!”

Tanshengpass: “Although, I feel that Qi Jia is really innocent in this matter. He is completely unaware of this.”

Keyboard hurts people: “It’s good to withdraw the film! Those who feel sorry for Qi Jia, why didn’t they say he was innocent when he took the money.”

Cherry Maru Duzi: “The above person said it well. When I saw the movie was withdrawn from the theater, I was so excited that I lay on the bed and spanked myself!”

Your breasts touched me: “It’s so funny, little black guy, you said it was plagiarism? If you have the guts, show me the evidence!”

Suddenly, there was a wave of collective criticism of Qi Jia on the Internet.

But compared to the excited netizens, people in the entertainment industry are silent about this matter.

No one spoke out, whether criticizing or supporting.

Because several major companies have issued notices to their artists, not allowing them to discuss this matter online.

It is not allowed to take advantage of the traffic, otherwise if you bring trouble upon yourself, you will bear the consequences at your own risk.

After the incident, friends in the circle like Xu Zheng and Huang Bo also called to ask Qi Jia if he had offended anyone.

Qi Jia was also puzzled by this, although he suspected that it was the company’s doing.

But he couldn’t tell anyone about the lack of evidence, so he could only say that he didn’t know and that he might have walked into trouble.

“It looks like it’s going to rain!”

3:00 p.m.

Coming out of the company’s underground garage, Qi Jia looked out the car window at the sky filled with dark clouds and said casually,

Just as he finished speaking, he heard a rumbling sound of thunder and a few faint purple lightning flashed through the clouds.

“Yes, the weather forecast says there will be heavy rain today!”

The assistant also looked over and said,

After saying this, seeing that Qi Jia was not in a good mood, he added,

“But a heavy rainstorm is perfect for sleeping. Anyway, the company is fine, so why don’t you just stay home and have a good rest.”

Qi Jia glanced at the assistant and suddenly smiled.

“Yiran, you are so smart. Every day, I ask you to do nothing but order takeout and get milk tea.

Following me will somewhat bury your abilities. How about I talk to Sister Yuwen about it?

Let her guide you and become a good agent like her in the future.”

He said this for the assistant’s own good.

If we cannot reverse the online public opinion, we will soon be abandoned by capital.

If I let my assistant follow me like this, it would only cause trouble for her.

It would be better for her to ask Chen Yuwen to find a good home for her while she still has some energy left.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the assistant immediately glared and said angrily,

“What! Do you think I’m noisy? Or do you think I eat too much?

Why didn’t you say that you were burying my abilities before? What do you want to do now? Are you trying to kill me after I’ve done my job? “

Qi Jia didn’t expect the assistant to react like this. He was slightly stunned and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by her.

“What are you trying to do with your pouty mouth? Are you trying to act sentimental or to quibble? I’m telling you it’s no use, I won’t fall for it!

Anyway, I won’t leave. Not to mention Sister Yuwen, even if Manager Zhao comes, it won’t help! “

After saying that, the assistant snorted, crossed his arms, and sat aside, hugging the pillow and sulking.

Seeing the assistant pretending to be stupid, Qi Jia smiled again and spoke after a while.

“Actually, I just want to say that you used the idiom wrong. This is not the way to use the idiom to kill the donkey after it has done its work.”

“Then what should I use? To seduce and then abandon?”

The assistant turned around and looked at him, his expression still angry.

Qi Jia thought about it, made a joke and said,

“It would be more accurate to describe it as killing pigs without loading them, hahaha~”

“Fuck you~”

After hearing Qi Jia’s metaphor of calling himself a pig, the assistant got so angry that he picked up a pillow and beat him up.

“Okay, okay, I was wrong, stop hitting me.”

After being beaten, Qi Jia became obedient.

He leaned against the car window, glanced at the assistant who was also out of breath, smiled and said slowly,

“If you don’t want to leave, then don’t leave. Just make do with what you have from now on~”

The car returned to Galaxy Bay.

After asking the driver to take the assistant home, Qi Jia went upstairs alone.

It was raining heavily outside the window.

Qi Jia, who had nothing to do, moved a sofa chair to the French window and opened the refrigerator to get something to eat.

But I found a can of beer unexpectedly. I don’t remember when I bought it.

I guess it was what was left over from Aunt Wang’s beer duck last time, and she gave it to the duck on a rainy day.

Lying on the sofa, taking a sip of beer and a bite of duck neck,

Watching the big raindrops hitting the glass, making a crackling sound,

The noise was very loud, but Qi Jia felt his irritable mood gradually calm down.

At this time, the phone rang and my mother called.

“Mom, what’s wrong?”

After answering the phone, Qi Jia said in a casual tone,

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard my mother complaining,

“Can’t I call you if everything is fine? Since you didn’t call back, I have no choice but to call you myself.”

After she finished speaking, without waiting for Qi Jia to speak, she continued,

“The construction of our new house has started today. Your father asked your uncle to help find someone to draw the design.

The construction team was also invited from the city. We have all seen the renderings and they are really beautiful.

But unfortunately, it will definitely not be completed this year. It will not be completed until June next year at the earliest.

Now your sister and her friends have also returned and bought a store in town, saying they want to open a small supermarket.

The new house also left a large room for the two of them, so it would be convenient for them to come back and stay whenever they wanted.

Don’t you like quietness? I’ve discussed it with your dad, and the third floor is reserved for you.

This way, when you have time to go home, you won’t be worried about being disturbed at night…”

Listening to his mother’s chattering, Qi Jia smiled and asked,

“Mom, you’ve said so much, but how big is the house? Have you completed all the procedures for the land?”

“Don’t worry, it was your husband who asked the secretary to help with the land formalities.

It’s over 300 square meters, everything is legal and compliant, and all the documents have been obtained.”

Qi Jia nodded and said,

“As long as there is no problem with the formalities, it’s good. If the money is not enough, tell me and I will transfer more money to you.”

On the other end of the phone, my mother answered a few times, then seemed to hesitate for a while before saying,

“Son, actually I want to say that our family life is good now.

Such a big house, so much money, I, your mother, would never dare to dream of it in my lifetime.

It’s so tiring outside, why don’t you come back? Your dad and I promise not to urge you to go on blind dates or get married.

Oh, there is nothing good about being a celebrity. People scold you online every day.”

Qi Jia smiled after hearing this, thinking that this must be the real reason why his mother called.

“Mom, you’re overthinking it. Which celebrity doesn’t get scolded? This is normal.

This is the marketing plan the company made for me. The more I appear online, the more popular I become.

So, don’t worry, just enjoy it.

The people below me do all the work, I don’t feel tired at all, it’s very good.”

“Ah? Is that so? Your company is doing well, why would you be scolded online?

I really don’t understand what you celebrities are thinking. You are so happy to be scolded…”

After hearing this, my mother didn’t know whether what Qi Jia said was true or not, and she kept talking for a long time.

We talked for almost an hour before hanging up the phone.

It is said that the sound of rain helps one sleep. After putting down his phone, Qi Jia drank the remaining beer in one gulp.

After stretching, he curled up on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep.

The rain outside the window is getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of slowing down.

The street lights downstairs came on and it was already past eight o’clock in the evening.

Usually, Aunt Wang would come over to cook at around 5 o’clock.

But it happened that she took leave to go back to her hometown these two days, so Qi Jia has been sleeping until now and no one came to disturb him.

Until the phone that fell to the ground rang, with the dim light coming in from the window,

Qi Jia groped for his phone in a daze. He didn’t even look at who was calling and answered the call directly.

The next second, amid the rustling sound of rain, a voice of someone crying in disarray could be heard from the other end of the line.

“Qi Jia, come out and pick me up, your security guards won’t let me in~”
