The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief-Chapter 1022 - 417: Xi Mohan’s New Girlfriend

Looking up at Gu Xiyan, who was flying around in a white ancient costume on the wire rig above, Song Qiao found it incredibly pleasing to the eye, even if the live shoot wasn’t as captivating as on TV.

Just as she was engrossed, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Hey, you up front... come here for a moment."

For some reason, even without turning around, Song Qiao had a feeling she was the one being called. She turned her head and indeed saw a woman not far away looking at her.

Seeing Song Qiao turn, the woman immediately spoke in a somewhat commanding tone, "Yes, I’m talking to you, come over!"

Song Qiao’s gaze settled on the person, and then shifted slightly to the side, where she saw a woman in costume sitting next to her, probably in her twenties.

She looked at the costume on the woman and realized she was indeed part of this crew, but she didn’t know her, let alone recognized her.

After thinking carefully about the cast list she had checked earlier, she seemed sure this production didn’t have someone like this woman?

The woman seemed a bit angry when Song Qiao didn’t come over after a while, and bluntly said, "I called you, why are you dawdling? Hurry up, don’t you know our time is precious?"

Furrowing her brow, clearly not liking the woman’s tone, but still, Song Qiao lifted her steps and walked over.

The area was bustling with busy staff, constantly coming and going. Song Qiao stopped in front of the two, and with a calm and somewhat polite tone, asked, "May I ask what you need?"

Song Qiao’s voice sounded quite nice; her tone was gentle yet very pleasant to the ear.

Just as Ning Wan said, her voice was definitely a favorite among those who loved good tones.

Upon hearing Song Qiao’s voice, the actress who was lounging on a chair with her eyes closed like a boss suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Song Qiao. Seeing how beautiful Song Qiao was, a wave of jealousy surged within her.

It’s common for a woman to feel jealous when seeing another woman more beautiful than herself.

Immediately, she took off her sunglasses, squinted slightly at Song Qiao, and with a hint of arrogance, said, "I’m thirsty now, go buy me a cup of coffee. Remember, I want it from that famous coffee shop on Wutong Street, and you have twenty minutes!"

Hearing the actress’ words, Song Qiao slightly furrowed her brow again, surprised that she was being asked to buy coffee...

And the actress even specified where to buy it, giving only twenty minutes.

The funny thing is, Song Qiao wasn’t even her subordinate, yet the woman commanded her as if it was her right, which made Song Qiao secretly amused.

Finally, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud and instantly refused, "Sorry, I don’t have the time to get you coffee right now, and I don’t even know where Wutong Street is. If you’re really thirsty and want coffee, maybe you can have your assistant get it. I don’t know you, and there’s no need for me to buy coffee for you!"

Song Qiao did not hold back, speaking exactly her mind. She was never one to be easily pushed around. Asking her to fetch coffee?

Check if you even have the credentials to be served first.

Even Gu Xiyan didn’t instruct her like that; Song Qiao chose to buy for herself.

Upon hearing Song Qiao’s words, the actress’ face turned from blue to white. In her heart, she thought about her status here, with everyone practically treating her like a cherished princess, and no one dared to refuse her like this.

Immediately, she stood up, wearing twelve-centimeter high-heels, and met Song Qiao at eye level, stating, "Do you know who I am? Asking you to buy a cup of coffee is an honor. Now, I’m giving you another chance. Will you go or not?"

Song Qiao looked the actress up and down but didn’t recognize her at all. She smiled, "I don’t know who you are, so why should I fetch coffee for you? Even if you’re a wealthy heiress from whichever family, you have no right to command me to get your coffee. If you want to be served, here’s a good suggestion..."

With a nonchalant smile on her face, not waiting for the actress in front to reply, Song Qiao continued, "Go home and be your pampered darling well. Stop embarrassing yourself, alright?"

After saying this, Song Qiao didn’t feel anything wrong. Instead, she felt significantly better.

She was already feeling quite frustrated, especially due to what Zuo Yuqing said to her yesterday, which dampened her mood until today. Even after being pampered by Lu Jingchen all night and again this morning, she still felt unsettled.

Song Qiao couldn’t find a way to vent her frustration until someone decided to step right into the line of fire, which Song Qiao was only too happy to oblige.

The actress’s assistant beside them looked surprised. Initially, upon seeing Song Qiao’s back, she assumed Song Qiao was an assistant to one of the stars in the crew. But once Song Qiao walked over, she already realized from Song Qiao’s attire and demeanor that Song Qiao was not an ordinary person nor anyone’s assistant in the crew or even a crew member.

Before she could even say anything, her boss had already bossily ordered Song Qiao around, which made her heart skip a beat.

The actress looked at Song Qiao, seething with anger, "What did you say? It’s one thing if you don’t know who I am, but how dare you say such things? Do you believe I can make it impossible for you to stay in An City?"

Song Qiao glanced up and down at the actress in front of her again, then laughed, "Then I’ll be waiting to see that."

The actress was so furious that she almost started trembling and raised her hand to slap Song Qiao.

However, Song Qiao wasn’t about to stand idly by and let someone slap her. As she saw her raise her hand, her eyes narrowed dangerously, and when the hand came down, she swiftly grabbed it, her voice carrying a hint of coldness, "Want to hit me?"

The actress was the type with more brawn than brains and lacked any skills. When Song Qiao caught her wrist, she was like a fish with clipped wings, merely attempting to pull her hand back forcefully, "You... what are you doing? Let go of me..."

Song Qiao sneered, "Weren’t you about to hit me? It would be foolish of me to let you go..."

At this moment, the actress’s gaze landed right behind Song Qiao. With a mix of surprise and pitifulness, she cried out, "Brother Mo Han, someone is trying to hit me. Come save me..."

Brother Mo Han?

Hearing this address, Song Qiao was momentarily stunned, and then she heard footsteps behind her.

Strangely, even though it wasn’t quiet around and many were moving, Song Qiao could immediately identify whose footsteps they were.

Especially with that actress’s shout of "Brother Mo Han," Song Qiao instantly realized who was approaching from behind.

While she was in a daze, the man had already approached closely from behind. Before she could react, she felt a large hand on her wrist, and a deep voice sounded by her ear, "Let her go."

The man gripped her hand tightly, making Song Qiao feel as if her wrist might be crushed by him any second.

It was a familiar voice she had heard countless times. This man had hurt many girls around her but couldn’t compare to his affection for Ning Wan.

But now, Ning Wan is missing, and here he is with another woman.

Isn’t it ridiculous?

Isn’t it ironic?

Maybe, but mostly it felt endlessly sorrowful. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

She had already heard rumors a few days ago, saying Xi Mocheng’s new girlfriend was a slightly famous actress. At that time, she didn’t believe it, but now she couldn’t deny the truth.

Because Xi Mocheng had grabbed her wrist, and the man seemed not to control his strength, Song Qiao felt a pain in her wrist and instinctively let go of the actress’s hand.

The actress immediately lifted her skirt, covered her wrist, and ran to Xi Mohan’s side, her voice pitiful, "Brother Mo Han, look at what this woman did to my wrist, it hurts..."

Song Qiao felt that once the actress started speaking, Xi Mocheng immediately loosened his grip on her wrist, and before she could turn around, she heard the man’s deep voice by her ear, "Go to the hospital to have it checked later on. Rest in the afternoon, don’t film today. Come back tomorrow when you’re rested."

The actress obediently agreed at once.

Meanwhile, Song Qiao, holding her wrist, slowly turned to look at the man and woman behind her, her face increasingly filled with irony.

This was her first time seeing Xi Mohan since returning to the country.

Or more accurately, it was the first time seeing this man since she left five years ago.

Back when she still kept in touch with Ning Wan, she often heard from Ning Yuan about Xi Mohan, but mostly about how he bullied Ning Wan, how he wouldn’t let her leave An City, and even sent people to monitor her... those sorts of things.

In these five years, Xi Mohan’s features had become even more resolute, his handsome face as expressionless as ever. He truly was a thousand-year-old iceberg, and Song Qiao had even wondered if this man could smile.

Did he even know how to smile?

She certainly had never seen this man smile.
