Chapter 482: Chapter 471: Shocking! Qiao Jing and Gu Yunchen Embroiled in a Scandal!
“Judging from this figure, I’m sure she’s definitely a great beauty, and her acting is good too. Could she be the female lead?”
“The person above, haven’t you seen the official stills? The female lead of this drama is Qiao Mengtong, whose acting and figure aren’t that great. It’s like heaven and earth compared to the woman in the video. In my opinion, this is a beautiful actress who doesn’t want to reveal her name.”
“Following up, I’m a crew member, and I’ll let you in on a little secret: the female lead has been changed, tentatively. As for why, the official announcement will be made later. The Miss in the video is indeed a great beauty, but she’s not an actress.”
The comments that followed were all praising Qiao Jing, and as Zhan Qipei read them, he couldn’t help but smile with pride on his face.
She’s truly his wife!
His wife is so talented!
If his wife made her debut, he would definitely be the president of her fan club!
No sooner had this thought occurred to him than Zhan Qipei dismissed it himself.
His wife was so beautiful, she was for his eyes only; others should not even think about it.
One comment stuck out like a sore thumb among the others, instantly catching Zhan Qipei’s attention.
“Did you guys not see the woman with the pixelated face sitting in Director Gu’s chair?”
This comment immediately got a lot of responses.
“I didn’t even notice until you mentioned it! How could she sit in Director Gu’s chair?! She must be no ordinary person!”
“The two of them must have a good relationship in private; otherwise, Director Gu wouldn’t let her sit in his chair.”
“…”
The replies under this comment became more and more outrageous, even suggesting that Qiao Jing and Gu Yunchen were in a relationship?!
The proud expression on Zhan Qipei’s face instantly stiffened as he watched the video again.
This time, not only did he notice where Qiao Jing was sitting, but he also took note that the woman and the male lead were holding the same prop sword.
His focus was more on the former, though.
He had never heard the name Gu Yunchen before, nor had Qiao Jing mentioned it.
So, who was this man who had suddenly appeared?
Why did Qiao Jing seem to have a close relationship with him?
Zhan Qipei’s face darkened in an instant, and in a low voice, he said,
“Tang Yan, investigate a person for me.”
Tang Yan’s gaze moved away from his laptop screen, and seeing Zhan Qipei’s face turning terrifyingly dark, he asked,
“Investigate whom?”
Just a moment ago, his boss had a look of joy on his face; how had it turned so dark in the next second?
He could suggest his boss take up a course in face-changing opera.

With a furrowed brow, Zhan Qipei’s gaze was fixed tightly on the screen showing Qiao Jing sitting in the director’s chair, his thin lips parting slightly as he uttered three words.
“Gu Yunchen.”
He had paused the video on his phone screen, where Qiao Jing was sitting next to a man dressed all in black, standing guard-like by her side, so close their clothes were rubbing together!
Tang Yan thought for a moment.
“Boss, I think I’ve heard this name somewhere. Isn’t he a well-known director? Why are we investigating him?”
After hearing this, Zhan Qipei’s face turned an even deeper shade of gloom, as if he were about to drip with anger.
Puzzlement was written all over Tang Yan’s face as he wondered what he had said wrong.
But all he knew about this man was just that, and it wasn’t incorrect.
So why did his boss look so displeased?
While Tang Yan was still trying unsuccessfully to understand, out of the corner of his eye he suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhan Qipei’s phone screen.
On the screen was a woman with a prominent mosaic blur on her face, standing next to a man.
Although he couldn’t recognize the woman behind such a heavy mosaic, he knew without a doubt that if the boss was so concerned, it must be Miss Qiao.
“So boss, why do we need to investigate Gu Yunchen? Is it because he knows Miss Qiao?”
Zhan Qipei pursed his thin lips.
“No.”
Tang Yan grew even more curious and continued to press for answers.
“Then what? Could it be… that Gu Yunchen has some unknown collaboration with our company? But our company hasn’t signed such a contract!”
In the end, the answer he received nearly made him blackout.
Zhan Qipei’s dark pupils deepened, he took a screenshot of this moment in the video and enlarged it.
“Because they were standing very close, and Qiao Jing never told me she knew this Gu Yunchen.”
His mood had already soured when he saw netizens casually speculating about the relationship between Qiao Jing and Gu Yunchen.
It was clear from the video that Qiao Jing and Gu Yunchen knew each other, and the netizens, with their wild imaginations, went straight to guessing they were a couple.
So why didn’t Qiao Jing tell him about Gu Yunchen?
It took Tang Yan squinting to see the closeness his boss was talking about.
That was Miss Qiao’s sleeve accidentally touching the hem of Gu Yunchen’s upper garment.
His professional smile stiffened for a moment.
“Boss, Miss Qiao surely knows a lot of people, but if you ask her when you go back, I believe she’ll tell you. Do you still need me to investigate this?”
Now he had an additional work task in mind.
That was to keep his distance from Miss Qiao.
The man on the screen, Gu Yunchen, had just brushed clothes with Miss Qiao, and the boss’s expression had turned so dark.
What if he accidentally bumped into Miss Qiao one day? Would he then risk losing his job?
Zhan Qipei knitted his brows and pondered for a while, then felt there was some sense in what Tang Yan had said, and turned off his phone.
“No need to investigate further.”
He should not privately investigate the identity of people around Qiao Jing; such actions indicated a lack of trust in her.
Their relationship was no longer like it used to be.
Between the two of them, a single glance was enough to convey what a thousand words could not.
Only then did Tang Yan breathe a sigh of relief and went aside to deal with his work.
When Qiao Jing returned home, she found the living room lights were off.
Standing at the entrance changing her shoes, she glanced curiously at the clock on the wall. By the moonlight, she could barely make out that it was eight o’clock in the evening.
She had been delayed at the institute in the afternoon and had messaged Zhan Qipei, who said he was at home preparing dinner.
So in theory, Zhan Qipei should be at home at this time. Why was the living room light off?
Just as Qiao Jing was about to turn on the living room light, she heard a rustling noise.
She immediately became alert, discerning a dark figure advancing towards her from the shadows.
“Zhan Qipei?”
Could it be that this damn man was deliberately not turning on the light to scare her?
But how could she possibly be frightened by this?
Instead of answering Qiao Jing, the dark figure quickened its pace.
Qiao Jing furrowed her brows, ready to react, preparing to subdue her assailant with a punch the moment it pounced on her.
In the blink of an eye, the dark figure flashed behind her.
