Chapter 537: The Male Lead Is Missing!(2)
The assistant watched as he walked to a corner alone. He didn’t know whose call Lei Qi was so concerned about.
This scene did not attract much attention.
Si Huang had already found information about Ace’s latest photo on the tablet.
It turned out that Ace’s photo shoot was for an art festival competition.
This match was not a big deal, but the main point was that the organizer of the match was Queen Eliza of Country Y. This made people take it seriously. And the photographer, Louis, had said that this portrait was very important to him. Through the introduction of the content of this art festival competition, Si Huang understood why he said that.
This was because the competition of this art festival wasn’t about the artist, but the photographer. According to Si Huang’s understanding, the photographer who shot Arthur Stoke’s portrait happened to be Louis ‘archenemy!
Currently, the photos of the various photo albums had been uploaded, but the Internet still viewed the photos as appreciation, so that every netizen who watched could participate in the voting.
As the organizer of this art competition was too influential, and there were celebrities like Ace Mephisdale, Arthur Stoke, and Louis, it was impossible for it not to attract the attention of the general public.
Be it Country M, Country Y, Country F, or Country D, they were all very interested in this. In contrast, more and more people saw Si Huang’s appearance in Ace’s portrait. It really made Si Huang’s debut on the western stage!
Just from the official voting comments section, many people asked about Si Huang’s situation. It could be seen that her performance was very successful, leaving a deep impression on this westerner.
How could it not be profound?
Yu Xi was also looking at the content of the portrait.
Previously, when Si Huang was taking the photo shoot, he was also present and was also shocked by Si Huang’s performance.
However, he didn’t expect that Si Huang’s photo would have such an instant kill effect after post-processing.
In the first photo, the silhouette of the figure in the pool was outlined by the clothes. The night scene was post-production. Even as a man, he knew that Si Huang was a man, but he felt that this photo was too beautiful, sexy, and full of spirituality.
The photos of Si Huang and Ace’s interaction were followed by the gorgeous transformation of the demon god. The black twelve wings were spread out and the scarlet cape was fluttering in the wind. No matter how grand the scene was, it was just a foil to Si Huang. The first thing people saw was definitely the dark green demonic pupils of the person in the photo. The smile on his lips was so mysterious and powerful that it seemed to be able to drag people into the deep sea. They felt the suffocating despair of being deprived of their breath, but they could not break free and could not bear to look away.
Fortunately, he had spent quite some time with Si Huang and could see her face every day. His immunity towards her had also increased.
Yu Xi rationally retracted her gaze and operated on her laptop. She put on an alias on a foreign forum and pretended to ‘unintentionally’ reveal some information about Phoenix Si to those foreigners who kept asking about her background.
During this period, he also contacted Ace’s manager, James, and asked him to introduce the Internet Water Army and hype company in M Country. He specially used this momentum to hype up Si Huang overseas.
This was not a bad thing for Ace, and James was happy to help him.
Yu Xi busied himself and in the blink of an eye, an hour had passed. He turned his head to look at Si Huang, thinking that she was also busy with her own matters.
In the end, he accidentally saw a message that Si Huang had just edited.
“Lucky members are selected by the technical department. Are you serious about a joke? I didn’t know you were so good at brewing vinegar.”
Aiyo, damn! It was obvious who it was sent to. Yu Xi secretly mourned for the technical staff of ZZ’s technical department in Wind Emperor Entertainment.
However, Si Huang glanced over and looked away calmly.” James just sent me a message asking if you’re interested in attending one of Ace Corporation’s events.”
Si Huang kept his phone and thought for two seconds before saying,”No need.”
This was because Ace’s photoshoot had just become a hit. If she participated in Ace’s activities, it would backfire. It would make people think that she was eager for success and instant benefits, and it would create suspicions that she was relying on Ace’s thigh to get to the top.
Moreover, she remembered Grandma Yu’s advice. She would be busy with the filming of ” Tooth of Time ” for the next few days. If she did not have to go to other jobs, it was better to reject them.
However, reality was always different from what was expected. Si Huang rested well and went back to work the next day. In the end, after only one day of filming, there was a problem with the production team.
“Lei Qie is missing? Why can’t I find it?”
“Yes…”
“Where’s the phone? Didn’t you call?”
“I can’t get through to the phone either…”
“What happened to you guys? He didn’t even leave a single message?”
Lei Qie’s manager and assistant were speechless when they heard Xiao Jin’s question. It was obvious that they had no clue or impression of him at all.
Lei Qi was the male lead of ” Tooth of Time “. This drama could be said to be tailor-made for him. All the important supporting roles had scenes with him. If he disappeared, the movie would not be able to continue filming.
Si Huang looked at the tense atmosphere in the production team. Although he did not participate, he sat at the side and frowned slightly.
Yu Xi sighed.” I knew that man was unreliable, but I didn’t expect him to be so unreliable. He actually left without saying a word. Wasn’t everything fine before? Why did you…” His words suddenly stopped.
Yu Xi looked at Si Huang and had some doubts in his heart. Could it be another trick to deliberately make things difficult for Si Huang?
Si Huang guessed what he was thinking.” He’s not that childish.”
Yu Xi could still hear a trace of dissatisfaction in her indifferent tone.
“Before Lei Qie disappeared, did he do anything unusual? For example, if you meet someone special, you won’t allow anyone to follow you when you go out alone?” Xiao Jin asked again.
The assistant and manager were both thinking about it. Then, they heard the assistant say,”There was a call the day before yesterday. Lei Qi’s reaction was a little strange…”
The assistant explained the situation. Si Huang noticed that Xiao Jin’s expression was not quite right, as if he had sensed something.
It seemed that this matter wasn’t as simple as Lei Qie leaving without permission.
Si Huang’s mind spun, but he still had no intention of participating.
The morning passed quickly. Because of the building, the filming progress of the crew stopped.
When everyone was eating lunch together, the atmosphere was still very gloomy. As Si Huang was eating, he suddenly heard Yu Xi ask in surprise: ” Si Huang, where is your uncle?” Doesn’t it usually come out on time for meals?”
Si Huang was stunned.
He touched his pocket.
It was empty.
