Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 986 - 975: Film Emperor

Ye Qiu, afraid of startling Li Ge, only glanced at her for a moment before shifting his gaze, but that one look almost stopped Li Ge’s heart from beating.

Yet when she felt he was no longer looking at her, she inexplicably felt a sense of loss.

With a bitter smile in her heart, Li Ge wondered what she was still hoping for. She was just an ordinary manager with no special looks, not someone who could catch the eye of Ye Qiu, the superstar currently in the limelight.

Someone like Xu Dai, who has both talent and allure, would be a better match for him. She looked up to see Xu Dai, smiling as beautifully as a flower, walking towards Ye Qiu, and self-mockingly lowered her head.

"Ye Qiu, what are you doing here? The director wants us to have a quick meeting," Xu Dai said with a cheerful smile.

"Nothing much, just came to borrow a bottle of mineral water from them," Ye Qiu replied with a smile, then said to Wen Chuan and Li Ge, "Let’s go over together."

Xu Dai looked at Wen Chuan and Li Ge with curiosity, unable to see anything unusual, but she wondered to herself—wasn’t there a whole case of mineral water where they were just now? Why come all the way here to borrow one? Was there something hidden?

Seeing Ye Qiu acting so normally, Li Ge felt a mix of melancholy and relief, as she had once suspected that, like her, Ye Qiu had been reborn.

But since he never came to find her, she gradually dismissed this suspicion. However, Ye Qiu’s career in this life had been too smooth, which made her less confident. But from his recent behavior, it seemed she had indeed overthought things.

That wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. If Ye Qiu were truly reborn, she wouldn’t know how to face him. Just like this was fine—two people who don’t know each other, with no need for future intersections.

But Ye Qiu’s thoughts were different at this moment. If one looked closely, they would see his eyelids twitching unnaturally, and his palms were sweating.

Having cultivated the Soul Power Technique, his perception of people’s Divine Souls was very sharp. Almost instantly when Li Ge saw him, he noticed something was off about her, and he immediately sensed something unusual.

If her uneasiness was simply because of his current fame, seeing him as an idol, she shouldn’t be showing such hesitation, conflict, and restraint. Normally, a fan’s reaction to seeing a superstar should be like that of the artists under her management.

And when Xu Dai appeared at his side, Xu Dai’s self-mockery and relief instantly gave Ye Qiu a bold guess, which made his heart skip a beat.

But if Li Ge truly was reborn, what should he do? Would she forgive him?

It seemed he needed to change his strategies accordingly, at least not let her discover that he also had memories from a past life, or else she would immediately start avoiding him.

Ye Qiu concealed his emotions, not showing any particular thoughts towards Li Ge, but he was quite considerate of Wen Chuan, even saving a seat for him next to himself during the director’s meeting.

Wen Chuan’s slightly cool face showed a look of joy: "Thank you, Senior Ye." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Ye Qiu responded with a gentle smile, "No need to thank me. I’m not much older than you, just entered the industry two years earlier. Take a seat, let’s help each other out from now on."

"I think your smile is a bit disillusioning, you had better not smile like that in front of little fans, it’s easy to lose followers," Xu Dai suggested kindly, looking at Wen Chuan with appreciation.

Wen Chuan didn’t expect the famous Xu Dai to be so considerate of him and immediately looked at her gratefully: "Thank you for the advice, Senior Xu Dai. But Sister Gezi said that once a persona is established, it’s hard to change it, so it’s better to just be myself."

Hearing this, Xu Dai glanced in surprise at Li Ge standing behind Wen Chuan. She hadn’t expected such a young manager to have such insight, not being dazzled by the immediate glamour.

With this newcomer’s appearance and aura advantage, she believed that as long as he got a decent idol drama and established a prince or noble image, he would soon become popular, attracting a flock of female fans.

But such fans are both stable and highly unreliable; primarily because they are young, only young girls believe in such fairytale romances, and they have little rationality, only believing what they want to believe.

If their idol exhibits behavior that doesn’t align with their expectations, their reactions can be quite extreme, possibly switching from devoted fan to critic in an instant.

Moreover, young fans are fickle; today they’re into one Prince Charming, and tomorrow another, and they quickly grow up, soon realizing just how naive their previous behavior was.

That’s why idol careers might last one or two years, maybe even four or five, but not for a lifetime. Like the young star who was incredibly popular a few years ago, he even broke several records then. But what about now? He’s faded into obscurity.

And being such an idol offers little freedom, it’s better not to create such personas from the start. Although it’s not as easy to gain fame, life is easier, and with true talent, people will eventually notice your worth.

For these reasons, Xu Dai held Li Ge in high regard, recognizing her far-sighted thinking at such a young age, which was rare. If she had been smarter back then, she wouldn’t have made so many mistakes.

"Your manager is excellent; I have high hopes for you both," Xu Dai assured, nodding to Wen Chuan and Li Ge.

Then she turned with a smile to Ye Qiu, "If you had such a smart manager, I wouldn’t worry about you. Look at the recent online rumors; no one’s controlling the narrative."

Following Xu Dai’s words, Ye Qiu looked at Li Ge, his gaze particularly captivating: "I wish too, but it seems I don’t have that good fortune yet."

Then he jokingly asked, "Since I’m currently a lone wolf, would you, Miss, be willing to take me in?"

Being looked at this way, Li Ge’s heart skipped a beat again, her mind a swirl of chaos.

"Senior Ye, you’re joking. How could I have the qualifications? Even big companies would struggle to have you," Li Ge managed with a forced smile.

"Rejected, it seems," Ye Qiu chuckled lightly, "Looks like I really don’t have that luck."

Hearing his reply, Li Ge’s tense heart relaxed again; just as she thought, it was a joke. How could Ye Qiu take an interest in someone like her?

Unbeknownst to her, seeing her reaction, Ye Qiu lowered his eyes in disappointment, sighing to himself not to rush things, not to push Li Ge farther away; he must proceed slowly.
