Chapter 131: Backstage
Xia Qingluo watched with interest as people were talking about Xia Wan'er.
How could she not know what Xia Wan'er was thinking?
Although the prices at Galaxy Restaurant are high, it is not a membership-based restaurant. As long as you have money, you can book a private room.
Xia Wan'er had so many luxury goods on her, so she definitely had no shortage of money. How could she not think of booking a private room?
It's obvious that they deliberately wanted people to take pictures of them and post them online.
Xia Qingluo turned around and whispered a few words to the waiter beside him.
After hearing this, the waitress immediately showed a professional smile on her face, "Okay miss, please wait a moment."
Soon, several waiters began to move around the restaurant, politely whispering explanations to other customers.
After hearing this, the customers were a little surprised, but they all expressed their understanding and picked up their belongings and left.
Xia Wan'er was pretending to browse the video on her phone, trying to hide her uneasiness. However, when she looked up, she froze in place.
The Galaxy Restaurant, which was originally almost full of people, was empty in an instant, with only a few waiters left.
Xia Qingluo slowly walked up to Xia Wan'er and sat lazily on the chair opposite.
Xia Wan'er looked around with wide eyes, "Strange, there were so many people here just now, how come they are all gone in an instant?"
Xia Qingluo glanced casually at the empty restaurant, then took the menu and ordered a few dishes from the waiter before looking up at Xia Wan'er with a faint smile on her red lips.
"I've booked the place."
Xia Qingluo's current film salary is very high, which is more than enough to book a restaurant's afternoon tea time.
A hint of surprise flashed in Xia Wan'er's eyes. She knew that Xinghe Restaurant was one of the top high-end restaurants in Guangzhou. A glass of drink cost two or three hundred yuan, so the cost of booking the whole restaurant was naturally not cheap.
What's more, there were a lot of people in the restaurant just now. If we want to book the whole place, it means we have to pay for all the customers present.
Such expenses would cost at least hundreds of thousands.
Is Xia Qingluo so rich now? With a wave of his hand, hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent.
In her impression, Xia Qingluo has always been the girl from an ordinary family, whose parents went abroad to work and she herself lived a simple life.
She even remembered the days when Xia Qingluo had to eat takeout and boxed lunches every day in order to save money.
Xia Wan'er couldn't help but feel jealous.
Sure enough, after Xia Qingluo climbed up to Lu Chengyuan's high branch, he became very successful.
If she had not been so noble back then and had found a steady man to support her, she wouldn't have ended up like this.
But soon, Xia Wan'er's expression froze, and after she came to her senses, she began to feel a little uneasy.
Xia Qingluo suddenly lavishly booked the entire theater. Could it be that he discovered her little trick?
Xia Wan'er laughed dryly and quickly changed the subject, "It's good to book the whole place. There were too many people just now and it was a bit noisy..."
She quickly pulled out a small, exquisite box from her designer handbag, inside of which lay a necklace.
The necklace is inlaid with a blue gem. This gem is like the most mysterious water drop in the deep sea, emitting a faint light. You can tell at a glance that it is a necklace worth more than one hundred thousand.
Xia Wan'er smiled flatteringly, and handed the necklace to Xia Qingluo, "I just bought this downstairs, and it seems to suit you very well."
Xia Qingluo lowered her eyes and took a look, then pushed the necklace back. "I appreciate your kindness, but I told you that you don't have to give me a gift. We are sisters, why are you being so polite?"
Xia Wan'er carefully observed Xia Qingluo's expression and saw that she was smiling and seemed not to notice.
Maybe it's just a coincidence.
After all, she had just been supported by Lu Chengyuan and her quality of life had improved, so she liked to spend money lavishly.
Just like she is now.
"Then this is a good choice for you, Luoluo." Xia Wan'er said politely again.
Xia Qingluo followed the topic and asked casually, "But speaking of which, you seem to be buying luxury goods a lot recently. Have you found a new job?"
Xia Wan'er had already thought of a suitable excuse, "I've been retreating behind the scenes lately, writing songs to make money."
Xia Qingluo picked up a small piece of apple with a fork, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.
This is different from the previous life.
In her previous life, Xia Wan'er relied on the people behind her to become famous and win the Best Actress award. Apart from the entertainment industry, she did not pursue any other career options.
However, perhaps after her death, Xia Wan'er began to develop in another direction.
Xia Qingluo blinked, "What kind of music company is this? So powerful?"
Xia Wan'er smoothed her hair and hesitantly said, "I haven't signed a contract with any company. I just compose some music and sing some songs."
Xia Qingluo nodded, "Then you have good talent. You can have a steady flow of money even if you don't sign a contract with a company."
Xia Wan'er felt a little guilty, and her smile was stiff. "It was just a coincidence. I was lucky."
She did release a few songs anonymously, but if it weren't for Luosha buying her popularity, no one would have been interested.
This is how Xia Wan'er views the entertainment industry: even if you have the ability, it is useless because you will never be able to compare to those who are made famous by capital.
Fortunately, she has someone supporting her now, and she doesn’t have to do those dirty things, just to please Xia Qingluo.
Xia Qingluo's eyes were still lazy, as if he had no doubt at all.
If he continued asking, Xia Wan'er would probably realize that something was wrong, so Xia Qingluo simply ended the topic.
The waiters brought the afternoon tea sets one after another, and the topic revolved around food.
Xia Qingluo thought that was no wonder, and continued to ask, but Xia Wan'er was unwilling to say anything.
After chatting for a while, Xia Qingluo got up and went to the bathroom.
Standing in the bathroom, Xia Qingluo took out his cell phone and immediately sent a message to Han Xun.
[Xia Qingluo: Check if Xia Wan'er has ever released any songs on the Internet.]
【Han Xun: Okay, sir, I’ll check it right away.】
Han Xun was extremely efficient and sent a message two minutes later.
[Han Xun: I compared it with Xia Wan'er's voice and found a few songs.]
Xia Qingluo clicked on the link, which was the profile of a singer named "Medusa".
There is no avatar, and there are thirteen songs. At first glance, I thought they were covers by an internet anchor.
The popularity is neither high nor low, and it did not make it to the hot list, but it does have a place on other lists.
If every song had this kind of popularity, it would indeed be possible to make some money based on quantity.
But it is unlikely that someone like Xia Wan'er could casually take out a necklace worth hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Xia Qingluo took out headphones from his pocket, put them on, and randomly clicked on a song.
Ten seconds later, Xia Wan'er began to sing. Xia Qingluo's expression changed instantly, from frowning slightly to being incredulous, and finally he couldn't help laughing.
What kind of nonsense is this?
