Contract Marriage: Love Has Finally Arrived

Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Nothing But a Pretty Face

In the hospital room, everyone’s gaze converged on Gu Qiangwei, who had just stepped in.

“Miss Mu, please calm down first.”

Not until a police officer spoke did Mu Jiaqi cast a contemptuous glance at Gu Qiangwei and then turned her gaze away.

Gu Qiangwei paused at the doorway of the ward, with her black pupils scanning the entire room, noting several were crew members from the set, along with three police officers.

“Are you Miss Gu Qiangwei?”

Seeing her, a police officer approached.

...

Gu Qiangwei shifted her gaze to the officer and lightly acknowledged with a sound, “Mhm, I am.”

“This is the situation, regarding Miss Mu Jiaqi’s drowning incident, there are a few questions we need you to answer truthfully.”

Gu Qiangwei didn’t make a sound, instead, calmly glanced over at Mu Jiaqi on the hospital bed.

She didn’t know her, only aware that she was a popular actress. From a day’s interaction, she felt she was difficult to get along with.

Perhaps some famous actresses all had a temper, so she didn’t take it to heart, attributing it to her popularity and naturally big airs.

But now upon reflection, everything seemed not as she had thought.

She didn’t know Mu Jiaqi, and even after a day of interaction, her conversations with her didn’t exceed ten sentences, all of which were work-related. At the time of her falling into the water, she had clearly gone to the dressing room to fetch clothes for her, yet now she was being falsely accused of pushing her into the water? This was simply ludicrous!

Turning her gaze back to the police officer, Gu Qiangwei’s expression remained placid, “Go ahead and ask.”

“Miss Mu accuses you of pushing her into the swimming pool.”

“I didn’t.” Gu Qiangwei replied to the officer’s question with confidence, her demeanor composed, “First, I don’t know Mu Jiaqi and had no reason to push her. Second, I wasn’t near the swimming pool when she fell. Third, I had no motive.”

In a few sentences, she left the police officer at a loss for words.

Her composure and calmness certainly did not seem to come from a person with a calculating mind.

“How can you not have one!?” In the silence, Mu Jiaqi’s voice rang out from the hospital bed, her sharp eyes staring at Gu Qiangwei with a cold laugh, “I heard that after I was sent to the hospital, you took over my role. Isn’t that motive enough for you?”

At these words, Gu Qiangwei’s clear black pupils suddenly tightened.

Why would this Mu Jiaqi frame her?

“I’m just a stylist’s assistant, even if I pushed you into the water, without the director’s order, who could replace you in the role?”

Unable to restrain herself, Mu Jiaqi curled her lips in a cold laugh and snorted, “The director? It’s easy to make him speak up, isn’t it?”

Saying so, Mu Jiaqi looked Gu Qiangwei up and down with her beautiful eyes, “I heard the director personally picked you to replace me. Do you dare to claim you haven’t slept with him?”

As she spoke, the other few crew members’ eyes flickered, turning their gaze towards Gu Qiangwei.

But in the entertainment industry, directors getting involved with actresses was nothing new.

If you want to climb up in this circle, it’s common to sell your body.

Hearing her deeply offensive words, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help but tighten her hand by her side, clenching it into a fist.

Yet, her facial expression remained unchanged, fixing her eyes on Mu Jiaqi on the bed, “To possess such a beautiful face yet have such a foul mouth, could it be that you’ve been involved with too many directors from the entertainment industry?”

At these words, Mu Jiaqi’s face changed dramatically, turning extremely unsightly!

“What did you say!?”

Gu Qiangwei remained as calm as still water, completely unmoved by Mu Jiaqi’s rage.
