Xu Jianian chuckled, âIâm not quite suited for entering the circles of the elite.â
âNo problem, Iâll take you in. No one will stop us,â Lin Wansu said with delight. âWhatâs more, my cousin will be there. Heâs known as the national medical sage. Iâll find a way to introduce you to him.â
Xu Jianian, having heard of Lin Qingchenâs fame, smiled in agreement, âSure.â
âThen itâs settled,â Lin Wansu declared. âJust disguise yourself a bit.â Naturally, entertainment reporters were not allowed at such high-level elite weddings.
She hadnât seen Xu Jianian for half a month, and this was a perfect opportunity to catch up.
On the other side.
Sang Yanqing watched in disbelief as Si Fuqing chose a fried chicken restaurant.
When she managed artists, she strictly controlled their diet to boiled chicken breasts and vegetables only.
After all, an actorâs physique was crucial to their career.
However, since following Si Fuqing, she had not seen her consume any low-calorie food.
âOh,â Si Fuqing replied nonchalantly, âI run ten kilometers every day and do weight training for an hour. Can they do that?â
Sang Yanqing was speechless.
Yuejian sighed.
Her Little Junior Sister didnât mention that she could finish the ten kilometers in less than twenty minutes.
Not to mention, an evolved beingâs metabolism was dozens of times that of a normal person, capable of metabolizing even small amounts of poison out of their system.
Sang Yanqing stepped out to take a call.
She returned a few minutes later.
âIâm really fed up with that chief editor,â Sang Yanqing slammed the table, âHe just called again, all high and mighty, saying that Lin Wansu disagrees with giving you the inside cover again, and told us to look elsewhere.â
âDo they think theyâve become a top magazine just because they sold a hundred thousand copies last month? What arrogance.â
Si Fuqing, unconcerned, joyfully continued eating her cheese and milk-flavored fried chicken.
After Sang Yanqing finished ranting, she said seriously, âQingqing, tell me honestly, you havenât really become someoneâs father, have you?â
Si Fuqing blinked, âWould I do something like that?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âDonât play innocent,â Sang Yanqing tapped her shoulder, âWhether youâve become her father or not isnât important now. Youâve just become her acting coach, and sheâll definitely remember you.â
Si Fuqing, with a lazy demeanor, replied, âLet her remember. If she comes again, Iâll just become her father.â
âRight, âmeet force with force, and repel water with earth,ââ Sang Yanqing sneered, âIâve already secured another magazine cover for you before dinner.
Get ready, weâre heading to the site the day after tomorrow.â
Si Fuqing, who was planning to relax for a couple of days, was speechless.
Yuejian leisurely opened a bottle of beer and whispered, audible only to them,
âLittle Nine, youâre really popular. No matter where you go, thereâs always someone wanting you to work.â
âItâs me, your Second Senior Sister, who treats you the best. Weâre both dragged into working. â
âNonsense,â Si Fuqing opened a can of coke, âThe best is our Big Senior
Brother. He not only doesnât drag me into work but also cooks for me.â Yuejian murmured, âI wonder where the Big Senior Brother is now. I miss him too.â
âWeâll meet him eventually,â Si Fuqing stroked her chin, âHe might have gone to the far north, perhaps skiing with polar bears right now.â
Yuejianâs expression was complicated, âThat sounds like something only you would do.â
Si Fuqing handed her a piece of spicy fried chicken, âThird Senior Sister, eat your chicken, and letâs not talk while eating.â
Yuejian was speechless.
In summary, among the nine disciples, no one could outtalk their Little Junior Sister.
Elsewhere, in Lin City, at the Zuo familyâs home.
Zuo Tianfeng was on a phone call.
Whatever was said on the other end made him visibly joyful.
âYouâre saying the matter with the deserted mountain has been settled?â Zuo Tianfeng was overjoyed, âJust need to report it, and the person in charge could be jailed for at least twenty years? Great, youâve been a huge help this time. Iâll definitely thank you properly later.â
After the call ended, Mrs. Zuo eagerly asked, âHow did it go?â
âItâs a sure win. We can definitely send Si Fuqing to jail,â Zuo Tianfeng sneered, âShe thought I was giving her a deserted mountain as a gift of money and signed the contract so freely. What a fool. â
âNow that thereâs a problem, sheâs the primary responsible person. Iâd like to see how she gets out of this one.â
From the moment Si Fuqing refused to let go of Zuo Qingya, the Zuo family was determined to be at odds with Si Fuqing.
He was set on making Si Fuqing experience the bitterness of prison.
Zuo Tianfeng, trying to contain his excitement, said, âWhat about Xuanyu? Go and tell her the good news. The success with the deserted mountain wouldnât have been possible without her continuous effort.â
âXuanyu has locked herself in her room and hasnât come out,â Mrs. Zuo said worriedly, âSheâs been in a poor state these past few days.â
âThen let her rest for now. Iâll take care of Si Fuqing,â Zuo Tianfeng decided, âIâll fly to Sijiu City later. I want to see Si Fuqing get arrested.â He was determined to avenge Zuo Qingya and Zuo Zonghe!
The next morning.
Lu Ningsheng, knowing Si Fuqing was in Sijiu City, came early to find her, bringing an invitation to her wedding, âQingqing, Shen Xi and I are getting married. The wedding is this mid-month, and you must come. Iâve also invited
Mr. Jiang.â
Her comeback in her career owed much to Si Fuqingâs help.
âSo soon?â Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, âOkay, Iâll definitely attend.â
âBy the way, have you considered pursuing a music career?â Lu Ningsheng inquired, âYouâre great at composing and lyric writing. Acting seems a bit of a waste.â
âCough coughâ¦â Si Fuqing paused, âTeacher Lu, I donât want to work another job.â
âHow can this be considered another job? Itâs showcasing your talent,â Lu
Ningsheng argued, âWith your composition skills, and if you sing yourself, youâd directly win the Hera Music Award.â
The Hera Music Award was one of the most influential music awards internationally, akin to the Glenn Awards in the film industry.
âLetâs talk about it later,â Si Fuqing propped her chin, âIâll consider it when I canât even afford fried chicken.â
Lu Ningsheng was silent.
Wait, was winning awards just for the prize money?!
Lu Ningsheng was about to persuade further when someone knocked on the hotel door.
âBang bang bang!â
The knocking was loud and urgent.
âWho could it be this early?â Lu Ningsheng got up, âQingqing, do you have plans today? If not, Iâll take you downtown for a tour and buy you a few outfits. You canât always dress like this.â
âI have no plans this morning, but I have a lunch appointment with my boss,â Si Fuqing looked up, âBut he shouldnât be coming this early. Iâll go check.â
She walked over to open the door.
Upon seeing the scene outside, her fox-like eyes narrowed.
âSi Fuqing, youâve caused someoneâs death!â Zuo Tianfengâs face was cold, âOfficers, she knows some martial arts and is quite cunning. Please, make sure to restrain her first..â
