Extra Chapter 8: Brother’s Story

On the first day, other than being affected by her age and education, Qi Yan was still at ease. After the filming ended that night, the senior she knew specially looked for her and said that her performance today was very outstanding.

“It’s alright,” Qi Yan said humbly.

However, it was indeed better than she had imagined. She did not encounter any troublesome situations or make any mistakes. “However, I feel that there’s still a gap between me and them.”

“Of course. You’re so experienced,” the senior praised.

“No, no, no.” The senior misunderstood what she meant. “I mean, they were all from famous schools. In comparison, my education level is not worth mentioning.”

Today, the four leaders preferred interns from other academies. After all, she had a relatively stable job and would not stay in their company in the future.

“How could that be?” The senior comforted her. “Everyone has their own edge. In my opinion, your experience is relatively more precious. Besides, although you’re not from a famous overseas school, your school is not bad. It’s not as bad as you think.”

“If you really care about this problem, work hard until the end and try your best to obtain the qualifications to study overseas with the master. I think highly of you!”

“Okay!”

After work, Qi Yan said goodbye to the other interns, and the others prepared to take a taxi and leave.

Qi Yan had lived in Huai City for a while and knew that it was more convenient to take the subway at this time.

Carrying her bag, she walked along the road in the direction of the subway station. It was not far from the subway station, about three to four minutes away.

She did not do much hard work today, so she decided to take a walk.

After walking for a while, the headlights behind her flashed. Qi Yan subconsciously leaned to the side. The next second, she realized that she wasn’t walking on the road and couldn’t block the way.

Before she could turn around to find out what was going on, a horn sounded behind her. It was short and dull, not enough to scare her.

She turned around in surprise and immediately saw Nan Zhe’s Mercedes with a license plate containing the same numbers.

Compared to his high-profile sports car in the past, the car in front of her was relatively low-key. Of course, it would be more low-key without this expensive license plate.

After getting into the car, Qi Yan buckled her seatbelt with one hand and looked at him. “Where did you come from? Jiang City?”

“I have been in Jiang City since the afternoon.” There were many people around. Nan Zhe drove the car out first. After a while, he continued, “I happened to come here to meet an elder in the afternoon, so I came to pick you up from work.”

“Why didn’t you give me any news?

“I just arrived.” Nan Zhe did not tell the truth.

His car was not far from the company where she was recording the show. When he saw her coming out, he followed her. After confirming that she was a little far from the company, he reminded her to get into the car. “How are you today? How do you feel?”

“Overall, it’s not bad. I helped solve a few small problems today.” At the mention of this, a hint of confidence appeared in Qi Yan’s eyes and she smiled smugly. “I was a little worried in the morning, but I wasn’t so anxious since the afternoon.”

“After tonight, I had a simple chat with a senior as well.”

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Nan Zhe was relieved. “What do you want to eat tonight?”

“Anything is fine!” Qi Yan rolled up her sleeves and returned to her usual energetic self. “I’m so hungry now that I think I can eat five bowls of rice.” “You’re so hungry.” Nan Zhe sneered. “Didn’t you eat enough for lunch?”

“A little. They have a small canteen there. The food is average. It’s not to my liking and tasted bland. It’s very strange. I wanted to order takeout, but everyone was in the canteen on the first day, so I didn’t do anything special.” “Don’t let yourself suffer tomorrow. I’ll order it for you and send it over.”

“No need. I don’t think they like to eat in the canteen either. When the time comes, everyone will order together.”

“You’re so careful. Are you afraid that others will know that you have a boyfriend?” Nan Zhe pretended to be jealous and asked deliberately.

Qi Yan tied her long hair back into a neat ponytail. “They know I have a boyfriend.”

Nan Zhe raised his eyebrows in surprise.

“You took the initiative to say it?”

“When someone asked during lunch break, I told them. What’s there to hide?” It was just a normal relationship. There was no need to hide it.

However, Nan Zhe was considered half a public figure and had some attention in the entertainment industry. She did not let him appear on screen mainly because she was worried about public opinion. Similarly, Nan Zhe chose not to show his face because of this.

On this point, the two of them reached a consensus.

Although they knew what kind of person the other party was, what the netizens saw was only the tip of the iceberg after all. It was too one-sided.

In addition, his background was not simple. No one would think that he would truly fall in love with anyone. Instead, he was probably always messing around.

Nan Zhe didn’t care much about this kind of public opinion, but he felt that Qi Yan was a clean girl. There was no need for her to get into unnecessary trouble because of him.

In addition, her parents would also see it. When the time came, it would leave a bad impression on the elders. It would be difficult to explain.

Due to her participation in the show, the two of them had temporarily put aside their previous plan to go to Tibet. Nan Zhe was not very sad. The two of them were busy at this stage and did not deliberately not go on holiday. It was understandable.

When the second half of the show was filmed, it was officially broadcasted. At first, the number of views was not satisfactory. Later on, a large number of viewers suddenly surged in, and the show was filled with topics.

This turning point was that Nan Zhe and Qi Yan’s relationship had been filmed and exposed.

As soon as Nan Zhe’s name appeared, Qi Huan, who had been in scandals with him for many years, also became a trending topic. Some people sighed that this couple was really over, while others began to dig deeper for information about

Nan Zhe’s new girlfriend.

Hence, Qi Yan’s name was also trending, along with the show.

For a moment, Qi Yan stood in the center of the storm of public opinion. There were various opinions online.

Everyone quickly realized that she had also been on the trending searches because of Qi Huan last time. It turned out that everything could be traced.

At first, Qi Yan did not care much about such comments.

Nan Zhe and Qi Huan had never been together before. Even if no one believed her, she would not be sad because of this.

Nan Zhe also came to comfort her and told her that he would control public opinion.

Immediately after, Nan Zhe personally spoke about it.

“We’ve known each other for 12 years. We’re classmates, first loves, and lovers.”

At the end, there was even a photo of them together. It was taken by the entire class one year in junior high school. The two of them were standing in front of each other in their school uniforms, and Nan Zhe had specially circled them.

After knowing about the relationship between the two of them, the trend on the internet changed. There were even people who liked seeing them together.

She thought that this matter would end just like that, but two days later, someone suddenly revealed that Qi Yan’s father had been exposed because of corruption and bribery..
