["Isn't this too ridiculous? You can eat melons carelessly, but you can't play with memes recklessly! They used to call me Palm Sister, then Bibi Sister, and now they've come up with something so bizarre..."]
Ji Fei was truly worn out by these unscrupulous netizens and complained tearfully to her new manager, Sister Pei.
Sister Pei coldly and mercilessly rejected Ji Fei's complaints.
"It's a great thing, this is spontaneous traffic. Others couldn't even dream of it, and it's positive for you too," Pei Mingxuan said while aiding and abetting by liking that reply.
An exasperated Ji Fei gulped down the remaining half cup of milk tea in one go.
Suddenly, a light chuckle came from beside her.
Ji Fei immediately glared over with wide eyes.
Qin Xian quickly pretended to be seriously looking at documents, as if he hadn't just been amused.
"Hey!"
Qin Xian coughed and said, "Pei Mingxuan probably wants to shape your public image this way. This way, ordinary people won't dare to mess with you in the future, and they won't dare to offer you shady work."
Ji Fei was stunned, "Ah? Is that so?"
Qin Xian nodded and said, "She also wants to use this meme about you to establish an implicit image of never falling from grace for the studio. In the future, artists who join your studio will spontaneously gain an extra measure of trust in people's hearts, making it easier to gain fans' favor and collaborators' peace of mind. So it's all benefit and no harm."
Ji Fei immediately pointed at herself, indicating that she had been harmed, as she didn't want to bear such a strange public image.
Qin Xian thought for a moment and then said, "If you really don't want to, just tell Pei Mingxuan directly and let her handle it."
Ji Fei was stunned, "Is that okay?"
Qin Xian nodded seriously, "No one can force you to do things you don't want to do. If she can't handle it well, I'll handle it."
Being suddenly answered so seriously by Qin Xian made Ji Fei have to seriously consider it.
Actually, if it wasn't happening to her, it would seem quite amusing.
After thinking about it, she decided to let it go. After all, she entered the entertainment industry not only to pass the time and gossip, but also to earn some money. Sister Pei was right, having traffic was a good thing.
However, as time passed, by the afternoon, the online trend gradually became strange. It seemed that if any artist dared to compete with their top-tier idols and survive unscathed, it would prove that they wouldn't fall from grace and were worth following.
Some fans were quite aggressive, directly demanding that their idols go head-to-head to prove themselves and clear up any negative rumors.
But those artists who really had scandals could only fool their fans, who would dare to respond at this time? They all became turtles hiding in their shells.
For a time, many amusing stories burst out.
Ji Fei laughed heartily all afternoon, and in the end, Qin Xian didn't dare to take her to his meeting, as she was too distracting.
"Ah? You don't need me to go? Then I..."
"Help me organize the files on the computer," Qin Xian instructed before leaving.
Ji Fei nodded in agreement and stayed in the office.
Actually, throughout the day, Ji Fei mostly helped by opening some files, looking for contracts, typing on the computer, and replying to messages on Qin Xian's phone for him.
Because files, contracts, phones, and computers were all important things, especially after Secretary Jin's incident, Qin Xian didn't let anyone have the chance to access them.
Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, Ji Fei became the only one allowed to be close to these things.
[If Secretary Jin knew this in prison, he would probably spit blood.]
Ji Fei couldn't help but smile. After finishing organizing, she was about to leave when she suddenly saw an email notification pop up on the screen.
Ji Fei had previously helped Qin Xian handle emails, and seeing it was from an unfamiliar source, she directly opened it.
As soon as she opened it, Ji Fei was stunned.
"Xian, I'm returning to the country in half a month. Can we meet?"
Ji Fei blinked, immediately realizing that this should be the message from Yu Zhi, Qin Xian's first love.
She let go of the mouse and scratched her head, wishing she hadn't been so quick to open it, as it made things awkward.
Ji Fei couldn't help but stare at the email for a while longer.
Strange, shouldn't she be happy?
After all, because of so-called fate, she couldn't actively propose divorce, only Qin Xian could initiate a successful divorce.
So her plan all along was to behave well, wait for the first love to return, wait for them to start entangling, wait for Qin Xian to feel guilty towards her, and then she could get a huge divorce settlement, divorce, and be free and easy.
This was the exit script she had arranged for herself.
She should be happily preparing a countdown, right?
Emmm~ I understand!
The days had been too comfortable, she had taken the way of living in the Qin family as her comfort zone, so thinking about leaving the habits that had already formed still made her feel uncomfortable inside.
But it's okay, thinking about the future with more than 200 million in divorce settlement, plus various investments, and the path already paved in the entertainment industry, Ji Fei's expression instantly became as bright as a flower as she looked at the email.
[Dear, I'm just waiting for you~]
Ji Fei made a heart gesture at the email, then got up and left Qin Xian's office.
Anyway, Qin Xian's meeting would still take a long time, so she might as well go downstairs and sit for a while, she hadn't had enough milk tea earlier.
The place where the assistant bought her milk tea was the leisure bar inside the group company.
Since it wasn't afternoon tea time, there were very few people who could come here to sit and rest.
She had just gone to the front desk to order when the staff recognized her and respectfully told her she could sign the bill later.
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from behind.
"Teacher Ji?"
Ji Fei was stunned. It couldn't be someone from the company who would call her like this, it was usually people from the entertainment industry who would address her this way.
She turned around and saw unexpected people.
Not far away, in an elegant booth sat five glamorous women. They all had an imposing manner, adorned with jewels and pearls, sitting elegantly inside drinking tea. However, their gazes as they looked over were full of haughty appraisal, with a hint of contempt and condescension in their eyes.
The one who called her was the woman in the middle, Madam Zong.
She was the wife of Zong Chun, the old-school actor known for his loving husband image, who was a guest in the third group.
Apart from the first time when Ji Fei was introduced and greeted her, she had never formally communicated with her. After all, she was mainly there to keep an eye on her husband and Yu Rouyin, who had been ostracized by the circle of wealthy wives and was known as the Most Beautiful Noble Consort Yang.
Their two groups had never encountered each other, so naturally there was no other interaction.
Ji Fei thought it was a chance encounter, and since the other party had called her...
A hint of craftiness flashed in Ji Fei's eyes, and she politely went over to greet them.
Madam Zong didn't stand up, just nodded slightly, then introduced her to her old sisters, "This is Ji Fei."
This was introducing her to the others, but the others also just nodded arrogantly, without any intention of introducing themselves.
Ji Fei wasn't angry at being looked down upon. Instead, she tried very hard to hold back her laughter.
Because she knew why these people had this attitude towards her.
They didn't know her identity, and probably always thought she was a little mistress kept by some senior executive of Qin Corporation.
Actually, Ji Fei and Qin Xian weren't exactly in a secret marriage, it's just that general business family enterprises don't like to expose their family privacy situations.
So even though Qin Zhao's fans wouldn't know that he was the third young master of Qin Corporation, his identity would still circulate within the industry.
As for Ji Fei's identity, it was still a mystery in the entertainment circle. They only knew she wasn't Qin Zhao's lover, and that she came from the upper class to play around.
Madam Zong knew Qin Zhao's identity. A newcomer that Qin Zhao would bring must have a significant connection to Qin Corporation, she just didn't expect her to be the CEO's wife. After all, whose CEO's wife would come to be a variety show celebrity?
Ji Fei thought she could leave after greeting them, but unexpectedly, after introducing her, Madam Zong said, "Please sit."
"Ah?" Ji Fei was stunned, "Wouldn't this disturb your gathering?"
"No, strictly speaking, we also came to find you. Since we've met you first, let's just say it directly. We have something to ask for your help," Madam Zong spoke directly and seriously. Her gaze seemed to leave no room for refusal.
Ji Fei became curious, "What is it?"
"Aren't you the judge of the domestic entertainment industry? We hope that in your next PK, you'll help us collectively ostracize Yu Rouyin! We want this mistress to be ruined and disappear from the domestic entertainment industry."
