The Queen’s Rise to the Top

Chapter 4

Nan XiangWan saw Nan ChaoYang clutching his heart and sweating profusely.

A flash of heartache passed through Nan ChaoYang's eyes.

He didn't dislike his sister, he was just angry!

Angry that his sister didn't fight for herself, didn't resist, and had no temper!

Although feeling heartache, Nan ChaoYang still couldn't resist ridiculing her: I'm telling you, you can't lose to her, otherwise I'll look down on you!

By this time, Nan XiangWan had already recovered her composure.

She clasped her hands together, cracking her knuckles.

Nan XiangWan: Don't worry, I'll go up there and punch her head and make it explode!

Nan ChaoYang:

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Nan ChaoYang went to open the door, and it turned out to be a delivery.

It was the military outfit Nan XiangWan had ordered earlier in the day. The shop happened to be in the same residential compound, so they delivered it directly, saving the delivery fee.

Nan XiangWan didn't think too much of it, and threw the clothes into her suitcase.

Anyway, she was leaving tomorrow!

But what else was in the suitcase?

Nan XiangWan frowned as she took out the things her mother had packed for her.

Dresses? Don't want them!

Jewelry? Don't want them!

So the suitcase instantly became half empty.

Nan XiangWan repacked, adding more underwear and socks.

After finishing, she closed the suitcase again.

Outside, her mother was calling her for dinner.

Nan XiangWan immediately ran out and sat down at the table, even licking her lips expectantly.

The food in this world was so delicious!

To see Nan XiangWan off, her mother had prepared a full table of dishes for dinner, and had even bought a whole emperor crab!

She had gone specially to the seafood market to buy it!

Nan XiangWan's eyes lit up as she started eating.

Beside her, Nan Song sighed and said: You even got an emperor crab, if I didn't know better I'd think it was New Year!

Xin Zi glared at him: What do you know! Xiao Wan is going away for two months, what's wrong with having emperor crab? You're not allowed to eat it! And ChaoYang isn't allowed either!

Nan ChaoYang had just raised his chopsticks to grab a crab leg, and now his hand froze in midair, not knowing whether to pick it up or put it down.

What a pity.

After finishing dinner, Nan XiangWan got up satisfied and returned to her room.

Just then, she overheard the conversation coming from the dining room.

I'm saying, you didn't need to buy emperor crab, right? Thousands of yuan each! We can't finish it, it's wasteful!

If there are leftovers, you can eat them!

Nan XiangWan frowned slightly, and looked at the system panel.

The line about wealth showed:

【Assets: 1800RMB (barely enough to eat)】

With the 10x cashback it should have been two thousand, but after she bought the sandbags it had dropped to 1800.

Nan XiangWan shook her head. Barely enough to eat means being destitute, right?

Next, she looked out at the night view through the window.

Their home was on the 18th floor, directly facing a lake called Jinji Lake.

The ridiculous looking wide-legged building next to it was called Oriental Gate, she seemed to recall.

Nan XiangWan sighed. It looked like this family was not well-off, the situation was worrying!

They didn't even have a hillside villa or mansion, let alone a racetrack you could run three laps on. And they lived crowded together with who knows how many other families in this building!

In her previous world, only poor people lived crammed together with so many other families like this!

As the number one female general of the empire, she had her own general's residence!

And the reason she didn't dare tell her parents she had been pushed into the water, was because of this right?

She recalled that Xi BaiWei's family circumstances were quite good, she was always showing off in class.

Nan XiangWan took out her phone and searched.

Can you make money being a celebrity?

The results were satisfactory.

Nan XiangWan decided, she must work hard to lift her family out of poverty!

The next day.

Early in the morning, Nan XiangWan set off by car.

Her father Nan Song drove her, taking three hours for the trip.

From GuSu city to MoDu city was only half an hour, but because MoDu was so big, even taking the elevated highway they still needed over two hours to arrive.

Sitting in the car, Nan XiangWan kept looking things up on her phone.

She had heard cars were also a symbol of wealth in this world, the brand and such.

Let's see, her dad's car was...look it up.

Oh, Volkswagen.

Nan XiangWan looked further and indeed, Volkswagen was a very down-to-earth brand with affordable prices.

Just as she thought!

Nan XiangWan once again confirmed her family's impoverished circumstances, her parents couldn't afford an expensive car.

Upon reaching their destination, dad took her luggage out of the trunk, patting her on the back to encourage her.

After Nan XiangWan got out of the car, she saw a group of pink buildings.

Her expression changed on the spot, she almost threw up.

Why was it pink again!

Just then, a staff member from the entrance came over to verify her information, while peeking at Nan Song's car butt.

Tsk tsk!

Volkswagen Phideon!

2.5 million!

Not afraid of Mercedes Benz or Land Rover, just afraid of Volkswagen with letters!

The Volkswagen Phideon model had been discontinued, but its legend still lived on in the industry. Didn't expect to see one here.

Instantly, the staff's gaze towards Nan XiangWan changed.

Impressive, another invisible tycoon!

Nan XiangWan waved goodbye to her dad, then entered the building.

Commencing two months of closed filming!

Having arrived late, the show was already about to start.

All the trainees were nervously preparing to go on stage.

Nan XiangWan was brought to a makeup room, and the makeup artist's eyes lit up as soon as she saw her, immediately getting to work on her face.

Such a pretty young lady, this skin, wow!

Nan XiangWan: You're so pretentious!

Makeup artist:

Finally after half an hour, her makeup was done.

The makeup artist then immediately started on her hair: Pretty young lady, with such long hair, let's do a nice big wave, okay?

Nan XiangWan looked at herself in the mirror, her hair was very long, down to her waist.

She had felt very uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it being so long before. It didn't feel convenient for boxing with hair this long.

She waved her hand: Tie it up.

The makeup artist's eyes lit up again: Young lady is the cold type? Then I'll tie it in a high ponytail!

After finishing her hair, Nan XiangWan was arranged to go to the dressing room to change into performance clothes.

Staff: Did you bring the clothes to go on stage?

Nan XiangWan: Brought them, in my suitcase.

Next second, her suitcase was wheeled in.

Nan XiangWan opened it and took out the delivery parcel, unwrapping it.

She changed into a set of black military gear!

Looking at herself in the mirror,

So handsome!

"Super Idol Trainees!" was a big production by SouthNorth Entertainment.

All participating trainees were female, aged 20 and under.

Only 7 would be selected out of 100 to debut as the girl group Dey (Heaven's Will)!

The massive internet hype building up to it had been ubiquitous, with many speculating it was because SouthNorth Entertainment didn't have their own girl group, so they created this huge show.

And the real reason was indeed this.

Not only could they attract trainees from all companies, but also bring the popularity to a climax!

The moment the show aired, there would also be synchronized live streaming, authentically and comprehensively presenting everything to the audience.

This eliminated any potential unfair treatment due to editing!

Of course, the production team would also re-edit it into 12 regular episodes after, releasing across the entire internet for those who missed the livestream to watch.

SouthNorth Entertainment's sincerity was evident, so the audience was on board.

See, after just one minute of airing, popularity was already at one million!
