"Oh."

Ji Mingzhen lightly replied. However, not even a second later, she quickly jumped up with an expression of disbelief on her face.

"An Ning?! Is it that An Ning I know? "

The manager nodded his head like a warrior who had cut off his wrist. Sure enough, he heard Ji Mingzhen's hoarse shout.

The items on the table fell to the ground with a loud crash. The Beautician was new to the room, and had never seen anything like this before. She was so frightened that she stood to one side, not daring to speak.

"The program team must have deliberately made life difficult for me, right? To actually invite An Ning?!" Where's grandpa?! "I'm going to look for Grandfather and tell the program team that if my opponent is An Ning, I won't be appearing on their show."

The manager silently stood at the side without saying anything. Ji Ming was so angry that he forgot that she wasn't the same person as before. Old Man Ji wouldn't interfere in this matter, and … She also didn't have the right to not attend this program. If she didn't, then her Star Path would come to an end.

After falling down for a while, Ji Mingzhen gradually calmed down and sat on the sofa, gasping for breath.

"Mingzhen, don't be angry. The opponent is An Ning. You can easily crush her and beat her up in the show."

Hearing the manager's words, Ji Mingzhen's expression eased up a lot. Just now, she had reacted to her anger, but now was not the time for her to pick and choose. She had to participate in this variety show, and now that the manager gave her a way out, she could easily pretend to agree.

"Go participate in the program. Tomorrow is the live broadcast, and there's no time for you to go back on your words, right?"

"Alright, then that's it."

Hearing Ji Mingzhen's words, the manager happily agreed and left. Before leaving, he didn't forget to get the manicurist to continue making Ji Mingzhen's nails.

Today was the day that the program was going to be recorded. Gu Ruoyun had already called An Ning early in the morning, and had even instructed her on what to do in the program to show off her most beautiful place.

Unlike Gu Ruoyun, Xu Qing had called specifically to cheer An Ning and Tian Tian on. She had told the two of them that they would definitely crush Ji Mingzhen, and Xu Wang had also asked about the recording schedule, so she was prepared to pick up An Ning.

Taking the private car of the program team, An Ning and Tian Tian arrived at the television station. The moment they got out of the car, they were dragged to the dressing room to put on their clothes.

"Miss An Ning, please wait here for a moment. I'll be back soon."

After the manager assigned by the program team to An Ning gave her warm words of advice, she hurriedly left for the dressing room just now. It seemed something had landed there.

An Ning led the way and stood there quietly. She was surrounded by a busy crowd, and the program was about to start. They were still making their final adjustments.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out across the room. An Ning looked over to see Ji Mingzhen standing there with a face full of disdain. An Ning didn't react, and instead, she gave Ji Mingzhen a grimace every day in discontent, causing her eyebrows to almost furrow in anger.

"Alright, count down!"

The director at the center of the stage suddenly shouted. All the staff quieted down and quickly returned to their positions. The previously chaotic stage instantly became orderly.

"Three!" Two! One! "Begin!"

Following the director's command, the cameras and lights instantly lit up. The well-dressed host went up onto the stage and began his introduction. After that, he invited An Ning and Ji Mingzhen, the two main characters of the day.

It was the first time that An Ning was participating in a variety show. She was at a loss of what to do. Thankfully, her temporary manager had finally returned at this moment. He took the opportunity to push her up.

After introducing himself, a simple and familiar process started. After that, the game officially began, a total of three games, the first of which was an answering game, An Ning and Tian Tian in a group, Ji Mingzhen also had a program team invite to a small children's star, the summer group, stood opposite each other on a long pillar, and below them was a pool that was filled with sponge balls. Then, the two groups would compete for the answer, and when they were wrong or the other side was right, the pillar would retreat, until the spot where the other side was no longer standing and the other side was victorious.

"Competition... "Begin!"

An Ning and Ji Mingzhen nervously stared at the display screen, their hands tightly gripping the small answering device. Their hearts were filled with the desire to defeat each other.

Following the host's command, the originally dark display quickly lit up. Without even clearly seeing the question, the two of them quickly pressed the answering device. Unfortunately, An Ning was slower by a step and the lights on Ji Mingzhen's side lit up.

"What's the name of the wife of the Sailor in the cartoon The Great Sailor? A Oliver, B Alden, C Amy, D Alford. Contestant Ji Mingzhen, please answer! "

The host's voice was pleasant to the ear, but Ji Mingzhen couldn't help but sulk. What kind of topic was this? Animation? Ji Mingzhen's gaze shifted to the summer in front of him. She had probably seen this bastard's "The Great Sailor" before.

Receiving Ji Mingzhen's pleading gaze, Xia Xia also had a bitter expression. She had grown up in the crew since childhood, so she didn't have the time to watch cartoons.

"Countdown of 10 seconds, 10, 9, 8 …"

Hearing the host's countdown, Ji Mingzhen became more and more anxious. Her gaze towards Xia Chen also became stern.

"I choose C, I choose C!"

The only helper he could not rely on was Ji Ming. Helpless, he could only randomly make one up. Amy, it sounded more like the name of a girl.

The light surrounding it quickly turned into a red failure.

"I'm sorry, the answer is wrong. The correct answer is A Oliver!"

Following the host's voice, the pillar beneath his feet slowly began to move backwards, quickly shortening by a large amount.

"Now, next is the second question. Will the contestants please prepare your answers!"

Being unlucky on the first question, Ji Mingzhen suppressed the anger in her heart and braced herself for the answer. But this time, she didn't have that much luck. An Ning had gotten her hands on it.

"Aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. It contains a weak base. What is commonly known as water by drinking water that neutralizes the acid-base balance in a person's body? A soda water, B salt water, C carbonate water, D bubble water, An-Ning contestant, please answer! "

Hearing this long list of professional terms, Ji Mingzhen's face revealed a complacent expression. She did not believe that An Ning was able to answer this question. Even if she was confused, she might not necessarily be right about the four choices.

"I choose A."

To Ji Ming's surprise, An Ning didn't move at all. Instead, she gave Tian Tian the right to answer this question. Ji Ming couldn't help but roll his eyes. Did An Ning give up on herself?
