Chapter 163: Little Green Tea

Chapter 163

When Qin Wei heard the name "Shen Qingqing", her heart skipped a beat. The entertainment industry really is a small circle, always running into each other.

Youyou noticed something was off. She had seen the variety show they filmed together where they were roommates, and it seemed like they got along fine...

"Sis, it's no big deal if you don't want to eat hot pot together. Anyway you two won't be rooming together..."

Everything else was fine. With Chen Xinya there at the time, she didn't dislike Shen Qingqing too much. After all, the endorsement Shen took from her was no longer in Qin Wei's hands, so there was no real unpleasantness between them.

But Shen Qingqing talked too much, always going on about her Ke Ge, which successfully misled Qin Wei, and thinking about it made her feel awful.

More importantly...

"Youyou..."

Qin Wei lowered her voice calling her name.

"What's up, sis?"

Youyou unconsciously lowered her voice too.

"I think I owed her money..."

Youyou: "..."

Perhaps people are multifaceted. Qin Wei felt Shen Qingqing was gossipy and calculating.

But as a classmate, Youyou felt Shen Qingqing was lively and genuine, without any ulterior motives.

Well, it's not that strange. Maybe she saves her schemes for outsiders and not her classmates.

...

For the upcoming fourth performance, 30 people would be cut down to 20. The competition format had changed dramatically. The 30 contestants had to perform together in 4 public performances involving singing and dancing, and everyone had to participate, giving opportunities for everyone to shine, though these wouldn't count towards scoring.

Additionally, the 30 were divided into 2 big groups, each putting on a singing and dancing show.

Then there were subgroups of 5 that each put on a show.

And each person had two minutes to showcase their special skills, just like in the preliminaries, performing what they were best at.

According to the showrunners, over halfway through, it was time to look back to their original dreams and see how much the artists had transformed.

Because there were so many demanding tasks, they were given relatively ample time. Aside from the choreography which had a set schedule, they could manage the other times themselves.

The show crew also provided some "thoughtful" services, like the training rooms being open 24 hours, and the cafeteria allowing requests for any food they wanted to eat, which the crew would go out and buy for them.

But at first no one was too nervous about it. After all, they had just finished the challenging performances, so preparations had just begun.

There were 6 villas in the dorms. With so many people eliminated, to allow better rest, the 5 remaining people were assigned to each villa.

Since not everyone had arrived earlier, Sun Tiantian and Youyou had picked a room each, then Shen Qingqing naturally moved in with them. And it was normal for Qin Wei and Qiao Sixiao to room with them too.

Qin Wei had thoughtfully taken the partitioned room with Sun Tiantian, leaving the master bedroom for teacher Qiao.

"Teacher Qin, time for your livestream."

Not even 5 minutes after getting back, the staff were calling her.

All assessments and promotions had stopped, but the livestreams couldn't be neglected.

The anonymous letter thing was just for show, completely useless!

Qin Wei went into the living room and waved at them.

"Hi everyone!"

[Read fanfic!!]

Qin Wei took a sip of hot soy milk and shook her head.

"I'm not reading any more, boring. If there's nothing shockingly original, I won't read any more fanfic."

[You haven't done anything shocking either! Nothing to write about.]

Qin Wei went to the cabinet to grab some seeds and started cracking them while reading comments.

"Tell me what it is."

[Fuck<(`^ ?)>]

[Some trashy gossip site said you're the mistress of a wealthy businessman]

[What businessman would be so blind]

[Rich guys aren't idiots]

[Only CEOs in romance novels like dumb girls]

[Normal CEOs like the female second lead!]

[Right, what rich guy would get wealthy liking an idiot]

Qin Wei put down her seeds. Something didn't seem right no matter how she looked at it...

"Are you guys trying to argue against this rumor? Or avoiding landmines for the businessman?"

[Arguing for you, idiot!]

"You..."

Qin Wei held back from swearing.

"Send the link to the crew. Let me see which blind businessman it is."

The netizens quickly sent the link to the crew. A staff member brought over a laptop for her to see.

Qin Wei cracked seeds while reading it. Turned out it was a long piece.

It was assertive in detail about how they met, got together, she became a mistress, nothing was missed.

Sheesh, actually written really passionately. At the end it even evolved into a loving relationship...

By the time Qin Wei finished half the seeds, she finally looked at the camera.

"This is serialized?"

Comments -

[Damn]

[So damn funny]

Qin Wei couldn't even crack seeds anymore and complained in frustration.

"It's not even finished!

What happens after? What else did the businessman say to me? Is the contract still on?

Ugh, why leave me hanging...so annoying unfinished stuff! Most annoying thing ever. When's the next update??"

[Girl got dirt on you and you're mad you can't read what happens next?]

[It's not even true?]

[Apparently not true. What kind of person eagerly reads their own scandal? I knew no businessman could be so blind. Chasing an idiot tsk tsk]

[I feel they're mocking Qin Wei's style...]

[Sue for libel! This is slander you hear me!]

Qin Wei nodded firmly.

"Right, definitely suing! Help me gather evidence, every chapter, don't miss anything!"

[We're done for. Let's get out of here. She just wants to read the next chapters.]

[You see how she is. No one would believe she's a mistress lol!]

[First time I wanna argue against the rumors for the businessman's sake...]
