In the yard, after Qin Yutian finished speaking with Ji Xizhi, his high spirits gradually calmed down.
He looked down and opened his phone, seeing that Qin Xuan’s call had already ended.
Qin Yutian didn’t mind, as he was fully focused on how to trick Director Wang tomorrow. He even wanted to go back to his room overnight to write a three or four-point plan, leaving no time for chatting.
Besides, he and his cousin had a good relationship, and he usually spoiled him the most, it was probably just that he was too serious in his speech just now, which was why Qin Xuan threw a tantrum.
Once the program recording is over, he’ll ask Zhong Yulu for a signed photo to cheer him up when he gets home.
Thinking about this, Qin Yutian slowly shuffled back to his room.
On another end, after parting with Qin Yutian, Ji Xizhi first went to find Director Wang to get the contact information for the lawyer who could make introductions.
Director Wang was lying in the room browsing Weibo; this whole afternoon, the trending topics were almost all filled with "Life Experience" related terms, and the show’s super topics were buzzing.
He was celebrating the New Year in the program group, and the program group was like celebrating big time on Weibo’s hot search rankings!
This episode’s traffic and commercial sponsorships were rolling in, making Director Wang grinning from ear to ear.
When he heard Ji Xizhi came, he welcomed her in like he was greeting a fortune.
Ji Xizhi: "Director Wang, I’ve completed my task, could you please give me the contact details of that lawyer."
Not that Ji Xizhi couldn’t find a lawyer, but finding a good lawyer with experience in various entertainment lawsuits needed careful selection. Besides, some require queue appointments, and Ji Xizhi, busy with exam preparation, wasn’t familiar with the legal industry, so she agreed to Director Wang’s condition in the afternoon.
Director Wang was still holding his phone and was stunned to hear this.
Was Ji Xizhi joking with him!
He quickly looked down at his phone screen to verify it was displaying a popular Weibo post from the evening.
Qi Zheng, a gold medal lawyer certified by Tianzheng Law Firm, had called out on Weibo to have a conversation with Ji Xizhi!
So did he still need to provide that contact information???
She even managed to pull the standard of the Tianzheng Law Firm!
Director Wang’s mind was about to collapse.
That afternoon he boasted about introducing Ji Xizhi to a rookie lawyer from Tianzheng Law Firm. He figured Ji Xizhi had no background in the industry, and not everyone could make appointments with Tianzheng Law Firm. By introducing her, he could do her a favor.
But he never expected that in just one afternoon, Qi Zheng, the golden reputation lawyer, would actively seek out Ji Xizhi!
He, as a director, found this plot ridiculous beyond belief!
Director Wang moped for a minute but ultimately considered that communicating via Weibo and adding each other as friends might be inconvenient for both Ji Xizhi and Qi Zheng, so he forwarded the WeChat contact to Ji Xizhi.
Ji Xizhi casually sent a friend request and then returned to her room.
In the evening, with the live broadcast camera fixed, the other program group’s guests who had worked all day were either lying down early to rest or struggling to chat with fans.
Only Ji Xizhi adeptly pulled out a test paper upon entering the room— it was time for her problem-solving session!
Now, fans in Ji Xizhi’s live channel were no longer surprised by this; they just quietly followed along, pulling out papers if they had questions or books if they had them. Anyway, studying together with Ji Xizhi was the way to go!
Ji Xizhi’s live channel was peaceful, with minimal live chat, but the viewership kept skyrocketing!
By the end of the two-hour study session, the number of viewers in her live channel had surpassed the 10 million mark.
When she put away her papers, everyone was left wanting more.
[It’s over already? I feel like I haven’t learned enough, this study environment makes me feel like I could keep at it for another 300 years!]
[Ahhhh, I came late and missed it, I lost a billion! Damn you, games, for causing this! I’m camping in Ji Xizhi’s live channel now!]
[Everyone, while studying, remember to rest as well. Zhi Zhi can manage her time so well, mixing study and rest! If you like Zhi Zhi and want to follow her life, you can join the "Zhi Zhi Global Fan Support Group 3", the admin will keep everyone updated!]
[Let me join the group! I need it!! My mom used to scold me every time she saw me on my phone, but today she praised me, saying I picked the right role model!]
[Postgraduate exam candidate checking in for the first day of quitting phone addiction! If only Zhi Zhi could guide me to study every day!]
Someone echoed this sentiment in the live channel.
Everyone suddenly realized.
Wait a minute, Ji Xizhi only signed on for one episode of "Life Experience," so doesn’t that mean once the show ends the day after, they won’t be able to study with Zhi Zhi anymore?!
It was a bolt from the blue!
A swath of fans scrambled to Director Wang’s Weibo, asking if this episode could be extended for a year! Some fans cleverly sought out the boards of directors from major variety show investors, passionately advocating for her.
And not long after, Director Wang was shaken awake from a sweet dream by his assistant: "Director Wang, a big investor wants to fund our program for a year!!!"
Director Wang was drooling in his sleep: "?" Did a pie really fall from the sky!
By the time Ji Xizhi finished her shower, it was already late at night.
While drying her hair, she glanced at Weibo.
The lawyer Director Wang mentioned hadn’t approved her WeChat friend request yet, so she planned to go online to see if any new evidence could be collected.
She casually opened the trending topics, just as the #JiXizhiReportCardRealOrFake# tag climbed back up into the trending list at 11 PM.
The reason was none other than a Weibo user by the name of "How Many People Is Ji Xizhi Sleeping With Tonight?" kept it afloat.
The rumor mill post about Ji Xizhi’s report card from this afternoon that got pushed down not long ago, with the major account deleting their original post.
Now this black fan had screenshotted it and bought spot on the trending list again.
"How Many People Is Ji Xizhi Sleeping With Tonight?": Heard some doubt about the rumor’s authenticity? Let me authenticate it for everyone then, I specially went out of my way to find a teacher from the school to verify, they said this is indeed Ji Xizhi’s report card, she is a lazy student, trash, got it? You idiotic fans aren’t repulsed by chasing garbage? [Picture][Picture][Picture][Picture]
Below was an influx of over two hundred comments of unknown bystanders or trolls following along.
[Ji Biao Get Out of the Entertainment Circle: Support! Tear off Ji Xizhi’s mask! Sue her! If out of funds, we’ll crowdsource, I got your back!]
[Abominable797: So she really is a lazy student, and she still suppressed trending topics, too shameless!]
[TrustBuddha286: Brother Sleep dares to post every time, aren’t you afraid Ji Xizhi is really going to sue you? Although I support you, protect yourself, Brother Sleep!]
[CoolGuy007: Exactly, do you have enough money, Brother Sleep?]
["How Many People Is Ji Xizhi Sleeping With Tonight?": Responding to everyone, I’ve got money, not afraid of lawsuits! I’ve said, I’m a person who likes to tell some truths, not these fake things. Don’t worry about me, my old man runs a factory, I have plenty of lawyer connections! The most I would need to pay a few ten thousand for defamation, it’s just a meal ticket to me!]
Ji Xizhi leisurely looked through Weibo; compared to the black fans’ tantrums, her emotions appeared much calmer.
How much she scored doesn’t matter to others, nor does she need to prove anything to anyone, whether she is a lazy student is not validated by a single report card.
However... these people exposing her private report card actually provided her with a new chain of evidence material.
Calculating the time, the documents she submitted for prosecution should soon result in the court establishing a case!
