[Again with the waiting? I remember last time at the airport, Ji Xizhi was the last one to arrive before joining the show!]
[Isn’t she all about being punctual? Doesn’t she know how to be on time?]
[This is hilarious, she’s already crashed her own reputation, especially after the big talk about graduate exams not too long ago. I can’t wait to see which school will actually accept her when her results come out!]
A lot of people who were following the graduate exam drama feel uncomfortable just at the sight of Ji Xizhi’s name in the comments section.
Zhong Yulu looked at the comments rolling in and her brows eased a bit.
Ever since the show ended, Ji Xizhi’s popularity has skyrocketed like a rocket. She’s been hyping up the lawsuit with Hangxing Entertainment so much that she’s practically as popular as a rising star now.
Even a few scripts that Zhong Yulu had her eyes on were handed over to Ji Xizhi! Ji Xizhi can’t match up to her in any way, no iconic works, no acting skills. On what basis? Just because she knows how to hype things up?!
Zhong Yulu was utterly deflated with anger until the news about Ji Xizhi’s graduate exams surfaced.
That’s when she started to recover slowly.
This time participating in the live broadcast, she was determined to showcase herself well.
Especially now when Ji Xizhi was distracted, it was her time to shine.
In the live room, because Ji Xizhi wasn’t showing her full face on camera, fans were leaving more and more comments.
In the end, they even prompted Director Wang, who was secretly watching the live room, to call Ji Xizhi.
Ji Xizhi was in her hotel room, watching the broadcast of the program on Fire Dragon Fruit Video, taking it very seriously.
The edited version of the program was much better than the live broadcast; where legal issues were involved, the production team carefully inserted small text with legal clauses and related explanations for public legal education.
Ji Xizhi was very satisfied with this and was watching it with great interest.
Suddenly, her phone rang; it was a call from Director Wang. Focused on watching the drama, Ji Xizhi didn’t think to avoid the live camera and directly answered the call.
Director Wang: "Ji Xizhi, what are you doing? You’re supposed to be watching with everyone on the live stream!"
As soon as Director Wang finished speaking, his voice echoed back from the live room he was watching.
Director Wang: "..." Used to it.
Ji Xizhi, hearing Director Wang’s words, was somewhat surprised and said, "I’m watching!"
Director Wang was furious: "??? Then where are you in the live room!"
Ji Xizhi turned the phone screen toward the hotel’s TV.
On the TV, the variety show "Life Experience" was being broadcast in sync.
Ji Xizhi: "I’m already at the contract signing part; the later contract terms were done very well, worthy of a reward!"
Director Wang was numb: "................?"
Most people accompany fans by chatting with them during live broadcasts while watching shows together.
Ji Xizhi, however, during a live broadcast, was genuinely just watching the show herself?
Director Wang felt a familiar tightness in his chest again, suffocating!
The audience in the live room, who had initially been led by Zhong Yulu, froze when they saw Ji Xizhi flip the camera.
[Hm? I’m watching the show, and she’s watching the show? Doesn’t seem wrong???]
[I went back to check the official blog; it says the guests are watching the show with everyone. Now with Ji Xizhi...emm how to say it, she’s watching but also isn’t?]
[Hahahahaha honest girl strikes again! Those who watched the full live stream say if Director Wang wants to argue with Ji Xizhi about this, he’d really need the contract for it to be convincing!]
[Feels like Ji Xizhi is pretty focused on watching. I’m going to focus on watching the show too!]
[I have to say, that rhythm brought by a certain guest in the live room earlier was spot on! Directly targeting Ji Xizhi!]
[? Trying to help out and getting criticized? Lu Lu, don’t bother explaining next time; saves certain people’s fans from barking madly!]
In the live room, Zhong Yulu saw Ji Xizhi clarify so quickly, and there were even sarcastic comments against her in the comments section, which made her a bit angry.
But thinking about how Ji Xizhi would be finished by tomorrow, her anger gradually subsided.
It’s just one night; after enduring it, tomorrow Ji Xizhi would be done for!
Heard that Ji Xizhi was so suppressed by Hangxing Entertainment that she couldn’t even afford a lawyer, Zhong Yulu wanted to see how Ji Xizhi could turn the tables!!!
Director Wang watched Ji Xizhi’s unexpected actions attract quite a few people to genuinely focus on the variety show, feeling a bit bewildered.
Previously, most people in the live room were busy interacting and chatting with their idols, with not many actually focused on the variety show.
But ever since Ji Xizhi spoke, the guests interacting with fans in the live room significantly decreased.
Instead, more and more people focused on watching the show; many viewers laughed heartily at lively scenes and occasionally discussed the show’s plot in the live room.
Due to the length of the show, the production team decided to broadcast it in two parts.
After today’s portion ended, discussions about the show’s plot were already trending online.
Some summarized the educational legal knowledge provided; others created clips of Ji Xizhi’s remarkable moments, while some made memes of Director Wang’s heart attack expressions needing oxygen.
The show’s premiere popularity surged dramatically.
And at the center of the frenzy, Ji Xizhi herself had logged off, organized her case materials, and gone to sleep.
On the day of the trial, Ji Xizhi arrived at the city courthouse on time, specially dressed in formal attire and carrying all her documents.
The legal team from Hangxing Entertainment arrived almost simultaneously.
President Zheng, who had been quite irritated by Ji Xizhi lately, had rescheduled other work to attend the trial today.
He had also invited a number of media reporters to wait at the courthouse entrance.
Just waiting for Ji Xizhi to lose the case, the outcome would spread like a snowstorm everywhere.
At the courthouse entrance, Ji Xizhi came face to face with Hangxing Entertainment’s legal team.
Reporters saw the scene charged with tension early in the morning and swarmed over.
Everyone hoped to catch some harsh words exchanged between the two parties before the trial started, to stir up some excitement.
Reporters split into two groups: one to interview Hangxing Entertainment, and the other large portion to interview Ji Xizhi.
After all, Ji Xizhi was the case’s focal point. Hangxing Entertainment was an old player; no one expected their legal team to lose.
Reporters pointed live cameras at Ji Xizhi, but when they looked around, they didn’t see any lawyers around her.
They couldn’t help but be curious, "Ji Xizhi, is your attorney late?"
"Or are you planning to concede before the trial, just giving up?"
Ji Xizhi looked up into the dark camera lens, her expression calm but her voice firm, she said, "I am my own attorney!"
