"There are so many people at the station who are less talented than me, and not as good-looking either—but they either know the big boss or have been ’taken care of’ by the higher-ups at the station. I’m not willing to do that, and I can’t swallow my pride. Tell me, other than hyping up scandals, what else can I do!"
Because of the gossip surrounding her, she was even criticized by Wang Shuoming as a "battle-hardened" "YU girl"! But for a woman with no money, no background, and no desire to sell herself, it’s incredibly difficult to make a name in the chaotic entertainment industry.
Jian Anning fell silent for a moment, then said after some thought, "I’ll try to get Zexiao to come in for an exclusive interview at the station after he finishes shooting! Don’t you have that talk show? Zexiao is at the peak of his career right now; if he could appear on your program, it should really boost your popularity."
"That would be great!" Zhao Ziyin immediately nodded, her smile filled with pride, "This time, those little vixens at the station will surely die of jealousy! Not to mention, Huang Lingling, who last time blatantly stole the guest I had invited, just because she has the support of the vice president of the station, huh. Let’s see how she can compete with me this time!"
Jian Anning was speechless and just about to speak when a WeChat message came in: "Why haven’t you arrived yet?"
It was from Yu Zexiao.
Jian Anning didn’t know how to respond. Before she could send a message, another one came: "I’m already cleaned up and lying in bed waiting for you, remember to wear the ’qing-qu’ lingerie when you come over!"
Jian Anning’s face felt feverish, but luckily in the darkness, Zhao Ziyin couldn’t see. However, her phone kept ringing.
"It’s work-related." Jian Anning feigned calmness as she switched her phone to silent mode and turned off the screen, "Zexiao and I both got injured today, so I’m reporting to the boss. It’s late, we should sleep."
"Yeah." Zhao Ziyin said as she gently closed her eyes.
Jian Anning didn’t dare to move; she remembered Zhao Ziyin’s deep sleep, once she was out, she wouldn’t wake up even if you set off firecrackers next to her. After waiting a while, she heard the steady breathing next to her. That’s when Yu Zexiao’s WeChat message came in again: "Why aren’t you ready yet!!!!!"
Four exclamation marks, clearly showing his extreme eagerness. Jian Anning was slightly speechless, but now she had time to reply, "Coming soon."
Just those three words, and Yu Zexiao’s anxious emotions immediately dissipated. He replied with just two words and two punctuation marks: "Hurry! Hurry!"
Jian Anning nodded, and was just about to get out of bed when Zhao Ziyin suddenly woke up!
Jian Anning got a scare and immediately said, "I, I’m going to use the bathroom."
"Oh." Zhao Ziyin sounded more and more nasal, and didn’t bother with her anymore as she went back to sleep. Jian Anning finally breathed a sigh of relief and decided to first change into the "qing-qu" lingerie that Yu Zexiao had specifically requested in the restroom.
As soon as she opened the package, Jian Anning was mortified. This lingerie was practically a bikini! No, more outrageous than a bikini because it felt like just three strings!
And the G-string below literally had no effect in covering anything at all. Because it was just two strings!
