Chapter 54: Kicked an Iron Plate!

Lin Qingyan had also found out from chatting with the producer and director.
Neither the Zuo family nor Tianle Media had any intention of protecting Si Fuqing.
After the funeral of the Zuo family patriarch, even though the Zuos hadn’t officially announced Si Fuqing’s expulsion, it was well-known in Lin what their stance was.
Previously, with the Zuo family backing her, Lin Qingyan had been reluctant to burn bridges.
But now?
In the entertainment industry, Si Fuqing was at the bottom rung.
Once she became useless, she would be discarded immediately.
Unlike Lin Qingyan, who was one of the hottest female idols.
“The whole matter doesn’t really affect you much, given that you already have plenty of haters,” Lin Qingyan smirked. “Besides, you’ve cleared your name, and netizens have even been bashing Ruotong for you.” “In this whole affair, you’ve actually come out on top. Can’t you just let it go?”
She never expected that Si Fuqing would have a video on hand.
Who records videos while simply walking?
Si Fuqing continued to enjoy her food, acting as if no one were in front of her.
Just when Lin Qingyan was about to lose her patience, Si Fuqing finally polished off her chicken leg. After wiping her hands, she lifted her head and arched an eyebrow. “So you two know each other. That explains it.”
Lin Qingyan’s expression shifted subtly, but she maintained her smile. “If Ruotong hadn’t tweeted, I wouldn’t have known there was a friction between you two. The entertainment circle is small; we’ll run into each other sooner or later. ”
Of course, she would never let Si Fuqing know she had anything to do with this. Si Fuqing slowly stood up.
Her height of 1.72 meters and her long, straight legs gave her an imposing stature.
For a moment, Lin Qingyan, despite her 8 cm heels, couldn’t help but take a step back.
“Don’t panic,” Si Fuqing tossed the bottle in her hand. “I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll spare you. But you’d better behave.”
“To think you’d dare cross me maliciously. You’re rather brave.”
She took the last sip of her cola and casually tossed the plastic bottle.
It landed with a ‘thud,’ hitting the trash can five meters away.
The cafeteria fell silent.
Si Fuqing turned her head and scanned the gawking trainees. “Group battles are coming up, and you’re here for the show? Want to join in?”
Mu Ye was about to retort, but he remembered the day Si Fuqing had kicked open the door to the dance room.
He clenched his fists, holding his breath.
“Don’t bother with her,” Lu Yan said indifferently. “She may have cleared her name quickly, but grudges have built up over time. Our fans will still demand that she leave the show.”
“Don’t forget, Teacher Lin has a video of her acting like a diva. Once that gets out, she’s doomed.’
Mu Ye exhaled slowly, feeling slightly better.
Lin Qingyan still stood there, her face also looking rather unpleasant.
“Teacher Lin,” Mu Ye said courteously, “are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Lin Qingyan snapped back to reality and pursed her lips, looking quite troubled. “Ruotong is my friend; she’s always been the type to act impulsively for what she believes is right. ”
“She tweeted that for the patient’s sake. But as for Teacher Si…”
“Teacher Lin, we’ll definitely report this to the company,” Mu Ye understood the subtext. “Don’t worry. Si Fuqing is under contract with the company. If they tell her to go east, she won’t dare go west.”
Lin Qingyan looked somewhat surprised. “I’m still your mentor; it’s not quite appropriate for you to go to such lengths for me, is it?”
“Don’t worry, Teacher Lin, ” Mu Ye reassured her. “It’s my duty.”
Si Fuqing really didn’t know what was good for her, insisting on opposing Lin Qingyan.
Of course, Mu Ye’s support for Lin Qingyan was also motivated by his desire to establish a good relationship with her, hoping to connect with Glenn in the future.
“Alright, let’s get back to practice after lunch,” Lin Qingyan finally revealed a smile. “I heard that if you win in the group battles, you can challenge the mentors. ”
Mu Ye’s eyes lit up but he said nothing.
Having achieved her purpose, Lin Qingyan pressed her lips into a satisfied smile and turned to leave.
In the lounge, Si Fuqing leaned back in her plush chair, eyes fixed on her computer screen.
[Ji]: I checked the tracking, and the talismans I sent you have entered the country. You should receive them the day after tomorrow at the latest.
[Ji]: Not to complain, but the fees on the Eastern Mulberry side are exorbitant. Just for a few talismans, they charged me hundreds.
[NINE]: Oh.
[Ji]: You’re so cold; my heart is shattered into eight pieces. [NINE]: Friendly reminder: you are about to lose a friend.
[Ji]: Sorry, my heart has regenerated!
Si Fuqing casually scanned Ji’s monologue while massaging her legs.
Soon after, a voice call notification popped up.
After contemplating for three seconds, Si Fuqing accepted the call, lowering her voice, “Hello?”
“Emergency!” The man’s voice on the other end was frantic. “I’ve used up all my guardian spirits, my energy is running low, and a couple of Eastern Mulberry’s Masters of Yin-Yang are setting up an array. Quickly, help me choose an escape route!”
Si Fuqing paused. “How old are you?”
“Ji Xingzhi, the sixty-second generation of the Ji family, ranked first, twenty-five years old, ” he declared proudly. “I’m older than you, right? How about calling me ‘Brother’ for once?”
Si Fuqing’s voice turned sarcastic, “It seems like you’re itching for a lesson.”
“Bro, you’re my brother, I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” Ji Xingzhi’s breathing quickened. “Hurry and help me decipher this array! These lowlifes took advantage of me when I was off guard. It’s despicable!”
“Fine,” Si Fuqing finally put on her headset, speaking languidly. “Considering you’re on the brink of death, I’ll offer remote guidance. Do as I say.”
Simultaneously, her computer screen displayed the scene sent over by Ji Xingzhi.
The camera showed complete darkness, occasionally punctuated by flickering lights.
“Quite the spectacle,” Si Fuqing’s eyes narrowed. “With this kind of setup, I wouldn’t be surprised if they summon the “Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts”. Did you steal their heirloom or run off with their wife?”
Ji Xingzhi yelled, “Stop talking and save me!”
Si Fuqing quickly scanned the intricate array sprawled on the ground. She opened a drawing software and rapidly sketched a diagram of the formation, sending it over.
“Advance three meters in the northwest direction, then six meters in the southwest direction, and then…” Her voice was calm and methodical.
The panting in her earpiece grew louder as Ji Xingzhi seemingly sprinted for his life.
Thirty seconds later, the darkness in the camera frame lifted, and daylight returned.
“Who exactly taught you all this?” Ji Xingzhi, now safe and flopped on the ground, was more puzzled than relieved. “You’re certainly not from the Ji family, but aside from us, where else do the Masters of Yin-Yang inherit their craft?”
“Moreover, you’re an odd one. You don’t seem well-versed in luck or physiognomy, just combat? Smash through everything with absolute force?”
Those who could actually fight were rare.
So how did a weirdo like NINE, who only knew how to fight, come about?
Si Fuqing replied, looking utterly unconcerned, “Ah, the shame. I’m just a self-taught amateur, nothing noteworthy.”
Ji Xingzhi: ‘
Self- taught?Accidentally?
Was he being deliberately annoying?
He was seething but had no choice but to swallow it.
“You say you’re good at gaming, even dabble well in the Yin and Yang, as well as Five Elements,” Ji Xingzhi sounded a bit sour. “I know that the time ratio in holographic games is 10:1 compared to real life, so I also practice arrays there. But why are you so skilled? Brother, teach me.”
“Why am I skilled?” Si Fuqing fell silent for a moment. After a few seconds, she chuckled softly, almost inaudibly, “Because I’ve lost a lot.”
Ji Xingzhi’s expression changed, “NINE, you..
“Enough, problem solved. Hanging up,” Si Fuqing’s mood shifted abruptly. “I’m teaching my students to dance. If you’re not dead, don’t bother me. If you die, I’ll send a coffin to your grave, dig it yourself.”
Ji Xingzhi: ‘
The top combatant among the Masters of Yin – Yang is going to dance.
Has the world gone mad?
On the other side, in Yu Xiheng’s villa.
Yu Tang was in her room, engaged in a fierce intellectual battle with real haters, disguised as a hater.
She had captured many screenshots of these haters slinging mud and sent them both to Si Fuqing and Yu Xiheng.
In the second-floor study,
Yu Xiheng was grinding ink, his voice mild, “The Chen family?”
Feng San understood, flipping through the documents, “In terms of family influence here in the city of Lin, the Zuo family ranks first, the Chen family third.”
“However, last year the Chen family secured a project in the eastern area of the city of Sijiu. They are about to develop a mine in the western part of the city of Lin, so they are quite prosperous right now.”
“The current Mrs. Chen comes from a new money background and has brought considerable liquid assets to the Chen family. She’s given birth to three children for the head of the family, but she has never shed her vulgarity.”
The Chen family had no idea that in just a minute, nine generations of their family’s information lay before Yu Xiheng.
ZERO.
Ranked alongside T18 as the world’s top two intelligence agencies.
There was virtually nothing ZERO couldn’t find out.
Originally, there were no exceptions, but now Si Fuqing had become one.
Using ZERO to check on the Chen family was indeed overkill.
“Mm,” Yu Xiheng dropped a simple word onto the white rice paper, “Take them back.”
Feng San complied, his expression grave, “Yes, Brother Nine.”
If they didn’t flex their muscles a bit, people would forget who really held the
reins in the city of Sijiu..
