Chapter 226: Chapter 156 Collapse into Ruins (Two in One)

The black sedan moved smoothly forward, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou sat in the backseat, the interior of the car quiet and peaceful.

Jiang Ning turned on her phone.

Before participating in the show, Jiang Ning had expressly saved up 32 days of life value, and although the show ended early, she was left with less than ten days of life value.

Jiang Ning looked thoughtful, realizing she would need to take on some tasks during this time.

Jiang Ning was the type with zero social life, with no close kin and no good friends.

Having not turned on her phone in nearly a month, the missed calls and unread messages were in single digits.

The missed calls seemed eerily like scam numbers.

As for the unread messages... the one at the top was actually sent three minutes ago by Ji Shuang and Huo Miao.

Jiang Ning couldn’t help but glance at Qi Xingzhou, who sat upright next to her.

She opened both of their messages separately.

Ji Shuang and Huo Miao had watched the live broadcast; they knew that Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou were together. Ji Shuang was asking if she had time and if it was convenient to drop Qi Xingzhou off at the airport; they would meet them at Capital City Airport.

Huo Miao was even more forthright; he had once again transferred money to Jiang Ning, under the guise of a thank-you fee for Jiang Ning’s care of his brother on the show.

Jiang Ning:...

She refunded the money to Huo Miao’s WeChat and then responded to Ji Shuang’s message.

Jiang Ning: Auntie, we are already on our way to the airport.

Then, Jiang Ning exited the WeChat page and opened the flight booking app, discovering that the next flight to Capital City was in two hours.

Considering they only needed a little over half an hour to reach the airport, they would make it in time.

Jiang Ning turned her head to ask Qi Xingzhou, "Do you remember your ID number?"

Qi Xingzhou nodded.

Then Jiang Ning said, "Send it to me, I’ll book the plane tickets together, and then we’ll go home together."

Upon hearing the words "go home," Qi Xingzhou’s eyes filled with a different light.

His heart leapt with joy, feeling as if a pie had dropped from the sky.

Jiang Ning was taking him home.

Qi Xingzhou immediately took out his phone, which had been on for ages, ignoring all the unread messages from the family group chat. He opened WeChat, found Jiang Ning’s chat window, sent his ID number with serious and solemn care, and then forwarded it to Jiang Ning.

After receiving Qi Xingzhou’s ID number, Jiang Ning copied and pasted it, quickly booking the tickets for both of them.

She sent the flight information to Ji Shuang, who immediately transferred the price of the tickets, saying many words of thanks to Jiang Ning.

Booking two plane tickets had cost Jiang Ning less than five hundred, yet Ji Shuang transferred over five thousand directly. Jiang Ning, of course, did not accept this money.

After chatting with Ji Shuang, Jiang Ning relaxed, leaned back, and closed her eyes.

She left her black-screened phone to one side.

Even with her phone in hand, Jiang Ning had no desire to go online and look up any news from this period.

Her relationship with the production team was, after all, just an employment contract. Now that the recording was finished, it was akin to her work coming to an end.

As for the audience’s opinions of her, Jiang Ning was not the slightest bit interested.

She had already been cursed by netizens for more than a year and had long since developed a thick skin.

In contrast to the composed Jiang Ning, the other guests couldn’t wait to turn on their phones as soon as they got in the car, eager to search online for news about themselves from this period.

Celebrities had wider social circles; once they turned on their phones, they were immediately inundated with countless missed calls and unread messages.

Huo Miao gripped her phone tightly, ignoring the missed calls and unread messages, and quickly opened Mengbo.

Her Mengbo was logged into her celebrity account, and as soon as she entered Mengbo, the messages were innumerable. Huo Miao shakily clicked on the unread comments to find tens of thousands of densely packed comments, all cursing her!

Even the private messages, which normally contained only praise, were all insults and ridicule.

Dark Corner: Yo, yo, yo! Fake heiress! Stealing Jiang Ning’s identity, jacking Jiang Ning’s parents and family! And still, you have the nerve to slander Jiang Ning! How can the world have such an evil person as you! Your skin is thicker than a pig’s!

Dream Fantasy★Morning Star: Sneaking around to eat the good food in the program, you pushed the devoted Huo Ziheng off the cliff! When Mu Mingxuan tried to save you, you kicked him towards death, and afterward, you had the gall to pretend to be Jiang Ning, turning yourself into Mu Mingxuan’s lifesaver? Truly, anyone who crosses you is cursed!

Can’t Quit: Mu Mingxuan’s mother said in an interview with reporters that she doesn’t accept you, the one who took Jiang Ning’s place, as a future daughter-in-law~

One Person: Have you left the variety show? Have you seen my message? Now you know what it’s like to be cyberbullied, huh! Don’t rush! Believe in the power of us netizens, all the things you don’t want Mu Mingxuan or Huo Ziheng to know, we’ll happily spread for you!!!
