Chapter 62: Chapter 62: A Jiu Lou Yu Wants to Take the Graduate Exam? Does She Deserve It?!

The paparazzo shivered all over.

"No... really, I don’t have."

Ji Xizhi’s fingers played with the camera, her expression lazy.

Paparazzo: "... It’s Hangxing Entertainment."

Ji Xizhi was not surprised.

She raised an eyebrow, "Continue."

The paparazzo was on the verge of tears, "..."

Ji Xizhi wasn’t just any lawyer; she could interrogate criminals with ease!

The paparazzo was about to confess when Ji Xizhi reminded him again.

"Just a friendly reminder, everything you say might become evidence in court later. I may need this segment in court, so be truthful and detailed. Later, you might also be called to testify."

Paparazzo: !!! Testify in court???

He was utterly stunned. He knew about the lawsuit between Hangxing Entertainment and Ji Xizhi, but he didn’t intend to get involved.

Now not only was he involved, but he was also witnessing against Ji Xizhi.

Paparazzo: He was truly speechless.

But looking at Ji Xizhi, he thought it was better to be honest.

The paparazzo confessed everything in great detail, then took out his phone call records, and voice recordings as proof.

Being a paparazzo, he always kept a backup plan.

Only today, this backup plan was successfully intercepted by Ji Xizhi.

Once the paparazzo finished, Ji Xizhi finally put away the camera, skillfully removed the memory card inside, and then returned the device to the paparazzo.

The paparazzo had helped Ji Xizhi record all the evidence, and the tension in his heart slowly dissipated.

Perhaps because he had turned against Hangxing Entertainment and sided with Ji Xizhi, he felt much closer to her.

The two walked side by side out of the alley and as they stepped out, the paparazzo saw the flashing hotel sign and suddenly recalled something, asking Ji Xizhi: "Wait, Sister Ji, you went to the alley just now... were you waiting for me?"

Ji Xizhi nodded casually and let out a soft "hmm" from her throat, "The hotel entrance has a surveillance camera, convenient for collecting evidence."

At the time, she thought it might be a kidnapping case, so she specially looked for the camera’s position, but it turned out to be just a paparazzo, so it wasn’t needed.

The paparazzo turned ashen-faced.

He believed it. This time, he really believed the rumors that Ji Xizhi was a devilish lawyer!

In this circle, you must never mess with a lawyer!!!

The paparazzo kept this in mind, walked up to his car, opened the door, and prepared to get in, looking at Ji Xizhi who was coming over, he looked at Ji Xizhi with a flattering expression.

"Should I drive you back?"

Ji Xizhi: "No need, I have other things to do."

The paparazzo instinctively asked: "Ah? What other thing?"

Ji Xizhi pointed to the bustling school gate opposite and pulled the mask back up, saying, "Graduate school exam."

Paparazzo: "???"

His legs went weak, and he fell to his knees directly on the car doorstep.

-

Ji Xizhi didn’t notice the paparazzo’s expression. After speaking, she crossed the zebra crossing and headed towards the exam school.

She set off early in the morning, allowing ample time, and just finished dealing with the paparazzo on time.

A lot of people had already gathered at the school gate. Ji Xizhi put on her hat and mask and joined the mass heading towards the exam hall.

Among the crowded, there were many fans mixed in.

A girl in a white sweater, arm in arm with another girl in a black jacket, went inside together.

The girl with the white sweater, holding a transparent file bag, appeared somewhat happy, "My mom promised that if I do well on the graduate exam, she’ll pay for me to go to Lu Lu’s birthday party!"

The girl in the black jacket replied, "Your mom is the best. I really want to go too, but my dad won’t let me."

"Too bad, try to find a way to persuade your dad! Recently, Lu Lu has been feeling pretty down. I can clearly feel in the fan group that she hasn’t been happy lately and rarely shows up. For this birthday party, I plan to ask my mom for a higher allowance to make Lu Lu happier!"

"Yeah, true, I feel that Lu Lu shouldn’t have joined that ’Life Experience’ show!"

"It’s not about joining; it’s all Ji Xizhi’s fault! It’s because Ji Xizhi came that things turned out this way. If Ji Xizhi hadn’t done the reversal on the show, using the contract with Hangxing Entertainment for sympathy, Lu Lu wouldn’t be like this!" The girl in the white sweater immediately retorted through gritted teeth upon hearing this: "Ji Xizhi is disgusting, her fans are disgusting, last time Lu Lu went to find Director Wang it was clearly an accident, Lu Lu already apologized, yet Ji Xizhi remains relentless, stepping on Lu Lu to climb up!"

The girl in the white sweater had a face full of resentment, evidently having had several tussles online with Ji Xizhi’s fans.

"Her fans love to use the chicken feathers as a token of authority, constantly threatening to sue. If it weren’t for..." The girl in the white sweater was speaking when suddenly her voice halted.

The girl in the black jacket unconsciously looked up, "If it weren’t for what?"

The girl in the white sweater was momentarily taken aback, but without time to explain, she directly grabbed the girl in the black jacket and dashed forward.

The girl in the black jacket: "What happened? Don’t hurry, we still have time!"

The girl in the white sweater had no time for further explanations and said, "I think I saw Ji Xizhi!"

In this entertainment circle, within the fan community, aside from their own idol, the one they know most about would surely be their idol’s rival.

Even if Ji Xizhi turned into ashes, she could recognize her.

The girl in the black jacket was dragged as they ascended to the third floor, hearing the words of the girl in the white sweater, she looked up in shock, "What? How could Ji Xizhi be here? Isn’t today the graduate exam?"

As they spoke, the two had already reached the third floor.

The girl in the white sweater followed Ji Xizhi all the way to the exam classroom entrance. The classroom had not yet opened, and a large number of students waited in the corridor.

The girl in the white sweater released the girl in the black jacket and quietly edged closer to Ji Xizhi among the crowd.

The closer she got, the more she confirmed that the person before her was indeed Ji Xizhi.

Ji Xizhi had the audacity to take the graduate exam too?!

The girl in the white sweater laughed mockingly as she pulled out her phone, snapping several shots in Ji Xizhi’s direction.

She originally planned to post online for ridicule after the exam ended.

Just after taking the photos, Ji Xizhi moved from the classroom entrance.

The classroom entrance began checking, and people in the corridor started queuing to enter the exam hall.

Only Ji Xizhi placed her bag on the table at the exam hall entrance and then headed toward the restroom.

The girl in the white sweater’s eyes sparkled.

She glanced at the time on her phone, under ten minutes until the exam starts. She grabbed the girl in the black jacket beside her.

"Let’s check it out!"

The girl in the black jacket was a bit anxious, "No way, the exam is about to start. Let’s go upstairs to the exam first!"

The girl in the white sweater refused to let go, "Just five minutes, five minutes!"

She forcefully dragged the girl in the black jacket towards the restroom area.

As the exam neared, there weren’t many people in the restroom.

The two lightened their steps as they walked into the restroom.

The restrooms on this floor of the school were few, and the restroom doors were the old-fashioned sliding type.

The girl in the white sweater placed her index finger on her lips, peeked inside to see the other restroom doors empty, except the one near the window, its door closed.

It must be Ji Xizhi inside!

Smirking proudly, she picked up a mop from the bucket at the toilet door, tiptoed to the innermost position, and jammed the restroom door from which Ji Xizhi might emerge.

There were less than five minutes to the graduate exam, Ji Xizhi definitely wouldn’t make it out, hahaha!

Can a rotten fish pass the graduate exam? Does she deserve it?!
