System in a book: The top female character is completely destroyed

Later, Su Li drove back to the studio.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Jieran sitting in a swivel chair, turning towards her. Her expression seemed to say, "I finally waited for you. I'm glad I didn't give up." Su Li couldn't help but laugh as she walked over to Jieran and patted him on the shoulder. "How's the secret mission I assigned to you going? How's the editing of the PR manuscript going?"

"Everything's OK." Ji Ran gestured confidently and said, "Send it now?"

Su Li was silent for a moment and shook her head: "Wait a little longer."

"Still waiting?" Jie Ran frowned. "It's been trending for so many days now, and netizens' imaginations have already gone astray. If you're any later, you're going to be criticized for what you're doing!"

"He's just a kid, so anxious." Su Li didn't take it seriously and pulled out a chair next to him and sat down. "Even the person involved isn't anxious."

Jieran's face flushed instantly as he was choked. He muttered, "You're only two years older than me. What kid? I'm not a kid! I'm already 23!"

"Yes, yes, you've grown up!" Su Li suppressed her laughter and comforted him. Then she picked up her phone and said, "If you receive an important message, you don't need to issue this statement."

"What news?" asked Jieran.

Su Li put the phone away and continued, "That's too much to say. You should just look at this statement carefully to see if there are any loopholes. If you haven't received any information, we still have to issue the statement. We will return every ounce of garbage that others throw at us."

...

Time passed by minute by minute, and the message still hadn't arrived. Su Li's patience gradually dissipated, and the emotions in her eyes became heavier. She turned her head to meet Ji Ran's curious eyes and sighed deeply.

"In that case, there's no need to wait any longer." Su Li looked at the time on her phone screen, the coldness in her eyes faded as she said to Jie Ran, "Show me the statement."

Jieran quickly opened the statement that he had edited many times, then gave up his seat and motioned Su Li to sit down.

Su Li naturally sat in Jie Ran's chair, quickly read the statement Jie Ran had edited, and after confirming that it was correct, she stood up and said, "Publish it."

"Are you sure?"

Su Li glanced at Jie Ran and said with a smile: "Just now you were the one who kept asking me if I should send it, and now you are also the one asking me if I am sure I should send it, Xiao Ran, you are so contradictory."

Sensing a teasing tone in the words, Ji Ran's fair face turned red again. She ignored Su Li's words in shame and anger and sat back in her seat. She copied and pasted the edited statement into the Weibo editing box. When she was about to send it, a crisp message ringtone came to her ears.

Jieran turned his head to look at Su Li's actions, only to see that the other party silently picked up the phone and looked at it for a while, and a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

That smile seemed to say "you'll know".

Well, this statement is probably invalid...

Jieran thought secretly in his heart, and the next second Su Li patted his shoulder and said in a relaxed tone: "Xiaoran, no need to send it!"

I leaned back in my chair, helplessly looking at the text on the computer screen that I had edited many times...

-

Su Li walked to the lounge with her cell phone and called Xu Xuanran.

"Su Li, I want to talk to you."

"What do you want to talk about?"

"I apologize for any offense I caused in the coffee shop just now. I was too anxious, so my tone was a bit harsh. Now that I've calmed down, I'd like to schedule another meeting to discuss it in detail. Is that okay? I can answer anything you want to know."

"But I said, I've already given you a chance, which means it's too late."

"I know! But my father's illness can't be delayed any longer! I beg you, give me another chance, I need your help, and afterward, no matter what you want me to do, I will agree unconditionally!"

Su Li heard what she wanted to hear, and her tone softened: "Unconditionally agree..."

"Correct!"

"What do you need from me?"

"Leave Guoxing, leave Li Nianchen."

"This difficulty level is extremely high. I'm afraid I can't help..."

Su Li frowned slightly, knowing that Xu Xuanran was looking for her for this matter. After obtaining all of Xu Xuanran's memories, Su Li also understood why this child had endless announcements and filmings over the years, and even her own health was poor and she often fell ill on the crew.

"Can we meet at three tomorrow afternoon to discuss this in detail?"

The other party sent a sincere invitation, and Su Li couldn't bear to refuse, so she accepted it.

After hanging up the phone, the door of the lounge was pushed open. Su Li turned around and noticed that Jieran brought in a glass of water. She was about to say that the other party was thoughtful, but the other party spoke first.

"Xu Xuanran?"

Su Li nodded without hesitation, took the water handed to her by Jie Ran, and took a small sip.

"Xu Xuanran has worked very hard in recent years."

"She's working hard, but a little too hard." Su Li commented from her chair, "Perhaps everyone sees that Xu Xuanran has been incredibly hardworking since her debut, seamlessly transitioning from one film to the next with almost no rest. However, the pain and suffering she endures is unknown and untold."

"No one knows? Then how do you know?" Jieran pulled a chair over and sat down, then asked.

Su Li glanced at Jie Ran, raised an eyebrow and said with a smile: "Intuition."

"So-called woman's sixth sense?"

Su Li laughed it off and moved on.

Jieran was silent for a long time, then said calmly, "Rather than a sixth sense, perhaps it's more of empathy, right?"

"..."

"You've been plagued by controversy since your debut. No matter which crew you join, you're mocked overtly or covertly by a bunch of instigating marketing accounts. Remember 'Blood Like Frost' in 2018? We were halfway through filming and about to wrap up when the bombshells started going off, pinning all sorts of fabricated stories and stigmas on you. Every time you show up on set, there are always disruptive fans. The worst incident was when a rock hit you in the corner of your eye, nearly blinding you. To avoid further damage, the director discussed having you leave."

Following Jieran's reminder, Su Li's mind flashed back to the scenes of that year, which was shocking.

No matter how long it has been, there will always be regrets in her heart. "Blood Like Frost" was the first big production she took on after her debut. If she could have starred in this drama, she could have avoided many detours. Unfortunately, fate played tricks on her.

"It's been so long, but you still remember it so clearly." Su Li sighed slightly.

It’s 2018, which is five years ago.

"Of course I remember your story very clearly." Jieran raised his voice, then turned his head away for some reason.

"In 18, you were only... years old. Tsk, you've grown up so fast!" Su Li felt like a grown-up son. "The memories of the past are very vivid, and they're regrettable. But dwelling on the past isn't a good thing. Those regrets are in the past, and there's no point dwelling on them. People should be more open-minded, not clinging to the past, and not expecting too much from the future. They should take each step firmly and consider each step carefully."

"You seem to have changed." Jieran said with a faint smile.

"Just consider it as a compliment." Su Li said with a smile.

Perhaps the original Su Li was always dwelling on the regrets of the past, so she had too many concerns when making choices at every intersection. But the current Su Li is different. Being able to walk the current path well is already the most successful choice.

Don't be attached to the past, don't worry about the future, live in the present, and be free
