The director was about to release the video footage of the three socialites' rooms.

Shen Qianyu raised her objection again, "Today is Su Jinli's forte again. Director, your production team's behavior makes people suspicious that there is something fishy going on with this show."

Lan Biying lost the desire to compete and only wanted to finish the live broadcast, because her family could no longer afford the high penalty for breach of contract.

The director responded to Shen Qianyu, "Ms. Shen, the production team believes that socialites and antiques have an inseparable relationship, so they chose this theme. How is that a behind-the-scenes manipulation?"

Barrage:

[Rich people all collect antiques; the show's premise is correct.]

[Are antiques something only wealthy older men collect?]

What do socialites do? Eat, drink, have fun, travel, and take photos? That's too superficial. I believe socialites and antiques are related.

The director continued, "Since Ms. Shen Qianyu has abstained, we will now look at the situation in the other three people's rooms. Director, please replay it on the public screen."

Shen Qianyu lowered her head and bit her lip. The weekend had just begun, and things had already gone badly so early in the morning. She would have to eat lettuce leaves again today.

The live stream replay clearly showed that Su Jinli's room had the most antiques, followed by Jiang Yirou's, while the contents of Lan Biying's room were shown, making her cheeks burn with embarrassment.

"Bi Ying, what's wrong with your room? It looks so shabby." Shen Qianyu stared at the TV screen, secretly gloating.

Shen Qianyu's room wasn't photographed, at least preserving its mystery. Lan Biying's room, however, was photographed looking like a humble abode, which was even more embarrassing.

“I’ve been moving recently, and all my things have been moved to Haicheng Province.” Lan Biying lied calmly. “My dad bought a manor there. The air in Beijing is dry, and it’s the center of business, politics, and culture. It’s crowded and noisy. My dad wants to retire in Haicheng. The air there is humid and quiet.”

Barrage:

That's ridiculous. Her room was probably already quite shabby.

[Lili's room at Tanyuan Villa remains unchanged. She doesn't need to bring any clothes when she moves to Song Manor, as both wardrobes are full.]

Why would rich people need to move? Shouldn't they just throw away what needs to be thrown away and buy new things every time they move to a new place?

Haven't you heard? The Blue Cult brainwashes people, harming many female followers, and many have been cheated out of money and sexually exploited.

"Oh..." Shen Qianyu's drawn-out voice held a hidden meaning.

After watching the replay, the director announced the room and food resource allocation for the day: Su Jinli will stay in the large suite with good ventilation and will have the right to use the refrigerator; Jiang Yirou will stay in the second largest room, which also has good lighting, and will be able to share the food in the refrigerator with Su Jinli.

Shen Qianyu and Lan Biying wished they could cover their ears and not listen anymore. Every episode, Su Jinli and Lan Biying had the upper hand, with no suspense at all.

“Boring…” Shen Qianyu crossed her arms and muttered.

When viewers in the live stream heard this, the chat started criticizing her again.

[These socialite shows are all about comparing net worth, so what's there to complain about?]

[They have a chance in other areas too, but what can they do if they really can't beat Su Jinli?]

The four people checked into their room and began unpacking their luggage.

During this time, Lan Biying's mind was in a daze, and she was absent-minded. She had lost interest in the live broadcast and was constantly worried about the company's situation.

Recently, Lantian Group was required to pay a huge tax penalty, enough to bankrupt the group. If the company goes bankrupt, what will become of them?

Little did they know, many people in the live stream chat had already started stirring up trouble and discussing news about the Lantian Group.

[How can Lan Biying still participate in live broadcasts? Her parents and she are all organizers of a cult, and they have swindled a lot of money from ordinary people.]

I've also heard that Lan Biying is a master at brainwashing believers. Where do you think their family's money came from?

After packing her things, Shen Qianyu hurriedly went to Lan Biying's room.

"Bi Ying, I heard that Lantian Group is having some problems. Did you move or sell your things?"

Shen Qianyu's question was undoubtedly rubbing salt into someone's wounds. Lan Biying cursed her several times in her heart before replying, "Didn't I just make it very clear? My dad bought a manor in Haicheng."

Shen Qianyu walked into Lan Biying's room. "I knew it! The rumors on the internet must be false... Hey? Then why did you take a taxi this morning? Did you sell the car?"

"..." Lan Biying was so angry that she didn't want to speak.

The lunch scene was the same as last week: Su Jinli and Jiang Yirou had a big meal, while the other two ate a low-fat meal in their respective rooms.

Around 1 p.m., the socialite support segment began.

Su Jinli was the last to come downstairs. She saw Jiang Yirou and the other two, along with the crew, all gathered in a circle in the middle of the living room.

Having just woken up, Su Jinli's eyes were not fully open when Jiang Yirou turned around and called out, "Lili, come here quickly and look at these antiques."

Su Jinli walked over to take a look and saw four antique porcelain pieces neatly arranged on a rectangular table in the middle of the living room.

The four antique porcelain pieces vary in color and shape; some are brightly colored, some are somber, some are shaped like vases, and some resemble a large soup bowl.

Once everyone was present, the director announced the rules for today's assistance segment: "Each of you socialites must have had your share of encounters with antiques in your daily lives. Today, the socialites will assist us in an 'antique identification' activity. Each group will have four antiques, only one of which is genuine. Please observe carefully, and you may even touch them. There is no time limit..."

"The socialite who selects an authentic item can receive a bonus of 100,000 yuan in this round."

The four people's eyes fell on the four porcelain pieces on the table.

Shen Qianyu knew nothing about antiques. Her grandfather had collected many antiques, but the old man favored his cousins ​​and didn't teach Shen Qianyu any basic knowledge about distinguishing genuine antiques from fakes.

Lan Biying did learn a little bit from Lao Lan, but it was only superficial; she was far from being able to judge the truth from falsehood.

Jiang Yirou herself had no interest in antiques, but her five older brothers taught her a lot of basic knowledge about antique identification from a young age in order to cultivate her refinement, so she knew some of it.

"Alright, let's begin. Please start identifying the antiques. Once you've identified them, please enter their codes directly into the transponder."

Following the director's voice, the female director handed each of the four people a small input transponder.

Shen Qianyu originally wanted to see which one Su Jinli chose so she could follow suit, but now everyone's answer is entered into the responder, leaving no chance for copying.

All four of them put on white gloves and began to distinguish the authenticity of the antiques.

Even though Shen Qianyu and Lan Biying didn't understand, they couldn't just give up at this time and pretend to know what they were talking about.

Su Jinli first picked up the vase-shaped porcelain piece to examine it. Shen Qianyu glanced at the porcelain piece, then looked up at Su Jinli's expression.

Since the transponder numbers are not visible, we can only judge by Su Jinli's reactions and follow her to determine whether it is true or false.

Su Jinli glanced at the vase a few times before putting it down, her eyes filled with disdain. Shen Qianyu mentally rejected the vase.
