In the quick transmigration story, the most popular female supporting character is both delicate and

Because he can help her family get out of their current predicament.

“Yun Yao”.

Yun Yao put down what she was holding, turned her head to look at him, and asked, "Hmm?"

"My surname is Ji. Do you know which Ji it is?"

Yun Yao blinked...

Ji Ze'an rubbed his forehead, knowing she didn't recognize him. "Are you hungry? Shall we go eat?"

"Kind of."

Ji Ze'an's lips curled into a slight smile. "What would you like to eat?"

"Let's have hot pot."

"it is good."

According to the program's plan, the afternoon was supposed to be a game session, and the person with the highest score could choose to change the pairing that would be voted on by the audience the next day.

But given yesterday's situation...

The production team decided to cancel the game segment immediately.

Tomorrow, the pairing will be decided by audience vote as usual.

As long as the viewership ratings are maintained, that's fine.

We returned to the villa in the evening.

Only one light was on in the living room.

Yun Yao assumed they had all gone upstairs to rest.

She went to the kitchen to get a drink of water, while Ji Ze'an went upstairs to run a hot water dispenser.

She took her water glass and sat down on the sofa.

"Why are you back so late? What have you been doing?"

Lu Chaosi sat in the shadows, wearing a thin, neatly trimmed white shirt, his figure smooth and straight.

His eyebrows were sharp as blades, his straight nose was like a picture carved with a knife, and his dark eyes were cold and indifferent, without the slightest emotion.

"! Why aren't you asleep yet!" Yun Yao was so startled that she choked on her water, coughing and coughing.

Lu Chaosi patted her back gently to help her catch her breath, his voice low and slow, "Why are you so easily frightened?"

"..."

Why don't you reply to my messages?

"...Did you message me? My clothes don't have pockets, and my phone is with Ji Ze'an."

Lu Chaosi pressed her down and pushed her against the sofa cushions behind her, pinched her chin, and looked at her with a dark expression.

"Tsk, you're happy being with him?"

Yun Yao pushed his hand away, raised her chin slightly, and asked him, "Shouldn't you be happy when you go out to play?"

"Ha, I thought you really liked him."

His voice held a hint of laughter, a perfectly timed teasing tone that shrouded the night in an indescribable blush.

The way she said it...it was as if Lu Chaosi was a mistress she had found outside...

Yun Yao crossed her arms and glanced at him sideways, a hint of impatience showing on her pretty face. "...I'm going to take a shower, move aside."

"Are you sure you want to be this rude to me?" Lu Chaosi's voice was low and husky, as if it had been rubbed by sand, low but not harsh, and with a touch of gentleness.

He picked up the phone on the table, unlocked it, opened a chat window, and handed it to her, saying, "Take a look."

"What?" Yun Yao took the phone and saw the original owner's father thanking Lu Chaosi for helping him pay off his debts, and saying that he would send Yun Yao to him...

"..." Is this how people live these days, with no human rights at all? No matter what, she shouldn't have to sell herself to pay off her debts.

"I rejected your father's proposal, so what will you offer me in return?"

"...Then let's do as you said before, I'll sign my contract with your company and I'll help you make money."

"But I don't want your contract right now..."

"Then what do you want?"

Lu Chaosi smiled, his gaze seemingly carrying a deeper meaning.

"I'll tell you after the show is finished recording."

-

the next day.

Yun Yao was woken up by the ringing of the telephone.

The production team called her early in the morning to inform her that she had been removed from the show midway through and that she should pack her bags and go home immediately.

The reason is that she was exposed for tax evasion and for having a bald, middle-aged man as her sugar daddy.

The program team removed her from the show as a celebrity with a bad reputation.

Yun Yao: ...Was this scene in the original plot?

However, let's just consider the storyline completed ahead of schedule. Anyway, the show is already halfway through filming, and her current scandals and negative press are enough to fuel cyberbullying, which will then lead to her suffering from depression and committing suicide.

The production crew was worried that she would refuse to leave, so they came to shoo her away.

Su Jingli crossed his arms and leaned against the door, looking nonchalant. "I'm telling you, your production team shouldn't look so bad."

The production team didn't dare to offend Su Jingli, and bowed and scraped, saying, "I'm just following orders. The next guest is waiting to check in."

A mocking glint flashed in Su Jingli's half-closed eyes. "My breach of contract penalty will be deposited into the contract account. You can start preparing to contact the next guest."

“What? No… I know you can afford the penalty for breach of contract, but it’s not necessary. Yun Yao violated the artist code of conduct, but you’re fine.”

Su Jingli's dark eyes remained completely unmoved.

Only when he saw Yun Yao pushing her suitcase out did he slightly curl his lips, his eyes deep and serious.

"I'll get it for you."

Yun Yao pushed the luggage to him, "I've called a car, just put the luggage downstairs for me."

"Are you planning to go home later, or...?"

"Let's go to a hotel." If we go back to the original owner's house, they'll drain us dry.

“Given your situation, it’s not safe for you to go to a hotel. Paparazzi are waiting downstairs to take pictures of you.”

Yun Yao gained popularity through this dating reality show, but was suddenly exposed to scandals, and is now the subject of reports by major entertainment media.

"What should I do?"

Su Jingli made her put on his clothes, hiding her hair in a hat.

Disguise yourself as his assistant and get into the car with him.

“I have an apartment on the outer ring road, but I rarely stay there. You can stay there for now.”

Yun Yao calculated her bank account balance, "How much rent should I pay you each month?"

Su Jingli gave a nonchalant smirk, "You can stay here for now."

Meanwhile, at the filming location of the dating reality show, inside the villa.

Song Yanzhi greeted the new guest in a good mood and even introduced her to the other guests on the show.

In her room, Xia Qingrou was browsing through various negative stories and infamy about Yun Yao online while simultaneously paying the final payment to the paparazzi who had exposed Yun Yao's scandals.

Although Meng Huayan viewed these online rumors with indifference, she was secretly pleased.

If it weren't for Yun Yao, Jiang Feiran would definitely have focused his attention on her.

Jiang Feiran flew to another city yesterday afternoon to discuss future work details, and hasn't returned yet...

Ji Zean was busy with his academic paper until very late last night, and woke up quite late this morning as well.

When I woke up, Yun Yao's room was occupied by someone else. I couldn't get through to her on the phone.

In his office in the company building, backlit, the shadows accentuated his prominent brow bone, giving him an innate air of indifference and aloofness.

Xia Qingrou's little tricks were no match for him, but...

He was happy to lend a helping hand when Yun Yao was isolated and helpless.

So he let the rumors spread.

-

Su Jingli had his assistant deliver daily necessities and women's everyday clothes.

He then left with his assistant.

before going.

"Remember to lock your doors and windows at night. If you need anything, call me."

Yun Yao ate snacks while watching the show, and only glanced at Su Jingli when the commercials started, saying, "Okay."

"Also," Su Jingli thought of something..., "Don't go online for a while, and don't look at anything online."

Yun Yao nodded perfunctorily, "Okay."

Seeing her carefree attitude, Su Jingli figured she probably wouldn't take online comments to heart, so he didn't say anything more.
