Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Knowing Qiao Li's malicious intentions, Qi Jing dared not let his guard down. The other party came from an unknown civilization, and the culture of that world was definitely different from this one. Judging from his novels, it was clear he had plagiarized others. Moreover, he seemed to have exceptionally good luck; his novels were only a few pages long, yet he already had a large following, including a young lady from a wealthy family. Who knew that if he wasn't careful, he might climb up to someone else and rise to power, making him a difficult opponent.

Because it involved his and his baby's future happiness, Qi Jing was extremely careful. He didn't inform Sha Tianbao about this matter, but instead called his father and directly asked to inherit the family business.

Qi Jing's father had long wanted to retire and hand over the huge company to his son, but his son loved acting and insisted on not taking over the company until he was 30. This had worried Qi's father so much that his hair had turned white. Now that he heard his son was willing to take over the company, how could he not agree?

Both father and son hung up the phone with considerable satisfaction. For Qi's father, successfully stepping down was better than anything else. For Qi Jing, only by accepting his father's position as head of the family could he mobilize the Qi family's power. Although using the power of a top family that had been entrenched in China for a century to deal with a minor celebrity who was still a nobody seemed like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, Qi Jing didn't care. What he wanted was this kind of crushing defeat, to leave Qiao Li with no chance of recovery.

Poor Qiao Li has no idea what he is about to encounter. Because of the video leaked by the nurse, he can no longer stay in the hospital. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured in the car accident. After his assistant completed the discharge procedures, he went home.

Qiao Li's home was a cramped rented room, furnished only with a bed, a small cabinet, and a table. Qiao Li was a very vain person. He preferred to live in a shabby rented room himself, but when filming, he would hire two assistants and wear designer clothes. With this lifestyle, his acting salary was simply not enough to make ends meet. Apart from his public persona, he always lived a very frugal life in private.

Although Qiao Li was also just a homebody in another world, his life was still better than Qiao Li's in this world. He couldn't stand the strange smell in the rented room. He stood in front of the door and hesitated for a while. Finally, he made up his mind, took out his phone worth several thousand yuan, and made a call to his fan girl.

"Yuanyuan, it's me."

"Well, my lease on that apartment has expired, and I have nowhere to stay. Yuanyuan, do you have a place to stay?"

"You also own a villa in the city center? Would it be convenient for me to stay there for a few days?"

"Alright, alright, then see you at Jinghua Garden."

The girl on the other end of the phone was the same rich girl who arranged for Qiao Li to enter "Come Play". She had already been completely charmed by Qiao Li and her heart had fallen for him. Now that she saw that her sweetheart had nowhere to stay, she happily offered up her villa.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Li smiled smugly, quite satisfied with her methods.

The moment Qiao Li met the girl named Yuan Yuan, the people Qi Jing had just sent to monitor Qiao Li told Qi Jing about it.

"Who do you think is the person opposite Qiao Li?"

"Yes, Miss Yuan Yuan." The person opposite hesitated for a moment, clearly recognizing her.

Qi Jing was genuinely surprised this time. He was mentally prepared, knowing that he might know the young lady who had helped Qiao Li, but he never expected it to be this person.

"Find someone to check Qi Yuan's recent movements."

"Yes!"

This so-called Miss Yuan Yuan's real name is Qi Yuan, the same surname as Qi Jing. She is also a daughter of a wealthy family and naturally has a connection with Qi Jing.

Qi Yuan is Qi Jing's cousin. She took her mother's surname. Her father married into the Qi family. The family business was neither big nor small, but their family was considered a branch of the Qi family. Relying on the Qi family's name, many people would give them face, and they lived a pretty comfortable life.

Qi Jing harbored some dislike for his cousin Qi Yuan, because she had been raised to be arrogant and domineering since childhood. Relying on her status as a member of the Qi family, she caused trouble everywhere and offended many people. If it weren't for the protection of the main branch of the family, their branch would have been destroyed long ago.

If Qi Jing is certain that his cousin is truly helping his enemy, he will not show any mercy.

Qi Yuan ultimately disappointed Qi Jing. Sha Tianbao told Qi Jing that the young lady in the story was indeed Qi Yuan.

Qi Jing didn't touch the two of them for the time being. This time, his status with the two of them was already different. The reason why Qiao Li was able to defeat Qi Jing last time was that he was dealing with Qi Jing, who was just a movie star, not the current Qi Jing, who is also a movie star and the head of the Qi family.

Becoming the head of the family meant having a lot of busy work every day. Qi Jing didn't pick any of the scripts that Sha Tianbao sent over. The only one he accepted was the invitation from the "Come Play" film crew because he wanted to go to the set to observe Qiao Li.

Yu Liu watched on her phone as Qi Jing meticulously arranged everything, while she couldn't help at all. She was initially a little disappointed, but after Qi Jing's reassurance, she eventually settled down and became a lazy bum.

"Wow, I got up really early today." Yu Liu sat on her small bed, rubbing her eyes and yawning widely.

Qi Jing walked around the room shirtless. "That's how it is when filming a show. The production team notified us a long time ago that they would come and film a segment about my home and a video of me packing my luggage. If it looks good, they will cut it into the show or play it as a bonus feature to attract fans."

“So you have to get up early to pack,” Qi Jing said, pulling out his suitcase. “It’s a bit better for a seasoned actor like me, but some young heartthrobs or actresses get up even earlier. They have a bunch of makeup artists waiting at home to do their makeup. After the makeup is done, the makeup artists leave, and then they start buying trending topics after the show airs, saying that so-and-so’s bare face is particularly beautiful. That’s how this industry is.”

“So,” Qi Jing walked back and tapped his phone screen, “basically everyone in this circle wears a mask, and their hearts are all black. After I take you out, you can’t trust anyone but me, understand, baby?”

Yu Liu: "...I'm not going to show up in front of them."

Seeing that Qi Jing was still not very happy, Yu Liu stretched out her hands as if to hug Qi Jing through the screen, "Besides, I still have you to protect me!"

Yu Liu felt a little embarrassed after saying this, but she didn't put her hand down.

"Yes, and me."

Qi Jing's large hand touched hers through the screen, a touched smile on his face. The light shone from behind him, casting a warm glow on him and warming Yu Liu's heart. It was so wonderful to have met such a person who was the object of her desire.
