Chapter 108 - 108 108 Envy Wont Get You There
?Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Envy Won’t Get You There Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Envy Won’t Get You There After returning home, Luo Ning drew a Luck Talisman and, after taking a photo, posted it on Weibo.
@LuoNingV: Share this Luck Talisman and within a week, good luck will follow you continuously, as long as you put in sincere effort and don’t involve illegal or immoral activities, you will achieve what you wish for.
This offer is only valid for the first five thousand shares! (PS: Does not include winning the lottery or sudden stock market gains)
The post had barely been online for a few seconds before people began to share it.
[Ah, Ningbao has released a luck charm, and I managed to snag one this time.]
[Awesome, I managed to grab one this time, too.]
[I’ve been feeling so unlucky lately, and just then Ningbao shared a Luck Talisman, it’s like it was tailored just for me, I grabbed one, xoxo!]
[I’ve been looking forward to Ningbao’s talismans every day, it wasn’t in vain that I’ve been squatting in front of Weibo all day today.]
[Ningbao really spoils her fans, she said at the airport she would release a Luck Talisman, and indeed she did tonight, love you.]
Following that, some people posted photos from the airport yesterday, talking about how approachable and kind Luo Ning was to them, the fans who came to pick her up, and how she spoils them incredibly.
The Ning Fans were both touched and happy, feeling respected and liked by their idol was especially wonderful, and they certainly hadn’t picked the wrong person to follow.
[My wife is truly the best, love you forever!]
[How can Ningbao be so great, mommy loves you so much!]
[Ningbao, daddy loves you too!]
Female fans: “…” Here come the stinky men showing off their presence again.
In less than three minutes, all five thousand Luck Talismans were shared out.
Those who were a step too late wanted to cry.
[Sob, I was just one step late, pounding the ground.]
[I actually missed Ningbao’s Luck Talisman again, bursting into tears.]
[Do you guys need to be that fast with your hands, I was just a few seconds slow and it was gone.]
[I’m resolutely changing my internet provider tomorrow, this slow net speed cost me a few seconds, and my Luck Talisman was snatched away by someone else.]
[It was a Luck Talisman, I clearly needed it so much, yet I had to watch as I missed out on it, crying myself to a stupor in the bathroom.]
Those who didn’t manage to get a talisman were full of regret and decided to keep a closer watch on Luo Ning’s Weibo in the future to avoid missing out again.
Among the fans who had come to pick her up, the majority had managed to snag one thanks to squatting, but a few missed out for various reasons.
So they tried sending Luo Ning private messages, just leaving a ‘1’.
Luo Ning told them to share the Luck Talisman, reassuring them privately that it would be effective, which made the fans ecstatic.
When the members of the fan support group found out about this, they liked Luo Ning even more.
After all, who doesn’t like an idol who spoils their fans.
Among the five thousand people who shared this Weibo post, just over half were Ning Fans, while a third were just joining in the fun to try it out.
There were also some younger followers from the upper echelons who shared it, wanting to see if it really worked.
The next day, the Liu Family honored their agreement and delivered the medicinal herbs Luo Ning needed to her apartment.
Luo Ning began to concoct the Health Care Pills.
Of the Five Skills of Xuanxue: Mountain, Medical, Divination, Fate, Divination, she was well-versed in all, so naturally, she knew how to treat illnesses, preserve health, and concoct Pills.
Because of Xiang Bin’s incident, Luo Ning felt the need to make more useful Pills.
She had already considered finding a reliable herbal medicine supplier, and now that she had built a relationship with Liu Hongxue and her son, it was a good opportunity to collaborate.
That same day, Luo Ning finished making the Health Care Pills and asked Mr. Ji to send someone over to pick them up and deliver them to Xiang Bin.
Xiang Bin received a bottle of Health Care Pills and, upon opening the cap, smelled a faint fragrance; then he didn’t hesitate to pour one out and take it.
The day before, after wearing Luo Ning’s talisman, he indeed hadn’t had that nightmare again.
For a month, he hadn’t slept peacefully and comfortably like he did the previous night, and he didn’t feel as weak upon waking up, so his trust in Luo Ning deepened even more.
Then today, his mother also received some news about what the Xiang Family had been up to recently.
She discovered that his Grandma frequently visited a witch, dabbling in who knows what kinds of mumbo-jumbo.
The detective found that over a month ago, his Grandma and his elder uncle followed the witch on an outing, then brought back a silver bracelet.
Xiang Jun had also been visiting home more often since a month ago.
In his memory, Xiang Jun rarely came home due to his current elder aunt, so all this was unusual.
It also meant that everything Luo Ning said hit the mark: those people were scheming behind his back, solely to harm him.
Liu Hongxue didn’t stop her son from taking the medicine; she was now convinced that Luo Ning really had some skills; otherwise, how could she have instantly revealed such a dark secret?
After reviewing the information and confirming that her son hadn’t had the nightmare again the night before, she sent someone to both the Xiang Family home and Xiang Jun’s house to look for the Ghost Marriage Contract.
Another day passed, and Luo Ning went to the television show building to instruct the contestants in composing and choreography, and later she would also join them in practice.
For this performance, the mystery guests would also lend their support, organized according to the teams they had on the Deserted Island.
This meant Luo Ning and Lu Xun would collaborate to support eight contestants together.
Luo Ning arrived at the building in the morning and accompanied the contestants in composing, without intervening just like the last time, letting them express themselves freely.
She only offered pointers when Shan Zhen and a few others ran into problems with their compositions.
Lu Xun had just returned from abroad that morning but hurried to join them for practice in the afternoon.
He, like Luo Ning, pointed out problems or offered suggestions when necessary, but otherwise let the contestants do their own thing.
Ji Xinghang and Su Qinglan were in one team, and the two had no conflicts, working together quite well.
The team of Chai Jing and Wei Yao was also progressing smoothly.
Bo Xiangxiang’s team, due to Tong Jia’s injury, had the show crew rearrange for a new mystery guest to take over.
The identity of this guest wasn’t disclosed in the live broadcast, and since the live feed was shut down during training, no one knew who had replaced Tong Jia.
Not just the audience, but even the other celebrity guests were kept in the dark, with only Bo Xiangxiang and the eight contestants aware, since they had to rehearse together.
This was the director’s way of teasing the audience, and as expected, the online community was actively engaging in speculation.
The ratings for the official Weibo account of the variety show skyrocketed.
The equally curious celebrity guests and contestants couldn’t help but complain in private that the director was up to his old tricks again.
Of course, their curiosity was piqued, and they were even more eager to find out who the new guest was.
On the third afternoon of rehearsals, Luo Ning received a phone call from Liu Hongxue.
She had collected all the stuff, and Luo Ning promised to come over that evening.
After the rehearsal ended, she packed up her belongings and was ready to leave.
Lu approached her with a smile, “Together?”
Luo Ning felt he had something to say and nodded, “Sure!”
The two of them went to the underground parking lot together.
Many guests and contestants witnessed this scene, internally exclaiming that it’s no wonder Luo Ning and Lu were getting along so well.
But others couldn’t help but envy; no matter how approachable and refined Lu appeared, he was aloof and cold towards everyone except Luo Ning.
Lu truly was as elusive as they say in the industry, let alone the prospect of making friends with him.
