Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 197 - 197 197 Feeling Something is Off

?Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Feeling Something is Off Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Feeling Something is Off Luo Ning naturally trusted Lu Xun.

She shrugged, “You take care of it, after all, she’s your troublesome admirer.”

Lu Xun again clarified, “I’m really not familiar with her.”

Luo Ning nodded, “I can tell.”

She thought for a moment and said, “If she comes looking for trouble again, I might have to step in.”

She wasn’t a pushover that anyone could just squeeze.

When the woman was led away by the bodyguards, the look she gave her was full of hatred, and Luo Ning felt that the other party probably wouldn’t just let it go.

At the same time, she also felt helpless, why do some women always like to pick on other women, is it because they think women are easier to bully?

Although that Ji Jiarong had quite a background, Luo Ning had plenty of ways to deal with her if necessary.

Lu Xun chuckled, “Of course.”

“Do whatever you want.”

If something happened, he would still be there to back her up.

Luo Ning suddenly remembered something, “What’s the name of that woman’s brother just now?”

Lu Xun replied, “She has two older brothers, the eldest is Ji Jiachen, and the second is Ji Jiayi.”

Luo Ning wanted to hold her forehead; she had guessed randomly, and there really was a Ji Jiayi.

In the book, he was the man Bo Xiangxiang had her eyes on.

Before she jumped off the building, Bo Xiangxiang was trying to seduce Ji Jiayi.

But the book had an unfinished ending, so she didn’t know whether the two of them ended up together.

However, based on the author’s usual style, given Ji Jiayi’s significant background, he was most likely going to become one of the members in the playboy’s harem, and at a level befitting the main character, no less.

She had read the book before; her impression of Ji Jiayi was that he was a philanderer.

This man had started a company, and because he was part of the Imperial Capital’s Crown Prince Party, coupled with his good looks and capable methods, he basically got women with just a hook of his finger.

Then he would change women as if they were clothes, and not a single woman he dumped seemed to bear any resentment.

Such a philandering man, if he had a change of heart and entered Bo Xiangxiang’s harem, dedicating himself to her, that would be quite the plot twist.

Lu Xun, seeing her zoning out, couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter?”

Luo Ning returned to her senses, “I was wondering if Ji Jiarong would have her brother make a move.”

Lu Xun pondered and said, “Ji Jiachen is a rather upright person; since it’s Ji Jiarong’s fault this time, he definitely won’t indulge her or make a move against you.”

“But Ji Jiayi is someone who’s ruthless with his methods and acts impulsively, so be careful around him.”

He naturally wouldn’t let anyone hurt Luo Ning either.

Luo Ning nodded, “Okay, I got it.”

After chatting for a while, they each retired to their rooms to rest.

About an hour later, Ji Jiayi, who was overseas, opened an email and reviewed the investigative report on Luo Ning.

The first things to appear were a few photos.

He stroked his chin as he looked over the photos, “So pretty, no wonder Lu Xun, the cold and detached man, would be moved.”

He continued reading the materials.

After finishing, he lit a cigarette, his eyes filled with immense interest, and he muttered to himself, “Very well, a challenge, that’s what I like!”

The next day, the TV crew took the guests up to National Treasure Mountain again.

Today, they were visiting the last National Treasure institute, “Tea Academy.”

In both groups, except for Lu Xun and Luo Ning, no one understood the tea ceremony.

So the honorable task fell on them once again.

After passing the tests of brewing, appreciating, smelling, and drinking tea, Lu Xun and Luo Ning successfully opened the great doors of the “Tea Academy.”

After the visit and the live broadcast, the mission of visiting the various institutes of the National Treasure was complete.

After returning to National Treasure Town, the director smiled and said, “Everyone has worked hard these past few days. Today’s live broadcast from National Treasure Mountain is coming to a close.”

“I originally thought that if you could unlock one or two layers of the National Treasure Institute, that would be pretty impressive. I never expected you to unlock them all.”

Needless to say, the viewership rating exploded once again, not only trending, but also firmly occupying the throne of the number one variety show viewership nationwide.

This made him very happy, and he even received praise from the head of the network.

In fact, everyone present hadn’t expected this result.

Wei Yao said with a smile, “It’s mainly because Little Ningning and Mr. Lu were so amazing, otherwise, we probably would have only unlocked one or two layers.”

These two were so formidable that the rest no longer harbored any thoughts of comparison.

The others strongly agreed, “Yes, yes, we really have Mr. Lu and Teacher Luo to thank this time.”

Without the two of them, they would have probably returned in disappointment.

Now that they had unveiled the layers of the National Treasure Institute, not only was their viewership stable, but their popularity also skyrocketed.

Therefore, except for a few individuals, everyone felt grateful to them.

Luo Ning and Lu Xun tacitly smiled at everyone.

After the live broadcast ended, everyone spent the afternoon wandering around National Treasure Town and the nearby areas, buying many handicrafts, and then flew back the next day.

This was also the last episode of the live variety show, and the public performance was also reaching its final moments, so the director told everyone to rest for three days before resuming rehearsals.

Luo Ning went straight home, ate noodles cooked by her mom, and then took a nap.

After waking up, she received a call from Wu Jianfeng.

“Master Luo, I’ve found three deserted mountains for you. When do you have the time to come and take a look?”

Luo Ning hadn’t expected him to act so quickly and said with a laugh, “I’m free tomorrow and the day after, it all depends on President Wu’s schedule.”

Wu Jianfeng had already decided, “Then how about tomorrow morning?”

“Sure, thank you for the trouble.”

“Master Luo, you’re too polite. I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow morning.”

“Alright.”

After setting the time, the next morning Luo Ning and Jiang Xinxin got into Wu Jianfeng’s car.

Luo Xi made some friends and went out to take photos, so they didn’t call him.

Wu Jianfeng patiently took the two of them to see the three mountains in turn.

Luo Ning and Jiang Xinxin both liked one that had a large tract of mountain land below it, which was also available for lease.

Wu Jianfeng thought this was the mountain the two would be most likely to be interested in.

He said with a smile, “This mountain used to be leased by a friend of mine, who is now looking to sublet it. If you’re interested, you can talk to him about the details.”

Luo Ning nodded, “No problem.”

So Wu Jianfeng called his friend.

Soon after, he hung up and said to Luo Ning, “My friend is going to a social event this afternoon and I received an invitation too. How about I take you with me so we can find time to talk? He has the same idea.”

Luo Ning asked in return, “Would it be convenient for you to take us?”

Wu Jianfeng said with a smile, “It’s convenient, plus I have several friends who, after hearing about you, all want your help to check out their places.”

“If Master Luo doesn’t have time, I can just introduce you to them first.”

He knew Luo Ning did Feng Shui, so he was thinking of getting some business for her.

Of course, his several friends did indeed want to meet Luo Ning.

Luo Ning had previously spent most of her savings to buy jade rough stone and was soon going to an auction; she was in need of money.

Hearing Wu Jianfeng say this, she naturally wouldn’t refuse, “Okay.”

They had lunch together, and afterward, Wu Jianfeng took the two women to the social event.

Upon entering, Luo Ning and Jiang Xinxin greeted Wu Jianfeng and found a corner to sit down.

There were quite a few people at the social event, and to Luo Ning’s surprise, Shi Ji was also there.

Looking at Shi Ji, dressed in a white suit and with an entirely different demeanor from before, Luo Ning felt something was off.
