Dressed as a top-notch stand-in for the president
Chapter 80 080
The car with flashing red and blue lights gradually moved away, Ji Yu was still sitting on the edge of the steps, with a kind of relaxed expression inside, she seemed to be in a good mood.
Actually.
Corgi leaned over to pick up the plastic garbage in her hand, but she didn't respond, her fingertips trembled slightly with that movement, and when she came back to her senses, she stared at her empty palm in a daze.
After Corgi helped her throw away the trash, she noticed other people coming nearby. In order to avoid being chased and asked how this dog appeared, it didn't cause any trouble for Ji Yu, so it went to a corner, disappeared again, and returned to Ji Yu in the body.
It said: "Yuyu...Actually, Chu Nanxing...it won't affect her much."
The system was a bit regretful when it said this, because Ji Yu’s life was so badly harmed by Chu Nanxing, and she even died once. However, when she died, Chu Nanxing was only 13 years old, and it was difficult to judge whether she was directly Killing people, even if Ji Yu used another part of his power to return, had a small impact on this world, causing Chu Nanxing to be asked to investigate at this time, but...
Afterwards, nothing would happen to Chu Nanxing, even if it wasn’t for the video it released, even if Ji Yu found many witnesses from back then, and then accused Chu Nanxing of refusing to save her, there would be no way to do anything to Chu Nanxing from a legal point of view. What judgment is made.
After all, the impact that the system can have on this world is very small. Just like Chu Nanxing, who was able to arrange the script before, he didn’t know how many times he wanted to make Ji Yu disappear, but... still had to write a logical and complete chain, Only then can it affect Ji Yu himself.
Compared to Chu Nanxing's method of directly obliterating a person's existence——
After Ji Yu understood its role in this aspect, the difficulty of writing content was relatively low. The first one was to spread the video clips edited by the system on the Internet. With the help of black technology like the system, the difficulty was not very high. The second one is that the relevant parties asked Chu Nanxing to cooperate with the investigation in consideration of the influence of public opinion. In fact, if there is no systematic effect, Chu Nanxing would not even have the possibility of being invited away...
However, Ji Yu used the system to exert a little influence, which contributed to the current situation.
But that's it.
The system felt a little bit sorry for Ji Yu, and it brought out that sadness when it spoke, but after listening to it, when Ji Yu went to the direction of the broadcast studio, his voice was full of laughter.
"I know," she said, "The Chu family is very powerful. Chu Nanxing was only temporarily brought in for investigation this time, but the impact on public opinion caused by this is very exaggerated. The media will definitely take pictures of her going in and out of the police station, and then make up a sensational story. Coupled with the fact that the video is now widely circulated, if no one helps her reverse the public opinion, her reputation will already be rotten."
"And...she can't find out who is behind the scenes, no matter how angry she is, she can only sue the officials for affecting her reputation and causing her a certain reputation loss."
Ji Yu found her position in the team, and when she sat down on the high chair, her demeanor returned to her usual gentleness, but her expression was slightly different. If you look carefully, you can find that her beautiful pair of peach blossoms The fundus of the eyes is empty, as if everything is reflected in it, and it seems that there is nothing.
After pausing for a while, she said to the system again: "Even if you sign with a powerful PR company, it doesn't matter if you can use youthful ignorance and other methods to re-wash the whitewashing—"
"Today I just said hello to her briefly."
"The days are long."
Ji Yu said this to the system in a relaxed tone, as if she didn't feel at all what a terrifying way to greet Chu Nanxing when she came back in this way after seven years.
The system listened to her saying scary things in such a calm tone, somehow, not only did she not feel scared, but instead felt uncomfortable, and always felt that she seemed to have done something wrong to force Ji Yu to be such a good and kind person. One has to become this kind of ruthless type in order to live simply in this world.
It was silent for a long time, and asked Ji Yu: "Yuyu, are you happy now? Letting Chu Nanxing eat his own fruit, did it make you feel better?"
Ji Yu quietly watched the broadcast TV in front of her, and looked at those beautiful and energetic faces on the stage. After a while, when the system thought she would not answer, Ji Yu said softly:
"Where did this go..."
There is still a long way to go before Chu Nanxing reaps the fruit of his own accord.
……
Wang Luoshui was dealing with Chu Nanxing's affairs in the background. She carefully studied the negative impact of Chu Nanxing's current hot search with the staff, and considered whether to persuade him to withdraw from the competition.
Just at that moment, Yanxi called. Wang Luoshui walked away from the meeting according to his usual habit. As soon as he picked it up, he heard Yanxi say quickly:
"I have already communicated with Uncle Chu, the website has deleted all the videos, including the search records, and I have bought a lot of influential big v to explain this matter, Nan Xing was under fourteen years old at the time In the face of relatives falling into the water, it is impossible to carry out effective rescue, which is also human nature..."
She said a lot in one breath, and finally added: "I plan to let her sign with my Xiaoxi Entertainment, and I will also give her the best resource treatment. I know that your program team is now discussing whether to let her retire. I A sponsorship fee can be added—”
"Luoshui, you can wait for tonight's public opinion before seriously considering this matter."
Wang Luoshui waited patiently for her to finish speaking, with no expression on her face, which was very strange. When she heard Yanxi speak in the past, she could not help but soften her heart, wanting to do things according to the other party's will, and sometimes even came to her senses , will not understand why I am so dizzy.
But this time, it was amazing. She felt that her mind was always calm, and even her rationality was on the line. After listening to it, she didn't respond with a good temper.
"I know what you mean, but today is a very important stage performance, and she is missing now—"
"Many teachers here, including pds and mentors, have their schedules arranged. If she doesn't come on stage, she won't be able to vote for her on the spot, and there's no way to continue the ranking. I re-coordinating the cost of the stage and performance for her too high..."
"Axi, I know she didn't break the law, but an artist still has to pay attention to public influence. Even if you whitewash her now, the public has already preconceived that she is a cold-blooded and ruthless person from the video. The show is on the cusp. I don't have that much time to wait for you."
"With her ability and the capital of Xiaoxi Entertainment, even if she misses this stage, if she really likes it, she still has many ways to obtain resources and enter this circle, but my "Dream Chasing 100" is already off the string The arrow, even if I want to pull it to stop now, it is already very difficult."
This is what it means to reject from the side.
Yan Xi has been rejected by her too much recently, and couldn't help being annoyed, and even scolded her and Meng Rendong together, and said after being angry for a while:
"Yes! She will have many opportunities to return to this circle in the future, but she is only 20 years old now, and there will be a few such suitable 20-year-olds in her life!"
"The life of a girl group is so short, and you watched her walk all the way, how can you bear to see her stop here?"
Wang Luoshui was silent for a long time this time.
She asked softly: "Axi, I remember that the first person you met was Ayu, and you were the one who met her first at the beginning, and she was also her first friend, so you don't even have nicknames. It's so like..."
"You have been arguing for Nanxing, but for so many years, every time Liandong mentioned Ayu, did you say a word of pity for her?"
Yan Xi: "...Are you talking about my white-eyed wolf? So you were brainwashed by Meng Rendong?"
Wang Luoshui sighed.
She thought again, why hasn't she been able to reverse Yanxi's views for so many years?
In the end, she could only say: "I've already discussed this matter with the relevant group. I'm sorry, Mr. Yan."
……
after an hour.
When Chu Nanxing returned to Chu’s house, the magnificent villa was brightly lit at night. She sat on the sofa in the living room, but she did not see her mother, so she guessed that she saw the video on the Internet today and was disappointed with herself. So she hid and prayed for her sister who "should have died".
Noticing her gaze, Chu Huaide handed his bag to the assistant, tugged on his tie, walked in with a bad expression and said:
"Your mother was not in good health just now, and she is staying in the hospital now. Go and see her tomorrow."
He spoke in an orderly tone.
Chu Nanxing immediately replied: "She is not in good health because she misses her sister too much. It has nothing to do with me."
Chu Huaide was used to grabbing the things at hand, and wanted to throw them away, but when he remembered his wife's nagging and exhortations in the past few years, telling him not to be so aggressive with the children, he reluctantly held back, took a deep breath strangely, Changed the subject.
"Think about it for yourself, who has offended someone recently, and where did this kind of video come from? You just stay at home these few days and don't go anywhere, so as not to cause trouble for me again when you go out."
Chu Nanxing sneered, but did not answer.
She was afraid that she would scare Chu Huaide to death if she told the answer. After sitting on the sofa for a while, she thought of taking revenge on the culprit, so she got up without saying a word, and was about to go out.
"Where are you going? Didn't you hear what I just said?"
Chu Huaide's voice came from the side of the stairs, carrying his usual majesty.
Chu Nanxing replied blankly: "I'm still recording the show, Dad, if there's nothing else, I have to go back to the show group."
"Recording a program?" Chu Huaide scoffed at this statement.
He said: "If you mean continuing to imitate those opera actors on TV, singing and dancing to please the audience, and putting down your body to ask people to give you a little support and rewards-I advise you to give up, it seems that they have decided to expel is you."
"Nan Xing, you haven't made progress in recent years. Even in this line of work, you can perform so poorly that it makes me laugh. I remember when I went to visit your class with your mother, you never won the first place. .”
He turned and went upstairs, stepping very heavily.
Leaving Chu Nanxing in place, his face was so pale that he was almost ashamed.
She had done so much preparation for today's stage, but in the end, she didn't even have the chance to compete with Ji Yu on the same stage. Ji Yu really did a great job.
She hated so much that the smell of blood came out of her mouth. She stood in the empty living room for a long time, until her body was cold, and then she remembered one thing. She went to find a computer, tried her best to ignore the dazzling words on the Internet, and found out what she was looking for. people.
Simply get in touch with the other party, and after adding friends, Chu Nanxing asked: "I want to place an order."
"Okay! Inquire about the price according to 1, find someone in China according to Article 2, and charge a service fee abroad... Please tell me."
Chu Nanxing: "I want you to help me find a dog."
The other party: "...emmm, what kind of pet is it? When did you lose it?"
Chu Nanxing: "It's very simple. I want the corgi dog that is with Ji Yu. Go and inquire. The price is whatever you want. I want that dog."
Whether it was then or now, Chu Nanxing always felt that the dog was really not simple.
Opposite: "...Okay, wait a minute, I'll think about how to make a quotation."
Perhaps this is also the first time this person has seen such a list of kidnapping a dog.
……
End of the fourth performance——
Ji Yu's cooperation stage still won No.1, and she continued to win the No. [-] throne. Because of Chu Nanxing's retirement, there was a newcomer in the top nine this time.
It is worth mentioning that Jin Huang from Class F who was chatting with Ji Yu before, because he performed so well in the C position on this stage, the vote unexpectedly rushed to 11th place, which is a little short of the debut position.
Rong Bai's fans gradually worked hard and helped her rush to the second place, Ling Lan was the third, Jiang Lianque was the fourth, and Chang Xue was the fifth...
It doesn't look like much has changed.
Ji Yu followed the car back to the hotel, and danced for a while by herself as usual. It had been a long time since she danced the poppin that "Si Tian" taught her before, because there are too many stages and her schedule is too busy. There are many things to prepare, but personal time is constantly compressed.
At four o'clock in the morning, the hotel became quiet, and the system couldn't help but persuade her:
"Yuyu, it's time to go to rest. Today's stage is very tiring, and none of them are practicing. Go to bed too. There are other schedules to catch up tomorrow."
Ji Yu said, "Wait a little longer."
The system asked her: "Aren't you tired?"
Ji Yu said sincerely, "Tired."
In fact, she couldn't jump anymore, and even almost fell, because every muscle and every cell in her body was screaming at her to go on strike, wanting her to give up, even wishing she could give herself some Time to breathe.
but.
Ji Yu didn't want to stop, she stood there, felt the exhausted sweat streaming down her forehead, heard the very soft wind outside the balcony, and her beating heartbeat.
She looked up and saw the dark night sky. Compared with the morning sun, she seemed to see more. It was such an endless night that seemed to never welcome the dawn.
Ji Yu breathed again and again, and each time was heavier than before. Even because her movements slowed down, her fatigue became heavier. The more she rested, the more she couldn't continue.
She stood facing the night wind, sweating profusely, and spoke softly, as if hoping that the wind could bring her words to the person she missed:
"but……"
"Now I only have such a little time every day, and I can use it to think about her."
Actually.
Corgi leaned over to pick up the plastic garbage in her hand, but she didn't respond, her fingertips trembled slightly with that movement, and when she came back to her senses, she stared at her empty palm in a daze.
After Corgi helped her throw away the trash, she noticed other people coming nearby. In order to avoid being chased and asked how this dog appeared, it didn't cause any trouble for Ji Yu, so it went to a corner, disappeared again, and returned to Ji Yu in the body.
