Chapter 12 : The So-called Reality

• Being able to hold such a position at a young age, the supervisor was certainly not a pushover.
• Now, with a two million order in front of her, as long as Anya Ting nodded, she could treat her like an ancestor.
• Although the Shine7 members were feeling down, their eyes had already killed Anya Ting a thousand times over.
• Even if Anya Ting was absentmindedly playing with her nails, she could still sense the brilliant expressions on the faces of these fools led by Ma Weiwei.
• Under the supervisor's urging, they left the venue in a dejected manner.
• Zhao Qianyun had been in the corner of the stage the whole time, unaffected by this incident, but she still felt deeply moved.
• It was obvious that Anya Ting was deliberately causing trouble, and anyone with eyes could see that. Yet, the people at the venue chose to turn a blind eye for the sake of their own interests. This was the current state of society.
• On the other hand, the members of the girl group knew very well that as long as they distanced themselves from Su Qianqian, the conflict would not affect them. Yet, they still stood by her side with passion...
• This reminded Zhao Qianyun of herself when she first entered the entertainment industry. That fearless spirit of a newborn calf made her heart stir.
• After so many years in the entertainment industry, Zhao Qianyun had long forgotten what it felt like to be an ordinary person. As long as she was in front of the camera, she had the burden of being an idol.
• For the first time, Zhao Qianyun realized that the Shine7 members were not as terrible as she had initially imagined.
• Although they were not outstanding, they lived authentically and freely.
• Since they were here, they might as well make the best of it.
• Zhao Qianyun's heart gradually opened up, drawing closer to Shine7. For the first time, she truly felt like she had integrated into their group.
• The members walked out of the venue with their heads hanging low.
• Their clothes were thin, but they had to brave the cold wind to prevent their dresses from being crushed on the bus or subway.
• Along the way, the lights were bright.
• Andi looked at the various signs on both sides of the road and complained, "I'm so tired. Because of that bitch Anya Ting, I only got half of my pay."
• As she spoke, she disregarded her image and lifted up her skirt.
• The hem of her dress dragged on the ground, and Andi looked at it with a pained expression.
• Seeing that everyone's spirits were low, Su Qianqian spoke gently, "Why don't we find a restaurant nearby and have a meal to celebrate the fact that we finally reached a stalemate with Anya Ting? Today, I'll treat everyone to a nice restaurant!"
• "Yes, let's celebrate that we've finally reached a tie with Anya Ting in this round! I'll treat everyone to a better restaurant!"
• Ma Weiwei put away her bitter face and suddenly transformed into an enthusiastic youth.
• The members, who were already hungry and grumbling, suddenly became excited at the mention of eating.
• Su Qianqian also revealed her first smile since leaving the venue.
• "I can't let the captain treat us alone. Count me in. Besides, I'm sure today's pay is enough." Su Qianqian raised her hand high, as if greeting this bustling world.
• Instead of getting into her usual nanny car right after the event, Zhao Qianyun wandered the streets with the girls.
• To make progress, she needed to lower her posture a bit, so that the burden on her heart wouldn't be so heavy.
• The group of them entered a nearby high-end hot pot restaurant in a lively manner.
• Su Qianqian didn't mention it, but this was the hot pot restaurant she loved the most before her family went bankrupt.
• The place was so upscale that each table had two waiters serving them, and the waiters themselves were so good-looking that they could go straight into the entertainment industry.
• After the menu was brought to the table, the members were stunned by the prices.
• Li Lei, who had just boasted about having a big feast earlier, was now silent.
• There was no choice but for Su Qianqian to order some non-signature dishes based on everyone's preferences, which would be much cheaper.
• After the waiter left with the menu, everyone quickly became more familiar with each other.
• "I never thought I would eat such an expensive hot pot in my life!" Lu Yishou was the first to complain.
• "Yeah, when I have money, I will definitely try every dish on the menu!"
• The atmosphere became lively again, and Su Qianqian gently blew on the tea in her cup with her mouth.
• As Ma Weiwei chatted excitedly, her eyes sparkled.
• "The people at the exhibition are so power-hungry. That supervisor couldn't take her eyes off Anya Ting. It's all about money! They don't care about right or wrong!"
• Thinking of how Anya Ting had made things difficult for Ma Weiwei, Su Qianqian couldn't help but curse.
• No one noticed the tall figure of a man dressed in a black windbreaker, wearing a black hat, as he passed by them.
• Fu Junqi's eyebrows furrowed as he listened to the woman's complaint. He hadn't expected to come across the woman who haunted his dreams while passing by here.
• Without hesitation, he took out his phone while getting into his car.
• Jing Dianyu, who was having a great time playing billiards at the moment, answered the call and teased, "Why does Young Master Fu have time to call this playboy?"
• "Don't waste time. Go to the Kankan Pavilion and settle the score with your sister-in-law."
• Fu Junqi's tone was serious, and there was a hint of displeasure in his voice.
• Jing Dianyu was surprised. He hadn't expected the perennially unyielding iron tree to bloom.
• "It's on me."
• After hanging up the phone, Jing Dianyu put down his pool cue and left.
• When he arrived at the Kankan Pavilion, it was already empty.
• However, the arrival of someone as influential as Jing Dianyu was enough to disturb the supervisor.
• Even though the supervisor was celebrating signing a two million deal, he had to put down his glass and come out to greet him.
• "Oh! Young Master Jing, what brings you here?" The moment the supervisor saw Jing Dianyu, he quickly bent his waist.
• It had become a habit of his over the years.
• "Come, come, prepare a set of bowls and chopsticks for Young Master Jing. Don't mind the mediocre dishes here."
• While speaking, the supervisor moved his seat to the side, making room for Jing Dianyu in the center.
• Jing Dianyu looked at the delicacies on the table with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
• "I heard that today, you kicked a girl group out of here?"
• The supervisor, who had been observing people's words and expressions for many years, immediately understood Jing Dianyu's intention and quickly apologized, "Young Master Jing's woman, how could I dare to point fingers at her? Please rest assured, I will personally apologize in the morning."
• At this point, Jing Dianyu didn't linger any longer. He just left a harsh remark before leaving.
• "If this matter is not handled properly, everyone in this venue will be kicked out of A City."
• Watching the black luxury car drive away, the supervisor wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.
• As soon as Anya Ting left with the jewelry, he had someone investigate her background and unexpectedly found out that she was Fu Junqi's woman. No wonder she was so arrogant.
• The supervisor didn't take it seriously, thinking that he had chosen the right side. But he never expected that there would be someone from Jing Dianyu's side in the girl group...
• Perhaps he hadn't checked the almanac before going out today.
• The members of the girl group had a happy night, and Ma Weiwei even took the lead in drinking alcohol.
• When they returned to the dormitory, the girls fell asleep on their beds.
• As the sun rose, Su Qianqian, who was still groggy from the alcohol, received a call from an unfamiliar number.
• The fawning voice of the supervisor on the other end of the phone disgusted Su Qianqian, but she didn't understand why the supervisor's attitude had made a complete 180-degree turn.
• "It's all my fault for not recognizing Mount Tai. Don't worry, I will compensate you later."
• After some persuasion, Su Qianqian finally accepted the supervisor's apology.
• "Seven thousand yuan has been transferred to your Alipay account."
• With this voice reminder, the members, who were still half-asleep, suddenly opened their eyes.
