Due to the backlash Wan Wan faced from trending on social media, Li Jie was constantly on the phone dealing with public relations issues. He was so busy that he felt dizzy, and even the production team informed him that they wouldn’t be inviting Wan Wan for future episodes.

As Li Jie anxiously paced, Wan Wan was in a fit of anger and said, “It’s all because of that woman! Who exactly is she? There must be a powerful backer supporting her from behind! Otherwise, how could all the netizens’ comments be overwhelmingly in her favor?”

Li Jie rolled his eyes internally and thought, ‘Did she not know her own princess’s temper? She had caused so much trouble, and now she was blaming others.’ But to avoid being scolded, Li Jie kept his mouth shut.

The more Wan Wan thought, the angrier she became, clenching her fists, her long and elegant nails digging into her skin. She muttered, “Xia Xin, I’ll make sure you taste what it’s like to be subjected to online bullying!”

The filming of the third episode of the variety show took place in the lion’s area. Upon hearing about lions, Xia Xin couldn’t help but recall the final scene from her previous life, where a lion had opened its blood-stained mouth and bitten her delicate neck clean off.

Whenever Xia Xin recalled that scene, she couldn’t help but shiver. This fear of lions persisted, and even though time had passed, she still occasionally had nightmares of her neck being torn apart. She would wake up in a cold sweat, clutching her neck in terror.

However, for the sake of her safety, Xia Xin was determined to push through this time, to muster her courage. Because compared to ferocious lions, the most terrifying thing was the deceitful human heart. She must catch that person.

The female guest for the third episode had been confirmed, but the identity of the male guest remained a mystery. The director of the show even teased, revealing that it was a heavyweight guest, dropping a hint that the person was an upcoming award-winning male actor.

This gimmick stirred up a lot of buzz, with many fans debating the mystery guest’s identity. As a result of the heightened discussion and the man’s mysterious nature, only the director and assistant director were privy to the guest’s identity among the crew members.

Due to the intense speculation and the guest’s enigmatic status, Xia Xin’s curiosity had been piqued. So much so that when Jing MO appeared in the backstage dressing room, Xia Xin couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, “Why is it you?”

Jing MO looked at Xia Xin and asked, “Who were you hoping for?”

Xia Xin didn’t have any expectations because she could count the number of male celebrities she knew in the entertainment industry on one hand.

Moreover. when the director announced that the male actor might win an

award, Xia Xin’s heart skipped a beat. She had a small glimmer of hope that it might be Jing Mo. So her current surprise was also partly a result of her correctly guessing the outcome.

Seeing another female celebrity in the room applying makeup, Xia Xin was aware of how complex the entertainment industry could be. She was concerned that if her acquaintance with Jing MO was discovered, it might be overly sensationalized. She wanted to change the topic and go sit on the couch while waiting for the recording to start.

However, Jing Mo’s gaze shifted to Xia Xin’s leg, and he asked, “How’s your

Xia Xin was slightly taken aback. “How did you know?”

“Anyone who goes online should know, I suppose,” Jing MO said.

‘He’s got a point there…’ Xia Xin realized she had asked a somewhat foolish question.

Xia Xin stood up to move her leg, showing Jing MO that it was completely fine. She said, “It’s already recovered. It was just a sprain. A few days of rest and it’s all good.”

Jing MO sat at the makeup table, glancing at the script, and casually remarked, “Being your creditor, I’ve always worried about whether you’ll be able to afford the next meal.”

Gao Xin, who was sitting nearby and unable to move while her hair and makeup were being done, seemed to have heard some major news. Even though she couldn’t turn her head, she shifted her eyes in their direction and said with a playful smile, “It seems like I’ve heard a secret.”

Xia Xin was also taken aback and in an instant, a myriad of thoughts rushed through her mind, ‘Is Jing MO not concerned about online public opinion? What if news about us knowing each other spread online and it got exaggerated? Was he not afraid of fans discussing and unfollowing him? Especially since there was another female celebrity here. Didn’t people in the entertainment industry value privacy? I had thought Jing MO might pretend not to know me intentionally. Why was he saying things that could easily be misunderstood?’

Seeming to sense what Xia Xin was thinking, Gao Xin smiled mischievously and explained, “If it were someone else, Jing MO might worry a bit. But because it’s me, the bigmouth, he doesn’t need to worry. Besides, everyone backstage is one of us, so no one would spread rumors..”
