After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 541 - 531: Big News at Nine

"Uh, I’m going to help Lu Zhengzheng make breakfast."

Jiang Lingxi watched Fang Yao turn and jog away, then sat cross-legged on the bed for a while, feeling at peace.

After all, she’s no longer Jiang Yuanzhao, who had to adhere to imperial etiquette with every move, but rather Jiang Lingxi, who can live completely for herself for once.

Being a bit wanton and capricious in her actions is no big deal.

After ntally preparing herself, she got up, washed, and when she saw Fang Yao again in the dining room, Jiang Lingxi was able to wave casually at her and then sit down elegantly, "Morning."

"Ah, morning, good morning, Xixi."

On the contrary, Fang Yao was still a bit slow to react, taking a couple of seconds to respond.

She even had a small reflection, thinking that Xixi is so elegant and intellectual that the image of her rolling around on the bed with a blanket must have been a hallucination.

The three sat around the dining table having breakfast.

Fang Yao ate quietly, her movents sowhat restrained, while Lu Zhengzheng was already gossiping while eating.

"Xixi, what ti did you sleep yesterday?"

Asked this, Jiang Lingxi paused while biting into a xiaolongbao, rembering the chat interface with Shen Yunqing she’d viewed this morning, showing the call ti, "Around eleven-thirty, why?"

"Then you probably didn’t see that Jing Huai posted a status update at midnight, saying that at nine this morning, he will reveal a super big scoop on his account. Do you think it might be about that..."

Lu Zhengzheng stopped mid-sentence facing Fang Yao’s curious wide eyes.

Got so used to talking, she’d forgotten there was now a new colleague.

Jiang Lingxi shook her head at her, "It’s okay, just say it."

Fang Yao was soone she personally picked, she was confident in her judgnt.

Lu Zhengzheng smiled at Fang Yao, gave her another xiaolongbao, and after receiving thanks, continued, "It’s about him and Xu Qingi. I think only that can be considered a super big scoop, but how dare he, after all, it’s Xu Qingi!"

Jiang Lingxi lowered her eyes and calculated the ti.

It’s been four or five days since Jing Huai terminated his contract with the company; enough ti to cut ties with his previous work.

Once the cut is complete, there are naturally no more concerns.

"He’s out of the industry now; no matter how influential Xu Qingi is in the entertainnt circle, it can’t affect soone who’s already left."

"But if he really exposes this himself, he’ll never be able to return to this circle. And since he’s the protagonist of the scandal, to minimize impact, the dramas and variety shows he’s done may all get taken down, which is a huge loss."

"He himself must have been ntally prepared for this."

"But why does he feel the need to expose it? There’s no benefit to him! I was thinking about it so much last night I almost couldn’t sleep."

"Perhaps he’s scared for his life!"

Lu Zhengzheng looked puzzled.

Jiang Lingxi glanced at the untouched soy milk in front of her and changed the topic, "You’re eating the slowest, hurry up."

The fact that Jing Huai stabbed Xu Qingi and personally witnessed her eerie and terrifying side is not suitable to tell these two simple-minded youngsters in front of her.

Fang Yao was all ears throughout and naturally ate the fastest.

Although curious about what the big scoop was, seeing that both Xixi and Zhengzheng seed to know the details, she still suppressed her curiosity and didn’t ask further.

After putting down her chopsticks and checking the ti on her phone, it was almost eight, only a bit over an hour to wait.

While Jiang Lingxi was leisurely eating breakfast, others in the circle and online, curious about what the big scoop could be, were full of anticipation, but on Xu Qingi’s studio’s side, the atmosphere wasn’t great.

There was naturally no breakfast, most of the people in the studio stayed up all night, including Xu Qingi herself, who hadn’t slept all night. With her mood at rock bottom, she looked so haggard it seed as if she’d aged several years.

"What’s the use of the vast amounts of money I spend keeping you all every month!"

"No one can find him, his account can’t be blocked, what are you all doing? With all your experience, and top-notch IT skills, is this how you work?"

"Do you even want to keep working or not?"

A plastic stool was kicked away by an exasperated Xu Qingi, one of its legs striking a girl’s stomach.

The girl winced in pain, looked up at the woman who was once regarded as a Goddess by millions of fans but now seed more like a madwoman, biting her lip to stifle her cry.

Xu Qingi’s assistant, under the pleading eyes of everyone, stepped forward with trepidation, "Sister Xu, I, I think what Jing Huai wants to say might not be that thing. Although he’s out of the industry now, exposing it would still bring him no benefit, why would anyone self-expose..."

Xu Qingi responded with a slap that showed no rcy, "What do you know? Who do you think you are, did I tell you to question ? I want you to find Jing Huai, or block his account, what’s with your nonsense!"

Xu Qingi’s assistant, covering her stinging face, quickly bowed and apologized, "I’m sorry Sister Xu, I was wrong."

Others were chilled by the sight.

If even the assistant who’s been so busy by her side could get slapped in front of them, it was even worse for the regular studio employees.

Instead of thinking about how to et Xu Qingi’s demands, they should be considering how to leave the studio.

Following an artist who seed increasingly unhinged, they saw no future.

Even though everyone in the studio racked their brains, as nine o’clock approached, there was no progress at all.

"Soone is deliberately covering Jing Huai’s tracks."

"The other party’s IT skills are better than mine!"

"Sorry Sister Xu, the other party might be impatient, my computer just crashed."

Xu Qingi couldn’t help but scratch her head, reached for the water, only to be horrified to find a strand of dull, lifeless hair wrapped around her finger.

She was losing hair!

She wasn’t even forty!

Forget drinking water, with trembling hands she pulled out her phone, dialed three numbers in a row, but all were off.

"Master, Luan Hua, Luan Feng, what on earth happened to you?"

When Xu Qingi’s assistant ca in from outside, she saw Xu Qingi had unbuttoned her top and was looking down at the spot over her heart.

Instinctively, she glanced over too, and when she saw the clear wound there, her pupils contracted instantly.

"Sister Xu, did you get hurt?"

Touching the wound that had reappeared over her heart, Xu Qingi couldn’t answer her assistant, as her legs gave way, collapsing to the ground.

The injury left by Jing Huai was healed by the Master.

It was completely healed before, but now the wound was back.

And her hair!

The mirror was on the table, but Xu Qingi didn’t dare look, afraid of seeing her aged, weary face.

A thought she didn’t want to think but had to consider, were the abnormalities on her body due to sothing happening to the Master?

"Quick, get in touch with Jiang Lingxi, I rember she was recently filming with, with Chong Yin, I need to find her, I have to ask her sothing!"

Xu Qingi’s Assistant: "..."

Couldn’t help but rub her ears, wondering if the slap had caused her to hallucinate.

She was genuinely doubting Xu Qingi’s sanity at this point!

Getting hurt and not imdiately calling a doctor, what use would contacting Jiang Lingxi be?

"It’s better to call a doctor..."

Xu Qingi directly scread, "I told you to find Jiang Lingxi, didn’t you hear!"
