Chapter 114 He wanted to ask her to tell his fortune.

When the agent said this, he also glanced at Wu Qianqian's legs, which were wrapped like a mummy.

Wu Qianqian wouldn't listen to her agent's advice at all, and said indignantly, "What's so strange about it? It's just a marketing ploy to fool you idiots. If she were really that amazing, why was she slandered so badly before?"

The agent was caught off guard by the personal attack and his face turned dark.

Wu Qianqian, completely oblivious, angrily asked, "What about the company? What did they say?"

"Mr. Fang just called me."

"General Manager Fang?" Wu Qianqian looked surprised. Their company only had one General Manager Fang, who was the undisputed boss of their company.

"Why would he call you? Could it be that... he's interested in her, or he's finally discovered her potential and is preparing to promote her?"

Before Wu Qianqian could finish her dream, her agent said quietly, "He asked me if I had gotten Ye Wanxi's or her agent's contact information since you were on the same show before."

"Why do you need their contact information?"

He wanted her to tell his fortune.

Wu Qianqian: "???"

Regardless of Wu Qianqian's lingering resentment, the production team of the variety show Ye Wanxi participated in was also incredibly awful.

Upon seeing that this matter was gaining popularity, he actually carried a camera and went to interview the family involved, and even forcefully explained to them what Ye Wanxi had done on the show.

Fortunately, this family didn't have so many complicated thoughts in their minds. After listening to what everyone in the program crew said, they were really grateful to Ye Wanxi.

Especially the young boy who finally escaped his mean and greedy adoptive parents and returned to his biological parents.

They also collaborated with the production team to film a video thanking Ye Wanxi and posted it on the official website, which garnered a million views in just one afternoon.

After seeing the appearance of this young boy, the audience who watched the live broadcast and screen recording finally understood why the poor mother at that time treated Ye Wanxi as her son.

This young man is incredibly handsome, with a distinctly feminine appearance. He's only thirteen or fourteen years old, with rosy lips, white teeth, and delicate features.

If he were to wear ancient costume, he would truly be considered a handsome young man from a bygone era in a period drama.

Not long after the program crew finished filming the video, they contacted Gao Min again and invited Ye Wanxi to become a permanent guest of the program.

Gao Min still didn't agree. After Ye Wanxi finished filming her scenes for the day, she told her about it.

Ye Wanxi's expression turned ugly after hearing this, and she replied coldly, "Reject it. Don't work with any variety shows related to this production team's director again."

Gao Min breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then sneered and muttered, "They're all old foxes, what kind of ghost stories are they trying to tell us?"

The program crew really treated them as fools. They went to interview that family without asking for their permission, and even deliberately guided them to cooperate with them in expressing their gratitude to Ye Wanxi.

They thought that by doing this they were currying favor with Ye Wanxi and helping to boost her current reputation and fame.

Little did they know that some things, when done too deliberately, appear fake.

Gao Min just saw someone leave sarcastic and mocking comments on Ye Wanxi's public account.

The police and search and rescue team didn't say anything, but this minor celebrity couldn't wait to come out and promote herself and steal the credit.

In the end, the production team gained viewership and buzz, while Ye Wanxi, who did nothing wrong, was unfairly blamed and sacrificed.

The program team took all the benefits and wanted Ye Wanxi to be grateful to them. That was a nice thought.

"I heard that Wu Qianqian accidentally fell off the stage during an event a couple of days ago and broke her leg. If nothing unexpected happens, she will probably have to leave the show."

Ye Wanxi immediately understood Gao Min's hint. Although the program crew had repeatedly invited Ye Wanxi to continue to join as early as the end of the filming of the previous episode, their plan at the time was to let Ye Wanxi go and confront Wu Qianqian to create a hot spot.

Now that Wu Qianqian has withdrawn due to injury, it would be fine if the person who joined later was someone else.

But if it were Ye Wanxi, who repeatedly clashed with Wu Qianqian on the show, then in the eyes of others, especially Wu Qianqian's fans, it would be Ye Wanxi stealing their family's resources.

There will inevitably be another quarrel at that time, which is probably the ultimate goal of the program team. However, they probably didn't expect that Ye Wanxi's side would not take the blame at all.

Wu Qianqian was once a popular actress, and her fans are incredibly ruthless. Ye Wanxi isn't afraid of them, but there's no need for her to.

Tearing it off here and there is just making things easier for the program team.

"You know what, this kid is really good-looking. Apparently, after the video was released, a large number of media outlets and several entertainment companies went to their house and waited for him."

"Stop them? Interview them?"

"It's not just about interviews; some companies also want to take advantage of this opportunity to sign people."

Ye Wanxi frowned: "He's not even fourteen years old yet."

"Fourteen years old is not young. There are child stars in the industry, some of whom enter the industry at the age of three or four. However, given his family's situation, it is indeed not suitable for him to enter this industry."

Gao Min later watched the episode of Ye Wanxi's variety show, and naturally knew that this family were authentic fruit farmers. If Ye Wanxi and others had not gone to their village to film the show, they would probably never have been involved with big stars or the entertainment industry in their entire lives.

If such a person really enters the entertainment industry, he will be ignorant and know nothing, so won't he just do whatever the agency says?

The companies that went to his house to block him were probably thinking the same thing: firstly, they wanted the traffic from his unexpected rise to fame, and secondly, they might have thought he was easy to manipulate.

Ye Wanxi's eyes darkened slightly: "What are the child's own thoughts?"

"It is said that they refused. The child is pitiful. I heard that he was sold to an old couple in a remote village who could not have a son. This family had several daughters in a row, but could not have a son."

"But that village was extremely patriarchal and superstitious. The old couple believed the words of a charlatan shaman in the village and spent money to buy a boy, saying that it would help them have children. After the child was bought, things were fine at first, and in the following years, the old couple did indeed have a son. With their own son, the bought child became a burden."

She had already given birth to several daughters, and she couldn't even support her own daughters, let alone one who was not related to her by blood.

"You can tell just by looking at him now. He's so thin and his complexion isn't good. He's probably suffered a lot over the years. Now that the family is finally reunited, he definitely wants to spend as much time as possible with his parents. His parents probably feel the same way. His mother said she was a bit too traumatized before... The child has been much better since he came back, and he recognizes people now. But now..."
