Is there anyone with a system worse than hers? She was dragged into this world, and after finally steeling her heart to kill the supposed "scumbag", it turns out she got the wrong person. A...
The plane is slowly descending, its fuselage blending perfectly with the blue sky and white clouds. The scenery outside the window gradually changes from a blue expanse to a dense cluster of high-rise buildings.
Lin Yang's mood was similar to that of the descending plane, plummeting from high altitude to the bottom of a valley.
She thought she was just flirting with an ordinary handsome guy, but who knew that the face under the black mask looked exactly like her damned target of revenge.
Lin Yang had searched for Xu Chengzhi's photos online before. Well, he wasn't the type of person who was particularly photogenic; he looked more energetic in person than in the photos.
In the photos, he is always dressed in a suit and tie, looking old-fashioned, which completely hides his outstanding appearance.
As for his youthful energy, aside from his clothing, the biggest difference between Xu Chengzhi and his photograph is his eyes.
The eyes in the photo are deep and dark, calm as a black spring, concealing unknown dangers beneath.
Although Xu Chengzhi, who was standing in front of her, only flashed by, she clearly saw that his dark eyes held a glimmer of starlight, unlike his usual lifeless gaze.
He's handsome, but unfortunately his character isn't very good. He must have done a lot of bad things in his past life!
"I won't go easy on you just because you're good-looking," Lin Yang murmured to herself, her gaze falling on the newly added friends in her contact list.
She didn't save his contact by his real name, but rather with the glaringly obvious term "scumbag."
I've gotten used to it in my mind, and I can't change it all at once.
"Sister Lin~" Duan Tiantian said weakly after accidentally glancing at Lin Yang's phone screen.
"Hmm?" Lin Yang turned his head, waiting for her next sentence.
"Our company has a rule that we can't date, and we can't rekindle old flames..." Duan Tiantian swallowed nervously, her eyes darting around, but she didn't dare to meet Lin Yang's eyes. Her words were barely audible until the very end.
When Lin Yang heard Duan Tiantian say such a serious word to remind her, she almost choked on her own saliva.
"Sister Lin, please don't misunderstand. I'm not trying to meddle. I'm really doing this for your own good. Even if you really like him and want to get back together with him, it's not okay. I can't joke around with your career!" Duan Tiantian's face turned bright red as she mustered up her courage to say what was on her mind.
Wait, wait, girl, have you misunderstood something?
Why am I having trouble understanding this?
"Sweetie, what are you talking about? I'm confused." Lin Yang was completely baffled.
Duan Tiantian pointed to the almost-dying phone in Lin Yang's hand, which showed a chat interface where Xu Chengzhi and she exchanged greetings.
The special note was so eye-catching that it was hard for Duan Tiantian not to notice it.
With that one gesture, Lin Yang instantly understood.
This girl must have connected Xu Chengzhi's bold remarks with this nickname, and she's probably already envisioning a whole drama for them in her head!
"You misunderstood. This was my first meeting with him, let alone any rekindling of old feelings. As for my actions just now, everyone appreciates beauty, and besides, it's 2019 already. There's nothing wrong with a girl taking the initiative to add a boy on WeChat to get to know him, right?" Lin Yang explained in a little more detail to prevent Duan Tiantian from overthinking.
As for the note, Lin Yang didn't mention it at all.
Just to avoid further trouble and misunderstandings, she quietly changed Xu Chengzhi's name back to his original name in the contact notes.
Duan Tiantian was just a small assistant. Since Lin Yang had gone around in circles without explaining, she naturally kept quiet and didn't press the matter further.
...
As soon as I got off the plane, the airport was packed with people, mostly fans who had heard the news and came to pick me up with signs.
Looking along the bustling crowd, the signs that were lit up were mostly orange, the color of the support banner, with the words "Orange Juice" prominently displayed on them.
Lin Yang put on a mask and pulled her black baseball cap low, fully armed as if afraid that her crazy fans would recognize her and tear her apart.
To her surprise, after dragging her suitcase for half a day, not a single fan came to bother her.
She even specifically told Duan Tiantian to walk with her and hurry up!
In the end, I came away empty-handed?
Oh, she forgot, she's not that famous in this world yet.
"Ah—the orange juice is out! Girls, keep order! Keep order! Make way for the orange juice!" Just as Lin Yang unconsciously slowed down, screams suddenly rang out behind her.
What's going on? Is this system messing with me again?
In those fragmented memories, what I clearly see is that the scumbag was not as popular as her. She became a minor celebrity as the second female lead in "Dynasty," while the scumbag, who played the second male lead, didn't make much of a splash. In the end, he became famous step by step by living off her.
Judging from the looks of it, there are people who are much more popular than her now.
Why does that scumbag have a bunch of fans waiting for him at the airport, while she only has a bunch of empty air waiting for her?
Lin Yang became increasingly suspicious that this unreliable system was messing with her.
"Orange juice! Mommy loves you! Ah, orange juice! You're so handsome I'm about to faint!"
"Orange juice! You've lost weight again! We want you to eat more, otherwise we'll feel bad for you!"
"Orange Juice! Keep up the good work on your new film! We're with you! Keep it up!"
"Orange Juice" is a nickname given to Xu Chengzhi by his fans, derived from the homonym of his name, Chengzhi—Orange Juice.
Xu Chengzhi got off the plane later than her, and his entourage was completely different. Seven or eight security guards surrounded him, and two assistants followed behind him, along with fans who had consciously organized their own lines.
"Thank you, thank you." Xu Chengzhi was known for being a man of few words and rarely spoke. Even to his fans who wholeheartedly supported him, he only uttered a few words.
"Orange Juice, make sure you eat well on set. If you have time, you can read the letters we wrote. We'll always be here for you!" In the orderly line, someone handed a letter to Xu Chengzhi who was walking over.
