Having achieved her goal, Jing Li was too lazy to argue with the two anymore. She picked up her bag and slowly got up to leave.
"They're already disregarding me before they've even become famous. What will they be like in the future?"
Behind him, Jin Tianyu's indignant voice gradually faded away.
A sharp glint flashed in Jing Li's eyes, and a sarcastic smile curled at the corner of her lips as she opened the dormitory door and went inside.

A week passed quickly, during which TG's popularity continued to grow. Xingheng seized the opportunity to release the news that TG would be releasing a second single.
A week later, Jing Li received her schedule.
Although she did not agree to Xingheng's contract renewal, her schedule was still packed for the next six months.
It seems they've decided to squeeze every last bit of value out of her. There have been very few solo activities for her, and she's mostly been tied to her group to participate in various variety shows and reality shows.
It's obvious they want to use her popularity to boost the entire girl group and increase TG girl group's profile.
Jing Li didn't offer any explanation for the itinerary; for a moment, she seemed to have reverted to her timid self, completely at Jin Tianyu's mercy.
Three days later, the four members of the girl group went to the TV station to record a large-scale competitive variety show called "Kings vs. Kings".
Apart from the host Xia Jiang, there are no fixed guests on this variety show. Each episode has a different theme, and the fun of the show lies in letting everyone get to know their favorite stars better through games and competitions.
This episode focuses on boy groups and girl groups.
In addition to the girl group TG, the guest lineup also included the currently popular girl group Witch and two popular boy groups, Poison and Goodnight.
TG (four people), Witch (two people), Poison (three people), and Goodnight (three people).
There were exactly six men and six women.
Variety shows have scripts, but they don't strictly dictate what you should say or do. However, you'll be familiar with the basic procedures beforehand.
Strictly speaking, this variety show was mainly to promote the youth idol drama "Go, Girl!" starring Poison's lead singer, young heartthrob Yue Qing, and Cui Xueling.
To put it bluntly, the four members of TG were just there as a foil. It just so happened that the girl group was about to release a single, so they brought them over to ride on their popularity.
As the audience entered, the recording of the show officially began.
"Hello everyone, welcome to the live broadcast of 'King of Glory Showdown'! I'm Xia Jiang, the beloved and charming host of King of Glory!"
As Xia Jiang finished speaking with his humorous and witty words, enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.
"The applause today sounds a little different. Everyone seems very excited. It seems you already knew the theme of this episode, didn't you?"
"yes……"
The audience burst into laughter and applause.
"That's right, the theme of this episode of 'King of Kings Showdown' is - Go for it, boys and girls!"
Today's guests have put me under unprecedented pressure. I used to be a handsome young man who relied on my looks, but now that they're standing in front of me, I feel like an old man. Let's give a round of applause to welcome the three members of Poison into the room.
As the music played, three members of Poison emerged, dressed in boys' school uniforms from "Go Girls!", immediately eliciting excited screams from the fans.
"I know what you guys are excited about. It's because the nation's school heartthrob, Chu Ziyang, is here. With the school heartthrob, how can we forget his best buddy? Don't you all agree?"
Xia Jiang raised an eyebrow and smiled, and the audience immediately began excitedly chanting Cui Xueling's character's name from the drama: "Ruan Wen, Ruan Wen, Ruan Wen..."
"Let's give a round of applause to Choi Seol-ryung, who plays the female lead in 'Go, Girl!', and her girlfriends as they make their dazzling entrance!"
