Su Xingran stared resentfully at Su Jin's rapidly increasing number of followers on Weibo, which was approaching one million.
He angrily threw his phone on the sofa.
"Mom! Why does she have so many fans?"
In Su Xingran's mind, Su Jin should never be as good as her and should always be trampled under her feet.
But now that she's a star with millions of fans, I can only work as an ordinary accountant in this small company. Even this job was something my father had to beg and plead for to get for me.
Ironically, they weren't this concerned when their own daughter, Su Jin, was looking for a job after graduation.
Su Jin's first job was as a member of a small dance troupe, and she quite liked it. However, she lost this job after marrying Gu Xingze.
Su's mother quickly hugged her precious daughter and comforted her, "Who does she think she is? Didn't you see the comments about her online? They say she started seducing men in college and has a sugar daddy behind her. Humph, I think that's all true. Otherwise, how could she have so many fans on her own?"
"Back then, when that Mr. Gu wanted to marry her, I bet she used some underhanded tactics to get into the Gu family. She's shameless. If our Ranran became a star, she'd definitely be more popular than her."
Su Xingran was still unwilling to accept it, "Why can she easily have a bunch of fans supporting her! I can only stay in that lousy company!"
She was fired from her company a few days ago for some inexplicable reason, and now no company will hire her.
Su's mother was at a loss. "But we don't have any way to get you in."
At this moment, Su's father also came out of the room. "To say that women can't accomplish great things, are you all stupid? Isn't this a perfect example?"
He pointed to Su Jin's Weibo homepage on his phone screen.
...
Achoo!
Su Jin rubbed her nose guiltily.
Sending Lin Shi to fish was also for her own selfish reasons; she needed to hurry up and complete the mission.
She took out a military shovel from her backpack and glanced at Shen Yanxiu casually as she shoveled dirt, trying to think of a topic to talk about.
Noticing her gaze, Shen Yanxiu turned his head, pursed his lips, and asked, "What's wrong?"
He was still a little angry, so he didn't want to call her Ajin.
But that was all his anger had to do with it.
Su Jin chuckled and said, "It's nothing, I just sensed you were a little unhappy?"
Shen Yanxiu's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't expected her to see through him. Did she care about him...?
"Ding! Favorability +1."
Su Jin was secretly delighted, thinking to herself that she was indeed a genius.
Ye Shuwei came back skipping and hopping, "Here you go, the branch you wanted."
Seeing that the large hole was almost finished, Su Jin instructed Shen Yanxiu to connect the two holes to form an outdoor stove, the Dekota Fire Cave.
She went to check on how Lin Shiyu's catch was going.
Snap!
A lively trout splashed onto her face.
"...You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Lin Shi cupped his hands in greeting, "How dare I, Your Majesty! You are the king of the world, a majestic ruler!"
Su Jin stroked the fish, which was neither too big nor too small, on the shore. "I feel a little reluctant to kill it. I really like small animals, like Sichuan-style chicken, boiled fish, and grilled fish."
As she spoke, tears streamed down her face.
Su Jin's eyes turned green with envy...
God loves small animals.
Su Jin took out a knife to process the fish, and a bloody smell filled the air.
Ye Shuwei frowned and pinched her nose. "Can we eat it in a bit?"
"Do you want to starve to death or die of disgust?"
"Can't I just not choose it? I don't want to eat such disgusting food." Ye Shuwei's face scrunched up.
She quickly prepared a few fish, sliced them, skewered them on tree branches, grilled them over a fire, and rubbed them with thyme she had found along the way.
"No one is indispensable; even fish can be grilled after being taken out of water."
The aroma wafted out shortly afterward.
Ye Shuwei's eyes lit up. "It smells so good."
[Hahahahahahahaha! One second: What disgusting stuff! The next second: It smells so good!]
This is so delicious, I'm going to eat it all!
[Just kidding, the scene is surprisingly harmonious with a few people missing.]
Open the lid of the multi-purpose pot, and fragrant rice is ready, although the bottom is a little burnt.
Ye Shuwei looked left and right and asked, "Where are the chopsticks?"
Su Jin told her to look up and see where she was. "Do you think there would be chopsticks in a place like this? Just let it cool down and eat it with your hands."
Lin Shi couldn't wait any longer and picked up the grilled fish slices, stuffing them into her mouth.
The food was cooked to perfection, tender yet not dry, and for her, who hadn't had a proper meal for almost two days, it was practically a Michelin-starred feast.
She looked at Su Jin with tears in her eyes, "Everyone admires strength, but you don't at all."
She suddenly knelt on one knee, "Because Your Majesty is already the strongest in the world, a dragon among men!"
Su Jin smiled and helped her up, "Rise, my dear minister. They say you are a treacherous minister, but I don't think so!"
[...He became the wild emperor of the jungle.]
[Ugh, why can't I tag my friends? I want to be emperor!]
Her expression changed the moment she became obsequious.
After a hearty meal, they took the leftovers back for the three people to eat.
Su Jin kept glancing at Chen Yanxiu on the way.
"That one, Shen Yanxiu?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Have you ever had a crush on anyone?
Shen Yanxiu stopped in his tracks, a hint of unease flashing in his eyes.
"not yet."
Su Jin, unsuspecting, asked, "Oh, so what type of girl do you like?"
Shen Yanxiu stared at Su Jin's dusty face, which looked tired after a long day.
She said slowly, "She's good-looking and has a sunny and brave personality, but I can never understand what she's saying."
Hearing the first name, Su Jin couldn't help but frown. Is she good-looking?
Does that mean she has no other options besides plastic surgery? But she still wants to fight for herself again.
"Do you have to be good-looking? Can't you just look funny?"
[Hahahaha, who understands my sense of humor? She seems genuinely asking.]
What does she mean by this? Does she like Shen Yanxiu? Aren't they married?
[It shouldn't be; it's just a simple abstraction.]
These days, even speaking the truth is considered abstract.
But Shen Yanxiu's fans are not calm.
[Damn it, get out of here, you green tea b*tch!]
[Su Jin is already married, can't she stop being so shameless and asking such ambiguous questions? What exactly does she want?]
Can't this person keep themselves clean? Have some shame? Don't get involved.
Off-screen, CEO Gu was practically grinding his teeth to powder. What was this old man planning to do to his wife?!
We're all men, who wouldn't see through his little scheme?
Just because his wife Jinjin is simple-minded and can't see through things doesn't mean that Shen Yanxiu can openly seduce his wife!
Gu Xingze really wanted to rush in and question Su Jin immediately: if he and Shen Yanxiu fell into the water at the same time, who would she save?
Unfortunately, the production team confiscated the guests' phones, and they wouldn't be able to get them back for three days.
Gu Xingze could only pace around the room in frustration.
