Chapter 155: Connect, connect!
Ye Wanxi's words startled not only Qi Yingxuan, but also Gao Min, who was standing next to her.
She had just been following Ye Wanxi and had witnessed the change in Ye Wanxi's attitude towards Chen Debang, so she roughly guessed that this matter was not so simple.
But she never expected that this matter would be related to human life!
"So, that script..."
"You robbed someone, caused their family to be ruined and killed, and then paraded around with their belongings, reaping numerous honors. If you were in that situation, would you be willing to accept it?"
Of course he was unwilling! Qi Yingxuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he already had a pretty good idea of what was going on.
"Did you tell Chen Debang about this?"
"No, I only told him to stop filming. Filming can't proceed unless the script or screenwriter is changed. I don't know how he interprets it."
To be frank, Ye Wanxi and Chen Debang weren't that close, so there were some things she couldn't say to him directly, but she could say to Qi Yingxuan.
As for whether Qi Yingxuan will tell Chen Debang later, it depends on whether their relationship is as good as it appears on the surface.
Furthermore, Ye Wanxi wasn't sure if this phenomenon was common in the industry. She might be indignant, but the other party might think she was making a mountain out of a molehill.
Qi Yingxuan clearly understood Ye Wanxi's plan. After a moment of silence, he said, "I understand. I'll explain this to him. By the way, you went through all that trouble to make this trip, so you must have gotten some money from him, right?"
"I took it. Besides that, I also sold a few peace charms, each worth 100,000."
"Tsk, if you ask me, you've sold it for too low a price. Don't let that kid's current act of complaining about being poor fool you; his family's wealth isn't any less than mine. The peace talisman you drew yourself is essentially giving them an extra life, unless it's a particularly serious accident or a particularly powerful evil spirit. Selling such a good thing for only 100,000? Junior Sister, you're losing money hand over fist!"
Hearing her fifth senior brother's exaggerated complaints, Ye Wanxi finally smiled a little: "It's okay, I only sell my talismans to those with good intentions. There's a saying, 'A thousand pieces of gold can't buy my happiness.' If it were those who do evil and are always thinking of causing trouble, I wouldn't be willing to give them even if it were a million or ten million, let alone 100,000."
"Alright, alright, just leave this to yourself. Let that kid worry about it." Qi Yingxuan said, then, as if he'd just thought of something, cheerfully added, "Since he can't stay on his film set, why don't you come and stay on my set for a few days and see how your fifth senior brother makes TV dramas?"
"No, my agent said he got me a job, and I'm a bit busy lately. Let's talk about it when I have more free time."
"What else did your agent arrange for you to get?
“I’ve accepted it…” Ye Wanxi turned to look at Gao Min and gestured to her with her eyes.
“Received it…” Gao Min’s mind suddenly went blank, and she couldn’t think of any resources she had recently.
Just then, a message suddenly caught my eye.
"I took on 'A Day at the Zoo'. Yes, I took on this one."
"A Day at the Zoo?" Ye Wanxi herself was confused. Was this a variety show or a TV series?
Upon hearing the name, Qi Yingxuan immediately realized: "You're going to do this variety show? Well, that makes sense. You've always been popular with animals, and it seems that way now. I saw you on that other variety show; when you went out to buy peaches, you attracted all the little animals from the flower and plant market next door. Be careful not to cause a riot if you participate in this show."
It turns out it was a variety show.
Ye Wanxi's eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled faintly, "I've never been to a zoo before, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to experience the joy of petting a fluffy animal. Fifth Senior Brother, you don't need to be too envious; I'll pet yours too."
Qi Yingxuan, who is naturally disliked by fluffy things but loves them very much: "..." Thank you, I feel like I've been subtly insulted.
Ye Wanxi's few words, which were so succinct yet deadly, successfully angered her fifth senior brother and drove him away.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Wanxi finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's this 'A Day at the Zoo' all about? It didn't seem to be in any of the invitations you showed me before."
"It was just sent out. Isn't it a coincidence? Just a second after you asked, their production team sent me an invitation to be a guest on the show, and if you perform well, you could become a regular cast member. I checked, and the show has good ratings and generates a lot of buzz. Most importantly..."
"What?"
"I checked where they're going next. I found out that the most famous thing about that zoo is... pandas."
"Gungun?" Ye Wanxi was slightly taken aback, and asked uncertainly, "The one also known as the Iron-Eating Beast, the one with naturally dark circles under its eyes...Gungun?"
"Yes, that's it."
Gao Min confirmed Ye Wanxi's guess and encouraged, "This program requires guests to take care of one or more animals in the zoo for a day, helping them eat, play, and clean."
"Although there are other small animals in this zoo, there are quite a few pandas. If you behave well, or like that day, all the small animals will come to you on their own, and you might actually be able to pet the big dumpling that everyone dreams of."
After Gao Min finished outlining these tempting conditions, she turned to Ye Wanxi and tentatively asked, "So, will you accept?"
"catch!"
As a native of China, who can resist the temptation of sesame dumplings?
We must accept it!
Gao Min was also very happy to see that Ye Wanxi had agreed.
When celebrities are filming variety shows, their agents are usually allowed to accompany them.
If Ye Wanxi were more ambitious, she could actually pet those panda cubs and win their favor. Perhaps then, her manager could also benefit from this and reach the pinnacle of her life.
Gao Min quickly contacted the program team, and the subsequent signing of the contract and other matters proceeded smoothly.
Their next shoot is this weekend, and Ye Wanxi will be able to make it in time.
It must be said that the timely appearance of this variety show greatly alleviated Ye Wanxi's depression and unease caused by the script incident.
Just then, Ye Wanxi received another piece of good news.
Most of the Chinese medicinal herbs she asked the Bai family to find have been located, packaged, and delivered to her by a designated person.
After seeing the person in charge of handing over the medicinal herbs, Ye Wanxi finally understood what Old Master Bai meant by "a special person".
"Young Master Bai."
Bai Haoqi smiled gently and said softly, "Miss Ye is my savior. If you don't mind, just call me Haoqi. Calling me Young Master Bai is too formal."
Ye Wanxi thought that she might need to continue cooperating with the Bai family in the future, so she nodded: "That's fine."
The two people outside the gate each wore gentle smiles; the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, like a perfect couple.
Someone who was a step too late and saw this scene immediately turned pale.
