"Was I...very vicious last night?"

Shen Jiezhu's focus is always so strange. Xiaomi was stunned for a moment and didn't respond to her words. Instead, Quan Zhilong suddenly smiled and nodded.

“Yeah, a little bit.”

Quan Zhilong woke up early this morning. When he turned his head, he saw Shen Jiezhu, who was in the bed next to him, was covered very tightly with a quilt, with only her head sticking out. She was sleeping very soundly.

With nothing to do, he first asked An Shang about what happened yesterday. After confirming that the cars did not collide and neither of them was injured, he clicked on the video that An Shang forwarded on his social media.

Kwon Ji-yong was not interested in the video at first, but when he saw the caption when An Sang forwarded it, he decided to click on it and take a look.

[I kneel down and call him boss! Boss, boss, boss! ]

In his memory, An Shang was a cocky guy. Even though they had met before, Quan Zhilong felt that this kid was the most arrogant and stubborn. Anyone who could make him call him "big brother" wholeheartedly must be a powerful person.

I clicked in with the idea of ​​finding the big boss, and the first second I saw Shen Jiezhu slapping someone in the face.

There was a very loud slap. Perhaps because the place was so big, the slap actually had an echo.

Only then did he realize that the big boss An Shang was talking about was Shen Jiezhu.

In the next fifteen minutes, he watched Shen Jiezhu's video five times, and the more he watched, the more amazed he was. The part where she circled around Park Zhizhen was just like a movie. If the picture was not so blurry that he had to squint, he might have really thought it was a clip from a TV series.

Her years of experience as a star told her that after this clip became widely circulated, someone would definitely ask her to play this kind of role.

Currently, most of the female protagonists in TV dramas are gentle and kind, or well-behaved and obedient. In order to become the female protagonist, the actors' makeup, facial features, and image are all developing in this direction.

This slap from Shen Jiezhu can be said to have put her in the candidate seat for the vicious female supporting role.

If you work harder, you might be able to conquer the entertainment industry.

Shen Jiezhu, a professional thug in the entertainment industry.

This name sounds very domineering kkkk!

The smile on his lips was about to be suppressed, and Quan Zhilong felt that he needed to divert his attention.

"But I want to add that the word 'vicious' is not a derogatory term. I'm not saying you are vicious, but your state is vicious."

Kwon Ji-yong explained it very sincerely.

He was wearing a pink hospital gown, with an innocent and simple look on his face, sitting obediently like a hamster waiting to be taken home. His curved eyes always had a hint of smile, which softened the harsh curve of his eyebrows.

Different from the one on TV and on stage, Kwon Ji-yong at this moment inexplicably has a sense of immaturity and innocence.

When Shen Jiezhu looked over, he even nodded at her.

"real."

Finally, he added: "I think what Xiaomi said makes sense, Zhuzhu, you may really receive an invitation to play a vicious female supporting role."

Shen Jiezhu was stunned for a moment, then looked away: "Who cares? I haven't received it yet. Let's consider this matter when the situation changes."

Xiaomi and Quan Zhilong's mouths are like blessed, whatever they say comes true.

At 4pm, just after Shen Jiezhu signed the advertisement for the facial mask, a casting director found Xiaomi. Shen Jiezhu sat on the bed and watched Xiaomi's hand holding the phone start to tremble. Her expression changed from confusion to shock, and then to gratitude.

Five minutes later, she hung up.

Taking a deep breath, Xiaomi spoke amid the puzzled looks of Shen Jiezhu and Quan Zhilong.

"The evil role is here! Hahahahaha! Piggy, you're about to enter the entertainment industry!! The script will be delivered to your home tomorrow night. Although it's not a complete plot, there are a few clips that are very representative of the character's personality. Take a look, Piggy, and decide whether you want to take it."

"Seeing you laughing like that just now, I thought you had already answered it, hahaha!"

"Of course I have to read the script first. I can't make decisions on this matter alone. When the script arrives, we will study it together. Our first work as a pig must be a stunning success!"

Xiaomi patted Shen Jiezhu on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Next, I will work hard to recruit people and open our studio. You just take good care of your health and then work hard on your career!"

Shen Jiezhu looked at the hand on her shoulder and the smile on the girl's face, and suddenly felt that she, who had been living alone, seemed to have found a tree to rely on.

When I was in Baiyun Mountain before, there were only three of us: my master, myself and a junior fellow apprentice. It seemed like I had never had any sisters.

Later, when she arrived in Han Country, Shen Jiezhu was alone again. Not only did she not have any friends in the huge city of Seoul, she didn't even have any family.

She originally thought that she would have to survive alone again, but unexpectedly she participated in "We Are in Love" and met seniors such as Xiaomi, Anzi, Shixun, Taiyang, and also... G-Dragon, who was miraculously recuperating in the same ward as her.

Thanks to the original owner for signing up for this variety show.

Thanks also to the bearded guy for his help.

"Pig, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

Xiaomi's gentle call brought Shen Jiezhu back to her senses. She looked up and met Xiaomi's worried gaze, and her heart couldn't help but feel warm.

Smiled and said, "I suddenly thought of something very important."

"What?" Xiaomi was a little curious.

"It seems you haven't been to our studio yet."

After saying that, Shen Jiezhu turned around and took out a bunch of keys from her bag: "I wanted to go see it with you last night, but I had to buy office supplies right away, so I had to trouble you to go and see what the environment is like first. If it's not suitable, I have other options here."

"Pig! You're so fast! Are we going to have an office area soon?"

"Hahaha, yes. We have new sisters coming soon. We have a big family here. We can't just stay at home and work all the time, right? I'll send you the address. Do you have time to go and take a look?"

The cell phone rang, Xiaomi opened the chat room, and was stunned when he saw the address.

"No. 36, Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu... I remember the commercial area there was super expensive!"

"Really?" Shen Jiezhu was stunned for a moment. She really didn't know the housing prices in Seoul. This was one of the assets of the original owner, and she just picked one at random.

"Yes! Pig, I love you so much!"

Xiaomi jumped up again: "Are you some hidden rich woman? The kind who can buy a building with just the movement of her fingers?"

Shen Jiezhu was hugged by her, and all she could do was laugh: "Ahem, I'm not angry anymore, Xiaomi. If you hug me any further I'm going to faint again, hahahaha!"

Xiaomi immediately let go of her hand, looked at the key in her hand, and couldn't stop smiling.

"I have already recruited three people. I will definitely shoot a video to show everyone later! No, I should call everyone out so we can go watch it together!"

Shen Jiezhu nodded: "Well, why don't you guys go have a nice meal together and then go out and have some fun? I will reimburse all your expenses today!"

Xiaomi's eyes lit up: "So I call them?"

"Um."

Soon, the other three people set out from different areas of Seoul and rushed to Cheongdam-dong together. Xiaomi also resolved all the current contract issues and left the hospital to keep the appointment.

Quan Zhilong witnessed Xiaomi's super high efficiency and couldn't help but sigh: "Piggy, you are taking away the treasure of the program team."

"Xiaomi is indeed a treasure, but she has been suppressed by the program team. Such a talented person should be placed in more important places and bring out greater value!"

After a pause, she looked at Quan Zhilong and raised her eyebrows: "For example... in my studio."

Ha! Isn't this just a disguised way of exaggerating that your studio is a treasure?

G-Dragon looked at the smile on her face and couldn't help laughing out loud: "Pig, I remember when I first met you, you spoke very little and had no expression. At that time, I thought you were aloof and didn't like talking to people."

Shen Jiezhu recalled that at that time, she had just entered this body and felt extremely unfamiliar with everything around her. She would easily get nervous in an unfamiliar environment, and when she was nervous, she would act particularly cold.

"Well... that was the first time I met you. I didn't know who you were or what your personality was like, so I was nervous. Now it's different. Now I'm relaxed!"

Quan Zhilong glanced at Shen Jiezhu, who was half paralyzed lying on the sofa, eating grapes with her legs crossed, her shoulders slumped against the back of the sofa, and her bun was flattened.

"Yeah, I can see that. It's really relaxing."

The two smiled at each other, and both saw kindness in each other's eyes.

The sounds in the ward gradually disappeared, and neither of them spoke to break the silence. Shen Jiezhu faced the window, looked at the sky outside, and thought about what she should do next.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Quan Zhilong responded: "Come in!" Shen Jiezhu sat up straight and looked over.

The door of the ward was pushed open, and a familiar smiling face appeared at the door.

"We are here to visit two of our sick friends!"

"Senior Sun!" Shen Jiezhu immediately stood up and greeted him, and also greeted Dasheng, Shengli, and TOP who followed him in.

During this time, she gradually realized the strictness of the Han country's hierarchy, especially the unconditional obedience of the younger generation to the older generation, which is most serious in the entertainment industry.

She is now trying to adapt to this kind of relationship. No matter which idol she meets, it is always right to call him/her "senior" first.

"Oh my god, you pig are still so polite to us, stop bowing, sit down, you are still a wounded soldier!"

Sun motioned for her to sit down, then took out some snacks and placed them in front of her.

"I heard that you two are fine, we just need to observe you for a while. I guess you must be very bored, piggy. Here, these snacks are prepared for you!"

There were delicious foods in front of Shen Jiezhu, but nothing in front of Quan Zhilong.

There is no harm without comparison. Kwon Ji-yong said he was hurt.

"Wow! Who are you here to see? Didn't you say you missed me? That's not what you said in the chat room just now!"

"Look at the pig, and take a look at you by the way, hahaha!"

TOP's answer elicited nods of agreement from everyone. The four of them high-fived and couldn't stop laughing.

Seeing how good the relationship was among the five of them, Shen Jiezhu couldn't help but be infected by this atmosphere and started laughing along with them.

After a long time, the sun looked at her, with a hint of apology on his face.

"Pig, I heard that we were driving too fast and that's why you got hurt. I'm sorry."

"It's okay! I'm not hurt. Look, I'm fine. I'm not even scratched. No need to apologize to me."

If you really look into the car accident, it wasn't his fault. If An Shang hadn't called him to come along, he wouldn't have come.

Car accidents will not happen.

So in the final analysis, it's still your own fault.

In order to show that she was really good, Shen Jiezhu stood up, turned around, and rolled up her sleeves to show him.

Taiyang just found her agile movements funny.

"Hahaha what's going on, our pigs are really getting cuter and cuter!"

Next, the seniors began to discuss the concert with Kwon Ji-yong. After all, this was an internal matter of their group. Shen Jiezhu felt that her presence here might affect them, so she said something to them and walked out of the ward.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the sky was full of rosy clouds, and she went to the rooftop as usual. The originally messy rose bush had now been reorganized, and the red-gold light fell on the roses. Shen Jiezhu seemed to see the heat rising from the red stamens.

She squatted down and suddenly felt a little regretful that she didn't bring her cell phone when she just came out. She was so bored and didn't know when she could go back.

The woman's sixth sense told her that their affair would not be over for a while, and out of boredom, she finally squatted down and began to count the thorns.

"One, two, three, four, five..."

When the count reached 21, a man's voice came.

"Ms. Shen?"

Because of the gift she received this afternoon, Shen Jiezhu now has a stress reaction when someone calls her. She turned her head suddenly, so fast that it scared the other person.

Another guy wearing black, but without sunglasses.

Sister Shen frowned, and asked in a puzzled tone: "Is it that lady?"

The man's expression was even more confused than hers: "Ah? What Madam?"

That's not the case.

Shen Jiezhu felt relieved and stood up from the ground. She felt the familiar feeling of her lower body missing.

Okay, after being hooked by a rose thorn at noon, my legs are numb again.

She thought that she must have a conflict with this place, otherwise why would this happen every time she came here?

Her legs were numb, but she couldn't show it, so she raised her hands to hold onto a tree nearby, trying to look as cool as possible.

"Hello, who are you?"

"Hello, Miss Shen. I am the deputy director of the Photo Gallery."

Guan Xiang Gallery, the metaphysical view of palmistry and face reading. The master Cui Zhen who invited me in the comment section of Instagram today is the director of Guan Xiang Gallery.

Shen Jiezhu was a little surprised. The gold foil letter mentioned this morning was delivered this afternoon? Guanxiangguan was too fast.

Only Xiaomi and the others knew about my hospitalization, and I didn't tell any media. I didn't expect that they could find this place. It is worthy of being called a great place of metaphysics.

"Hello, are you here to deliver the gold foil letter?"

The other party did not expect Shen Jiezhu to ask this question. After a pause, he replied: "Ms. Shen, we are still making the gold foil letter and it will be delivered to you tomorrow."

"So you're looking for me..."

"It's like this. I just saw you, Miss Shen, at the entrance of the stairs and realized that you were also in this hospital."

Are you also in this hospital?

The word "也" is used very cleverly!

So... Master Cui Zhen is here too?

"Is Master Cui Zhen also here? May I ask how the master is doing?"

"The curator has been feeling groggy since he was hospitalized. He keeps waking up and falling asleep, and then suddenly waking up again. He has lost a lot of weight and doesn't eat much. He always says he has no appetite. He didn't eat much all day today."

Listening to the deputy director's description, Shen Jiezhu felt that Master Cui Zhen seemed to be more seriously ill than in the video she saw today.

Has the backlash power really reached this level?

It could make such a powerful person so sick.

"Ms. Shen, our director originally didn't want us to look for you, saying that this was all his own fault. He read the face without asking your opinion, so he deserved the backlash. But as his nephew, I really couldn't bear to see him fall like this."

The deputy director took a step back and bowed to Shen Jiezhu.

"I would like to ask you to come out and help the director. No matter what the conditions are, our photo gallery can do it as long as you can help."

During the time when the two were communicating, Shen Jiezhu finally felt the existence of her legs. The moment the deputy director bowed to her, she stepped forward and helped her up.

"Please don't be like this. I, a junior, can't bear this. This incident was caused by me, so I will definitely take responsibility. I was originally thinking of going to the photo studio after being discharged from the hospital, but who knew that the master and I were actually in the same hospital. This is fate."

As she spoke, Shen Jiezhu touched her pocket, her expression a little hesitant: "But... I don't have anything I need with me now, can you wait while I go get it?"

The deputy director hurriedly asked her: "Miss Shen, what do you need? We have everything here. All the props are treasures purchased from the other three museums."

It can be seen that Guanxiang Museum really values ​​Master Cui Zhen. Things that can be called treasures must be expensive. They were able to buy all the things in the other three tubes, which shows that the situation is urgent.

"Okay, let's go now."

"Ms. Shen, don't you need to change your clothes?"

Shen Jiezhu thought of Quan Zhilong and the others. If she went in now, she would definitely disturb them, so she decided to give up.

"No need to change it, this will do."

Seeing how determined she was, the deputy director had nothing to say, so he nodded and led her downstairs.

In Master Cui Zhen's ward, on the side facing away from them, Shen Jiezhu had just turned the corner when she saw many reporters gathered at the door not far away.

The patients needed quiet, so they didn't make any noise, but just stood in a very neat line at the door of the ward.

In this extremely quiet situation, the footsteps of the deputy director and Shen Jiezhu were so obvious.

Everyone was still calm when they saw the deputy director, but as soon as they saw Shen Jiezhu, they went crazy and immediately gathered around, with all kinds of microphones raised to her mouth.

The sound of camera clicking continued. Shen Jiezhu squinted her eyes uncomfortably. The strong light passed by made it difficult for her to open her eyes.

"Please make way for us. We have something very important to deal with." The deputy director pushed those people away for her.

"Pig, what do you think about Master Cui Zhen's physical condition?"

"Now everyone says that Master Cui Zhen became what he is now because he saw your photos. Can you tell me what kind of energy is in your photos?"

"Pig, why are you wearing a hospital gown? Did Park Shik Jin really take revenge on you?"

"Pig, you are injured now, can you still participate in "We Are in Love" in two days?"

"Pig! What is your relationship with Quan Zhilong like? Do you think he is a good senior to get along with? Is it possible for the two of you to fall in love?"

"Pig, the Wizarding Hall just announced that you have joined the Wizarding Hall. Is this true? If so, why did you choose the Wizarding Hall and not consider the other three halls?"

…

The distance from the staircase to the ward door was the longest road Shen Jiezhu had ever walked. In just over a minute, she felt like half of her life had been questioned.

Fortunately, the deputy director was strong and cleared a way for her to get out. When she was almost at the door, the disciples inside heard the noise and ran out to drive away the reporters. Only then did Shen Jiezhu get a chance to catch her breath.

The moment she entered the room, Shen Jiezhu was struck by the luxury of this ward. It was twice as large as her own ward and was fully equipped with leather sofas, velvet carpets, vases and jade.

The table was filled with metaphysical supplies, from the most basic blank talisman paper to the most advanced red hexagram compass. She could even say that this place was a complete exhibition hall for metaphysical supplies.

"Senior Shen, Master just woke up for a while and fell asleep again."

A boy who was guarding the bed made way and stood aside silently.

Shen Jiezhu went forward to check. Master Cui Zhen seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden. He looked groggy. Just by looking at his face, one could tell that he was in great pain, but he couldn't say it and could only suffer in pain.

The most urgent thing is to wake him up first. Only in this way can Shen Jiezhu ask him what he saw that day.

Thinking of this, she turned around, walked to the table, picked up a pen, drew a talisman, took it back to the bed, and stuck it on Master Cui Zhen's forehead.

The deputy curator glanced to the side and said, OK, this is another symbol they have never seen before.

How much of the lost talisman does Shen Jiezhu know?

How could such a talent be snatched away by those people from the Wizarding House? What a pity.

There were four disciples guarding the ward, plus the deputy director, five people in total. Shen Jiezhu did not deliberately avoid them, which meant that they were allowed to watch.

After receiving this information, everyone gathered around.

After sticking the talisman, Shen Jiezhu sat on the chair in front of the bed, playing with the five copper plates with her fingertips.

The five copper plates represent the five gods.

Master Cui Zhen saw who had possessed his soul and immediately knew who had taken him over. He called him over briefly to ask him about the situation before figuring out what to do next.

"I would like to ask, have you seen this person? If you have, please ask him to see you."

The first bronze plate is useless because it is not in the Eastern Green Emperor's possession.

"I would like to ask you, have you seen this person? If you have..."

The second one is useless because it is not with the Red Emperor in the South.

…

Shen Jiezhu asked three questions in a row, and it was not until the fourth question that the talisman paper moved. Everyone watched as the talisman paper on their head was blown away and fell to the ground. After a while, he woke up slowly.

It seems that his soul is detained by the Northern Black Emperor?

But the Black Emperor governs so many gods, which one did Master Cui Zhen offend?

"Master!! You're awake!"

The young disciples gathered around. Master Cui Zhen was extremely tired. He slowly turned his head to look at everyone, and finally saw Shen Jiezhu.

"Master Cui Zhen, you don't have much time to be awake. I called you back to ask you what you saw in my photo. Only by knowing this can I prescribe the right medicine."

Master Cui Zhen blinked and winked at the others. The disciples surrounding him immediately understood what he meant, turned around and left the ward. Soon, they were the only two people left in the room.

At this time, Master Cui Zhen slowly spoke.

"I saw... the messenger of hell, standing behind you."

…

When Shen Jiezhu left the room, she experienced another death interrogation. This time, there were four people escorting her. Shen Jiezhu told the deputy museum master about the situation and promised that Master Cui Zhen would be better after tomorrow night.

The deputy director thanked her gratefully and personally escorted her to the ward door.

Because she didn't know whether her seniors were still there, Shen Jiezhu chose to knock on the door.

However, the person who opened the door for her this time was a well-maintained middle-aged woman.

The moment she saw her, Shen Jiezhu subconsciously looked up at the ward number. She suspected that she had walked into the wrong room. However, at this time, the auntie enthusiastically let her in.

"Come in, come in, you are a pig, right? The little girl is so pretty and looks so well behaved, hahaha!"

Shen Jiezhu: "Hahaha, Auntie, you know me."

"Yes, yes, I watched your live broadcast!" The aunt's enthusiasm was a little scary.

Hearing this, Shen Jiezhu was shocked. Are there actually aunties watching her live broadcast? What age group are her fans?

"I watched you and Zhilong when they first met, and I followed you all the way until the end of your live broadcast yesterday!"

!!!!!!!

"So you are..."

"Oh, I'm Zhilong's mother, and this is his father. His sister is working overtime today and doesn't have time to come over, so the two of us are here. I hope we didn't disturb you, Piggy."

Shen Jiezhu hurriedly greeted: "No, no, no! I won't disturb you at all. I'll go out for a walk. I just ate too much and my stomach is a little uncomfortable now. Hahaha!"

"Huh? But Taiyang just said you didn't eat anything?"

Shen Jiezhu: "..."

"I know you young people need your own space, so we'll leave right away. It's getting dark, so don't go out. Come and try the beef soup I made. It's Zhilong's favorite. Try it and see how it tastes."

Shen Jiezhu sat on the sofa with a bowl stuffed in her hand. Under the gaze of her uncle, aunt and Quan Zhilong, she silently drank a sip of soup.

"It's delicious, the soup is very fragrant, it tastes like nothing I've ever tasted before! Auntie, your cooking skills are amazing!"

Sister Shen's praise is sincere.

When Mother Quan heard this, she was so happy that she happily served her another spoonful and prepared to pack up and leave.

Shen Jiezhu asked them to stay a little longer, but they said they had things to do at home and had to go back quickly.

Before leaving, they reminded Quan Zhilong to have a good rest, eat on time, take care of his body, especially be careful when practicing dancing, soothe his throat after singing for a long time, and stop to rest for a while if he has been busy.

They gave a lot of instructions, almost everything they could think of.

Quan Zhilong nodded, but inadvertently saw Shen Jiezhu standing beside him with a bowl in her hands, staring at him blankly.

She pursed her lips and frowned slightly, like a lost lamb, abandoned by everyone, standing there alone, her eyes full of confusion, and unable to conceal her emotion and envy.

…

Mother Quan and Father Quan left. Shen Jiezhu and Quan Zhilong saw them off and walked in one after the other.

After entering the room, Shen Jiezhu returned to the sofa and continued to drink beef soup. She found that the soup was really delicious, without any fishy smell, but full of rich fragrance and warmth.

She had just used up all her energy with Master Cui Zhen, so she needed to replenish her strength.

After drinking a bowl, Shen Jiezhu finally remembered Quan Zhilong.

"Do you want more?" she asked.

"No, I'm full. This is the portion my mom brought for you. I hope you like it."

Shen Jiezhu was concentrating on drinking her soup and didn't notice Quan Zhilong's complicated expression or the inexplicable tenderness in his eyes.

He suddenly realized that apart from Xiaomi, no one else who was close to Shen Jiezhu came to see her today. Even those people from the Wizarding House came with a purpose.

In other words, only Xiaomi truly cares about her.

Where are her parents? Where are her friends? Her cell phone was in the ward all day, and no one marked as "Mom or Dad" called her.

So she...

"Pig."

"Um?"

"Where are your family members?"

Sister Shen paused for a moment and answered decisively: "I don't know."

Quan Zhilong took a deep breath and leaned against the head of the bed in silence for a long time.

She doesn't even want to talk about her parents and family. She must have been hurt in the past...

Shen Jiezhu drank the soup and sighed deeply.

Ah! What a headache! Who are my parents?
