"Okay, I'll go tell my family right now and cancel all cooperation with the Zhao family!"
"Okay, I'm satisfied!"
"Well... Mr. Shang, I'll be leaving first. After all, the company's affairs are not my responsibility. I need to report today's events to my family." Bai Ren stood up and said.
"Okay, you go first." Shang Lu waved his hand and said.
"Goodbye!" Bai Ren said, then turned and left the box.
After Shang Lu successfully completed the task assigned by Su Jingmo, he felt that he had no intention of staying here any longer, so he made a quick decision and immediately set off to fly abroad. Return to Jingdong? That was impossible. He would think of everything that had just happened in the group. It would be better to go abroad and hide for a while. Saving his life was the most important thing!

After returning home, Bai Ren detailed the incident to his parents and brothers. Upon hearing this, Bai's parents speculated that the Zhao family might have done something to displease a prominent figure in Jing City. After careful consideration, they decisively decided to disassociate themselves from the Zhao family and immediately cancel their cooperation. They had already been embroiled in a dispute over the land, and now that not only had the land been secured, but also that the Zhao family had offended a prominent figure in Jing City, the Bai family cut ties without hesitation. Subsequently, the Bai family informed their close friends of the incident, encouraging them to distance themselves from the Zhao family.
The situation for the Zhao family, however, was quite different. Not only did they fail to meet the prominent figure from Beijing, but after the banquet, they received shocking news—the land had been acquired by the Bai family and was now theirs. Simultaneously, the Bai family cancelled all ties with the Zhao family. This series of setbacks plunged the Zhao family into an unprecedented predicament, leaving them at a loss as to what to do.
In the world of the wealthy in Hai City, as the situation changes, the highly anticipated program "Ordinary Us" is about to start its third episode.
After methodically packing up her belongings, Qu Qingdai said goodbye to Su Jingmo. She boarded a bus and slowly drove to the assembly point. As she disembarked, the familiar scenery greeted her. She took a deep breath, a wave of emotion welling up in her heart. Finally here, she thought to herself. She'd waited so long for this episode. In her previous life, it was this episode that completely ruined her reputation, and in this life, she was going to stage a remarkable comeback. No matter how treacherous Jiang Baizhi might be, she was fully prepared.
Meanwhile, Jiang Baizhi was still on the road. Sitting quietly in her car, her eyes fixed on the rapidly passing scenery outside the window, her thoughts drifted to the plot of the original novel. In the original novel, the fake daughter had long since disappeared, but now she still existed. She knew full well that the plot had changed, and she had already made plans based on the original novel's plot after entering the book. Those things she had long decided to snatch would help her reach the top in this episode. For all of this, she had been meticulously preparing for two years. She told herself that only success was allowed, not failure!
At the gathering point for the third episode of the variety show, Qu Qingdai, Jiang Baizhi, Tan Changqing, Bai Renhe, and others arrived one after another. Some were unhurried, some looked expectant, and some were slightly excited. Each arrival seemed to add a unique touch of color to the venue.
As time passed, all six of the regular guests gathered. Amidst this lively atmosphere, the long-absent director finally reappeared. His presence signaled the start of this variety show extravaganza.
Almost immediately, the livestream officially began. The flashing camera lens and the real-time images unfolded everything before the audience. The long-awaited audience, upon seeing the livestream, excitedly posted comments.
They expressed their emotions in words, telling of their love and expectations for this variety show.
[The days seem like years, and I finally waited for the third issue! ]
【The third episode is finally here! I've been waiting so anxiously! 】
[I don’t know what the theme of this issue is, looking forward to it...]
【It’s been a long time since we last met, I miss you so much! 】
【Ahhh, the third episode is finally here! I'm crying my eyes out!】
[Who will be the guest star this time? I'm really looking forward to it!]
"Dear guests and viewers, it's been a long time since we last met! Our variety show 'Ordinary Us' has finally welcomed its third episode! In this episode, we will bring you a brand new and unique experience!" The director spoke passionately. "First of all, I would like to solemnly introduce this episode's guest star, the renowned painting master Tao Huaixi, Mr. Tao! Let's give him a warm round of applause!"
"Wow! It's him! The program team actually invited Mr. Tao to this episode! It's really amazing!" Lin Zhirou said to Jiang Baizhi in surprise.
"Yes, it's indeed him!" Jiang Baizhi responded.
"So this issue is about art?" Chao Yan asked doubtfully.
"This... I'm not good at art." Bai Ren scratched his head and said.
"Since Mr. Tao was invited, it must be related to art." Tan Changqing said affirmatively.
"It's finally here." Qu Qingdai murmured softly, and only she could hear this subtle sound.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Tao Huaixi slowly emerged. Dressed in a simple, elegant long gown, the hems fluttering in the breeze, he exuded a refined demeanor. With steady steps, he approached the procession of guests. His slightly graying hair gleamed with wisdom in the sunlight. A gentle smile graced his face, and his eyes revealed a deep, tranquil strength.
