Chapter 73: Continuing to Watch the Show



Lin Ruanruan was munching on a melon while holding her phone when her grandmother handed her a fragrant roasted sweet potato. "My dear granddaughter, look at your phone less; it's bad for your eyes."

Lin Ruanruan immediately put down her phone, took the roasted sweet potato, and Grandma Lin thoughtfully gave her a small spoon so she could scoop it out to eat.

"Grandma, the roasted sweet potatoes at home are so sweet." Lin Ruanruan said, squinting as she savored them.

Since Grandma cares about her, she should rest her eyes for a while.

We need to give her some time to process things. Xue'er's scandals are too explosive. There's this one about a married male celebrity having a child with his mistress, who is now being supported by the couple, and the mistress can visit the child frequently.

This male celebrity is usually known for his image as a good husband, so Lin Ruanruan could hardly believe it when she found out.

In this variety show, there is a female celebrity who usually presents a kind and understanding persona, but behind the scenes she is even worse than Xu Yelu. Li Xueer witnessed the other party making her assistant kneel down as punishment.

There are also two internet celebrities who participated in the variety show and their unclear relationship with the assistant director. They were seen coming out of the assistant director's room several times.

The assistant director tried to talk to Li Xueer, but she completely ignored him. It was disgusting.

Li Xueer, a college student from a prestigious university with impeccable political credentials, had never seen anything like this before. She immediately told Lin Ruanruan that she had only briefly dabbled in the industry and didn't plan to enter it again.

She should just stick to researching cosmetics and becoming a beauty blogger; that would be much better.

Lin Ruanruan was both amused and exasperated by this decision; Sister Xue'er gave up so quickly.

Lin Ruanruan scooped up another spoonful of sweet potato and put it in her mouth, chewing it slowly. Actually, it's normal for Sister Xue'er to give up. She's always had a biased view of this industry, hoping to present herself like the stars in it.

It turned out that this circle wasn't as wonderful as it seemed on the surface. Talent alone wasn't enough to make someone shine, and being pretty wasn't enough to guarantee popularity.

The most crucial element is the capital behind it; those who possess capital are the most favored.

For example, Xu Yelu, who leans against Chaoxing.

Thinking of Xu Yeluo, the sweet potato in Lin Ruanruan's mouth didn't taste so good anymore. Sister Xue'er had only told her these explosive rumors, but hadn't told her yet whether Xu Yeluo had caused her any trouble.

I just hope Xu Yelu can keep a low profile and stop causing trouble for Sister Xue'er.

However, her hopes were dashed; Xu Yelu really did cause trouble.

That evening, Lin Ruanruan opened her chat with Li Xueer as usual. Usually, Li Xueer would have already sent her a message to let her know she was safe by this time, but she hadn't today.

She quickly called Li Xue'er, and thankfully the phone was answered after only a few rings. "Sister Xue'er, was something wrong?"

Li Xueer's voice came from the other end of the receiver, "Something happened, I reported it to the police."

Lin Ruanruan's eyes widened instantly, and she asked anxiously, "What happened? Sister Xue'er, are you alright? Or did the test results for that skincare product from a couple of days ago come out?"

Li Xue'er sensed Lin Ruanruan's concern for her, and she couldn't help but laugh, "Ruanruan, I'm fine, it's like this..."

Just as described in the book, Li Xueer has become incredibly popular this time.

Lin Ruanruan also knew about this, because she was also watching "Winter Talent Show," and many people had become fans of Li Xueer.

Two days ago, Xu Yelu suddenly found her in front of the camera and wanted to give her a set of skin care products, saying that she had specially brought them back from France.

It has to be said that Xu Yelu has done a very good job of maintaining appearances. In front of everyone these past few days, she has presented herself as a gentle and charming young lady.

If Lin Ruanruan hadn't warned her beforehand, she too would have been deceived by the other party's appearance.

Li Xueer couldn't refuse in front of the camera, so she politely accepted.

When they got back to their place, Xu Yelu went straight into her room.

"Xue'er, I think your skin is very nice. The skincare products I gave you can brighten your complexion. Shall I apply them for you?"

Li Xueer politely declined Xu Yelu's offer, but Xu Yelu insisted on helping her, which made her suspicious.

She refused Xu Yelu's help, citing an upset stomach. As soon as Xu Yelu left, she hid the skincare products he had given her.

She called her family and asked them to send someone to pick up something.

Because she was afraid that Lin Ruanruan would worry, she didn't tell her in detail that Xu Yelu had come to see her again. She only assured Ruanruan that she would send the items for testing.

The next day, she could clearly feel Xu Yelu staring at her, which made Li Xueer even more certain that there was something wrong with the skincare products.

Then Xu Yelu asked her familiarly if she used skincare products. Li Xueer was flattered and said that she had used them, but she accidentally spilled them last night.

Xu Yelu's expression turned sour at that moment, but she quickly regained her composure. "Then I'll bring you another bottle when we get back to your room. You can't refuse my help this time."

“But my face is itchy when I use it. I washed my face for a long time yesterday. Maybe it’s an allergic reaction?” Li Xue’er kept looking at Xu Yelu’s expression.

At that moment, the camera wasn't filming them, and Xu Yelu's face immediately darkened. "She's just a small-time internet celebrity, and she dares to act high and mighty with me."

She stood up and went straight to chat with the married male celebrity.

Li Xueer raised an eyebrow; her expression changed really quickly.

Remembering Ruan Ruan's words of advice, she lowered her eyelids. It seemed she needed to be careful of this person.

Today, Xu Yelu finally made her move. She had been keeping an eye on the online trends for the past two days. She originally wanted to use this live stream to clear her name and gain some fans.

As a result, Li Xueer surged ahead, and the internet was abuzz with discussions about her. Xu Yelu couldn't stand an internet celebrity behaving so arrogantly towards her.
