"I was just guessing."
Seeing the classmates gather around, Jiang Nian said, "After the competition, the surroundings were a bit chaotic, and I paid attention to that guy with the bushy beard."
“I saw him go back to the top class to collect those building blocks, and he was clearly struggling when he picked up the box.”
No wonder!
Normally, building blocks are relatively light; a girl wouldn't find it difficult to lift forty blocks.
Even a burly man with a thick beard struggled to lift it, clearly indicating that there was something wrong with the building blocks.
When the students in Class 36 realized what was happening, they felt that Jiang Nian's mental fortitude was simply terrifying.
Knowing that it was the bearded man who took the opportunity to knock down the blocks she had built, she was not angry.
He discovered that the building blocks the bearded man had prepared for the top-performing class were faulty, but he remained calm and composed.
Just do what you're supposed to do. Even if you only get 500 yuan in funding, don't panic, and still lead your whole class to first place in sales.
Just when everyone thought the matter was settled, she went to the head of the teaching department to investigate while others were taking inventory, delivering a fatal blow to Jiang Ranran who had cheated.
Not only did it invalidate the top class's results, it also allowed their class to redeem themselves and prove that they were the strongest in the building block competition.
So this is what it feels like to be a sucker for a big shot?
They were completely carried to victory by following Sister Nian's lead, turning a losing situation into a winning one!
The charity sale organized by Ying-Chung has now come to a successful conclusion.
On the other side, Ji Yuwei's eyes were bloodshot, and she had smashed things all over the apartment.
His chest was still heaving, and he hadn't fully vented his anger.
The agent standing beside her said cautiously, "Yuwei, don't be angry. After all, Jiang Nian was lost for seventeen years before being found. It's normal for your brothers, including Actor Ji, to take better care of her."
"She was lost for seventeen years before being found... How come she didn't die out there after being left alone in the mountains for so many years?!"
"If I had known I could find her, I wouldn't have let her return to the Ji family so easily!"
Thinking of Jiang Nian, Ji Yuwei's tone was filled with jealousy and resentment.
It's all Jiang Nian's fault! She stole everything that should have belonged to her!
"Alright, alright," the agent quickly came over to coax, "Calm down. We have a live stream with Weibo Star tonight, so don't let anyone notice anything."
Weibo Star is an entertainment platform under Weibo.
Every month, they invite popular or trending celebrities to do live streams, generating huge traffic with millions of viewers.
For celebrities, this is a golden opportunity to gain exposure, increase followers, and promote themselves. But most celebrities don't even get invited; they practically beg for it.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuwei took a deep breath and almost sneered.
never mind.
Even if Fourth Brother went to the square today for Jiang Nian, so what? Outsiders don't know.
Now everyone believes that she is the sister that Fourth Brother cherishes most.
Otherwise, the Weibo Star team wouldn't have specifically sought her out and offered to do a live stream together to help promote her new drama.
What she has to do is seize every opportunity to climb up the ladder step by step, until she reaches the top of the entertainment industry.
At that time, she would see if her fourth brother would regret distancing himself from her for Jiang Nian!

8 PM.
The Weibo Star's live stream started on time.
Within just over ten minutes of the broadcast starting, the number of real-time viewers exceeded 50,000.
As soon as viewers entered, they saw that the screen was split into two. On the left screen, Ji Yuwei had meticulously applied makeup.
She wore a haute couture white fitted strapless dress, with a diamond headband, and every single strand of her hair was meticulously styled.
On the right is the host of Weibo Star. As soon as he came on the microphone, he praised Ji Yuwei: "Yuwei looks really beautiful tonight."
Ji Yuwei smiled and said in a sweet, gentle voice, "Thank you for the compliment."
After a few pleasantries, the host got down to business.
"Yuwei, your name and that of Actor Ji have been trending on social media for the entire afternoon today."
"I heard that you and Actor Ji both went to Xingyue Square this afternoon to participate in a charity sale for senior high school students organized by Jiangcheng Yingzhong School, is that right?"
"Yes," Ji Yuwei had anticipated the host's question and delivered her prepared answer with an elegant smile.
“Actually, when I’m not filming, I often participate in some charity and public welfare activities. This charity sale at Ying Chung is a great event. Helping those students raise more money to donate to mountainous areas is something I can do.”
"I didn't originally intend to promote anything, but... well, everyone knows how influential Actor Ji is, he can't stay low-key even if he wants to. I don't know how many media outlets and paparazzi came this afternoon, so naturally this matter went viral."
When Ji Yuwei mentioned Ji Yubai on her own initiative, especially when her paused pronunciation sounded exactly like the word "brother," the host's eyes lit up.
"So, did Actor Ji arrange to attend that charity sale with you, Yuwei?" the host asked.
"But I heard that one of you went to the top-performing class in the senior year of Yingzhong High School, and the other went to the worst-performing class, Class 36. Why is that?"
“Well…” Ji Yuwei smiled, “Naturally, it’s because Class 36 was the worst class and only received the least amount of funding, so Actor Ji took the initiative to help them.”
"After all, our goal is to help students sell more items, and there's no need for two people to be in the same class."
"So that's how it is, no wonder."
Ji Yuwei's constant use of "we" confirms that her relationship with Actor Ji is not ordinary.
The host's tone became ambiguous: "Yuwei, as everyone knows, Actor Ji hasn't updated his Weibo since he registered. But just these past few days, he's updated it twice, both times related to his sister."
