Chapter 259 and Chapter 258
Zheng Min was skeptical, but that was not what she came here for today. She looked more serious and said, "There will be a dinner party in two days. The attendees are all bigwigs from all walks of life. Come with me."
"Sister Zheng, you know that I don't like going to that kind of occasion." Jiang Qiao frowned and refused.
"I know you don't like it, but there will be many big directors going this time," Zheng Min said, "You want to make a movie, right? This is your chance."
Jiang Qiao is beautiful and has a large traffic. All the TV series she starred in were hits, and she also received many magazine endorsements. She is a well-deserved top female star, but she has not received any good movie scripts so far.
This also gave many haters a reason to attack Jiang Qiao, saying that her acting skills could not stand up to the big screen, so those big directors would not choose her.
Zheng Min naturally knew that these comments were all nonsense. The reason why Jiang Qiao couldn't get a good movie script was simply because he was too stubborn and refused to accept the unspoken rules.
Many rich second-generation nobles have sent out signals that they want to support Jiang Qiao, and some have even pursued Jiang Qiao for several months, but Jiang Qiao is like a piece of wood and refuses to agree.
Thinking of this, Zheng Min sighed: "Xiao Qiao, think about it. This is how the entertainment industry is. I know you have the ability, but sometimes the ability is not the most important. Resources and connections can determine how far you can go."
Zheng Min spoke earnestly and before leaving she specifically mentioned that a mediocre actress had found a sponsor and the next day she received a script for the leading female role in a big IP. This sponsor was a rich second-generation who had once pursued Jiang Qiao.
She was alone again in the simply decorated house. Jiang Qiao sighed, collapsed on the sofa, and stared at the ceiling absentmindedly.
After a while, he stretched out his hand and slowly covered his heart.
She seemed to have had a very long dream, so long that she didn't know what day it was. She couldn't remember what the dream was about, but she felt an emptiness in her heart.
It felt like I had lost something very important, and I felt so sad and suffocated that I could hardly breathe.
A message came in on her phone, but she didn't look at it. She knew it was Zheng Min sending a message about the time and place of the dinner.
Jiang Qiao suddenly felt very irritated. As night fell, she drove aimlessly on the street.
Everything around her was so familiar. This was the city where she had lived for more than 20 years, but she felt strange for no reason.
Unconsciously, she drove to the old town. She stopped and stared blankly at the dilapidated old alley.
The house is not soundproof. I don't know whose child is being beaten. Other neighbors came out to watch. The crying can be heard clearly.
"Ding-ling——" It was the sound of a bicycle. A boy in a blue and white school uniform rode past the car.
At that moment, Jiang Qiao felt her mind go blank. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already gotten out of the car. Her remaining rationality prevented her from chasing after him. She stared blankly at the boy's increasingly blurred figure.
The dull pain in her heart made her squat slowly, as if only this could barely relieve the endless sadness.
The vision in front of her gradually blurred. She touched her cheek absentmindedly, her fingertips were wet.
Why are you crying?
Jiang Qiao still didn't understand why she was so sad, but the sadness was already overwhelming her like a tide.
The sound of chatting came from the alley, getting closer and closer. Jiang Qiao stood up and just opened the car door when he heard a faint cry.
“Meow… meow…”
The skinny little kitten crawled out from the grass crookedly. It had big cat eyes and white fur with black streaks, looking very pitiful.

"You exiled 166 to the capital?"
In the void, Liu Lin asked this while looking at the man with his back to him.
Lu Xun's fingers tapping the transparent light screen paused for a moment, then returned to normal in an instant, and asked indifferently, "Any questions?"
This was a rhetorical question without any emotion. Liu Lin smiled and said, "No problem, just asking."
"There are so many things to deal with?" Liu Lin glanced at Xiao Liu who didn't even have time to look up, then turned around and asked Lu Xun: "Do you want me to help you?"
The system needed to be upgraded and downgraded, and there were many instructions to be issued and tasks to be handed over. He had been busy for more than a week. Hearing this, he kept moving: "No need."
"Can Xiao Liu handle this?" Liu Lin said casually, "She's not smart, so don't mess things up."
"I won't!" Xiao Liu finally looked up. She was not a smart person. She said indignantly, "I did everything the master asked me to do very well!"
Thinking of something, Xiao Liu felt a little proud: "The master has given the terminal to me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing. She looked at the cold-faced man in panic and lowered her head to wait for punishment.
The terminal is the integrated processor of the small world. It controls the operating rules of many systems and the world, and is an instrument used by the world consciousness to correct the rules.
Liu Lin narrowed his eyes, his gaze fell on the dark grey scarf in the man's hand and paused for several seconds before he spoke: "The terminal is difficult to control, Xiao Liu is not capable enough."
"And you." Lu Xun said in a flat voice.
Silence, a long silence, Liu Lin seemed helpless and puzzled: "Why?"
"You should know that your human body has been severely damaged. If you come to the capital as a human, without the aura of a protagonist, your life will be very difficult."
"I know."
Lu Xun's tone was calm, and there was no change on his face. He looked so cold-hearted, but the words he said were so crazy and unreasonable.
How ridiculous that the guardians of the rules break the rules for the sake of cheap human emotions.
The air was somewhat still, and the light spots floating in the void seemed to have stopped moving.
Liu Lin was silent for a while, and then said, "I can only try my best to arrange a better identity for you, but your human body cannot be repaired, so I hope you can be prepared."
He strode out after he finished speaking, as if he didn't want to stay even for a second. When he was about to walk out of the void, he heard a man's voice: "Thank you."
It was still the familiar cold voice. Liu Lin sighed silently and walked out.
The light spot in the void began to float again. Xiao Liu looked over secretly. The usually cold and mechanical man was in a trance, his eyes fixed on the dark grey scarf on the table.
Jiang Qiao finally went to the dinner, mainly because Zheng Min was too annoying. She would call her several times a day, and it seemed like she wanted to tie her up and go over there herself.
As soon as I got off the car, I met Wei Ting, the second female lead in the previous drama.
"Sister Xiao Qiao, what a coincidence! I was thinking the dinner would be boring, but luckily I met you..." Wei Ting said, with a sweet face full of surprise: "After the dinner, I will treat Sister Xiao Qiao to a simple meal. There is a restaurant nearby that is particularly delicious!"
La la la
Those who didn't understand don't worry, in short, all the system tasks are over, Xiao Qiao returned to the real world, Lu Xun gave up his identity as a world consciousness and truly became a human, and followed him together,
