The Golden Orchid Awards ceremony was the same ceremony where Wei Ran received the Best Newcomer Award.
However, this time Wei Ran had absolutely nothing to do with it.
She has absolutely no presence in the entertainment industry now...
On the contrary, Su Rao will win the Most Popular Actress Award this time.
This award carries significant weight, almost a sign that Su Rao has firmly established herself as a second-tier actress.
Since the female lead doesn't want Wei Ran to stand out.
As the female lead's number one hater, she naturally wanted to make the female lead shine.
then……
Linghu Lan has started a shopping spree.
She's going to dress up beautifully and give the female lead a full-on look.
only……
As you keep buying, you find yourself wanting more but running out of money.
She thought for a moment, then made another phone call.
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello! Mr. Shi is not here right now. May I ask how I can help you?"
"I am Wei Ran..."
"Miss Wei, please wait a moment, Mr. Shi will answer your call shortly."
Linghu Lan: "..."
Shi Nie is Wei Ran's half-brother.
Wei Ran's parents and Shi Nie's parents were close friends before their deaths.
After Wei Ran's parents died in a car accident, Wei Ran was fifteen years old and spent the next two or three years at Shi Nie's house.
After turning eighteen, he began living at school on his own.
I only visit the Nie family during holidays and festivals.
In Wei Ran's memory, she had never asked the Shi family for anything.
The Shi family did not interfere excessively in her life; at most, they would call to inquire and offer comfort when there were negative news reports about her.
Shi Nie was even more cold and aloof, never taking the initiative to call her.
Wei Ran rarely makes phone calls; instead, she communicates with others mostly via text messages.
So she had no idea that she was receiving such treatment from Shi Nie...
Wei Ran's feelings for the Shi family were not deep.
The main reason was that after her parents' accident, she was already quite old and capable of independent thinking. She also became wary and cautious of outsiders, always treating herself as an outsider in the Shi family, until…
In the story, she was splashed with sulfuric acid by the wealthy businessman's wife. The people who actually stood up for her, took her to the hospital, and helped her seek justice were not her relatives, but the Shi family couple.
Wei Ran understood this in her heart, so she later chose to commit suicide, not wanting to burden them for the rest of their lives.
However, this incident became a psychological shadow for the Shi family and Shi Nie, and the whole family was in pain and self-blame for a long time.
Therefore, the person who truly cares about you is like a firefighter: usually quiet and unassuming, but when you encounter difficulties, they are the one who goes against the tide with you.
While Linghu Lan was still in a daze, a deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello?"
"Shi Nie?"
"Um!"
His tone was cool and aloof, carrying a hint of arrogance.
"Um... um, I'd like to borrow some money, is that okay?"
Linghu Lan couldn't help but facepalm. Transmigrating means three generations of poverty!
How much do you want to borrow?
Shi Nie's tone remained cold, but Linghu Lan still detected a hint of surprise in his icy voice.
"Ten million?"
"..."
"Five million is fine!"
"..."
"One million is fine too!"
#The Silent Smiling System: Where is your backbone?
Linghu Lan: My backbone will automatically grow when my bank account balance has a dozen zeros. #
Come to my company, let's talk in person!
Shi Nie hung up the phone decisively.
Linghu Lan: "..."
Mr. Shi, aren't you going to ask me what I need the money for?
Also, hanging up the phone so quickly will give me a psychological trauma...
#SpeechlessSystem: Would someone who can ask to borrow ten million really care about the psychological trauma of being hung up on?
Linghu Lan: I can pretend I have it! #
Linghu Lan did not want to go.
But after searching three times behind me: Where is the money? Where is the money? Where is the money?
She quietly got dressed, picked up her bag, and hurriedly went out to report to Shi Nie.
