Many years later.
Mu Tiantian opened a esoteric arts school. This school is a public welfare institution that provides free education. A portion of the money earned from catching ghosts is used to build the school. In addition to esoteric arts classes, it also offers regular primary and secondary school courses, allowing students to take the college entrance examination and go to university just like other students.
The most important purpose of establishing this school is to increase the number of people who know mystical arts and stabilize the world.
In the beginning, the ghost energy in this world was very weak and did not have much impact on people. However, as time went by, the ghost energy gradually became stronger and affected people. At the same time, the fear that people felt also exacerbated the growth of the ghost energy.
Thus, a cycle began: the number of ghosts increased, more and more people knew about them, and the fear grew accordingly.
However, the number of people who know mystical arts is very small and the increase is slow, and those who can become exorcist masters are even rarer.
Therefore, opening a school and then using the media for publicity is the fastest way.
In recent years, public acceptance has increased, the government has established a special task force to catch ghosts, and added a hotline for reporting ghost encounters.
To help Mu Tiantian's school open smoothly, Huo Jixiu invested in and Mu Tiantian produced a supernatural variety show, which was set near the site of her esoteric school, in order to promote the school.
Even though variety shows offer very high pay, very few celebrities are willing to participate because they have to sign accident insurance, since it involves real ghosts.
However, due to the astronomical amount of personal accident insurance, many celebrities have volunteered to participate in the recording of variety shows.
Although many artists wanted to come, Mu Tiantian still had to screen them. Those with health conditions or those who were forced by their companies not to come were excluded. The insurance they signed was only for the individual artists. If an artist died unexpectedly, a separate compensation agreement would be signed with the company. This was also to prevent individual companies from using artists to commit insurance fraud.
On the first day of filming, Mu Tiantian, as the esoteric arts teacher for this variety show, naturally did not miss the event and made some simple preparations.
As soon as I arrived at the school gate, I heard a series of complaints.
"How come there aren't any snakes in this desolate mountain forest?"
"Please don't say that, I can't stand snakes and ghosts."
"Look at this shabby place, a school? Who would come here?"
"Exactly, and where are we staying?"
Each person voiced their disdain.
Wei Shuya was the one who complained the most.
Until a man appeared, the celebrities all shut up, their attitudes changing drastically.
"Mr. Wei, this place is too dilapidated."
"Yes, Mr. Wei, we risked our lives to record this program, shouldn't we be given a decent place to stay?"
The girls called him "President Wei" in sweet, delicate voices, a stark contrast to their earlier complaints.
Wei Xu was dressed very formally in a suit, with regular features and a appearance that was no less than that of his idol. He even bore a resemblance to Wei Shuya.
Wei Shuya asked, "Brother, why did you come again?"
"I'm worried about you. Come back with me later." Wei Xu said, glancing around to see that there were no other cars besides theirs and the production crew's. He asked, "Weren't there supposed to be a mystical arts teacher and an exorcist? Where are they?"
Wei Shuya shook her head. "The director said he'd be here in a bit."
“I heard that the mentors this time are from the Mu family. I’ve heard of the Mu family. I have a friend who married into a wealthy family. Her husband went bankrupt before, but after he invited someone from the Mu family to come and help him, he has been on a meteoric rise ever since. It’s amazing.”
"Yeah, and that Mu Yu, wasn't he super popular before?"
"I know, I know. He's handsome and capable too. His science video has been going viral on my WeChat Moments."
The girls started chatting again, one after another.
Wearing a sun hat and black sunglasses, Mu Tiantian's light clothing accentuated her perfect figure. Carrying a large toolbox, she walked towards the makeshift rest shed.
Wei Xu noticed Mu Tiantian; she had a good figure and fair skin. Even though he couldn't see her face because of the sun hat and sunglasses, he felt that she must be very beautiful in real life.
He walked over to Mu Tiantian, somewhat solicitously, "Miss, let me help you."
Mu Tiantian adjusted her hat and glanced at Wei Xu. He was in good shape, but his complexion showed signs of excessive indulgence and he looked quite weak.
She smiled and said, "No need, this is too heavy."
Wei Xu got excited when he heard this. She was doubting his abilities. Was he not as good as a woman as her?
It's just a box.
“How heavy can a box be? You seem to be lifting it quite easily.” Wei Xu ignored her wishes and started lifting it.
Mu Tiantian frowned slightly and let go the moment he touched the handle.
With a loud thud, the box landed on the ground, kicking up dust that nearly hit Wei Xu's leather shoes.
At this moment, the director wanted to come over to help, but Mu Tiantian shook her head at him.
She looked at Wei Xu and smiled politely, "Sorry, my hand slipped. I'll leave it to you then."
Hearing her sweet voice and her cherry-red lips, Wei Xu was instantly aroused by her desire to conquer.
His relaxed smile froze completely the moment he lifted the suitcase with force.
Five minutes later...
Even with both hands, Wei Xu could only lift it a little bit, and the box fell down in less than a second.
Mu Tiantian couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Sir, if you're not quite up to it, let me do it."
"No need, I...I will definitely...help you...take it over..." Wei Xu gritted his teeth, and the words he uttered were squeezed out from between his teeth with all his might.
If he can't lift it, he'll lose face big time.
Wei Shuya, unable to bear it any longer, walked over and said in a rather unfriendly tone, "Is there a mechanism in your box?"
Her two or three celebrity family members also came along.
"Hey lady, do you even know who he is? How dare he play tricks on people?" one of the girls chimed in, her attitude extremely rude, giving the impression of someone bullying someone else.
They are young and lack manners.
Mu Tiantian remained calm and smiled, saying, "The quality of your company's artists needs improvement."
"Hey, who are you calling rude?!" The girl got angry at what she said.
Wei Xu felt even more humiliated by their commotion and scolded them, "Get out of my way, don't bother me."
Seeing this, Wei Shuya had no choice but to shut up and stand a little further away.
"Sister Shuya, what's so great about her being just a staff member? We'll have to teach her a lesson later."
The artist's complaints reached Mu Tiantian's ears word for word.
She'll remember this person; she'll have to "teach her a lesson" on the show.
Wei Xu was still struggling to lift the suitcase.
After a while, several childish voices rang out, "Mommy."
Hearing the voice, Mu Tiantian turned around with surprise and delight. She took off her hat and sunglasses, squatted down, and hugged them. "Can Can, Shuo Shuo, Yao Yao, what brings you here?"
"Dad brought us here." The three little dumplings have the same face, but one of them is adorable with pigtails and a pink dress, while the other two have short hair styled and look quite handsome.
"Come here, Mommy will give you a kiss." Mu Tiantian gave each child a lip print on their cheek.
"You have a child?" Wei Xu didn't mention the suitcase again, his tone sounding somewhat accusatory.
These are triplets, whose facial features seem to be cut from the same mold as hers, but their eyes are all blue.
Mu Tiantian looked up at him, somewhat puzzled, "Sir, is there a problem with me having a child?"
Wei Xu paused in breath when he saw the face behind the sunglasses. She was so beautiful, and her figure didn't look like she had ever given birth.
He couldn't help but swallow hard. He had never tried married women before, but he should be able to get this woman by spending some money.
Just as Wei Xu was staring at her in a daze, a sharp pain suddenly shot through the instep of his foot, and he couldn't help but scream, "Ah!"
The heavy box slammed down on his feet.
"Sorry, it was a slip of the hand." A cold, sharp voice rang out.
Wei Xu was about to unleash a torrent of curses when he saw who it was. He could only swallow his anger and greeted them with a smile, "President Huo, it's alright."
Huo Jixiu's company has developed rapidly in recent years, and no other company in the country can compare with it.
Wei Xu absolutely could not offend them. Only then did he notice that the children's eyes were exactly the same blue as Huo Jixiu's.
Therefore, this woman is his wife.
He's really unlucky at this time.
Inside the rest shed, the group started chatting again.
"Is this Mrs. Huo, Mu Tiantian? What's her background?"
"It seems like I was sold when I was a child, my adoptive parents were arrested, and I grew up on my own."
"Isn't this the real-life Cinderella? She really rose to prominence and became a phoenix. No wonder she's so arrogant."
"Say less. I heard she knows some kind of magic. Be careful she doesn't mess with you."
"There will be other mystical arts masters around. The Mu family doesn't care how big their family business is. They can afford to offend anyone. If Mu Tiantian dares to make any trouble, we'll find Mu Yu. He can definitely deal with her."
"I heard she can also write songs and sing."
"Pshaw, who knows if she even wrote that song..."
Wei Xu limped back and, hearing the group gossiping, warned them, "Say less, or you'll regret it if you anger the Huo family."
The group reluctantly shut their mouths, glancing contemptuously at Mu Tiantian. They then saw Huo Jixiu carrying a suitcase in one hand and putting his arm around her waist with the other, chatting and laughing as he walked toward the director.
Mu Tiantian held the hands of three children, the big hand holding the little hand, the family was very happy.
The others watched with a mixture of jealousy and envy...
Once everyone had arrived, the recording of the program began.
The entire Mu family came to this variety show, and the entire production team treated them like VIPs.
The Mu family officially announced that Mu Tiantian is Mu Yu's younger sister.
Few people know about the family reunion; only those within the circle who are familiar with the Mu family know about it.
People in this industry rarely share personal information, so the outside world doesn't know much about them. After all, they're not in the entertainment industry, so news doesn't spread as quickly.
Now, Mu Yu also wants to take advantage of this variety show to officially announce their relationship, hoping to give Mu Tiantian the greatest support in establishing a school.
Those celebrities who had previously been sarcastic towards Mu Tiantian suddenly changed their attitude, apologizing and trying to please her.
Wei Shuya's expression was very unpleasant, and she looked at Mu Tiantian as if she had some kind of grudge. However, this was only when no one was paying attention in private. On the surface, she treated Mu Tiantian in the same ingratiating manner as she did with everyone else.
The so-called human nature is fully embodied in these individuals.
They were very cooperative during the recording; apart from a few artists getting injured, no one's life was in danger.
The variety show received a very positive response as soon as it aired.
The place where the variety show was filmed was just a training ground for students, not the actual campus where they studied.
When people see the actual school environment, many will think of this school.
However, Mu Tiantian has conditions for accepting students. Otherwise, it would be a waste of resources if someone doesn't have the talent or ability to take this path. To put it bluntly, it would be a death sentence.
Finally, Mu Tiantian's esoteric arts school was officially established and continued to develop, gradually establishing branches throughout the country.
The number of people who know esoteric arts has increased rapidly.
Finally, as she grew old, the world rankings stabilized completely.
This time, she doesn't have to work overtime anymore...
