Shortly after the first episode was recorded, the news that #JiQianDonatesMillionsOfAntiques# went viral.
Director Liu was eating hotpot when he saw the message and almost choked to death on the tripe that went down his throat.
The TV station's superiors quickly sent a congratulatory telegram regarding this matter, but unfortunately, because Qian Huailin had given the gift in full view of everyone, they had no room to cheat.
Moreover, Ji Qian now has the backing of the government, and judging from the government's intentions, they clearly want to establish her as a positive role model for the new era.
With official backing, the usually assertive television station had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill and even had to post on Weibo to help Ji Qian solidify the news story.
"Understanding the Truth" Mystic Science Popularization and Crime Investigation Program v:
Forwarded from @ZijingCityMuseum: "Thank you to Ms. Ji Qian (Metaphysical Promotion Ambassador) for her selfless donation, a significant contribution to the city's archaeological work!"
Xiao Zhen would like to express her heartfelt gratitude to Teacher Ji Qian (Metaphysical Promotion Ambassador) for her selfless donation! Please tune in to the "Into the Truth" program this Saturday at 8 PM for more details.
@GaoLaoZhuangEscapedWildBoar: It's really rare that such an opportunity to gain fame wasn't snatched away by the TV station!
@SleepWithoutYingXuIsNotChangingMyName: Given Sister Qian's style, I suspect the TV station has no idea about this at all.
@I'mDigaInNortheast: Upstairs, you might be right.
@InnocentMotherGorilla: I'm going crazy for Sister Qian!! Ji Qian, you're my goddess!!
@Tomson Dream Girl: Am I the only one who noticed the "Metaphysical Promotion Ambassador" after Sister Qian's ID?
@我佛糍粑: Who understands this? A little-known celebrity I follow suddenly got a government job!
The uproar on Weibo had nothing to do with Ji Qian, because at that moment she was kneeling in the airport restroom, begging Liu Xia:
"Sister Xia, I'm begging you! Please let me stay at your place for two days, I really can't go back!"
Looking at Ji Qian kneeling on the ground, Liu Xia felt a bit disappointed: "Where did your fierce spirit when you were slaying ghosts in the live stream go?"
Ji Qian also felt very wronged when she brought up this matter:
"If they're willing to show up, I can solve the problem with a wave of my hand."
The problem is that they always suddenly appear and scare me, then immediately disappear.
Waaaaah, I'm so scared I'm having a nervous breakdown!
“That’s not right,” Liu Xia frowned, seizing the blind spot in Ji Qian’s words: “I remember you used to be able to catch them.”
"That was before. I can't really sense yin energy yet, and I only recovered my ability to encounter ghosts last month."
"Sister Xia, please let me stay for two days. I promise I'll move back as soon as I've fully recovered!"
Seeing that the topic had circled back to Ji Qian again, Liu Xia had no choice but to confront Ji Qian directly:
"It's not that I don't want you to stay, it's just that it's really inconvenient at my home."
"ah?"
Seeing that Ji Qian still didn't understand, Liu Xia had to be more explicit: "What I mean is, I'm not the only one living in my house right now."
"Ah~" Ji Qian became excited upon hearing this, and no longer caring about pretending to be pitiful, she hurriedly got up from the ground, took Liu Xia's hand, and began to ask:
"Who is it? Male or female? How old? Where do they live? What do they do for a living? Does the headmistress know about this?"
Regarding the previous questions, Liu Xia declined to comment and specifically instructed Ji Qian:
"I haven't told Mom yet, so don't go spreading rumors!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Qian became even more excited and quickly seized the opportunity to make a new request: "Then lend me money to book a hotel room."
"You don't even have enough money for a hotel room?"
Liu Xia looked at Ji Qian in disbelief:
"Didn't I just transfer the money for that web series to you last month? It was a full 60,000 yuan!"
"I deposited 50,000 yuan in a fixed deposit account, and used the remaining 10,000 yuan to pay rent."
Liu Xia was speechless for a moment, looking at Ji Qian's self-righteous attitude:
"Why haven't you changed your habit of depositing money into a fixed-term deposit account as soon as you get it?"
"Oh dear, it's a fine tradition of our orphanage after all. I heard from Xu Qi that his fixed deposits have already exceeded ten million!"
Liu Xia felt suffocated when she thought about her mother's miraculously conservative financial management concepts and her extremely high level of brainwashing.
At this moment, Liu Xia was extremely grateful that she had used all the red envelopes Ji Qian had sent her for investment. Otherwise, Ji Qian might have really ended up in the embarrassing situation of being unable to afford a hotel room after half a lifetime in the industry.
Ji Qian was deeply moved, not expecting that Liu Xia had saved up some money for her. She wanted nothing more than to hug Liu Xia and cry her heart out.
Liu Xia shoved her away with his large, ruthless hand and switched to work mode in an instant:
"Get in the car, I'll take you to the hotel."
"Given your current popularity, if you went to a hotel alone, who knows what kind of news it would cause."
"I...have a following?"
To be honest, Ji Qian has been in the industry for five years now, and this is the first time she has heard this word applied to her.
Seeing Ji Qian's bewildered expression, Liu Xia realized that she hadn't had a chance to let Ji Qian look at her phone along the way.
Liu Xia quickly opened Weibo, brought up Ji Qian's Weibo homepage, pointed to the number of followers, and said to Ji Qian:
"Did you see that? 9.99 million followers! You've gained a lot of followers!"
Looking at the numbers on the screen and then at Liu Xia's excited face, Ji Qian suddenly felt as if she were living in a dream.
It's worth noting that before she participated in the show, she only had 300,000 followers on Weibo, which increased dozens of times in just one week!
Ji Qian felt like she was about to scream, but when she remembered that she was in an airport, she swallowed the scream that was about to come out and instead gripped the doorknob of the restroom next to her.
