"Warm Light in the Palm" - Who Will Redeem the Entertainment Godmother (Part 9...)
Money makes the world go round.
Ma Tingting has loved pretty things since she was a child, and she also has some talent in drawing. When she was young, she could draw people on TV very realistically, which made Ma Cixin very proud.
But people from a small county town like the Shen family, which is a blend of urban and rural areas, don't really have the awareness to cultivate hobbies. So Ma Tingting just doodles on paper, and you know what? Her drawings are getting better and better.
Qiu Yi bought her a painting set, which made Ma Tingting very happy. With this, she wondered if she could become an online artist and a celebrity.
A ten-year-old child forgets things in the blink of an eye, and calls out "sister" sweeter than anyone else, instantly restoring the close bond from childhood.
Such a large digital screen, and quite heavy, was carried on Ma Tingting's back without hesitation. She also took the initiative to help Qiu Tianyi carry the computer that Qiu Tianyi bought for Shen Junjiao.
Qiu Yi bought the computer and sent it to Shen Junjiao.
Shen Junjiao studied civil engineering in college, a peculiar major that ended with the campus recruitment announcement that female applicants were not accepted.
Although this major is extremely unfriendly to girls, Shen Junjiao, as a son of a small county, has an extreme desire to integrate into the big city. During her four years of university, she achieved excellent grades and participated in many activities, creating a very impressive resume. She also has good speaking skills and finally managed to get into a design institute.
Getting into a design institute is an excellent career path for civil engineering students, but it's said that the work is so busy that you feel like you're going to die, with people staying up all night revising drawings, and in a few years, you might go bald.
Shen Junjiao is a designer, so she has extremely high requirements for computer configuration. Her previous computer was also getting old and would malfunction from time to time. When it malfunctioned, she felt like smashing the computer.
Just as he was planning to get a new computer, Qiu Yi bought the one she had been longing for, and Shen Junjiao immediately sent her a series of congratulatory messages.
Ah! My dear niece! So filial! So incredibly filial!
As soon as the funds arrived, Qiu Yi began paying off various debts, and for a time everyone collectively forgot about her childhood.
Who said she was unruly when she was little? It's good that she was unruly! Kids need to be a little unruly to grow up to be successful!
With money, any relationship can be made sweet and harmonious. After settling everything, and with plenty of time to spare, Qiu Yi suggested, "Let's go see a movie."
Ma Tingting loves watching movies. Although her small county town has a cinema, the selection of films is nowhere near that of big cities. Since she has come all the way to the city, she naturally wants to see some movies that she has been wanting to see for a long time.
Just as she was excitedly picking out movies, Qiu Tianyi pulled out two tickets: "I've already bought them."
Ma Tingting trusted Qiu Tianyi's taste and leaned over to look: "What is it!"
After receiving the ticket, his smile vanished instantly: "Why is it this one? Wasn't this one ridiculed online? And there's even some scandal involving the female lead."
Qiu Tianyi looked at her expressionlessly: "I'm treating, are you still picky?"
Ma Tingting: ...
Oh well……
The two walked into the movie theater and immediately sensed the atmosphere of a bad movie. The entire theater was empty except for the two of them.
No talking is allowed in movie theaters so as not to disturb others. Now that they have two tickets and have the whole theater to themselves, there's no one else around. Just out of habit, Ma Tingting lowered her voice and said, "Can I play with your new phone for a while?"
Qiu Tianyi refused without hesitation: "Watch it properly, and give me your review when you get back."
Then he looked down at his phone and started typing furiously.
Ma Tingting: ...
She definitely wants her own cell phone someday!
The movie started playing, and Qiu Tianyi put down her phone and watched attentively.
As the movie played, Qiu Yi's smile gradually turned downwards. She gripped the back of her chair, and the passage of time suddenly became very clear, as if it would never end.
That was a truly impactful hour and a half.
Qiu Yi looked as if she were in prison, while Ma Tingting beside her seemed engrossed in watching.
I initially thought it was going to be a terrible movie, but now it seems like just an ordinary period martial arts romance film.
Aside from the female lead's beggar-like appearance and the lack of any of the beauty that fans have been praising, the plot is haphazard, filming wherever it pleases, and after fighting for a long time, it's impossible to tell who is who or what they're fighting for.
Everything else is fine. Sometimes I even laugh at a few funny jokes. It's not as bad as people say online!
Ma Tingting enjoyed the film very much and was even interested in exchanging her thoughts with Qiu Tianyi. Qiu Tianyi looked at her and suddenly said, "I want to work in the film industry."
Ma Tingting was interrupted by her and looked at her innocently: "Why?"
Qiu Yi looked back at her: "Because I felt that this industry was a good way to make money."
Ma Tingting: ...
Why are you looking at her then...?
At first, I thought Qiu Yi was joking, but after she got home, she really packed her things and went to the city to prepare for the art exam.
For people in a conservative small county, abandoning literature for art is quite shocking, but Qiu Tianyi did not encounter any opposition because she did not tell her family at all. It was not because she was afraid that her family would worry, but because she did not take these people seriously.
I packed a few changes of clothes in my backpack and boarded the high-speed train to the city.
This place can probably be considered her hometown. Although she and her mother don't even have a permanent house in this city, all her valuable childhood memories are here.
On a whim, she returned to the old neighborhood where she lived as a child, only to find that the building was still being rented out.
The best film school at X University has already finished its entrance exams for this year and won't reopen until March next year. I'll definitely need to rent a place.
Such houses are generally more suitable for long-term family rentals, but she only wants to rent for a year and live on campus after finishing her exams. She doesn't know if the landlord will agree to that.
I didn't have high hopes, but to my surprise, as soon as the person on the other end of the phone heard that she wanted to rent a house, they immediately agreed and told her to wait there while they delivered the keys to her!
Qiu Tianyi: ...
Is something wrong?
The original landlord, however, gave her no chance to back out. He drove straight over and enthusiastically introduced his house to her.
Qiu Yi looked around and found that everything was pretty much the same as she remembered. The landlady was the same one as before. Even though this place was a bit out of the way, was it really that hard to rent?
The homeowner was utterly devastated.
In recent years, the old house has been plagued by bad luck. First, the tenant in her room died in an accident at the factory, and then the tenant in the next room committed suicide by cutting his wrists.
The tenant next door had a young son who spent a whole day with his mother's body before being discovered. After he was taken out, he stopped crying.
The boy's father sent people to pick him up. According to the description, his father should be quite wealthy, as several cars came and he even bought the house next door.
Now she's the only one who's unlucky. Two murders have occurred in quick succession, and the whole building is rumored to have bad feng shui. Since the crime scene is right there, she's in even worse shape.
Moreover, that woman committed suicide while wearing a red dress, and she harbored great resentment, reportedly never leaving.
The landlord himself was a little uneasy, so he consulted a feng shui master who pointed out the flaw in the design.
The other tenants ran away as soon as they heard about it. Of course, they knew there were no ghosts in the world; they simply didn't want to rent anymore!
The house next door was bought by the father of the deceased's child, but she couldn't find a place to rent or sell it.
The house was perfectly fine, but it looked like it was in ruins. As soon as they heard someone wanted to rent it, they rushed over without stopping.
However, fearing that the tenant would cause trouble if she found out the truth, he subtly mentioned what happened back then and asked her if she cared.
Qiu Yi didn't care, of course. She was one of the people involved. She just didn't expect that the aunt who lived next door to her back then would commit suicide.
In her memory, when she was a child, she would secretly bring food to the boy next door because he looked so pitiful. Her mother was a very, very bad woman.
Now that I'm older, I realize that every time that woman broke down and screamed, it was perhaps her last struggle in this world.
Qiu Yi felt that life was the most precious thing in the world and couldn't understand why anyone would give up their life. But if you give up the most precious thing, the pain must be beyond imagination.
Unfortunately, she was too young at the time and could only judge a person's character by their appearance, failing to realize the despair hidden beneath that woman's terrifying exterior.
Returning to familiar ground, Qiu Yi unexpectedly received additional information, prompting her to sigh with a sense of profound change.
However, this unexpected event also brought a benefit: the rent was very cheap, and she was even considering renting it for a longer period.
Qiu Yi carefully considered the matter, smiled as she saw the landlord off, and then proceeded to arrange her check-in.
The house looks like it hasn't been lived in for a long time, so it needs a thorough cleaning. I guess many of the appliances won't work, and the internet will need to be reconnected.
Qiu Yi is naturally lazy, so it's impossible for her to do any work. She simply hired a part-time worker, being rich and capricious.
Problems that can be solved with money will not be done by myself. When Qiu Yi comes back from shopping in the autumn, everything will be in good order.
She took out her phone and ordered takeout, and only then did she start looking up what was required for a director's entrance exam.
Don't ask her why she dared to apply for art school without any artistic background; the answer is simply that she was willful.
If Qiu Hui's soul were still in this house, she would definitely be clutching her chest and screaming.
What are you trying to do?! Can't you just go to university and find a good job?!
The system clapped its hands in approval, expressing its gratitude for the host's capriciousness for the first time!
The original intention of making Ye Xiqing lose her memory was to change her environment and reshape her from scratch.
As a result, the system only realized that having no memories was equivalent to having no scripts after the completely unaware "Qiu Qiuyi" took away all the childhood scripts.
Originally, when there was a script, Ye Xiqing would feel hostile towards the male lead every time they met, and the storyline would also follow the main plot.
Now that she has no memory, she can do whatever she wants!
Judging from the previous worlds, Ye Xiqing had no interest in the entertainment industry whatsoever, and the system had no idea how to guide Ye Xiqing along the main storyline in a natural state.
Unexpectedly, when it was in a state of utter distress, Ye Xiqing actually took the initiative to apply to an art school!
The system has never been so proactive in protecting Ye Xiqing. Go ahead and take the exam with confidence. Even if you don't show up on the day of the exam, I can still make sure you pass!
This is a novel set in the entertainment industry. The Huo family is the most powerful force in the entire entertainment industry. Anyone who enters the industry will inevitably have interactions with the male lead, who is the villain.
For so long, what has been bothering the system is that no matter what, Ye Xiqing can always find a flawless set of fallacies to launch a powerful attack against it.
What if Ye Xiqing met the male lead in a natural, undisturbed state?
The male lead, Cheng Yanxi, is truly a flawless warm-hearted man. Not only has he never hurt the female lead, but he has also been considerate and helpful in guiding her out of her childhood trauma.
Moreover, it's not just warm, but not the kind of warm like central air conditioning. It never shows any kindness to outsiders, but only opens its heart to the female lead.
Although Qiu Yi in this world seems to have lost her childhood trauma, will she really not be moved at all?
Some people in the comments section have already mentioned that the original version of Qing Shen will unlock his memories once his brain is fully developed. They're starting to miss the original Qing Shen.
The system, however, remained motionless, watching Ye Xiqing within the world.
At 18, one's brain is not considered fully developed.
