Chapter 517: The Favorite of the Entertainment Circle (36)
[Host, look at this]
The Little White Cat System brought out a virtual screen for Qiao Xi. Now Qiao Xi had nothing to do in her spare time, so she basically just watched the screen to observe the developments on the side of the heroine Lan Lujie.
From her perspective, the heroine is Lan Lujie, the original heroine Qu Ning.
From Lan Lujie's perspective.
The heroine is Qu Ning, there is no original heroine.
The current storyline is similar to the first life that Lan Lujie received, but Qu Ning's way of taking advantage of the popularity has changed a little.
But in general.
Qu Ning followed the story that Lan Lujie had received. After having a child with Xiang Yuan, she began to enter the entertainment industry. With Xiang Yuan's help, she began to rise step by step by occasionally riding on Lan Lujie's popularity.
Then.
When Lan Lujie framed Qu Ning out of jealousy.
The female lead Qu Ning's counterattack made the public see her true face, and Lan Lujie fell from grace. From then on, she was banned and hidden, and the former movie queen became a bystander.
Later, the supporting actress Lan Lujie lived a humble life.
I spent my whole life apologizing but still couldn't get forgiveness.
After Lan Lujie was killed by her, the heroine Qu Ning successfully stepped on Lan Lujie to become the new film queen. Together with the film emperor Xiang Yuan, the two happily walked hand in hand.
It was later exposed.
In fact, the two people are married.
When the public learned about this, they were in an uproar and sent their best wishes. Xiang Yuan then took advantage of the situation and gave Qu Ning a romantic wedding, and they became a sweet couple that everyone envied.
This is the plot that Lan Lujie saw.
This is also the first version of the plot that Qiao Xi received. However, the tension in Qiao Xi's world is based on the second version of the plot.
This is the world where Lan Lujie takes revenge.
And the second version of the plot content.
The story is about Lan Lujie, who is bound to the system and travels through time for revenge. She and her rival, the male protagonist, sweetly exchange tsundere arguments. In fact, they gradually develop feelings for each other and are unwilling to admit it until later on.
At this stage.
It should be that after Lan Lujie was framed by Qu Ning, she immediately released evidence to strongly slap the original heroine in the face, making the original heroine a shameless newcomer who was trying to gain popularity.
Whitewash and reverse in one fell swoop.
Then, because she had a child with Xiang Yuan, she was able to use public pressure to force Xiang Yuan to come forward and make a statement.
otherwise.
If the male protagonist continues to remain silent, his career will be ruined.
The plot development from now on should be that Lan Lujie and Qu Ning compete with each other in a battle of wits and courage, and Lan Lujie will eventually defeat Qu Ning, forcing Qu Ning to be willing to remain unknown behind the scenes, instead of being able to enter the entertainment industry like now.
key link.
It was here that Qu Ning entered the entertainment industry.
In the story of Lan Lujie that Qiao Xi saw, Lan Lujie actively completed the task and successfully prevented Qu Ning from entering the entertainment industry. But now, for some reason, Lan Lujie seems not to be so enthusiastic about the task.
Because she didn't stop it.
So Qu Ning entered the entertainment industry, and just like the first version of the story, she debuted at the opportune moment when actress Lan Lujie was being criticized. She was also very motivated and hardworking, and publicly stated that she was here to chase Xiang Yuan and to be closer to her idol.
And before that.
The only one who can bind sales popularity in this way is Lan Lujie.
Apart from Lan Lujie and Qu Ning, the movie emperor Xiang Yuan has never been paired with any female star. Before meeting these two people, he had always been known as the most dedicated movie emperor with zero scandals.
That's why.
There is a contrast between the two women who are both popular for bundled sales.
People always take out Qu Ning involuntarily.
Compared with Lan Lujie, who is now full of negative news and can’t be cleared.
The more you compare, the more you sigh.
What does it mean to judge the superior from the inferior? Look at how dazzling that actress was in the past, but in the end, she still got herself killed. Wasn't she greedy?
Look at this new female star. Although she just debuted not long ago, she is so hardworking and motivated.
It's like heaven and earth.
Lan Lujie? Oh, forget it. As expected, when people become famous, they become arrogant.
With this comparison, various press releases about Qu Ning and Lan Lujie have emerged. Originally, Qu Ning's fame was limited to younger audiences. After all, older people don't pay much attention to these entertainment news.
But Lan Lujie is different.
Even if no one knows the name Lan Lujie, she has starred in many TV series and movies as a film queen, and there are too many that are remembered and familiar to the public.
People don't necessarily remember her name.
But as long as you see this face, you know it's her.
In terms of popularity, Qu Ning is indeed unable to shake Lan Lujie, who has been a child star and has been famous for a long time.
And now there is a wave of marketing bundling and comparisons everywhere in the press releases.
It also began to make other people gradually familiar with Qu Ning.
In addition, these two women had worked with Xiang Yuan before, and everyone has a gossipy heart. This wave of marketing operations tied to popularity naturally brought a huge amount of traffic to Qu Ning.
[What does the host think? ]
The Little White Cat System turned off the virtual screen and turned to look at Qiao Xi next to it.
"I haven't thought much about it. So far, it doesn't seem to have crashed. But Lan Lujie's system... I think it's showing some signs of collapse."
Qiao Xi collected his thoughts and said this.
The characters are still continuing to interpret the plot according to their respective personality settings, but Lan Lujie's system should not have self-awareness.
And speaking of it.
It's a bit strange. When watching on the virtual screen, you can also see the soul value and so on.
That's the problem.
Lan Lujie's soul value is exactly the same as her system soul value.
Generally speaking.
The system, like a golden finger, was not endowed with a soul. When Qiao Xi looked at the virtual screen before, the 456 system did not record any numerical values related to the soul.
But now I see it again.
As a time traveler, this Lan Lujie traveled back in time to the original owner Lan Lujie. Logically speaking, even with the help of the system, there should be some numerical differences due to the incompatibility and mismatch of the souls.
But she didn't.
It was as if Lan Lujie herself was this person, her soul perfectly integrated into the match and was not rejected by the original owner's body.
It's just relatively speaking.
Lan Lujie's soul is a little weak, but the soul value of the system that has awakened self-awareness seems to be more stable.
[In simple terms?]
The little black cat system scratched its head.
Qiao Xi pondered for a moment. "To put it simply, Lan Lujie didn't travel through time. There's no so-called original owner; she's the film queen herself, Lan Lujie. And according to the newly detected good and evil values, the 456 system's evil value is off the charts, while Lan Lujie's good value is stable."
so.
Qiao Xi sighed, "Remember Prince Axel of the Blood Clan? Normally, his body is controlled by his good aspect. When his emotions or the situation get out of control, his evil aspect takes control."
It's like two extremes.
Coexisting in the same body, but essentially the same person, the same soul.
And Lan Lujie is in this state.
"Didn't the plot premise previously say that she had turned evil? The self-awareness awakened by the 456 system might be her sealed-away dark side. And in order to advance the normal plot, Lan Lujie is an indispensable character, so the kind side is preserved and dominates her body."
but……
Also sealed away were her acting skills, her memories, and everything she had experienced. After all, these were the source of her dark transformation and were closely related.
So this kind-hearted Lan Lujie has a blank memory.
The world trajectory needs to arrange a blank identity for her, shape a new personality, and fulfill the responsibilities of the kind side.
In the process of completing the task.
In fact, it is also in accordance with her black side's desires. The things she buys from the mall are basically all owned by the black side of Lan Lujie. After buying it, it is equivalent to unblocking it, and the good side of Lan Lujie will also own it.
But at the same time.
The more she has, the more it will subtly change the kind-hearted Lan Lujie.
This setting.
In fact, it was similar to Qiao Xi's current situation. She needed to go through each world to repair her body. After all, her current personality was also shaped by the experience of the first world.
She is not the same as she was before she lost her memory.
Qiao Xi's process is to restore herself.
Lan Lujie, on the other hand, is divided into two sides, good and evil, but with the same soul and body. The two different personalities, each possessing independent consciousness, coexist and communicate in the form of a host system.
Others cannot know the existence of the 456 system.
Only Lan Lujie knows.
Even if the 456 system controls the body, it still exists as 'Lan Lujie' and cannot be independent.
[In other words, System 456 represents... uh, the consciousness of Lan Lujie herself, who turns evil later in the story?]
The little black cat system choked.
"Based on the current situation, it is."
Qiao Xi took a sip of tea. This kind of thing wasn't actually that hard to understand. In the novels I'd read before, the story was basically told from the heroine's perspective. So if the heroine thought she was a time traveler, then she was.
But in fact.
As I come into contact with more and more things.
Others say she has amnesia and thinks she's a time traveler. Everyone around her plays along until the heroine herself remembers everything. Once the misunderstanding is resolved, everything ends happily.
Now it seems that this is the routine.
As the 456 system punishes her more and more, her soul will be repeatedly whipped to the point of weakness, and there is a chance that the self-defense mechanism will be triggered.
Naturally, this also awakened the original dark soul of the 456 system, whose emotions had been stifled.
Then.
The emotions gradually deteriorated, and it was no longer a task with a bottom line to post a strategy.
They also began to frequently seize control of their bodies.
She herself is the system. She assigns tasks to herself to do, which not only allows her to enjoy herself but also allows her to rationalize everything.
The more normal Lan Lujie was confused.
But there was nothing I could do with the 456 system, so I could only try my best to ignore this strange feeling and think it was just my own illusion.
In this way, I comfort myself.
Lan Lujie just began to accept all this numbly.
After the 456 system awakened its self-awareness and emotions, it began to lose control, and the heroine herself seemed to be unaware of it.
The Little White Cat System is listening.
I also thought about Lan Lujie's current situation.
System 456 has exceeded its original responsibilities as a system and has begun to interfere with and even seize control of the body.
However, Lan Lujie didn't realize it.
not to mention.
The Little White Cat system itself discovered something strange about the 456 system when it was reviewing the playback data. It was clear that Xiang Yuan had sent people all over the world to look for Lan Lujie after she left.
But I was disheartened when I couldn't find it.
Just married Qu Ning.
However, the 456 system did not tell Lan Lujie about this matter. Even the matter of Xiang Yuan's marriage had to wait until Lan Lujie completed the task and seduced Xiang Yuan.
Two people did it, and then they were done.
Lan Lujie just learned from the 456 system that Xiang Yuan was already married.
Why not say it in advance?
"If it was Lan Lujie's dark side, it would probably feel unwilling. After all, when it was "alive", it failed to attract Xiang Yuan's attention. However, Xiang Yuan fell in love with another side of her that still retained kindness. Compared to what Xiang Yuan did to her in the past..."
It’s quite ironic when you think about it.
In his previous life, he became evil and corrupt because he could not get the love he wanted, and then the rest of his life was ruined by the person he loved deeply.
However, when he regained consciousness again.
But I have to watch helplessly as the person I once loved deeply falls in love with another me.
What was Lan Lujie's original personality?
Don't forget, in the original plot, she was a spoiled, willful young lady with a bad temper. To put it bluntly, she had princess syndrome.
I'm spoiled and I'm also very good.
Such achievements at such a young age.
Naturally, he became arrogant, looked down on everyone, and no longer took others seriously.
[So she looked down on Bai Heng's rental house and the noodles he cooked.]
The Little White Cat System suddenly understood.
When watching the replay, it felt a bit strange. Lan Lujie was able to eat it. Why was the system so rebellious?
turn out to be.
Because Lan Lujie now has no memories of the past, and the memories implanted happen to be of a rather miserable life experience, she will not dislike it.
But at that time, self-awareness was not restored.
However, the system possesses the memories of the evil Lan Lujie herself, and subconsciously finds it unacceptable to that kind of environment.
Abbreviation.
The princess syndrome has struck.
[I'll record it.] The Little White Cat System pondered for a moment and then began to record the relevant values.
The little black cat system next to it was not interested.
Instead, he raised his paw, pointed at the virtual screen on the other side connected to the stand-in screen, and turned to look at Qiao Xi next to him.
[Baozi, you should go back, someone is coming]
Qiao Xi, who had just opened the bag of potato chips, was stunned when she saw a strange man opening the door and walking in on the virtual screen.
She could only sigh slightly.
Cut off your consciousness from the space.
When Yu Jinnian just entered the room, he saw Qiao Xi sitting on the bed in her nightgown with a dazed expression, hugging her quilt in a daze.
Actually.
He saw from the surveillance video that the girl had been in this state for some time.
I don’t know what Qiao Xi is doing.
Yu Jinnian had just finished his work and had some free time, and he had observed Qiao Xi for a long time. After much deliberation, he finally came here.
The steady sound of leather shoes falling paused slightly.
Qiao Xi had just regained consciousness when she looked up to see the calm, stern, and serious man before her. He exuded the dignity and nobility of a superior, but his deep, dark eyes were as cold as a pond, filled with a sinister and sinister intent.
not to be trifled.
The moment I reacted, these words automatically appeared in my mind.
Qiao Xi also showed a vigilant expression at this time.
I have been out of business for so long.
If she hadn't been in Yu Jinnian's base all the time, she would have almost forgotten that she was kidnapped.
and.
It's still the fifth night when the blackening value is off the charts, and there are two risks in the strategy that has already begun to realize some subtle changes.
She waited so long that grass almost grew on her.
Yu Jinnian was indeed able to endure for so long and still have the leisure to pay attention to his opponent's movements. However, Ce couldn't get any information from him, so until now.
Yu Jinnian then thought of changing his strategy slightly.
I also plan to take the initiative to reveal some information to the other party.
He wanted to know how Ce, that freak, felt when he found out that Qiao Xi was in his hands. Was it the same feeling as when he stole his billion-dollar order?
Yu Jinnian in his spare time.
I came to see how Qiao Xi was doing, and by the way, I was also considering how to treat her and maximize her value.
Now as it stands.
Qiao Xi, who is so lively and energetic, is really the perfect fit. Yu Jinnian came to a conclusion after just a little thought. He looked at the girl in front of him who was wary of him.
He took a few strides and arrived in front of Qiao Xi's bed.
He looked down at her condescendingly and asked calmly, "Are you Ce's woman?"
Perhaps she didn't expect this strange man to be so direct.
The girl was stunned.
Her body stiffened slightly, as if she hadn't yet reacted to his words.
but.
When Yu Jinnian saw her expression, he lowered his eyes and added indifferently.
"Whether it's true or not, the fact that you two are around him means your relationship is pretty close."
Then.
The man in front of him raised his chin slightly, and stared at Qiao Xi with his cold eyes. There was a chill in his eyes, without any extra emotion when he looked at Qiao Xi.
That look.
It was like he was using a prop, but what he said next made the girl stiffen as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Take it off."
A low, magnetic and steady voice sounded, and the irresistible tough attitude and tone like an order did not give Qiao Xi any chance to refuse.
“…”
The girl was silent, clutching the hem of her nightgown with trembling hands, and lowering her head slightly in silent protest, clearly unwilling.
"Do you want to live or die?"
The man wasn't surprised by her reaction, but Yu Jinnian was a straightforward person. He hated people who dithered, even though he knew Qiao Xi was afraid, nervous, or something else.
But so what?
What does this person's mood have to do with him?
Yu Jinnian didn't like his time being wasted meaninglessly by people who were always nagging. So when the girl hesitated and struggled, she protested with silence.
The pistol is loaded.
The cold muzzle of the gun was pressed against the girl's temples, and in an instant, a strong murderous intent and a sense of threat suddenly erupted. Her life was directly threatened, and the man in front of her didn't care about her, as if he was a little unhappy.
They'll shoot at any time.
Even now, a gun could go off accidentally if you're not careful.
It's the moment when life is threatened.
Perhaps Qiao Xicai realized that this was not a peaceful country, and not everyone was reasonable and knew how to abide by the rules. In foreign countries, gun ownership was legal.
so……
Until now.
She felt something cold against her temples, as if the law could take her life at any moment. At this moment, her heart, which had been struggling and hesitant, quickly collapsed in fear.
The girl seemed completely frightened.
She also had it when she was studying abroad.
But those were just clubs or wealthy enthusiasts who got together and went to the shooting range to have fun.
Yu Jinnian looked at her with a cold gaze.
The man's thin lips were pressed into a seamless line, adding a sharp edge to his otherwise cold and inhuman expression. His scrutinizing gaze lowered him, as if assessing the value of a commodity.
At the same time, it is also a silent urging.
She couldn't afford any more hesitation.
The girl trembled as she raised her hand to touch her collar, slowly and carefully untying the bow she had tied. She was as cautious as if she were unwrapping a gift, but her actions caught Yu Jinnian's eye.
But it made the man frown slightly.
He seemed dissatisfied with her deliberate delaying behavior.
"Too slow, a waste of time." The man opened his thin lips slightly and uttered a few syllables with a hint of dissatisfaction.
The pistol was placed on the table nearby.
Yu Jinnian turned around, grabbed Qiao Xi's slender wrist, and pulled her hand away.
The man leaned forward.
His eyes, shrouded in coldness, were devoid of any emotion. To him, this seemed like a simple use of props. It wasn't worth investing too much emotion in, and Qiao Xi's slow motion was dawdling.
It really drained his patience.
Yu Jinnian was disgusted by her deliberate delay.
So he wasn't too gentle with her.
As the girl was being held down by her wrists, tears welled up in her eyes, dripping onto the pillow, gradually soaking the pure white pillowcase.
"Didn't Ce tell you that he's not good in that area? It's really unfair to you to be the woman of a useless man like him."
When Yu Jinnian noticed she was crying.
Finally at this time, he raised his eyes to look at the girl and gave her a look of mercy.
only.
Before Qiao Xi could answer, he lowered his eyelids and glanced indifferently at the girl's skin that was as white and delicate as snow.
He had been through it after all.
Young people are full of energy and easily get carried away by things like love.
Men and women who have experienced the complexity of human hearts and have some experience in love.
I will do it when the love is strong.
It's become the norm, and even more so after entering society. Sometimes it's just to satisfy physical needs, sometimes it's out of affection and love. In other words, there aren't many who are truly clean.
It’s better to say.
It would be strange if a man or woman with a little experience was still a virgin.
This is the norm in modern society.
There is only something we can do for someone like Ce who is sick.
That's why Yu Jinnian wanted to possess Qiao Xi, because she was Ce's woman. If she wasn't, but was just a close relative, then it wouldn't matter.
No matter what.
Both can serve to humiliate the other party.
So when Yu Jinnian touched her and saw Qiao Xi's tears, he felt even more confused. He had never met such a troublesome woman. Doing it once was fine, and doing it twice was fine too.
Just do it with another person.
He was busy and unhurried, saying calmly, "You have experience too, and you've tasted the bitterness of it before. Why are you crying? What are you complaining about?"
It's not a noble place either.
Unmarried, had relationship.
We're all here for fun, then. Since we've already done it, why bother being so fussy with him now? Just lie back and enjoy it, and he'll keep the video evidence after he's done it.
A portion of it can be intercepted and sent to the policy.
This is a great gift.
