The Duke flew back to Continent O at night. Before he left, he called Anna.

He told her not to forget to go to the hospital to see her brother when she was better. After all, her brother was injured because he saved her.

Anna suppressed her disgust and agreed, but she would not go.

For the next few days, Su Ji had at least three hours of calligraphy cla.s.ses every night.

The finals of the calligraphy compet.i.tion would be held next Monday, and the days of preparation before the exam were getting shorter and shorter.

The news of Su Ji and Lian Zits cla.s.s was not spread. The students were very tight-lipped this time, but the day they met at the mall cafe was taken by netizens and posted online.

There were four people in the photo. Two of them were popular actors of “Qingqiu Tactics”, one was a movie king, and the last was a s.e.x icon.

This photo had been circulating on the Internet for several days, and the comments were divided.

It was mainly because of Lian Zi.

Those who liked her really liked her. They said that before Su Ji was announced to play Xuanji, Lian Zi was the actress they thought of. They said that she had good skin, a hot figure, a straightforward personality, and was beautiful in every situation.

But those who didn’t like her really didn’t like her. Their words were filled with sarcasm and insults.

Scandals, dark history, and so on from ten years ago were dug out. They all said that Su Ji and the others should not mingle with such people. It was too degrading.

However, such comments only accounted for one-third of the total. It was not to the point where the company needed to make a clarification. Under such circ.u.mstances, if they said something, the netizens would bring up stuff from Lian Zi’s early years. After the meeting, Blue Whale decided that the best way to deal with it was to ignore it. When Lian Zi had new works, the public’s attention would naturally be diverted.

Su Ji rarely read the news on the Internet. Every time she went to Blue Whale, she would meet Lian Zi, who was still the same as usual.

She never looked at her with prejudice because of what the netizens said.

Lian Zi looked carefree on the surface, but she remembered who was good to her.

On Sunday, which was also the day before the finals of the calligraphy compet.i.tion, Su Ji went to the set of the Qingqiu Arts for a meeting with the actors.

The main actors met each other, and most of them were unfamiliar faces. Among them, Nan Miaomiao, who played the female lead, and Ji Xi, who played the blind girl, were the ones Su Ji was most familiar with.

Many online fans were unhappy that Ji Xi was not selected as the female lead. Director Jin Fengze really liked Ji Xi as an actress and had always hoped to have the opportunity to work with her. After a few rounds of discussion, Jin Fengze gave the character of the blind girl to Ji Xi.

There were not many scenes, but it was very challenging, which was exactly what Ji Xi wanted.

It was still early after the actors’ meet-and-greet. Ji Xi had to go to the Public Welfare Center for the Blind in the afternoon to do volunteer work and experience the life of a blind person to help with filming. She informed Su Ji and the others before leaving in a car.

Nan Miaomiao finally managed to catch Su Ji and did not want to let her go. She asked her to have lunch with her.

Su Ji did not really want to go, but Nan Miaomiao said that Lu Shang would go too, so she agreed.

Moreover, tomorrow was the calligraphy compet.i.tion. Tonight was also to let her students relax and not have cla.s.ses.

Nan Miaomiao knew of a very delicious barbecue restaurant. Su Ji went with her.

But wouldn’t she be a third wheel if she went there alone?

On the way there, she received calls from Lian Zi and Anna, so she asked both of them.

When Nan Miaomiao heard that even Lian Zi was coming, she immediately took out a lot of makeup tools from the back of the nanny van, even though Lu Shang had already explained to her several times what happened that day.

An hour later, everyone gathered at the barbecue restaurant.

Su Ji was the only one who knew everyone and was responsible for the introduction.

“Lu Shang, Nan Miaomiao, Lian Zi.” “Anna, a foreigner.”

What a simple introduction!

It would have been fine if she didn’t mention the winner of the Best Actress Award.

A foreigner?

The group got to know each other briefly. The waiter led them to a large round table behind a screen.

This shop was filled with people every day. There were no private rooms, only screens.

However, it was easy to b.u.mp into celebrities in the business district, so no one minded.

This time, they met and realized that Lu Shang was more attentive to Nan

Miaomiao. He followed behind and pulled out a chair for her. Lian Zi patted Lu Shang and straightened her body to tease him. “Why do you like that skinny one? You should consider others too-”

Lu Shang smiled politely. “I’m sorry, but I like the skinny one.”

Nan Miaomiao listened on the side and felt quite happy. A few seconds later, she reacted. “Who are you calling a skinny one?!””

Lian Zi laughed so hard that she couldn’t straighten her back.

She couldn’t tell what state Nan Miaomiao and Lu Shang were in right now, but they should be…sort of dating.

Anyway, compared to the time when Nan Miaomiao treated Lu Shang as her best friend, it was definitely a leap.

At first, Anna was quite reserved because she didn’t know anyone. However, when she got close to Su Ji, Nan Miaomiao glared at her.

However, with Su Ji guiding her, she slowly got used to it. She also knew that Nan Miaomiao actually had a soft heart.

Although she glared at her, she still gave her the same amount of meat.

When Anna came, she was carrying a small crossbody bag. It was translucent and candy-colored. It was a bag from the brand that Su Ji had previously endorsed. If she bought it, she could get Su Ji’s autograph. Anna bought it with her father’s card.

Every time she saw Su Ji, she would carry it on her back.

But…Su Ji did not even recognize that she was the spokesperson for the bag..

The meat was cooking, and the fragrance of the charred meat spread out. Everyone chatted and drank beer.

Anna sat next to Su Ji, and her small bag was placed near her.

Su Ji laughed at Nan Miaomiao’s lame jokes. She lowered her eyes and noticed that the phone screen in Anna’s bag had lit up. Because the bag was translucent, she could see it.

It was an unsaved number.

Anna didn’t seem to notice.

Su Ji reminded her, “there’s a call for you.”

Anna paused and saw the number through the bag. Her face turned pale. She didn’t answer it and covered it with her hand. “Yes, it’s a sales call.”

‘ I see.” Su Ji did not say anything and glanced over. The call was hung up because it had been too long.

The lock screen showed the number of calls. There were five missed calls from the same number…

“Anna, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Lian Zi could tell that something was wrong with her expression.

“N-nothing,” Anna reached into her bag and pressed the power b.u.t.ton a few times in a hurry.

After a short while of vibration, she turned off her mobile phone and let out a breath.

Su Ji retracted her gaze and closed her eyes. The string of numbers flashed in her mind….
