Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1803 Old Liang Family Residence, Chasing Her Away (1)

In Song Yanru’s room.

“Yanru, have you gotten used to filming the variety show?” He Liuqing asked considerately from the side.

Song Yanru had been filming and playing little games for the past few days, so she had long relaxed. Except for the fear and trepidation she felt after what happened to Zhou Chengfei on the first night, she was in very good condition. She nodded and said, “I thought the production team would continue with the horror style of the previous seasons, but these few days have been pretty good.” She would be able to return to the capital in two more days. Song Yanru’s right eyelid hadn’t twitched these past few days, so she heaved a sigh of relief.

He Liuqing smiled when she heard Yanru’s words. “Actually, the production team revealed to me earlier that although you’ll play a few horror games during the filming, the main theme is still about everyone staying in the old Liang family residence for five nights. After all, this house is already famous for being haunted. After the show airs, given how famous the Liang family house is, our efforts won’t be for nothing! I also privately asked Director Huang, and it’ll be little horror games for the next few days.”

As soon as He Liuqing said that, Song Yanru’s complexion improved even more. “Really?”

He Liuqing hurriedly nodded. She was quite glad that she hadn’t been willing to offend someone and turn down this offer back then. When this variety show first extended an invitation to them, she had felt that it would be beneficial and harmless for Yanru to take part. He Liuqing had even analyzed the benefits for Yanru, but for some reason, Yanru was determined not to participate in this variety show.

Thinking of the Chi girl whom Yan Ru had brought with her and how close she was to her, He Liuqing couldn’t help but think it was a conspiracy. For example, Yanru was on good terms with the Chi girl, and when this girl found out that Yanru was going to film this show, she deliberately said some things to scare Yanru in order to chase an opportunity to become popular.

The more He Liuqing thought about it, the more she felt that was the case. She forgot that Song Yanru, who had been in this circle for almost 20 years, wasn’t a fool who could be schemed against.

At that moment, He Liuqing made up her mind to persuade Yanru to make the Chi girl leave first. In short, a girl with too many scheming thoughts was really unpleasant, and she couldn’t let Yanru interact with her too much in the future.

While He Liuqing was thinking about how to get Yanru to chase her away, she heard Yanru ask her about Xiao Ying.

He Liuqing’s attention was all on how to chase away the Chi girl, and she didn’t care about Xiao Ying at all as she said perfunctorily, “It’s fine. Her manager has probably found her by now. It’s just that the compensation for the breach of contract is a little high, and she’ll have offended certain people. It probably won’t be easy for her to survive in the entertainment industry in the future. This is the price for a young girl who thinks she can be willful just because she thinks she’s popular. She deserves to be blacklisted!”

Song Yanru had also seen all sorts of things in the industry. If Xiao Ying really breached the contract this time and offended the production team, it would indeed be difficult for her to survive in the future. However, this matter had nothing to do with her, so she didn’t say much.

Looking at how it was almost time to rest, Song Yanru wanted to send her manager away.

Sister He said, “By the way, Yanru, what are you going to do with that young lady whom you brought for the next two days? Are you still planning to bring her along with you all the time? I don’t advise you to keep her by your side. Like I said before, this young lady is too good-looking and will steal your limelight too easily. It would be fine if she doesn’t take part in the filming, but if she does, it will be harmful to you.”

Without waiting for Song Yanru to reply, she continued earnestly, “Yanru, you have a lot of fans, but if they compare your looks with that girl’s, it’ll be very disadvantageous to you. Moreover, why do I feel that the girl was deliberately trying to steal time on camera tonight?”

As soon as He Liuqing said that, Song Yanru subconsciously denied it on Master Chi’s behalf. He Liuqing continued, “Yanru, you have to understand that there’s no knowing what a person’s heart is like. Moreover, who in this world doesn’t want to be popular and have both fame and fortune? No matter how capable a person is, if they have the opportunity, do you think they’ll give up and choose to remain indifferent to fame and fortune?”

Song Yanru couldn’t say anything in response. If it were a few days ago, Song Yanru would have refused without thinking. Sister He’s words were quite familiar to her, and she had said similar things before. However, Song Yanru had cherished her life a few days ago and had been fearful. Master Chi could give her a huge sense of security, so she didn’t have the slightest intention of chasing her away.

Now, however, she felt some hesitation and regret. If she had known that it was fine to come here, she naturally wouldn’t have invited Master Chi.

To be honest, she still didn’t believe that Master Chi wanted to steal time on camera to become popular. After all, she was powerful and capable; if she really wanted to become famous, Song Yanru wasn’t necessarily the only way to do so.

What bothered her was everyone’s attention on Master Chi in the past few days, as well as the discussion about her looks.

If it wasn’t for the fact that she cherished her life, she wouldn’t be willing to look at Master Chi’s face every now and then. Logically speaking, she was well aware that Master Chi was completely different from other women, and had no intention of entering this circle at all. However, when she thought of how others said that she couldn’t compare with the other party in terms of looks, she felt more dissatisfaction than aggrieved. After all, she had been proud of her looks for more than a decade. At the same time, she honed her abilities to match, so she felt especially proud.

Seeing that Yanru’s expression seemed to have softened a little, He Liuqing hurriedly continued, “Yanru, I know you were worried that something would happen here, which is why you specially invited a Master over. But look at us now; hasn’t it been peaceful and stable the last few days? How can there be so many gods and ghosts in this world? If there really are, the chances of running into them are too low. We’ll return to the capital in two days after filming. Why keep a bomb next to us during that time? You know how many people are anxious to see you trip up. Do you want the news to be filled with headlines like ‘Film Empress Song’s assistant crushes her with her youth’?”

Sure enough!

As soon as He Liuqing said that, Song Yanru’s expression finally relaxed and she nodded. “Okay, Sister He, but I’ll leave this to you. I don’t really want to see her again.”

“Alright!”
