Chapter 5: Abandon Heroine’s Status and Become an Insignificant Cannon Fodder (2)
In order to avoid her pitiful life in the future, she decided to give up her male lead husband and her daughter, retreating to become an insignificant and happy cannon fodder.
In the beginning, she wanted to be a celebrity, so she could earn money and improve her paternal aunt’s life. Now that she was wealthy and had much more than she expected, why wouldn’t she be satisfied?
From her assistant, she found out that she had two estates in her native country town. In this huge city, she had six estates and three were villas. She had two more estates near Morocco king’s temporary imperial residence which were considerably pricy.
Besides that, she had a few luxurious cars under her name as well as the 5 million cash. Even if she didn’t work in her afterlife, she and her paternal aunt could live blissfully just by collecting rent.
With the above, she was extremely pleased.
The day she was discharged from the hospital, the reporters and media blocked the entrance of the hospital. The bodyguards and assistant made a path for her through the packed crowd. When she got in the car, someone ripped the mask off her and the shocking scar on her right face was exposed.
The reporters took as many snapshots as they could and then they crazily sent the manuscript off to the printer factories.
#Lin Yueqi was disfigured and will probably leave the entertainment industry#
#Lin Yueqi deserved the disfigurement of her face#
#Jealousy made her ugly? Exposing the truth of Lin Yueqi’s disfigurement#
……
In the villa, Lin Yueqi’s assistant, Xiao Ke, was cupping the iPad and reading the heading off the news while shaking in rage.
Only
After she was done reading it, she gazed up at Lin Yueqi who was sitting cross-legged, wearing Pikachu pajamas with her hair in a bun and eating fried chicken. Once again feeling conflicted, the assistant spoke up, “Sister Qi, you can’t give up on yourself. If you keep eating junk food like this, you’ll gain weight. I know you’re angry, but you shouldn’t do this to yourself…”
“Who said I’m angry?” While shoving chips in her mouth, Lin Yueqi held her phone in one hand and ordered an extra spicy takeout.
She happily said, “I’m happy. I’ll definitely become more popular since so many media companies are reporting about me. The scar on my face is only temporary. Plus, medicine is so advanced today, so what more can a scar do? It’s not like I’ll have it forever. I’m so rich right now, so do you think I can’t afford the money to do plastic surgery?”
Perhaps being so accustomed to being poor when she was young made her care more about money more than her beauty. As long as she had money, she was happy. The scar on her face was no big deal.
“…” Xiao Ke glanced at the optimistic Lin Yueqi, unsure whether to worry or to be happy. She took out her phone and glanced at a message before saying angrily, “Sister Qi, this Liu Zhongde is going overboard! You had saved the show for his reality show in the past, but he wants you to be the supporting character for Qin Xue and attend his 《Celebrity College Entrance Exam Competition》reality show. I heard that he is paying Qin Xue 2 million per episode, but he’s only giving you 800,000! Too excessive! You’re Qin Xue’s elder and at least an A-lister actress. Isn’t he humiliating you like this?”
《Celebrity College Entrance Exam Competition》 was a celebrity-based reality show and the invited celebrities would pass each round by solving college entrance exam problems. This reality show challenges their IQ and the celebrities who have completed the missions would usually gain fans. After all, the market was like this. Fans don’t just like celebrities for their appearance, but hoped for them to have both the looks and brains.

“If the tiger goes down to level land, he’ll be bullied by the dogs. It’s normal, normal.” Lin Yueqi shoved another chip in her mouth and while chewing, she said unclearly, “At least, it’s 800,000!! I’m very satisfied that I can earn 800,000 a year! Don’t pass that for me! I must earn this 800,000!!”
