Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Are You Really Going to Participate in That Variety Show?
On the plane, when He Yun had taken off his mask and greeted her proactively, she had already confirmed his tragic ending.
She had also figured out his current predicament of being trapped by family and unable to escape.
Borrowing the plowing machine was just a convenient move; the real goal was to help him out of his adversity.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li pulled out his phone, opened WeChat, and found Shen Lan’s contact.
“Second Aunt, do you have some time? There’s something important I need to discuss with you.”
After sending this message, Jiang Li turned off her phone and focused her attention on the huge plow in front of her.
...
After a quick inspection, she found the manual and started to study it while standing.
The people in the live broadcast room didn’t know exactly what had happened, but seeing Jiang Li attempting to drive the plow to complete the task, they couldn’t help but criticize her.
“She’s not really thinking about operating the plow herself, is she? It took He Yun almost an hour to learn.”
“If you can’t do it, don’t show off. Aren’t Shu Yan’s manpower plows easier to use than this diesel one? I think she just wants to get close to He Yun!”
“Is Jiang Li capable at all? Scaring our brother with divination and then borrowing a plow, this way of striking up a conversation is so low.”
“These plows are difficult to operate, I’ve tried it before. How could Jiang Li, a tender and fragile girl, possibly handle it well? Waiting to see her fail!”
However, the next second, the originally poised and calm girl leaped onto the driver’s seat, her posture sharp and spirited.

Then, with a “roar—” from the exhaust pipe and billowing thick smoke, the wheels started turning, and she disappeared from the camera like a gust of wind.
The live broadcast room was stupefied.
She really can drive it?!
She figured it out just by looking at the manual for two minutes?!

Jingcheng Chen’an Media Building.
Under several magnesium lights, a woman in a white chiffon dress posed gracefully, showing off the ring in her hand.
Opposite her were several cameras, the photographers couldn’t help praising her condition and appearance.
“That pose is very good, the expression too, keep it up.”
“Alright, let’s take one last shot, and we’ll wrap it up.”
“Excellent! Perfect!”
“That’s it for today’s shooting, Miss Su, you’ve worked hard.”
Su Yinwan took off the brand ring and handed it to her assistant, then smiled sweetly at the photographers and nodded slightly, “Teacher Chen, you’ve worked hard too, I had the assistant buy some snacks, they’re in the lounge, please share them with everyone later.”
Hearing this, Teacher Chen smiled even more brightly, “Miss Su, you’re too polite. You are one of the most relaxed stars I’ve ever worked with, and I hope we can work together again in the future.”
“Of course, Teacher Chen has been in international exhibitions, a prominent figure in the industry, it’s my honor to collaborate with you,” said Su Yinwan. “It’s getting late, I should get going, you all take care too.”
“Alright, goodbye Miss Su.”
Until Su Yinwan’s figure had disappeared from sight, Chen Kai was still remarking to those around him.
“Su Yinwan really is just like the internet says, no airs at all, pretty, and if she had a bit more expressiveness, she’d be perfect!”
People around her nodded in agreement, “It’s really rare to see a celebrity who doesn’t throw a tantrum these days. Miss Su, being so graceful, is a true rarity. If I could take her pictures every day, I’d die happy.”
However, what they didn’t realize was that the moment the woman entered the dressing room and the door behind her closed, that sweet, gentle smile had completely vanished.
The assistant, oblivious, came forward holding a ring box.
“Sis, what about this LU ring? Will you wear it to the event tomorrow?”
Su Yinwan sat on the sofa, taking the tea her agent handed her, her eyes filled with disdain.
“This low-end luxury brand isn’t fit for me to wear to an event. I wouldn’t have accepted it if not for the decent PR terms they offered.”
The assistant bowed her head and shrugged her shoulders.
Although Su Yinwan’s recent change in temperament had been hard for her to adjust to, the other was a popular young star and her boss. No matter how many complaints she had, she could only bury them in her heart without showing any of them.
After all, celebrities in the entertainment industry relied on crafted personas to gain popularity; she had been mentally prepared for this before she entered the industry, so facing such a situation, she was only briefly surprised and didn’t take it to heart.
Seeing the moment was right, the agent, Xiao Xueyi, sent the assistant away with a glance and then began massaging Su Yinwan’s shoulders.
“Yinwan, if you don’t like this brand, then let’s not accept their offers in the future. There’s no need to sacrifice your own influence just to help them out.”
Su Yinwan closed her eyes, murmuring an agreement through her lips.
Xiao Xueyi continued when she saw the timing was good, “But Yinwan, have you really thought it through, about joining that variety show? With your current popularity and status… it’s really not necessary.”
Su Yinwan slowly opened her eyes, her gaze deep and sharp.
“Sister Xueyi, you don’t understand. Although that variety show isn’t even A-list, its recent popularity isn’t low, and…,” she smiled before continuing, “all the female guests have notorious scandals. Going there would just make me a contrast, and it’s also good for the publicity of my upcoming series.”
“You really think outside the box, Yinwan. It seems this show might indeed be more beneficial than detrimental,” Xiao Xueyi said. “Don’t worry, I’ve already spoken to the company. They’ll ensure you get the maximum exposure. After all, you are our top celebrity at Chen’an, and we can’t let you be treated unfairly.”
“Then let me thank you in advance, Sister Xueyi.”
“Don’t mention it; you’re the most promising talent I’ve managed. I can’t wait to see you become a huge star,” Xiao Xueyi said. “By the way, the staff we placed in the Flash Change team also replied. He hasn’t forgotten the task, but that Jiang Li… is really not easy to deal with.”
A hint of fierceness flashed through Su Yinwan’s eyes.
Indeed, Jiang Li’s change even surprised her, someone with the heroine’s aura. Despite her deliberate efforts to manipulate public opinion and have the village chief lead the repulsion against her, she had managed to counter every move.
That woman was truly something else.
However, she wouldn’t let anyone hinder her mission.
As she thought this, the phone on the coffee table began to vibrate.
Xiao Xueyi glanced at it and asked subconsciously, “Who’s LM? I don’t remember any friend of yours by that name.”
Su Yinwan picked up the phone.
“He’s not my friend.”
LM, leading man, the one and only top male lead reserved for her—Shang Shaojing.
After Xiao Xueyi left, she finally answered the call, her face once again displaying that sweet yet false smile.
“Hello, sorry Brother Shaojing, I was just in the middle of a shoot and didn’t hear your call.”
“No problem.” Over the phone, Shang Shaojing’s voice was calm and magnetic. “I know you’re busy. Are you free to have dinner together? I’m just downstairs.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yinwan walked to the window and slightly opened the curtain. As expected, she saw the black Rolls Royce under the street lamp.
After a brief, composed delay and a small nod, she said, “OK, Brother Shaojing, just give me a moment to get ready, and I’ll come down.”
