Now that her spiritual power is gradually recovering, Xu Liang, the second senior sister of Cangyun Sect, has woken up. As soon as she woke up, she learned some bad news: a developer had bought Cangshan Mountain and planned to turn it into a tourist attraction, the kind where she would have to buy tickets to go home in the future.
Xu Liang approached the big boss behind the scenes, intending to coerce and entice her into giving up the plan to transform Cangshan Mountain. However, she was tricked into signing a marriage contract instead.
An Ciwei: You want me to give up Cangshan? Fine. But you have to do me a favor.
Xu Liang: What kind of help?
An Ciwei: Marry me, and cooperate with me in a play that will last for three years. I will not touch Cangshan within three years, and after three years I can sell Cangshan to you at the original price.
After leaving the Civil Affairs Bureau, Xu Liang asked the woman beside him how much Cangshan was originally priced. The woman replied, "Not expensive, only two hundred million."
Xu Liang looked at the red booklet in his hand, his nose tingled, and he wanted to cry... he wanted to go home.
After that, Xu Liang lived a life of acting, spending his days accompanying An Ciwei in urban romance dramas and his nights wandering the streets and alleys alone, performing in horror movies.
An Ciwei has a grandmother who favors sons over daughters, a father who cheats on her and supports another man, and uncles who are eyeing her covetously; she also has a nephew who fights and causes trouble and never listens to advice; she has a best friend who steals her luck and fiancé, a neighbor who harbors evil intentions, villains in her company, evil spirits in her home, and a difficult old monster from the Xuanmen sect among her business rivals.
Xu Liang tearfully helped her clean up the mess. After dealing with all the hostile forces above, another ex-girlfriend, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, appeared in An Ciwei's life.
Xu Liang returned from a meeting in the underworld in the early hours of the morning to find the usually serious CEO An being kissed on the desk by his ex-girlfriend, his "white moonlight." Ugh! So cringeworthy!
One day—
Two divorce agreements appeared on An Ciwei's desk, each already signed with another person's name.
Xu Liang, no longer the naive and ignorant woman she once was, arrogantly and coldly lifted the woman's chin, "You, surnamed An! Hurry up and sign, I've had enough of you!"

Chapter Forty-Nine
Of course she was very anxious, and Ono kept trying to persuade her.
"Go talk to her first, give Xiao Xu a heads-up, just in case other companies contact her and she's tempted to agree. Does she seem like the kind of person who goes back on her word? We can't fall behind."
Gu Yueyue thought there was some truth to what Ono said.
So that very night, Gu Yueyue went to find Xu Yi.
This surprised Xu Yi greatly, and he forgot to invite her into the room after opening the door.
"What, are you not inviting me in now?"
Xu Yi, somewhat dazed, invited the person in, poured her a glass of water, and brought out some snacks, trying to act as an ordinary mortal in entertaining a guest.
"Teacher Gu, what brings you here?"
Gu Yueyue was a little nervous. In fact, what she was doing was no different from making empty promises.
She told Xu Yi about her studio and two variety shows, using language that was as neutral as possible so as not to sound like a brainwashing con artist.
"OK."
When Gu Yueyue expressed her desire to sign a contract with Xu Yi, Xu Yi readily agreed, her tone cheerful as if she were discussing tomorrow's weather.
"Don't you have anything else to ask?" Seeing that she was completely trusting and unguarded, Gu Yueyue felt even more uneasy. She felt like a strange older sister trying to coax a child.
Xu Yi thought about it seriously for a moment and asked her, "Will the company arrange accommodation for me?"
"Yes." Gu Yueyue also considered that Xu Yi was really bad at taking care of herself, so she wanted to bring her to her side and help her as much as possible.
Moreover, Xu Yi intends to continue her studies. If her accommodations are not well-secret when she goes to school or attends events, she will easily be targeted by paparazzi.
"Are you moving after signing the contract? Or after the Star Idol program ends?" Xu Yi suddenly understood the meaning behind Xu Shang's earlier request for shelter.
If you want to get closer to Miss Gu, you need to get to know her better; it would be even better if you could live together.
"You can move whenever you want."
Gu Yueyue bought all three floors of the place where she lived. Although it was expensive, it was quiet and secluded. Her plan was to have Xu Yi move upstairs or downstairs to live with her later.
“I only paid one month’s rent to Ms. He. She said I could stay for a month first and then renew the lease if we could get along well. But I don’t have the money to renew the lease now.”
As Xu Shang said, be frank and explain yourself clearly, and exchange sincerity for sincerity.
"That's easy, I'll arrange your accommodation."
The conversation ended perfectly with unexpected speed.
When Gu Yueyue returned, Xiao Ye stopped her and asked, "Sister, how did it go?"
"It's all settled. You can rest assured now." Gu Yueyue chuckled. "However, I have one request: I hope we can arrange her accommodation as soon as possible."
"That's easy. I'll find her a place with good privacy and security right away, don't worry." Xiao Ye took out her phone to start doing something, but Gu Yueyue stopped her.
Gu Yueyue hesitated for a moment before saying, "No need to trouble yourself. Let her stay at my place."
As expected, what she said elicited a gasp from Ono.
"Sis, didn't you dislike having neighbors? They made you feel insecure. How come Xiao Xu is fine living with them?"
Gu Yueyue had no way to explain, so she could only let her laugh at her.
Xiao Ye laughed and left. She was busier than anyone else right now, not only preparing for the studio but also settling Xu Yi, who was about to sign a contract.
Someone must have told everyone that Xu Yi had come to the Star Idol Base, because the next morning, Xu Yi's former teammates arrived together.
Halfway there, Zhang Ya and Zheng Wan, two clever girls, suddenly had the idea to prepare a welcome gift for Xu Yi, but since they couldn't leave the base, they set their sights on the cafeteria.
Zhang Ya: "Shall we bring her some food? Xu Yi is about to face the revival competition, and the pressure is too great. Her way of relieving stress is to eat."
“Good idea, I agree. Let’s go to the cafeteria first.” Zheng Wan was very grateful for Xu Yi’s help before. When Xu Yi was eliminated, she almost went to the front of the stage to demand an explanation, but fortunately she was stopped.
Xu Yi was unaware that her teammates were about to bring her delicious food. She woke up early in the morning to find a man blocking her door.
“Xu Yi. Do you still remember me?” Zhao Sheng brushed his hair aside with one hand, while the other hand was hidden behind his back, holding a bouquet of roses.
When he came over, it was the first elimination round, and Xu Yi was eliminated in that round, so to be precise, they only met once.
Xu Yi certainly remembered him. After going on stage that day, the man's gaze remained fixed on her, leaving a deep impression on Xu Yi.
"I remember." Instinctively, she disliked this man, but Xu Yi controlled her emotions well. As a sword cultivator, she could not let her emotions control her.
Zhao Sheng beamed with joy, his smile bright and sunny. "That's wonderful. I thought that our brief encounter would only make me remember you, but I didn't expect you to remember me too."
"???"
"Xu Yi, do your best in tomorrow's revival competition." Zhao Sheng took out the bouquet of flowers from behind him. "You are the best. I look forward to seeing you on a bigger stage."
"Oh... thank you." Xu Yi responded indifferently, then belatedly added a thank you, but did not accept the bouquet of flowers.
Zhao Sheng stood in front of Xu Yi with a bright smile, reaching out to hand her flowers, but Xu Yi remained indifferent to all of this.
"Aren't you going to accept these flowers?" Zhao Sheng's smile remained unchanged. Even though he was being treated coldly, he could still maintain his image as a charming young man.
"I don't like it." Xu Yi glanced at the bouquet of beautiful and fragrant roses and said it very directly.
Zhao Sheng's smile faltered for a moment. He looked at the flowers, his tone stiff and awkward, "So what kind of flowers do you like?"
“I have no particular likes or dislikes when it comes to flowers.” Xu Yi reached out, her fingertips gently tracing the petals. Her gaze met Zhao Sheng’s, and her tone grew increasingly cold and ruthless. “However, I don’t like the person who sent the flowers.”
Xu Yi walked past him and went to the next room to find Gu Yueyue.
Ms. Gu gets up at six o'clock in the morning, then exercises for half an hour, and has breakfast at seven o'clock sharp.
This is something Xu Yi observed at the Star Idol Base. Unless the situation is extremely special, Miss Gu will not easily change this schedule. If she goes there now, she can catch Miss Gu having breakfast.
Zhao Sheng was completely ignored by her, and his smile deepened. He plucked the petals from the roses and crushed them in his palm.
"Interesting, very interesting."
Hearing his voice, Xu Yi turned around and saw Zhao Sheng's still bright and sunny smile, which looked somewhat sinister under the rising sun.
However, this did not affect Xu Yi at all. When she killed the demon with her bare hands, Zhao Sheng's ancestors may not have been created yet.
Xu Yi didn't pay any more attention to Zhao Sheng and knocked on Gu Yueyue's door.
Zhao Sheng quietly approached Xu Yi from behind, wanting to see who Xu Yi was looking for so early in the morning.
The door opened, revealing someone he knew all too well. Zhao Sheng felt a chill in his groin and his whole body ache.
"Gu Yueyue, why are you here?" Zhao Sheng had been harassed by Gu Yueyue before and was beaten up by her. He had let it go, but he wanted to get revenge. Who knew that this woman had a good relationship with his brother? His brother not only froze his card, but also sent someone to send him to his hometown to kneel in the ancestral hall.
He knew Gu Yueyue was on the show before he came, and he was a little hesitant at first, but when he thought about his brother going abroad with the crew to film on location, he became bolder.
As long as he's careful and doesn't offend Gu Yueyue, he should be able to pursue a girl without any problems.
But he never expected that despite his long period of preparation, he would still run into them unexpectedly.
The first thing Gu Yueyue saw when she opened the door was Xu Yi. She was a little surprised at first, but when she saw Zhao Sheng behind Xu Yi, she immediately understood.
Without saying a word, Gu Yueyue pulled Xu Yi into the room and shielded her behind her.
"Zhao Sheng, what are you doing here?"
Faced with Gu Yueyue's question, Zhao Sheng's smile gradually crumbled, and finally he said to her with a sour face, "I'm here to see Xu Yi, what's it to you?"
“This is my student. She’s under my supervision in the production team.” Gu Yueyue didn’t expect Zhao Sheng to still find Xu Yi.
At the same time, she was also glad that Xu Yi came here to ask her for help as soon as she was harassed by Zhao Sheng.
Xu Yi, who had no intention of asking for help, stood behind Gu Yueyue and curiously peered at them.
The two were locked in a fierce confrontation, with Zhao Sheng clearly at a disadvantage.
"What do you want with Xu Yi? If I remember correctly, Mr. Zhao is a guest mentor. Most of the program's affairs are none of your business, right?" Gu Yueyue bluntly stated her position, showing no mercy to Zhao Sheng.
The hunter was humiliated in front of the prey he was about to hunt, which made Zhao Sheng very unhappy.
"Don't think that just because my brother is protecting you, I won't dare to touch you. I just don't want to hurt the bond between us brothers."
