Chapter 381


    "Let me take a picture. I''ll return the original copy to him. And help me ask around and see if there''s


    anything he needs. I''ll gift him something in return." Shi Jin took a picture of the ancient book from


    last time as well and handed it to Yao Jiahong for him to return.

    Xiuli Entertainment held a major signing ceremony tonight.


    The two artistes that were going to be signed tonight would be the main artistes that the


    company was going to promote. One was Shi Xuexin and the other was Chu Jia.


    Chu Jia was admitted to a performing arts school. With Chu Ling''s connections, she became an


    actress in the acting department.


    As for Shi Xuexin, after a series of operations by Hu Lai some time ago, she currently had close to a


    million fans. She had some fame and was taken in by thepany.


    Shi Xuexin was directly led by Hu Lai.


    Thepany was well aware of her rtionship with Chu Ling.


    Hu Lai helped Chu Ling tidy up his suit as she said, "Xuexin is officially a signed artist now. The two


    of you are getting more and morepatible."


    Chu Ling did not speak, but another figure appeared in his mind.


    He looked down at his tie.


    "When Xuexin wins the Ivy League Composition Contest, you''ll all be able to make an official


    announcement," Huie said. "She''s good at both piano and Chinese art. When that happens, she


    can bring you along to gain some poprity."


    Chu Ling looked up and said, "Are you done?"


    "Done."


    He strode out.


    Shi Xuexin was already dressed up and standing in the crowd. No one in thepany treated her


    as aplete neer.


    Other than her rtionship with Chu Ling, her title as a talented woman was not to be


    underestimated.


    Piano yer,poser, Chinese painter, all of these were enough for her to gain everyone''s


    admiration.


    "Congrattions, Xuexin."


    "We will be colleagues from now on. Please take care of me." Shi Xuexin raised her ss.


    "Same to you, same to you." Everyone was very humble.


    Seeing Chu Ling walk over, Shi Xuexin said with a smile, "...Chu Ling."


    She swallowed the word ''Brother.''


    "Congrattions." Chu Ling clinked sses with her.


    Shi Xuexin''s face lit up. "It was really lively tonight. Thank you for holding such a grand signing


    ceremony for me."


    "Of course," Chu Ling said.


    "I have to be interviewedter. I can''t drink too much."


    She took a little sip.


    Hu Lai came over and held her hand. "Let''s go, Xuexin. We''re going for an interview."


    Chu Ling still had to avoid starting rumors and did not follow her.


    The reporters were all invited by Xiuli Entertainment, so everyone knew what to ask and what not to


    ask.


    The moment Shi Xuexin entered, everyone greeted her before asking questions.


    "1 heard that you and Shi Jin were switched at birth?" the reporter asked.


    This question was obviously meant to make use of Shi Jin''s poprity. An agent like Hu Lai would


    not pass up on the opportunity.


    Now, no matter what happened, as long as Shi Jin was mentioned, they would end up on the hot


    search list. She didn''t want to give up this opportunity.


    Although Shi Xuexin was somewhat unwilling, she knew that this was a path she had to take, so


    she still answered.


    That night, the interview report came out.


    ''The real daughter of the Shi family has made her debut! What does the girl behind the talented


    piano skills and Chinese paintings look like?''


    "Who is the real heiress whose looks are not inferior to Shi Jin''s?"


    ''In a battle between the real and fake daughter, the winner is clear. Let''s see Shi Xuexin''s interview.''


    It had nothing to do with Shi Jin, but Shi Jin''s name was


    everywhere.


    This wave of views and attention had given Shi Xuexin''s debut fame and poprity.


    Especially since the photo was taken outside the Philharmonic Music Hall in Warsaw, she indeed


    looked like a girl of talent.


    Although her looks were far from surpassing Shi Jin''s, many people still fell for it. They


    acknowledged her persona of someone who could y piano and paint Chinese paintings, causing


    Shi Xuexin to have many fans.


    The gossip about her rtionship with Shi Jin and Chu Ling also started flying.


    Shi Jin''s fans were so angry that they keptining. Fortunately, Shi Jin''s core fans were very


    rational.


    Among them, "A Man Like the Wind" and "Lily Pad He Tiantian" were the calmest. They tried their


    best to calm the fans down. "Everyone, just don''t look at her. Focus on Shi Jin. You don''t have to


    increase Shi Xuexin''s poprity." However, on Shi Xuexin''s end, there was a constant stream of


    petty tricks.


    Interviews kept appearing.


    For example, when Shi Jin was mentioned, Shi Xuexin openly expressed, "Our rtionship has


    always been pretty good. Although there were all kinds of misunderstandings between us, I believe


    that it will all pass."


    "I just debuted, I definitely have no intention of using her poprity. But as two people who grew up


    in the same family, it''s inevitable that we would bepared together. I''m mentally prepared and


    used to it."

    "I''ve been thinking about entering the entertainment industry since a long time ago, but I still feel


    like I need to finish my education first. Only then can I bring more and better works to everyone."


    "Now that I''m ready, I hope you''re also ready to ept me."


    "As for Chu Ling, forget it. He is my senior. I have no right to say anything. Engagement is also a


    family matter. I am someone who yearns for freedom and will not be restricted by those old rules."


    Every sentence was filled with Shi Jin, and every sentence was indirectly attacking her. As for


    bringing Chu Ling along, she was much more cautious. She didn''t want to offend Chu Ling''s fans.


    Therefore, most of Shi Jin''s fans were furious while Chu Ling''s fans were quiet.


    "A real heiress is a real heiress. She''s very magnanimous. I''m a fan now."


    "She ys the piano really well. I like such talented girls."


    The fake fans that she had bought were mixed in with the real fans. In just one night, Shi Xuexin''s


    fans had increased from one million to two million. It was breathtaking.


    At this moment, no matter what Yao Jiahong and Shi Jin did or said, it would be unwise. Therefore,


    the two of them could only wait and see.


    Shi Xuexin took the opportunity to post on Weibo, announcing her first activity after entering the


    entertainment industry.


    "This weekend, I''ll be participating in the semi-finals of the Ivy League Piano Composition


    Competition. I hope to receive everyone''s support."


    After this battle, Shi Xuexin had gained the reputation of a real heiress.


    Thements were all supportivements that said that they would watch the semi-finals for her.


    ***


    In the medicalboratory of the Imperial Capital University, Wei Zai was so excited that he stopped


    his experiment. He set an rm and went to grab the tickets.


    The tickets for the previous preliminaries were already very difficult to get, so one could imagine


    how difficult the semi-finals would be.


    "Xuexin has finally made her debut! I''ll have more chances to see her in the future!"


    sses Boy nced at Gu Jingyuan and said, "This so-called real heiress is a little too much. She


    appeared out of nowhere and keeps taking advantage of Shijin''s poprity."


    Gu Jingyuan nced at the news and said, "Do your experiment."
