Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius - Chapter 203 - 184: Ji Xizhi in the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 203: Chapter 184: Ji Xizhi in the Entertainment Industry
A few minutes earlier, in the Dark Shark King Director Alliance group, Fang Zhuyue and Qin Yutian saw Zhu Xiu’an’s message and were also thinking about the scene of Zhi Zhi playing games with them.
However, after Ji Xizhi replied to Zhu Xiu’an, everyone simultaneously gave up on the idea.
Games can be skipped, but exams? That’s impossible!
Protect Me for Safety: We’ll talk about this later, don’t change the topic, we’re talking about you now!
Ji Xizhi: I don’t usually play games.
Protect Me for Safety: How is that possible? You don’t usually play, and yet you’ve killed so many times?!
Zhu Xiu’an didn’t believe a word of it. The videos on Weibo are insane, and now Ji Xizhi says she doesn’t usually play games. It’s like the top student in class claiming they don’t study at home—ridiculous!
Zhu Xiu’an was now essentially a meme: I’m gonna riot.jpg
Ji Xizhi wasn’t in a hurry, she just replied with a few words.
Ji Xizhi: You can too.
Protect Me for Safety: Are you going to teach me?
Ji Xizhi looked at the message from Zhu Xiu’an, then glanced at Mo Anxia beside her.
Then she edited the conversation she just had with Mo Anxia into a text and sent it in detail to Zhu Xiu’an.
She had played a similar game before entering the book, though the game’s name and character names were different. The gameplay and basic content were the same. During her postgraduate studies, Jiang Qianli signed her up for a college gaming competition to encourage her social interactions.
At the time, she studied for a while to win first place. Later, to reassure Jiang Qianli, she occasionally played a couple of games in front of him to show she had normal leisure time apart from studying.
Eventually, she naturally conducted some research on legal services in the gaming industry, including compliance systems like anti-addiction and real-name policies, consumer spending, and esports club contract disputes emerging with the industry’s rise.
After all, having invested the time, it would have been a waste not to learn something.
In the Dark Shark King Director Alliance, when Zhu Xiu’an heard Ji Xizhi offer to teach him gaming, his blood boiled.
That’s true brotherhood!
You can play games with others, but true secrets and methods can only be shared with your own people.
After receiving Ji Xizhi’s lengthy reply,
Zhu Xiu’an: ? This scene seems familiar.
Isn’t this the same as sending books and exam papers before!!!
After Ji Xizhi sent it, she asked in the group.
Ji Xizhi: Besides that, there should be some good legal cases related to gaming. Do you want to see them?
Protect Me for Safety: … Actually, our brotherhood isn’t that deep.
Zhu Xiu’an couldn’t make any more excuses before Fang Zhuyue and Qin Yutian suddenly appeared, lifting Zhu Xiu’an high on the spot.
Chasing Moon Man: We definitely need those, come on, a man can’t say no!
One Day: Indeed, waiting for you to guide me!
Protect Me for Safety: …..
Everyone’s out now? Not playing dead anymore???
Seeing that three out of the four people in the group were tormenting him, Zhu Xiu’an angrily went on Weibo, if someone has to rush, it can’t just be him.
Zhu Xiu’an: (smiling) Sharing Ji Xizhi’s secrets, hope everyone can reach the peak in the new season~
[When I saw today’s trending topic, I knew you’d definitely go bother Ji Xizhi. Did you get any results?]
[Glanced at the secret, suddenly realized… I don’t mind not reaching the peak, @Zhu Xiu’an you go up and show me!]
[When my son posted this, I knew, he couldn’t make it up, otherwise would he post it?]
[This is killing me, who just said the persona collapsed, and the academic prodigy can’t play games? Daqing is gone, everyone come and see! Can an academic prodigy be the same as a normal person? Normal people play games; academic prodigies master the game: This game is under my control~]
[Legal cases related to gaming… too unbelievable, in the future, I won’t be able to escape being swept away by Ji Xizhi in games, trembling~]
A moment ago, several netizens were adamant about Ji Xizhi’s scholar persona collapsing.
The next second, they were bombarded with screenshots from Zhu Xiu’an.
The tag of Ji Xizhi’s persona collapse hadn’t gained traction before it was thoroughly extinguished.

Early the next morning, Ji Xizhi flew back to A City with the show crew.
A few guests rested and played all night, and today they had to rush the itinerary again. The show crew booked the flight early, so everyone had to get up early.
Ji Xizhi was the first to pack up and come down, and she ordered breakfast for everyone downstairs.
When the other guests and Director Xu came down, they could eat breakfast.
While waiting, Ji Xizhi glanced at the lobby and happened to see the esports team they encountered yesterday afternoon heading out again.
Ji Xizhi looked, then casually asked the server, “Is there an esports match nearby?”
The server smiled shyly and said, “I’m not sure, but my colleague mentioned there might be a match.”
Ji Xizhi nodded knowingly and didn’t pay much more attention.
Half an hour later, the other guests were mostly down for breakfast. Le Qiqi, full of morning grumpiness, saw Ji Xizhi’s leisurely posture and her mood disappeared.
She leaned over and said, “Director Wang agreed to the guest star, next time I’ll go with you!”
Ji Xizhi smiled in response, “Okay.”
Qiu Lin next to her showed a desperate expression: “I want to go too~ Ooh, I’ll beg my agent when I return!”
Mo Anxia: “Me too!”
Director Xu sitting far inside: “Do you all really think I’m dead?!!!”
Right in front of him, openly jumping ships?!
Ji Xizhi watched Director Xu flare up and tilted her head, asking, “Then Director Xu, you can come along?”
Director Xu: “…”
Le Qiqi/Qiu Lin/Mo Anxia: “Pfft~”
When it comes to dealing with Director Xu, Ji Xizhi has mastered many methods!
After breakfast, everyone rushed to the airport to fly to A City. At the airport exit, as their journeys diverged, they separated.
Ji Xizhi, with a backpack, exited the airport and saw Xiao Yuan waiting after a long wait.
Xiao Yuan had been there for a while, and as soon as he saw Ji Xizhi, he waved both hands, “Here, here!!!”
Ji Xizhi stepped over.
Xiao Yuan forcibly took Ji Xizhi’s bag and led her towards the fans.
“All the intellectuals are here, just stay composed, say a few words to everyone, and take some photos,” Xiao Yuan arranged thoughtfully.
Before the words were finished, they heard a voice from the left side of the airport exit crowd.
“Yanyan, go for it! We’re all supporting you. The entertainment circle’s Little Ji Xizhi is also starting to strive hard~”
“Yeah, you can definitely be as excellent as Ji Xizhi! You’re awesome!”
Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan looked towards the source of the voice.
There was another group of fans receiving someone there.
In the center of the fan crowd stood a high-ponytail-dressed-in-workwear star, her expression cold amidst the crowd.
Xiao Yuan looked from afar, feeling a surge of anger.
“Little Ji Xizhi? This is too much. It was okay to ride the wave online, but now they’re claiming your name too???”
