Chapter 244: Chapter 223: Isn’t It Easy to Win Over Ji Xizhi? (3)
The little girl grabbed her brother’s hand and shook it frantically, “The Fish Goddess is so beautiful!!!”
Ji Xizhi crouched in front of the two children, smiling, “Hello, Li Songting, Li Songling~”
The little boy’s eyes widened in belief, “She knows our names, wow, she really is the Fish Goddess!!!”
Ji Xizhi: “You both want to score full marks, right? Then go home with mom now, and I’ll come to find you tonight, okay?”
The little boy and girl were instantly convinced by Ji Xizhi, and they both responded obediently in unison, “Okay~”
The young mother watched as her precious children were easily coaxed by Ji Xizhi, thanking her repeatedly. As the two kids walked hand in hand to the side, she explained the reason to Ji Xizhi. The little boy and girl are fraternal twins, but they had previously fallen behind in studies due to illness and surgery, causing them to be mocked by classmates, which is why they took the stories as real.
The young mother kept thanking Ji Xizhi. Although she didn’t know Ji Xizhi personally, she knew she was an actress, and didn’t quite believe Ji Xizhi’s promise to visit them that night was for real.
Unexpectedly, Ji Xizhi earnestly asked for her address and really planned to visit them in the evening.
Ji Xizhi glanced over at the stand’s pocket money and said, “If it’s convenient, I can take some time over the next few days to tutor them! My name is Ji Xizhi, my current education level is a bachelor’s degree, and I’ve been accepted into a master’s program at Qing University this year. If you’re unsure, you can check.”
Young Mother: “…?”
“I heard earlier this year that some celebrity in the entertainment industry got into Qing University? Is that you?”
She wasn’t really into celebrities, but such discussions often made their way to her ears. She just couldn’t remember the name.
Ji Xizhi thought for a moment, then said, “It should be? But I’m not sure if there are others.”
[Take away the word ’should.’ I’ve been a fan for ten years, never heard this, boohoohoo!]
[Zhi Zhi is too modest! It’s you!]
The fans in the live stream were shouting wildly, and the young mother at the shooting scene was also dumbfounded. It took her a while to react. After agreeing on a time and leaving the address with Ji Xizhi, she planned to leave.
As she turned around, she saw the sign for salted fish and tutoring written on Ji Xizhi’s stall board.
The young mother paused, “Are you selling these?”
Ji Xizhi nodded.
Young Mother: “I’ll take all of them then!”
The young mother’s voice was like a huge stone, instantly waking the four silent guests watching the show.
Zhu Xiu’an immediately dropped the voice changer and shouted, “I’m selling my salted fish too, mine’s for sale as well! I can play the Fish God Dad, Fish God Brother, or Fish God Little Brother!”
Sheng Yaoyao: “Me too, I’ll play a disciple under the Fish Goddess!”
Guan Fengyan, after thinking for a moment, shamelessly said, “I can be the Fish God Grandpa too.”
Young Mother: “……” started to feel scared!
–
The young mother ended up only buying all of Ji Xizhi’s salted fish.
The production team couldn’t stop her. The PD, who knew all the program rules, watched as Ji Xizhi sold out before the arrival of the guest stars.
Even Director Wang paused when reviewing the footage later.
What is this? Salted fish can be sold like this? The entire show planning team couldn’t come up with this storyline together!!!
Especially seeing the guests competing to cosplay at the end, Director Wang was completely shocked.
Seeing the guest stars about to arrive, Ji Xizhi peeked out to inquire about packing up, and the numb Director Wang simply didn’t stop her, waving her off to let her pack up.
Director Wang shouted: Go! Quickly go! Pack up immediately! Don’t delay the show’s subsequent plot!
Ji Xizhi swiftly collected her earnings and headed home. She had just left when the three guest stars and Le Qiqi from the production team arrived.
Bai Zhe fiddled with a hundred-yuan bill in his hand and was the first to approach the five salted fish stalls.
Before coming, he had already done a lot of research on Ji Xizhi; he had watched her variety shows and live streams, so identifying Ji Xizhi among the five guests wasn’t a tough task for him.
Especially since some of the guests had written things on the salted fish price board.
Bai Zhe’s gaze immediately locked onto the stall with legal case analyses written on it, his eyes slightly brightened.
Internally thinking: Little one! Isn’t this easily nabbing Ji Xizhi?!
