She had studied Pei Group’s pharmaceutical technology before—by Daxia standards, it wasn’t bad. Maybe her Sixth Senior Brother would be willing to invest.
“Con who?” Jiang Changning was already used to Si Fuqing’s wild topic shifts.
“Not my boss.” Si Fuqing smiled lazily. “A poor, lonely single dog.”
Jiang Changning shook her head.
She really didn’t understand what kind of strange people were always circling around Si Fuqing.
The elevator reached the 16th floor. The two of them stepped out and headed to Room 1618.
Just as they swiped the card—click—the lock of the neighboring room turned, and the door opened.
Two girls stepped out.
“Fuqing, Changning, you’re just getting here?” one of them said with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. “Have you eaten? The hotel buffet’s already closed, but we shouldn’t eat too much anyway. We’re idols—we have to maintain our figures.”
Si Fuqing dragged her suitcase into the room without even glancing at them. “If you don’t know how to smile, don’t. That implant is about to fall off.”
The girls’ faces went green, “……”
“Si Fuqing, how dare you talk like that?” the other group member snapped, heaving a trash bag heavily onto the floor. “Do you think that just because you’ve finally got a bit of popularity you can act like this? How many top-tier endorsements has Sister Xue landed? None of them act as full-of-themselves as you!”
“I’m not just full of myself—I’ll also teach you a lesson,” Si Fuqing said, reaching out to pat the girl’s cheek. “Behave yourself.”
With a thud, the door closed.
The two girls outside were left staring at each other, faces were red.
Inside the room, Jiang Changning sighed, rubbing her temples. “I really shouldn’t worry about you—once your true nature shows, nobody dares bully you.”
“There still are people,” Si Fuqing shrugged. “I’m heading to see my boss now. I should be back before midnight—maybe not; if not, I’ll see you at tomorrow morning’s shoot.”
Jiang Changning nodded, still worried. Si Fuqing was juggling so many jobs—could she really handle it?
She thought for a moment. Maybe she could cut some of the wild herbs her father grows and sell them to help Si Fuqing out? A few handfuls would go unnoticed.
Jiang Changning quietly made up her mind.

Meanwhile, next door…
The two girls still looked furious.
“Xiaosi, I never realized how different Si Fuqing’s become,” the first girl frowned. “I thought she was just putting on a show for the cameras.”
“Right? She’s not someone you can mess with now,” Cen Xiaosi sneered. “‘Daxia’s Divine Beauty’—what an honor. Even the top female stars haven’t been hyped like that.”
“Jiang Changning used to have her back,” the first girl said, curling her lip. “I guess she’s seen the real Si Fuqing’s face—otherwise, why would she be so protective?”There are no true friends in showbiz—only alliances of convenience.
“Maybe she’s just trying to latch onto the Zuo family,” Cen Xiaosi scoffed. “I once saw Jiang Changning’s people carryinga snake-skin sack containing nothing as decent as fruit—just some wild herbs or grass. You could tell her family’s poor as anything.”
“Too bad Si Fuqing is already cut off from the Zuos,” the first girl laughed. “So Jiang Changning has no chance of benefiting from that connection anymore.”
“Hey, hey, look at this!” Cen Xiaosi suddenly piped up. “Is this the plane they took today?”
The girls crowded around the phone.
On the screen, footage showed a plane being battered by a storm.
What was astonishing was that the storm stayed confined to a small area—yet it followed the plane all the way along its route.
Cen Xiaosi gloated, “See? Retribution’s here. Their whole trip has been a mess. Seriously, why didn’t that lightning just strike her dead?”
She used to dislike Si Fuqing because Si Fuqing had no abilities and was easy to bully.
Now, it was because of jealousy.
“Alright, let’s not say things like that,” the other girl shrugged. “When the recording starts, her true colors will show.”
They had trained overseas for three years. As fellow members of the Starlight Girls group, they knew Si Fuqing’s real capabilities best.
Only then did Cen Xiaosi feel a little better.
She was the vice-captain. With Meng Xue gone, the opportunities would naturally go to her.
They definitely wouldn’t go to Si Fuqing.
Cen Xiaosi continued scrolling through other videos, not noticing that the video from just now had been deleted just ten seconds after it appeared.

Meanwhile, in Beizhou.
Inside a villa, a woman was sitting on a sofa, answering a phone call.
“The video has been deleted, but some people did manage to see it. We’re investigating exactly what happened.”
The woman’s expression remained cold and indifferent. “What’s the report?”
The voice on the other end was respectful, “Preliminary analysis suggests that someone like a curse master initiated a formation that triggered the storm. It was not caused by an Evolver’s power outburst. There’s a gap in the footage from the airplane’s surveillance system—likely affected by the storm—so we can’t yet determine who did it.”
