Seven or eight cars drove toward Songlin Manor.

Old Master Lu and Lu Zhenhua sat side by side, silent, each with their own agenda.

Lu Zhenhua's mind was filled with only one thing—

I don't know if I can count on that good-for-nothing Lu Jisheng. If not, I'll have to think of a backup plan.

How can I bring this up with Wen Qi and coax her to go to the auction in the name of the Lu family?

Wen Qi loves money, but that's exactly what Lu Zhenhua needs most, so he doesn't want to give it to her.

Old Master Lu is much simpler and more down-to-earth. He's almost run out of money and now all he wants is for a more stable life.

Once we arrive at Pine Forest Manor, we should no longer have to work in the fields under the sun and wind.

His old bones were already too weak from working for days on end. He had backaches, pains, and felt unwell all over. If he continued planting, he was afraid he would really fall apart.

Later, Wen Qi, Lu Jisheng, and Wang Cui rode in the same car.

The car was completely silent.

Lu Jisheng spent the entire afternoon mentally rehearsing countless times the words he would use to coax Wen Qi.

After careful review, he finally came up with the perfect excuse, but before he could even finish speaking, Wen Qi slapped him to death.

What script plot resonated with him?

What a fucking coincidence.

If it weren't for the actual script, he would have thought Wen Qi was saying those things specifically to satirize him.

At this moment, Lu Jisheng was racking his brains, trying to figure out what he could do to temporarily deceive Wen Qi, even if it was just to keep her calm for a few days.

He has already instructed his lawyer to prepare for filing for divorce.

After getting into the car, Wen Qi completely ignored the thoughts of the two people beside her.

She performed all day, facing so many cameras, and stubbornly resisted looking at the trending topics.

I immediately took out my phone to check the results after getting on the bus.

The trending topics are buzzing with activity, with headlines everywhere.

Both scripts made it into the top ten trending topics, and the search volume for the other three scripts is also continuing to rise.

The popularity of "Phoenix Rising in the Clouds" continues to rise.

The effect was several times better than she had expected yesterday.

As the script's popularity soared, Xinghai Entertainment's reputation also rose accordingly, attracting many industry professionals to its official website.

Wen Qi didn't need to think to guess how excited Li Min must be on the other end of the phone.

As the script gained popularity, Wen's official website was once again flooded with comments from netizens.

It's all because of Li Rui's feudalistic remarks that afternoon.

As the Wen family's steward, Li Rui's every word and action represents the Wen family. This outrageous statement has once again pushed the already crumbling Wen family into the spotlight.

Even the original author of "Phoenix Rising in the Clouds" personally joined the fray.

Every time he tore down a piece of content, he would tag a group of core members of the Wen family, each word sharp and hitting the nail on the head, and the key was that he would curse without using any vulgar language.

The internet is buzzing with excitement.

Wang Cui sat to the side, holding back for a long time, before finally speaking up.

Her voice was soft and hesitant: "Wen...Wen Qi."

Wen Qi didn't even look up: "Let it go."

"..."

Wang Cui's expression froze.

He didn't even bother to care about Wen Qi's attitude: "How much do you know about your father... Ji Sheng's father, that child he has outside?"

Wen Qi looked up from her phone screen and onto Wang Cui's face, then smiled: "I know a lot more than that."

Seeing that Wen Qi didn't intend to elaborate, Wang Cui hesitated for a moment before shamelessly asking, "Which country is he in? Is he Song Mingzhu's?"

She remembered Wen Qi mentioning that Song Mingzhu had a son.

Actually, I was quite scared when I asked that question. Song Mingzhu had dated her younger brother before, and then somehow she met Lu Zhenhua.

She had someone investigate, but they only found out that Song Mingzhu had a son.

We haven't been able to find out whose it is.

She also called her younger brother to ask about Song Mingzhu back then, but he didn't give her a very detailed answer.

It's been too long, I can't remember.

Upon hearing this, Wen Qi sat up straight, adopting Wang Cui's usual condescending attitude: "Cui, you are, after all, a daughter-in-law of the Lu family. Asking these questions shows you're being disrespectful."

"..."

Wang Cui was stunned for a moment.

"..."

Lu Jisheng suffered a heart attack in an instant.

"You, who are so clear-headed, can cover up for your son and have a mistress. You should be more open-minded. How could you ask about Lu Laodeng's illegitimate child?"

"The Lu family having more children is a big deal. Don't worry about anything else. As long as your father is happy, just be generous."

"..."

Wang Cui was rendered speechless by the rebuttal.

Wen Qi propped herself up on the armrest with her elbows, pouting, "Your thinking right now won't do. It's too petty. What if I start learning bad things from you?"
