308 A Family of Four
The netizens became silent.
The affectionate gaze that Zhou Xuefang’s agency had been promoting online for a long time was actually directed at Su Ji?
This scene was still trending on Sky Entertainment’s official Weibo page, as a way to highlight Zhou Xuefang’s amazing acting skills.
[ “What the h.e.l.l??” ]
[ “The look in Si Jingchuan’s eyes has nothing to do with Zhou Xuefang!” ]
Due to the popularity of The Billion Stars, Zhou Xuefang had accepted a lot of commercial appearances during the new year, as well as a few endors.e.m.e.nt deals for food and women’s clothing.
However, within a few days, those that had already started the project sent their lawyers’ letters, while those that had not immediately terminated their contracts.
In the past, Su Qianrou was the only one who made a loss. But now, because of Zhou Xuefang, Sky Entertainment was making a loss.
Feng Meng did not even bother to look for Chen Jing. He called Zhou Xuefang personally and gave her a good scolding. He told her that she would bear all the loss and that the company would not fork out a single cent!
Not only that, but Zhou Xuefang was also banned from making public appearances and partic.i.p.ating in all activities.
She was basically canceled.
Zhou Xuefang had lost her money, was in debt, and her reputation had been ruined. After three years, her efforts were in vain.
As for the ending of The Billion Stars…
She probably wouldn’t even have a chance to appear on camera, let alone be the lead.
Han Junlei gave her a call and told her to play by the rules next time.
After hanging up the phone, he continued to edit the script.
Although the netizens hated Zhou Xuefang, it did not affect the show. She definitely could not appear in the last episode.
In this case, they had to put in more effort on the intimate scene between Gu Shen and Bai Yueguang!
He wanted to use the holidays to write a better ending.
The morning before Chinese New Year’s Eve, Zhou Xuefang was sitting alone in her apartment without turning on the lights.
She still couldn’t figure out what had happened in the past two days.
Everyone kept their distance from her, and the only comfort came from Sonya.
Sonya had sent her a WeChat message, “you can only go up from now on.”
She thought that Sonya would definitely block her after what happened.
But she didn’t.
Sonya wasn’t wrong. It was all her fault for not being able to fight against Su Ji!
At this moment, she didn’t realize that she, who was used to using others, was being used…
Her phone rang. It was her mother.
Her mother was a strong-headed person like her, but she was not as capable as her.
Zhou Xuefang was particularly annoyed when she nagged but couldn’t help.
She didn’t pick up the first call, but she called again a few minutes later.
Only then did Zhou Xuefang answer.
As soon as she picked it up, the person on the other end was indeed nagging non-stop, “I saw that you were polite and well-behaved. There was nothing wrong with you at all. People are really getting worse these days. What right do they have to scold you? I think that rude and overbearing girl should be the one to be blamed!”
Zhou Xuefang rolled her eyes, “mom, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”
“Wait! I’m not done yet.”
“Don’t worry, there are always small setbacks on the road to success. Didn’t your uncle say he could help you? Do you need me to give him a call?”
“Don’t even mention him,” Zhou Xuefang retorted, “he’s not my uncle. He’s Su Ji’s uncle. Besides, he can’t help much!”
“How about I find someone else for you? In the past, many people from our village went to big cities. Maybe they can help you?”
Zhou Xuefang couldn’t take it anymore, “mom, stop messing around! Please don’t tell those poor relatives about me! I won’t be able to get rid of them!”
Then, she hung up the phone.

Today was the day before Chinese New Year’s Eve. A City was decorated with lanterns and streamers, and the city was filled with a festive atmosphere.
In the morning, Xu Mingzhi brought Su Ji to the mall to buy new clothes and New Year’s goods.
Wen Man brought Si Jingbin along.
When they agreed to meet, they said that they would bring their children along.
Xu Mingzhi brought Su Ji. There was nothing wrong with that.
However, Wen Man was hesitating whether she should take care of her eldest son or her youngest son.
Later, when she asked them, the two of them refused to back down as they both wanted to go.
Wen Man was quite surprised, especially at her eldest son, “are you sure? We’re going shopping!”
Si Jingchuan said, “I’ll help you guys carry your things. If you bring Binbin, he’ll just be a burden…”
Wen Man was about to be convinced by him when her youngest son clutched his chest and fell onto the sofa, “mommy, I have been feeling unwell recently. I can ask Su Ji to check my pulse…”
Si Jingchuan: “…”
In the end, Binbin won.
In the shopping mall, Su Ji held Si Jingbin’s hand while Wen Man held Xu Mingzhi’s hand.
They felt like a family.
Su Ji was wearing a black mask and was recognized by her fans in the mall.
At first, she agreed to take photos and sign autographs. When she was signing, Binbin stood obediently to the side with a proud expression on his face.
However, there were too many people and Su Ji lost her patience. She bought a fisherman’s hat and put it on.
Xu Mingzhi and Wen Man’s purchasing power was amazing. They increased the GDP of the entire shopping mall by themselves.
The two of them hired two luggage carts and four macho men to help them carry the things they bought.
Su Ji and Si Jingbin did not have much desire to shop.
Su Ji was only here to accompany her mother. As for Binbin, he was here on a date!
When they reached the furniture store, Xu Mingzhi waved to her daughter, “come on, baby, let’s choose a couplet.”
Su Ji walked to the front.
A few minutes later, the mother and daughter had their first argument in this life.
Both of them looked at a couplet, but they had different opinions.
Xu Mingzhi turned to look at Wen Man, “which one do you think is better?”
Wen Man came over with Binbin in her arms.
The couplet that Xu Mingzhi was holding had the writing:
“Create a great career and prosper.”
“Have ambitions to bring glory.”
How extravagant.
Then, she looked at Su Ji’s:
“Wealth thrives in the precious land.”
“Fortune shines at home.”
They had similar meanings, so it was difficult to choose.
…
The saleswoman stole a glance and wanted to give some advice, but then she realized that the two couplets they had chosen were the ones that had been in the store for several years and could not be sold.
As long as they bought one of them.
Since they were similar, the vote was purely based on feelings.
Si Jingbin pointed at Su Ji and said, “I like yours!”
Wen Man said, “although it is not bad..but I choose hers.”
Su Ji lifted her chin, “2 to 2.”
Xu Mingzhi frowned.
However, she soon found a loophole, “baby, your vote doesn’t count. Binbin can’t read at all.”
Then, she looked at the salesperson happily, “wrap this up for me.”
Su Ji glanced at Si Jingbin and remained silent for a few seconds. She did not want to be outdone, “wrap this up too.” Then, she raised her eyebrows at Madam Xu, “I’ll stick it on my door.”
“Alright, do whatever you want.’
The saleswoman quickly wrapped them up.
Getting rid of the old goods in one go!
How lucky!
The four of them shopped from morning to afternoon. Xu Mingzhi and Su Ji’s stamina bars were still full, but Wen Man’s body was weak and her face was pale.
Xu Mingzhi stood at the top of the stairs and looked around. She finally chose a restaurant that had an interesting name, “let’s go to that restaurant for a meal and rest.”
Su Ji and Wen Man looked at the restaurant.
The name of the store was “Wild Lily”.
