n“That’s true.” Muye nodded. “It’s probably just a coincidence.”
nShe didn’t have time to look at the license plate number clearly, so she couldn’t confirm it.

nIn the blink of an eye, the day that Jiang Xun was supposed to participate in Accelerated Flight came.
nThe program organizers released a trailer for the new episode’s guests.
nEach episode had six permanent guests and two other guests from outside the entertainment industry. This episode’s guests included actors Xu Miaotong, Zhang Xiangyou and Zhang Kangwang, singers Li Ruhan and Cheng Shixiang, and a supermodel, Yu Mingshu.
nThe netizens were looking forward to this part of the lineup.
nZhang Xiangyou was handsome and popular, so he naturally had a lot of fans.
nZhang Kangwang was a capable middle-aged actor. His performances in dramas never disappointed people, and he was very popular with passers-by.
nXu Miaotong was a sweet girl and had a good reputation.
nThe other three were also people with names and abilities in their respective professional fields.
nThe official webpage of “Accelerated Flight” did not announce Mufeng’s presence as a guest. It only released a snapshot of him, saying that this guest was a well-known CEO who could satisfy all the fantasies of romance novel fans.
nLooking at the silhouette, he does indeed seem quite handsome and young.
nInb4 it’s photoshopped and it turns out to be a middle-aged, fat man.
nlol the organizers better not be lying. I’m really looking forward to it.
nOrganizers, are you sure that this CEO is someone that we all know?
nDon’t hype it up lmao what if it turns out to be someone that we don’t know at all
nCan I boldly hope that it will be someone from one of the Eight Great Families?
nKeep coping lol there’s no way the organizers would even think about them!
nA CEO from one of the Eight Great Families? The organizers definitely won’t invite them. It’s time to stop huffing that copium.
nHowever, the marketing for the episode had successfully roused interest in the show. When the official announcement reached these seven people, the netizens were still filled with anticipation.
nFinally, Accelerated Flight’s marketing team officially announced that Jiang Xun would be the last guest in their upcoming episode.
nJiang Xun? Who’s that?
nWow! It’s actually our Jiang Xun!
nJiang Jiang must be doing really well to be participating in a variety show!
nThat’s what I’m saying. I’m really looking forward to it!
nNo way, an internet celebrity? Although this show has always been looking for guests from all walks of life, it shouldn’t go as far as looking for an internet celebrity, right?
nJiang Xun switched to his alternate account, Jiangxun’s Hater, which she hadn’t used for a long time.
nJiangxun’s Hater: Why are the organizers getting an internet celebrity? That’s too low! Also, if Jiang Xun has any self-awareness, she shouldn’t go into the entertainment industry.there’s a clear barrier between Internet celebrities and mainstream celebrities, but Jiang Xun’s ignoring it entirely and standing with mainstream celebrities. The difference is stark, but it seems she’s not afraid of being overshadowed by them.
nOur Jiang Xun is very beautiful, alright! It was during Shanpin Influencer Day’s livestream that she converted all her haters into fans!
nDemonic Positioning: At that time, it was really a big turning point for the haters. The Shanpin Influencer Day festival livestream proved that Jiang Xun doesn’t look inferior to mainstream celebrities at all.
nJiangxun’s Hater: Heh! How do you know that the Shanpin Influencer Day festival livestream did not add the beauty filter and long legs special effect? Have you ever seen Jiang Xun in person? Shanpin Influencer Day’s livestream used so many beauty filters, yet you still believe in the livestream?
nThe fans: …
nThey actually couldn’t find any evidence to refute it.
nSystem: This is the first time I’ve seen someone so ruthless when it comes to slandering themselves. Host, you’re quite a hound, huh.
nJiang Xun had hit the nail on the head, making it impossible for the fans to refute her points.
nSplit Underpants: Is she beautiful only because of the filters, or is she actually that prettyl? Won’t we know when we watch the show? What’s the point of fighting now?
nJiang Xun had only gained some popularity in the online celebrity circle for the time being, but when it came to the Internet as a whole, she was still relatively unknown. An online celebrity definitely could not compare to a mainstream celebrity’s popularity. They had fewer fans than a mainstream celebrity and as such weren’t as well known.
nMost of the netizens did not know who Jiang Xun was at all.
nAfter learning that the organizers had actually invited an online celebrity for the new episode, most of the people were confused.
nCan an online celebrity give up on entering the entertainment industry?
nThey can still rely on filters to survive in the circle of internet celebrities, so even if they fail to enter the entertainment industry, it’s fine for them.
nEvery single one of them counts. Internet celebrities who enter the entertainment industry are usually overshadowed when it comes to their beauty.
nYeah, especially those who get into acting. It gets to the point where I think that actresses who are average-looking suddenly shoot up in attractiveness when compared to those internet celebrities.
nI went and looked up Jiang Xun. She has so many tricks up her sleeve!
nBreaking rocks on her chest, livestreaming herself eating, running a 100 km marathon—she does everything. As long as it can bring her popularity, she can be said to have no moral integrity at all.
nThis kind of person should stay away from my brother. She will do anything to become famous. When the time comes, she’ll probably take advantage of my brother’s popularity.
nSeeing the negative comments increasing, Jiang Xun was in a good mood. She even ate two more bowls of rice than usual.

nSoon, it was Friday.
nJiang Xun finished her classes in the afternoon and was about to leave for the neighboring Sanshui City. The shoot was to take place on Saturday, but Yicheng had told her that the filming session would likely keep going til it was late at night, so Jiang Xun decided to come back on Sunday instead.
nShe was going to stay there for two nights, so she brought a backpack with her and stuffed two sets of clothes, her pajamas, and some toiletries in it.
nAs soon as Jiang Xun exited the school gate, she saw two cars parked by the roadside.
nOne of the cars looked very familiar. It looked like the one President Qin would drive around.
nYicheng got out of the car behind him and took Jiang Xun’s backpack with a smile. He turned around and put it into Mufeng’s car. “I originally planned to send you to Sanshui City myself, but since President Qin is also going, he’ll drive you there. I won’t be going”
nAfter all, he was still the general manager of Shanpin Media. He still had a lot of things to do.
nNo wonder that car looked familiar, Jiang Xun thought. It really was Mufeng’s car.
nAs soon as Yicheng finished speaking, the rear window of Mufeng’s car rolled down, revealing his sunglasses-wearing face. Even through the sunglasses, he seemed to give off an oppressive aura that was colder than usual.
nSince Jiang Xun’s backpack was already in his car, Jiang Xun couldn’t refuse.
n“Thank you, Mr. Qin.” Jiang Xun said goodbye to Yicheng and sat down in the back seat next to Mufeng.
nThis time, Mufeng had someone else driving the car.
n“If there’s anything, contact me anytime.” Yicheng bent down and spoke to Jiang Xun through the window.
nThat said, with Mufeng around, even if there was a problem, Mufeng would have to solve it. If even he couldn’t, then there wasn’t much of a point in contacting Yicheng himself.
nJiang Xun agreed, and the driver drove off.
n“There are snacks in the storage compartment and drinks in the small fridge in front,” Mufeng said. “Feel free to use them.”
nJiang Xun didn’t hesitate. Thinking about the amount of exercise she would be doing tomorrow, she felt that she needed to replenish her strength.
nAt this moment, Mufeng looked at his phone and said, “I just received a message. The organizers have arranged for a large number of fans to wait both inside and outside of the hotel. If you don’t want to be exposed, wear a mask to cover your face.”
