Chapter 204: 196 Exposing the fake identity in person [2nd Update]
“Hmm, seal script,” Ying Zijin propped her chin with her hand, “Think of it as an anti-counterfeiting mark.”
The female secretary understood.
Generally speaking, designers would leave little easter eggs in their design drafts that only the designer themselves would understand.
There once was a designer who specifically embroidered characters on the clothes they designed.
But they wouldn’t be noticeable under normal circumstances, only in complete darkness would these characters glow.
Still curious, the female secretary asked, “Why the character ‘Charm’?”
It seemed to have no relation to the design theme of these four suits.
“Just a random name I came up with before,” Ying Zijin slowly stretched and her tone grew huskier, “Use it and don’t overthink.”
The female secretary, with great tact, did not ask any further, “Boss, are you going to attend the fashion show?”
“No need,” Ying Zijin yawned, “Just find someone to stand in for me.”
The female secretary had already gotten used to her boss’s personality, “Should we use the ‘Charm’ character as the designer’s name then?”
The competing works still needed to be labeled.
“You decide,” Ying Zijin nodded slightly, “I’m going to read a script.”
The secretary left.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
Without looking up from her computer, Ying Zijin said, “Come in.”
The door opened, and Shang Yaozhi entered, still fully armed.
He stood still, hesitating, suddenly unsure of how to address her.
To this day, Shang Yaozhi still couldn’t understand why Ying Zijin had suddenly become the Executive Director of Chuguang Media.
And as though seeing through the turmoil in his heart, the girl flicked her eyelids, “Call me anything, it’s just a code name, no big deal.”
“Miss Ying,” Shang Yaozhi paused before continuing, “I came to tell you, I shot a TV drama before I left Star Entertainment, and it’s about to be aired.”
“I know,” Ying Zijin looked up, “a period drama set in the Republic of China era, Star Entertainment made you pair up with the company’s actress and even deliberately hyped up a couple pairing.”
Shang Yaozhi gave a slight, sardonic smile and sighed, “That’s right, so I was wondering if it might cause any trouble for the company.”
Ever since he had won the award for Best Actor, the scripts looking for him had increased.
His agent said that since he was determined to make a foray into the film industry, he should do fewer TV dramas.
But both he and his agent were under the control of Star Entertainment.
With his family involved as well, he had to do whatever Star Entertainment asked of him.
So whether he was shooting movies or dramas, or occasionally being invited to variety shows as a mentor, Star Entertainment required him to always bring along other stars from the company.
Before this TV drama, he had been invited to “Youth 101” to be a mentor for the singer-songwriter group.
Underneath him, there was a trainee from Star Entertainment.
It was just that the trainee’s skills were so poor that even with Star Entertainment tampering with the fan voting, they still couldn’t make the trainee debut in the end.
And this time, due to the forced romantic pairing, his fanbase was also suffering a lot.
“No trouble,” Ying Zijin said indifferently, “You are an A-list signee, the company is supposed to take care of everything for you. Don’t worry, your drama has several TV stations and streaming platforms buying it.”
“A conservative estimate, it’ll bring in tens of millions, not a loss.”
Such was the drawing power of a top-tier Best Actor.
Not to mention, due to recent events, Shang Yaozhi’s fame had risen to another level again, and his fanbase was united as never before.
Shang Yaozhi nodded, and after thinking for a bit, he added, “Miss Ying, many people in the circle have been asking me who the miraculous doctor I met is, but I haven’t told them.”
“I treat people based on fate,” Ying Zijin’s gaze flickered slightly, “Those with fate will meet.”
As absurd as the idea of bringing people back from the dead seemed, Shang Yaozhi knew it had really happened.
Moreover, the entertainment industry tended to believe somewhat in these things.
He felt that Ying Zijin had saved him from the brink of death and must have paid a corresponding price.
“Not bad,” Ying Zijin glanced at him, “You were easier to save.”
Saving an ordinary person was just a convenient act for her, as long as their allotted time hadn’t run out.
“Then, thank you, Miss Ying,” Shang Yaozhi nodded his head, “If there’s anything you need, I’ll make sure it gets done.”
“There is one thing,” Ying Zijin pondered for a moment, “the company has a series of outfits, with two designs for men that need promoting. It’s up to you, though, no pressure.”
“A small matter,” Shang Yaozhi smiled, “I’ve said before, whatever Miss Ying needs, just ask, as long as I can do it.”
After he left, he met with his agent.
His agent hurried to greet him, “Yaozhi, how did it go, did you see Chuchuan’s Executive Director?”
“I did,” Shang Yaozhi didn’t intend to reveal Ying Zijin’s identity, “How are things after you infiltrated the fan group with your alternate account?”
He truly didn’t understand why, as a grown man, eighty percent of his fanbase would consist of “mom fans.”
The agent’s expression stiffened upon this mention.
He sighed and took out his phone, “It’s of no use, see for yourself.”
Shang Yaozhi glanced at it and once again saw the screen full of ‘zai zai’: “…”

Verdant.
Ying Yuexuan originally belonged to the Elite Class.
After spending a year as an exchange student in O continent, she returned to class 19.
“Miss Ying… Yuexuan,” her classmates greeted her, “We really missed you during this year you were away.”
Ying Yuexuan was always sensitive, and she naturally noticed the change in the way her classmates addressed her.
She felt puzzled but didn’t dwell on it much.
She took out the prepared gifts and distributed them.
Her classmates were delighted to receive the gifts.
The boy sitting next to her saw Ying Yuexuan writing and drawing in her notebook and asked curiously, “Yuexuan, what is this?”
“These are study materials I brought back from Yilan Public School, I’m preparing to give a copy to my sister,” Ying Yuexuan said with a smile, “But it’s all in English, and my sister can’t understand it, so I’m translating it.”
As she spoke, the whole classroom fell silent.
All eyes were on her, filled with a hint of astonishment.
Ying Yuexuan was taken aback, “What’s wrong? Is there something amiss?”
“Yuexuan, there’s no need,” one of the students said, “Ying Zijin doesn’t need these.”
“What are you laughing at,” Ying Yuexuan frowned, “It’s precisely because she needs them that I brought them back.”
If Ying Zijin’s academic performance improved, Zhong Manhua wouldn’t be so biased anymore.
Zhong Zhiwan smiled and didn’t remind her, her words laced with a hint of mockery, “How come I heard she’s moved out of your house? Are you still treating her as your real sister?”
However, Ying Yuexuan apparently didn’t know that Ying Zijin was the top of the class in the mid-term exams?
She really looked down on Ying Yuexuan.
To where had Old Master Zhong’s heart tilted, yet Ying Yuexuan had no response whatsoever.
She didn’t expect Ying Yuexuan to do anything; she would have to handle things herself.
Once she’s connected to the Mu family, her status will naturally rise.

For the students of class 19, days of tutoring were joyful because it meant they could listen to Ying Zijin’s lessons more.
This time, at the end-of-term exams, class 19 made it into the top six, which made the head of academic affairs so happy that he ate an extra bun.
Ying Zijin came down from the lectern and wiped her hands.
“Daddy Ying, are we going out tonight?” Xiu Yu slung an arm over her shoulder, “We’ve got nothing else to do anyway.”
“Not today,” Ying Zijin slung her backpack over her shoulder, with one hand in her pocket, she nodded slightly, “I’ve got some medicine to deliver.”
Even though Fu Yunshen’s wounds healed faster than others, good health and fitness never hurt.
She knew that Fu Yunshen wasn’t staying at the Fu Family home but at a private apartment in the city center.
It wasn’t far from Verdant. A twenty-minute journey.
Although it was a private apartment, the security system was very strict, and many celebrities lived there.
To facilitate her entry, Fu Yunshen had given her an access card.
Ying Zijin glanced around, entered the building door, and took the elevator up.
She unlocked the door with her key, placed her backpack on the sofa, and went to the bedroom inside.
The bedroom door was open.
The man was half-leaning against the wall with a phone in his hand, turning his head towards the window, engrossed in a phone conversation.
His profile was handsome, his aura detached and clear.
He was often gentle, even towards a cat or a dog, he would patiently bandage their wounds.
It was hard to imagine that someone who had gone through prolonged darkness could still be so tender.
But at that moment, he was surrounded by a chilling aura of decisiveness, wrapped in malice.
His eyes, usually curved like peach blossoms, were now coated with a layer of frost.
Like a blade forged in fire, he was sharply intimidating, ready to strike at any moment.
Just standing there, he was like a lofty mountain, extremely oppressive.
Ying Zijin knew he must be busy with something, she paused for a moment, ready to step back out.
But then she heard a sentence, which came out very clearly from that ancient-style black phone.
It would have been difficult not to hear it.
“Commander, IBI has started recruiting; are you really not planning to come and take a look?”
