“Ah—!”
A shrill male scream tore through the night, shattering the tranquility of the seaside vacation villa.
In an instant, the cameramen lurking in various rooms emerged as if out of thin air, hoisting their long lenses and rushing toward the male guest’s room where the scream had come from.
Su Qingqing, who had just opened her eyes only to find herself in pajamas lying on someone else’s bed, was a bit dazed.
At that moment, across from her at the foot of the bed, a half-naked handsome man was clutching a bedsheet around himself, screaming like a maiden who had been violated: “Su Qingqing, you… what are you trying to do to me?!”
Su Qingqing was startled too. Damn, I’ve been cultivating on the mountain for two hundred years, and I’ve never seen anything this eyesore—skinny with no abs or pecs, like a scrawny dog, and this man can’t even bother to keep his clothes on!
Her eyes were tainted!
And he was even in the same bed as her!
The next second, a dull “thud” sounded.
Followed by an even more piercing “Ah—” scream.
The half-naked handsome man wrapped in the bedsheet at the foot of the bed was sent flying off the bed by a single kick from her…
And the cameramen who had rushed in with their long lenses happened to capture the whole scene.
After the room lights were switched on, the entire place fell into an eerie silence.
Until the half-naked handsome man, who had been kicked off the bed, struggled to his feet and pointed at Su Qingqing, cursing in outrage: “You… you you you, Su Qingqing, you’ve gone too far!
I just rejected you this afternoon, and you sneak into my bed at night, and… and you even kick me in a fit of shame and anger!
Su Qingqing, don’t push your luck!”
The cameras instantly turned to Su Qingqing, who was still on the bed.
Su Qingqing was wearing a pink bear-print pajama set, a stark contrast to her cute pajamas—her voluminous wavy hair and her exquisitely striking, fox-spirit-like face.
She habitually tossed her hair back and calmly uttered a single sentence from her red, beautiful thin lips: “Sorry, I drank too much and walked into the wrong room. Kicking a man was just a reflex when I opened my eyes.”
The half-naked handsome man, Xiao Yufan: “…”
All the cameramen and on-site staff present: “…”
Ten minutes later, Su Qingqing, now changed and neatly dressed, was summoned to the workroom by Director Zhang, the head director of the dating show.
Director Zhang pointed at her nose and cursed outright: “Su Qingqing, this time you’ve really gone too far!
If it weren’t for the contract we already signed with you, do you think you’d even be qualified to appear on our show as you are now?!
You’re nothing but a fake heiress kicked out of the Su family, a stray dog—and instead of keeping a low profile, you’re out there causing even more trouble!
I’m announcing right now: you’ve broken our show’s rules, caused serious negative impact on our program, and violated our contract. You’re officially kicked off the show!
Once your agent arrives, I’ll have a proper talk with her about your breach-of-contract penalty and the public apology you’ll need to post on Weibo after the show airs!”
After unloading his tirade, Director Zhang didn’t give Su Qingqing a chance to explain and stormed off, muttering as he walked away about how unlucky it was to run into a crazy woman like Su Qingqing.
Left alone in the workroom, Su Qingqing rubbed her nose after being scolded. Well… there really wasn’t much for her to explain, because tonight she had indeed taken the initiative to walk into his room and climb into his bed…
It was just that the process in between was rather bizarre and strange.
She was left alone in the workroom, waiting for her agent to pick her up.
During that hour of waiting, Su Qingqing absorbed the memories of this body and finally figured out what had happened.
She had originally been a genius in a Metaphysical Cultivation World brimming with spiritual energy—exceptionally talented and gifted. In just two hundred years of cultivation within her sect, she was already ready for Tribulation Crossing and Ascension.
Unexpectedly, during the Tribulation Crossing, she discovered that her soul was incomplete—one of her three souls and seven spirits was missing. As a result, the Tribulation failed, leading to the Death of the Physical Body and Dissolution of the Dao, and she perished on the spot.
To her surprise, perhaps by the blessing and mercy of the ancestors, she didn’t suffer Soul Dispersion. Instead, she transmigrated to this world called “modern society,” becoming an adopted heiress of the Su family in S City, China.
Not only did she share the same name, but what was even more coincidental was that as she closed her eyes to sense and calculated with her fingers, she discovered that the missing spirit from her past life was exactly in this body.
Perfect. Her original self was a genius in the Metaphysical Cultivation World, while the spirit she had lost was in this world, playing the role of a brainless, scandal-ridden celebrity.
An hour later, her agent, Sister Xu, rushed over.
On her way there, she had already gotten the full picture from Director Zhang and knew roughly what had happened.
After arriving, Sister Xu pointed at Su Qingqing’s nose and launched into a scathing tirade.
“Su Qingqing! Do you even have a brain?! How dare you pull something like this?!
It was one thing when you used to be a lovesick fool, constantly harassing those male celebrities—your family would pay to clean up your messes,
“Now your sister, the true heiress of the Su family, has been found, and you’ve been kicked out of the Su family with nothing. How can you still be so reckless? Do you really think someone will still have your back?!”
Sister Xu was truly baffled. Su Qingqing was the hardest artist she had ever managed.
A rich heiress who bought her way into the industry, entering the entertainment circle mainly to chase after celebrities. Because she spoke without thinking, she had offended the fans of most male artists in the fandom, leaving her with a mountain of scandals.
She was constantly on the trending topic “When will Su Qingqing leave the entertainment industry” on Weibo, repeatedly cursed and vilified by netizens.
But before, Su Qingqing had only been all talk—bold in words but timid in action, and her private life was still clean.
To do something like climbing into someone else’s CP’s bed in front of all those cameras while filming a dating variety show…
That genuinely shocked her.
Sister Xu had at least managed Su Qingqing for a year. During that year, when Su Qingqing was still the favored heiress of the Su family, she had been quite generous with her spending, and Sister Xu had earned enough from kickbacks to buy an apartment.
She couldn’t bring herself to truly abandon her. Not giving up, she probed cautiously: “There’s no one else here now. Tell me, is there some misunderstanding in all this?
Everyone in the industry knows about that Xiao Yufan—he’s always desperate to be famous and loves to stir up hype. Did he set this up with you? Do you have any evidence, like chat logs?”
Under Sister Xu’s hopeful gaze, Su Qingqing slowly shook her head and said, “No, it really was me who went over on my own in the middle of the night.”
Sister Xu swallowed hard. “…Why would you do something like that?”
Su Qingqing’s expression turned serious in an instant: “Because I think I was possessed.”
Sister Xu: “…”
OMG, this was just speechless beyond speechless—utterly dumbfounded!
She took a deep breath: “Su Qingqing, you’re done. You’re really done this time. Just wait to go back to the company and face a lawsuit, and pay a hefty penalty fee!”
Su Qingqing tilted her head, utterly confused. She was telling the truth—the original owner had indeed been set up, fallen into a trap, and gotten possessed, hadn’t she?
Why wouldn’t anyone believe her?
