Chapter 70: The Man’s Forehead Rested Against Hers

“You deliberately said I disliked you to twist the situation into a personal grudge. This way, the negative information I recently exposed about you becomes less credible. After all, if someone dislikes another person, they’re likely to exaggerate and badmouth them, right?”

“Besides, by stepping up to defend your friends, you can play the role of the kind-hearted little fairy and win sympathy points from the fans of Shen Mingxuan and Ji Tong.”

“Finally, have I ever criticized you in a roundabout way? I always do it directly.”

【Wow, that analysis is on point.】

【I was just about to get swayed by Bai Ruoruo’s words, thinking maybe Jiang Mi was bringing personal emotions to work and targeting Shen Mingxuan and Ji Tong. Oops, my bad.】

【Ji Tong’s fans were just attacking Mimi so viciously, but now they’ve gone silent. Have they realized Bai Ruoruo was just using them as pawns?】

【I can see it now. Her relationships with Shen Mingxuan and Ji Tong aren’t simple. She’s definitely a master of manipulation.】

At this point, Jiang Mi turned to Ji Tong. “Also, a lawyer’s letter regarding your defamation, slander, and false accusations about me having an improper relationship with you will be sent to you shortly. Please check your mail.”

Ji Tong was stunned. How did this escalate to a lawyer’s letter?

Jiang Mi didn’t care about his reaction and suddenly remembered something.

“Oh, right. That time at the café, I saw a man and a woman sitting intimately on each other, in a rather peculiar position. I took a picture—it turned out pretty ugly. Should I share it for everyone to enjoy?”

Ji Tong was shocked. “What are you talking about?”

Bai Ruoruo’s face instantly turned pale. “I-I didn’t… Director, isn’t it time to start the competition?”

Ji Tong quickly echoed, “Yes, yes, let’s not waste time.”

Jiang Mi immediately turned to Gu Chuan, her tone soft and playful, “Tsk tsk, they’re guilty. I was just teasing them anyway. Secretly taking photos is illegal; I would never do that.”

Bai Ruoruo and Ji Tong: “?”

【Hahaha!】

【After distancing herself from the random jerk, she sweetly reports back to her boyfriend. She’s really so obedient.】

【The expressions on Bai Ruoruo and Ji Tong’s faces were truly terrified. Could there be something between them?】

【Suddenly noticing how nice Emperor Shen’s hairstyle looks today—just a touch of green on top.】

The competition officially began after that.

With five teams, a draw determined which team would get a bye to the next round.

Jiang Mi wasn’t interested in this kind of luck-based draw. Heh, this isn’t the kind of game a perpetual loser should be involved in!

Surprisingly, the team getting the bye was Gu Chuan and Chen Wanruo.

As a major character in this world, the villain naturally had strong luck, but it shouldn’t have been enough to surpass the combined luck of the male and female leads.

Gu Chuan—who exactly is he?

Jiang Mi called out to the long-absent system in her mind, “Dumb Dumb, give me a detailed profile of the villain.”

The system, in its usual cute and silly electronic voice, replied.

【You’re already with the villain, so if you want to know his size and length, wouldn’t it be quicker to just feel it directly?】

Jiang Mi closed her eyes tightly. “Go to the timeout room.”

【Whimpering… Boss Jiang, you’re clearly drooling over the villain’s body. Where did I go wrong?】

In the next second, Jiang Mi sent Dumb Dumb straight to the timeout room.

At this moment, the director announced the first competing teams.

Jiang Mi and Ji Tong vs. Fu Li and Yang Yang.

As Jiang Mi stepped onto the field, suddenly, a rough, heated hand grasped her wrist.

In the next moment, she was spun around, almost crashing into the man’s chest.

She felt a warmth on her forehead.

The man’s forehead was pressed against hers.

She lifted her eyes, immediately locking onto the deep, dark eyes of the man. Her heartbeat stumbled for a moment.

Her voice came out soft and tender, with a hint of shyness.

“Gu Chuan?”

“Be good. All my good luck is yours.”
