?Chapter 47: Chapter 43 Love for the House Extends Even to the Crows on its Roof   Chapter 47: Chapter 43 Love for the House Extends Even to the Crows on its Roof                                   After Mu Yun helped Jiang Ning up from the ground, she picked up the keys and phone ced beside her and paid the coaching fee for the uing half year at the front desk.

    She also added Mu Yun as a WeChat friend, which would make it more convenient for her to visit in the future.

    Sweating during the exercise felt exhrating, but the sticky feeling after sweating was quite ufortable. After leaving the Martial Arts Gym, Jiang Ning didn’t go anywhere else. Instead, she drove home, and the first thing she did when she arrived was to take a shower.

    During dinner, Jiang Ning received a phone call from the staff of “Survive for 30 Days,” asking her if she would be avable the next day to shoot the show’s promotional images at nine in the morning at the Orange Entertainment Building.

    Jiang Ning estimated that the show must have confirmed all its guests, and she nodded, “Okay, I’ll be there on time.”

    Qi Family Vi.

    Qi Jingshan and Qi Chen both returned home earlier than usual, coincidentally.

    Not seeing Qi Xingzhou near the door, Qi Chen asked, “Mom, where’s Xingzhou?”

    “He’s in his room upstairs,” Ji Shuang nced towards the second floor and indicated, “After Jiang Ning left, your brother stood by the door eagerly watching for half an hour before retreating to his own room.”

    Qi Chen breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as he didn’t go to the hotel, that’s good.”

    Staying at home, sulking was definitely better than lurking around a hotel elevator entrance.

    Behind him, Qi Jingshan took out a folded A4 paper from his briefcase without a word and handed it to Ji Shuang. She took it, confused, “What is this?”

    Qi Jingshan said, “Jiang Ning’s information.”

    From the Qi family’s action of having their staff call Jiang Ning, it was clear that the Qi family members, although they held power over the hotel, followed the rules and did not use their position to invade the privacy of their guests.

    It was only after meeting Jiang Ning and judging her temperament and character from her demeanor that Qi Jingshan thought of having a private detective investigate Jiang Ning’s background.

    If during today’s lunch the Qi family members had discovered any insincerity or bad conduct in Jiang Ning, even if Qi Xingzhou loitered at the elevator every day, they would not have allowed the two to meet a second time, let alone investigate Jiang Ning’s identity, given Qi Xingzhou’s unique situation.

    There was only a short amount of text on the thin A4 paper, and Ji Shuang finished reading it in a few minutes.

    “An orphan? Rted to the Huo Family? Kicked out a few days ago?” Ji Shuang frowned slightly, her face showing disapproval of the Huo Family’s actions, “I’ve met Huo Song’s wife. She’s devious and not easy to get along with.”

    Thinking of Jiang Ning’s slender figure, Ji Shuang felt a pang of sympathy, “No wonder she’s so thin. She might have been abused without anyone knowing.”

    Qi Chen, who had already seen the information beforehand, adjusted his sses on the bridge of his nose and spoke in an even tone, “Her daughter even tried to lean on me with a ss of red wine.”

    As a renowned diamond bachelor in Capital City, countless women were trying to get into Qi Chen’s bed.

    It was after a friend from the circle sent him photos of Huo Miao in the entertainment industry and teased him about the incident at the banquet that Qi Chen began to remember that name.

    Ji Shuang felt even sorrier for Jiang Ning hearing Qi Chen’s words.

    “Her rtionship with the Huo Family doesn’t seem so straightforward,” said Qi Jingshan with a steady voice, “She came from the mountains to study in city A, and was alone in Capital City for college until her junior year, when the Huo Family suddenly contacted her and took her back, iming she was a distant rtive who hade to stay.”

    Everyone present was savvy, and they could tell there was something fishy when they heard Qi Jingshan’s words.

    What kind of rtive would have no contact for the first couple of years and then suddenly show up halfway through college?

    Furthermore, ording to Xinguo’s age regtions for new students, Jiang Ning would have been at least eighteen years old when she started her freshman year. By her junior year, she would have been at least twenty.

    When she first arrived in Capital City and faced an unfamiliar environment, that was when Jiang Ning needed the most care and help. Now, after she has been in Capital City for three years, the Huo Family suddenlyes out to help?

    Capital University is not only a prestigious school with a century-long reputation in Capital City, but its ranking and fame are also well-known nationwide. The campus upies an extensive area, not to mention the first-ss facilities and the living environment, which is beyond question.

    Jiang Ning, despite having ess to excellent dormitory amodations, instead chose to live with rtives? And she stayed there until graduation, only to be driven out by the Huo Family a few days ago.

    No matter how one looks at it, the situation seems fishy.

    Ji Shuang trusted her own judgment, “Ning Ning must have been bullied.”

    Qi Jingshan nodded, “We’ve already sent a private detective to investigate. When the timees, we can ask her if she needs the Qi Family’s help.”

    This was the first person towards whom Qi Xingzhou held a favorable impression. The Qi family members generally close ranks and provide protection, extending their affection to Jiang Ning as well.

    Unbeknownst to Jiang Ning, after just one encounter with Qi family members, she had already been silently brought under their wing for protection.

    …

    The next day, Jiang Ning arrived at Orange Entertainment Building on time.

    Having previously been in contact with the staff of the show and having visited the ce when signing the contract, Jiang Ning was quite familiar with the Orange Entertainment Building.

    After being led to the photography studio by a staff member, Jiang Ning found that she was the only one present.

    Filming a promotional video, and the other guests aren’ting?

    Even if the show’s production team wanted to maintain an element of mystery by concealing the guests’ identities from the audience, it seemed odd not to let them know about each other by scheduling separate photo shoots for the promotional materials… Was the production team deliberately stirring things up?

    Jiang Ning began to suspect, since Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng had both appeared, would Huo Miao, who had always been protected by them, be far behind?

    Jiang Ning’s lips curled into a suddenly intrigued smile.

    Participating in a reality show wasn’t scary, but it would be embarrassing for someone with a false identity.

    Though Jiang Ning, partly due to Huo Miao, had been ndered in several hot search discussions, she wasn’t an industry insider and had never had a promotional photo taken before.

    However, her natural attributes were quite camera-friendly, and that was sufficient for the lens.

    Besides, this was a survival reality show, not a celebrity showcase, so the demands on the guests’ promotional photos weren’t particrly stringent.

    Half an hourter, Jiang Ning finished the shoot and walked out of the photography studio, leaving the Orange Building.

    Whether it was because Jiang Ning was thest to shoot or due to the efficiency of the production team of “Survive for 30 Days,” by noon that day, the official Weibo ount of “Survive for 30 Days” had posted the finely retouched promotional image on Mengbo.

    Unlike the production team’s previous method of revealing one guest’s identity every few days, this time they opted to present a grid of nine squares, releasing all the guests’ identity information at once.

    The fact that “Survive for 30 Days” had been produced for eight consecutive years was testament to its high audience ratings and the anticipation it stirred among many viewers each year.

    Whenizens saw the official Weibo post, they excitedly clicked in, initially ready to praise the production team for finally releasing all the guest information at once without keeping them in suspense. But the next second, after seeing the list of guests…

    Netizens: Production team,e out and face your death!
