The Female Celebrity Transmigrated into the Daughter of Her Arch Nemesis

Chapter 108

Wan Rouning had thought it all through. She would wait a couple of days for Second Master Ji to calm down and realize that offending her, the queen of the screens, was offending the woman he loved. When he was looking for a way to make amends, she would go apologize.

She would also casually give him some tips for chasing after the woman he loved. Once he had won over the beauty, the whole thing would naturally blow over.

As for Fang Yang asking her to promote Tan Ruo...

From what she knew, the skills and resources of the queen weren't bad. As long as Second Master Ji stopped making trouble for her, she was bound to do well in the future.

Wan just needed to provide some auditions with top directors, and the rest was up to Tan Ruo to grasp the opportunity.

In other words, with a simple verbal apology, she could gain a good marriage prospect. It was quite a worthwhile deal.

She only found out about Wan's plans later, after she had gotten audition opportunities for many good scripts with the Wan family's help. By then, she was happy to play dumb.

After all, everything had ended happily. Not only had Ji Mochen come around and won over his sweetheart, but her own resources had risen to a new level.

Even that rascal Fang Yang's quality of life hadn't decreased after marriage. On the contrary, it had risen several notches.

Ji Ruochu had only been so blunt in retorting to Fang Yang because she knew the temperaments of the couple. That day, when Fang started tactlessly mocking Ji Mochen again, she just couldn't hold back.

Ji Mochen's past foolishness was his own fault, and she hadn't made things easy for him either, so that evened out.

But now things were different. She could complain about her old dad, but others couldn't openly mock him like that.

Thinking this, the little girl poked at the screen of her phone and exited the social media app.

Then she rolled over and continued her nap time.

What? You're asking how she could still sleep so soundly. Wasn't she worried things would continue to escalate?

Yes, she really wasn't worried.

Things like this, if they were fake they wouldn't hold up, and if they held up they couldn't be fake. Besides, she was just a child. She'd leave these grownup matters for the adults to worry about.

Zzz...

Tap.

Not long after the little one fell asleep, the door to her room was quietly opened.

Her parents stealthily peeked in from outside.

"Is daughter asleep?" Ling Chujin asked softly.

"Seems like it." The old dad instantly breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried his voice earlier was too loud and woke up his daughter.

The couple exchanged a glance, then just as stealthily withdrew, silently closing the door.

"What did Qin say? When will they coordinate with the school to clarify things?" As they headed toward the study, the couple discussed things.

"They'll release a statement today." Remembering the malicious conjectures about his daughter online, Ji Mochen's expression was still ugly.

"What about third brother? Does this impact the family?"

"It's fine, he said to just do as we see fit."

"Then—"

Just as Ling Chujin was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Ji Mochen's phone rang again.

"Big brother?" Seeing the caller ID, Ji Mochen was surprised. His big brother rarely called him, being busy to the point of flying every day.

"Hello, brother..."

...

"Go ahead, I'm listening."

...

"Targeting you?" Ji Mochen's brows furrowed. He immediately grabbed Ling Chujin's phone. The top hot search had changed to "On How Great It is to Have an Uncle in Office."

...

"Alright, I understand. I'll contact Qin's side and wait for your notice."

After hanging up, Ji Mochen immediately called his manager. Ling Chujin started carefully reading the current hot searches.

Unlike the previous discussions about the Ji family relying on their shareholder status to use backdoors, the leaked information this time was clearly more rigorous.

It first talked in detail about the school's educational philosophy and admission requirements over the years, elaborating on the school's consistently fair and impartial admissions process.

It then pointed out that although the Ji family was one of the school's board members, the other board members weren't easy to fool around either.

Over the past decade plus, the children of other board members had gotten in through the normal process like everyone else.

If the school dared to make an exception for the Ji family, it would be like slapping the other powerful figures in the face.

Up to this point, some people might still think this was an article whitewashing the Ji family.

But after reading the following analysis, it was clear just how vicious the intent was. This was a classic bait and switch approach.

First deny the possibility of the Ji family using their name to get preferential treatment, then bring up—

"While the Jis themselves may not, the important official Uncle Ji in the government might not necessarily be above it.

As I understand, he holds great power over development approvals in the city.

The land area of Capital Kindergarten is so huge, do all the facilities conform to urban construction standards?

Is there any impact on the lives of nearby residents?

If I remember right, didn't Capital Kindergarten get sued some years ago over demolition and relocation compensation for building an equestrian field?

In the end that case just fizzled out. Whether Uncle Ji had a hand in it, we'll never know.

But...an official who got two quick promotions in a single year probably isn't simple, right?

What do you think?"

With that, the analysis article ended, but the curiosity of netizens had already been piqued.

They immediately started digging into the Ji family's history, from when Older Ji performed brilliantly under pressure, to his three children.

After some thought, this analysis really gave one the chills. The three siblings each held tremendous influence over the political, business, and entertainment worlds.

No wonder Ji Mochen was able to get promoted so quickly. In little over a decade he went from a local low-level official to an important post in the capital.

Even worse, the kindergarten called to say they had identified the person who leaked the information.

It wasn't a teacher at the school, but a gardener who had been pruning plants outside the window when the little girl went to the office that day.

But before the public opinion fervor started, he had already resigned. Now they couldn't get in contact with him.

Hearing this, the couple's brows instantly furrowed. So they couldn't confirm whether this person still had any materials he could use for malicious editing?

As for clarification, the school would provide the Ji family with Ji Ruochu's personal evaluation results, as well as her intelligence test report.

If needed, they could issue a certificate on the school's behalf.

Other things, like videos of Ji Ruochu's performance at school, they could give to the board, but couldn't release publicly.

After all, there were too many children involved. Even with mosaics, many families didn't agree.

After receiving this news, the couple fell silent.

"What did big brother say?"

"Just that this is targeted at him, and told us to wait a few more days to see what the ulterior motives are."

"But if we drag this out, even if we get the school's certificate and Ruoruo's test results later, no one will believe them anymore."

After all, Ji Mochen had been involved in many scandals over the years. For any false ones, he would personally tear the other party down.

Now with such a huge matter, if he stayed silent, it would be tantamount to acquiescence. Even if they revealed evidence later, it would still be suspected of being fabricated.

"Big brother also said...this may be related to Baijin Village."

Upon hearing this, Ling Chujin's face instantly paled. "You mean...there were still some who slipped through the net back then?"
