After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 16 New Mission

If Jiang Kaiyuan's perception of Jiang Lingxi's changes had improved, then Lin Xuefei, just a wall away, felt a bit depressed.

Previously, Jiang Lingxi was troublesome in various ways. While she was irritated by having such a self-centered temporary colleague, her immaturity highlighted Lin Xuefei's wisdom and grace, which she could barely tolerate.

But now, Jiang Lingxi had changed.

Although she no longer had to endure Jiang Lingxi, she felt more frustrated.

Ironically, she had to suppress this frustration in front of the cameras. But now, in the bedroom with the cameras off, she finally dared to call her manager to vent.

"I suspect Jiang Lingxi didn't go back to heal, but rather attended some sort of personality improvement class. She came back as if she's a different person!"

If Jiang Lingxi heard this, she would just say: It's true that besides close friends who recognize you, your enemies know you best.

"Don't rush, take it slow and tell me, how did Jiang Lingxi behave after she came back?"

Lin Xuefei elaborated, suddenly remembering Jiang Kaiyuan's instinctive question yesterday, "Brother Huang, do you think Jiang Lingxi might actually have a twin sister? Otherwise, no matter how much she improves herself, she couldn't improve so much in such a short time!"

His reply was firm and unequivocal: "Impossible, Jiang Lingxi's family situation is no secret in the industry. She joined the entertainment circle to help her family pay off debts. All she has is a bankrupt father, a stay-at-home mom, and a younger brother still in the Juvenile Detention Center. There's absolutely no twin sister."

"Alright, I was just saying."

"Xuefei, maybe even you haven't noticed it yourself, but I can tell that Jiang Lingxi's return has influenced you."

Lin Xuefei held her breath for a moment.

Then she heard her manager, Brother Huang, continue, "It's best if you don't overthink anything now, nor should you be concerned about how much Jiang Lingxi has changed or how outstanding she is now. Just follow the path you set for yourself before. Don't change your original plan because of her. Today's audience has sharp eyes, and they'll notice even a small mistake. As for Jiang Lingxi, whether she's pretending or really met some extraordinary person, if she wants to keep it up, she has to pretend for a long time. There will be a day when she can't hold it together."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xuefei only felt a chill in her palms as she recalled her performance in front of the cameras that day, realizing it was not even half of her usual standard.

Though she didn't want to admit it was because of having been influenced by the vastly changed Jiang Lingxi, she had no other explanation.

"Okay, Brother Huang, I understand."

"Don't overthink, go to bed early."

"Alright."

It's expected to wake up feeling sore in the back and legs after a night's sleep.

Still, Jiang Lingxi didn't hesitate. After resting for a while, just like yesterday, she got up early to go out for a run.

This time, the staff at the small villa saw her again, and although still a bit surprised that she could get up, they weren't as shocked as the day before.

After running a lap on the rural path, the villa was still quiet when she returned.

After washing up and changing clothes in her room and lying down for a rest, only then did she hear movement in the corridor outside.

Even with makeup on, She Man's face showed some signs of fatigue as she walked toward the living room, gently hammering her lower back with her hand. Glancing at Xu Yin, who also couldn't hide her tiredness, she smiled self-deprecatingly, "We're really getting old, just a small hill climb yesterday, and I almost couldn't get up today."

"I'm about the same, my calves are so sore I don't want to move."

The door to the bedroom nearby opened, and both of them stopped talking to look over.

She Man's expression was a bit complicated as she faced the collagen-filled face, "Little Xixi is up too!"

Xu Yin couldn't help but take another look at the straight back in front of her, "Little Xixi looks quite energetic."

"Teacher She, Teacher Xu, good morning, I'm all right."

"Let's go see what task the director has lined up for us today."

"Hopefully, it's not like yesterday, I can't hold on much longer."

At the restaurant, the previously empty dining table was now set with breakfast, along with the same task card as yesterday.

She Man picked it up and read aloud, "Today's task: You are allowed to bring your phones and find and photograph what you think is the most beautiful scenery in the village, with a deadline before sunset. Afterwards, the show's staff will vote for the one with the most votes, and the winner can earn the title of local public welfare ambassador."

After reading, she exchanged a look with Xu Yin.

The content of the task allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief. Although they had to walk around and take photos, they could rest if they got tired. Plus, the village was picturesque, and the scenery should look good no matter how it was shot.

The main attraction was the title of local public welfare ambassador. Although there wasn't much pay for filming such public welfare videos, it had a positive influence, which was beneficial for artists.

To get this title, they'd need to take some good photos for the rest of the day.

"Xuefei didn't wake up this time either."

"Save some food for the two of them. If they can sleep, let them... let's eat first."

After breakfast, Jiang Lingxi sat on the couch in the living room and began to familiarize herself with the camera functions on her phone.

Front camera, rear camera, portraits, landscapes, delayed wide-angle shots, she tried them all thoroughly.

The camera nearby had learned and moved over early to faithfully record all this.

Zhao Hengsheng watched Jiang Lingxi enthusiastically taking photos with her phone while munching on a bun, and couldn't help but mumble, "How come it looks like she's never taken a selfie before."

He remembered that this girl used to love taking selfies up close, and the camera had recorded many times, but her skills were really bad, practically wasting that face.

When Lin Xuefei and Jiang Kaiyuan almost simultaneously exited their bedrooms, they saw the three others, who had finished breakfast, waiting for them in the living room. Lin Xuefei forced herself not to look in Jiang Lingxi's direction, where occasional "click-click" sounds came from, and immediately said apologetically, "I overslept."

She Man waved it off with a smile, "It's understandable, everyone was exhausted yesterday. Go eat your breakfast before it gets cold."

Lin Xuefei bit her lip with annoyance as she sat down at the dining table. She should have set an alarm before going to bed last night; Jiang Lingxi actually got up earlier than her!

Wait, don't be influenced by Jiang Lingxi!

Finishing breakfast a bit hastily, after learning about the task for the day, her eyes immediately brightened.

She considered herself quite skilled at photography, especially since the winner could become the local public welfare ambassador; she was determined to get it!

As for Jiang Lingxi, she had secretly checked out her selfies using a side account before. With such angles, if not for her face, it would have been a complete disaster.

No wonder she kept "click-clicking" just now, seems like she's polishing her photography skills at the last minute.

No matter what, today's round, she must win!

Once the shoot was set up and ready, everyone took their phones and prepared to set off.

Jiang Lingxi then turned off the camera on her phone and glanced at Lin Xuefei, who looked very confident.

Her determined appearance was not too obvious, indicating she was very confident in her photography skills.

Though Jiang Lingxi had just learned how to take photos, she wasn't worried.

She had never met anyone who could make her admit defeat in her life so far.

Once they stepped out of the villa, the five immediately split off in different directions.

Jiang Lingxi, accompanied by the filming crew, walked leisurely ahead.

She stopped from time to time to take photos with her phone, sometimes just to capture the clouds in the sky or the fallen flowers on the ground.

The filming personnel following her had a look of wanting to say something but held back.

Did she intend to mess around and remember that she's in a competition?
