After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows-Chapter 86: Peeking Backlash
Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Peeking Backlash
The sudden change directly frightened Jiang Xiyu, who was anxiously waiting on the side.
In her impression from childhood to adulthood, her aunt had always been mysterious and intimidating, especially those eyes, which could make her scalp tingle just from a casual glance.
But at this moment, those originally intimidating eyes of her aunt were filled with red veins from blood, and dark red, almost black blood slowly trickled from the corner of her mouth. The woman, who was glowing with health just moments ago, now looked like she had aged over ten years.
Even the waterfall-like black hair that Jiang Xiyu had always envied had quietly sprouted quite a bit of white hair.
These changes happened in an instant, which was what terrified her the most.
Is this something that would happen to a normal person?
Jiang Xiyu felt her mind go blank, wanting to speak, she opened her mouth but couldn’t produce any sound.
It was Xiaotao, who squatted beside her, constantly helping hold the phone, who, despite trembling with fear in her arms and legs, managed to stay calm, "Sister Xiaoyu, should we call an ambulance?"
Jiang Xiyu resisted the urge to turn and rush out of the villa to escape, although her aunt’s current condition seemed quite bad, she was still afraid of her.
She wanted to leave her behind but dared not do so!
Just as she was about to nod, a cough came from in front of her, "No need!"
Mei Shuiqing wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, struggled to sit up, and said hoarsely, "Go to the kitchen, in the refrigerator, there’s a bottle with a black label, bring it to me."
Jiang Xiyu saw her pointing at her and had to get up from her kneeling position, following the instructions to find the drink in a transparent plastic bottle in the refrigerator.
However, upon seeing the bright red, slightly viscous liquid inside the bottle, she resisted the urge to secretly open and smell it, and handed it back to her aunt.
When the other person twisted open the cap with trembling fingers, she couldn’t help but ask, "Aunt, what kind of drink is that?"
"For replenishing energy."
"The color is so red!"
Mei Shuiqing took a sip, felt the splitting pain in her head lessen slightly, and with a smile that seemed both real and fake, glanced at her little niece, "The ingredients include tomato juice, that’s why it’s red."
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Xiyu nodded as if she suddenly understood, but what she was really thinking, only she knew.
The aunt and niece tacitly skipped over this topic.
Subsequently, Jiang Xiyu watched as her aunt’s complexion visibly improved after drinking the entire bottle of the beverage.
Her lips were stained with the drink, a crimson red like blood, captivatingly vivid.
Jiang Xiyu subtly shifted her gaze, "Aunt, what happened to you earlier?"
Mei Shuiqing licked the remnants of the drink from her lips, glancing at the strands of white hair resting on her shoulder, an ominous gleam in her eyes.
Usually cherishing her long hair dearly, she didn’t expect...
This time, she had indeed suffered greatly!
"That Jiang Lingxi must be wearing something that blocked my observation. I was caught off guard and was backfired by that thing." Mei Shuiqing said, her gaze falling onto her little niece’s face, "When you two filmed the show together, did you notice her wearing anything unusual?"
Jiang Xiyu immediately furrowed her brows in deep thought and shook her head after a while.
"Before filming, we changed all our clothes once. I didn’t see her wearing any accessories, and later in the jungle, everyone was wrapped heavily, I really couldn’t see anything."
Mei Shuiqing’s eyes showed a hint of disdain, her little niece was truly useless!
Her voice turned colder, "I need to know what exactly she is wearing, only by removing that item can I help you. You said things haven’t been going smoothly for you lately, it’s probably because of that thing."
Hearing this issue was also related to her, Jiang Xiyu became instantly nervous.
"Aunt, can you tell me specifically what kind of thing it might be?"
"An Ancient Jade with spiritual energy, blessed Buddha Beads or a Buddha pendant by a high monk, or perhaps..." Mei Shuiqing paused, "In any case, if you feel uneasy about anything Jiang Lingxi is wearing, that’s probably it."
Jiang Xiyu opened her mouth, wanting to say that Jiang Lingxi as a whole made her uncomfortable, but didn’t dare to say it out loud, so in the end, she just nodded obediently, "I understand, Aunt."
"Alright then, go on, don’t bother me until you find that item, I need to meditate."
After driving the two out of her villa, Mei Shuiqing stumbled against the wall into her basement, spitting out a mouthful of darkening blood once more.
Through gritted teeth, she uttered a name: "Jiang Lingxi!"
"Pfft!"

Although the gaze that made her feel sticky and nauseated disappeared in an instant, Jiang Lingxi didn’t let her guard down.
An Emperor loathes being spied upon by others.
In her past life, those who dared to spy on her were killed without question!
Though that method is not permissible in this life, it doesn’t mean there is no other solution.
The premise is to find out who is lurking in the dark, spying on her.
The guests and accompanying cameramen of the show can be ruled out, so the only ones remaining who can see her are those watching her in the live streaming room.
In her past life, she had witnessed some reclusive experts could figure out many things just from someone’s recent portrait or clothing.
There’s no reason for such people to have vanished after a millennium.
In her previous life, she had always minded her own business with those people, anyway, no one dared to calculate anything about her unless they had a death wish.
However, she didn’t expect in this life, or should it be said, her original self, would very likely have been targeted by such people.
With malicious intent no less.
It’s just that now, the soul in this body is hers, although that gaze made her feel disgusting and uncomfortable, the other party likely didn’t gain anything good from it either.
They are probably secretly nursing the backlash wounds now.
And having failed one observation, they probably wouldn’t suspect that this Jiang Lingxi is no longer the same as before. As long as they have ulterior motives, they won’t resist making another move.
So it seems, she just needs to wait patiently for a little longer.
With that thought, Jiang Lingxi felt reassured, put the matter aside, and reached out for the little creature trying its best to snuggle into her arms.
Instead of wasting brainpower trying to figure out the suspect, she would rather indulge the little one while she had the chance before it left her side.
After being driven out of the villa, in order to quickly find if anything on Jiang Lingxi made her feel uncomfortable, Jiang Xiyu had no choice but to hold her nose and open the Wilderness Survival live stream room.
Seeing the person in the live stream enjoying petting a panda cub, she was so frustrated she almost coughed up blood herself.
What the hell is that thing Aunt talked about?!
