Chapter 384: "What boyfriend?" (2) |
Regardless, if the opportunity arose, it was best for the original Liang AnQi to return. At this rate, her reputation would be ruined by this current Liang AnQi. As the daughter born out of wedlock, she had suffered enough. Being put in a worse light by this intruder would be awful.
Fang JunRong didn’t know much about this area so she reached out to Sun Mei.
Sun Mei had “tell me more” written all over her face. “Why are you asking for an exorcist all of a sudden? Have you run into some mysterious events?”
Most people in their circle were superstitious to a certain degree. Everyone knew a few grandmasters and would have them help with arranging fengshui or what not occasionally. Fang JunRong, not knowing any of them, was a rarity.
Fang JunRong didn’t feel right to share about Liang AnQi so she randomly made something up. “Oh, just a relative’s child. She had a change of personality lately and it was very odd. So we thought we would have someone check it out.”
“Oh, I see.” Sun Mei understood why Fang JunRong didn’t wish to share too much. This was, after all, not something to be proud of and bad for the kid’s reputation. She was still quite happy that Fang JunRong thought about her when she needed help. She provided a few grandmasters’ contact information to Fang JunRong.
Fang JunRong wrote them down. Matters at her company were slow lately so she had time to go visit these so-called grandmasters.
Truth was, she also wanted to see if these grandmasters could tell what had happened to her as well.
Unfortunately, after meeting each and every single one of these grandmasters recommended by Sun Mei, she noticed that they were all con artists. All of them sounded very metaphysical and acted like they were enlightened but, when one really thought about what they had said, they were all but empty theories.
She decided to take a break from this after meeting the last grandmaster with the surname Li.

On the other hand, Liang AnQi was still working hard on saving money. The entire time that she had transmigrated, she had never seen Jiang DeXian again with the exception of the news conference that day.
One failure after another made her more and more irritated. She had very limited money on hand, which was why she was only able to purchase 2% of shares that day.
That was not even enough for her to attend the shareholder meeting. She needed to up it to at least 5%.
When she was overseas, her mother Kong Shuang doted on her overseas so she was never short on the materialistic side of things. When she returned to China, her aunt doted on her and would supplement her from time to time. She had picked up the habit of spending money casually.
Now that her aunty Liang Feng had taken back her special treatment, it was difficult for Liang AnQi to go back to rags from riches.
The living expenses that she received from her mother each month was not enough to support her luxurious lifestyle at all – she had already created a White, Rich, and Pretty image in front of her other schoolmates. Now she barely had enough money to spend, let alone saving any.
Liang AnQi became more anxious. She wanted to earn a lot of money but had no idea how. Any amount that she could make from holding down a job wouldn’t even be enough to buy herself a purse and she wouldn’t even give those a second thought.
She finally locked onto internet streaming. She saw many female streamers on the internet making not only donations from subscribers but could also work with a lot of name brands and make a lot of money advertising for them. All they relied on were their looks, right? She did, after all, have a 100% natural face. For sure she would be more popular than the ones that were results of plastic surgeries.
The more she thought about it the more she felt that this would be a good fit for her. Perhaps she could even enter into the entertainment circle once she was famed. That was how it went for many female protagonists, right?
Feeling ambitious, Liang AnQi registered for an account and started her life as an internet streamer.
