Chapter 84 – 108KG Qin Xue (6)
It felt like Qin Xue had been blessed. She asked, “Then, what’s in the second treasure chest?”
“Heh,” The system had somehow learnt a snarky tone from who knows where. After that, it said, “If you really use this treasure chest, then that will be the day when you completely fall. I don’t hope that day arrives. Now, perform well and use your smart mind. Do not underestimate the enemy.”
After taking the phone out of the chest, the chest disappeared, and the elevator resumed its duties.
She suffered a low point in her life today but she found an olive branch. The heavens still favored her and gave her chance after chance to turn her life around again.
With this phone, she wouldn’t have to worry about not getting the female lead’s negative energy to replenish her stores after the energy runs out anymore. With this phone, she now has the courage to take on this desperate gamble to restore her face with the system.

As Lin Yueqi had no scenes to film tonight, she was accompanying Tuantuan at home and helping her pick out a new backpack and stationery from Taobao. As Papa, Lu Ting naturally took on the job of sharpening his daughter’s pencils.
Lu Ting’s sharpening skills were clearly not up to the task, so Lin Yueqi took the knife and pencil from him with a look of disdain and showed him how to sharpen a pencil. “This is how you sharpen a pencil. Look, isn’t it a pity for you to sharpen Tuantuan’s new pencils like this?”
Finding the perfect opportunity, Tuantuan handed a supermarket ad to Lu Ting and pointed to an automatic pencil sharpener in the shape of a Transformer and said, “Papa, look, don’t you think this sharpener looks cool? Why don’t we get it and save Papa’s big lovely hands?”
Lu Ting laughed. “You’re quite the talker. Alright, Papa will buy it for you.”
Tuantuan pointed to a marker pen in the shape of a magical girl wand and said, “And this one too! I think it’s as pretty as Mama, let’s buy it to show off Mama’s beauty, okay?”
“…” Lin Yueqi snarked at Lu Ting as she sharpened the pencil, “See? That’s the price you pay for not buying an automatic sharpener.”
Lu Ting rubbed the back of Tuantuan’s head and looked apologetically at Lin Yueqi. “I’m sorry, I don’t have the experience of being a father. I’ll definitely do well next time.”
While the two spoke, Xiao Ke’s call came. She quickly howled through the receiver, “Turn on Jinjiang Live right now!”
“What’s wrong? Did Tuantuan’s school shut down?”
Right now, the only thing important for Lin Yueqi and Lu Ting was to satisfy Tuantuan’s dreams of going to school.
Xiao Ke, “No! There’s a podcast with over a million fans on Jinjiang and they usually talk about entertainment gossip. It’s also super accurate. After he mentioned what happened to one actor, the rumors came out true after some time. The netizens are now convinced he’s real! And his style has always been to expose real gossip. But just now, he said that you used your daughter to threaten Lu Ting so he would get you the position of leading actress.”
She was on speaker mode so that she could continue sharpening the pencils. This news was a delight to her, so she didn’t think anything was wrong with it.
Xiao Ke was so pissed that she could laugh at how carefree she was. She said, “The problem is, it’s not just about you! He actually said that not only are you using your daughter to Lu Ting, you even sent your daughter to some pedophile CEO!”
Lu Ting, “…”
With a crack, the pencil in Lin Yueqi’s hand broke in half.
You could easily tell whose doing this was without even thinking.
So it’s that idiot system and Qin Xue?
Fortunately, Tuantuan had gone into the kitchen to wash fruits while she picked up the call and didn’t hear.
Lin Yueqi thought that no matter how overboard Qin Xue was, she would never slander children.
But she was too simple-minded.
Lu Ting was also angry at the news and patted her shoulder to comfort her. “I’ll investigate this matter. The person who created this rumor will pay the price.”
Lin Yueqi clenched her fists and frowned with a rare heavy expression on her face. “Do you still need to investigate? It’s clearly Qin Xue. Who else would do such an unethical thing but her?”
She was righteously indignant as she rolled up her sleeves.
Tuantuan had finished washing her apple and came out from the kitchen. Holding the red apple in her small fleshy hands, she passed it to Lin Yueqi’s mouth. “Mama, you eat first.”
Lin Yueqi looked at her innocent daughter and grew more and more exasperated.
What, is she thinking of her as an easy target just because she didn’t show her might? Come on then, who’s afraid of you?
