After Switching Bodies, the Mad Overbearing CEO Takes Over the Entertainment Industry-Chapter 66 - Your malicious thoughts have escaped through your eyes

Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Your malicious thoughts have escaped through your eyes

The cliff was rather high; they all found it difficult for a moment.

But there was only one portion of money, and they couldn’t just give it up because it was difficult. Shen Zhiyi pursed her lips and spoke with an apologetic voice, “I know everyone really wants this money, so let’s compete fairly. Whoever gets the money, it’s theirs. What do you think?”

Bai Tingyu smiled, “I have no objections.”

He looked at Quan Jingyou and Gong Yu, “What about you two?”

Gong Yu’s smile was warm, “Brother Yu, I won’t be polite to you just because we’re on a show. I want to win too.”

Quan Jingyou didn’t particularly want to win, but he didn’t want to be eliminated and miss out on the opportunity to become an apprentice; he hadn’t succeeded yet! He couldn’t leave, so he laughingly said, “I won’t make it easy either. We each rely on our own abilities. Ah Nan, what about you?”

...

Ji Weinan glanced at Shen Zhiyi. Shen Zhiyi noticed and gave him a very vibrant smile with her apricot eyes curving beautifully.

He felt his face heat up and anxiously averted his gaze, stammering, “I, I’m fine with anything. If I lose this one, I can find others.”

Quan Jingyou’s mouth twitched, “You’re really hopeless. Why don’t you just drop out and go home?”

Ji Weinan: “…”

It wasn’t to the point of being eliminated yet. He replied sheepishly, “I definitely want to give it my all. After all, I have to take care of my sister; I couldn’t possibly let her sleep outside.”

“Then I really ought to thank you for your care.”

Ji Tian suddenly spoke, drawing the attention of the group.

Shen Zhiyi frowned slightly. She didn’t know why, but she really didn’t like Ji Tian. This person’s presence made her feel uncomfortable and seemed to always deliberately lead the plot astray. However, she didn’t show it on her face. Since she wasn’t on familiar terms with Ji Tian, but to maintain her persona of being enthusiastic and cheerful, she laughed and called out, “Ji Tian, you’re here! We’ve just found a hiding place for the money and have agreed to rely on our own skills. Whoever wins gets it.”

Ji Tian looked up, squinting because of the bright sunlight at the moment, then responded expressionlessly, “Oh, what’s that got to do with me? Continue with your thing.”

Shen Zhiyi felt a bit embarrassed, then quietly bowed her head and said nothing more.

[Damn, what’s with Ji Tian? Acting like a prima donna isn’t about bullying others like that, is it? Shen Zhiyi just asked a question, and her response sounds so unpleasant.]

[From the start of the show, it was clear that Ji Tian didn’t like Shen Zhiyi, but her brother does, emmm, what is this melodramatic plot, won’t Director Yan get hit for arranging this?]

[I think Ji Tian didn’t say anything wrong. She just said it’s none of her business, you guys continue; this is what you call bullying? No one touched her, no one cursed her; glass heart, why go on the show with that attitude? Just roll back to school and study.]

[Yo, the show just started this morning, and Princess Ji already has loyal dogs defending her. Will she split her inheritance with you for your loyalty?]

[Can you stop biting indiscriminately above? What’s with the bitterness? Liking Ji Tian is because she’s forthright and cute, not like some people who just can’t let go of her wealth. She doesn’t owe you anything, it’s really exasperating.]

Ji Weinan couldn’t stand it anymore, “Ji Tian!”

Ji Tian lifted her eyelashes, the first hint of sharpness appearing in her innocent doe eyes. She looked at Ji Weinan with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “Hmm? Why are you yelling? What do you want?”

Ji Weinan then remembered her extraordinary strength and, swallowing his pride, lowered his voice, “Nothing, nothing. I just wanted to ask if you have any ideas? After all, you’re smarter than I am…”

It was a rare sight. The ever-fearless Ji Weinan was actually a little afraid of his sister.

Quan Jingyou silently watched Ji Tian’s already clenched fists. He had to admit, Ji Weinan knew when to back off. If he had been any more stubborn, that fist might have found its way to his face.

Ji Tian snapped back without much enthusiasm, “No, I’m just here to watch the drama unfold.”

Ji Weinan touched his nose, “Oh…then let’s watch together since I don’t have it either.”

Shen Zhiyi: “…”

She had hoped that out of pity for her, Ji Weinan would bully Ji Tian a little, but what a letdown—the commotion turned into much ado about nothing, quickly dissolving into peace.

What a waste.

Is this what he calls liking someone?

If she really agreed to be with him, wouldn’t she be bullied to death by his domineering little sister?

Shen Zhiyi took a deep breath, determined to find a way to make Ji Weinan choose between her and Ji Tian. Even if the outcome was as she expected, she just wanted to hurt Ji Tian, to make her understand that it didn’t matter if she was the younger sister; whatever Shen Zhiyi wanted, could only belong to her.

She smiled at Bai Tingyu, “Let’s start figuring out a way. From this height, let’s see if there’s a way to climb up and get the money.”

Bei Ning glanced at Ji Tian from behind, her palms starting to sweat. The spot they were standing on was a mess of rocks—falling and just getting hurt was bad enough, let alone the possibility of having their faces cut by the sharp stones.

Gong Dongxi had sent her another message. She didn’t want Ji Tian dead, but she did want her disfigured—destroy Ji Tian first, then Shen Zhiyi. She couldn’t stand either of them.

And now, she was monitoring every move from beyond the screen of her phone. Since it was a live broadcast, every sound was in real time.

She was psyching herself up, thinking to push Ji Tian down when everyone was busy collecting money. It wouldn’t kill her, but she would get hurt.

That way, her family wouldn’t go bankrupt, and she wouldn’t be blamed by Gong Dongxi. She might face repercussions from the Ji Family, but Gong Dongxi had promised to protect her.

Now, Bei Ning could only trust her.

Before she could act, a fresh and cool presence arrived behind her.

That scent, one she couldn’t forget even in her dreams, would jolt her awake with fear.

Before she could see his face, Bei Ning’s breathing became rapid, her pupils constricted, and her body was so stiff she dared not move.

The youth stood beside her, and Bei Ning felt as if the Grim Reaper was by her side. If she made one wrong move, his scythe would swing mercilessly toward her.

“You evil thing, your malicious thoughts are showing right through your eyes.”

Bei Ning trembled all over, her voice hoarse: “I, I really don’t dare anymore.”

“Heh,” he chuckled lowly, his voice ice-cold, “Look at me.”

Bei Ning’s eyes turned reddish with fear. She had never been so scared of a person in her life because Qin Jiangsheng truly would take her life.

Turning her head mechanically, she gazed into his tea-colored eyes. If not for her terror of him, she would have screamed and left this damn show long ago. She was already struggling to hold back tears.

Before they could fall, Qin Jiangsheng spoke, “Don’t play dirty in front of me. I can play you to death.”

His gaze shifted towards Shen Zhiyi’s retreating figure, his beautiful eyes narrowing almost imperceptibly with amusement: “I know Gong Dongxi specifically came to harm two people, but Ji Tian—if you dare touch her, I’ll chop off your hands. As for Shen Zhiyi, do as you please. Do you understand?”
