Zhou Xu: Posted a statement on Shang Group's official Weibo—denying the pool scandal. Threatened lawsuits for spreaders. Attached a video—clear, no intimacy.
Company: Now knows—the pink lunchbox's owner ≠ pool woman. Searched, but no clues—matter dropped.
Some suspected Jiang Zhi (same ring), but Lin Yanran explained—everyone dismissed it. Two unrelated people—impossible.
Tianheng Entertainment: Jiang Zhi tested Xu Jiarou in film/singing projects.
Conclusion: Good looks, but talent—only acting showed potential (not Gifted and Talented,but Diligence can make up for lack of talent.).
Need B-level in a year—impossible.
Lin Yanran: "Let her go Black and red —like me."
Jiang Zhi: Refused. "Pure type—gets more hate. You're a professional, with acting skills—fans defend. Xu Jiarou needs 5-6 years to reverse Black and red."
First signed artist—can't be this image.
Lin Yanran: "Send her to idol survival shows—fastest way to debut."
Jiang Zhi: Worried about her strength. "Later."
Lin Yanran: "Dinner time—let's eat."
Jiang Zhi: Couldn't refuse—texted Shang Chi: "No dinner at home."
He: "Ok—have a business event."
They went to "Great Song Tea Garden"—ancient, elegant.
Lin Yanran: "Friend is a member—can enter."
Private room: TV on—waiter asked, "Turn on?"
Lin Yanran: "Yes—boring otherwise."
TV: Jiang Xinian and Wen Nian—playing a game (biting cookie from both ends).
Wen Nian: "Xinian Ge—we've kissed before. No need to be shy."
Audience: Went wild—ambiguous, Kissed both in and out of the play..
Lin Yanran: "Scumbags—lock them up! Don't hurt others!"
Turned off TV—worried Jiang Zhi.
But Jiang Zhi: Calm, drank water. "Agree."
Lin Yanran: Remembered—Jiang Zhi cleared Jiang Xinian's apartment, posted rental info. Thought she was faking strength, but now—genuinely over it.
Phone rang—Jiang Xinian's call.
