What Should I Do if My Best Friend Is a Green Tea? [Transmigrated Into a Book]

Director Yu felt all the hairs on his body stand on end.

When Lin Ranran introduced herself, he already had a premonition that something was going to go wrong. Now, looking at his ruined and expensive camera lens, he realized it was really a huge problem! The young lady was angry!

"Miss... I didn't know Miss Lin's relationship with Yan Xi!" Director Yu wailed.

Before Lin Ranran participated in the program, she told Director Yu that she was the real daughter of a wealthy family who had been recognized and brought back to the family five years ago. Director Yu thought this persona was so appealing. The return of the real daughter and her wealthy fiancé would surely attract a lot of attention.

How could he have known that the fake daughter was Yan Xi!

Yan Xi had also kept this news so well - hidden. Even when she was on the variety show, no one had dug out this matter. Her confidentiality work was really top - notch!

Director Yu looked at Lin Ranran, complaining in his words, "Miss Lin, you're also at fault. How could you suddenly do such a thing? It's inappropriate!"

Lin Ranran raised her eyebrows. "I was just introducing myself. Which sentence did I say wrong?" She looked at Yan Xi, not minding to stir up trouble. "Aren't you the fake daughter of the Lin family? Didn't you usurp my identity for more than a decade?" Yan Xi looked calm, and no emotion could be seen in her eyes.

If it were just her and Lin Ranran, she would have retorted long ago. Lin Ranran loved to pick fights, but she was no match for Yan Xi in an argument.

But there were so many people here today...

Taking advantage of the fact that no one around was paying attention, Yan Xi quickly rubbed her eyes twice, making them red.

She looked at everyone with teary eyes. "Director Yu, Qingyu, don't blame Ranran. Ranran just has a bit of a temper because of her past living environment. It's all my fault. If my presence makes everyone unhappy, I can leave." Zhou Qingyu was furious. Clearly, the one being bullied was Yan Xi. Why should it be her who had to leave?

Just as she was about to speak, Su Lingling stepped in first. "Lin Ranran, have some shame, okay? Do you think no one else knows about the affairs of your Lin family?" Back then, the matter of the real and fake daughters in the Lin family had caused quite a stir in Bowen Middle School. As a gossip lover, Su Lingling had followed the whole story.

Su Lingling said, "Not to mention that when Yan Xi was swapped with you, she was just a baby. What did she know? Moreover, it was your family's nanny who swapped the children. She hated the Lin family and deliberately took revenge. This was the sin of your parents. What did it have to do with Yan Xi? If anyone was unlucky, it was you yourself!"

Su Lingling was a person who clearly distinguished between right and wrong, and her likes and dislikes were simple.

She disliked Zhou Qingyu, and since Yan Xi was Zhou Qingyu's best friend, she didn't like Yan Xi either. But in this matter of the real and fake daughters, it was obvious that Yan Xi was not at fault. She knew the truth in her heart, and now hearing someone distort the facts, of course she had to step forward to clarify. Zhou Qingyu was stunned. She and Su Lingling had been rivals for not just one or two days; they had had a feud for seven or eight years. Today, Su Lingling actually stood on her side. She wasn't used to it. Su Lingling glanced at Zhou Qingyu. "What are you doing? Don't look at me with that look. It's disgusting! My dislike for you and my dislike for Lin Ranran are two different things and don't conflict with each other!" Zhou Qingyu smiled. "You're right."

Lin Ranran gritted her teeth. She never expected that even Su Lingling would speak up for Yan Xi. Yan Xi was really good at pretending to be pitiful. She was clearly not like this in front of her. Zhou Qingyu looked at Lin Ranran. "So much time has passed, and Yan Xi has nothing to do with the Lin family anymore. If you keep bringing this up, I'll have to replace you." Lin Ranran was indignant. "Our family has also invested money and sponsored millions of dollars in advertising fees. You can't do this!"

"Do you think you're the boss just because you've invested a few million?" Zhou Qingyu scoffed. "Who here can't come up with a few million?"

She ignored Lu Beiyu, who only had three or five thousand in his pocket, and pointed at Yaozu, who was wagging his tail frantically beside him. "This dog's car is a Maybach, and it has a private plane when going abroad. A dog is more precious than you. What's a few million?" Lin Ranran finally couldn't hold it in anymore.

It was one thing to say she was inferior to Yan Xi, but now they were even saying she was inferior to a dog? The live - broadcast had been in chaos for so long. Director Yu felt that if the commotion continued, the variety show wouldn't be able to be filmed. He quickly tried to smooth things over. "Miss, look, the variety show has already started. It's not good to find new guests now. How about..."

Zhou Qingyu didn't indulge others. "What's not good about it? There are so many people vying for S - class variety show resources. Are we still worried about not finding someone? As for the advertising, for a few million in advertising sponsorship, I'll just help you get another one. Zhou Corporation has plenty!"

Director Yu awkwardly scratched the tip of his nose. He should have known earlier that Zhou Qingyu was not so easy to persuade. She wasn't Yan Xi!

He then looked at Lin Ranran. "Miss Lin, well, since the young lady has said so, how about you stop bringing up the matter of the real and fake daughters? Otherwise, our cooperation will be in vain."

The implication was that since Zhou Qingyu wasn't going to back down, Lin Ranran had to. Lin Ranran dug her nails into her flesh.

She just couldn't understand. Clearly, she was the real daughter of a wealthy family. Why did everyone have to revolve around Yan Xi?

But in the end, Lin Ranran relied on and depended on the Lin family. She couldn't mess up the Lin family's business.

She had to compromise. "I won't bring up the matter of the real and fake daughters again." The program team took a one - hour break, and the live - broadcast of the variety show started again. During the suspension, the live - broadcast malfunction of "Let's Go on a Trip" had made it onto the hot search, but almost no one knew the reason. They only remembered that the last shot was of Lin Ranran's face.

The program team came out to apologize, saying that it was because the network in H Country was poor, which caused the live - broadcast malfunction.

[The network in H Country is really terrible. The most prosperous parts of H Country are all in Korean dramas!] [It seems that it's still better in our country. Let's see what kind of surprises the program team can come up with in Han City this time!]

[Maybe they'll cooperate with H - country artists? Isn't the H - country idol culture quite famous?]

Facing the camera (the spare one) again, Lin Ranran was much more well - behaved. "Hello, everyone. My name is Lin Ranran, and I'm the flying guest for this episode." Netizens were curious: [I remember Lin Ranran called Yan Xi "sister". What's the relationship between them?]

Lin Ranran patiently replied, "Well, because we both went to Bowen Middle School and got to know each other back then. Yan Xi is my senior, so I call her sister." Although this reason was a bit far - fetched, it was reasonable, and the netizens didn't dig deeper. The living room of the villa had a high - ceiling design, connecting the first and second floors. From the corridor on the second floor, one could see the view of the living room on the first floor.

Before Zhou Qingyu and Yan Xi returned to their room, they took another look at Lin Ranran in the living room. Zhou Qingyu said, "I still think she should quit. How did that bald - headed Director Yu pick guests? Why did he have to pick Lin Ranran?" Yan Xi said, "It's okay. It's all over now."

Long before going on the variety show, Yan Xi knew that some things couldn't be hidden forever. So many years had passed, and she had nothing to be afraid of.

"How can it be okay!" Zhou Qingyu said indignantly. She would always remember how people had talked about Yan Xi on the Bowen Middle School forum. Yan Xi said it was over, but Zhou Qingyu didn't think so.

Due to the incident during the self - introduction, the relationship among the guests became very tense. Director Yu also cancelled the plan for the guests to have dinner together and changed it to free - activity time. The flight to Han City was easier than the flight to Li City. Since they had some free time in the evening, everyone was willing to go out and have a stroll.

Su Lingling was changing her clothes. Ye Luoyi's outfit had already been styled by the stylist, and she just needed to put on the clothes as arranged.

Unable to hold back her curiosity, she found a balcony out of the camera's range and contacted Sun Qi. She wanted to know the current situation on the internet.

Currently, all the top - trending topics on Weibo were related to Ye Luoyi, Pei Yubai, and Zhou Qingyu.

There were labels like "the cheating and despicable Pei", "the pitiful Zhou", and "the hard - to - define Ye". It was really hard to define Ye Luoyi.

Ye Luoyi originally had a large fan base. She became popular quickly by promoting CP (couple) content and had popular dramas to her name. Before this, she never thought about purifying her CP fans. She originally thought she and Pei Yubai would be together for a long time.

As a result, after Pei Yubai's confession, a large number of CP fans unfollowed her. She didn't notice it on the private plane just now, but now, comparing the number of her Weibo followers, she had lost hundreds of thousands.

Many of her fan clubs also announced that they were unfollowing her and closing down.

Sun Qi also informed Ye Luoyi of her current situation. It was estimated that she was only at the level of a second - tier artist now.

Ye Luoyi was so angry that her hands were shaking.

She had works at least, and now her popularity was almost the same as Zhou Qingyu's? It was outrageous!

Sun Qi was silent for a moment. He didn't want to hit Ye Luoyi, but the fact was that the public perception was very important, and Zhou Qingyu had a very good public perception recently. Sun Qi said, "How about you apologize to Zhou Qingyu?"

Ye Luoyi was incredulous. "I'm the victim! Pei Yubai also lied to me! Why should I apologize?"

Suddenly, Ye Luoyi thought of something and asked Sun Qi, "You're the brokerage director of Tianhui and have handled so many projects with Zhou Corporation. You can't not know the relationship between Zhou Qingyu and Pei Yubai, right?"

Sun Qi flinched. Of course, he knew.

Pei Yubai didn't tell him directly, but he wasn't a fool. Ye Luoyi felt Sun Qi's silence and sneered, "You're all in the same boat!" Sun Qi was annoyed. At this time, Pei Yubai had no time to care about him and was busy with the crisis - public relations for Tianhui. It was only he who cared about her, and yet she talked to him like that! Sun Qi said unhappily, "I do know, but Ye Luoyi, didn't you have any feeling at all? Even if you didn't guess before, you should have felt it at the winery, right?"

Ye Luoyi said dryly, "I don't know."

Sun Qi laughed. "Stop pretending."

Ye Luoyi grabbed the base of her thumb tightly. She wasn't lying to Sun Qi about this. She was telling the truth.

If she had known earlier that Zhou Qingyu and Pei Yubai were engaged, would she have flirted with Pei Yubai?

She had her bottom line and never got involved with a man who was already committed!

Ye Luoyi admitted that there were many men around her, but she wasn't in a relationship with any of them. Just like one could date several blind - date partners at the same time or send resumes to several companies when looking for a job, it was okay to have some alternatives before making a decision. But Ye Luoyi knew that Zhou Qingyu liked Pei Yubai, and she also knew that many of her resources were obtained by Pei Yubai from Zhou Qingyu.

It was two different things, from Pei Yubai coaxing Zhou Qingyu to get the resources to him giving the resources to Ye Luoyi.

Even if it wasn't her, there would be someone else.

The phone call with Sun Qi ended like this. In the end, Sun Qi still advised Ye Luoyi to apologize to Zhou Qingyu and turn hostility into friendship, but Ye Luoyi was not willing. She also didn't think that Zhou Qingyu would be magnanimous enough to "forgive" her. Su Lingling finished changing her clothes, and the two of them went out to find something to eat.

They were accompanied by Lu Beiyu and Yaozu.

Yaozu didn't eat human food. Auntie Chen had prepared a doggy lunch box for it and packed it in its backpack for it to carry. There were also cleaning supplies, a water bowl, and a small amount of snacks in the backpack.

Just in case, Auntie Chen would also go with them, but under normal circumstances, she wouldn't be in the shot and would just stay with the PD and the others.

Yaozu was very happy, probably knowing that it was going out to play. It had shed a layer of its fur. In the hot summer, as soon as they left the air - conditioned room, the heat hit them. Yaozu stuck out its tongue from time to time to cool down, but still kept a smile on its face.

The three people and the dog came to a small restaurant in Han City. This was Ye Luoyi's long - planned destination.

Since they couldn't take advantage of Lu Beiyu, they had to follow their original plan. Fortunately, the hygiene of this restaurant was okay, and the food was delicious. Lu Beiyu took off Yaozu's small backpack and let it eat the doggy lunch box, then he joined Ye Luoyi and the others to enjoy the Korean barbecue in Han City. During the meal, they talked about some entertainment - circle topics.

Halfway through the meal, Lu Beiyu finally got to the point.

"Sister Lingling, if Yan Xi and Lin Ranran were switched at birth, and Lin Ranran returned to the Lin family, then did Yan Xi return to the Yan family?"

- Just now during the argument, he saw Su Lingling standing up for Yan Xi, while Ye Luoyi didn't say anything. He automatically assumed that Su Lingling was closer to Yan Xi.

The three of them had just been chatting about gossip, and now Su Lingling just thought Lu Beiyu was gossiping.

"Otherwise? Later, Yan Xi moved out of the Lin family. She was only fifteen years old at that time. If she didn't go back to the Yan family, would she wander on the street?" "I..."

Lu Beiyu looked thoughtful, and his voice was a bit disappointed.

Actually, Su Lingling couldn't remember clearly either. In the big drama of the switched - at - birth true and false daughters, everyone's attention was on the wealthy family. Who would care about ordinary families? Since Lin Ranran had returned to the Lin family, shouldn't Yan Xi return to the Yan family and everything fall into place? Lu Beiyu forced a smile. After learning that Yan Xi was the switched - at - birth child, Lu Beiyu's eyes had clearly lit up, but he didn't dare to ask Yan Xi for fear of disturbing her. He also knew that Lin Ranran probably wouldn't pay attention to him, so he came to ask Su Lingling. But this answer made the joy in his eyes fade away little by little. Ye Luoyi was sitting beside them, eating the barbecue in silence.

She clearly remembered that Pei Yubai had told her that Yan Xi had borrowed ten million from the Zhou family to completely break away from the Lin family.

If Yan Xi had returned to her own family, her biological parents had raised Lin Ranran, and the Lin family had raised Yan Xi. Moreover, it was because of the Lin family that the children were switched. There was actually no need to pay back this money, right?

The lost daughter of the Lu family was twenty years old this year, and so was Yan Xi. "Yiyi, what are you thinking about so intently?"

Su Lingling noticed that Ye Luoyi was in a daze, and the barbecue on the grill in front of her was burnt. So she called her twice.

Ye Luoyi woke up as if from a dream. When her eyes swept over Lu Beiyu, there was a flash of uneasiness in her eyes.

She quickly switched back to a gentle smile. "It's nothing. Hurry up and eat the meat. It's all cooked!"

Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu went to the restaurant recommended by Piao Baoyuan.

It had to be said that the travel consultants of the Express Bank were very reliable. Louis was like that, and so was Piao Baoyuan.

Piao Baoyuan was thirty years old, capable and energetic, and her Chinese was very fluent. From time to time, new viewers thought she was Chinese.

Yan Xi and Zhou Qingyu had a very satisfying meal.

After that, the two of them took a stroll on the streets of Han City. Occasionally, they met some Korean fans, and Zhou Qingyu would stop to take photos and sign autographs.

The whole night went smoothly, except... they met Lin Ranran and Chu Mo. Zhou Qingyu even wanted to complain about the narrow path of enemies.

Piao Baoyuan self - deprecatingly added, "Han City is small anyway."

The two groups of people just met without any exchange. Zhou Qingyu pulled Yan Xi to a popular online ice - cream shop ahead, while Lin Ranran hooked her arm around Chu Mo and walked in the other direction. Only Chu Mo kept his eyes on Yan Xi.

Compared with Zhou Qingyu, whose beauty was aggressive, Chu Mo just preferred Yan Xi's pure and seductive innocent - girl type.

Yan Xi was wearing a cool halter dress today. The slender shoulder straps outlined her delicate shoulder lines, and the skirt fluttered gently in the breeze. Chu Mo's eyes were firmly fixed on her, and he subconsciously stuck out his tongue and licked his lips.

Lin Ranran's face changed instantly.

Five years had passed, and Yan Xi had long faded out of her life. Lin Ranran also knew very well that Yan Xi was not the one who made her grow up alone and lonely.

Even though Yan Xi had left the Lin family, Mrs. Lin always liked to compare Lin Ranran with Yan Xi. She would scold Lin Ranran for her poor grades, saying she couldn't compare with Yan Xi; mock her for her bad ballroom dancing skills, while Yan Xi had learned it in just three days. Even Chu Mo, who was supposed to protect her, either spread scandals with other women or had photos of Yan Xi on his phone.

Lin Ranran couldn't blame Mrs. Lin, nor did she dare to blame Chu Mo. She could only secretly hope that Yan Xi's life would be a complete mess.

It seemed that if Yan Xi's life was bad, it would make her own life look better. But Yan Xi was living a good life, and there were no negative comments about her online. The only time Lin Ranran remembered Yan Xi being severely scolded was when it was exposed that she was not a real daughter of the Lin family. The forum of Bowen Middle School was full of mockery of her. Flattering the powerful and trampling on the weak was a characteristic of the wealthy families.

The entertainment circle was probably the same.

Lin Ranran's phone lit up. It was a message from her former class group, and someone had @ her. After Lin Ranran returned to the Lin family, she transferred to Bowen Middle School. When Yan Xi was in her senior year of high school, Lin Ranran was only in her third - year of junior high. She had always been trying to get rid of the shadow brought by Yan Xi. Fortunately, after Yan Xi graduated, Lin Ranran gradually integrated into the circle of Bowen Middle School. [@Ranran, I saw you on the variety show!]

[Ranran looks quite good on the show!]

[I took a look. That Yan Xi looks so familiar. She looks like your fake - daughter older sister!]

[It's her! In the last episode of the variety show, she admitted that her original name was Lin Xi.] [That shameless woman is still jumping around! Does she want to be a star?] [Maybe she wants to find a rich man to marry through this opportunity!]

[How disgusting! A sparrow wants to fly onto a branch and become a phoenix!]

[Expose her. Such a person still wants to return to the wealthy family. Dream on!] Lin Ranran felt a little proud.

So what if Zhou Qingyu didn't let her reveal their relationship? As long as she appeared on this variety show, someone would always remember the past between her and Yan Xi. There were so many people in Bowen Middle School, and quite a few of them knew about this matter. Even those who had no opinion on Yan Xi would choose to expose the big celebrity gossip. It was only a matter of time before the truth about the real and fake daughters was exposed.

On the way home, Lin Ranran was extremely excited. Many people in the group were talking about this matter. Lin Ranran firmly believed that someone would definitely spread this matter! Just wait a little longer, just a little longer!

When she returned to the villa, Lin Ranran met Yan Xi at the elevator. She deliberately held her head high and almost looked at Yan Xi through her nostrils.

I'll just let you be happy for one more night. Humph!

Yan Xi:?

She complained to Zhou Qingyu, "This guy must have taken the wrong medicine. She looks crazy."

Zhou Qingyu was drinking milk: "Has she ever been normal?"

Lin Ranran...

Lin Ranran ignored the two of them and went back to continue waiting for the exposure.

She waited for a long time, so long that she didn't even know how many hours had passed, and there was no sign of any movement on the Internet.

What's wrong? Didn't they say they were going to expose it?

Lin Ranran drank several cups of coffee to keep herself awake. She didn't know until what time it was. After the live - broadcast ended and everyone had gone to sleep, there was still no movement on the Internet.

Didn't they say they were going to expose it?!

Lin Ranran couldn't wait any longer, so she simply registered an anonymous account.

If you don't post it, I will. Take a screenshot and add a tag. Such a big gossip will definitely be very popular!

As she was saying this, Lin Ranran quickly posted the chat screenshots from the group. She was extremely excited, looking forward to the day when the data would skyrocket.

She refreshed the page, and her account was blocked.

In the public relations department of Zhou Corporation.

Zhou Yanci looked expressionlessly at the data on the LED screen, which was about the public opinions of Yan Xi and Lin Ranran on the Internet.

Three hours ago, Assistant Sun told Zhou Yanci that the public relations department reported that since Yan Xi's real name was exposed in the last episode of the variety show, there had been posts on the Internet about the relationship between Yan Xi and the Lin family.

Combined with the situation of today's variety - show live - broadcast, it was very likely that Lin Ranran's appearance had triggered the informed netizens from that year to expose the matter.

Assistant Sun didn't take this report seriously. After all, last time it was Zhou Qingyu who exchanged the shares of the Royal Hotel for Zhou Yanci to help Yan Xi deal with the public opinion. This time, the young lady didn't come to them, so there was no need to worry about it.

However, as soon as Zhou Yanci heard about this, he immediately got up.

Assistant Sun hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhou! There is still a project meeting in five minutes!"

Zhou Yanci: "Postpone it until tomorrow. Go to the public relations department first."

Assistant Sun:???

What's going on? Have the relationship between the siblings improved? Now Mr. Zhou is even responsible for after - sales service? In the public relations department, Zhou Yanci immediately asked all platforms to suppress the relevant news. Occasionally, new posts would appear, but the public - relations detection system of Zhou Corporation was very powerful. This system was developed by a science - and - technology innovation company invested by Zhou Yanci. It was originally designed to detect any negative news about the group in a timely manner so that it could be dealt with quickly. Now it was used to deal with Yan Xi's matter.

With the public relations department taking action, the posts about the relationship between Yan Xi and the Lin family were completely blocked, and there was no discussion about this matter at all.

Suddenly, Zhou Yanci's phone rang. Yan Xi sent him a WeChat message.

[Cute cat.jpg]

[Mr. Zhou! It's almost ten o'clock. You should go to bed early!]

Zhou Yanci lowered his eyebrows and smiled, with a gentle look in his eyes.

[I can't tonight. I have work to do.]

Yan Xi: [!!!]

[Forward article: "The Unbearable Nights and the Lost Beauty of Health"] [Forward article: "Although the Night is Beautiful, Staying Up Late is a Sin, and Life Sighs in the Dark Night"]

[Forward article: "The Night is Not Over, but the Sorrow is Formed. The Pain of Staying Up Late is Too Much for Life to Bear!"]

Zhou Yanci couldn't help but laugh and cry.

What kind of things does this little girl brush every day?

He asked Assistant Sun about the rescheduled time of the project meeting. After confirming that it was tomorrow afternoon, he replied to Yan Xi: [What I'm doing tonight is very important. Don't worry. I'll ask for leave tomorrow morning and catch up on sleep.]

Yan Xi: [Okay... Sad cat.jpg]

[You must keep your word!]

[The cat is watching you!] Zhou Yanci put down his phone, with a smile in his eyes.

Assistant Sun didn't understand why Zhou Yanci was smiling while looking at his phone. He thought it was a bit creepy.

He handed the information of the IP addresses of the posts tracked down by the public relations department to Zhou Yanci. "Mr. Zhou, currently most netizens are just joining in the fun and haven't paid attention to the posts after the revelations. But there's a strange IP that keeps posting repeatedly, and the content of the posts is quite offensive." "We checked, and this IP is in Han City. It belongs to Lin Ranran's account." Zhou Yanci took the information and saw the post that Lin Ranran originally intended to post online. Besides the chat screenshots, there were also many guiding remarks, seemingly trying to lead netizens to abuse Yan Xi.

Lin Ranran, the Lin family.

Zhou Yanci looked up at the time. It was exactly ten o'clock, and the U.S. stock market had already opened. "I remember the Lin family's company is already listed, right?" Zhou Yanci said. Assistant Sun was stunned for a moment. "Yes."

Zhou Yanci took off his gold-rimmed glasses, picked up a tissue, and slowly wiped his glasses.

"Last time, how long did it take from when we took action until the Chen family's company went bankrupt?"

Assistant Sun replied, "Three days."

Zhou Yanci put on his glasses. "Then this time, we can make it even faster."
