Chapter 348 - Retaliation! (2)
People tend to have preconceived notions. Having watched “Eating Well for All Three Meals” on TV, they naturally thought that it was the “genuine” program, while “Two Under One Roof” was just a “knockoff.”
They started criticizing without even bothering to find out which one of the two variety shows was aired first and which idea came about first.

In particular, Zhuo Yi’s fans had been pestering Shi Sui.
When Shi Sui first debuted, he had collaborated with Zhuo Yi in a certain film. During its course, it was exposed that a mere newcomer in the industry had spoken rudely to his senior and seemed to be acting like a big shot by putting on airs.
Later, Zhuo Yi won a double-gold ‘Best Actor’ award, and he kept using that to mock Shi Yingdi/Shi Sui.
However, Shi Sui then won a triple-gold ‘Best Actor’ award and became the youngest person in the entertainment industry to hold such an impressive title. Hence, Zhuo Yi’s fans didn’t dare to criticize him anymore.
Today, the old feud was brought to light again.
...
At nine o’clock.
The livestream ended.
Li Jianyu gathered the staff in the courtyard and introduced Ruan Qing to them.
“This is Sister Ruan, my boss.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
‘Huh?’
‘Director Li’s boss?’
Li Jianyu said with dismay, “Anyway, Sister Ruan is now in charge of the planning and PR of our program. You just need to remember that she is the boss of our program team!”
He felt that this topic would go viral on the corporate slave discussion forum too.

Everyone was dumbfounded, but they nevertheless still greeted Ruan Qing in a friendly and subservient manner.
“Hello, Sister Ruan!”
“Sister Ruan, when can we have a pay raise?”
“Sister Ruan, I want to report that Director Li and Old Zhang secretly ate chicken!”
“...”
Most of the staff of the program team were young people. Although life was a little tough for them, they were all very motivated and driven. Hence, the vibes were pleasant.
Ruan Qing could definitely deal with such a situation with ease.
However...
Having gotten used to the internal strifes, backstabbing, and devious schemes that go on in Muyao TV, she was somewhat at a loss when facing these simple and pure young people who were full of pure enthusiasm.
“Do you want some supper?” Standing at the entrance of the villa, Xiang Yi popped her head in and continued, “I cooked some lean pork porridge with century egg.”
The crowd was tempted, and they looked at Ruan Qing intently.
Ruan Qing didn’t put on airs at all. She said with a smile, “Go ahead.”
The crowd cheered in unison and swarmed to the kitchen.
Soon, Xiang Yi came out with a tray of porridge and other side dishes together with Shi Sui.
Shi Sui had worked with Ruan Qing before. Thus, he took the initiative to greet her. “Sister Ruan.”
Ruan Qing nodded in response and shifted her gaze onto Xiang Yi.
Xiang Yi had a reserved and composed temperament. When she smiled, her dimples showed. “Hello, Sister Ruan.”
“Hello, Miss Xiang.”
Xiang Yi asked, “Do you want to try the supper I made?”
Ruan Qing said, “I’m in for a treat.”
They sat down in the gazebo.
Ruan Qing tasted the congee and suddenly stopped in her movements.
She seemed to have understood something.
Xiang Yi’s cooking was indeed delicious, but apart from that...
It provided an irresistible warmth.
Perhaps, joining them was the best decision Ruan Qing had made.
...
