Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius

Chapter 166 - 150: Support Banners: From Eye-Catching to Blinding!


Chapter 166: Chapter 150: Support Banners: From Eye-Catching to Blinding!

At the airport entrance, a group of fans held large banners, shaking them wildly in front of Ji Xizhi.

As they shook, they also shouted.

“Linxin, Linxin, I love you ah ah ah, giving crazy support to Linxin~~~”

Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan, hearing the words shouted by the fans, suddenly realized.

Oh, these aren’t fans here to support Ji Xizhi!

Ji Xizhi turned her head to look behind her and saw an artist with a slim figure, wearing a baseball cap, arriving with her.

This artist was named Qiu Lin, also a guest on this episode of “Escape Room,” but she was a regular guest, so she was quite familiar with the various segments.

The loud support just now was from Qiu Lin’s fans.

Qiu Lin stood slightly behind Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan. Hearing her fans calling her, she flipped up her baseball cap and smiled with a wink, “Caught me again! You have really sharp eyes!”

Qiu Lin effortlessly walked into her group of fans, then looked up and realized that the person who had been standing next to her was Ji Xizhi.

Qiu Lin’s eyes lit up; she was about to greet Ji Xizhi when suddenly a troupe of fans surged over from the opposite direction.

The fans hadn’t arrived yet, but their voices came first.

“Knowledge is power, spreading legal awareness can’t wait!!!”

With this cheer, who wouldn’t guess?

The intellectuals swarmed over, having previously gone to the wrong entrance, giving Qiu Lin’s fans the early advantage.

Now finally having arrived, the intellectuals were ready to take out their support gear.

Before they could raise it, they saw the familiar banner held brightly by Qiu Lin’s fans.

The size, the length, was it made by the same manufacturer?

The intellectuals were momentarily stunned.

Opposite, Qiu Lin’s fans saw Ji Xizhi’s fans’ expressions and shook their banners even more vigorously.

Nowadays, everyone in the industry knew about the large, eye-catching banners of Ji Xizhi’s fans. Ever since the news about Ji Xizhi’s airport welcome went viral, almost every fan group had gotten such a big banner.

Qiu Lin’s fans were no exception. The itinerary for “Escape Room” was well-known, and last time, Ji Xizhi’s fans, with the smallest number, had overwhelmed a multitude of artists in the entertainment circle. This time, they couldn’t let Ji Xizhi’s fans dominate again.

Qiu Lin’s fans smiled smugly as if to say, “Now your support advantage is gone!”

Opposite, the intellectuals didn’t understand Qiu Lin’s fans’ provocative smiles at all.

They returned a polite smile.

The few people in front bowed their heads to discuss for a moment, then directed everyone to orderly and neatly pull out a long banner with flashing neon lights.

The middle of the banner still had the same words, the font hadn’t changed, but the quality had noticeably improved, with the font’s outline embroidered with neon lights and the edges decorated with sequins.

It had evolved from strikingly noticeable to glaringly eye-catching.

The fans of Qiu Lin opposite got an eyeful.

Qiu Lin’s fans: ???

Why the hell is this different from last time!

The intellectuals shook their banners dominantly on one side, while on the other, they took out various flashy little items, like book-shaped banners, scroll-like banners, victory headbands, etc., with different shapes, more varied than even those made by companies specializing in support materials.

Seeing this made Qiu Lin’s fans’ hands itch, wanting to get some supplies from the other side.

“Zhi Zhi Zhi Zhi, we’ve made new support items, the upgraded version. Do you like them?!” the intellectuals shouted out and immediately came forward to seek praise.

Before Ji Xizhi could open her mouth, the fans collectively added another sentence.

“Don’t worry, they were all made after completing study tasks, it didn’t waste any time.”

Ji Xizhi softly said, “I like them, thank you all for your hard work.”

Upon hearing these words, the fans felt it was all worth it.

Xiao Yuan glanced at Qiu Lin’s fans’ banner, then at her own, and secretly gave the intellectuals a thumbs-up.

Fans follow the lead of their idols like this.

Others are still on the path you once walked, while you’ve already raced three miles ahead!

This is the difference!!!

Beside them, Qiu Lin laughed so hard at the grand scene created by Ji Xizhi’s fans that she bent over.

“Zhi Zhi, your fans are too awesome! Hahaha~”

Qiu Lin laughed without any care for her idol image, completely abandoning expression management.

Qiu Lin’s fans:… Fine, a loss is a loss! At least our treasure is amused!

Ji Xizhi also knew Qiu Lin. Before she joined “Escape Room,” Xiao Yuan searched online for the names of the regular guests and showed her, so she remembered.

Qiu Lin, hands on her hips, walked out from her group of fans and stood in front of Ji Xizhi:

“Sorry, I laughed too much. Hello, Zhi Zhi, I’m Qiu Lin, a regular guest on ’Escape Room’! Delighted to record this episode with you~”

Ji Xizhi replied, “Hello, I’m Ji Xizhi.”

“I know, I know, I think the entire entertainment industry knows you now!”

Qiu Lin smiled sweetly and linked arms with Ji Xizhi, intending to head inside the airport.

Seeing Ji Xizhi enter, Xiao Yuan didn’t follow in but instead turned and left the airport to go home.

With a backpack on her shoulders, Ji Xizhi followed Qiu Lin inside the airport. A moment of realization hit her,

“Zhi Zhi, where’s your suitcase?”

Ji Xizhi gestured to the bag on her shoulder, saying, “For a day of recording, a backpack is enough.”

“How can a backpack be enough!” Qiu Lin was anxious, her gaze towards Ji Xizhi becoming curious, “Zhi Zhi, didn’t you watch our show before coming?!”

Ji Xizhi: “Is it necessary to watch? The contract and script Director Xu gave me didn’t mention this.”

Seeing Ji Xizhi’s demeanour, Qiu Lin smacked her forehead.

“Then you’re doomed. You came midway and don’t know; Director Xu is ruthless with guests. One outfit isn’t nearly enough to change! Do you want to go back and have your assistant bring you a few more sets?”

Ji Xizhi glanced towards the door; Xiao Yuan had already left some time ago.

Since Xiao Yuan had already delayed her study time to see her off today, asking her to return would delay it even more.

Ji Xizhi shook her head, “It’s fine, it’s enough.”

As long as she’s careful, there generally wouldn’t be any problems.

Seeing this, Qiu Lin roughly understood Ji Xizhi’s intentions. For a first recording, it indeed wasn’t convenient to keep everyone waiting long.

“No worries, if you run out, wear mine, I brought plenty!”

Qiu Lin felt she had already become familiar with Ji Xizhi.

The two of them arrived together at the location designated by the production team, where the other regular guests had already gathered.

“Escape Room” was composed of regular guests Qian Huiyi, Xie Ming, Mo Anxia, Le Qiqi, and Qiu Lin. The regular guests had filmed together many times before, so they were already familiar with each other, only Ji Xizhi was the temporary guest for this episode.

The regular guests had arrived early. Knowing that the flying guest for this episode was Ji Xizhi, they came early to wait for the new guest.

Of course, the fans of each regular guest were also present, patiently waiting nearby.

Qiu Lin’s fans were different mainly because Qiu Lin loved playing hide and seek with her fans, disguising her identity for them to find, so her fans went to the airport entrance.

The intellectuals had also rushed to the airport entrance. The other guest fans thought there might be a quarrel between the sides.

But unexpectedly, when the fans came back.

They were getting along as if they were close acquaintances.

Other guest fans:?

Before they could comprehend the situation, their eyes were suddenly irritated by the glaring lights of a colourful string of lights.

Other guest fans: Who moved the barber shop lights to the airport!!!

Everyone squinted through slits for a good while before seeing clearly.

Holy crap, not the barber shop, but Ji Xizhi’s fans’ banner?!

Every fan group went silent.

They looked at the support items in their hands and then at those in Ji Xizhi’s fans’ hands.

Got it!

Everyone started pushing their way to Qiu Lin’s fans’ position, move, let me ask first!

The entire airport gradually transformed into a large-scale support item exchange meeting.

Ji Xizhi’s fans held a commanding central position.

The regular guests looked at their own fans, then at Ji Xizhi, who came in with Qiu Lin.

Their feelings were mixed.

According to usual practice, flying guests joining the group should primarily focus on regular guests.

But now…

They had a feeling that this episode might turn the tables.
