The Idol Group Pet Became A Final Boss! Chapter 193 - If We'd Known It Would Come To This, Why Did W

Everyone understood the logic behind it, but it was hard to accept nonetheless.

The executives watched patiently for half an hour. Zhuo Yi and Jiang Yun'er had performed very well. Plus, they were very well known in the industry, so the viewer count remained stable.

But...

Muyao TV didn't want stability! They wanted explosive fame!

These numbers were far from satisfactory when pared with those of "Two Under One Roof"!

Moreover, Zhuo Yi and Jiang Yun'er had taken tens of millions in payment too! They had spent so much money but did not gain the d.e.s.i.r.ed explosive effect. The executives were quite disappointed.

If they had known this ahead of time, they would have just invited cheaper guests; there might have even been more viewers.

"Change the stream to 'Two Under One Roof', I want to see what about this show is attracting so many viewers!" The director manded.

The deputy director chuckled coldly. "If we knew this was going to be the result, then why did we bother in the first place."

She was dressed in a capable black and white suit and skirt in delicate makeup and a powerful aura, the typical image of a strong independent businesswoman.

From the start, she was opposed to the practice of plagiarizing ideas from other programs. But no matter how insistent she was, her connections were average. Recently, she had been involved in a few factional conflicts and lost most of her right to decision making.

Before, when Li Jianyu had been forced to leave, she was the first one to try and help him. After being refused, she still continued to mention Li Jianyu a lot.

Now that "Two Under One Roof" was getting more popular, she was quite glad to be honest.

Unfortunately...

They were now in an era where dirty money can suppress good money, and interests were paramount above all else.

At the manor.

The guests were divided into two groups. Yin Jiangxue followed after Xiang Yi, learning how to pickle vegetables, while Sheng Guang, Xiang Li, and Shi Sui went off to pick fruits in preparation to make jam later.

"Don't use unfiltered water or oil when you're making pickled veggies, it has to be distilled and cooled water..." Xiang Yi explained the steps of making the pickle brine in a warm voice. She even wrote a sweet little note on a piece of paper and stuck it in a noticeable place. That way, it could serve as a reminder and avoid mishaps.

Because of her appearances, Yin Jiangxue had fallen in love with the girl from first glance. Before arriving, she'd read several posts of rumors and scandals regarding Xiang Yi, though she did not believe them at all. She was even more assured when she met her in person.

She had worked too hard making films in her younger years which developed a permanent illness. The doctors diagnosed that it would be difficult for her to get pregnant, which was why her previous husband had left her.

Fortunately, she'd met Sheng Guang. The two were very patible and affectionate toward each other, but several netizens would still make a fuss about her not being able to bear children.

She didn't understand why people would say such vicious and ugly things from behind the screen.

Yin Jiangxue was emotional. "If I had not gone off to film movies and just got married earlier, my daughter would be your age now, Xiang Yi."

Xiang Yi's eyelashes fluttered, her eyes clear as a lake. "Mentor Yin, do you regret it?"

"Several people have asked me that question, but my answer will always be...no." As soon as she spoke, a blank gaze appeared in Yin Jiangxue's eyes. "But in the future, I am not sure..."

She was actually very scared that one day, in the future, she would regret her choice.

"Who can be sure of the future? The only constant in this world is change itself."

Yin Jiangxue was deep in thought. "That makes sense."

"Logic is logic, but humans aren't rational creatures. So..ntor Yin, may I take the liberty to ask, can I hug you?"

The girl's eyebrows curved up. Under the warm sunlight, her eyes were bright and soft.

Yin Jiangxue was stunned for a moment and took the initiative to hug the girl. She felt her nose scrunch up.

Perhaps all she needed was a gentle hug.
