After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Shows
Chapter 411 - 402: Tomboy Changning

Chapter 411: Chapter 402: Tomboy Changning

The airplane pierced through the clouds, and Jiang Lingxi looked out through the small window beside her.

The white clouds layered upon each other; when the morning sun rose, it was a splendid glow, with every cloud edged in gold.

There’s no doubt it was a beautiful view, but looking at it too long felt slightly dazzling.

Lu Zhengzheng considerately handed over a silk eye mask, "Sister Xixi, there’s still about two hours before we land. Do you want to take a nap?"

"Mm."

Before putting on the mask, Jiang Lingxi glanced at the two people seated across the aisle.

But this time, her focus was not on Chong Yin, who took out a book to read seriously as soon as he boarded, but on Luan Feng, who was seated closer to the aisle.

The other person probably didn’t fly often, as they had mistaken their seat when boarding and almost sat in Lu Zhengzheng’s place.

It was only after her reminder that they moved to the correct seat across.

When she was close, she sensed a very faint, almost non-existent scent from this person.

The scent was so subtle that it took a few seconds to remind her it was familiar.

The last time she noticed it was on She Man.

Luan Feng, She Man, if she remembered correctly, these two hadn’t properly met before!

If Luan Feng was the culprit who ruined She Man’s face, why did they do it?

No matter how much she thought, she couldn’t figure out the reason.

However, even if Luan Feng wasn’t the murderer, they were likely connected to them.

It’s a pity the phone needed to stay off now; she could only wait until they deplaned to inform Shen Yunqing of her discovery.

When she opened her eyes again, the sound of flight attendants announcing the plane’s descent reached her ears.

Jiang Lingxi patted Lu Zhengzheng, who was still sleeping soundly beside her. This girl slept much deeper than she did on this trip.

Nowadays, with the crew having an unknown background of Chong Yin, even with protection from Hu Zi and Changning dispatched by Shen Yunqing, she likely wouldn’t sleep as soundly as usual.

No matter past or present lives, as long as she could protect herself, she wouldn’t entrust her life to anyone else!

Once off the plane, the luggage would be managed by the crew’s staff; they just needed to follow the main group out of the airport.

Wei Xiao’s confidentiality work was excellent, and the outside world had no idea the crew had moved to Liangchuan for filming.

This naturally meant there were no fans waiting to greet them.

"Later, there’ll be a new colleague of yours..."

Jiang Lingxi hadn’t finished speaking, and Lu Zhengzheng was still listening intently.

Suddenly, a person appeared beside them.

It was a girl in a light blue tracksuit with a white backpack, sporting short hair not much longer than a boy’s, healthy tan skin, and striking features.

"Ms. Jiang, I’m Changning."

If it weren’t for the recognizable voice, this person would easily be mistaken for a boy.

Honestly, Jiang Lingxi originally thought Changning was a guy, given the name could go either way.

Now realizing it was a girl, she could still accept it.

"Hello," the young girl smiled with a familiarity, and Jiang Lingxi paused only briefly, nodding towards her before noticing Lu Zhengzheng still in a daze, "This is your new colleague."

Lu Zhengzheng: "..."

Where did she come from? She wasn’t prepared at all!

Changning, on the other hand, grinned at her, revealing bright white teeth, pulled out a piece of chocolate from her pocket, and offered it, "It’s almost mealtime, you’re probably hungry, have some chocolate, with liquor filling."

Lu Zhengzheng, affected by the smile, instinctively accepted it, "Thank you."

"You’re welcome. This is my first time being an assistant, you’re my senior, so I thought I’d better ingratiate myself with you."

Lu Zhengzheng was successfully amused, and any initial awkwardness from the first meeting vanished.

Seeing this, Jiang Lingxi knew she needn’t worry.

With Changning’s natural friendliness and lively spirit, she’d surely get along well with Lu Zhengzheng in the coming month.

Just thinking this, she saw the young girl pull out two more pieces of chocolate, "Ms. Jiang, do you want some?"

After learning that she’d be assisting the boss’s wife for the next period, Changning, upon receiving the order, quickly brushed up on what a competent star assistant should do.

She heard that celebrities, especially female ones, don’t eat this or that to lose weight, and she wasn’t sure whether Ms. Jiang would eat the chocolate.

Jiang Lingxi took the two pieces from her palm, "Thank you. I’m a year older than you; you and Zhengzheng can both call me Sister Xixi."

Changning appeared somewhat surprised, "Sister Xixi even knows my age?"

"I heard from Yunqing that you’re adopted by Wu Jue, and at that time, I thought you were only in your teens."

"Oh, so it is. Sister Xixi, don’t be fooled by someone’s youthful appearance; some people look young, but actually, cough cough..."

"No need to say more, I understand."

Jiang Lingxi nodded with a smile, recalling what Elder Zhang said upon seeing Chong Yin.

The elder believed he saw two people; she thought it more likely to be the same person.

The term "youth-preserving techniques" might be consolation and praise for ordinary people, but for mages, it was something they could actually achieve at a cost.

Lu Zhengzheng, chewing on chocolate, finally showed a look of realization upon hearing the conversation between the new colleague and Sister Xixi.

So, it was Mr. Shen worrying about Sister Xixi only bringing her as an assistant to such a remote place for filming, and that was why he sent a new assistant!

Thinking this, she looked at Changning with a somewhat warmer gaze.

When Wei Xiao saw Changning, who looked similar to a tomboy, there was no sign of surprise on his face.

Jiang Lingxi knew from this that Shen Yunqing had already informed him in advance.

Leaving the airport, they got on a coach waiting outside. Without any time to look at the scenery of Liangchuan District, the bus continued on.

This time, it only took about an hour before the bus pulled into a spacious courtyard.

They were to have lunch here and switch to modified vehicles equipped for the desert, taking supplies for the journey ahead.

The food had already been prepared by the time they arrived, with multiple large round tables filled with local specialties.

Wei Xiao said they could sit anywhere, but seating arrangements were somewhat particular.

Lu Zhengzheng, considering herself a senior in front of Changning, volunteered to lead Changning to the assistants’ table. Heading over, she saw two empty seats next to Luan Feng and planned to have Changning sit next to him.

Mainly because she feared sitting next to Luan Feng would make her eat uncomfortably.

Eating beside a handsome guy, one naturally had to mind their image a bit, right?

"Zhengzheng, I’ll sit here."

But Changning quickly moved to another seat; seeing Lu Zhengzheng look over, she winked, "I don’t like having someone prettier than me sit beside me during meals."

Lu Zhengzheng: "..."

Luan Feng, who heard it clearly: "..."

He couldn’t help but chuckle softly.

"This is the first time I’ve heard of such a habit."

"Well," Changning met Luan Feng’s gaze, with a touch of provocation in her tone, "personal habits, please understand!"

"Alright, I respect some people’s personal habits."

Lu Zhengzheng, who could only sit between the two: "..."

Why did it suddenly feel like the atmosphere became tense?

Luckily, the meal went relatively peacefully, if one overlooked their constant sneaky attempts to grab each other’s favorite dishes.

After eating their fill, they switched vehicles and hit the road again.

The modified cars, excluding the driver, could seat four to five people differently.

Jiang Lingxi had just gotten into one with Lu Zhengzheng and Changning when she looked out the window and saw Wei Minmin with Pei Xinyuan running into Chong Yin and Luan Feng.

Apparently, her vehicle was quite popular!
