Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Suddenly Made a Comeback!
Chapter 392 Connected to Shang Shaobai

Chapter 392: Chapter 392 Connected to Shang Shaobai

Bai Lu’s hopeful heart had sunk once again.

An announcement? Ever since Su Yinwan snatched up the guest spot on "Waist Twisting Transformation Trip," Bai Lu hadn’t received any work.

Even her agent had stopped contacting her.

This was a very dangerous signal, indicating that she was almost frozen out of the industry.

How could there possibly be a new opportunity now?

Despite her despondence, Bai Lu was grateful for Jiang Li’s advice, so she rewarded him with a gift cannon worth ten thousand yuan during her live stream and then transferred another ten thousand yuan to him.

"Sorry, Master, this is all the money I have now. I hope you won’t mind."

But to her surprise, Jiang Li returned her transfer and sent her a message—

"Never lose your courage to move forward, a new world lies across the shore."

This brief message made her heart pound incessantly.

Jiang Li really understood her so well!

Indeed, the world had more kind-hearted people.

The screen also started to display comforting messages for Bai Lu.

Seeing those little red hearts, it was hard for her not to be moved.

Perhaps that was why she persisted in the entertainment industry; there were always people silently supporting her whom she had never met. Just knowing they were there filled her with energy.

Bai Lu’s voice tinged with emotion as she thanked everyone.

But as soon as she ended the call, a familiar number dialed in.

It was her agent.

Bai Lu hurriedly answered the call, and her agent spoke impatiently on the other end:

"...There’s a chance for you to get some exposure. I’ve sent the contract to your email. I went to a lot of trouble to secure this for you, so you better value it."

With that, he hung up the phone.

Bai Lu couldn’t believe what she had heard.

Was there really an announcement?!

She excitedly opened her phone, but the moment she saw the contract, a cold shower doused her excitement.

"’Wilderness Survival 30 Days’ guest contract?"

Wasn’t that the outrageous reality show where someone had once died?!

Bai Lu instantly became worried. Although she had some talent, it was only meant for performing in front of cameras. As for surviving in the wilderness, she was utterly clueless.

Going there would be like leaving her fate in the hands of the heavens, wouldn’t it?

But Jiang Li’s words echoed in her ears again.

What if this was her last chance? Could she possibly turn things around with this show?

She was already at rock bottom; what more did she have to fear from failure?

Why not give it one more try?

Bai Lu clenched her fists, made up her mind, and then signed her name at the bottom of the contract.

...

...

After addressing the concerns of the second lucky viewer, Jiang Li proceeded to try connecting with the third viewer—who happened to be the one with a string of numbers as their ID.

At that time, Shang Shaobai was at home hosting an online meeting, when his mobile phone on the desk began to vibrate.

His curiosity piqued, he shifted his gaze and discovered that it was a connection request from Jiang Li’s live streaming room.

Shang Shaobai was somewhat surprised.

He had merely clicked into this woman’s livestream out of curiosity, how had he drawn a slot?

Although he had never officially met her, Shang Shaobai knew quite a bit about her.

The first time he saw her had been at a business reception, where she wore seductive makeup and relentlessly pursued his brother, Shang Shaojing.

When he saw her again, she stood in front of the camera in a long dress, her demeanor cold and detached, unaffected by praise or criticism; she even mocked Shang Shaojing heatedly.

The third time they met was at Du Sang’s party, where he sat in a dimly lit corner watching her confidently challenge Jin Siyue, cunningly raising her auction paddle time and again.

The last time they met, she seriously impressed him; in the Golden Sand hall with its interplay of light and shadows, she sat at the end of the long table, a faint smile on her face as she drank Jin Siyue, known as the "King of Wines", under the table, and then dominantly erected a now iconic sign at the entrance of Golden Sand.

And now, she was actually hosting a fortune-telling livestream on Weibo.

This woman truly was interesting.

However, what intrigued him even more was her relationship with Gu Yu.

They were ostensibly unrelated, yet Gu Yu had publicly broken with Jin Siyue for her.

What other secrets did she hold?

With this thought, Shang Shaobai hurriedly ended the meeting and picked up his phone to connect the call.

[One minute has passed, and finally, this "Number Brother" has shown up.]

[One might think he’s some big shot, quick, tell us about your tragic experiences so we can have a laugh.]

[I’ve moved my little stool over; last guest now.]

Jiang Li still said, "As usual, please send me your Four Pillars of Destiny privately."

Shang Shaobai hesitated.

Being born in the upper class, he had encountered mysticism before, and his understanding of it was not inferior to that of ordinary people, so he knew the importance of one’s Four Pillars of Destiny.

But more than this, he wanted to know if Jiang Li’s abilities were truly as miraculous as rumored online.

After thinking it through, he sent his own Four Pillars of Destiny truthfully.

The moment she saw the message, Jiang Li raised her eyebrows.

It turned out to be an old acquaintance.

Indeed, what’s meant to come will always come.

After a slight smile, she reined in her thoughts and asked, "Sir, how should I address you?"

Shang Shaobai did not reveal his real name; "My surname is Tang."

"Mr. Tang, hello."

[Wow, Sister Li is amazing, she knew he was male before he even spoke.]

[The voice sounds quite young too, too bad, why doesn’t anyone on the mic today want to show their face?]

Jiang Li continued, "Then, as usual, let me first calculate your past experiences."

"You were born into a wealthy family, your father made his fortune from scratch, accumulating considerable wealth. However, I see that your annual pillar is conflicting; your parents probably didn’t get along well, and with your weakened Yin Star sitting in a completely barren position, it indicates that your mother passed away early, probably when you were three years old. The next year, your father remarried, and this stepmother of yours has quite the interesting background..."

Jiang Li deliberately paused, adding an air of mystery, "This stepmother of yours greatly boosted your father’s fortunes; one could say, half of your family’s assets rely on your stepmother now."

Shang Shaobai’s lips parted in astonishment.

Was Jiang Li really this capable?

To have even figured out when his mother had died?

"Not bad." Shang Shaobai pushed up his glasses; a deep voice spilled from his lips, his gaze darkening momentarily, "My mother and father had been together since high school, got married right after graduating from college, and then they had me."

But even the best relationships can’t withstand the wear and tear of daily life; even the closest feelings can’t resist the temptations of money.freeweɓnovel.cѳm
