REHC – Chapter 66

        While Ruan Tian was sleeping on the plane and Xu Jing was feeling muddled in his heart, the conversation between Ruan Tian and Zhao Meng’er was being enthusiastically interpreted by the netizens watching the live broadcast.

        The netizens could definitely smell the gunpowder between the two actresses through their screens.

        PinkGirl: “@RuanTian: You dare to call me sister? 【coldface.jpg】.”

        【****! hahahahaha, Ruan Tian is a real tigress. 】

        【Sister Tian is really the first person in the entertainment industry with the cure for bitches. Just look at Zhao Meng’er’s face! It’s so dark that I can hardly bear to look, but she still has to try to play the innocent white lotus. It’s hilarious! 】

        【Cure a bitch with a bitch, that’s amazing. It’s wonderful. 】

        【What kind of show is this? I want to go too! ! ! 】

        【I think Zhao Meng’er just wants revenge this time. After all, she looked like an idiot in her role in ‘The Replacement Princess’ when compared to Ruan Tian. As a heroine, she was simply a disgrace. 】

        【She wants revenge on Ruan Tian for cutting off her path to fame. This grievance can’t go unaddressed! Fight! Fight! 】

        Ruan Tian’s direct way of speaking had won over a lot of fans, and they were eager to share with the newcomers how awesome their star was. Summing it up, they said that Ruan Tian was too cool, she dared to say what no one else dared to, and she had nothing but disdain for those ‘great’ people.

        【I’m going to squat in for this live broadcast of ‘Gege and Jiejie’s Journeys’. After all, two of the other four guests can be regarded as Ruan Tian’s enemies, right? I think that the program group is deliberately setting things up and wants to see blood this time hahaha. 】

        【I just want to watch the face-slapping drama. 】

        【Cold and ruthless low-key boss x unrestrained divorced woman. This CP is too good to pass up, let me see it tomorrow! 】

        【Just wait for the JingxTian CP. 】

        The followers on ‘Gege and Jiejie’s Journeys’ quickly increased by over a hundred thousand, and the number of people queueing up to squat in the live broadcast chatroom was also steadily going up. 

        Seven hours later, the plane finally landed at the island airport.

        Ruan Tian, who slept like a pig the whole way, only slowly woke up when she heard the incessant Ding Ding Ding of the aircraft announcing the landing. Feeling an unpleasant pain in her back and shoulders from the uncomfortable seats, she creakily got to her feet, picked up her luggage, and got off the plane.

        Of the five guests, only Ruan Tian didn’t have an agent or assistant with her.

        However, it didn’t matter much because the rule from the program group was: As soon as the plane landed the assistants weren’t allowed to do anything for their artists anymore. The artists would have to pick up their own luggage and find their own way to the accommodations.

        The program group gave all five of them one thousand yuan and told them to travel the island for the next five days.

        Ruan Tian felt that this show was actually very humane. Not only did they pay for the plane tickets to and from the island, now they were even giving her money. 

        And while she felt that one thousand yuan was more than enough, the other guests all seemed slightly dissatisfied.

        Zhao Meng’er put on a pitiful expression, went over to the director, and asked, “Director, can you give me a bit more money?” 

        But the director only responded with one cold word: “No.”

        For this first episode, the program group had considerately booked lodgings for all of them in advance.

        So while Zhao Meng’er was busy crying and acting pitiful, Ruan Tian had already pulled out her phone and was looking for a taxi. After some checking, she found that the airport was around a dozen miles away from the lodgings booked by the crew, and getting there would take about half an hour by taxi. Looking at her phone, Ruan Tian found that the fare would be 200 yuan, or only 40 yuan per person if they all rode together.

        Therefore, after Ruan Tian finished dragging her luggage over, she kindly suggested, “Shall we all take a taxi together?”

        Zhao Meng’er quickly jumped out to disagree. Partly just to go against Ruan Tian, and partly because she was determined to set herself as having a sensible and gentle personality in front of the viewers this time.

        So she bit her lip and said in a trembling tone: “Wouldn’t it be better to take the subway? I don’t think it’s so good to luxuriously decide to take a taxi on the first day of the trip, is it?”

        All other guests began to have a better impression of Zhao Meng’er, thinking that this little girl was quite diligent and thrifty and not at all like a spoiled star.

        Xu Jing didn’t say a word.

        After thinking about it for a while, Ruan Tian said, “But right now the subways will be hot and crowded, and we aren’t familiar with the routes. Plus, everyone still has all of their luggage, so I think it’s better to take a taxi than the subway. If we all ride together it won’t be very expensive.”

        But Zhao Meng’er insisted on going against her no matter what, and she seemed to be addicted to her acting. “Ah, even if it isn’t very expensive, we should think about how to use our money carefully because every penny counts. Compared to taking a taxi for 200, the subway will only cost thirty.”

        “Well, why don’t we just listen to Zhao Meng’er for now and save some time?” Another guest cut it. The speaker was a slightly declined singer surnamed Qi who had many popular songs some years back and who had appeared on the Spring Festival Gala many times.

        After a moment of silence, Ruan Tian said, “Alright. I’ll find someone to carpool with and you all can take the subway.”

        Zhao Meng’er couldn’t wait to get this woman out of the group, so she smiled sweetly and agreed, “Okay.”
