Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius

Chapter 440 414: It's Okay Even If You Leave the Industry



Ji Xizhi: “I can transfer Life Value to you.”

Director Wang: “……”

Let’s just say, when she’s supposed to complete a task, she doesn’t, but when she’s not asked, she jumps at it.

The production team watched, feeling even more frustrated.

As long as Ji Xizhi is around, there’s always something unexpected!

“Forget it, just leave her be. Equipment team, get ready to turn off the lights, 3, 2, 1 — start!”

Ji Xizhi was just about to transfer Life Value to Director Wang and the PDs when the streetlights in the amusement park suddenly flickered a few times, then went out completely.

From afar, came the crackling sound from above.

In the boundless darkness, a splendid firework blossomed.

Then came two, three… countless fireworks, almost lighting up the entire amusement park.

Ji Xizhi stopped what she was doing and looked over.

The sky was filled with fireworks, and six large characters appeared in the center.

“Happy Birthday Zhi Zhi”

Followed by a heart.

[Ahhh… today is Ji Xizhi’s birthday? I didn’t even know. I might be a fake fan, I must reflect on myself boo hoo~!]

[I’ve been holding it in, finally, I can say it hahaha, kept this secret for so long, I really, really wanted to tell everyone earlier, but there was no way, the surprise is finally here!]

[Happy birthday Zhi Zhi~ Knowledge Lovers will always love Zhi Zhi~]

[Wish Zhi Zhi a happy birthday~]

Ji Xizhi never expected to see such a line.

When she looked down again, Director Wang, the PD, and Fang Zhuyue were all gone.

For the first time, Ji Xizhi felt at a loss.

Birthday? Not only in this life has she not celebrated a birthday, but she also didn’t in her previous life.

Because she doesn’t have a birthday.

She simply doesn’t know which day is her birthday, and since there’s no conclusion, she just doesn’t celebrate.

She has never cared about these things.

But now—

Ji Xizhi kind of wanted to laugh, a happy laugh.

Soon, the words “Happy Birthday Zhi Zhi” disappeared from the sky, and darkness spread over the earth again.

But this time, the darkness didn’t last for a few seconds, a faint light appeared once again.

The entire production team pushed a small cart, with a cake and candles on it.

Everyone sang the birthday song, cautiously pushing it in front of Ji Xizhi.

Fang Zhuyue: “Happy birthday Zhi Zhi, love you~”

Zhu Xiu’an: “My gift is the biggest one!”

Qin Yutian: “Sister Zhi Zhi, I hope you’re always happy~”

Guan Fengyan: “Then I’ll wish Zhi Zhi academic progress!”

Sheng Yaoyao: “I wish for Zhi Zhi to be safe and sound, simple happiness is good!”

Director Wang awkwardly glanced away, muttered a little: “…ahem, I have nothing special for you. Next season’s variety show, come if you want.”

The production team members almost took turns to deliver blessings, and the barrage in the livestream rooms also kept scrolling with birthday wishes.

“Thank you, everyone.” Ji Xizhi sincerely expressed her gratitude.

She then prepared to continue speaking.

Suddenly noticed something seemed to be happening behind the production team, but it was too dark, and the amusement park lights were off.

Ji Xizhi couldn’t see clearly.

The fans in the livestream room couldn’t see it either.

[What’s happening at the back?]

[Don’t scare me, in the dark, there won’t be monsters…]

[Ji Xizhi, hold me, I’m scared!]

The atmosphere in the bulletin was tense for less than thirty seconds.

In the darkness behind, a huge light board suddenly lit up.

[Ah, I’m blinded—]

[What the hell, this isn’t a monster, it’s Ji Xizhi’s barbershop, argh, not a light board…]

[??? How could it be a good person’s light board looking like this hahaha!]

The familiar barbershop-style light board started flashing.

Under the light, there were almost a hundred people standing behind.

All were Knowledge Lovers.

A group of people, beaming smiles, holding light boards, shouted: “Happy Birthday Zhi Zhi!”

This group of people wore the amusement park staff uniforms, not even having time to change, they came here directly.

Seeing this, Ji Xizhi’s eyes got a bit red.

She deeply bowed to the fans.

Knowledge Lovers: “Zhi Zhi, you must be happy! Even if you leave the circle, it’s okay, you must do what you want!”

Ji Xizhi replied with a smile: “Alright, you guys too, do what you want to do, I’ll always be in the Zhi Fa CP community, won’t leave.”

When it was time to cut the cake, the production team sent out an explanation.

“Actually, this episode’s plot was planned and arranged together with the Knowledge Lovers. There were Knowledge Lovers at each mission point. Originally planned to build up during the day and then start at night, but who would have thought… Our production team didn’t expect Teacher Ji to not participate at all, but she completed the task and beat Director Wang.”

“If it weren’t for Director Wang stalling for time, the sky wouldn’t have turned dark, and the fireworks wouldn’t have shown the effect!”

“Actually, none of us knew Teacher Ji’s birthday, everyone knows Teacher Ji’s circumstances, so no one dared to ask. The production team needs to thank the Knowledge Lovers, they informed the production team that today was Teacher Ji’s birthday, then we coordinated from all sides to resume recording today~”

There were also Knowledge Lovers explaining in the scene.

“Actually, we didn’t know Zhi Zhi’s birthday either, we found out through Lawyer Qi Zheng’s investigation at the welfare home.”

“We didn’t bring any gifts today, so we had to represent the entire group of Knowledge Lovers, wanting to become Zhi Zhi’s family.”

“Is that okay?”

Ji Xizhi looked at the sea of fans in front of her, unable to respond right away. She took a step back, darted to the stone table she was at before.

No one reacted in time.

Ji Xizhi had already run back and forth, coming back with a stack of stuff in her hands.

Like the mission cards Director Wang and the others had before.

What Ji Xizhi had were small cut-out pieces.

The writing on them was not tasks from the program but Ji Xizhi’s autograph.

She handed the autographs all over.

“You’ve been my family for a long time!”

The Knowledge Lovers were completely stunned seeing the autographed photos.

“Zhi Zhi, you actually…”

The fans were choking up.

But Ji Xizhi just laughed: “Actually, I recognized some people today, Little Mi, Bao Bao, Jiang Jiang… But I didn’t expect everyone came to celebrate my birthday. I saw in the super topic that everyone said they really wanted an autograph, was thinking since we meet during the recording, I’ll give them to everyone after we’re done, now they might not be enough, I’ll sign them all later.”

The Knowledge Lovers were taken aback by Ji Xizhi’s words.

Ji Xizhi remembers everything!

[Oh my, what kind of celestial love is this… exploding with screams!]

[Besides fictional characters, I rarely felt so moved, jealousy disfigures me!]

[9999, together forever, Ji Xizhi and Knowledge Lovers are locked in, I’ve swallowed the key!]

Fireworks bursting like light and fire, shooting into the sky one by one.

The “Life Experience” live stream finally froze the shot on everyone’s happy faces.

This episode ended perfectly.
