God-Level Special Forces Soldier

After Lin Bingxuan finished signing her name, the girl jumped up excitedly, bowed deeply to her, and then scampered off into the distance as if fleeing.

Lin Bingxuan was about to hand the pen back to the girl, but was left in a daze by this bizarre scene. What was going on?

”Let’s go!” Xiao Tian pulled Lin Bingxuan along in the direction the girl had run, with an expression on his face that was both amused and odd.

Lin Bingxuan followed him instinctively, but was utterly bewildered: ”Where are we going?”

”Taking you to see a good show!”

Hearing Xiao Tian’s response, Lin Bingxuan was even more puzzled, but had no choice but to follow him, curious to see what ”good show” he was talking about...

They twisted and turned until Lin Bingxuan felt completely lost. As she looked around at the increasingly shabby houses, she was utterly amazed; she never expected there to be such places in Shanghai.

Xiao Tian also hadn’t expected there to be such outdated residential buildings in central Shanghai. He was merely sensing the girl’s location and following her.

After a series of twists and turns, Xiao Tian stopped at the entrance to a secluded alleyway.

Lin Bingxuan was about to ask what was going on, when she heard someone in the alleyway speak: ”How did it go?”

”Everything went smoothly. I never thought there would be such a gullible female star!”

Lin Bingxuan immediately covered her mouth in shock. Wasn’t that the girl who had just asked her for an autograph?

Seeing Lin Bingxuan’s shock, Xiao Tian quickly gestured for her to be quiet and continue listening.

In the secluded alleyway, there were five or six people, both men and women. The girl who had asked for the autograph earlier was taking off her backpack when a heavily made-up girl asked, ”Sister Qi, that must be some low-profile star without much fame, right?”

The girl referred to as Sister Qi took off the strap of her backpack and said, ”No, no, I’ve been in this business for years and I of all people wouldn’t misjudge. Although she kept herself well-covered and I didn’t see her face, that figure... tsk tsk, unforgettable!”

”Then we’ve hit the jackpot this time!”

”Sister Qi is amazing!”

”Right? Has any star ever been difficult for Sister Qi to handle?!”

Listening to the endless flattery around her, Sister Qi swept her long hair to the front and said, ”Enough with the nonsense. Quickly, let’s see who the hot female star is!”

The people around her immediately shut their mouths, gathering around, looking at the signature on Sister Qi’s back with eager anticipation...

Everyone was speechless upon seeing the extremely elegant handwriting alongside a name they didn’t recognize, wide-eyed and at a loss for words.

”Come on, who is it?”

Seeing everyone silent for so long without any reaction, Sister Qi impatiently asked.

Inside, she was a bit excited too. These were professionals in reselling celebrity merchandise; if even they were stunned into silence, it suggested that the star who signed must be a top-tier diva!

”Lin Bingxuan...”

Hearing this strange name from behind her, Sister Qi suddenly flared up with anger: ”I asked which celebrity it is, what the heck is Lin Bingxuan?!”

At the alleyway entrance, Xiao Tian was already doubled over with silent laughter, completely ignoring Lin Bingxuan’s face, which had turned a shade of blue behind her sunglasses and mask.

This was a deception on her compassionate nature and an insult to her intelligence!

The voice of the heavily made-up girl from earlier rang out again from the alleyway: ”Sister Qi, is there a current hot female star named Lin Bingxuan?!”

”Lin Bingxuan?” Sister Qi turned around with a look of confusion. She then realized that the Lin Bingxuan everyone was murmuring about was the name signed on the back of the white T-shirt.

As they exchanged glances, all of them indicated that they hadn’t heard of a hot celebrity named Lin Bingxuan,

yet everyone trusted Sister Qi, who had been in the industry for years, thinking maybe she signed her real name?

Immediately, someone took out their phone to search if any celebrity’s real name was Lin Bingxuan.

While everyone busily pulled out their phones to search, Sister Qi waved her hand to stop them: ”No need to check, I know this person!”

”You know her?!”

The people around her were surprised. Could there be such a coincidence in the world?

”Not just know her, but unforgettable!” Sister Qi said through gritted teeth.

”Lin Bingxuan, the idol of Shanghai University students, the CEO of a listed company. Because of her, I ended up here.” Sister Qi said, seeing the bad look on the faces of those beside her, adding, ”But without her, I wouldn’t have met all you talented people!”

Seeing the faces around her soften slightly, Sister Qi complimented the people beside her, though she secretly cursed them for their inefficiency, almost as bad as idiots.

If it weren’t for the fact that she had no one else to use, she wouldn’t have bothered with this bunch of rabble.

”Sister Qi, what’s the story between you and that Lin Bingxuan…” The heavily made-up girl spoke up, voicing the question on everyone’s mind.

This Sister Qi was once a top figure in the industry, a nightmare for those hot stars, rumored to have many celebrities ask her to withdraw and buy back their black material.

When this industry legend approached them, everyone felt a surreal sense of disbelief as if they were in a dream.

They had asked why Sister Qi sought them out, and at the time, she said it was because her company had a problem, and she wanted to rally people to make a comeback.

Painting them a grand picture, they all followed Sister Qi loyally, still curious about the real cause of her company’s problems.

Now, seeing Sister Qi’s gritted teeth expression, they suspected that the downfall of this industry legend must have something to do with the president of that listed company, Lin Bingxuan.

”It’s simple.” Sister Qi said as if it was no big deal: ”We collaborated with Lin Bingxuan’s corporate rivals to publish a series of articles about her falsifying her educational background, then her company sued us...”

At this point, everyone understood. No matter how powerful Sister Qi was, she couldn’t fight against capital. It was no surprise she was sued to bankruptcy.

”Were the things you exposed at the time true?” the heavily made-up girl next to her asked again. Nobody thought her question dumb.

Because the things Sister Qi had exposed before were indeed true and not baseless, and gossip was always human nature, especially for this group that made a living from it.

At this moment, hearing Sister Qi mention the CEO of a listed company falsifying her education, they couldn’t help but ask about its authenticity.

”No, including the doubts about Lin Bingxuan’s height and weight being fake, those weren’t true either.” Sister Qi thought she’d opened Pandora’s box, so she continued, ”As for the news questioning Lin Bingxuan’s personal conduct, that’s even more unwarranted.”

”I never even interacted with Lin Bingxuan, how would I know about her character?” Sister Qi paused, then suddenly looked at the heavily made-up woman and said, ”Xiaoying, work hard. You have a bright future ahead!”
