Reborn As Super Heiress

In a certain neighborhood, Wu Jingyi sat silently on the sofa, watching the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala. When she saw Huo Sining’s magic performance receive countless cheers and applause from the audience, a strong sense of jealousy instantly surged from the depths of her heart, and her gaze was filled with envy and resentment.

The more successfully Huo Sining performed, the more uncomfortable Wu Jingyi felt inside, wishing desperately that it was her, not Huo Sining, standing on stage, soaking in the adoration of countless people.

Frustrated, Wu Jingyi lost interest in watching the Spring Festival Gala and started browsing the internet with her laptop. However, her online experience was just as disappointing—numerous news articles featured Huo Sining, and on Weibo, she occupied five or six of the top ten trending topics. On her own homepage, countless people were posting about watching the Spring Festival Gala and how Miss Magic’s performance was truly amazing tonight.

The screen was completely dominated by Huo Sining; there was nowhere where Miss Magic’s presence wasn’t felt. Wu Jingyi was instantly overwhelmed, feeling as if she had swallowed a fly, so angry she nearly smashed her computer.

At that moment, there was new activity on her Weibo homepage. A fan tagged her, asking what had happened and why she boycotted the performance right when the Spring Festival Gala was about to air.

Of course, Wu Jingyi was aware of the seriousness of this matter. Before the company came up with a specific plan, she couldn’t disclose her whereabouts or tell the fans the specifics because she didn’t know how the company planned to handle this issue. Speaking out randomly might mess up the company’s upcoming plans and arrangements.

Wu Jingyi didn’t answer the fan’s question, pretending she hadn’t seen it. However, her action planted the seeds of trouble for herself. Sharp-eyed netizens noticed a small detail in the private message chat box at the bottom right of Weibo: Ada’s Weibo avatar was green, meaning Ada was currently online.

Once that was discovered, someone quickly took a screenshot and posted it, declaring, ”No need to argue; Ada is clearly fine. Her Weibo is online, so she still has the mind to surf the net, proving she neither had a car accident nor got arrested. Those guessing she had an accident or got detained can stop!”

As soon as the screenshot was posted, many fans saw it, leaving some fans puzzled, ”If she’s online, why doesn’t she reply to us? So many people care about her; she could just tell us she’s okay.”

Some spectators who loved a good spectacle couldn’t help but scoff, ”Xinghui hasn’t responded; how could an artist privately talk to you? Xinghui probably hasn’t even decided what to say yet. If she speaks rashly, wouldn’t she mess up Xinghui’s plans?”

”Exactly, I think Ada’s not in trouble; she just doesn’t want to talk to you. You fans throwing yourselves at her, and she might secretly be calling you fools!”

Underneath, a group of people were coldly mocking. Some fans felt disheartened and emotionally unsubscribed, while others, although saying nothing, felt somewhat cold and disappointed inside.

Wu Jingyi hadn’t been in the industry long and hadn’t firmly established herself in the entertainment circle. With the scandal out now, and Xinghui also not sending any PR to handle it promptly, naturally, fans became dissatisfied.

At this moment, Han Wen posted a long Weibo, confirming the previous rumor that Xinghui’s artist boycotted. Moreover, at the end of the post, she revealed that in the upcoming Spring Festival Gala, after her program, Miss Magic Huo Sining would perform again, not magic this time but a skit, temporarily filling Ada’s role.

This news exploded online, with netizens having a heated discussion over Han Wen’s big revelation. Of course, people’s main focus was not on Xinghui’s artist being blacklisted by Han Wen but rather that Huo Sining, a magician, was surprisingly performing a skit.

Netizens found it curious and unbelievable, but on the other hand, Wu Jingyi was fuming. Upon hearing that Huo Sining had snatched her skit role, Wu Jingyi’s eyes turned red with rage, and her eyes flared with intense resentment and hatred.

She was convinced that the rash she got was caused by Huo Sining, and now Huo Sining had also replaced her, taking over the skit role she had worked hard to secure. Wu Jingyi naturally linked these two incidents, believing it was all Huo Sining’s conspiracy—to ruin her and An Rong so they couldn’t perform at the Spring Festival Gala. This way, Huo Sining could have it all to herself, snatching her skit role!

Thinking about it this way, the hatred in Wu Jingyi’s heart was unstoppable, her face twisted and contorted with jealousy, almost swallowing her whole.

Huo Sining didn’t know what expression Wu Jingyi had at this moment, but she could guess that upon learning she had replaced her role, Wu Jingyi might be so angry she’d pass out.

This was exactly Huo Sining’s intention. She didn’t care much for the Spring Festival Gala role; when Han Wen asked her to help, her first thought was to refuse. But if performing meant making Wu Jingyi furious, Huo Sining was happy to oblige.

At 10:24 PM, the program before their skit had already gone on stage, and the four people in Huo Sining’s skit group were doing final preparations.

After going through the lines once more and confirming no issues, Qiao Kun smiled, patted Huo Sining on the shoulder, and said, ”Though it’s your first time acting a skit, you’re way better than the previous little star. Don’t be nervous; just perform like we rehearsed in the resting room earlier, and you’ll be fine!”

Huo Sining knew Qiao Kun was encouraging and comforting her, so she smiled and said, ”Teacher Qiao, I’m not nervous.”

Huo Sining truly wasn’t nervous; not to mention with her memory, these lines were no difficulty at all, not to mention she had Space. Before going on stage, she had already placed the skit lines into her storage ring. Even if she got stuck, she could secretly take a peek at the script in Space, so forgetting lines simply wouldn’t happen.

Three minutes before going on stage, as the time drew closer, the topic’s popularity on Weibo climbed, and many people turned their TVs to CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala. More and more people watched the gala, all to see Huo Sining perform the skit.

Of course, the majority of them hoped to see Huo Sining make a fool of herself, the Huaxia people’s weakness—loving to watch drama unfold, wishing for some chaos at the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.
