Chapter 66: Does This Look Like Someone Who Was Kicked Out for Being Broke?

As the New Year approached, everyone got busier.

Specifically, it was reflected in the chat messages of the Dark Shark King Director Alliance group dropping below 99+.

Nobody mentioned Ji Xizhi’s news of moving out in the group, and no one expected it either.

The few people in the Dark Shark King Director Alliance, having finally finished their work at the end of the year, secretly agreed to surprise Ji Xizhi together.

The three got the address from Director Wang and quietly arrived at Ji Xizhi’s place.

Zhu Xiu’an, holding five electronic firecrackers in one hand, set them off noisily at the door of the house where Ji Xizhi used to live.

Fang Zhuyue and Qin Yutian both looked up and down, pretending not to know this person.

The sound of electronic firecrackers quickly woke up the landlord inside the house, who hurriedly opened the door a crack.

“Whose kid is setting off firecrackers in the hallway?!” The landlord shouted angrily.

Upon opening the door, they saw Zhu Xiu’an standing there like a humanoid firecracker machine.

The two of them stared at each other, both stunned, eyes wide in surprise.

“Who are you?”

Zhu Xiu’an was full of question marks. Who was this person! Didn’t he have any sense of shame???

Luckily, he had worn a mask and hat in advance!

Zhu Xiu’an quietly raised his hands, cautiously blocking the electronic firecrackers in front of him.

Fang Zhuyue was quick-witted, seeing the unfamiliar man coming out of Ji Xizhi’s place, she immediately asked, “Hello, we’re looking for Ji Xizhi, is she here?”

The landlord took a moment to recall, “Ji Xizhi? Oh, you mean the pretty girl renting here? Her lease ended today, she moved out.”

“Moved out? To where???”

The three of them were all shocked.

The landlord answered nonchalantly, “I don’t know, she moved out this afternoon!”

With that, they closed the door.

Seeing this, Fang Zhuyue quickly dialed Ji Xizhi’s number.

Ji Xizhi was at the hotel, lounging in air-conditioned comfort, looking through a lawyer’s forum on her laptop.

Seeing Fang Zhuyue’s call, she set aside the laptop and answered.

Fang Zhuyue: “Zhi Zhi, why did you move?”

Ji Xizhi hadn’t expected Fang Zhuyue to find out about her move so quickly.

She casually replied, “Hangxing Entertainment stopped renting from the landlord, so I moved out.”

Fang Zhuyue: “What? That’s just too much!!! Come live with me, from now on you can stay at my place!”

Ji Xizhi: “No need, I’ve already found another place.”

Zhu Xiu’an, feeling the strain on his arms, shouted loudly.

“Then send us your location. We came to your place and you’re not here, I’m exhausted!”

Fang Zhuyue, being considerate, first asked, “Zhi Zhi, did you find a new place? Is the environment good? Can we come over?”

She thought, Hangxing Entertainment treated her this way and even kicked her out, Zhi Zhi surely doesn’t have much money, so the place she rented might not be great. If the environment is too bad when she gets there, she’ll just help Zhi Zhi move her luggage to her place.

Fang Zhuyue was pondering this, and Qin Yutian had a similar thought. He couldn’t conveniently let Ji Xizhi stay at his house, but lending her some money was definitely no problem.

With a heavy heart, they looked at the location Ji Xizhi sent them.

Hmm? Weston Five-Star Hotel???

The three of them thought, maybe the location is off.

They drove towards the location.

Arriving near the hotel, they began asking Ji Xizhi for specific details.

Ji Xizhi directly sent them her room number.

When the three of them got upstairs to the hotel door, seeing the suite with a panoramic sea view through the full-length glass windows, they all paused.

Excuse us, does this look like someone who got kicked out for not having money???

Ji Xizhi vacated the sofa, inviting everyone to sit down.

Zhu Xiu’an immediately activated the electronic firecrackers again, filling the hotel with the crackling sound.

Ji Xizhi: “…”

“What are you doing?”

Zhu Xiu’an reflexively replied, “Celebrating your exams being over! Plus this time I’m being lawful, these are electronic firecrackers, not illegal!”

Ji Xizhi cast him a sidelong glance, “It’s already 10 o’clock now, noise disturbance is also illegal.”

Zhu Xiu’an: “…”

He was forced to learn another lesson.

With the electronic firecrackers off, the room became significantly quieter.

The group huddled on the sofa, having seen the trending discussions a few days ago but never asking Ji Xizhi how her exams went, just lounging around.

Zhu Xiu’an, bored, reached out and turned on the TV, and a familiar legal education program appeared.

Zhu Xiu’an: … Suddenly, he didn’t feel like watching it anymore.

Ji Xizhi checked the time, holding her phone, and asked, “Shall we order some food?”

Zhu Xiu’an: “I want fried chicken!”

Qin Yutian politely said, “A portion of chicken breast, please.”

Fang Zhuyue: “I’ll have a salad.”

Half an hour later, the table was filled with fried chicken, skewers, beer, and crayfish.

The three of them ate wildly, internally counting how long they’d have to run tomorrow.

Ji Xizhi also rarely relaxed, downed a cup of fizzy water, as they listened to the legal program together and watched the countdown outside the window.

The countdown went from 1 to 0, with lights bursting across the sky like giant fireworks in the dark sky.

In an instant, the darkness was scattered, making the sky as bright as day.

Darkness can never stop the light from appearing.

Ji Xizhi glanced at the legal education program still playing on TV, her lips curving slightly.

She wanted to become that light.

–

In the time that followed, everyone got busier preparing for various New Year’s Eve events.

Ji Xizhi enjoyed the leisure.

The person who posted on the forum previously soon lost their case.

In utter despair, they remembered something Ji Xizhi had once said on the forum.

Without thinking, he opened the forum and removed Ji Xizhi from the blacklist.
