Chapter 158: Chapter 144: Gotta Pay More! (Double-Length)

They were carrying cameras, each contacting different companies.

Originally, they planned to clock out and leave, but just after making contact, they heard the company frantically assigning a task.

“Quick! Quickly capture what Ji Xizhi has in her hand!”

“The content of the paper in Ji Xizhi’s hand! I need high-resolution images!”

“Hurry, take more shots!”

The reporters were bewildered upon receiving this task.

What kind of request is this? They’ve only ever been asked to take high-resolution photos of celebrities themselves, never of what’s in their hands.

They might as well capture Ji Xizhi with Xue Fan, or Qi Zheng, that would be much hotter!

The reporters, puzzled, took out their phones and checked the trending topics.

Ji Xizhi’s name trending isn’t surprising at all.

What’s surprising is how the topic changed from #JiXizhiJiTingzhou# to #WhatJixizhiHolding#.

Reporters: Is it really that intriguing?

Upon clicking the tag, they found a rescue image depicting Ji Xizhi was enlarged somehow.

It was the papers in Ji Xizhi’s hand that had been enlarged, with a few blurry characters circled in red.

NoStudyNoCatchZhiZhi: Everyone’s focused on the courageous act, but I’m focusing on this. What’s Zhi Zhi holding? There seem to be words, but I can’t see clearly. Can I get a clearer image?

[Me me me, I noticed too. What’s so important that Zhi Zhi didn’t drop it while rescuing?!]

[She probably was too anxious; looking at this image gives me chills!]

[I have internal info—though I don’t know what’s on the paper, but I heard tonight at the banquet, Feng Family’s eldest son offered Ji Xizhi a generous thank you gift and Zhi Zhi refused! She only asked for these papers!]

[Gold on the paper? Or…could it be an agency contract with a family?!]

[No way, you might as well say it’s a newly released exam paper! I found a slightly clear image, anyone sharp-eyed enough to analyze what the characters are?]

[Draft… one… this is so blurry, can’t see at all, @EntertainmentCommentator are you guys competent or not! More photos please! Is it really a contract?]

Fans online were scratching their heads, unable to see clearly, so they were frantically pinging the reporters.

The reporters were lamenting today’s photos just minutes ago, but seeing so many netizen requests now.

They immediately decided to check the video footage to see if they had captured clearer images. While other photos from tonight couldn’t be released, they could enlarge and crop Ji Xizhi’s paper to bring back the heat!

Carrying their cameras, the reporters planned to start searching right after leaving the banquet.

Just a few steps out, they ran into Ji Xizhi.

Reporters: !!!

Ji Xizhi hadn’t left yet?!

The group delightedly surrounded her.

Better than rummaging for enlarged photos, clearly directly interviewing Ji Xizhi was a superior choice!

Ji Xizhi originally intended to go inside to find Chu Ang, but hadn’t managed before the reporters cornered her on the side.

Qi Zheng and Xue Fan stood on either side, simultaneously extending arms to block Ji Xizhi.

The two worried that Ji Xizhi would be squeezed by the reporters, yet just as they began guarding her, the reporters respectfully stopped two steps away.

Reporters pursuing interviews usually jostled to shoot face-to-face.

At Ji Xizhi’s side, suddenly everyone became orderly, neither crowding nor causing fuss, reminding each other.

“Don’t push, easy does it, remember safety!”

“Watch your step, safety first!”

Clearly everyone had learned about Ji Xizhi mentioning the stomp incident and kept it in mind.

Qi Zheng and Xue Fan exchanged a glance, tacitly withdrawing their outreached hands.

Ji Xizhi really isn’t like other celebrities!

Once reporters were in position, they began asking questions.

“Ji Xizhi, I’m a reporter from X Family, can we get a minute for an interview?”

“Zhi Zhi, we just need a photo, definitely won’t take much of your time~”

Reporters treated Ji Xizhi very well, hardly demanding more time.

Ji Xizhi didn’t refuse, she said: “Go ahead.”

“Ji Xizhi, can I ask what you’re holding in your hand?” Reporters aimed their cameras at the papers Ji Xizhi was still holding.

“This?” Ji Xizhi raised her head slightly and answered directly: “Exam answer analysis.”
