So in the program, she was ostracized. When they played games, she was also the one who got picked on the most. The only female host, Tian Tian, always excluded her both openly and covertly. The eldest host, Han Tao, was somewhat caring towards her, while another host was ambiguously mean. People in the entertainment circle are very opportunistic; they all like to ride on someone’s coattails. She had no fame, so the hosts wouldn’t even spare her a glance, and Han Tao probably took care of her only because of Yuan Pan and Donghui Entertainment’s sake. "When I become famous, I won’t come even if you beg me," she thought. However, at this moment, she could only endure everyone’s pranks. Any wrong answer would result in a basin of water being poured over her head, drenching her face and head. The questions were all subjective, with the definition of right and wrong in the hands of the other party. If they wanted to let you off, you wouldn’t have to suffer. But if they wanted to pick on you, like now, basin after basin would come pouring down, soaking her clothes through and her makeup almost smearing completely, looking utterly embarrassed yet having to force a smile. She felt like everyone was laughing at her. She had never been so humiliated before. Her dignity was being trampled on the floor by these people, and she had to show gratitude. At this moment, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. She suddenly remembered what Yuan Pan had once told her: if you want to enter the entertainment industry, you must be mentally prepared; otherwise, you’d better quit now. What kind of mental preparation? To be ready for mockery, belittlement, and disdain. Had she admitted defeat just like that? No, she would absolutely not give in. She had to become famous, famous enough to make these sanctimonious people regret underestimating her. There was no place crueler and more ruthless than the entertainment industry, she realized profoundly. No matter how much she hated them inside, she still showed a sweet smile on her face. The frail-looking girl made people feel a pang of conscience. In the end, Han Tao stepped in to stop it, letting her go and change her clothes for the next segment. Backstage, Ah Ning handed her clean clothes, "Chengcheng, your makeup has all come off." Xue Chengcheng rushed to the mirror and saw her hair wet and sticking to her face, mascara, eyeliner, lipstick all smeared, looking dirty. Especially her face, without the cover of makeup, spots sprouted like mushrooms after rain, and there were no bangs to hide her facial flaws, revealing her ordinary appearance—just another face in the crowd that nobody would notice. When she thought about how she just appeared on camera looking , Xue Chengcheng was so angry she wanted to commit murder, and Ah Ning watched her with concern, "Chengcheng, what’s wrong?" Xue Chengcheng took a deep breath and smiled at her reflection, "Nothing, I just suddenly understood something." With that, she took the clothes and went into the changing room. She suddenly recalled how she had browsed gossip forums before and someone, under the cover of anonymity, had leaked scandals about celebrities. At that time, someone revealed that Tian Tian had slept her way to the top, otherwise, she would not have achieved her current status. Guesses were made but no one hit the mark, and as the issue blew up, Tian Tian won a libel lawsuit against the person who made the post, resulting in a compensation for emotional distress and the removal of the post. Tian Tian had extremely high popularity in the country and was widely known, with a cohort of loyal fans, and few scandals over the years. Xue Chengcheng sneered coldly; she had finally figured out why Tian Tian had been ostracizing her. Tian Tian initially was just a contracted model under Donghui Entertainment with hardly any presence, and only after being heavily promoted did she join this variety show as a host and started to rise to fame. The most widespread rumor back then was that she had climbed into bed with Guan Donghui, which was why she rose so quickly, but only a few believed it because Tian Tian was not particularly good-looking, and it was her variety show talent that got her noticed while Guan Donghui was known for liking beauties. Hence, although widely spread, not many were convinced. But according to her gut feeling, Tian Tian definitely had something with Guan Donghui, and now she was an artist under Donghui Entertainment. According to Guan Donghui’s usual behavior, it was very likely he had his eyes on her, which was why Tian Tian was so antagonistic towards her. Xue Chengcheng felt certain she had guessed correctly; it must be so. After the recording was finished, the hosts invited the guests to KTV, but Xue Chengcheng excused herself, citing feeling unwell and wanting to leave early. Content originally comes from ⓝovelFire.net "Already thinking of acting like a diva before you even become famous, young people these days, tsk tsk..." Tian Tian clicked her high heels and left without looking back. The others looked over, feeling that Tian Tian was right, this girl didn’t know how to behave.
