Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 339 - 334: The Typical Case of Flourishing with a Little Sunshine
Lin Qing shivered.
The girl in front of her, whose gender was indistinguishable, clearly had a smile on her lips, but she felt utterly terrified.
Her whole body felt like it fell into an ice cave, trembling uncontrollably.
"I... I..."
"Can you tell me the answer later?"
Ji Ning only stood up to help her get up after seeing Lin Qing nod.
"Your clothes are a bit dirty; I’ll buy you a new one when we get back." Ji Ning said as she glanced at Ye Tong.
She immediately smiled and stepped forward, supporting Lin Qing’s other arm, her face full of smiles, "Sister Qing, is this dress of yours a Yusiteng? I’ll buy you the latest model when we get back. I remember you like red."
Lin Qing’s body shook, and Ye Tong’s voice in her ear was like that of a devil, instilling fear.
Lin Qing’s mind went blank, timidly being led far away by Ye Tong.
When Ye Tong saw no outsiders around, she leaned in towards Lin Qing and lowered her voice, "Sister Qing, my sister Ning is very honest; if you’ve found the person, she will definitely keep her promise..."
If the person isn’t found...
Lin Qing swallowed a gulp of saliva and hurriedly ran off: "I’ll go right now."
Ye Tong was very curious about the address Ji Ning mentioned and ran over to ask quietly. Ji Ning raised her eyebrows and said, "If a secret is known by too many people, it loses its intimidation."
Ye Tong was taken aback for a moment, then covered her ears with both hands, indicating "she wasn’t listening anymore."
Ji Ning smiled faintly, appreciating her tact.
Elsewhere, Lin Qing hurriedly ran out of the film base, running back to her rented house all in one breath.
"Sister Qing, what’s wrong? Do you need to go to the hospital?" Her co-actor, seeing her pale face and forehead drenched in sweat, thought she was not feeling well.
But Lin Qing pushed her away and headed straight for her room, quickly locking the door as if something wild was chasing her from behind.
The co-actor felt a bit uncomfortable, glared at the door, and muttered softly: "No good deed goes unpunished."
"Why bother with her? Watch out for her scheming behind your back."
"Sigh, isn’t it just because she seems quite pitiful alone?"
"No matter how pitiful, she’s doing better than us. Let’s go..."
Inside the room, Lin Qing curled up on the floor, her fingers trembling as she dialed a phone number, but there was no answer on the other side.
Suddenly, Ji Ning’s face popped into her mind again, making her even more frightened. She closed her eyes tightly, then opened them, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and got up from the floor.
Lin Qing’s room was not big, filled with many props.
She quickly pulled out an expensive-looking outfit to change into, then chose a wig that looked very similar to Ye Tong’s hair, and finally did her makeup to resemble Ye Tong. When she put on sunglasses, she looked at least seventy percent like Ye Tong.
Then, holding her bag, she headed to the café where they were supposed to meet.
When Ji Ning heard Xiao Kong’s report from the shadows, she was somewhat surprised.
Then her lips curled into a slight smile.
Nice...

Café.
Jin Jiaojiao held a coffee cup in her hand, looking calmly at the scenery outside the window.
When she came to Anhe, she didn’t expect to meet Ye Tong so soon. But Feng Lei released the news about her upcoming variety show to get rid of the trending search.
Though the news would come out eventually, Feng Lei’s actions angered her.
She immediately went to the hotel where Feng Lei was staying to confront him, but she didn’t see him, only his brother Feng Yu.
She overheard Feng Yu and his assistant discussing camping with Ye Tong.
She sent her assistant to spy on Feng Yu and learn about Ye Tong’s schedule, which led her to the film base, intending to meet Ye Tong.
Since she started focusing on Ye Tong, she sent people to dig into Ye Tong’s past at the film base. She learned all about Ye Tong’s relationships there and easily found Lin Qing.
This woman Lin Qing was both stupid and malicious; just a hint that she didn’t like Ye Tong, and Lin Qing would rush to create drama, planning to use the money she’d given to teach Ye Tong a lesson.
A typical case of giving an inch and taking a mile. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
But she liked watching the show, and just wanted to see how Ye Tong dealt with Lin Qing to evaluate her as a person.
Jin Jiaojiao glanced at the disguised woman sitting not far away, a hint of a smile on her lips.
After another ten minutes, Jin Jiaojiao suddenly saw the disguised woman stand up, bag in hand, heading to the restroom.
Jin Jiaojiao didn’t pay much attention to her, only glanced a few times before looking away.
Her fingers gently stirred the coffee in her cup, but she didn’t take a sip.
This cheap coffee was really hard for her to swallow.
Suddenly, she heard the voice of a bodyguard in her ear, "Miss, that person just left the coffee shop, and she seemed very angry."
Jin Jiaojiao immediately looked outside, seeing the disguised woman storm out of the café, slapping a woman who was walking towards her.
Jin Jiaojiao immediately sat up straight, a glint of light flashed in her eyes.
That figure was Ye Tong!
She took out her phone, recording the scene outside the window.
The fight between the two women quickly attracted quite a crowd, soon blocking Jin Jiaojiao’s view.
She didn’t rush, just sat in her place waiting.
After a while, the two fighting women were pulled apart, and the onlookers gradually dispersed.
At this time, the café was almost empty, and Jin Jiaojiao clearly heard the gossip spoken by the women who entered, "No wonder her resources are so good; I didn’t expect her to actually be someone’s mistress."
"Ugh, how shameless! I didn’t expect her to be like this."
The two were talking as they walked to a table near Jin Jiaojiao, ready to order some coffee.
Jin Jiaojiao stood up, walked over to them, and smiled as she asked, "Sorry to bother you, can you tell me what just happened?"
The two were stunned for a moment, then looked at her warily and asked, "Who are you? I don’t think I’ve seen you before."
Jin Jiaojiao, a bit proud and not one to lower herself, pulled out a chair, took a business card from her assistant out of her bag, and smiled, "I’m a talent scout here to sign actors..."
Their faces immediately lit up with surprise, and when they saw Xingyu Entertainment, their eyes practically shone.
They greeted her eagerly: "Hello, hello... My name is Zhao Xin, a background actor for five years, I’ve played many roles..."
Jin Jiaojiao enjoyed the look of admiration directed at her, though she looked down a bit on these two. Interrupting their words, she said, "The two people just now were..."
"Oh, them, fighting over resources..." One of them scoffed, glancing disdainfully out the window.
"Could you describe it in more detail?"
"Well, it’s just that..." One of them hadn’t finished before the other tugged at her, signaling her with a look.
The person immediately fell silent, then looked at Jin Jiaojiao apologetically and asked, "Why are you asking?"
Jin Jiaojiao immediately understood their intent, feeling a bit of disgust, her expression cooling a bit, "The company is interested in that short-haired extra, and we need to investigate her character thoroughly to see if there’s anything harmful to the company."
The two immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then cautiously asked, "So if there are negative rumors, would you still sign her?"
Jin Jiaojiao paused, glanced at the two, and chuckled lightly, "Of course, we wouldn’t sign her then, but we will find other suitable people to sign."
The two exchanged another glance, then simultaneously looked at Jin Jiaojiao and said, "We know a lot about her..."
