chapter 56 A Drop of Oil for the Rich, Half a Year's Food for the Poor

"This is really a drop of oil for the rich, half a year's rations for the poor~~"

Ji Xiaoli snapped back to her senses and continued to watch this marketing account of "The No.1 Spiritualist" go on.

"But then again, you might say, well, she's a rich second - generation, so she can do whatever she wants with her money! It's just a piece of cake for her to spend money. What right do you, a nobody, have to butt in? Yes, I don't have the right to be jealous, but isn't there something suspicious here?"

"Where did Ji Xiaoli get so much money to maintain her luxurious lifestyle??"

"Let's break it down one by one. Just the amount she spends on keeping Zheng Nanfeng for a week, I'm sure you all have an idea. And think back, she also kept the young hunk Zhong Canxi before. The cost... Well, you can figure it out for yourselves."

"Let's look at her other expenses. She invested 60 million in her own drama. Then she invested in the drama 'I'm Back from My Trials' - come on, folks, this drama is a total flop! But Ms. Ji invested tens of millions. She really doesn't treat money as money~~"

This remark was so full of sourness that it seemed to seep out of the screen.

By now, Ji Xiaoli had understood why the hashtag #Ji Xiaoli's Money# was trending. It was because these people couldn't stand her luxurious lifestyle and were now attacking where her money came from.

"Friends, it's really not me being jealous. Just think about it. Even if she's rich, she's just a rich second - generation. Can she be richer than her parents? But look at how her parents live."

"Her father, Mr. Ji Changmin, is still working in the oil - drilling business. He was supposed to have a chance to return to China, but due to some engineering issues, he's still stuck there. And look at her mother, Ms. Wei Yanlan. She's on a trip in Hawaii, but even when traveling, she doesn't spend money and invest randomly like her daughter!"

After reading this paragraph, Ji Xiaoli narrowed her eyes, and her aura was like that of an angry cat with its fur all puffed up.

If she had just regarded "The No.1 Spiritualist"'s analysis as a joke before, now that he had dug into Wei Yanlan and her husband, the fire in Ji Xiaoli's chest was burning fiercely.

If you want to deal with me, just say so! What's the point of digging into my parents? What did their oil - drilling and traveling do to you?!

"Sister Chun!" Ji Xiaoli angrily called Sister Chun, "Quick, help me dig into the background of this 'The No.1 Spiritualist'!"

"Sure thing!"

After hanging up the phone, Ji Xiaoli was still fuming.

She scrolled through the comments below and was almost blinded by the overwhelming sourness.

[Holy cow! She spends on one meal what it would cost me to buy an apartment!]

[So where did she get all this money? Besides the living expenses from her mom, didn't she just win a 60 - million lottery? Is that enough for her to squander until now?]

[That 60 million is nothing! It's not even enough for her investment in 'A Life of Cheats'!]

[Hurry up! Is there any professional who can check her accounts? Does she have any illegal income?]

...

As Ji Xiaoli scrolled through these comments, her face darkened.

She was thinking whether she should just keep silent or post a Weibo to fight back against these people. Just as she was confused, she found that her fan group was in an uproar...

[Damn the marketing accounts! Everyone, go and control the comments quickly!]

[Come on, post according to my script. First, Xiaoli's money is her private property. Neither fans nor passers - by have the right to question it. Second, how Xiaoli spends her money is her own business. Finally, Xiaoli herself is excellent enough, and her family is really well - off. No matter how good a life she has, she deserves it.]

[Hurry up! Go to 'The No.1 Spiritualist' first to control the comments. Don't worry about other places for now!]

Controlling the comments...

Ji Xiaoli's face darkened.

Is it really necessary, fans?

This move also obviously dissatisfied some fans. Someone came out and shouted: [Why don't you think about the possibility that Ji Xiaoli really has illegal income?]

[Yeah, with the way she spends, even ten Ji families would be ruined by her! I don't think Ji Changmin, no matter how rich he is, would let her spend like this. Aren't you really curious about her source of income?]

[I'm also 22 years old, but I can't even find a job. My senior only gets 2000 yuan a month during her internship...]

The fan group instantly erupted into an argument.

The group administrator Zhizhi immediately popped up: [If you don't like her, you can question her with reasonable evidence instead of slandering her casually. Also, don't slander her in the group.]

After saying that, Ji Xiaoli saw several fans being kicked out of the fan group.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and couldn't help but say: [Actually, there's no need to control the comments.]

[You have been removed from Ji Xiaoli's fan group by the administrator Zhizhi!]

Ji Xiaoli:???

What the hell?

Ji Xiaoli was seriously doubting her life.

And just as she was doubting her life, she witnessed another shocking thing - Zheng Nanfeng actually reposted the Weibo of "The No.1 Spiritualist".

Zheng Nanfeng: You'd better change your name from 'The No.1 Spiritualist' to 'The No.1 Rumormonger'.

As soon as he reposted it, the comment section exploded:

[Brother Zheng is so cool defending his wife! Awesome!]

[Wow, is he defending his sugar mommy? How professional!]

...

Sugar mommy Ji Xiaoli: ... He is really professional. He's still speaking up for her even after being unemployed.

The whole afternoon, the public opinion began to ferment wildly.

Ji Xiaoli was out of patience and too lazy to care about it anymore. All she wanted now was for Sister Chun to quickly dig out the background of this "The No.1 Spiritualist", and then...

Let him taste the consequences of daring to dig into Wei Yanlan and her husband!

Just as she was thinking, a message came in. It was from Pan Damin -

Pan Damin: Are you free? Come to the Summer Vacation Hotel. I have something to ask you.

Ji Xiaoli's eyelids twitched violently.

This "something" must be about the current situation, right? Come to think of it, there had indeed been a lot of news about their crew because of her...

Some were good, some were bad. She wondered what Pan Damin would ultimately think.

Ji Xiaoli bit her lip and finally replied: I'll come right away.

She picked up her coat and was about to go out when another message from Zheng Nanfeng came in -

Zheng Nanfeng: You've already acquired Canxing Entertainment?

Huh?? How did he know?

Did he go and check?

But it didn't really matter, right? She had kept this acquisition very low - key. It was normal for many people not to know about it if they didn't check. And even if they knew, it probably wouldn't affect much. At most, it would just add another item to the list of her wasteful spending.

Just as she was about to admit it, another message from Zheng Nanfeng came in -

Zheng Nanfeng: So, the news about you keeping me last time was also released by you?

The hand that Ji Xiaoli had just placed on the keyboard instantly froze.

... Would he believe it if she said it was Sister Chun and the other two who had released the news on their own initiative?

Five minutes later, another message from Zheng Nanfeng came in. But this time, after just one glance, Ji Xiaoli started roaring inside. She threw her phone, stepped on the accelerator, and drove straight to the Summer Vacation Hotel.

The message Mr. Zheng had just sent was: You really want to keep me that much?
