I'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.

Jiang Yunyao voiced her speculation, “Is it possible that the tasks aren’t fixed, but rather assigned by the people there based on our situation?”

What if two female guests chose the mall? Surely the production team wouldn’t make them haul cargo, right?

Lu Mucheng nodded in agreement. “That’s a possibility.”

Upon hearing that the mall might assign heavy labor, Xie Yixing immediately said, “Jiang Yunyao, you go to the jewelry store, I’ll take the mall!”

Lu Mucheng looked at Lin Wanwan and gently advised, “You and Jiang Yunyao go to the jewelry store. Xie Yixing and I will handle the mall. If you encounter any trouble, speak up. Don’t carry it all alone.”

Lin Wanwan’s eyes curved slightly as she replied sweetly, “Got it.”

[So into this! The Wan City couple is too perfect!]

[Ahhh, who else feels it? When the movie emperor speaks to Wanwan, the tenderness in his eyes nearly overflows!]

[The movie emperor is only patient and gentle when it’s Wanwan; Wanwan only shows her little-girl side with him! Honestly, those shipping the Wan City couple are blessed!]

[Did you notice little Xie? He’s quite responsible, volunteering to go to the mall.]

[Why is it all about the Wan City couple? What about Ah Jie? Step up!]

[Ah, when little Xie heard the task, the first thought was Ah Yao. He has feelings for her! The ship I’m sailing is real!]

[Haha, I’m dying laughing. Ah Jie is fighting against a thousand enemies on her own!]

After their plan was set, the four split into two groups.

As Lu Mucheng and Jiang Yunyao had guessed, the jewelry store’s task was to promote jewelry, while the mall staff held two task cards. Upon seeing Lu Mucheng and Xie Yixing, they handed them the one labeled “Loading and unloading goods.”

Viewers in the live stream marveled at how clever Lu Mucheng and Jiang Yunyao were.

Jiang Yunyao and Lin Wanwan arrived at the jewelry store, where only the store manager was present. After assigning them the sales task, the manager left.

The two changed into sleek black suits typical of salespeople and pinned “Salesperson” badges to their chests, officially on duty.

It was still early, and the street was sparse with people; the jewelry store felt somewhat quiet.

Jiang Yunyao sat behind the counter, staring at a necklace inside the display, bored as she counted the diamonds on it.

Lin Wanwan flipped through a jewelry catalog beside her, silently memorizing the prices corresponding to each piece.

After some time, voices of girls could be heard outside.

“Yao Yao, I’m going to buy a coffee. You wander nearby; I’ll be right back.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yunyao recognized the voices and looked up toward the door.

At that moment, the long-silent System 007 suddenly spoke.

{Character detected in novel. Friendly reminder: Host can activate identity scanner for confirmation.}

Thinking she had unlocked a new feature, Jiang Yunyao immediately activated the scanner.

Outside stood a girl wearing a pale cyan dress, her long golden hair cascading behind her, her expression haughty.

Above her head appeared bold black letters:

{“Beloved by Thousands: The Scheming Movie Emperor’s Lucky Wife” — Bystander: Ji Shuyao}

Jiang Yunyao blinked in confusion.

What’s the difference between a “bystander” and a “bystander A”? Is it just the name?

Sensing Jiang Yunyao’s inner grumble, the system explained, {Minor characters with limited plot involvement are classified as “bystanders.”}

Jiang Yunyao clicked on the line of text but, unlike the new user pack, no related plot appeared.

System prompt: {Plot not unlocked, unable to view.}

Jiang Yunyao sighed inwardly.

She strongly suspected the system itself didn’t know the plot and was just brushing her off.

As Jiang Yunyao looked at Ji Shuyao, Ji Shuyao also noticed her.

With the proud stride of a young lady, Ji Shuyao pushed open the door and strode quickly up to Jiang Yunyao.

“Jiang Yunyao, so it really is you! It’s been years. I suppose you’ve married Senior Wei and have kids by now?”

Her tone carried a hint of bitterness, instantly transporting Jiang Yunyao back to their high school days.

The live chat exploded with excitement.

[Whoa, everyone gather ‘round! There’s gossip!]

[That sour tone! This girl definitely likes the “Senior Wei” she mentioned!]

[Does Senior Wei like Jiang Yunyao?]

[OMG! A love triangle!]

[They say rivals’ meetings are full of jealousy. Fight! Fight!]

The Senior Wei Ji Shuyao mentioned was a year older and had once pursued Jiang Yunyao. Ji Shuyao herself was fond of him.

Jiang Yunyao couldn’t help but grimace. “Where did you get that pirated news?”

In their sophomore year, she had rejected Wei Jingyang no less than three times!

Don’t ask why she remembered his name—because after being rejected, he had come to her dorm holding a candle and roses to confess!

Back then, the scene was packed with people! The majority were just heckling!

The result was that she and Wei Jingyang were caught by the head teacher and forced to write three thousand words of self-criticism overnight! She even lost that year’s scholarship!

The top scholarship spot, originally hers, ended up going to the grade’s second place!

That year, she half-jokingly suspected Wei Jingyang was an undercover agent sent by the runner-up faction to mess with her!

Ji Shuyao, hearing this, realized the two never got together and breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, she didn’t even know why she had subconsciously assumed they were together.

Seeing Ji Shuyao’s expression, Jiang Yunyao looked incredulous. “You still like him?”

Really, girl, with a family fortune like yours, you could have any man you want. Why hang yourself on this one tree?

Ji Shuyao blushed at the accusation.

She stubbornly replied, “I’ve long forgotten him! I only remembered because of you!”

Jiang Yunyao was speechless.

That didn’t look like forgetting to her.

The live viewers agreed.

[Girl, just admit it!]

[This tsundere girl is adorable!]

[@HappinessSignalOfficial, can you invite her? I want to see her love-hate with Jiang Yunyao!]

[Anyone else think this girl obviously isn’t short on money? Why would she be on a reality show?]

[Jiang Liangliang’s fans, stop fawning! She barely knows Jiang Liangliang; why would she come on a show because of her?]

Before the trolls could finish, Ji Shuyao spoke again in the live stream.

“Jiang Yunyao, you’re the salesperson here, right?” She pointed to a diamond necklace. “Wrap this necklace for me.”

It was the very necklace Jiang Yunyao had been counting diamonds on—its value and appearance paled in comparison to the yellow sapphire necklace around Ji Shuyao’s neck.

It hardly looked like something a young lady of her status would buy.

A bold thought flashed through Jiang Yunyao’s mind. “You’re not trying to help me boost sales, are you?”

Miss Heiress, don’t be delusional! With that kind of money, you could buy her dinner ten times over!
