Chapter 259 The System's Identity is Exposed!
Although Su Qi destroyed her own sea of memories, she managed to piece together some of the truth temporarily due to the time rewind.
Firstly, she had previously awakened a top-tier superpower, which was unrelated to her current upgrade; it was something that originally belonged to her.
Secondly, Chen Ziqian once learned through astrology that she would encounter a calamity, and it was at that time that she began to plan how to save herself.
"If I die for any reason, System Feifei will automatically activate and take me to a safe place..."
Chen Ziqian repeatedly exclaimed, "This idea is brilliant! But Your Majesty, if it takes you away, how will you return?"
Su Qi was taken aback: "Yes, if I said I never intended to come back..."
The timing is different now. Because of Su Xuezhao's scheming, she has fallen from grace and is now forced to live here. No matter what, she must take revenge.
She wanted to know why her beloved younger sister, whom she had cherished for so many years, had personally taken her to court.
A noise came from outside the studio: "Oh no, who's come in?"
"I'll go take a look." Lin Yuhuan went out and saw Lynn leading her team to catch the thief.
"Your Majesty need not worry, it's just that your former companions have started causing trouble."
Su Qi sensed something was wrong and quickly went outside.
Meanwhile, Lu Yumeng, who escaped from Su Qi's studio, got insider information.
"Chairman Cui, Su Qi has been acting strangely lately. Let me show you the video..."
“Great stuff, great stuff! I was just worried about how to explain this to Mr. Zheng. You send it to Mr. Zheng first, and then... how long can she be so smug?”
Su Qi's sixth sense told her that her secret had been exposed.
Su Qi looked at the three generals beside him: "From now on, you will not need to wear such military uniforms into battle. Lynn, please prepare clothing that conforms to the local customs for the three ministers."
"okay."
"I have a news interview later, is that right?"
"Yes." Lynn clenched her fists, feeling somewhat uncomfortable sitting next to her.
"Now is not the time to reveal my identity. I want to reach the top and then I will tell them that I am the master of this world."
Her lips curled up, her expression both fierce and nonchalant.
Shen Chaohuai also rushed to the interview site. Tonight is her exclusive interview, which will be followed by global media.
"What clothes will Your Majesty wear?" Zhao Yan asked.
"Of course, it's the military uniform I wore to the event." Su Qi suddenly realized that the military uniform she mentioned wasn't there.
She glanced at Zhao Yan's clothes: "Can I borrow your military uniform?"
"Me? No, no, Your Majesty, how can someone of your status wear my clothes?"
Su Qi got to wear Zhao Yan's clothes as she wished; Zhao Yan was wearing the casual clothes that Lynn had prepared for the three of them.
Although the three were ministers, they were also Su Qi's attendants, so there was nothing wrong with them attending the event.
However, Su Qi was followed by a group of people, and everyone was stunned when the media's cameras shone on him.
[1L: I heard she recently opened her own studio. Are the people in the back her new staff?]
[2L: Seriously? These people are more than qualified to be celebrities, yet they're willing to work for Su Qi.]
She sat gracefully in front of the camera, dressed in military uniform, with her hands clasped behind her back, legs crossed, and a pistol tucked into her waistband.
[3L: So handsome!]
[4L: Why does he look even more handsome than before?]
Su Qi picked up the microphone casually, his face almost expressionless.
"Ms. Su, do you have any new dramas coming up? Could you please tell us?" the reporter asked.
She casually turned to look at the reporter, who felt a chill run down his spine.
“Of course there’s a new drama, and it’s a big production…” Su Qi played with the ruby ring on her hand.
Everyone noticed that the gemstone ring was as big as a pigeon's egg.
[5L: Oh my god, rubies, they must be very expensive!]
[6L: My sister's really standing up for herself now; money really makes a difference!]
This is a ring that Chen Ziqian brought along; it was the ring she used to wear in the Empire, a symbol of her queen status.
Standing outside the venue, Shen Chaohuai saw thousands of stars gathering around her, and a rare feeling of loss welled up in her heart.
He knew that restoring her memories would only push them further apart, but more than anything, he wanted her to be happy and live a good life.
"Excuse me...excuse me..."
A person came in from outside the venue.
Su Qi prepared to get up and habitually reached out her hand, but Zhao Yan quickly stepped forward to catch her.
[1L: Su Qi, something feels off about you.]
[2L: Do her staff also need to observe such etiquette?]
[3L: Kneeling on one knee, so meticulous?]
"It's Chairman Cui from Tianhai."
Cui Ying's appearance at her exclusive interview was somewhat of a disappointment.
"What are you doing here?" Su Qi squinted.
"Of course I'm here to expose your true colors."
Su Qi smiled first, then looked at the media and said, "Everyone, take a good look. This is the big show I just mentioned, the one I've prepared for you all this year."
“I wasn’t playing along with your act,” Cui Ying said, pulling out a tablet and showing everyone a video of Su Qi acting like a queen in the studio. “So, you terminated your contract with me just to start your own business and act like a diva?”
[4L: I knew something was off. Su Qi is clearly getting cocky, acting like he's some kind of emperor.]
[5L: In this century, there are no special privileges. Isn't Su Qi just shooting himself in the foot?]
[6L: She hadn't been popular for long, and now another celebrity is about to have a scandal? Female celebrities are having scandals way too frequent!]
She calmly walked off the stage. Facing Cui Ying's relentless pressure and the video footage, she simply smiled and placed her hand on Zhao Yan's: "This is who I am. Don't like it? Let's have a fight. If we win, this position will be yours."
Lin Yuhuan and Chen Ziqian were both startled: "Your Majesty, you mustn't!"
All eyes in the room turned to her.
[7L: Seriously? They're calling him Your Majesty?]
[8L: It's probably just acting.]
"Didn't Su Qi say this was just a performance for everyone?"
"Oh, I get it. Preview! It's a good show arranged by the former chairman of the agency, and it'll also bring some traffic to the former company."
[9L: Oh my god, Su Qi is so great!]
[10L: Even after terminating their contract, they still think of their former company! Which artist would go to such lengths?!]
Knowing they might let something slip, Su Qi smiled slightly: "Cui Ying, you used to make things difficult for me at Tianhai and even made me sign an exorbitant termination fee. Do you know your crime?"
Cui Ying didn't understand why Su Qi was speaking like this, and was a little scared: "I..."
Cui Yingcai realized she had fallen into Su Qi's trap: "Everyone, everyone, look at the video! It's all real..."
"Alright, Chairman Cui, we all know you're filming a trailer for your new movie. What an interesting way to present this interview! Everyone, quickly say thank you to Chairman Cui and Su Qi!" The reporters cheered and clapped.
The entire audience cheered. Cui Ying's lips twitched, and she hurriedly ran out to make a frantic phone call.
As the interview was about to end, Su Qi stood up and gestured with her eyes. Chen Ziqian immediately understood and quickly took out the last cigarette to light it for her.
[1L: What kind of cigarettes haven't I seen before?]
[2L: Someone at the scene said it smelled like vanilla...]
[3L: Great! They sell the same item on Xiaohongshu!]
[4L: They released the same style so quickly?]
Su Qi returned to the studio, followed by a large group of people, a procession so grand it resembled a queen's entourage, as if she were going on a parade.
"Your Majesty... this can only solve the problem temporarily."
"I know...didn't you pay an exorbitant termination fee when you terminated the contract last time? Show me the evidence."
The group exchanged glances: "Your Majesty, we are sorry...we were not present regarding the matter you mentioned."
