This year, after graduating from university, Zhao Qingqing joined a Provincial Television Station, responsible for the post-production of the Children's Program. Her career plan was to use the platform of the Children's Program to gradually move from post-production to program planning. Once she had the opportunity to showcase her abilities, she intended to transfer to a popular entertainment program as a director.
Becoming a program director was Zhao Qingqing's first choice, but unfortunately, her academic performance was not good enough, so she had to settle for second best and prepare for her future.
Zhao Qingqing's family disapproved of her decision, believing that with her personality, trouble was inevitable. Sure enough, within three months, Zhao Qingqing found herself in big trouble.
This had little to do with professional skills or ethics; Zhao Qingqing's trouble stemmed from provoking one person—the signed actress of the television station's partner media company, the rising star Xiao Youfeng.
That afternoon was the recording time for "Awakening Era." As a loyal fan of the show, Zhao Qingqing worked hard to get into the studio and managed to sneak backstage after navigating through several twists and turns. The makeup room was large and bustling with activity yet remained orderly. Zhao Qingqing immediately spotted Xu Ziqi sitting in front of the second-to-last makeup mirror, leaning back in his chair while playing on his phone. His profile was handsome and resolute, even more attractive than on television.
Zhao Qingqing's heart fluttered with excitement. Just as she hesitated about whether to approach him for an autograph, chaos suddenly erupted in the makeup room.
At that moment, Zhao Qingqing did not recognize Xiao Youfeng; she rarely watched dramas, so all she saw was a furious beauty yelling at a young girl.
Feeling sympathetic, Zhao Qingqing thought that the head of the Children's Group had an even louder voice and was full of energy; it wasn't easy to work in this industry.
However, the beauty's anger only escalated as she hurled a delicate porcelain cup at the young girl. The girl dodged just in time, causing the cup to shatter on the ground with a loud crash. The beauty became even more enraged and began pushing and shoving. This seemed excessive to Zhao Qingqing, who couldn't help but rush over to mediate. With righteous indignation on her face, she completely failed to notice that everyone around them had fallen silent.
As Zhao Qingqing approached the beauty and was about to say, "Can't we talk this out?" it happened in an instant—Xiao Youfeng let out a scream that echoed backstage before crashing to the ground.
Zhao Qingqing couldn't help but wonder if she had inadvertently mastered some extraordinary skill.
In reality, Xiao Youfeng had simply been standing in an arrogant pose for too long and tried to switch legs to maintain her cool demeanor but ended up tripping over her own high heels. In an instant, her porcelain-like wrist was bleeding profusely.
Before being assisted to the hospital, Xiao Youfeng's face was pale as he said to his assistant, "Remember who that woman is!"
The assistant looked at Zhao Qingqing's work ID. Zhao Qingqing blocked it with her hand—this was the work ID of her colleague, Sister. She raised her chin slightly and said loudly, "My name is Zhao Qingqing. Remember it!"
Bad luck doesn't last forever; it only comes in waves.
The thrill of revenge is exhilarating, but afterward, all that remains is pain and discomfort.
During that time, "Zhao Qingqing from the Children's Group" became synonymous with misfortune. First, her probation period was indefinitely extended. Then her superiors called her in for a talk, essentially telling her to apologize to Xiao Youfeng and cooperate in turning the incident into a version where Xiao Youfeng was portrayed as a hero, making it easier for the company to rebrand him.
Zhao Qingqing opened her eyes to the reality of the situation. However, with her stubborn temperament, she agreed to apologize but refused to participate in any publicity stunt.
The team leader of the Children's Group quite liked this girl's spirit. Knowing she couldn’t keep her job, he hinted repeatedly that she should look for other opportunities. After one gathering, he candidly told Zhao Qingqing that she would definitely be laid off; it was inevitable because Xiao Youfeng had powerful connections.
Zhao Qingqing thought, let them lay me off if they want. But she would never submit or resign; she would stay as long as possible. This was her dream. She couldn't fight against the big shots, but at least she could hold on for a while longer. So she walked with her head held high and dedicated herself to her work.
Who said that when misfortune reaches a certain point, it will bounce back? Everyone felt that Zhao Qingqing's luck was beginning to rebound—and in an astonishing way.
First came Xu Ziqi's pursuit. Every morning, a bouquet of fiery red roses arrived punctually at Zhao Qingqing's desk, accompanied by a card written in elegant script by the handsome host who had taken the province by storm: Good morning, have a great day.
This gesture shocked many at the television station because countless women had fallen for Xu Ziqi's charms—from management to the tea ladies—yet no one had ever seen him show such affection before. Just when everyone speculated about his sexual orientation, he pulled this stunt, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
Next came the aftermath of the Xiao Youfeng incident. Zhao Qingqing’s probation period ended early, and the publicity stunt was quietly dropped; even the apology was no longer mentioned.
Some say this is thanks to the Metropolitan Newspaper's sensational reporting after Xiao Youfeng's injury. The reports, which strayed far from the truth, caught the attention of the CEO of a well-known domestic website. The CEO, with an unconventional vision, believed that Xiao Youfeng's fierce and striking image perfectly matched the website's ethos. Thus, she was invited to be the spokesperson for the website's television promotion.
Xiao Youfeng turned her misfortune into a blessing and naturally decided to let the matter rest without further inquiry.
To outsiders, either of these events seemed like an incredible stroke of luck, but for Zhao Qingqing, the person involved, it was a source of great distress.
Knowing the situation, Sister took some time to climb the mountain and obtain a protective amulet for her. She said to Zhao Qingqing, "Don't be afraid." Overwhelmed with gratitude, Zhao Qingqing accepted the amulet but was left speechless by Sister's next words.
Sister said, "Don't worry; at worst, you'll just lose a head and a life."
