The black buzz cut belonged to Liu Yiyang, the son of the wealthy tycoon from Xiang Province who had suddenly passed away without leaving a will. Jasmine had helped his family settle inheritance disputes, and ever since then, they had connected on WeChat. Every time Jasmine posts on her moments, he never fails to like and leave a supportive comment.

Liu Yiyang must have heard from ben about her appearance on the variety show, so after inquiring about the location, here he was!

He had messaged last night, saying he was also in the city and asked if they could meet after the recording of the show?

Firstly, it had been a while since they last met, and he wanted to invite Jasmine for a meal.

Secondly, there was a family matter he needed her help with.

The relative Liu Yiyang referred to was his aunt, Liu Meifang. After marrying, Liu Meifang and her husband had been doing business everywhere. Jasmine came over to record a variety show, and this city is her husband Wen Hua's hometown.The reason they needed help was that the Wen's Family, specifically Wen Ping, Wen Hua's younger brother.

Last night, Jasmine had agreed to meet him after the show, so she had provided Liu Yiyang with the name of the village for convenience.

Guess what?

Early in the morning, after getting up, washing up, drinking the thick rice porridge with flowers, and checking her phone, OMG! Jasmine was surprised to see a message from Liu Yiyang saying he was on his way!

Liu Yiyang: "[Sis, I'm driving over there to wait. After the show, I'll pick you up. Let's welcome you properly first.]"

Jasmine: "[You guys?]"

Liu Yiyang: "[Me, my aunt's younger brother, and his friend, four of us.]"

Jasmine: "[...No need to make it so grand.]"

Liu Yiyang: "[It's necessary, I specifically picked good-looking ones to support you!]"

Jasmine thought to herself that Sis I wasn't that vain, but since they were already on their way, two luxury off-road vehicles drove out from the city, passing through the county town and arriving at the small village where the show was being recorded.

They had been waiting for a couple of hours, and just as Liu Yiyang's naive cousin took out a telescope from the off-road vehicle and started peeking around the village, he suddenly got excited: "Okay, let's get in the car, we'll drive in."

"What did you see?"

"They're done filming and getting into the car."

Then the four of them drove the two cars over, with Liu Yiyang rolling down the car window and waving at the production team's business car to pick up someone. Not satisfied with just waving, he opened the car door and jumped out.

Jasmine grabbed her small suitcase and got off the car, while the other stars also got out, watching as the cool and expensive-looking young boys came out of the cars—

His clothes, shoes, hats, and even the watches they wore were all expensive; the watch on the wrist of the one helping Jasmine with her luggage cost several hundred thousand.

"Jasmine, who are these people? Can you introduce them?"

Jasmine herself didn't recognize all four of these youngsters, so she think and said, "Just friends."

Liu Yiyang: ...

"You got me there, sis."

Jasmine ignored the joke, turned around, waved to the director and team, "Thanks for the past two days, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

Jasmine, Liu Yiyang, and his cousin Wen Hang got into one car, while the two boys got into another car. They turned around and quickly left the production team behind.

After the group of five left, one of the staff members said, "I've seen the one helping Jasmine with her luggage in the news before, he left an impression, he is Liu Tiancheng's son, who is the mos wealthy tycoon from Xiang Province."

"When you say that, it reminds me of him! When Liu Tiancheng died suddenly, his family had a fierce dispute over the inheritance, but then suddenly they said it was resolved peacefully. It was quite strange that those who had a big fight at that time still contact now."

"I didn't expect him to be friends with Jasmine..."

"Those three are also part of their circle, right? They all have a similar aura."

"Why isn't there any paparazzi digging into their backgrounds? I'm really curious about Jasmine's background."

The men turned to look at the female artist who stayed at the same place as Jasmine last night: "Did you guys chat last night?"

"We were so tired yesterday, we just fell asleep as soon as we lay down, what's there to talk about?"

Entering the entertainment industry with a script like 'All the rich young boys are my friends,' to be honest, I don't quite understand. What's even more confusing is that she seems so different from the rural countryside, but yesterday she managed to upset all the old farmers in the village, making the village chief suspect if he brought a group of amateurs...

A few of them who recorded the show together also posted on Facebook on their way back.

Ji Chun v:

"Met a very popular young actor while recording the show, suddenly understood one thing: all the fame and success must have a reason."

Shen Xingyu v:

"Indeed, there are still many shortcomings, learning from my sister Jasmine."

Jiang Yuan v:

"Overheard a phrase a lot in the village these past two days --

 'The talent reserve in the entertainment industry is too comprehensive.'"

Song Tang v:

"Shocked my whole family, whoever misses this episode will regret it."

...

Various fans: ???

-- Looking at the schedule, younger brother went to record the challenge in that village. He said learning from my sister is definitely not referring to the regular guest Tang Shanshan, it must be the guest who flew in.

-- Female, a very popular young actress recently, just look for her in the hit dramas recently.'

--Do we even need to mention the recent hit dramas? Everyone knows who caused a stir in that drama, right?

--It's Jasmine?!!!!

--Which episode? Which day did it air? Let me see!

-- What did lovely Jasmine do to surprise Tang?

Song Tang glanced at this fan's username and replied: "It's something you won't be able to call her "lovely Jasmine" after watching it." ᕙ(`▿´)ᕗ

Once the username was revealed, the troll appeared.

-- I never called her lovely Jasmine, I always called her wife Jasmine.

Clicking on the troll's Facebook page, it turned out he was an author, with the top post being:'My new book "I Became Gu Pan's Husband" is currently hotly serialized on XX novel website, daily updates with twenty thousand brothers, come and read.

Jasmine obviously didn't see this, and even if she did, she would just reply: 'What does Gu Pan's husband have to do with me?

What is Jasmine, who several fans are discussing, doing?

She just entered the city with the handsome Four, went to a fancy restaurant for a meal, after eating well, the other two who were there for support left, leaving Liu Yiyang to discuss serious matters with his cousin Wen Hang.

Liu Yiyang said: "My aunt passed away last month from cancer, even sending her abroad couldn't save her. Our whole family was mentally prepared for this, but the problem is she has a son in kindergarten, at that time when her condition was critical, she didn't explain clearly to Jiajia, just said that mom would be gone for a long time and asked him to listen to his dad at home and be strong as a boy."

In the first half of the month, the child was fine, just kept asking about his mom.

Recently, I don't know what happened, the child suddenly changed, saying his dad doesn't want his mom, and every day he tries to run away. A few days ago, when they weren't paying attention, he ran away from home, they reported to the police and checked the surveillance cameras to find him.

Now my uncle has no way out, I heard that Sister Jasmine can make a call, so he want to trouble you."

After Wen Hang finished speaking, he noticed Jasmine was lost in thought.

He asked again: "Sister Jasmine, can you come over?"

Jasmine snapped out of it, hearing about this matter, it reminded her of her own past when she suddenly lost her mother. No matter how her grandparents tried to comfort and advise her, it was useless.

When a person is in that emotional state, they cannot listen to others telling them to relax and look ahead.

Even if everyone has good intentions, one may still feel abandoned by the closest people, causing anxiety and a sense of confusion when thinking about the future.

At the age of twelve, Jasmine had been withdrawn for a long time. It's strange for a child in kindergarten to not see their mother for a long time and not be worried.

"I can go once, but this is just a temporary solution. He will still make a fuss later on."

Wen Hang said: "Let my aunt worry about this. He doesn't really believe what others in the family say now."

"...Then let's go."

They arrived at Wen Hang's uncle's house in Liu Yiyang's car, where the grandparents, the child, and the child's father were present.

The child was playing alone in a corner with toys when he heard the sound of a car outside. He ran out excitedly but was disappointed when he saw who it was.

Wen Hang called out to him but the child ignored him, returning to the corner.

"Is Hang here? Did the expert arrive? Can she really contact to Jia Jia's mom?"

Wen Hang's grandparents, upon seeing Jasmine, "Here She Is!"

"So young?"

"Don't judge a book by its cover." 

Grandpa and Grandma quickly welcomed the guests, called for the servant to bring fruits, and also wanted to call for the child's father in the study.

Grandma went to make the call, while Grandpa mentioned that he had just taken a work call before heading upstairs.

"I heard the master was very young, but I never expected this young. He doesn't look much older than Hang."

Jasmine laughed, "Quite a lot older, I'm twenty-two, isn't Wen Hang just eighteen?"

After chatting for a bit, the old lady came down with the others, dismissed the nanny, and then Jasmine dialed the man's phone to call his deceased wife.

What followed was a tearful scene.

On the phone, the child's mother sobbed, while the adults wiped away tears, and the child, who was initially crouching in the corner, immediately ran over upon hearing his mother's voice, crying and asking when she would be coming home? 

The child's grandmother and daughter-in-law explained the situation during this period.

The heartbreak on the other end was even more intense.

"Mom told you that she had to go far away and to listen to Dad at home..."

"But in our class, Li Zitong said he hadn't seen his mom for a while, and then his dad brought a stepmother back. I don't want a stepmother!"

...

No wonder this child suddenly became disobedient; he was scared by what the other children at the kindergarten said.

His mother spoke gently and soothingly, explaining a lot, mentioning that she was chosen to be an angel and couldn't come home.

"Can't I be an angel too? I want to be with mom."

"No, you can't. If you miss mom, ask dad to have a pretty lady help you make a call, but you can't do it often. We're not allowed to contact you from above, and Jia Jia can't tell her classmates or teachers either. Promise mom to keep it a secret."

The child reluctantly agreed, but then made a request, "Can I watch a video next time? I want to see angel wings."

"No, as I said, the police uncles in heaven won't allow mom to contact you. We can only sneak phone calls; if we're caught with a video call, mom will be taken away for not following the rules of heaven."

"The police uncles in heaven are naughty..."

The phone call went on for a long time, and the child was content only after talking enough and giving the phone to his father. His father switched to speakerphone, spoke privately with his wife for a few moments, and then hung up.

So, as strange as Ben's Grandma actions were, today's contact with loved ones was more commonplace.

However, due to the relationship with Wen Jia Jia, the previous scene was quite poignant.

The child didn't realize it, but after speaking to his mother, he became happy.

He was now running around the house joyfully. Suddenly, he ran to Wen Ping, hugged his legs, and looked up, saying, "Dad, I'm sorry."

Wen Ping gently patted his son's smooth head and replied, "It's okay."

"Dad, don't tell anyone else, Mom's call is a secret."

The father and son made a secret pact, promising to keep it between them.

It was a bittersweet moment just now, suddenly turning a bit heartwarming.

"This child is so well-behaved, I'm a bit glad I made this trip."

Liu Yiyang asked if she wasn't happy originally.

"Originally, it's not about being happy or not, just helping out."

 While speaking, her own phone vibrated, Jasmine took two steps aside, unlocked it, and checked. It was a message from the underworld mobile service, which congratulating her on receiving thanks from the underworld citizen Han Li. 

Along with a red envelope. Jasmine learned from experience and immediately borrowed the restroom from the Wen family. She washed her hands three times before opening the gift, only to find it less rewarding than last time.

"Congratulations, you have received a piece of safety jade."

Safety jade, a jade ornament with a certain protective effect, she had encountered similar items before.

After coming out of the restroom, Jasmine handed the white jade pendant the size of an adult thumb she had just received to the child's grandmother, saying, "This is for safety, let the child wear it."

Never did she expect to be asked to take something when helping out. If it had been given by someone else, she might not have taken it seriously, but as it was a precious gift from the master her daughter-in-law contacted, how could she refuse?

The old lady hurriedly accepted, suddenly remembering something and asked Jasmine to wait. She quickly went upstairs and soon came down with a stack of property deeds, saying, "Here, take a look, which set do you like? We will transfer it later."

...

Jasmine was no stranger to people giving away homes at the drop of a hat. She declined, saying, "I can't live in so many houses by myself."

"What about a car? What kind of car do you like?"

"I already have a car, too many to park."

"I'll give you the car and the garage."

"No need, really."

Mrs. Wen insisted, "It wouldn't be right for us to invite you to help, give you a safety jade, and let you leave empty-handed, would it? That doesn't make sense."

Beside them, Wen Hang felt sorry that his grandmother couldn't give the gift away, so he suggested, "I think Sister Jasmine just can't bear to see us spend money, why not take a few sets of products from Uncle's company. This way, you won't have to pay, and Sister Jasmine is always willing to accept, right?"

Jasmine felt something was off but couldn't quite put her finger on it.

However, Wen Hang's suggestion seemed reasonable, so she nodded.

The old lady was satisfied and told her son not to dawdle but to have a few sets of products sent over from the company.

Half an hour later, Wen Ping's assistant arrived with a group of people, carrying stacks of exquisite boxes. These boxes were placed on the table in the Wen family's living room, and after they were arranged, Jasmine could see the logo printed on the boxes.

Gosh! Wen Ping owned a jewelry company, and the products brought over were especially rich, including platinum, gold, jade inlays, and sets with diamonds.

Even celebrities on the red carpet couldn't borrow such a variety. Jasmine suspected he had brought over some of the best sets from his own company.

Jasmine wanted to decline most of them, citing inconvenience as a reason, but planned to pick a few to accept, yet Mrs. Wen insisted that someone would deliver them to her doorstep.

Mrs. Wen only found out that Jasmine had been bored and ventured into the entertainment circle, so she told her that in the future, if she needed jewelry for events, she could come to them and choose whatever she liked.

...

...

When Jasmine came to record a variety show, she only brought a few pieces of luggage, but returned with a full load. She neatly arranged the complete set of jewelry in the accessory room and was about to go get changed for a bath when her agent, SisterChen, messaged her on WeChat.

She unlocked her phone and saw——

[Screenshot] [Screenshot] [Screenshot] [Screenshot]...

The latest message was four words: "You've been caught."

Jasmine enlarged the images sent to her, which were entertainment news alerts from an app.

"Love affair exposed, Jasmine bids farewell at the airport with rumored boyfriend, eyes filled with reluctance."

"Ben acts as a shield, is Jasmine's boyfriend really him?!"

"Jasmine seen being affectionate with unidentified man at the airport, fans find it hard to accept."

Sister Chen sent all the pictures to her, then took angles to sneakily take pictures and talk. Jasmine was just wondering why she was so famous? Even catching a plane could get her photographed.

Sister Chen reminded her artist to wake up and not be so self-absorbed. Paparazzi were just there for someone else and happened to catch her.

Jasmine: [You are so cruel, you hurt me.]

Sister Chen: [Stop messing around, I'm here to ask if you should also be just a normal friend, right?]

Jasmine: [Yeah, should I explain on Facebook to ease my fans' minds?]

Sister Chen: [No need, your fans are very understanding.]

Sister Chen: [I took another look, congratulations, the fake news is debunked].

...???

The fastest source of news is never the entertainment section of a news app. To see the latest updates, one has to climb onto Facebook, and that's what Jasmine did.

She climbed over and checked her rich second-generation friend's circle, where everyone appeared, not only exposing Liu Yiyang who drove her to the airport but also publicly stating, "He's not as good as me."

Fans were confused about this behavior, and as the entertainment sites refreshed, the latest push was:-- 

"Top rich second generations jealous, arguing on a female star's Facebook"

 "Jasmine -- a woman loved by rich kids".
