So I'm the Villainess- Screw the Plot, Let's All Go Down Together! - Chapter 2

Shen Zhi knew better than anyone how terrifying public opinion could be.

As soon as she heard the noise outside the door, Shen Zhi decided to escape through the window; otherwise, she would be the one unable to defend herself against the accusations.

Luckily, the second floor of this small villa wasn’t particularly high.

After climbing out of the window, she used the protruding pipes on the outer wall for support and managed to jump down without getting hurt.

It was just that, in the urgency of the moment, she hadn’t noticed she was wearing sandals with a slight heel.

Jumping from such a height, she ended up twisting her ankle a bit.

Shen Zhi didn’t mind much.

She casually moved around to confirm this was a blind spot for cameras and that no one was nearby.

Then, she calmly walked toward the direction where the staff were located.

However, what she didn’t know was that her leap from the second-floor window had been completely captured by someone else’s eyes.

…

Not far away, inside a nanny van.

“Oh my God, did I see that right? She just jumped down from the second floor like it was nothing! Is this really a dating reality show? Anyone who didn’t know better would think they were on an action movie set!”

The speaker was a young man who looked just over twenty.

His delicate face, due to his current dumbfounded expression, appeared somewhat naive.

Recalling the scene, he was clearly still a bit shaken.

After a long pause, he finally blurted out, “Is she even human? She’s like Spider-Man!”

Due to the distance, Xiao Wu squinted for quite a while before he could barely recognize the person, his shock even greater than before.

“No way, huh? How could it be her?”

Only when the tall and slender figure disappeared from view did the man lazily sitting next to Xiao Wu retract his gaze.

He glanced at him, “What, you know her?”

“Shen Zhi! It’s that Shen Zhi!”

Seeing his boss raise an eyebrow with a “Who the hell are you talking about?” expression, the assistant looked exasperated.

“My dude, don’t you go online? Shen Zhi! The one who’s been chasing Fu Zhihan for years, that love-struck Shen Zhi!”

Xiao Wu was animatedly recounting Shen Zhi’s various illustrious deeds in pursuing Fu Zhihan.

He naturally didn’t notice that a figure had suddenly appeared at the previously empty second-floor window.

It was Fu Zhihan.

His face looked displeased as he glanced down, then adjusted his expression before turning away.

“Tsk.”

The man played idly with his phone, his long, slender fingers as fair as the finest artwork.

Recalling how Shen Zhi had decisively leaped from the second-floor window.

A hint of amusement flashed across his handsome face.

“This dating reality show seems more interesting than I imagined…”

…

The group left the storage room and returned to the first floor of the small villa to gather.

Everyone looked around and suddenly realized someone was missing, prompting the same question-

“Wait, where did Shen Zhi go?”

Today was the first official recording day of the dating reality show “Summer Heartbeat,” and under the production team’s arrangement, everyone had arrived at the Heartbeat House.

At this moment, all the guests were present, but Shen Zhi was nowhere to be found.

The guests present naturally knew of Shen Zhi; after all, with her relentless pursuit, almost no one in the entertainment industry was unaware.

Upon hearing her name, they instinctively glanced in Fu Zhihan’s direction.

Noticing the overt and covert glances from everyone, Fu Zhihan’s expression remained unchanged, though his heart was not as calm as his exterior.

Meanwhile, in the Live stream room.

Upon hearing Shen Zhi’s name, the screen was instantly filled with mocking and sarcastic comments.

[Haha, I really don’t get it. Is there no one left in the industry? How can someone like Shen Zhi be on a dating reality show? Why?]

[It’s hilarious, the guests are idols, actors, models, and whatnot. But her? Two years after debut, she’s still a nobody.]

[Seeing Emperor Fu and Jiang Muxue dating, she must’ve been triggered! Shamelessly clinging to get in! Ugh, it’s really nauseating.]

[Seriously, how does she have the nerve to come? Guests should at least have talent or looks, right? What does she have besides thick skin?]

[Say no more, her appearance this morning already shocked me enough. Is she really a star? I need to look at Baby Xue to cleanse my eyes!]

[Laughable, Shen Zhi’s heavy makeup monster, probably even worse without makeup!]

Seeing that Shen Zhi hadn’t appeared yet, even the director frowned with dissatisfaction.

“What’s going on? Where’s Shen Zhi?”

Just as the staff were about to speak-

“Sorry, I just went to the restroom, I’m late.”

The newcomer’s voice was clear and clean, and everyone instinctively looked toward the source of the voice. Upon seeing the approaching figure, they couldn’t help but be stunned.

Even the staff exchanged puzzled glances.

Wait, when did the director find another new guest, and why so suddenly, without informing them?

The scene remained silent for a full ten seconds before Su Keke, an idol from a girl group, saw through the appearance to the essence and was the first to react.

With wide eyes, she incredulously said, “Is… Sister Shen Zhi?”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone snapped out of their daze, looking at Shen Zhi as if they’d seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Fu Zhihan stared at the figure approaching closer, momentarily lost in thought.

Meanwhile, the live stream room, which had been bustling with comments, fell into a brief silence before someone suddenly shouted-

“Damn it! If anyone says Shen Zhi isn’t good-looking, I’m going to lose it!”

“Is this a star? She’s clearly a fairy! A goddess! She’s my wife whom I’ve never met, ahhhhh!!!!”
