[Shi Jin probably didn’t expose Deng Yufei so as not to put her in the limelight. If she exposed her at that time, it would only serve to create more hype for Deng Yufei!]
[Now that I think about it, Deng Yufei had planned this all along! She even deliberately walked into Shi Jin to make her mask fall off! She must have already known about Shi Jin’s scar.]
[You are absolutely right! Even though she claimed to be best friends with Shi Jin, she was using her!]
[Deng Yufei, get out of the entertainment industry! There is no place in the industry for someone like you!]
Deng Yufei wanted to use the last episode of the program to gain standing in the entertainment industry using her good looks. She simply wanted to get more television appearances, commercial performances and use her old songs. Even if she could not reach the same heights as Shi Jin, she could at least make a living, but her dreams were completely crushed in an instant.
Mr Wang had just spoken to some small brands and got her some work, but they were all dashed.
She was invited to sing the ending theme song for a television drama, but they sent her a termination letter right away. After all, no one wanted to collaborate with someone like Deng Yufei at a time like this and damage their reputation.

Although Yao Jiahong knew Shi Jin was an incredible talent, he realized he had underestimated Shi Jin the moment he read the list of songs that Deng Yufei had stolen.
Initially, he felt Deng Yufei must have some talent as a composer, and it was just a moment’s folly to plagiarize Xia Peifeng’s work. However, from the looks of it now, all of Deng Yufei’s best songs were written by Shi Jin.
Even though Deng Yufei had written a couple of original works during the program, they gave her the worst results and were the least well-known.
“Can you talk to Mr Wang about my copyright fees?” Shi Jin sent Yao Jiahong a copy of her copyright certificate.
Yao Jiahong said awkwardly, “Shi Jin, why didn’t you tell me about this before?”
The moment he finished his sentence, he recalled Shi Jin telling him about this. However, he did not believe her.
Shi Jin said mildly, “If I charged Deng Yufei for plagiarism before this, I would only get tied to Chu Ling again and you know how much I hate him.”
It was the best time to do it now that she was no longer connected to Chu Ling and Deng Yufei in any way. This way, her charges would come off more powerful.
A wave of regret surged in Yao Jiahong’s chest. Shi Jin had suffered so much because of his past disinterest in her.
Shi Jin only came in second because he did not do his job to help her.
Moments later, he suppressed his regret and said, “I will talk to Mr Wang about it.”
There was a lot of work waiting for him.
Shi Jin only came in second and received less prize money and brand ambassadorship deals from the Sheng family than Wen Yongwei. However, the number of brands calling Yao Jiahong on their own accord offering brand ambassadorship deals was three times more than Wen Yongwei’s.
Yao Jiahong had to go through all the offers and compare their prices to maximize Shi Jin’s career growth.

Shi Jin got off the huge van and got into Fu Xiuyuan’s car.
He looked at Shi Jin with admiration and encircled her with his warm embrace.
All the chaos going on outside got cut off by his powerful hug.
Fu Xiuyuan had watched the live program tonight. He almost wanted to handle the production team for treating Shi Jin unfairly during the voting segment.
