Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle-Chapter 665: Interstellar Decline of Imperial Rose Cannon Fodder (14)

Chapter 665: Interstellar Decline of Imperial Rose Cannon Fodder (14)

Qiao An had her secretary call Leng Ying the next day to inform her that the variety show was temporarily canceled.

Seeing that it was a call from Qiao An’s secretary, Leng Ying already had her suspicions.

After hearing the news, she looked extremely displeased.

She knew Qiao An cared a great deal about profit and couldn’t afford to offend the Luo Family.

So, she must have passed on what she had said to Luo Ning.

Based on previous experiences, Luo Ning would have certainly been provoked into agreeing to join her on the live broadcast.

But who would have thought that this time the woman had wised up.

And it even affected Qiao An to the point where she put the whole variety reality show on hold, preventing her from participating and whitewashing her image.

It was infuriating!

Her first impulse was to call Ling Ge and stir up trouble, but she held herself back.

She absolutely couldn’t break her persona, she had to wait for Ling Ge to contact her first.

Just then, a female star who normally didn’t get along with Leng Ying sent her several photos.

That female star had been at a bar with her wealthy third-generation boyfriend yesterday and had witnessed the scene where Luo Ning coldly told Ling Ge to get lost.

Remembering how Leng Ying had often relied on Ling Ge’s clout to snatch opportunities from her, always appearing amiable in public but often resorting to underhanded tactics in private,

She secretly took a few photos and sent them to Leng Ying, along with a few taunts.

The implication was that Ling Ge wasn’t that into you after all. Once Luo Ning called off the engagement, Ling Ge immediately made his move.

But Luo Ning paid no attention, either splashing wine or telling him to get lost.

Leng Ying’s expression grew uglier as she looked at the photos showing Ling Ge covered in wine.

On one hand, she was furious that Luo Ning dared to treat Ling Ge that way.

On the other hand, she felt panic setting in. Luo Ning seemed to be truly different now. If he stopped being a lapdog, then she would have to completely change her plan.

So she thought for a moment and dialed a number that she would only contact occasionally.

Meanwhile, Luo Ning was at Imperial College to handle the formalities for returning to school.

There was still nearly half a month before school started, but many students had already returned to the school for self-study.

Ninety percent of the students enrolled at Imperial College were Nobles.

Nobles represented powerful and influential groups across various planets, and the resources they provided for the nurturing of their offspring were incomparable to those available to commoners.

Thus, during each year’s entrance selection examinations, it was typically the offspring of the Nobles who scored higher.

The other ten percent were special admissions from various planets, selected for their strong Talents and good grades.

It was very difficult to get into Imperial College through connections.

Aside from members of the Royal Family and a few top-tier noble families who could enroll without exams, all other family offspring needed to have both Talent and grades that met requirements.

The reason for these privileges granted to the offspring of the Royal Family and the top-tier noble families was mainly due to the contributions they had made to the Empire.

Currently, all forces resisting the Insect Clan and Alien Clan on all border lines were solely comprised of the Royal Family’s and the four major noble families’ troops.

Every year, members from these families would sacrifice themselves.

Apart from these, there was another special case: one could enroll without exams if they possessed either a spiritual power Talent or a physical Talent rated ’A.’

If someone from a family had distinguished themselves on the battlefield, even if they were poor soldiers, their contributions could be used to secure a spot for their offspring at Imperial College.

The original body had gained admission to Imperial College as the top student from Imperial Capital Star.

Originally, with that privilege, one could reside in the best environment and resource zone, the ’S’ class accommodation area, at Imperial College.

But at that time, since Ling Ge hadn’t moved into the ’S’ class single apartments either, and chose to stay in the ’A’ class shared dormitory,

The original body made the same choice.

The collective dormitories in Area A offered both double and quadruple occupancy rooms; the former required a substantial annual accommodation fee, while the latter was free of charge.

Therefore, the quadruple occupancy rooms were mostly occupied by the ten percent of students who were specially admitted or by fallen nobles.

And the original occupant was the only top-tier noble from the Imperial Capital Star who had chosen a quadruple occupancy room among all the students that year.

After completing the readmission procedures, Luo Ning applied for a single apartment at the school.

It’s foolish not to utilize available resources.

The original occupant’s choice to stay in the quadruple room was awkward for her, and for her roommates as well.

They not only did not dare to offend her but also had to flatter her, fearing that provoking her would result in her making things difficult for them at the academy.

Thus, other than one person, the other two banded together, outwardly polite to the original occupant but actually quite distant.

Behind her back, they even complained that she was crazy, spurning the luxury of a single room to stay in the worst conditions of a quadruple room.

Luo Ning’s return to the Imperial College surprised the senior management, but there was no need for layer-by-layer approval, as the director of the Mechanical Manufacturing Department agreed on the spot.

As for the single dormitory, that was even less of an issue, as it was a privilege due to the direct descendants of the Luo Family.

The director even took the initiative to help Luo Ning choose a vacant room with the best environment and facilities.

After Luo Ning re-entered her accommodation information, she returned to her original dormitory to pack up her belongings.

Nowadays, entering any place did not require a key—everything was verified through facial recognition, iris scans, and fingerprints.

When Luo Ning successfully verified her identity and pushed open the door to the dormitory, she saw one of the girls making a phone call.

The girl was startled at first when someone pushed the door open, then quickly disconnected the call with impressive speed.

The image of the person she had been speaking with vanished from the room immediately.

After abruptly ending the call, the girl turned her head and upon realizing it was Luo Ning who had come in, was startled once more.

Gong Shengjia wondered if Luo Ning had seen anything.

She forced herself to appear calm and asked with a surprised smile, "Luo Ning, what brings you here?"

Luo Ning was expressionless and very cold, "This is my dormitory, why can’t I come?"

This person was the roommate and so-called "good friend" who had always been whispering in the original occupant’s ear.

Gong Shengjia also came from the Imperial Capital Star and her family could barely be considered upstarts.

Her father had made a name for himself in the military led by the Royal Family, earning accolades several times over and rising to the rank of Vice Admiral.

He had used one such act of valor to secure her a place at the Imperial College.

Otherwise, with her spiritual power only at grade A and her physical condition at grade B, she would not have made the minimum double-A requirement for admission to the Imperial College.

After the original occupant moved in here, Gong Shengjia was very warm to her, not putting on airs like others, treating her like a regular classmate and roommate, which made a good first impression on the original occupant.

As both were in the Mechanical Manufacturing Department and due to Gong Shengjia’s ulterior motives, the original occupant gradually became close to her.

Because of the original occupant’s help, Gong Shengjia managed to raise her grade B physical condition to an A by taking an extremely expensive Transformation Potion.

Her spiritual power also reached S grade.

She had access to resources in the academy normally reserved for first-class and top-tier nobles, or students who were among the top ten in age and grades—all because of the favor shown by the original occupant.

With the original occupant’s care, Gong Shengjia thrived in the college like a fish in water.

The original occupant also helped her solve many family issues and introduced her into the true circles of the Imperial Capital’s elite.

However, far from being grateful, while enjoying the benefits and resources brought by the original occupant, she secretly conspired with Leng Ying, constantly provoking and agitating the original occupant.

The original occupant’s downfall and disgrace had a lot to do with her.

Due to her betrayal of the original occupant, with Leng Ying’s aid, Gong Shengjia ultimately married a son from a first-class noble family of the Empire.

The original occupant, having been raised somewhat naively by the Luo Family, and only pursuing Ling Ge, was deceived because Gong Shengjia was too good an actress.

Luo Ning naturally would not bother with such an ingrate again, not even willing to pretend, a luxury afforded by her status as a direct descendant of a top-tier noble family.

Of course, Luo Ning was determined to make Gong Shengjia pay back double for every drop she sucked from the original occupant.
