Chapter 120

Crime Scene Investigation kept gaining momentum. The latest episode had surpassed 500 million cumulative views, and the show was a regular on the Trending Search list.

The production team was delighted. They had thought the variety show might be a hit, but they had never imagined it would be this big.

Hong Congshuang had felt as if she were walking on clouds lately. Her father had called several times, telling her to keep up the good work and promising her his full support in the future.

That meant Hong Congshuang had pulled ahead in the battle for succession. She was determined to take over the family business.

Choosing was for children. She wanted both money and power!

Before the premiere of Survivor came the recording of promotional material for Crime Scene Investigation.

With the show so popular, Hong Congshuang wasn't about to waste the opportunity. She invited all six guests to watch an edited version of the final story together.

Their reactions would also be recorded and cut into bonus footage for the show, a special treat for VIP fans.

Hong Congshuang wanted to go further and turn the show into a franchise, keeping all six guests for a second season of Crime Scene Investigation.

The generous terms had persuaded most of the guests to stay. Shen Baili was the sole exception, and Hong Congshuang didn't know what it would take to get her to agree.

That could wait. For now, the priority was recording the promotional material.

Shen Baili arrived and greeted the friends and staff she hadn't seen in ages. She felt oddly dazed by how quickly time had passed.

"Baili, it's been so long!" Han Wushuang gave her a huge hug.

Shen Baili hugged her back. "It has."

Four hours later, the recording was over.
