I think temples are great; from now on, I want to visit and pray on the first and fifteenth of every lunar month. If you could recommend a few to me, that would be even better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relieved, Jin Li chatted while eating: \"Sister Fang, the temple itself is a minor matter; praying to the right deity is the major one. Are you seeking career success, wealth, or good health? Each deity has different responsibilities, so you must pray to the correct one for it to work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smiling broadly, Sui Lingfang said, \"Let's go with the God of Wealth. What do you think of that quasi-God of Wealth at the Great Temple on Yue Mountain in Nancheng? Is he quite efficacious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li nodded in agreement; she had personally verified his efficacy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang continued with a grin: \"I heard there's a lottery station next to the Great Temple on Yue Mountain where the lottery tickets are never fraudulent, and lucky winners often emerge having won hundreds of thousands?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li nodded again; she had won there just a few days ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The quality of the scratch-off tickets there was indeed excellent; she wondered if it was due to divine protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having laid all this groundwork, Sui Lingfang finally reached her conclusion: \"I heard that a few days ago, a young lady in black took her lottery tickets to scratch them beside the main hall of the Great Temple and won 200,000?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Jin Li froze completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang added: \"I also heard that the lucky koi fish who won those 200,000 was you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li immediately shook her head, blinking with feigned innocence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang was speechless: \"Stop playing dumb; the netizens have already dug you out. Do you know what they're calling you now? 'Jin Li, the Actual Koi'!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li put down her chopsticks, stopped pretending, and frowned: \"I was wrapped up so tightly; how could anyone recognize me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang was concise: \"The black hoodie, hood, and mask you wore during your livestream were exactly the same as your outfit that day. And furthermore—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused, speaking with frustration born of high expectations: \"Do you have any idea just how beautiful you are? Your aura is completely different from that of ordinary people. Nowadays, fans have all developed titanium-alloy eyes; with a single radar sweep, they can identify their idol just from a silhouette!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Jin Li's fans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those were the kind of people who could extract Jin Li from a blurry photo taken by a passerby!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li asked cautiously: \"Sister Fang, now that I've been exposed, is there any impact?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang shook her head, looking at her with kindly benevolence: \"None.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But a huge pie fell from the sky, and you've exploded in popularity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li's breath caught in her throat, neither going up nor down; this time she was truly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't want to eat anymore, but Sui Lingfang forced her to continue, citing health reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a hurried meal, Sui Lingfang finally explained the whole story behind her resurgence in fame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ultimately, it all stemmed from that video of \"the koi fish in black who burned incense and won 200,000,\" which hit the traffic code, turning the incident into a social phenomenon that swept the nation for a time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And since she happened to be livestreaming during this period, both fans and netizens participated in and witnessed the \"grand identification of the koi fish in black.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening, Jin Li finally understood why Sui Lingfang had talked so much about the company; clearly, she wanted to play the emotional card in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she had known the news any earlier, it wouldn't have had this effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it happened, Jin Li truly had no idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not beating around the bush, Jin Li asked directly: \"Sister Fang, what does the company want me to do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang had intended to make some small talk, but seeing Jin Li's directness, she replied equally straightforwardly: \"Come to the company tomorrow; the CEO will take you to Jingda Hospital to see an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Your upcoming schedule will be determined based on your physical condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li was somewhat surprised: \"I thought the company would immediately arrange engagements for me to capitalize on this wave of popularity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang's expression turned serious: \"This shows that our Chenxi Company is a conscientious and warm-hearted organization.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li burst out laughing, revealing dimples on both cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang smiled too: \"I'm serious. The company has never encountered such a sudden influx of traffic before. Although we are very tempted, we have decided to prioritize your health above all; otherwise, if an accident were to occur while you are working, it wouldn't be a stroke of good luck anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would instantly rebound into misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Li laughed until her eyes curved into crescent moons. \"Sister Fang, I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Sui Lingfang and Jin Li felt very satisfied with this conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sui Lingfang felt that Jin Li was truly different now; she lacked the lifelessness of the past, and just as the fans said, there were now stars in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Jin Li felt that Sui Lingfang was professional.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden surge of traffic could elevate a third-tier celebrity to second-tier status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for someone like Jin Li, who already had the foundation of a first-tier star, it could completely restore her former popularity and return her to first-tier status gradually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with sudden good fortune or misfortune, people's minds become unsettled; Sui Lingfang came to her door immediately precisely to soothe her emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xiang Jinli left, Jin Li had intended to scroll through some short videos to see how she had been filmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But remembering she had to go to Jingda Hospital for a check-up tomorrow, she stared at her phone for several seconds, let out a soft sigh, and put it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She walked to the living room, took out her tablet, and continued with her online classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given her current situation, going to a Daoist temple to offer incense would be difficult; having only recently regained popularity, paparazzi might well be staking out the apartment building right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She possessed at least that much self-awareness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was better to focus diligently on her studies; only then could her health improve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1392,"2026-06-15T01:57:26.148Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2e65cc6ddc94869fccba01aa2e2478e56f828ae5d01e06261bc5124dec734455","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-10","i-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--chapter-8",794,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-became-a-viral-sensation-in-the-entertainment--cover.jpg"]
