After the Picky Big Sister and Her Little Brother Joined a Variety Show

Xi Yingqiao woke up one day to discover she was the cannon-fodder female supporting character in a book. On a variety show, she and her younger brother, Xi Yingchi, were always arguing, serving as foils to the heroine and her brother's loving relationship.

Xi Yingqiao: So obviously fake. That brat Xi Yingchi wouldn't dare argue with me, would he?

But...

How could she, Xi Yingqiao, play second fiddle to someone else?! Even if it was fake, absolutely not!

When Xi Yingchi was told again that he had to appear on a variety show with his high-maintenance older sister, he nearly fell apart. Not long ago, his own sister had frowned and said, "What variety show? You expect me to appear in person?"

On the eve of the show's premiere, a set of audio recordings was leaked online. Xi Yingchi's irritated, reluctant voice came through loud and clear:

"You want me to go on a variety show with my sister? No way!"

The haters got their keyboards ready: He's that opposed to it?! Proof that the siblings don't get along! Now we've got plenty to criticize! We've never even seen his sister! Let's start a rumor that she's ugly!

After the show premiered...

The notoriously bad-tempered top-tier star Xi Yingchi got out of the car, walked around to the other side, and opened the door. He humbly yet elegantly offered his hand. His supposedly ugly older sister lightly placed her hand in his and stepped out in full finery, dazzling everyone and outshining the bland original heroine!

During the challenges, the original heroine's team supported and encouraged each other as they worked together to complete their tasks. But in the Xi siblings' group, only the younger brother was huffing and puffing as he worked, while his sister sat quietly on a lounge chair and enjoyed herself.

Netizens: So this is how her all-around talented little brother was trained. I'm so jealous of Xi Yingqiao TAT

Haters: She doesn't do a thing. No princess's fate, but she has princess disease.

Not long after, though, netizens dug up Xi Yingqiao's identity: she was the heiress of the ultra-wealthy Xi family.

Everyone else: ?? You call that not having a princess's fate? If she doesn't have one, do you?

On top of that, netizens were stunned to discover that the industry's top genius fashion designer, whose custom-designed outfits were coveted by all the biggest stars, was none other than Xi Yingchi's older sister, Xi Yingqiao!

Netizens had a burning question: Why have we never seen Xi Yingchi wearing anything designed by Xi Yingqiao?

Haters: So much for getting along. He even hates his sister's designs!

Xi Yingchi: Do you think I don't wear my sister's designs because I don't want to? Of course it's because I'm not worthy :)

Netizens switched sides in droves, and some even got competitive: Look at me, big sis!! I'm talented at everything too!! I'll learn whatever I don't know! Do you happen to need another younger brother or sister?

One day, a friend of Xi Yingchi's returned from abroad and slung an arm over his shoulder. "Having such a troublesome older sister must be rough."

Xi Yingchi thought someone finally understood him. He was just about to pour out his grievances when his friend said:

"Give me your sister's contact information. I'll help you bear that burden."

Xi Yingchi: "...?"

So that's your real intention!

Get lost!!!!
