After visiting Song Yao at the hospital with You Nainai, Lin Nuan contacted Fu Tianci and headed for Jinjiang TV Station.
Fu Tianci had gathered the second-generation rich kids he often spent time with and the few classmates who had been bullied in school previously and headed to Jinjiang early in the morning. It was more than the five friends that Fu Tianci mentioned he was going to bring.
Lin Nuan hadn't arrived, and when Fang Yan saw the people Fu Tianci brought, she laughed softly. "Not bad, Fu Tianci. To think that you brought along eight friends!"
Fu Tianci, who was wearing a long black down jacket with a fur collar, had both hands in his pockets. The front of his jacket was opened up, revealing his school uniform. His clean and beautiful features appeared increasingly exquisite from the contrast.
He chewed on gum while standing in front of the luxurious sports car.
The combination of a good-looking young man with a luxurious car was especially eye-catching under the falling snow in Jinjiang.
Fu Tianci turned and saw that three of his friends were seated in the sports car, chatting happily.
Fu Tianci had made arrangements for the classmates who had been bullied in school to be sent over by a medium-sized bus. They were now standing a short distance away, next to the bus, maintaining a distance from each other as if they didn't know each other well. The atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Fu Tianci took out his fair and clean hand from his pocket and knocked on the sports car's door, saying to the second-generation rich kids in the car, "Let's go! We'll head up first!"
After saying that, Fu Tianci called out to the few classmates who didn't dare to come over. "Let's go up!"
The few of them seemed as if they were given a shock. They straightened their backs and exchanged glances… then walked toward Fu Tianci with hesitant steps.
Fang Yan and Fu Tianci walked in front.
They had just gone up the stairs when Fang Yan said to Fu Tianci, "I've prepared a contract. Take a look…"
"What contract?" Fu Tianci blew a white bubble that covered up his mouth and nose, leaving only a pair of gleaming eyes.
Snowflakes landed on the bubble, and with a soft sound, Fu Tianci, who failed at putting up a cool front, had his face messed up by the gum.
"Damn it!" Fu Tianci peeled off the gum. When he lowered his gaze, he saw the wet tissue that Fang Yan had passed to him.
"To be an artist under me!" Fang Yan's gaze was filled with certainty. She clutched Fu Tianci's shoulder and pointed upward, above the steps. "I can take you to the very top of the singing industry! The position where everyone will look up to you… Other than me, there's no one else who can take you there!"
Fu Tianci's brows raised. "Aren't you afraid of my old man?"
It wasn't as if there weren't any agencies who wanted to sign a contract with Fu Tianci, but all of them eventually decided against it out of fear of Fu Qingquan.
Fang Yan wanted to say that Fu Huai'an was her backing, so there was nothing for her to be scared of, but she heard someone calling Fu Tianci's name.
Fu Tianci turned and saw that Auntie Wu from Pengcheng's Mu family was pushing Mu Mantong, who was in her wheelchair, over from the parking lot.
Mu Mantong's gaze glanced at Fang Yan's hand, which was on Fu Tianci's shoulder, and she felt a little uncomfortable. She then turned and instructed Auntie Wu to push her up.
Fu Tianci had already cleaned off the gum on his face. He had both hands in his down jacket, and he looked toward Mu Mantong, waiting for her to come up before he asked, "Why did you come to Jinjiang TV Station?"
Mu Mantong smiled and said, "Didn't you say that you were going to film a show at Jinjiang TV Station today? I would be bored at home anyway and decided to come and have a look!"
Fu Tianci nodded and introduced Mu Mantong to Fang Yan, saying, "This is Lin Nuan's manager, Fang Yan…"
Fu Tianci's three friends had already walked to the elevator, and one of them received a call. After hanging up the call, he ran over to Fu Tianci excitedly, hanging his arm around Fu Tianci's neck and grinning as he punched his shoulder. "Fu Tianci, you're good! To think that even my childhood friend has been called here to give you support!"
Fu Tianci was grabbed by the neck and had to bend over due to his friend's pull. He asked, "Your childhood friend? Our school's Lei Yuqing?"
"That's right, our school's top beauty, Lei Yuqing! Look at how much face you're being given!" Fu Tianci's friend punched his shoulder again, agitatedly. "Why do you have such great luck with the ladies? My childhood friend is such a cool goddess, but to think that she'd be trying to get into your good books! Why am I so jealous of you!"
"I can't help it, I'm just too handsome. Scram, you've messed up my hair!" Fu Tianci pushed his friend away.
Mu Mantong smiled as she listened to their conversation. Her hands, which were resting on the wheelchair's armrests, clenched tightly.
She wanted to tell Fu Tianci's friend that she was his fiancée, but at the thought of her legs… she shrank back. The feeling of inferiority struck her, making her feel upset.
Fang Yan received Lin Nuan's call to say that she had already reached the basement parking lot. She hung up the call and told Fu Tianci to stop fooling around and head to the dressing room first.
"I'll head to the audience seats and wait for you…" Mu Mantong smiled at Fu Tianci.
Fu Tianci nodded.
When they were headed to the elevator, Fu Tianci's friend threw a glance at Mu Mantong and asked him, "Isn't the lady in the wheelchair the same one who came to watch the basketball competition the other time? How is she related to you? Your relative?"
"Why are you so nosy?" Fu Tianci seemed annoyed.
"My childhood friend has been wooing you. I've been ordered to find out the relationship you have with all the ladies around you!" Fu Tianci's friend said.
"You're crazy!"
Fu Tianci scolded his friend and followed Fang Yan to the elevator.
…
Lin Nuan was reading the script in front of the dressing table, and Mu Taotao was telling her about campus bullying while putting on her makeup.
"No one has touched on this topic before. Sister Nuan, given your and Lu Tianyu's reputation, the issue of campus bullying will definitely be highly regarded!"
Lin Nuan was a little lost in her thoughts as she held onto the information Miss Xia had given her. It was a bit different from what she had been thinking about previously.
This time around, Lin Nuan's plan of getting Fu Tianci to come was primarily to talk about campus bullying. However, most of Miss Xia's content revolved around Fu Tianci.
Miss Xia said that this concerned the show's positioning, which Lin Nuan could understand.
However, the questions that Miss Xia had given her weren't what Lin Nuan wanted to delve into with Fu Tianci.
This was also because Lin Nuan hadn't communicated with Miss Xia previously. Miss Xia thought that Lin Nuan had only wanted to bring up campus bullying, not expecting that she planned to discuss the topic in greater depth.
Every show had its own settings, just like how every celebrity had their own character settings. Recklessly changing the content that Miss Xia had given her would destroy the show's settings easily. Lin Nuan wasn't a person who didn't know her limits.
Lin Nuan lowered her head and looked at the script she was holding, having a vague feeling. Right now, she had already completed one big event in her life, her wedding. She felt that since life kept moving forward, people should also keep moving towards their dreams and getting closer to them.
"Sister Nuan, do you want to do a live stream?" After Mu Taotao put on Lin Nuan's lipstick at the very end, she carefully wiped the edges with a cotton swab.
