Chapter 332 - 332: Stolen Things Won’t Last Long, Joining the Set! (2)

Translator: _Min

She sent a message to Yu Xiheng on her phone.

[Boss, thank you for preparing these ingredients for me. Are you trying to turn me into a little chubster?]

[Boss]: Maybe a round and plump fox.

Si Fuqing:

How could she be compared to an animal like that dog Pixiu?

That wouldn’t do.

She’d rather be a little chubby.

[A round and plump little chubster!]

There was silence for a few seconds on the other end, followed by a new reply.

[Boss]: Mhmm, that could work.

The car soon arrived at the airport, and Si Fuqing boarded the plane.

The assistant director had booked a first-class cabin, offering excellent privacy.

“Miss Si, it’s a four-hour flight,” Shang Lu handed over an eye mask and blanket like a dutiful servant. “You got up at five today, so take a nap.” Si Fuqing, chin in hand, pondered, “You’re acting a bit odd today.” Shang Lu, loudly, “Just say it, Miss Si, and I’ll definitely change!”

“Just keep quiet.”

Shang Lu, quietly, “...Okay.”

He must serve Miss Si diligently to prevent more people from vying for his position.

Southern State.

Noon, at the Great Xia TV program set.

Apart from Si Fuqing, the other five regular guests had already arrived yesterday.

The environment here was indeed harsh, with only one hotel nearby.

The program crew set up temporary tents to improve conditions, but couldn’t keep away the mosquitoes, snakes, and ants.

After the morning shooting, Xu Jiannian was resting in a tent.

“I just got the news; the program crew is really good at keeping secrets.” His agent lifted the curtain and entered, looking displeased. “Do you Imow who the guest is that the assistant director personally picked up?”

Xu Jiannian looked up, “Who? It must be someone impressive, even Teacher

Yuan wasn’t picked up by the assistant director.”

“Impressive?” The agent scoffed disdainfully. “Sure, she’s been trending these past few days. Just a photo of her makes her go on trending. She really knows how to buy popularity. These public resource-hogging idols change every few months. Can they compare to real artists?”

Xu Jiannian pondered briefly, then said, “Are you talking about the dance instructor from ‘Youth With You’?”

If it weren’t for Great Xia TV, no other variety show could afford to invite him.

Before joining this program, the girl’s agent had already advised her that advancing further in the film and TV industry would require building a good relationship with Xu Jiannian. [Curious about the last guest, such a mystery.]

[It’s not a mystery, just late.]

[Let’s see who’s got more clout than Xu Jianian, the top star, and even Teacher

Yuan.]

At that moment, a staff member called out, “They’re here!”

Xu Jiannian and the girl looked up, following the direction of the voice.

“Come, come, let’s meet our new friend,” the assistant director approached with a beaming smile. “Si Fuqing, only eighteen years old, still a child. Please take good care of her, everyone.”

Si Fuqing slowly emerged from behind him.

The camera focused on her, giving her a close-up shot.

She lifted her head slightly, her neck gracefully elongated.

Her eyes and brows conveyed a sense of nonchalance, exuding an effortless charm.

Dressed in casual sportswear, her distinguished aura was still unmistakable. The live feed momentarily froze, then suddenly exploded with activity.

[Wow! My wife, my wife, my wife!

[Oh my god, I actually came to watch Jiannian, and here I see my darling Qingqing! Ah, I’m losing my mind!]

[Qingqing’s here? The program’s ratings are secured, super excited!]

[Uh, maybe I’m too old, but I don’t recognize these new stars. Who is she? She does look good.]

Si Fuqing’s fan base mostly consisted of young students, and she had only participated in one talent show.

The reach of talent shows naturally wasn’t as extensive as that of TV dramas.

At the same level, variety stars’ national recognition was far less than that of film and TV actors, not to mention the loyalty of their fans.

The final episode of ‘Youth With You’ hadn’t aired the recorded version; most of the clips circulating online were of the segment where Xie Yu and the others were invited by Su Yang and Roz Rieg.

As a result, Si Fuqing’s popularity was somewhat overshadowed.

[Si Fuqing, dance mentor of ‘Youth With You’, the new top star, Xie Yu, was trained by her.]

[A variety star, got it.]

[Not to be rude, but look at the other guests on this show: Teacher Yuan

Heping, a national-level actor, veteran of the stage, has won the Golden Eagle

Award for Best Actor; Ms. Shen Xiuwen, a respected artist; Xu Jiannian, a top male star; Qi Shuning, Great Xia TV’s newly selected host, a graduate of Great Xia University’s in broadcasting; even Ning Luoyao was nominated for the Golden Eagle Award for Best Newcomer last year.

I really want to know how Si Fuqing, a popularity-based idol, got mixed in with these people. In terms of experience, you’re not enough; in terms of talent, even less so. What qualifies you to be on the same show with them?]

[Can’t really believe that just because she led ‘Youth With You’ and brought up a top star, she’s now on par with the real talents of the entertainment industry.. Why weren’t you the one invited to Glenn?]
