Zhu Xiangxiang felt irritated whenever Zhou Bao was mentioned and turned her head to look out of the window, not wanting to talk to her.
Lu Yao spoke softly, “I am Lu Yao, the editor-in-chief of Southern
Entertainment. Here’s my business card.”
Lu Yao handed her a business card. Zhu Xiangxiang hesitated for a moment before taking it.
It was indeed the editor-in-chief, Southern Entertainment, a famous entertainment magazine that she had heard of, which also had a print media subsidiary.
“It’s good for a girl to be cautious, but it would be a pity if you missed an opportunity because of it.”
Zhu Xiangxiang muttered, “Opportunity?
Lu Yao laughed, “I think you are well-suited for the entertainment industry. A friend of mine is currently looking to sign new talent, and I’d like to recommend you. You can consider it, no need to reply right now.”
Entering the entertainment industry? Zhu Xiangxiang had never considered this path and was slightly stunned.
Lu Yao patiently persuaded her, “You like Qu Feitai, right? If you join the entertainment industry, you can get close to your idol. Isn’t that great?”
This reason did make Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart waver for a moment, but she was well-aware of her own worth. How could she be worthy of Qu Feitai? A fan’s love for their idol was never about standing by their side—it was like a star admiring the moon, feeling satisfied as long as they could see him shine brightly.
Zhu Xiangxiang held the business card, her emotions in disarray, “I’ll think about it.”
When Qu Feitai returned backstage, Bai Weining walked up to him, “Brother Qu, your new song is very good.”
Qu Feitai ignored her, walking past her without even a glance as if she were insignificant.
Bai Weining didn’t get upset and instead smiled at his retreating figure.
“Weining, how do you have the confidence to warm someone’s cold butt with your hot face?” Annie teased.
Bai Weining touched the end of her hair in front of her chest and raised a confident smile on her beautiful face.
“Because he’s my Brother Qu, and one day he’ll remember me.”
Yu Beibei coughed, “Everyone, stay off the internet for a while. But I guess you’re used to it.”
“What’s there to be scared of getting blacklisted? It’s worse if there’s no attention,” Annie was nonchalant.
“Alright, let’s go back to the hotel. We have to fly to Jingdu early tomorrow. We’ll be busy preparing for the new album coming up,” Huang Chuchu stepped out and said.
“You guys go ahead. I’m going to visit my grandma tomorrow,” Bai Weining said.
After leaving the stadium, Bai Weining looked at the night sky and sighed.
“Brother Qu, it seems like you have fallen in love with someone. What should I
After handing over everything to Dai Wen, the time was almost 11 pm. Only then did Qu Feitai have a chance to take a sip of water and catch his breath.
“Xiao Fei, I’ve sent the pictures you wanted to your WeChat,” Tian Long was puzzled as to why Qu Feitai had asked him to take pictures of the VIP area, but as a small assistant, he wasn’t entitled to question it.
Qu Feitai opened WeChat and clicked on the photos, scanning through them one by one.
Suddenly, his brow furrowed, and his face darkened.
Tian Long couldn’t gauge his mood and timidly asked, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”
Song Yinzhang called in at that moment, and Qu Feitai answered, “Xiao Fei, congratulations on the successful completion of your concert. I was there, and the fans were very enthusiastic and the new song was great.”
Qu Feitai pursed his lips, “Are you gone now?
“Already home. Your fans are terrifying. I think my ears are going to be uncomfortable for a few days.”
After a pause, Song Yinzhang said, “Xiao Fei… I thought you would never show any feelings, but after hearing that new song, I’m very happy.”
Qu Feitai walked to the window and saw some fans still waiting outside the stadium. The red glowsticks waving in their hands were like twinkling stars in the night sky.
Unknowingly, a heavy rain began to pour down.
Tian Long sighed with relief, “Thank heavens for waiting until the concert was over before raining.”
Amid the thunderous rain, Qu Feitai’s voice was somewhat muffled, “She didn’t come.”
Song Yinzhang heard him clearly and paused before saying, “Wait a moment, I’ll call you back soon.”
Tao Xingxing had just gotten home when she received Song Yinzhang’s call. She felt a bit strange—why would Song Yinzhang call her in the middle of the night? It seemed odd.
“Xingxing, didn’t Ming Jing go to the concert with you tonight?”
“She had something come up last minute and bailed, so I had my sister come with me. What does it have to do with Ming Jing?” Tao Xingxing knew that all the boys around Ming Jing had ulterior motives.
Song Yinzhang, although not bad, still couldn’t compare to Ming Jing.
“Alright. You should get some rest. I’ll hang up.”
Tao Xingxing pursed her lips, “I’m destined to be just a tool.”
“The internet situation tonight isn’t looking great, Xiao Fei. Your new song is a huge hit, but the internet is filled with speculation about your love life. Tell me the truth…” Huang Chao had just walked in when he saw Qu Feitai snatch the car keys from his waist and rush out.
“Ah, my ancestors, what are you doing? It’s raining heavily outside…” Huang Chao chased after him with worry, but Qu Feitai’s figure was already gone.
Huang Chao slapped his thigh, looking at the pouring rain outside with a gloomy face.
“Ancestors, can’t you let me have some peace?”
Zou Dawei sized up the young girl standing beside Jiang Chunlan.
That scruffy girl was nothing but trouble.
A hint of hatred flashed in Zou Dawei’s eyes, but his face remained respectful. “Madam, the issue with the Narcissus Basin must be a misunderstanding. I don’t know how you determined it was a fake, but I assure you on behalf of our company, Jiade Group will never let this happen. You may have been deceived by someone.”
Jiang Chunlan smiled, “Do you think I’m easily fooled?”
Zou Dawei bowed respectfully, “That’s absolutely not my intention, Madam. Your discernment is clear.”
“Alright, let’s settle this matter today. If Jiade Group is at fault, your president will personally apologize to me in a newspaper ad and compensate me tenfold to demonstrate your sincerity. Otherwise, I will apologize in a newspaper. How does that sound?”
Zou Dawei was taken aback; the stakes were too high for him as a mere manager to bear.
Jiang Chunlan snorted, “Bold enough to do it, not bold enough to admit it.”
Zou Dawei’s temper flared as well, “Madam, you only believed this girl’s words and determined the Narcissus Basin was a fake. Forgive me for being blunt, but how old is she? Does she have a professional appraiser certificate? Madam, you can’t just listen to her side of the story.”
“Then what do you suggest we do?”
Zou Dawei’s eyes rolled, and as he was about to speak, there was a knock on the door and the secretary entered, “President Zou, Mr. Gutian is here to offer his services…”
Zou Dawei’s eyes lit up, “Quickly, bring the Master in.”
He took a slanting glance at the silent girl standing beside Jiang Chunlan. He thought to himself, “Wait for your comeuppance..”
