Chapter 118
Xu Mingchuan still had other work to do, so after sending them to the airport, he did not follow them inside.
Bidding farewell to Chairman Xu, Qin Wei followed Li Yao into the airport. There weren't too many people this early in the morning. She wore a hat and mask, following behind Li Yao. Along the way, she was still recognized by several sharp-eyed passersby.
"Aren't you...Qin Wei?"
Qin Wei nodded while walking and answered:
"Yes, I'm Qin Wei."
"I watched your live performance yesterday! You sing pretty well, it's not lip-synching right?"
Before Qin Wei could respond, Li Yao was a little angry already. His dear ancestor worked so hard, and it was livestreaming too. How could people still doubt if his child was lip-synching??
But Qin Wei had a great attitude:
"It's real singing, don't worry. Right now we're pressed for time, otherwise I could stand here and sing a passage for everyone."
Speaking to this point, the passersby also felt embarrassed to continue doubting her. They tried their best to make up for it:
"I knew it! How could it be lip-synching during a livestream? My friend didn't believe it, you just sang too well, exceeding their imagination. But not me, I voted for you."
"I voted for you too. Er Gong, keep it up, don't get eliminated!"
Qin Wei gave them a slight bow to express her gratitude.
Li Yao led her towards the VIP lounge. So they parted ways with these people.
Li Yao teased:
"You can chat quite well now! Those few people clearly didn't like you, deliberately tried to pick faults with you, yet you could keep the conversation going? Next time just ignore them if you meet this kind of people, leave the bad guys to me."
But Qin Wei didn't take it seriously:
"Pfft! Are you expecting everyone to like you?
They happened to recognize you, looked up to you, so chatted a few sentences. It didn't delay anything so just chat!
Also, I didn't hear them picking faults. At most it was joking around. Don't take it to heart. If you treat others normally, others will also treat you normally. No one is superior."
Li Yao clicked his tongue:
"Fine, I don't oppose your thinking. But not all fans and passersby are friendly. I still feel you need to keep your distance from them."
Qin Wei seemed to want to say something, but someone called out her name.
"Qin Wei."
Looking in the direction of the voice, she saw Qiao Sixiao standing at a room door.
"Teacher Qin, let me take your bag too, I'll carry it for you."
Qin Wei waved her hand. She shouldered her own accompanying bag:
"No need, I can do it myself."
The assistant didn't insist, jogging to catch up with Qiao Sixiao's footsteps.
Behind her, Li Yao silently took Qin Wei's bag and carried it on his back. While walking he asked her:
"Why don't we get you an assistant? Chairman Xu has said many times, don't worry about money..."
"I just feel it's unnecessary. They don't let you bring assistants during training either. Usually I'm not busy to the point I can't take care of my own life. Also, with no one following me, I feel more free."
"If you need it just say so. We're not as badly off as before...
Also, you'll need to be livestreaming as soon as we get off the plane. You have to pay attention at all times..."
"Pay attention to my words and expressions, I know."
...
She slept who knows how many naps on the plane, still feeling a bit sleepy after getting off. Her legs felt soft as she walked.
Qiao Sixiao walking beside her saw her like this, and couldn't help ridiculing:
"How are you so sleepy? Were you up all night secretly working?"
Qin Wei gave a thumbs up:
"As expected of Teacher Qiao, you know everything."
There were already fans waiting to pick them up outside when they were waiting for the staff to get their luggage. Waving their light sticks and banners the whole time.
At a glance, at least over a hundred people.
Qin Wei looked over, still rather shocked.
Their light sticks and banners were all written with Qiao Sixiao's name, and printed with her photos. Looks like Teacher Qiao really had a lot of fans!
Qiao Sixiao's schedule was set long ago, but bringing Qin Wei was decided just last night. Plus the studio didn't make an official announcement, so many people didn't know.
"Ah!! Er Ye really came!!"
A fan let out this exclamation among Qiao Sixiao's fans.
Qin Wei didn't even think Qiao Sixiao's fans would also have her mother fans mixed in.
The crew glanced at the time, and started adjusting their equipment simultaneously. It wasn't far from the livestream start time.
