“Xiao Fei, I can’t go in with you. Let Xiao Tian accompany you. Give me a call if something comes up. Hang in there for a maximum of three days, and it’ll be over soon.” Standing in the field, Huang Chao’s eyes showed a deep reluctance, like an old mother who had to send her son away from home.
Qu Feitai turned around and left without even looking at him.
Huang Chao sighed, still angry with him. He had quite the temper.
Tian Long said, “Don’t worry, big brother Chao, I’ll take good care of Xiao Fei.”
“Xiao Fei has never participated in a variety show. He’s straightforward and has never been wronged since his debut. There are two regular guests on this show who are senior artists that love to tease the juniors. Be vigilant and remind Xiao Fei not to confront his seniors. These three days will soon pass, and I’ll come pick you guys up.” Huang Chao kept on talking nonstop. If it wasn’t for the show’s rules that only allowed one assistant, he would’ve chased after them right away.
“Alright, big brother Chao, I’ll remember that. You should go back now.”
Tian Long pulled the luggage for a couple of steps along the country road, which was uneven with stones. He changed his approach to carrying the luggage, catching up to Qu Feitai at a brisk pace.
Huang Chao watched the two figures gradually become two small, black dots in the fields as they moved further away. He sighed, “I’m just not at ease. I can’t stand not keeping an eye on things.”
However, if the media got wind of his exceptional treatment, they would label Xiao Fei as a difficult top star.
Huang Chao watched until the two figures had completely disappeared. He then put on his sunglasses and got in the car.
“Let’s go.”
A white sedan brushed past him and stopped at the spot where Huang Chao had just been standing.
“Stop the car.” Huang Chao instructed the driver.
He knelt down on the backseat, peering through the rear windshield. Today’s guests were definitely the stars of this episode of the show. Qu Feitai, being such a huge star, should’ve undoubtedly had the show’s focus all on him. However, he heard that besides Xiao Fei, there was also another newcomer. It was obvious that the newcomer was heavily promoted by their agency to appear in the same episode as Xiao Fei.
If it were a male star, he would only be overshadowed. But it’s not clear-cut these days fangirls adored their male idols in an almost obsessive way.
If it were a female star, it’d be dire. Xiao Fei’s blood would be sucked dry, and Huang Chao was already drafting a counterattack in his heart. No matter the backing, whoever leeched off Xiao Fei’s popularity was asking for trouble. If they couldn’t learn to stand on their feet, they would remain kneeling.
He saw a short-haired girl carrying a suitcase emerge from the car first. She was dressed in a dull, gray outfit, plain looking at best – probably an assistant.
The carry-on sized suitcase was the smallest one available. It’s impossible that was her only piece of luggage. Nowadays, female stars require more than that just for their makeup. Or could it be a male star?
Soon, the figure that emerged from the car shattered his assumptions. A tall and slender silhouette, one that fueled unlimited speculation.
It was a willowy figure with long, black hair reaching down to her waist. Wearing a white dress that swept down to her ankles, she sauntered through the misty morning mountains with an ethereal grace.
“Damn it… it’s a girl.” She seemed young and had an elegant demeanor.
Alarms sounded in Huang Chao’s heart. The show’s production team was up to something.
The woman nodded slightly toward the car and walked towards the fields. Her assistant immediately followed, carrying the suitcase.
With her unhurried, calm demeanor, the white silhouette seemed like an immortal ready for ascension, exuding an indescribable profundity amidst the morning mountain mist.
Huang Chao froze. Why did he feel more and more uneasy? It was as if something significant was about to happen.
The white sedan seemed to leave without any lingering attachment, driving off in preparation.
Huang Chao instructed the driver, “Hit their car. I want to see who this newcomer is.”
Just as the white sedan rubbed past, Huang Chao’s car honorably scraped it. Both vehicles slammed on the brakes at the same time.
Huang Chao immediately got out of the car and knocked on the window of the white sedan: “I’m sorry, my driver didn’t see your car, and we scratched it. Let’s talk about how we can sort this out.”
The car window rolled halfway down, revealing an ordinary-looking man’s face. However, those vibrant and beautiful eyes on his face seemed strangely out of place.
The man glanced at Huang Chao with a cold snort, “You’ve been watching for a while now. Are you satisfied? I don’t think it’s your driver who’s blind — it’s you.”
Huang Chao’s anger flared up. How arrogant!
“Kid, you’re quite amazing. Which company raised a talent like you? Tell me, big talent agent Huang, whom you’re with..”
