Chapter 867: Chapter 867: Directly Crippled, An Old Acquaintance, Face Slap Warning! (3)

Yu Xiheng’s brow twitched. “You found her?”

“Yes.” Huo Yanxing frowned. “She disguised herself. I recognized her, but she didn’t recognize me.”

He hadn’t disguised himself during his mission.

That left only one possibility: the woman had forgotten him.

Though it was indeed an accident, how could such a thing be forgotten?

He had remembered for three years.

It couldn’t have been better.

Supporting his head with one hand, Yu Xiheng said, “Hmm, this must be what the internet calls a ‘heartless woman.'”

Huo Yanxing was speechless.

After a few seconds, he asked slowly, “You surf the internet now?”

“My lady is a big star,” Yu Xiheng’s voice was calm. “I have to keep her company.”

Huo Yanxing was stunned. “… your lady?”

He felt like he’d been away in the Free State for two years and the whole world outside had changed.

After the call ended, Huo Yanxing took out a notebook and stared at a string of numbers on it in a daze.

With her contact information, he wasn’t afraid she would deny knowing him in the future.

There was plenty of time.

Early the next morning.

Director Qin, following the instructions from Great Xia TV, went to the Glenn Memorial Hall to shoot a program.

The memorial hall showcased the history of film development and had an exhibit for each year’s best film at the Glenn Awards, including wax figures of each best actor and actress.

After the morning’s recording, the crew booked a small café to rest.

Having been busy dealing with people the night before and not having slept well, Si Fuqing was trying to catch some rest.

Next to her, Song Wenhua and several other celebrity guests were chatting.

A female celebrity exclaimed, “Wow, Wenhua, you have such a good relationship with Queen Tong! She actually gave you tickets to the Glenn Film Festival!”

The festival tickets were for attending the event, and while they didn’t guarantee walking the red carpet, they couldn’t be obtained without some connections.

“It’s nothing much. I acted as a mother-daughter duo with Teacher Tong when I was a child.” Song Wenhua smiled. “I can contact her and see if she has extra tickets to share with you.”

She paused and added, “But isn’t Teacher Si not on good terms with Teacher Tong? Do you need me to mediate?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Due to strong audience demand, “Crossing the Demon Realm” was airing a second round on Starlight TV.

The second round was almost over, while Tong Luoyun’s “Great Zhao Dynasty” was only just reaching its finale.

With its seventy to eighty episodes, the pacing was extremely slow, and many viewers were aesthetically fatigued by the end.

Not only did the ratings not improve, but they actually dropped with each episode.

“Great Zhao Dynasty” could be said to have peaked at its beginning, while “Crossing the Demon Realm” kept breaking records one after another.

The simultaneous airing of the two dramas, combined with the condescending attitude of the “Great Zhao Dynasty” team towards “Crossing the Demon Realm” before the broadcasts, inevitably led to comparisons by content creators and influencers.

Tong Luoyun, being the top among the Four Actresses and a triple Golden Awards-winning actress, did not gain any advantage in this TV drama battle.

Si Fuqing opened her eyes.

“Teacher Si, we still need to respect our seniors,” Song Wenhua said. “The entertainment industry is only so big, and we will eventually collaborate. There’s no need to be at odds with our seniors. If you apologize to Teacher Tong, it wouldn’t be so awkward. After all, you both share the same agent.”

“If you take a step back, we could all go to the film festival together. The Glenn Film Festival isn’t just any ordinary festival.”

Si Fuqing looked up. “Are you done?”

Song Wenhua was momentarily stunned. “Done-done, yes.”

She felt a bit displeased.

“You reminded me,” Si Fuqing said, starting to rummage through her bag.

She then pulled out a stack of tickets to the film festival.
