Swoosh, a voice message came through.
âAh? Now?â
Xu Qingyanâs voice from the other end sounded somewhat noisy, with a faint clacking sound, âWait a second, itâs a bit loud here, I⦠(Soupâs ready)â
Lin Chuan held the phone and listened three times, falling into thought. Hmm⦠If he hadnât misheard, that sound just now was a chicken crowing, right?
Before long, Xu Qingyan sent another voice message. This time the voice was clearer, intertwined with a womanâs delicate voice that sounded somewhat familiar.
âIâll wait to buy and listen to your new song when it goes live in the afternoon; I probably wonât be able to make it today. Weâre doing a farmhouse team-building, Iâll take you there when Iâm free next time.â
Lin Chuan: â???â
Isnât it⦠Bro, are you that free? Pei Muchan is definitely there too, which little diva would go off to a farmhouse team building at the mere hint of progress in her career?
In that moment, Lin Chuan didnât understand, but he was greatly shocked.
He glanced at the time, half past three in the afternoon.
He walked to the studio and pushed open the door of the office next door.
â¦.
Qi Ting closed the door to the arranging room behind her with a reverse hand, crouched down like a Digimon, sneakily and slightly lecherously, eagerly leaning close to Lin Wanzhou.
âSister Zhou Zhou, earth-shattering gossip! Do you want to hear it?â
âAh?â
Lin Wanzhou looked up, her brows and eyes glowing softly. From afar she looked serene, and up close her eyes held a spring of living water that rippled ceaselessly with the light.
Even having been around Lin Wanzhou for many years, Qi Ting still stood there stunned for a moment.
âSister Zhou Zhou, why do I feel like youâve become prettier recently?â
âPrettier?â The young girl always cared about her appearance, she hesitated for a while, then picked up the smartphone on the table and checked herself out with the front camera.
âNot really, itâs the same as before.â
âIâm talking about your aura,â Qi Ting pulled a chair over, sat down with her legs hugged, âlike in those operas from our childhoodâ¦â
Qi Ting swayed in the chair, a sly smile appeared on her face.
âLove-struck.â
âYouâre the one whoâs loveâ¦!â Lin Wanzhouâs face turned red, stopping at the word âlove-struck,â âNever mind, Iâm not talking to you, I have to write songs.â
She turned away, no longer paying attention to Qi Ting, yet her gaze involuntarily wandered towards the phone. Out of curiosity, she wanted to take a closer look at the âauraâ on her face.
She just wanted to see if there really was such a thing as âaura,â surely it couldnât be âlove-struck.â
As she thought, the words âlove-struckâ bounced in her head like an alarm bell, causing the temperature in Lin Wanzhouâs face to skyrocket suddenly. Her heart inexplicably sped up, and she became motionless.
Ever since she cried at the night market that day and said everything, she indeed felt much more relaxed.
Qi Ting seemed to think of something and added.
âSister Zhou Zhou, youâre not really in a relationship, are you? That day after you and Teacher Xu came back from the night market, I thought something was off with you.â
âHow⦠How is that possible!â Lin Wanzhou looked down slightly in rebuttal, âHavenât I been staying in the studio these past few days? Thatâs not what someone in love looks like.â
This reason seemed quite strong; even she felt a bit downcast.
âThatâs true,â Qi Ting nodded in agreement, âOn the contrary, Sister Zhou Zhou, youâ¦â She hadnât finished speaking when she suddenly bounced forward on her chair, startling Lin Wanzhou.
âWhat⦠Whatâs with me?â
âYou seem different from before, seems your mood has improved a lot.â Qi Ting exclaimed, waving her hand, âI canât quite put my finger on it, but itâs unusual.â
âDonât talk nonsense.â Lin Wanzhouâs face grew hot, unwilling to have her innermost feelings guessed, so she learned from Xu Qingyan and changed the subject, âWhat were you talking about gossip when you came in?â
Qi Ting exclaimed and slapped her head, eagerly saying,
âThe lead singer of Xiliang Band⦠didnât you mention him to me before, Sister Zhou Zhou? Itâs Ji Chen, the one who wanted to hit on you. He got exposed last night!â
âOh, exposed is exposed.â Lin Wanzhou didnât react much.
âThere have been too many stars exposed in these years, but none as outrageous as Ji Chen.â Qi Ting gesticulated wildly and gossiped, âHe visited twenty cities, and in every city he⦠with his fansâ¦â
âThey say there were even minors involved, and now some of the girls involved have already gone to the police. The story is never-ending, absolutely never-ending; there might still be more exposés to come.â
âSomeone calculated, Ji Chen must have been with at least fifty female fans. There are various pieces of evidence for each, the worst of which could put him behind bars.â
Lin Wanzhou didnât care initially, but suddenly hearing Qi Ting say that after a star becomes famous, they all act that way, she couldnât help but become anxious.
âIs it really like that for everyone?â
âHuh?â Qi Ting was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at Lin Wanzhou, suddenly realizing, âNot necessarily, like Teacher Xu, heâs totally impervious.â
âForget female fans, with Teacher Xuâs terrible personality, not even a goddess could conquer him. Confident and opinionated, he pushes away the things he dislikes.â
âHe wonât like someone just because they like him. Such personality is very charming; he will never be humble, never yield, with inner strength.â
âIf I had even one-tenth of Teacher Xuâs character initially, I wouldnât have been deceived.â
As she spoke, Qi Ting suddenly remembered something and said to Lin Wanzhou,@@novelbin@@
âSister Zhou Zhou, do you know what Sister Yunâs opinion of Teacher Xu is?â
Lin Wanzhou became somewhat nervous, âWhat is it?â
âTerrifying.â Qi Ting extended a finger, her expression suddenly turning serious, âSister Yun says someone like Teacher Xu is always true to himself.â
âWith such a person, either stay far away or befriend them, just donât get on their bad side.â
