The more she thought about it, the more she couldn’t figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking.
Lying on the bed, Qu Feitai turned over restlessly, thinking of Huang Chao’s words, suddenly realizing something, and abruptly sat up.
Picking up his phone, he dialed a number. After the call was connected, a low male voice came through: “Xiao Fei? This is the first time you’ve called Big Brother.”
“Is it you who invited someone to invite me to the show? Just to get me out of Jiangzhou.”
The other end of the phone went silent.
“I’ve grown up, and I’m no longer the scared, crying little boy I used to be. I know what I’m doing, and I know what kind of danger I face, but I’m not afraid. This is my own choice, and I hope it’s the last time you interfere in my life.”
The young man’s firm, cold voice rang loud and clear across the distance, reaching the man’s ears.
After a long while, a sigh echoed softly: “Do you really like her? Do you know what it means to like someone?”
The young man sneered, as if he had heard a joke: “I’ve known it since I was very young: in this vast world, and among countless people, I exist for someone. Sooner or later, she will appear in my life, and I have been waiting for her. The moment I saw her for the first time, I knew she was the one.”
“You ask me what it means to like someone? I can’t answer that, but I know that from now on, she is my hope to live a better life, my lifelong pursuit, my beloved career, and my beloved her. This life is enough.”
“I heard from Grandpa that when you married my sister-in-law, you faced the unanimous opposition of your parents. But you went against everyone’s advice
and married her- After she passed away years later. when von were surrounded
by young and beautiful women, you vowed never to remarry. You know the answer in your heart, so don’t ask if you already know.”
After a long silence, the man asked, “Do you remember Master Ku Ye’s fate for you?”
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
Qu Feitai’s eyes gradually changed from deep to determined: “Even if I am shattered and never to be restored, I will have no regrets even after death.”
“Hello, Honghong, I’m Zhu Xiangxiang.” The young girl had a delicate and attractive face, an elegant and gentle temperament, and wore a white dress, looking pure and well-behaved.
Liang Xiaohong nodded in satisfaction. Lu Yao hadn’t lied to her; this girl was quite promising and just the type the entertainment industry liked.
“How old are you?”
“Sixteen.”
“A bit young, but age is also an advantage in this industry. Here’s the contract, take a look, and if you have no objections, you can sign it.”
Zhu Xiangxiang looked over the contract and found it to be reasonable, which seemed to be due to Lu Yao’s mediation and not trying to take advantage of her. “Honghong, can you make me a hit within a year? I can endure any hardship.”
Liang Xiaohong smiled, seeing ambition in the girl’s eyes. Good, this was what a budding artist should be like.
“You probably don’t know much about me, but I can’t even count the number of artists I’ve helped achieve stardom. Zhou Zhengru, Li Xingyao, Zhao Ninghan, Liang Yanran…” Liang Xiaohong’s face suddenly changed, and she stopped talking.
Zhu Xiangxiang’s eyes were wide open with admiration. These were all prominent figures in the entertainment industry: Movie King Zhou Zhengru, popular young actor Li Xingyao, the controversial celebrity Zhao Ninghan, and leading young actress Liang Yanran… Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly realized that it hadn’t even been a month since Liang Yanran’s suicide, and the past month had cast a shadow over the entertainment industry because of her departure.
Ignoring the ill-fated Liang Yanran, the chubby woman in front of her was none other than the gold-medal agent in the entertainment industry, and Zhu Xiangxiang’s smile had a hint of flattery.
“Honghong, I didn’t know you were so amazing. I have been so ignorant, and I hope you can give me more guidance in the future.”
Liang Xiaohong was pleased with Zhu Xiangxiang’s compliment, and it lifted some of the gloom in her heart, “As long as you obey, the result won’t disappoint you.”
Zhu Xiangxiang didn’t hesitate to sign her name on the contract.
“Have you heard of the reality show ‘Three Meals a Day’?” Liang Xiaohong asked.
Zhu Xiangxiang’s eyes lit up: “Of course, it’s a very popular lifestyle reality show; I never miss an episode.””Great, I have a guest spot and I’m going to recommend you for it, which will be your debut. Since you’ve seen the show before, I don’t need to remind you what to do, right?”
Zhu Xiangxiang nodded, “Newcomers need to be diligent and sensible, always ready to work.”
Liang Xiaohong glanced at Zhu Xiangxiang’s fingers, which clearly showed that she had been spoiled at home and had never done any real work.
“As long as you understand, the specifics of the time will be determined when
Liang Xiaohong’s cell phone suddenly rang, and she picked it up and answered it immediately, “Hello, Producer Zhang …”
Whatever was said on the other end, Liang Xiaohong’s face changed suddenly, “We agreed on this long ago, you can’t change your mind at the last minute, can you, Producer Zhang?”
Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart tightened in an instant as she nervously stared at Liang
Xiaohong.
After the person on the other end hung up, Liang Xiaohong cursed, “F*cking bastard, playing me.”
“What happened, Honghong?”
Liang Xiaohong frowned and said angrily, “You can’t join One Day Three Meals anymore, someone has snatched it away.”
Zhu Xiangxiang hadnt been happy for two minutes before she was doused with a bucket of cold water, leaving her speechless for a while.
“Who dares to grab resources from me, Liang Xiaohong? Don’t they know who I am? If I find out who it was, I won’t let them off.’
Pausing for a moment, Liang Xiaohong looked at Zhu Xiangxiang, “The entertainment industry cake is only so big, it’s normal for people to grab it from each other. This time I was unexpectedly snatched away, but there won’t be a next time. Since you can’t go to the variety show, I have a spot for a talent show here …”
Liang Xiaohong looked at her, “What skills do you have?”
“Violin, dancing, piano, painting.”
Liang Xiaohong raised her eyebrows, “Your family must be doing pretty well, huh?”
Ordinary people couldn’t afford to send their children to learn these things.
Zhu Xiangxiang laughed but didn’t answer.
Lin Qing had spent quite a bit of money cultivating her, and she had learned all of these things, though none of them were her expertise. The only skill she was quite good at was the violin, but she had been out of practice for a long time.
“You should go back and prepare, this talent show is Fanyu Entertainment’s second season of Super Girl Group after ST Girl Group. They might even invite Qu Feitai as a mentor this time, so seize this opportunity.”
Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she clutched her skirt tightly with both hands.
Liang Xiaohong didn’t notice Zhu Xiangxiang’s change, lost in her own thoughts, wondering about what Lu Yao had said: if cultivated well, this girl had unexpected value.
No matter how Liang Xiaohong looked at her, Zhu Xiangxiang didn’t seem exceptional. That face wouldn’t stand out in the entertainment industry, and while her youth might give her some freshness, it wouldn’t last long.
Oh well, there weren’t any great prospects for now, so she’d make do.
A hundred miles south of Jiangzhou, there was a place called Hanshan that was named after Hanshan Temple. Master Jue Ming, a renowned monk of the temple, continuously attracted worshippers to the temple, making it a bustling place for many years.
At the foot of Hanshan, there was a village called Donghan Village, located near mountains and rivers with picturesque scenery. It was a geomantic treasure and the villagers lived and worked in peace and contentment, enjoying a prosperous life.
The One Day Three Meals production team chose to film at a small farmhouse on the outskirts of Donghan Village for this season. The house was backed by the green peaks of Hanshan and faced the babbling Hanshan stream, providing a cool respite from the scorching summer heat.
The fields surrounding the house were full of fruits and vegetables, providing abundant food and a pleasant life that reflected the theme of One Day Three Meals.
One morning, a thick fog enveloped Donghan Village, and the peace was shattered by the arrival of a car..
