However, this young master had always been willful. Otherwise, Mayor Xu would’ve been able to control him and Xu Wangzhi wouldn’t have run out to start his own career.
He was stubborn as well. After he debuted, he refused all resources from his family and started from scratch. Even the people in the company Xu Wangzhi was signed under didn’t know that he was Mayor Xu’s son.
The father-son relationship between Xu Wangzhi and Mayor Xu was only accidentally discovered by the manager.
However, the manager did not have much power to begin with. Otherwise, he would not have been arranged by the company to work with Xu Wangzhi. Hence, he couldn’t do much to help Xu Wangzhi’s career.
He had also promised Mayor Xu that he would not tell the higher-ups of the company about Xu Wangzhi’s identity, so he could only quietly accompany Xu Wangzhi.
In the past two years, Xu Wangzhi had relied on his conscientious auditions and filming to slowly stand out.
This time, Xu Wangzhi was invited to participate in the music variety show ‘Piano Story’ because he had revealed that he knew how to play the piano. However, because Xu Wangzhi was not famous enough and there were not many scenes, he did not receive much attention.
The manager spread his hands and muttered to himself, “You’re still insisting on bringing someone we don’t know onto the show. You’re surelv going to be eliminated this time.”
He went to talk to the director about the guest.
The director asked, “It’s been finalized? What’s her name and what does she
“It’s just a young woman. I don’t know what she does for the time being, but she should be good at playing the piano,” the manager said. “Wangzhi has decided that she’ll be his guest this time.”
The director said earnestly, “Everyone has to invite guests for this segment. Perhaps they’re friends or colleagues from the same company, but there’s no doubt that everyone will choose people who can help them. You have to think carefully.”
“We’ve thought about it. I’ll report the details to you when the time comes,” the manager said.
“Can’t you find a suitable person?” the director asked. “If you really can’t, I can help you contact someone.”
The director did admire Xu Wangzhi, but every time, he would edit Xu Wangzhi’s scenes ruthlessly.
He had to consider the popularity of the show as a whole.
Of course, helping Xu Wangzhi find a guest was also for the sake of the show’s popularity. He did not want to see the show lose its highlight.
Strictly speaking, Xu Wangzhi was now a little famous.
However, compared to the others, Xu Wangzhi still could not compare to them.
“Thank you, Director, but we’ve already confirmed it. Wangzhi is quite optimistic about this guest. We appreciate your kindness.”
“That’s fine too.” The director did not say much and only reminded him, “You need to make preparations. You should arrange Wangzhi’s future schedule for him.”
He was tactfully telling the manager that Xu Wangzhi was definitely going to be eliminated.
The manager said a few more words with a smile before returning to Xu Wangzhi’s side and relaying the director’s words to him.
“Got it, got it. Don’t hang your head. It’s not a big deal. I can audition for my next movie after this. I don’t really want to stay in this show anymore.”
Xu Wangzhi shrugged.
With that, he went to the piano room to practice.
There were already many people inside. This time, there was a very popular emcee from the TV station who was participating in the competition with him. There was a Best Actor, the son of a big director, and two newbies who had been famous for a while now. There was also a popular actor from a TV show who was more qualified than Xu Wangzhi.
Therefore, the director was right. If Xu Wangzhi did not work hard, he would be eliminated in this round.
Even if his manager was worried, there was nothing he could do.
Everyone’s attitude toward Xu Wangzhi was not bad. When they saw him, someone took the initiative to greet him, “Wangzhi, practice here.”
“Okay.” Xu Wangzhi walked over.
The manager also knew that the friendlier everyone was to Xu Wangzhi, the more it proved that he was not competitive.
After being on call Xu Wangzhi, Lin Shuhui called Qiao Weiyang.
“He wants me to appear as his guest act? When is it? Let me see if I can make time for it.” Although Qiao Weiyang was very popular now, she didn’t put on airs.
She would help whenever she could.
Lin Shuhui told her the time and date.
Qiao Weiyang asked Tao Huan to check the time for her and confirmed it on the spot. “Okay, no problem. Although I’m not familiar with Xu Wangzhi, it’s fine if he’s your student.” “Then it’s settled. I’ll reply now.”
Lin Shuhui said.
After Qiao Weiyang hung up, Tao Huan asked, “Are you going to appear as a guest act for others? Are you going on a variety show, Sister Weiyang?”
“Yes, more or less. It sounds like it’s for a music program,” Qiao Weiyang said.
“Help me make time. Inform Mingjue as well.”
“Okay. But let me check out who Xu Wangzhi is first.” Tao Huan noted down the time and went to investigate Xu Wangzhi’s situation.
After finding out, she told Qiao Weiyang, “It hasn’t been two years since he debuted. His popularity is average, far inferior to yours. He’s a piano player and has acted in a few online dramas. He’s quite good-looking. Do you know each other?”
“We met when we were young,” Qiao Weiyang said. “But we didn’t interact much. If it weren’t for Aunt Lin’s introduction, we might not even be able to recognize each other now.”
“Seeing as he invited you to appear on the show, I think he wants to rely on you to become famous. I think he’s at the bottom of the rankings in the previous round and his popularity is extremely low. Sister Weiyang, do you want to discuss this with Brother Lu first?”
“No need. No matter what his motive is, I’ve already agreed. How can I go back on my word?”
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Tao Huan did not persuade her anymore.
Lin Shuhui also called Xu Wangzhi to relay Qiao Weiyang’s answer.
Only then did she sit down again. She poured a cup of Pu’er tea and slowly savored it.
Lu Ke pushed the door open and walked in. “Mrs. Lin.”
“This Pu’er tea was just brewed. Come, have a drink first.” Lin Shuhui handed him a cup of Pu’er tea.
Lu Ke picked it up and took a sip. “It tastes good. Thank you, Mrs. Lin. I’m sorry I’m a little late. The doctor I went to see came a little late today.”
“You went to see the doctor? What did the doctor say?”
“The doctor prescribed medicine to ease the pain in my muscles and joints. There’s nothing else. Look.” Lu Ke took out the medicine. “I took the first dose just now.”
Lin Shuhui took out Qiao Weiyang’s medicine from her bag and handed it to Lu Ke..
