BXBX NOVEL Chapter 467 - 467: Notorious for Being Strict
Tutu took out his own Ultraman figure. “Jiejie, take a closer look. They are different. ‘
Li Zekai unpacked the figurine and held one in each hand to compare them.
“Aren’t they the same?”
Tutu pointed to the gemstone in front of the Ultraman. “The shapes are different. ”
Li Zekai was wide-eyed. “You can notice such a small difference? Maybe the uncles and aunties making the Ultraman had made a mistake. But you still found it.”
“Yeah, the packaging lets you see the gemstone. Silly Jiejie, why don’t you open it and look properly?”
‘Tutu looks down on me…
“Brother Jiejie!” Feifei ran over to them.
“Feifei.” The two little boys turned around at the same time. They instinctively hid the Ultraman behind them.
“I was bored at home, so I came to play with Brother Jiejie. Brother Tutu, you’re here too.!” Feifei said happily. “I brought candied chestnuts for you. I bought them in the morning, and Mom already peeled them for us.”
Li Zekai and Tutu exchanged a glance and revealed the toy. “Feifei, let’s play
Ultraman together.”
“Sure.”
[Tutu and Jiejie couldn’t hide them in the end.]
[They are good kids.]
[Huh? Where’s my Xuanxuan? Why hasn’t he appeared on the livestream yet?]
[Mr. Li and Ms. Lin just left. They don’t need to cook lunch. What are these three up to?]
[Probably tidying up the house. After all, they haven’t been living there for a while.]
[Impossible! The staff must have cleaned it already to ensure the guests are comfortable.]
Lin Wan brewed some goji berry tea and carried a kettle of hot water. She appeared on camera momentarily.
[Sister Lin is here. I knew Sister Lin was boiling water just now.] Lin Wan boiled a pot of water and filled three thermoses.
Li Yanchen and his elder son rearranged the room under Lin Wan’s instructions. They changed the position of the sofa and table. Once everything was set up, the two of them also walked out to the yard.
[Xuanxuan, your face is so red.]
[There’s steam off his hair. Is it because he’s hot? Xuanxuan, you’re working hard!]
Li Zexuan smiled and greeted everyone. “Happy New Year.”
[Xuanxuan, Bai Xue just mentioned you in the livestream. She said she’s only seen you among the guests and has a strong impression of you.]
[Someone in the chat asked if Bai Xue has ever considered collaborating with Li Zexuan. She said she obviously had. Xuanxuan, Bai Xue really approves of your acting skills.]
[Bai Xue is notorious for being strict in the industry. When she was a judge on “Actor,” she showed no mercy to popular stars.]
Li Zexuan looked at the chat and couldn’t help but smile. “Thank you, everyone.
Thank you, Teacher Bai Xue. I’ll visit her right away.”
At Bai Xue’s house, three members of the family stood in front of the camera. [Teacher Bai Xue, I want to take a leave to watch your livestream.]
[Teacher Qi, will you sing in the livestream? I really love listening to your songs.]
[Qi Yue, our PE teacher often talks about you in class.]
[Us too! The name Qi Yue is often mentioned by our PE teacher too.] [Teacher Bai looks heavenly. Even without beauty filters, her skin is so good.]
[Teacher Bai Xue, why don’t you have a personal Twitter account? You only have the studio’s account. I really want to see your personal selfies.]
[I also wonder when Teacher Bai will create an account. I don’t want to always hear about you from the paparazzi.]
“Mainly, I don’t like going online, and I usually don’t use my phone much. Most of my time is spent acting. The remaining time is either spent with family or dedicated to self-improvement. Creating an account without maintaining it won’t be of any use.”
[I heard Teacher Bai Xue is very disciplined. She’s maintained morning runs and workouts for twenty years. She even exercises during breaks on set.] [That’s why she has such a great physique and health.]
[Teacher Bai Xue, you and Teacher Qi are both in the entertainment industry.
How did you raise a child to be an athlete?]
Bai Xue had answered that question many times.
“Maybe Yueyue followed me so much on set that she constantly had to run to keep up. I guess she didn’t fall in love with acting or singing, but instead with running,” said Bai Xue jokingly. “Being a sports star is wonderful too. It’s an honor for the country.”
[Teacher Bai, Li Zexuan has arrived. Tell us more about Xuanxuan.]
“Li Zexuan is a hardworking kid. He debuted when he was just a teenager. He worked harder than kids of the same age. I saw him filming in Hengdian once. We weren’t in the same crew, and it was winter. That kid jumped into the cold water over and over again for a perfect shot.”
[It’s that scene from “Winter Solstice.” After the movie was released, I read the news about it. Because of the scene in the water, Xuanxuan had a fever for a week. That’s when I became his fan.]
[Me too. Back then, he was only in a supporting role, but that scene in the
water became the highlight of the entire movie.]
[Teacher Bai clearly approves of Xuanxuan.]
Li Zexuan stood outside Bai Xue’s yard and rubbed his hands nervously.
After hesitating for a while, he knocked on the gate. “Auntie Bai Xue, Uncle Qi, may I come in?”
“Li Zexuan.” Qi Yue looked up.
“Welcome!” Bai Xue and Qi Ming said at the same time.
“Hello, Auntie and Uncle. Hi, Qi Yue,” said Li Zexuan shyly. [Have you ever seen Xuanxuan so shy?]
[No, definitely not. So, even our Xuanxuan can be shy.]
“Have a seat.” Bai Xue patted the chair next to her. “Yueyue, get something to eat for Xuanxuan.’
“No need, no need. I just came to visit you, Teacher Bai. You are my… idol.”
[Xuanxuan isn’t so confident in front of Teacher Bai.]
[Maybe Xuanxuan sees Tacher Bai as a stern senior and doesn’t dare to speak much.]
[In front of Teacher Bai, Xuanxuan might not feel so famous.]
[Xuanxuan, you’re amazing! Keep it up!]
“Don’t be shy. Just treat this like your own home,” said Bai Xue kindly.
“Thank you, Teacher Bai.”
“Brother Xuanxuan, my mom mentioned you on the way here. She said she wants to learn from you. Even though you act and participate in variety shows, you still do well in your studies. She also said you have great acting skills. You give it your all but still remain humble,” said endure hardship, and remain humble…” Qi Yue brought over some nuts for him.
Li Zexuan was shy. He didn’t dare look at Bai Xue directly.
“Teacher Bai is too kind. I should learn from all of you.”
[Oh, come on, stop being so modest! If my child had even a tenth of your excellence, I could wake up from my sleep with a smile every day.]
[No kidding, right? Forget about being a top celebrity. If my child could win one award at school, I’d be happy for days.]
“Eat some macadamia nuts. They’re roasted.” Bai Xue pushed the bowl of nuts in front of Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan, like an obedient elementary school student, carefully picked up a nut and tasted it. “Very delicious. Did you roast them yourselves?”
“My grandmother roasted them,” said Qi Yue. “Mom, should I give Brother
Xuanxuan a packet of those?”
Qi Yue had been eating them since childhood and had truly gotten tired of them. Since someone liked them, she might as well share them.
Li Zexuan shook his head vigorously. He had eaten the nuts.. How could he take more home?
