BXBX NOVEL Chapter 105 - 105: Glowing With Beauty
After taking a shower and lying in bed, Nan Mu was still thinking about Lin Shanchu and Tang Qidai being paired up by netizens.
The more he thought about it, the more puzzled he became.
He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Then, he opened Weibo again.
#ChuDai Couple climbed up two spots on the trending list.
It was the weekend, so there were many nocturnal netizens lurking around.
They were still surfing the net at such a late hour.
No.
He couldn’t be the only confused one here.
Hence, Nan Mu called Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou was a light sleeper.
He woke up the moment his phone rang.
Before he picked up the phone, he looked at the time. It was three in the morning.
“Speak,” he said.
It was an emotionless word, but it made Nan Mu feel a strong sense of oppression.
“It’s about Lin Shanchu.” Nan Mu’s desire to live was instantly ignited.
Huo Xunzhou didn’t say anything, but he didn’t hang up as well.
Nan Mu knew that his life was saved.
“Lin Shanchu and Tang Qidai are now on the trending list thanks to the netizens. You know about this, right?”
“Yes.”
It was Li MO who had told him.
Lin Shanchu was on the trending list a few times in a row. Li MO would tell him in detail what the trending topics and the netizens’ comments were.
“Hyping up a love line really increases popularity. Why don’t I find someone to hype up a love line with Lin Shanchu?” Nan Mu gradually forgot why he had made this call.
“Who are you looking for?”
Nan Mu racked his mind for a bit. “How about Ji Yuan?”
Lin Shanchu was one of his company’s celebrities. Only someone with Ji Yuan’s status was compatible with her.
Before Nan Mu could even think about it, Huo Xunzhou coldly rejected the idea.
“What I mean is…”
“No.”
Before Nan Mu could finish his sentence, Huo Xunzhou rejected the idea in a simple and crude manner.
“Yet you claim that you and Lin Shanchu aren’t in that kind of relationship…” Nan Mu laughed a little wretchedly.
Huo Xunzhou did not say anything. Instead, he sneered.
Nanmu immediately cleared his throat and began to speak seriously.
“When Ji Yuan was the assistant mentor in the production crew, there were already netizens who wanted to see Lin Shanchu and Ji Yuan as a couple in which Lin Shanchu is the older one. I was thinking that after this talent show is over, I’d let Lin Shanchu and Ji Yuan appear on variety shows together and hype up their love line as a couple…
“In this case, it’ll be a matter of time before Lin Shanchu becomes the top female celebrity.”
Nan Mu had already started to fantasize about rolling in money in the future.
Huo Xunzhou was silent for a few seconds before he asked, “What about anyone other than Ji Yuan?”
“Huh
Ji Yuan was already the most popular celebrity among the young celebrities in the company!
Nan Mu then reported the names of several young male celebrities from his company.
As expected, Huo Xunzhou rejected every single one of them.
Finally, Nan Mu understood the deeper meaning.
“Xunzhou, don’t tell me you’re… you’re planning to be the one in the love line!”
“Ahem!”
Huo Xunzhou cleared his throat. “Well, that’s not impossible.”
“Hahaha! If you wanted to do it, why didn’t you tell me in the first place?
Instead, you beat around the bush for so long…” Nan Mu laughed out loud.
“We’ll talk about that later,” Huo Xunzhou said coldly.
He hung up the phone.
Nan Mu threw his phone to the side and started to laugh uncontrollably.
Xunzhou was more or less a little angry from embarrassment.
To think that Huo Xunzhou finally discovered his feelings for Lin Shanchu.
How interesting.
The next morning.
The production crew had arranged for a car to send Lin Shanchu’s group to the studio.
Out of all six members, only Lin Shanchu and Wen Tongtong had some experience with advertisement shooting.
Ning Yunxi and the other three groupmates had no experience at all.
They had been nervous since they got their makeup applied to them.
After they were done with their makeup, they all gathered around Lin Shanchu and looked for her to impart their experience.
Lin Shanchu told them about some of her previous filming experiences, and then they began to chat.
A groupmate grabbed Lin Shanchu’s arm. “The rankings will be announced soon. If we’re not eliminated, we still want to be in the same group as you.”
“I don’t want to be in the same group as you guys anymore.” Lin Shanchu laughed.
They knew that Lin Shanchu was joking, so they laughed and started tickling her. Soon, they were all having fun with each other.
Wen Tongtong didn’t join in. She only helped Lin Shanchu up when the latter was laughing so hard that she was about to fall to the ground.
“Didn’t you say that we’re going to start shooting at half past nine? It’s already half past ten, and yet no one came to call us for the shoot.”
Lin Shanchu glanced at the clock on the wall.
She had been chatting with her groupmates, so she didn’t notice the passage of time.
Groupmate A said, “I heard that there’s a shoot scheduled before ours. Is it because that shoot isn’t done yet?”
“That’s way too long.” Ning Yunxi pouted.
Lin Shanchu stood up and sugested, “Let’s go out and take a look.”
Everyone was only allocated a limited period of time to use the studio.
Since the previous shoot had yet to end, that meant the crew was taking up Lin Shanchu’s precious time.
Her groupmates had no experience, to begin with, and if they didn’t have enough time, it would definitely affect the end product.
Lin Shanchu and the others had just arrived at the doorway of the studio when they heard sobbing coming from inside.
Among them were the consoling voices of the staff.
“But we still have to finish the filming first. There are still people waiting for their turn. ”
“Control your emotions first. If you really can’t do it, you can cry after you finish filming…”
The female celebrity who was surrounded by the staff continued sobbing while looking up at them. ‘What do you guys know? Today is Jing Ming’s death anniversary…”
When she saw that face, Lin Shanchu’s eyes flashed with surprise.
“Qiao Jiaxi?” Wen Tongtong was the first to speak.
“Who is this?” Her groupmates were puzzled.
Ning Yunxi had a good memory, so she whispered, “She was the one who accused Big Sister Lin of stealing her participating spot.”
“Oh, I remember now. She still put on a pitiful act on Weibo after that, right?
But things didn’t go her way.”
“Yup.”
“Wasn’t she criticized badly by the netizens back then? How could she still get work now?”
Wen Tongtong had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so she naturally knew more than her naive and innocent groupmates.
“Take a guess.”
Ning Yunxi blinked and whispered to Lin Shanchu, “Big Sister, what’s the reason?
“A lot of things can be bought with money,” Lin Shanchu said meaningfully.
“You mean she found herself a sugar daddy?” Ning Yunxi widened her eyes.
Lin Shanchu turned around and smiled as she reached out to knock on Ning
Yunxi’s head. “So, you even know about this.”
Ning Yunxi touched her head and smiled shyly.
It was a good thing that Yun Wu wasn’t here.
She could enjoy Lin Shanchu’s pampering.
Qiao Jiaxi had always been a nobody, and the evidence of her framing Lin Shanchu for snatching her position was irrefutable. There was no way she could clear her name.
Therefore, the only reason she could still shoot an advertisement now was that she had spent money.
If Qiao Jiaxi’s family was rich, she wouldn’t have remained as a nobody. In fact, she wouldn’t need to suck up to Tang Qidai in the first place.
In that case, the only possibility was that she had found herself a sugar daddy.
In the entertainment industry, the only shortcut for those who had no power but didn’t want to work hard to make a name for themselves was to find a sugar daddy.
Lin Shanchu had fair skin and long legs. She had already put on makeup and changed her clothes, and she looked so good that she was glowing.
She was particularly eye-catching as she stood at the door.
It quickly caught the attention of the photographer and the staff.
Qiao Jiaxi also turned to look at Lin Shanchu.
When she saw that the person standing at the door was Lin Shanchu, her face stiffened, and she quickly snorted before looking away.
Lin Shanchu walked straight in.
Qiao Jiaxi had previously falsely accused Lin Shanchu, so she was already feeling guilty.
Without waiting for Lin Shanchu to speak, Qiao Jiaxi looked at Lin Shanchu in alert, “What are vou doing?”
