Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, the Diary of a 95 Flower

Chapter 657 Hao Chun, How Could You Bear to Lie to a Child?

Shenyang International Airport.

Passengers were coming and going everywhere, and the loudspeakers were playing a friendly reminder on a loop: "Attention passengers, check-in for flight MU5132 to Changsha Huanghua International Airport will begin soon. Please bring your ID and proceed to the check-in counter..."

Zhao Jinmai, carrying a small backpack, took out her boarding pass. Thinking that she was about to fly to Changsha to record "Mars Intelligence Agency," she was still a little nervous.

At the same time, I'm looking forward to a brand new experience.

As she went through the check-in and security procedures, she would occasionally look up at the airport's display screens, afraid of missing her boarding announcement.

He silently thought to himself, "I must perform well and not be worse than Xiao Jiang and Chao Yue Ruth, otherwise I don't know how they will laugh at me in the group chat."

Board the plane and find your seat.

Zhao Jinmai took out her phone, switched it to airplane mode, and instead of resting like the other passengers, she opened the first episode of "Mars Intelligence Agency" that she had already cached.

I've watched it several times in the past few days.

Watch it repeatedly.

Especially the shots of Jiang Yang, Yang Chaoyue, and Zhao Lushi.

I watched their every move on the show very carefully.

The plane taxied slowly and gradually took off.

The houses and streets outside the window gradually shrink, eventually becoming a dense array of tiny dots.

The clouds spread out below like fluffy cotton candy, and sunlight streamed through the porthole onto the screen and onto Zhao Jinmai's face.

Zhao Jinmai watched with exceptional focus, silently learning as she watched.

Although it was Xiao Jiang's first time on a variety show, he was very serious, his proposals were insightful, he spoke with tact, and he wasn't nervous in front of the camera.

Chao Yue is straightforward and sincere. Whether she is presenting her proposal or interacting with guests, she is natural and unpretentious. That relaxed feeling should be very attractive.

Sister Lu Shi is gentle yet powerful, her proposals are based on sound values, she speaks logically and is very likable.

Several times, I watched Ruth's mouth open.

You should say the word "Mom".

In the end, they all held back and changed their tune in time.

Zhao Jinmai wanted to laugh every time she watched it, but no one in the comments section saw the joke.

It's estimated that only those who know Ruth can understand it.

This was her first time on such a popular variety show, and she had never had any recording experience like this before. She didn't know if she could quickly adapt to the rhythm of the show, if she could perform as naturally as the others, or if she would make mistakes due to nervousness.

She turned off the video and leaned back in her seat.

Looking at the clouds outside the window, she silently told herself that she must do her best.

You can't let the label of "child star" be permanently attached to you.

If you're always defined as a child, you'll only ever be able to play childish roles.

She wants to use this variety show to broaden her acting range and let the audience see a different side of her.

At the same time, she knew clearly that without Jiang Yang, she would never have received such an announcement.

This variety show has only been airing for a few days, but its popularity has remained high, clearly showing the potential to be a hit. She wasn't even on the original guest list; Jiang Yang used his connections to force her onto the show.

Before we knew it, the plane began its smooth descent, and the flight attendant's voice came over the intercom again: "Dear passengers, this flight is about to arrive at Changsha Huanghua International Airport. Please gather your belongings, fasten your seatbelts, and prepare for landing."

Zhao Jinmai snapped out of her daze, sat up straight, and started tidying her schoolbag.

Looking down through the porthole, you can see the outline of Changsha.

Skyscrapers are arranged in a pleasing, orderly fashion, and the Xiangjiang River flows through the city like a silver ribbon, with distant mountains appearing and disappearing in the distance.

The plane landed slowly, with a slight turbulence, then gradually taxied and finally came to a stop on the tarmac.

After getting off the plane, a humid and hot wind hit me, which was completely different from the dryness of Shenyang.

Zhao Jinmai followed the flow of people across the covered bridge and followed the signs to the baggage claim area.

Amidst the rumble of the baggage carousel, she stared at the slowly turning conveyor belt, quickly recognizing her suitcase covered in cartoon stickers. She reached out and steadily lifted it down, then pulled out her phone and sent a message to [Pretty Girl Battle 4]: ["Xiao Jiang, have you arrived at the airport yet?"]

I received a reply from Jiang Yang, which was a voice message.

Her tone was tired, and her voice was hoarse: ["We've arrived, Haochun. I'm at the arrivals gate with Xiwei, waiting for you."]

Zhao Jinmai frowned and listened several times.

In Jiang Yang's voice message, you could clearly hear the flight arrival announcements playing on repeat, the rumbling of suitcase wheels on the ground, and the conversations of passengers.

Xiao Jiang is indeed at the airport.

But the reply sounded like a joke.

Zhao Jinmai typed: [“Look closely, it’s me, Zhao Jinmai, your little darling has gone to war!”]

Zhao Jinmai posted again: ["Haochun is also in Changsha? Is he going to be on this episode of 'Mars Intelligence Agency'?"]

Liu Haochun chimed in: [“I’m not in Changsha, I’m in Huizhou, with Zhou Ye.”]

Tian Xiwei chimed in: ["I'm not in Changsha either. I finished filming the dubbing for Youxuepai in Pengcheng a few days ago, so I came to Huizhou to visit Zhou Ye. Hao Chun is here too. By the way, let me tell you, Ye Zi is really tanned now, he got so tanned from delivering takeout."]

Immediately afterwards, Tian Xiwei sent a short video to the group.

It was taken in a hotel king-size bed room.

The bedside lamp illuminated the entire room, and the large bed was covered with soft sheets.

Liu Haochun sat on the left side of the large bed, leaning against the headboard with his legs stretched out over the edge. He was wearing a round-neck short-sleeved shirt and his fingers were tightly gripping his phone, the screen of which was lit up.

Immersed in the game of Honor of Kings.

His brows were furrowed, the headphone cord still tangled around his wrist, and he was completely focused.

Zhou Ye lay quietly in the middle of the large bed.

Her originally fair skin has turned dark brown from long hours of outdoor delivery work.

I'm still sleepy.

Her face was resting against the soft pillow, her hair disheveled.

His eyes were closed, and he was sleeping very soundly.

There was an unfinished bottle of mineral water and a takeout bag on the bedside table.

In the video, Liu Haochun is intently staring at his phone screen.

He glanced sideways at Tian Xiwei, his eyes still glued to his phone screen: "Xiwei, what are you doing?"

Your finger slides across the screen.

Tian Xiwei held up her phone, filming the two of them, and said with a smile, "Let's record a short video. I don't know what's going on with Jiang Yang. He's in Changsha, and he said in the group chat that he'd pick you up from the airport, and that I was with him. He must have stayed up all night. I wonder how he and Sister Meng were having fun last night. Mai Mai and Sister Meng are going to be on this episode of 'Mars Intelligence Agency' with Jiang Yang..."

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Haochun interrupted her: "Don't record me, it's affecting my performance. I'm playing against Chaoyue. If she beats me, she won't have to hand in her dance homework tonight."

As she spoke, she subconsciously moved to the side.

Still staring at the phone screen.

His brows furrowed even more.

"Is Chunbao shy? We want to record, we want to record!" Tian Xi smiled and leaned closer, her head close to Liu Haochun's phone screen.

Taking advantage of Liu Haochun's inattention, he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

Liu Haochun irritably wiped his face: "Ugh, what's wrong with Tian Xiwei? Go to hell, go to hell."

Tian Xiwei couldn't help but laugh: "What hero is Chaoyue playing?"

Liu Haochun's phone was in a voice call, and Yang Chaoyue was on the other end.

Upon hearing Tian Xiwei's question, Yang Chaoyue's voice immediately rang out from the phone screen: "Which hero am I playing? The one who lost Jingzhou due to carelessness." "Oh, I know, it's Guan Yu!"

"No, no, it's Xiang Yu!" Yang Chaoyue quickly corrected, his tone full of certainty.

Did Xiang Yu lose Jingzhou due to carelessness?

Tian Xi was taken aback for a moment, then raised her voice and scolded, "Yang Chaoyue, I told you to study hard, but you insisted on herding cattle!"

"Shut up, Tian Xiwei."

Zhou Ye squinted and shouted impatiently.

She rolled over and mumbled, "Remember to wake me up at noon. There are a lot of orders at noon, so don't delay my delivery schedule."

"Okay, okay, no more noise, no more noise."

Tian Xi lowered her voice slightly and responded with two sentences.

Yesterday, Zhou Ye took her and Hao Chun to deliver a few takeout orders. She was exhausted in no time and really didn't know what was so interesting about delivering takeout.

The key point is that Zhou Ye's family isn't short of money.

Ye Zi only earns 200 yuan a day delivering food, but the hotel where the three of them stay costs 300 yuan a night, which is not cost-effective no matter how you look at it.

I really can't understand how Jiang Yang was brainwashed by Zhou Ye. She tried to persuade Zhou Ye many times, but he wouldn't listen at all.

Liu Haochun completely ignored the two people beside him, still concentrating on his solo match with Yang Chaoyue.

On his phone screen, Huang Zhong, whom he was controlling, had already activated his ultimate skill. His tone was smug: "Chaoyue, I'm not afraid of you. I've already built lifesteal items. You can't beat me at all!"

Yang Chaoyue's defiant voice immediately came from the phone: "Even if you have the seventh dimension, you're still going to die!"

The video was posted to the [Pretty Girl Battle 4] group.

Bai Lu Bubbling: [“You three went to have sex, huh? I backed up the video. You two have ruined Ye Zi's reputation. I'll keep this secret for the rest of my life.”]

Jiang Yang sent a message: ["I misspoke earlier. I stayed up all night and didn't sleep, so I'm not feeling well right now. Sorry, Mai Mai. Meng Jie and I are waiting for you at the arrival gate. I didn't mean Xi Wei. I misspoke earlier. Meng Jie is Meng Ziyi. She's going to be on a variety show with you. You'll meet her when you see her."]

Zhao Jinmai replied: ["Meng Ziyi, I know her. Chaoyue and the others talked to her. Like me, she got this resource through your connections, Xiao Jiang. Sister Meng is the most beautiful girl at Beijing Film Academy, and she sings incredibly well, a heavenly songstress. Go to karaoke with her sometime."]

[“MaiMai, who told you that Sister Meng is a heavenly singer?”] Jiang Yang sent a message.

[“Chaoyue, Xiwei, Bailu, and Haochun all say the same thing.”] Zhao Jinmai replied.

Jiang Yang typed: ["I'm not surprised that Chao Yuexi and Bai Lu did this, but Hao Chun, how could you bear to lie to children? I told you to stay away from them, or you'll be corrupted."]

Liu Haochun replied instantly: ["I'm not lying, Sister Meng sings really well."]

A message popped up from Jiang Yang: "[What if you lied to someone?]"

[“All the money Ruonan and I earn from now on will be yours.”] Liu Haochun replied.

Zhang Ruonan chimed in: ["Do I want to come too?"]

Liu Haochun typed: ["Yes."]

Zhang Ruonan replied: ["Okay, I'm willing."]

Zhao Jinmai didn't chat much; her checked luggage had arrived.

Dragging her suitcase, she followed the flow of people toward the exit.

The exit hall was bustling with noise. People holding signs to welcome passengers crowded behind the railings, and the loudspeakers were still broadcasting flight arrival information on a loop, mixed with the rumbling of suitcase wheels on the ground.

The air is humid and hot.

As soon as Zhao Jinmai reached the exit hall, before she could even look around, she heard a familiar voice pierce through the noise and land clearly in her ear: "Maimai, over here, Mai Mai!"

Her heart skipped a beat, and she looked up, immediately spotting Jiang Yang in the crowd.

I saw Jiang Yang standing inside the railing, a little distance from the entrance.

He was wearing a hooded sweatshirt, but the hood wasn't up, and he had a T-shirt underneath.

The lower body is made of tapered pants.

The trouser legs were tucked into white sneakers.

If one doesn't know Jiang Yang well enough to recognize his voice and know that he will come to pick them up at the airport...

Just by looking at Jiang Yang's clothes, you really wouldn't recognize him, mainly because he was wearing a mask.

It completely covered most of her face.

Only his eyes were visible, with the corners of his eyes slightly upturned, and he was looking at her with a smile.

The tension in my heart eased.

Along the way, much of the tension and anxiety about filming the variety show dissipated.

She couldn't help but smile, quickened her pace, and instinctively opened her mouth to call out, "Jiang Yang."

As she was about to speak, her gaze swept over the mask on Jiang Yang's face.

He then noticed two young girls nearby holding their phones, hesitating whether to approach Jiang Yang.

She realized what was happening.

Although Jiang Yang often chatted and joked with her in the group chat.

But in reality, Jiang Yang's reputation is different from what it was six months ago.

Especially unlike a few days ago, the popularity of "Mars Intelligence Agency" soared after the first episode aired.

It's currently very popular.

Making a public appearance might lead to recognition and trigger a dimensional shift.

That's why Jiang Yang was wearing a mask.

Zhao Jinmai, who was about to say the name, abruptly changed her mind. She waved her free hand and called out to him with a smile, "Xiao Jiang! It's been more than half a year! Let me tell you, I've grown taller. It won't be long before I'm as tall as you!"

Jiang Yang responded.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Ziyi's voice was heard from behind: "Is that Zhao Jinmai? She's so small."

“Yes.” Jiang Yang came back to his senses.

Meng Ziyi stepped out from behind Jiang Yang.

She was wearing a knitted cardigan over a tank top.

She wore high-waisted jeans, her hair was loosely tied back, revealing her slender neck.

Refreshing.

neat.

Holding a small canvas bag, she smiled and waved at Zhao Jinmai, then looked at Jiang Yang and asked curiously, "Why does Mai Mai call you Xiao Jiang? Logically speaking, shouldn't she call you Brother Yang? I see that Zhao Jinmai is very well-behaved in front of the camera, and she calls anyone older than her 'brother' or 'sister'."

Jiang Yang didn't answer immediately; he had been staying up too late and was a little slow to react.

I rubbed my eyes.

I was up all night with Meng Ziyi last night, and I'm really exhausted now.

His mental state is very poor.

Unlike Xiwei, Sister Meng was not shy. She fiddled around aimlessly and eventually fell asleep.

Sister Meng came on strong like a tiger from the very beginning.

Just as dawn was breaking, after finishing my fourth time, I went to the toilet to pee. I had just turned on the bathroom light when I thought someone was inside, so I went back to bed.

He is very tired now.

Sister Meng looked radiant.

Jiang Yang glanced at Zhao Jinmai, who was walking over quickly: "She's like this in private, you'll find out soon enough."

Is Mai Mai different in private than she is on camera?

"The difference is too great; she's just a girl from Northeast China." (End of Chapter)
