Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 390 Difficult to coax
In Shen Yujie's view, Shen Juan is a radiant, dreamlike, and gentle being.

From Shen Juan's perspective, Shen Yujie is a little fan who evokes many wonderful emotions in him.

Without a doubt, Shen Yujie's feelings for Shen Juan are much stronger than Shen Juan's feelings for Shen Yujie!

But Shen Juan still did what Xiao Shen loved to do.

From gentle, tentative kisses to deep, sweeping kisses, he continued until her legs went weak.

It's not that the lower house controls the upper house, or that the House of Commons controls the House of Lords. He simply felt that since the other party had mustered the courage to cross the entire Eurasian continent to come to England to meet him on his coming-of-age birthday, it would be inhumane to pretend to be a respectable person and not let him have his way.

Of course, he wasn't a decent person at all.

No wonder they didn't break up even after being criticized so harshly!
No wonder he kept talking back even when he was being scolded so fiercely!
No wonder they are so ruthless towards every woman who has cheated on her husband, and every woman who has the potential to become a woman who has cheated on her husband!

There are very few girls in this world who can resist this kind of multi-dimensional double enjoyment, combining physical and mental well-being, as well as material and spiritual benefits!

So her only thought right now is:
I really hate that I was born three years too late. If only I could have met Shen Juan earlier, become his classmate in college like Zhou Ye, or replaced Tian Jie in "So Cute Us," or joined Yuehua and became his colleague like Cheng Xiao, staying by his side.
I'm afraid I'll be able to enjoy this feeling sooner!
In short, after a long night of hard work, the London concert officially began at Wembley Stadium, which can hold 90,000 people.

The Leviathan Era tour's hardware facilities, stage aesthetics, and the singers' stage presence and vocal skills made the once somewhat arrogant and superior British people understand why it had such high ticket prices that were considered top-tier in this era, and why its average box office revenue was over $1200 million per show.

British celebrities from all walks of life posted on social media, sharing photos and videos, saying they attended Shen Juan's concert and called it the best concert of the year. They also described Shen Juan as a superstar with unlimited potential and no limit to his development.

BBC Headline: [Alex's Leviathan tour in London redefined the boundaries of stage aesthetics. At Wembley Stadium, he used holographic projection technology to cleverly blend the dragon from "Blinding Lights" with the Thames River night view, creating an epic dialogue between Eastern and Western aesthetics.]

The Guardian's music review column: [The Leviathan Era Tour is one of the greatest world tours of this century.]

The Times: [With single-show box office exceeding £1000 million and all merchandise sold out, Alex has proven with concrete data that cultural soft power is the true hard currency. Research shows that the Leviathan Era tour's London stop boosted surrounding hotels and restaurants by 23%, and the number of Chinese tourists visiting the UK in October surged by 41% year-on-year—the "Alex effect" is rewriting the economics of cultural tourism.]

Guest performer Ed Sheeran: [Alex's stage and music design inspired me so much. His professional attitude towards being a singer or artist exceeds many people's expectations. In my opinion, he and Taylor are the same kind of people; both want to excel in their respective fields.]

Guest performer Dua Lipa: [Alex is confident, sunny, energetic, charming, talented, and also gentle and humorous. He's so cool! He fulfills all my fantasies about men! If possible, I would love to collaborate with him, in any kind of collaboration.]

David and Victoria Beckham: "After taking Harper to Alex's concert, she's been asking us every day if we can take her to see Alex! Honestly, Alex's stage presence and charisma are incredible; young people these days are just so outstanding!"

Sadiq Khan, the Pakistani-born London mayor who is dedicated to winning over ethnic minorities, also joined in the fun: "Honestly, he made London's autumn nights even more dazzling than the Christmas lights! It's truly heartwarming to see so many people of different nationalities and skin colors gathered together for the same goal."

In addition, something interesting happened.

That was on the evening of the 11th, London time. After Shen Juan finished his first concert in London, he and Shen Yujie, who had just become an adult, were taking a walk along the Thames River when they were photographed by paparazzi who were still following them late at night. This not only made the headlines of the local entertainment news section but also became a trending topic on Twitter.

The news quickly sparked heated discussions among fan groups in China.

Since only Shen Juan was wearing a mask, resourceful netizens quickly identified the suspect:
Shen Yujie was born on October 11, 2001, in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. She is a freshman at the Beijing Film Academy in 2019.

Then, just a few months ago, she officially announced her signing with Starlink, and her social media account was exposed, showing that she was still a fan of Shen Juan.

Now everyone understood.

Another weary girl has appeared!
Moreover, she is a protégé of the Beijing Film Academy!
I don't know exactly how it was transmitted.

Anyway, now everyone in the fandom says that Shen Juan only dates female students from Beijing Film Academy and Shanghai Theatre Academy, and looks down on female students from the Central Academy of Drama.

So much so that as soon as the list of new students admitted to the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy was announced this year, netizens with nothing better to do started analyzing who among them was good-looking, who met Shen Juan's aesthetic standards, and who would be the first to enter Shen Juan's harem.

Although this was just a joke made by netizens, it did affect the Central Academy of Drama's admissions to some extent.

At least many pretty high school girls consider whether to enter the Beijing Film Academy when applying to art schools, so as to gain more attention during their freshman year and use this as leverage to lay a good foundation for signing with a brokerage company or becoming an internet celebrity in the future.

Meanwhile, many people say that with the establishment of the three superpowers and many strong forces and the gradual rise of new forces, it is time for the large-scale concubine selection reality show "Sister-in-law 101", which started last year, to be completely reshuffled and enter "Sister-in-law 202".

If we include the semi-publicly known Tian Xiwei, Cheng Xiao, and Zhou Ye (the BIG3), as well as the tacitly understood relationships of Nazha, Ni Ni, and Zhang Tianai, among others, as debut contestants of "Sister-in-Law 101," then the main contestant list for "Sister-in-Law 202" consists of this group of relatively unknown amateur female college students and minor celebrities from the entertainment industry:
Zhang Jingyi, a signed artist with Dong Shen Entertainment and suspected to be the mysterious sister-in-law of the 17 class of Beijing Film Academy, and Wang Churan, the "one-day girlfriend" of Guerlain who joined Starlink after terminating her contract with her former company, formed the "Jiaxing Sisters" through the MV of "Extraterrestrial Object" and "Back to Field" respectively. Dilraba and Zhu Xudan represented the eldest sister in the competition.

The group of ordinary women who signed up for Starlink were all high school girls. Among them was Song Zuer, a "recycled" girl, and her three roommates who signed up for Starlink (who maintained an ambiguous relationship with Shen Juan and introduced her roommates to Shen Juan, earning her the reputation of a madam, and young girls who wanted to get close to Shen Juan had to respectfully call her Sister Zuer).

In addition, there were the returning contestants from "Sister-in-Law 101", and in accordance with the principle of "better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free", celebrities who had interacted with Shen Juan in the same frame but for whom there was no clear evidence of a relationship were also included.

Thus, "Sister-in-law 202" successfully replaced "Sister-in-law 101" from the first year of the Wajuan Concubine Selection, becoming the hottest topic of discussion in the fan circle recently. The slogan "One vote from you, one vote from me, and Sister-in-law will debut tomorrow" has also been passed down.

Everyone wanted to rub salt into Sister Tian's wounds, trying to provoke her and bring more amusement to everyone.

It's a pity that things backfired.

Although Sister Tian does have a bit of a temper, she is clearly not as jealous or easily angered as they imagine.

On the contrary, Sister Tian is actually very easy to coax.

Of course, the premise is that,
Only Shen Juan could coax her.

As the autumnal breeze swept across the Thames embankment, Tian Xiwei stood in the shadow of the London Eye, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the metal charm on her canvas bag.

That was a small crescent moon that Shen Juan had secretly bought while she was strolling around Paris at the beginning of the month, and it was now shimmering with tiny spots of light in the morning light as she moved.

"Are you cold?" Shen Juan's voice came from behind, followed by a still steaming latte.

Tian Xiwei looked up at the slowly turning Ferris wheel. Couples kept emerging from the cabins, embracing each other. Considering that the little scumbag who loved to steal dogs wasn't around, she felt she could openly express her feelings, so she decisively replied, "It's cold, hurry up and hug me!"

Shen Juan was already used to Sister Tian's charming and innocent demeanor when no one was around, so he didn't say anything, but just smiled, took off his scarf and wrapped it around her neck. The light gray cashmere scarf, still warm from his body, buried half of her face in it. Then he hugged her tightly and held her close in his arms.

Tian Xiwei breathed in the pleasant scent of the scarf, and for some reason, she couldn't help but smile silently as she thought of something. This scumbag who always made her angry and constantly found new ways to cheat on her could always turn her anger into joy in his own way, and she could no longer get angry.

She didn't think she was too easy to coax.

Okay, she is a bit easy to coax.
She initially boarded the flight with the intention of catching Shen Juan cheating on her husband in the UK and settling scores with him. However, she never expected that after landing in London yesterday evening, he would abandon the 80,000 audience members present and personally pick her up at the airport like a fool, holding up a sign with the Chinese characters "Stitch".

They don't look like world-class superstars at all!
She also said that there was still about an hour before the concert started, which was plenty of time for him to come to the airport to see her.

There is enough time.

But would anyone actually make a special trip to the airport to pick up their girlfriend before a concert? What if the flight is delayed?
What if there's a traffic jam on the way?
Should we get off the bus and run to the venue?

Although he looks really good when he runs.
She really wished that the other protagonist in that running scene on the Brooklyn Bridge was herself, not Cheng Xiao.

But running will be very hard and tiring.

She didn't want Shen Juan to work too hard or get too tired.

But how could one possibly say these things out loud?
What if telling him gives him an inch and he takes a mile?
And this morning, when she opened her eyes in bed, stared at the unfamiliar ceiling, and saw that Shen Juan, who had brought her endless pleasure last night, had brought back breakfast, all her previous dissatisfaction vanished.

The warmth of the pumpkin porridge was still in her stomach when the man in front of her suddenly pulled out a small box that looked like it contained a ring from his trench coat pocket. The light blue ribbon bow was tied crookedly, and it was obvious that he had tied it himself.

This clumsy, scumbag man
"I thought you would give me the gift tonight." Tian Xiwei's fingers trembled slightly as she held the box.

London was blessed with a rare beautiful day. The warm sunlight slanted across the river, casting a hazy golden glow on Shen Juan's face. He looked down at the cruise ships on the Thames and chuckled softly, saying, "I was worried you wouldn't be able to wait!"

"I can't wait? How could that be?" Sister Tian retorted stubbornly, but immediately regretted it. She was worried that her words would affect Shen Juan's good mood, and couldn't help but secretly despise her strange personality.

When we first met, she wasn't like this at all. She was generous and cheerful back then. But as our relationship deepened, her little flaws or hidden personality traits were exposed one by one.

However, Shen Juan was completely unaffected. He was already used to his girlfriend's insincere words. He could just read her words in reverse. In fact, in a sense, Sister Tian was easier to understand than many people because she liked to express herself. As long as you mastered "Tian language", you could understand her meaning very well.

"Then I'll just say I couldn't wait any longer." He smiled and then urged the girl to look at the gift in his hand.

The moment the box was opened, Tian Xiwei's breath caught in her throat; the dazzling diamond ring refracted the light, creating a shimmering, starry effect.

Happy birthday, Xiaotian.

Shen Juan reached out and ruffled her round head, his voice as soft as ripples on a river, "When we were shopping on the Champs-Élysées, I saw this ring in a display case that was glowing, and I thought it would look really good on your hand."

After a moment of silence, Tian Xiwei muttered very softly, "Shouldn't you kneel on one knee when giving a diamond ring?"

"I'm not proposing," Shen Juan laughed.

"Isn't it?"

Xiao Tian was a little unhappy. Cheng Xiao, Zhou Ye, and even Yang Zi all got proposals, but I didn't. Even if they were all proposed to by you while acting or shooting music videos, I'm still not happy.

“A proposal should be a very formal occasion, not something so casual. This is just a simple birthday gift.” Shen Juan said, then suddenly remembered something and added with a smile, “Of course, if you wish, I will definitely make up for this ceremony in the future, if we are still together.”

"Don't talk nonsense that will ruin the mood!" Tian Xiwei had never even considered breaking up with Shen Juan. Anyway, she was stuck with Shen Juan for life, the kind of person who couldn't be shaken off no matter what.

"But nobody can predict the future." "I don't care, you are my future!"

After Tian Xiwei finished speaking, she stood on tiptoe and quickly pecked his cheek, which wasn't covered by his mask, and said with a smile, "I've accepted the gift, and I'm very happy."

The doors to the London Eye opened at that moment, and the staff, who were already used to couples showing affection, smiled and urged them to go inside.

Shen Juan stepped inside first, then turned around and reached out to protect the cabin ceiling, afraid that she might accidentally bump her head when she came in.

As the transparent capsule slowly rises, London, a city steeped in history and modernity, unfolds beneath your feet: the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral gleams with a creamy sheen, the glass curtain wall of The Shard reflects the blue sky and white clouds, and the Thames River, like a silver ribbon, divides the city into two halves, one light and one dark.

Looking down at London, Tian Xiwei suddenly recalled the words Shen Juan had said to her on the same day two years ago:
"It's not just Los Angeles that's experiencing rain."

"It's better to have quality friends than quantity. Miss Stitch, are your life choices limited to A, B, C, and D? It's 2 a.m. in LA. Am I a dead person answering your call?"

"Also, don't think I don't know why you're calling me in the middle of the night."

Happy birthday! Your gift should arrive soon, remember to sign for it.

Then she recalled their memories of filming together. One night, while waiting for their scene to be filmed, she was sleeping soundly on a bus seat, while Shen Juan sat next to her, making faces at the camera with his phone. The three characters "Tian Xiwei" were clearly written on the glass window behind them.

That day, the car window fogged up, and I wrote your name.

Tian Xiwei remembered this sentence again, so she also wrote Shen Juan's name on the fogged glass.

It's like suddenly eating an unexpectedly delicious candy during a dull, mundane, and boring day.

At that moment, his hand was on the back of her hand, the lines of his palm overlapping with hers, like a puzzle piece that should have been put together long ago.

When the cabin reached its highest point, it swayed slightly.

"The staff just told me that wishes made at the highest point are most effective," Shen Juan broke the silence and reminded me.

So Tian Xiwei immediately closed her eyes and began to make a wish.

After getting off the Ferris wheel, Tian Xiwei shook Shen Juan's hand vigorously. Shen Juan asked curiously, "What did you wish for?"

She looked up at him, her cheerful smile even brighter in the sunlight: "I can't say it, or it won't work!"

But after a pause, he couldn't help but add, "But it's related to you, or to be precise, it's related to the two of us."

Shen Juan smiled knowingly and said nothing more.

As the morning sun gradually brightened, they walked along the south bank to Boluo Market and had a simple meal.

The plane trees along the roadside were covered with leaves that looked like gold foil, and a street performer was playing the violin. The melody of "Canon" mixed with the aroma of roasted chestnuts gradually wafted through the air, making people feel comfortable.

Tian Xiwei suddenly stopped and took out a brown paper bag from her canvas bag, which contained the crepes she had just bought.

"Be careful of the burn."

She tore off a small piece and held it to Shen Juan's lips.

Shen Juan looked around. In the afternoon, there were only a few tourists watching the street performers. So he pulled his mask up and then opened his mouth to put her finger in his mouth as well.

The warm touch made Tian Xiwei freeze abruptly. She could clearly feel Shen Juan's tongue gently grinding the sugar granules on the pastry and her fingertips. The salty and sweet flavors spread the moment they touched, making her feel both shy and somewhat enjoyable. She subconsciously pulled her hand away, only to see him already smiling silently.

"Should we go to the exhibition or stroll in the park this afternoon?" Shen Juan stirred the scalding hot macaroni with a wooden fork, stretching the cheese into long strands, and asked calmly, pretending nothing had happened.

Feeling a mix of embarrassment, annoyance, and joy, Tian Xiwei viciously bit into the crepe in her hand, as if it were some important part of someone's body. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Let's go to Hyde Park to feed the swans! Strolling in the park is boring, and there are too many people at the exhibition. I'm worried that you'll be treated like an exhibit."

"Okay, it's up to you."

The swans in Hyde Park are not afraid of people at all. When Tian Xiwei was squatting by the lake tearing bread, a mute swan with a long neck swayed over and pecked at her palm with its red beak. Shen Juan stood behind her, his camera lens seemingly pointed at the lake, but he kept taking pictures of her smiling face.

"Taking pictures of me again?"

As Tian Xiwei turned her head, she happened to see him pointing the camera at her, and the screen captured the moment when she smiled and revealed her dimples.

"Did you secretly save hundreds of unflattering photos of me?"

He blinked, his eyes reflecting the warm autumn sun, and said very sincerely, "No, they're all beautiful."

"Really?"

"You don't have any embarrassing photos here."

"You pass!" Sister Tian curled the corners of her mouth slightly, clearly enjoying the compliment from her handsome boyfriend.

As the clock struck midnight, the two had returned to their hotel and stood side by side in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the London night view.

The lights of the London Eye flickered in the distance. Tian Xiwei leaned on Shen Juan's shoulder, watching the light and shadow flow across their clasped hands.

"The wish I made on the Ferris wheel today... I originally wanted to keep it to myself." She traced the lines on Shen Juan's palm with her fingertips, "But if I don't say it out loud, how will I know to try to make it come true?"

"Just say it. Wishes only have value if you say them out loud." Shen Juan didn't believe in making wishes; he only believed in himself.

"So I'll really tell you?" Tian Xiwei looked at Shen Juan with her big, bright eyes full of anticipation.

"Speak," Shen Juan said, mimicking her wink as if exchanging secret signals with her.

Seeing how adorable he was, Tian Xiwei couldn't help but smile, revealing her dimples. "I want you to be with me for every birthday from now on!"

"That's it?"

"That's it!"

After a moment of silence, Shen Juan reached out and pulled the girl, who only he knew how adorable she was, into his arms. He rested his chin on her shoulder and whispered, "I think, instead of making this wish and praying to God to grant it, you might as well just tell me directly, Tian Bao, don't you have any faith in me at all?"

"Yes, there is, but if I tell you everything directly, is that still making a wish? It would just be me making demands on you." Because she cherishes and values ​​this relationship so much, Xiaotian is unwilling to do anything that might affect their relationship.

Shen Juan could probably understand Xiao Tian's thoughts. After all, it wasn't hard to guess. When a couple's social status is too different, it can indeed make the person with the lower status worry and even feel inferior. Many people like to use this to manipulate their partners.

Although Shen Juan had no such intention and disdained to do so, in terms of results, quite a few girls would indeed become involuntarily humble in front of him. After all, his current value positioning is a dimensional reduction attack for everyone in the domestic entertainment industry, and the effect on ordinary people is even doubled.

Xiao Tian, ​​Xiao Ye, and Xiao Xiao were slightly better off; they had known Shen Juan since he was just a little Kalami.

But Song's roommate, as well as Xiao Shen and the other girls who met Shen Juan much later, all have this tendency.

He didn't have a good way to deal with this phenomenon.

The only way to correct and change this mindset is to spend more time together and gradually get things back on track.

So Shen Juan kissed Tian Xiwei's earlobe and said gently, "But you are my girlfriend, why can't you make requests of me? If you want to, just make them. If I can do it, I will. Besides, you have already made a wish to God for 22 years, why can't you make a wish to me just once?"

"Oh," Tian Xiwei replied softly.

“Haven’t you always envied Xiao Ye? Actually, I was planning to put on a grand fireworks display for you tonight, but the London authorities don’t allow fireworks,” Shen Juan said.

"It's ok."

Sister Tian felt that as long as she leaned against Shen Juan's chest, she would be warmed by him and become the ultimate soft and gentle girl!

Who has the mind to envy or be jealous of that green tea bitch Zhou Ye? No matter how beautiful the fireworks outside are, can they compare to Juan Juan?

"Actually, I just celebrated my birthday with another girl in London a few days ago. You probably saw the news, right?"

"It's ok."

Tian Xiwei had certainly heard about it, and had even been mocked by the group of fans of Jianzhong because of it, so she gritted her teeth for a while before finally managing to utter the last two words.

Since you confessed, I'll let this happen again!
However, countermeasures still need to be implemented effectively!
We'll definitely blew him up completely in the next couple of days!

This is the only way to prevent him from cheating on his wife outside the home!
"actually."

His voice gradually lowered, and then, with Sister Tian's active response, it transformed into a series of kisses falling on her hair, earlobes, cheeks, collarbone, chest, and other parts of her body. The kisses made the girl, who was gradually getting into the mood, feel distracted and confused, and she had no mind to think about anything else for the time being.

So since things have come to this, let's just flirt for now!

　Sorry, sorry. I've been busy with work these past few days and only have time to write after work. Plus, I had some writer's block today, so the update is much later than usual.
