Who said this top flow is crazy! This top flow is awesome!

Chapter 140 He's uncomfortable when I kiss him

A local specialty of Hangzhou is, of course, "West Lake Vinegar Fish".

But Chi Ye still had some conscience after all. He didn't take advantage of the two Hong Kongers too much. At 2:30 a.m., the three of them, plus their team of three, a total of dozens of people, found a quiet club, ordered some home-style dishes, and started chatting.

"You bastards! I think they just look down on us! They're both stupid idiots!"

As soon as Teacher Zeng entered the private room, she switched to "fragrant mode," her sweet words as if she had been smeared with Chi Ye's urine.

Teacher Wu, who was listening nearby, looked embarrassed and gestured for him not to "make a fool of himself" in front of Chi Ye.

Teacher Zeng waved his hand: "Since Xiao Chi and President Sui are cooperating and have that kind of relationship, how can they not be considered one of us?"

Chiye: "..."

He pretended not to hear, mainly because he didn't want to have much contact with Teacher Zeng.

Teacher Wu sighed and said, "Well, you're here to make money. It's normal for the Hong Kong entertainment circle to be like this now. Don't be so sensitive."

Teacher Zeng didn't say anything, but she was still seething with anger inside.

During the re-recording of "Actors, Please Take Your Seats," he originally wanted to get closer to big names in the Beijing entertainment circle, such as Jiang Kaige and Teacher Zhang.

Even if all else fails, it would be good to build a relationship with Li Qian, the princess of the Northwest circle.

As a result, he was met with a cold reception several times. Given his personality, the fact that he managed to refrain from cursing on the spot shows that he already knew what kind of person he was.

Ok…

Hong Kong's entertainment industry has indeed been declining in recent years, even more so than Taipei.

Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have gone to the mainland to appear on various variety shows... Do they enjoy appearing on variety shows?
They just don't have any good roles to play and they like Mi'er!
In today's Hong Kong entertainment circle, apart from the top few super big names who are well-known across Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, artists of Mr. Wu's caliber are in a very awkward position.

But they are still considered lucky, because they can make money by leveraging their past fame and connections.

Even worse off are the artists and staff who are less famous and have lower status than them.

That was truly tragic; quite a few people had to switch careers.

A dinner party was spent in the middle of the night, with Teacher Wu persuading Teacher Zeng to urinate.

Chi Ye also chatted with Teacher Wu about "The Boss" for a while.

When are you planning to join the crew?

"I still have a drama series to work on, which will have to wait until it's finished filming."

"It's alright, please give me your guidance then."

"Please give me more advice."

After Ikeno finished speaking, the two were about to part ways.

But then Teacher Wu suddenly thought of something. Perhaps he felt that Chi Ye wasn't as "hateful" as the rumors in the industry suggested, and that he was also impatient and straightforward. So he pulled him aside and asked, "By the way, there's something I'd like to ask you."

Ikeno asked curiously, "What?"

"That's right, I've taken on a few more variety shows."

Teacher Wu smiled shyly.

Chi Ye was even more shocked: "What happened to my brother? Did he really gamble?"

Teacher Wu laughed and said, "Don't be silly, I just like money."

Chiye: "..."

That's definitely direct.

Seeing his expression, Teacher Wu didn't mince words and asked directly, "Didn't you work with Huang Jianfeng and Lü Xiaoming before?"

"They invited me to that 'Chinese Restaurant' show, but I'm not really familiar with those two people..."

"Is Teacher Huang going to 'Chinese Restaurant'?"

Chiye was stunned.

"Yeah, didn't you know? I thought they would invite you."

Teacher Wu gestured: "Maybe we can go together then."

Chi Ye shook his head: "No, I will not go to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital."

"Oh, you're not going... huh?" Teacher Wu was taken aback: "The Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital? Traditional Chinese... Haha, you're so cool!"

Chi Ye shook his head again: "If you really want to go, my suggestion is to buy a tongue cover on Taobao and try to talk as much as possible."

"why?"

"Because you talk more and eat less."

Xiao Liu had already driven over. Upon seeing this, Chi Ye grasped Teacher Wu's hand and said, "Uncle, I hope we can meet safely on the set of 'The Boss'!"

Teacher Wu laughed: "I've said it many times, call me brother."

"Brother, come back alive."

Chi Ye waved his hand and got into the car, leaving Teacher Wu, whose face was full of surprise and uncertainty, standing there hesitating.

"Tongue cover... there are such things?"

"Assistant, go search and buy me some..."

……

In the car.

Chi Ye rubbed his temples, unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and asked, "Has Coco verified it?"

"It's been verified."

Xiao Liu turned around and said softly, "Master Zhuang did indeed get some photos. Yue Na transferred him to the artist department. He accidentally discovered it in the hotel while helping Ji Heming with the proxy bidding."

"Oh."

Chi Ye thought to himself, "This kid knows how to have fun."

"...He is not a good person."

"Yes, he is a corpse man."

Chi Ye nodded and yawned again: "Help me get the blanket. I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when we get to the airport. I promised to say good morning to Xia Xia."

"it is good."

……

at the same time.

A star-rated hotel in Hengdian.

Wearing a bathrobe, Ji Heming gestured to his female companion to be quiet. Holding the phone, he excitedly shouted to Li Qian on the other end, "Qianqian, I really like you! Those things are all fake. Chi Ye made them up to smear me. You can't break up with me for such unfounded reasons!"

On the other end, Li Qian had just finished a gathering with Jiang Kaige and Teacher Zhang, and was a little tired: "Didn't I block you? Where did you get my new number?"

"Sissi... I really can't live without you."

Ji Heming composed himself, his eyes slightly red: "I sent you a picture text message. Look, those were taken when we were together. So many loving moments. You really won't listen to my explanation at all?"

Li Qian glanced at the text message; it was a photo of her and Ji Heming when they first got together.

At that time, on the beach, she was laughing, and he was making a fuss.

She shook her head, slightly saddened: "True love is something you can't capture on film."

Ji Heming panicked and blurted out instinctively, "But it's done well!"

Li Qian: "?!"

"Uh...no, I mean..."

"You scoundrel, you scum, get out!"

With a cold face, Li Qian hung up the phone directly. Still not satisfied, she pulled out the SIM card, broke it into pieces, and threw it out the window.

"Compared to you, even a gigolo like Ikeno is a hundred times better than you."

……

the next day.

Ikeno, who had been living off his wife, returned to his "kept woman's nest."

The Empress Dowager is still busy with promotional activities and will probably not be able to return to the set until tomorrow.

Chi Ye spent the day filming his own scenes. At the same time, he also contacted Teacher Shi privately, planning to go and see her (the lottery) sometime.

In fact, he still has 50 million points of affection left, which he originally planned to use to extract skills from Teacher Zhang.

But considering that Teacher Zhang knows a lot, he was also afraid of wasting it—and that waste could amount to ten million!

Therefore, he plans to wait and see if there are any new or more suitable mentors joining the show in the future.

And so, another day passed. The next day, the Empress Dowager returned to the set, and filming of "My Love from the Star" proceeded smoothly.

the other side.

Backstage at a popular music video show.

Stevie sat quietly in the chair, not checking her phone, not watching the commotion, just sitting there blankly—waiting for dinner.

She has already finished recording this episode of the music variety show, but she has been waiting here because her manager, Sister Wang, is dealing with some matters.

after an hour.

Sister Wang hurriedly returned, bringing two large bags of cooked food and carbohydrates for Stevie.

"Here, I know you've been waiting impatiently, eat up."

Sister Wang handed it over, and Teacher Shi's almond-shaped eyes lit up when she saw the two large bags of food. She took them smoothly and started showing off as soon as she opened the lunchbox.

"...Eat slowly, it's like I'm not feeding you at all."

Sister Wang muttered something to herself, but a smile remained on her face.

Since Stevie and Ikeno collaborated on "Light Years Away" and "Rose in the Palm" on "The Voice of Heaven", Stevie's stagnant career has taken a turn for the better.

The former, in particular, with her explosive performance and singing style that perfectly suited her, provided Stevie with unimaginable help and encouragement.

During that period, "Light Years Away" directly climbed to the top five, and even the number one spot, on the monthly TOP charts of KuTing and NetEase Cloud Music.

Although she lost to Teacher Han in the final "Voice of Heaven", this is the most normal phenomenon. She was not disappointed because of this. On the contrary, she was full of energy and gradually regained the feeling of being at the height of her popularity.

The family's financial situation improved because of this incident.

My elder brother, sister-in-law, and mother don't need to go back to their hometown; they can stay in Beijing. My little nephew can also go to school without worry.

Stevie was so grateful to Ikeno that she refused to share the copyrights of "Light Years Away" and "The Rose in the Palm of My Hand".

Hmm... The company is in a hurry, and Ikeno's side is in a hurry too.

That song was sung by two people. If you were given a song, you would take it, but if you didn't, you would keep pulling on it, making it impossible for us to work, you know?
In the end, it was Chi Ye who learned of the situation and made a very forceful phone call to Teacher Shi, which resolved the issue perfectly.

Now, Ikeno has come to "collect interest".

"Mr. Chi... Mr. Chi is coming over?"

Sister Wang asked hesitantly.

"Ah."

Teacher Shi was eating wildly, her head down, with no one else around.

The child is starving.

"So...is he going to sign you?"

Sister Wang paused for a moment, then said, "I heard he wanted to sign you last time..."

Teacher Shi raised her head, her almond-shaped eyes sweeping over the agent: "No contract signed."

"Um...um...I know."

The agent lowered his voice: "But I was thinking of switching jobs too... This small company is boring, maybe I should go to Ikeno's..."

Teacher Shi paused for a moment, then lowered her head and continued eating.

"Hey, stop talking like that, say something!" The manager was getting impatient. "With Chi Ye's talent, you would definitely be even better off if you went there. Why don't you go?"

Stevie remained silent, because she knew her agent understood.

"...Ugh, it's just about the harmonic imaging. Ikeno isn't even afraid of Yueka now, why would he be afraid of harmonic imaging? Are you stupid?"

"Look, how about this? While they're here, why don't you mention it to them first, and see..."

Sister Wang was spitting as she spoke.

There was a click.

The door was pushed open.

The assistant that the small company had assigned to Teacher Shi walked in, carrying a bouquet of flowers.

"Ok?"

Sister Wang was taken aback, then looked displeased: "This flower...?"

"It's been delivered again."

The assistant spread his hands.

The two of them looked at Stevie Wonder.

Teacher Shi thought about throwing it away, but then felt it was a pity. After thinking for a moment, she said softly, "It would be a waste to throw it away. Just like last time, give it to Xiao Zhang's daughter. She loves flowers the most."

Xiao Zhang is an ordinary employee of their company. His youngest daughter has congenital heart disease and is currently hospitalized.

"……it is good."

The assistant nodded.

Stevie paused. "Also, tell them to stop sending flowers. I don't want to be in a relationship unless... someone can take a punch from me."

Everyone: "Huh?"

Seeing everyone's reaction, Teacher Shi felt a little guilty and realized it wasn't "safe" enough, so he quickly added, "That...it's not one punch...um...ten punches!"

Everyone: "..."

You don't actually need to add anything, one punch is enough.

Ten punches? There's no need to chase after someone after they've restarted!
……

More than half a month passed in a flash.

The show "Actors, Please Take Your Seats" encountered a bit of an awkward situation—after the first episode was recorded, there was a problem with the review process, so the second episode has been delayed until now.

However, Ikeno wasn't in a hurry.

Filming for "My Love from the Star" is now more than halfway done. The adjustment period between Hong Kong/Taipei and Director Liu's team is over, and while the pace has accelerated, the quality remains high.

this day.

Ikeno got up very early and brushed his teeth and washed his face early, looking very serious.

—We can't help but be serious. Today, "My Love from the Star" finally brings us to the first kiss scene between Ikeno and Jin Xia.

In fact, there are many kissing scenes in "My Love from the Star", which should have been filmed long ago.

But whether intentionally or unintentionally, it has been delayed until now, and only now has it finally come to fruition.

Chi Ye looked at himself in the mirror. His face was flawless, his eyes were deep and seemed to speak, and his nose was high and straight, a rare and excellent bone structure in the Chinese entertainment industry.

He winked at himself in the mirror, then suddenly remembered Teacher Shi's "little trick" and shouted, "Chi Ye, do your best!"

at the same time.

In a hotel room next to the filming location of "My Love from the Star".

She didn't get up early this summer; well, she barely slept all night and got up at three in the morning.

This is extremely rare for her, because the Empress Dowager had a very healthy lifestyle and was a rare example of "early to bed and early to rise" in modern society.

There's no denying that. Ikeno has said several times, "You'll definitely outlive me."

I've just received a "grand gift" from the Empress Dowager's anger; it took a full three seconds for us to make up, which is truly serious.

now.

The Empress Dowager sat upright in front of the makeup mirror, refusing to have her makeup done by the team's makeup artists or the professionals from the "My Love from the Star" crew.

Instead, she carefully and meticulously applied her makeup.

Her makeup skills are actually very good because she has an artistic background. She is proficient in various artistic skills that a girl should have, such as sculpture, painting, music, and dance.

—After all, she's the kind of girl who can do makeup for her cat and apples!

But today, no matter how she draws it, she is not satisfied.

In the end, as expected, she "started acting".

"Oh no, this CHANEL foundation won't do, I want By Terry's! Go buy it for me right now!"

"Remember, it has to be Fair beige #1. It's a pinkish shade that's on the whiter side, and that's where my makeup looks best."

"And this TF lipstick, the moisturizing and shine are so much worse... I tried it myself, the texture isn't good, I'm switching, I want Guerlain..."

Honey looked at the makeup artist with a wry smile and helplessness, and walked over with a smug look on her face: "What you want is either a limited edition or needs to be air-freighted over, how can it be so fast?"

"I tried them all and none of them worked. They're not as pretty as the other ones... That lipstick feels uncomfortable to kiss... I don't want to use it!"

This summer, she felt wronged yet "justified": "I just want to be prettier, so what?"
