Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 185 - Introducing Liu Yifei to Bai Ye!

"Sisi, your godmother told me she wants me to act as a matchmaker for you?"

inside the room.

Liu Yifei had just finished showering when she received Shu Chang's call, and she was completely numb.

I had just finished talking to Liu Xiaoli. I thought Liu Xiaoli was just saying it casually, but who would have thought that my mother would actually go to find Shu Chang.

"Changchang, just leave this alone. My mom just had a sudden urge!"

Liu Yifei was actually aware that she and Bai Ye didn't know each other, so how could she introduce them?

Besides, why should I take the initiative to get to know them?

She does have a bit of an air about her.

If you happen to run into someone on some occasion, it's fine to take the initiative to get to know them. But if you haven't even seen their face yet, how can you shamelessly ask to get to know them? Liu Yifei isn't that low.

"You can't say that! There's nothing wrong with getting to know my crush. Let me tell you, if you want to get to know him, what should I say when I ask you out next time?!"

"You?" Liu Yifei asked incredulously after hearing Shu Chang's words, "No?! You know him?"

How come she didn't know that Shu Chang and Bai Ye had been in contact?

It seems there's absolutely no overlap in their business dealings!

"Sissi, actually, we should have met a long time ago, but right now, it's still a bit lacking."

"What does that mean? What does that mean? I don't understand."

As Shu Chang continued talking, Liu Yifei became increasingly confused.

At first, she said she could arrange to meet Bai Ye, but then she said it was almost true. Perhaps Shu Chang is a little too eager to meet Bai Ye, so she's a bit mentally unstable?
Isn't it supposed to be fans' love for their idols?!
Not so much
"Sissi, I landed a supporting role in Bai Ye's new drama, 'My Love from the Star.' I was planning to tell you about it later, but since we've already brought it up, I'm not sure."

I'll just tell you straight up, I'll get to meet my idol! Once we get to know each other, I can act as a matchmaker for you and your crush, right?!

Shu Chang originally wanted to wait and talk to Liu Yifei later.

Filming was about to start, but the schedule was changed because of Bai Ye, which is why Shu Chang said they already knew each other.

"You're going to play a supporting role?"

"I get to act alongside my idol! And I'm not like you now; it's so hard for me to get a lead role!"

Shu Chang herself doesn't know why, even though she feels that her acting roles are not limited and she is constantly breaking through.

But I feel like I'm getting fewer and fewer leading roles.

She could sense that her popularity was declining.

In the early 2000s, although her popularity couldn't compare to Liu Yifei's, it wasn't far behind.

But things are different now; now we're far behind Liu Yifei.

She had auditioned for the role before, even though it was just a supporting role. Partly because she thought it would be nice to act alongside her idol, and partly because her popularity was declining.

She didn't have much to complain about, and besides, didn't everyone in the industry always believe that a collaboration between Superstition and Bai Ye could be successful?!
"So what have you been up to lately?"

"Why would I need to rest? The schedule was changed, and I'm so bored at home. How about I come visit you tomorrow?!"

"Okay, the filming of The Legend of the Feast at Hongmen has wrapped up, so I guess there won't be much to do for a while."

Liu Yifei didn't refuse; she was quite bored at home anyway.

If Shu Chang came to find him, at least the two of them could chat.

The two chatted until late at night before hanging up to rest.

the next day.

Shu Chang rushed to Liu Yifei's house in the evening.

"Where's my godmother? Isn't she home?"

Shu Chang looked around, and then, after realizing that Liu Xiaoli was no longer there, she hugged Liu Yifei tightly, sniffed her nose, and said, "Qianqian, you smell so good!"

"Changchang, be serious."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes, while Shu Chang, standing beside her, said nonchalantly, "Qianqian, I'm just telling the truth, the fairy sister is just so fragrant~"

"cough!"

Before Liu Yifei could say anything, a light cough instantly brought Shu Chang back to her senses, and her intelligence once again took over.

He looked at Liu Xiaoli, who was staring at him with a strange expression.

Shu Chang is numb.

no? !
Isn't this right? !
Shu Chang raised her head, looking at Liu Yifei with tears welling up in her eyes.

Didn't they say Liu Xiaoli wasn't there?!

Seeing her like this, Liu Yifei returned a glance, and secretly wanted to laugh. It was just that Shu Chang had been talking to herself the whole time, but Liu Xiaoli had been there all along, she just hadn't had a chance to speak yet.

She took the initiative first.

This is a classic case of being caught red-handed!

"Godmother."

As Shu Chang spoke, she didn't dare to look at Liu Xiaoli; she was genuinely too embarrassed to look at her.

Did Liu Xiaoli think I was a pervert for acting like a lovesick girl just now?!
"Singing, I don't know much about you young people's affairs, but you should still be careful about what you say."

"Yes, you're right, godmother!!"

Shu Chang nodded seriously; it was clear that the other person had given her a way out.

Liu Yifei, who was standing to the side, also felt like laughing.

Shu Chang is really right~
"Have you eaten?! Would you like your godmother to make you something, and cut some fruit for you too?!"

"No need, godmother. I brought food. We can watch TV together!"

As she spoke, Shu Chang picked up the bags in her hand.

These were all just bought; they're snacks and fruits that Liu Yifei and I like to eat.

She had already eaten when she arrived.

I originally planned to come over for dinner, but I stayed in bed the whole time and didn't get up.

She ate a few bites afterward, then bought a lot of snacks and fruit, thinking that there was a show she was looking forward to tonight, so of course Shu Chang was going to save her appetite for the evening.

"Wow?! Singing, are you not going to maintain your figure anymore?"

It seems like Shu Chang is going to join a production team soon?
I bought so many things that are bursting with heat
Liu Yifei swallowed hard.

Um.
How could I possibly dare to say anything about Shu Chang?!

It seems like I'm the one who can't control my mouth.

"Hehe, today's a day of indulgence, but that doesn't mean we have to eat and drink too much. Look, I even bought your favorite fruit tea. Let's watch TV first tonight, and then have a good chat~"

Shu Chang chuckled and took out the items one by one.

With each item she took out, Liu Yifei's breathing became heavier.

These are all foods I like to eat!
Damn~
Shu Chang is trying to get herself killed!

Liu Xiaoli, who was standing next to them, couldn't help but chuckle as she watched the two of them, even though she knew that she would probably gain weight after eating this meal.

But she didn't stop it.

After all, it's fine to eat out once in a while. Having a meal and chatting with good friends can relieve some stress.

Liu Yifei has relatively few friends in the entertainment industry.

On the one hand, Liu Yifei doesn't really like socializing, and on the other hand, Liu Xiaoli occasionally interferes.

Liu Xiaoli has been keeping a close eye on any male celebrities who want to get close to her.

As for female celebrities, she doesn't have many restrictions, but Liu Yifei herself is a bit arrogant, and given that some people have different personalities, it's naturally difficult for them to get together.

"By the way, where's Liangying? Why didn't you invite her to come along?"

Shu Chang sat on the sofa, arranged her things, and asked curiously.

"She's working and probably won't have time lately. I'll call everyone together when she's free later."

"Oh, let's watch Happy Camp together today! Which episode is my crush on?"

Shu Chang nodded and didn't dwell on the matter.

She and Zhang Liangying have a normal friendship, and it is because of Liu Yifei that their relationship is better than that of ordinary friends.

"Your idol? Bai Ye, right?"

Liu Xiaoli was originally not going to say anything and was about to leave, so she gave up the living room.

The two younger people were chatting here, but she didn't really have much to say.

After talking about Bai Ye, Ke Shuchang had something to say.

She called Shuchang yesterday to ask about the situation.

"Yes, godmother, do you want to watch it together?!"

"At my age, why would I watch Happy Camp?"

She's actually old enough to watch, but it's more entertainment-oriented, so Liu Xiaoli doesn't usually watch it. However, with Bai Ye involved, she's actually a little tempted, mainly because she wants to know more about him.

If her personal morality wasn't up to par, she still wouldn't allow her daughter to have any contact with Bai Ye.

After all, isn't this tantamount to throwing lambs to the slaughter?!
"It's okay, godmother. This show is suitable for all ages!"

"Yes, Mom, there's so much food, let's eat it all together. We can watch and eat at the same time. The two of us can't finish it all, and it would be a waste!"

After Shu Chang and Liu Yifei exchanged words, Liu Xiaoli finally agreed.

Sitting next to Liu Yifei, Shu Chang also turned on the TV and switched to Hunan TV.

After the commercials, the program begins.

After He Jiong's introduction, when Bai Ye and Tang Yan appeared together, a heart-shaped special effect instantly surrounded the two of them.

Wow~ My crush is so versatile!

Last time she was with Jing Tian, ​​and this time she's with Tang Yan. Shu Chang feels that Bai Ye can get along well with anyone.

"Sing a song! Maybe you two can sing together next time!"

Liu Yifei munched on a braised duck foot and then made a joke.

"I'll pass. The next time we appear together, it will only be when the female lead and the male lead are together, not when I'm not."

"By the way, isn't Yang Mi the female lead in that drama?"

The male and female leads of "My Love from the Star" have already been announced, and Liu Yifei isn't blind; of course she saw it.

The pairing of Yang Mi and Bai Ye.

When she thought of Yang Mi, she thought of the time when they were in The Return of the Condor Heroes.

To be honest, she and Yang Mi didn't actually have much interaction.

Although we know each other, our relationship is not deep, or rather, not very close.

"Yes, she's pretty good."

The person who was holding an umbrella for Liu Yifei back then, the person who was ridiculed by the media as a maid, has now climbed to a top-tier position.

Shu Chang also thinks Yang Mi is quite amazing.

What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. Liu Yifei didn't think much of it, but Liu Xiaoli next to her was quite different.

She was thinking about what Yang Mi and Liu Yifei had gone through.

If Yang Mi were to rise to the top now, she would inevitably compete with Liu Yifei again, and those media outlets that previously criticized Yang Mi might use that same material to criticize Liu Yifei.

Moreover, their positions are actually quite similar.

Or rather, the positioning of female celebrities is largely the same, and competition between them is inevitable when it comes to securing commercial resources.

And there's also a little Liu Yifei eyeing him covetously.

Liu Xiaoli's originally calm heart suddenly became a little restless.

"Changchang, if you have the chance later, check out Bai Ye. If he's alright, you can introduce him to Qianqian."

Liu Xiaoli has never been one to hold back her emotions.

Once she had an idea, she said it.

With the competition so fierce right now, this is clearly an opportunity; it would be a shame to miss it!

"mom!"

Liu Yifei sighed. What on earth is this all about?!

"Meet more outstanding people and learn from their experience. Besides, you are all in the same industry, so you have things to talk about. You are not bad either."

Aren't you more popular than Yang Mi and Liu Shishi?!
If the two of you work together, wouldn't that be a powerful combination?!

Although Liu Xiaoli could hear the emotions in Liu Yifei's tone.

But in her view, there was no need to run away from this matter at all.

In her opinion, is her daughter no better than Yang Mi or Liu Shishi?!

Yang Mi was holding an umbrella for her daughter back then, while Liu Shishi debuted as "Little Liu Yifei".

How could those two possibly compare to his daughter's popularity!

How could he possibly be better than his own daughter?!

She certainly felt that if possible, it would be better to have her daughter cooperate with Bai Ye, which would be a powerful alliance!

She used to worry that Bai Ye would be a burden to her daughter, but now she thinks he's qualified!
At least for now, it's not too bad.

Fortunately, when she rejected Bai Ye's collaboration offer, she didn't offend him and her refusal was quite tactful. So, in her opinion, there must still be opportunities for collaboration.

"Godmother, don't worry, leave this task to me!!"

Shu Chang made a salute gesture, and with that one sentence, she directly took on the task herself.

Watching the two of them settle the matter one after the other, Liu Yifei opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say anything.

It seems like it wouldn't do me any harm?

What am I against?
Although Liu Xiaoli had previously shown some resistance to cooperating with Bai Ye, this was only shown in front of him.

Bai Ye didn't realize that just because someone was popular, he was joining in, which was somewhat inappropriate.

But she felt that Liu Xiaoli was right; this could be considered a powerful alliance, right?

Liu Yifei maintained a cool and aloof demeanor on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil.

She didn't think about it anymore. After that, Liu Xiaoli stopped talking about the topic, and Shu Chang went to watch TV.

When Bai Ye skillfully defused a sharp question during the "Who to save?" segment, choosing Tang Yan but emphasizing friendship.

Shu Chang said with a hint of regret, "I knew it!!"

She had previously harbored a mischievous thought that it would be better to choose Liu Shishi or Yang Mi.

Although she guessed it, the show's strategy was probably to select Tang Yan.

However, there was always some expectation, but now that hope has been completely extinguished.

"He made the right choice. If he hadn't chosen Tang Yan, things would have gotten much worse!"

After Liu Xiaoli finished speaking, she nodded in approval of his emotional intelligence.

Choosing either Liu Shishi or Yang Mi could potentially lead to scandals.

It would also make Tang Yan feel very awkward here.

Whether Bai Ye truly wants to choose Tang Yan or one of the other two, he must choose Tang Yan.

just
Watching Bai Ye and Tang Yan's ambiguous interaction, just like Tang Yan blushing when she looked at Bai Ye.

Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but frown. She was also a little worried about Bai Ye's private morality and would have to remind Liu Yifei later.

You should be careful when you come into contact with Bai Ye.

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Liu Yifei and sighed. She had protected her daughter too well.

She didn't notice Liu Xiaoli watching her; she was somewhat drawn to the humorous responses in the variety show "White Night," especially admiring his wit in extemporaneously resolving Tang Yan's slip of the tongue.

This episode was quite good, and most importantly, the show was entertaining, with sweet interactions between the two.

On Hunan TV, every time the two had a sweet interaction, they would add some heart-shaped special effects and then play some ambiguous music.

He pursed his lips slightly when he saw Bai Ye and Tang Yan's tacit understanding, but quickly regained his composure.

It's really cute!
"Changchang, did you say that song 'Anhe Bridge' was written for Tang Yan?!"

Liu Yifei asked with some curiosity.

If this interaction between the two was staged, their acting skills are simply amazing!

She thought of Anhe Bridge, which was released yesterday and has now climbed to the top of the trending songs chart.

Liu Yifei also listened to it, and it really was very nice.

She's heard it several times today, at least.

Shu Chang sat up from the sofa. She had just laughed so hard she fell off the sofa when she saw the game segment, especially finding the hiccup sound effect amusing.

After Liu Yifei asked that question, she immediately regained her composure and said, "I don't think so. It seems that Tang Yan has some feelings for Bai Ye."
My intuition as a woman tells me that Tang Yan's performance was definitely not an act.

But for Bai Ye, there shouldn't be any problems.

He has a great sense of humor and variety show presence. Didn't he take good care of Jing Tian when I watched Happy Camp last time?

So I think he probably doesn't.
Hey Sisi, look how amazing my crush is! He's so caring. It would be such a shame to miss out on working with him.

Then I'll scout things out for you. If things go well, I'll try to set you up when I'm filming "My Love from the Star"!

Although Liu Yifei glared at her, Shu Chang didn't stop talking.

The main issue is Liu Xiaoli; judging from her expression, she seems to have tacitly agreed.

As for Liu Yifei...

She figured she probably wouldn't object, it would just be a facade of modesty.
