Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 100 Princess 99, it's time to sleep

Chapter 100, Page 99: Princess, it's time to sleep (4K)

When Lin Shaobai opened his eyes early in the morning, he found that his senior sister was no longer by his side.

I woke up in the morning to find that the person who was sleeping was gone.

Lin Shaobai slowly got up and called out, "Zhou Ye?"

"Sister?"

"anyone there?"

He called out three times but no one inside the house responded.

Lin Shaobai quickly called her again.

"Senior sister, where did you go?"

"Xiaolin? I'm out for a run."

The voice on the other end of the phone had a very distinct sound of running and breathing.

Step by step, I adjusted my breathing.

"No... It's rare for me to get up this early."

"Since I can't sleep anyway, I might as well go for a run."

"Are you awake again?"

"I did sleep for a few hours after you comforted me yesterday, but I didn't sleep very well. How about we get up and go for a run?"

As far as Lin Shaobai knew, Senior Sister Zhou Ye didn't seem to like sports much.

"Alright, Xiaolin, it's time for you to get up too!"

"I was just about to get up too, because I'm going to record a performance for Produce Camp today."

"Oh, well then, I wish you all the best."

"Um"

……

The show "Produce Camp" has already aired and become a huge hit, so the number of people signing up for this performance is exceptionally high.

In addition to the contestants' own fans, fans of the six celebrity seniors also bought tickets to attend.

Chen Siqi was lucky enough to be one of them.

Once inside, she discovered that most of the fans were Lin Shaobai's fans.

Everyone was holding banners in support of him.

It's supposed to be a competition like Produce Camp, so why does Lin Shaobai seem to have more fans?

Everyone held up sky-blue light boards and shouted Lin Shaobai's name.

"Lin Shaobai!!!"

"Xiao Lin!!!"

"Shaobai!!! I've come to see you!"

Even the students' fans marvel at Teacher Lin's appearance.

"My God, Lin Shaobai is so handsome."

"This is the first time I've seen him. He's so handsome."

"I'm almost a fan of Lin Shaobai, even though I'm a huge fan of Yueyi."

"Shouldn't Super Yue fans like Teacher Lin Shaobai even more? After all, Teacher Lin Shaobai seems to favor her."

Chen Siqi felt that she had many like-minded people around her.

Lin Shaobai appeared in the middle.

Before him appeared Hu Yitian, Xiao Zhan, Da Xun, Hua Xiong, and Zi Qi.

Hu Yitian is an actor; he doesn't sing a single song on stage, he just acts.

Like a mascot.

Xiao Zhan himself is a singer and dancer idol, so he was able to cooperate with Meng Meiqi on stage, chatting and laughing together.

Xiong Ziqi is practically a mascot.

Da Xunhua, your job is just to be funny.

The door slowly opened from the middle, and his handsome face was imprinted on the big screen.

The cheers at the scene were several times louder than before, and that face instantly captured the hearts of countless girls.

Hu Yanbing: "I have to say, Xiaolin is really handsome, his eyes are bigger than mine."

"My goodness! This young man is so handsome!" Teacher Ella exclaimed, covering her face in a daze!

The screams from below never stopped.

Just kidding, Lin Shaobai is the most popular and hottest top star in the entertainment industry today, a rising star born in the 95s!
Lin Shaobai stood in the middle of Yang Chaoyue's team and entered the venue with the other members of her team.

All six trainees were dressed in elegant and sophisticated black evening gowns.

Yang Chaoyue walked in the center position. As the team leader, she raised the microphone and spoke first.

"Hello everyone, we are the Fearless Youth Team. Our motto is: Fear nothing, Shao Bai will lead you to conquer the world!!"

Lin Shaobai could only stand in the middle and keep smiling with his eyes narrowed.

He had no idea about that slogan.

When did they come up with such a cringeworthy and childish slogan?

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Lin Shaobai!!!"

"Xiao Lin!!"

The mere mention of Lin Shaobai's name elicits screams from the audience; the fans are incredibly enthusiastic.

Yang Chaoyue: "The song we're going to perform is 'Living Up to Youth'."

Huang Zitao: "Are you ready?!"

“I’m ready!!”

The six trainees then stood in the previously designated positions.

The set design was quite beautiful, leaning more towards a Western fairytale world feel.

A thick fog enveloped everything.

"Don't admire the afterglow, don't grieve, and don't dwell on whether you did the right thing or not."

"That wine glass of youth still retains its most beautiful original flavor."

"Don't stop, don't back down, don't rush into the adult mud pile..."

After the music started, the other five teams sang one line at a time, but when it was Yang Chaoyue's turn, she was off-beat!

It was a very obvious mistake in timing.

Even a novice could tell she hadn't sung it correctly.

Lin Shaobai stood awkwardly at the back, not knowing what to say.

I finally remembered what Yang Chaoyue had said: she usually practiced very well in private and worked very hard, but she would sing or dance wrong as soon as she got on stage.

Could it be that he has stage fright?
Yang Chaoyue: "Go all out to pursue your dreams. Youth is too precious to waste. Take advantage of the bright spring sunshine and savor everything slowly."

She herself realized that she had sung off-key.

At that moment, feelings of shame, anger, depression, self-blame, and fear welled up inside me, and my eyes filled with tears.

Yang Chaoyue managed to hold back her tears at the crucial moment.

Otherwise it would be even more awkward.

Although the other members were shocked, they forced smiles and continued singing.

Lin Shaobai walked onto the stage as the song was about to end.

He stood at the highest point, picked up the microphone, and sang: "Don't admire the afterglow, don't grieve, don't dwell on whether what you did was right or wrong. That wine glass called youth, it retains the most beautiful original flavor."

"Ahhh, Lin Shaobai!"

"Xiao Lin!"

"Young Bai!"

The audience started screaming again.

Meanwhile, Ella and Hu Yanbing, sitting on the judges' panel, simultaneously turned to look at each other, their eyes seemingly saying, "Lin Shaobai's popularity is terrifying! What's the point of even playing this game?!"

The other trainees, including Meng Meiqi and Wu Xuanyi, who were watching Lin Shaobai's performance, immediately clutched their hearts, looking like their hearts were pounding.

"How come Teacher Lin sings so well?"

"Really. That's amazing. Every time I hear Teacher Lin sing, I feel calm down."

"If I had known, I would have chosen... cough cough, it's okay, actually our team's star senior is pretty good too."

After the performance, Lin Shaobai, Yang Chaoyue, and her teammates stood in a row.

Huang Zitao: "Thank you for your performance. Let me introduce myself."

At this moment, Lin Shaobai noticed that Yang Chaoyue was already crying.

I kept sniffling, trying my best to control myself.

Yang Chaoyue tried to hold back her tears.

We're filming a TV show right now, so we can't afford to embarrass ourselves!

After a while, the microphone was passed to her.

Yang Chaoyue: "Hello everyone, I'm Yang Chaoyue, who's fearless and upright. You guys chose this song for me, so I thought, please give me a little time, I'll sing that line for you." She said this while crying, and it was quite heartbreaking to watch.

Lin Shaobai frowned.

He discovered that Yang Chaoyue's fans felt sorry for her.

Yang Chaoyue must be feeling very guilty now for not doing a good job.

"One, two, three, give it your all!"

Despite trying very hard to sing, I was still off-key!
Thank you all!

Yang Chaoyue, fighting back tears, finished singing her line of lyrics and then bowed, saying, "I'm sorry everyone!"

Hu Yanbing and teacher Ella were moved to tears by this scene where the harder one tried, the more heartbreaking it became.

Ella: "Actually, what I wanted to say was, Chaoyue, it's okay, stay strong. You're amazing."

Yang Chaoyue: "Thank you, teacher."

The voting ended and the team left the stage.

Back in the backcourt, Yang Chaoyue was surrounded by several teammates wiping away her tears.

"It's finally over! The show's finally over!!"

Lin Shaobai stood to the side watching.

For Yang Chaoyue, the end of the show must have been a relief!

Lin Shaobai quickly returned to his private lounge.

A little while later, Yang Chaoyue, who was crying, knocked on his door.

"Teacher Lin, are you busy right now?"

Lin Shaobai turned to look at her.

He was the only one in the entire lounge now.

"Hmm. I'm not busy. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Teacher Lin, was my singing really off-key on stage back then?"

Yang Chaoyue is still troubled by this matter.

She couldn't forget so quickly.

Lin Shaobai: "It's quite serious, and you're very agitated."

"I know I'm excited. I feel so ashamed."

"It's okay, showing genuine emotion is also a kind of variety show effect. Your fans will still like you, and they won't hate you because of this. On the contrary, they will feel more sorry for you."

Lin Shaobai knew that there was a term called "torturing fans".

It refers to the empathy that fans feel when they see their idols experiencing a series of unfair treatments.

This is to motivate them to work harder on data collection for their older siblings.

Therefore, Lin Shaobai knew that after seeing Yang Chaoyue cry like that, the fans at the scene would definitely vote even more diligently.

Lin Shaobai: "There will indeed be many people who criticize you, but there will also be many people who love you. Those who love you are enough to propel you to a very high debut position."

Yang Chaoyue: "I know, I just want to be worthy of them."

"You do lack talent, and the time given by the production team is very short, not enough for you to surpass the top few people in these few days. So don't be too obsessed with it."

After Lin Shaobai finished speaking, he slung his bag over his shoulder and patted Yang Chaoyue on the shoulder: "Once a person becomes obsessed, they will live a very painful life. Sometimes, just doing your best is enough."

Assistant Xiao Liu walked in at that moment: "The boss has left. If we don't leave now, we'll miss our flight!"

The final exams at the Beijing Film Academy are coming up soon, so Lin Shaobai needs to hurry back and take one.

"Thank you, Teacher Lin!! Thank you for saying so much to me! You're a good person!"

Yang Chaoyue called out before leaving.

Her heart began to race; she had never felt this way before.

Yang Chaoyue realized that she might be developing feelings for Lin Shaobai.

In such a situation, with a tall, gentle, and handsome guy constantly comforting and encouraging her, how could she not be moved?!
But Yang Chaoyue also understood.

Her identity is completely different from Lin Shaobai's.

One is a top-tier celebrity right now, but what about the other?

A country girl?!

Yang Chaoyue sighed again as she thought about this.

……

Meanwhile, Lin Shaobai, after finishing recording the program, flew back to Beijing, and it was already evening.

After he returned, he specially invited Zhang Jingyi to his villa.

Zhang Jingyi had been reading a book ever since she entered the villa.

Or they're familiarizing themselves with the lines for the end-of-term performance.

He was so focused throughout that it seemed like he and Lin Shaobai were from completely different worlds.

Continuously familiarize yourself with the plot and the characters, and carefully try to understand why each character does what they do.

Sitting properly at their desks, they look like they're in their final year of high school, preparing for the college entrance exam!

Lin Shaobai had already taken a shower and put on his pajamas.

He crossed his arms and leaned against the bedroom door.

Zhang Jingyi happened to see Lin Shaobai while she was getting a drink of water, and then called him over.

"come here."

"Ok?"

"Come here for a moment, I need to talk to you."

"Cough cough."

Lin Shaobai straightened his pajama collar, put his hands behind his back, and walked over.

"I think we can do this when we're acting..."

Zhang Jingyi rambled on and on, mostly about acting.

Lin Shaobai was very depressed.

It's so late at night, and they're still discussing acting?
Is he a theater fanatic?!

Zhang Jingyi was focused on the script, while Lin Shaobai leaned down little by little, looking directly at her.

Zhang Jingyi hadn't noticed until Lin Shaobai's breath sprayed onto her face.

"You?" Zhang Jingyi slowly turned her head, almost able to kiss Lin Shaobai's lips.

"Why are you suddenly so close to me?"

"What do you say?"

Lin Shaobai kept leaning forward, while Zhang Jingyi turned her head back shyly.

"I'm having a serious discussion about the script with you. The final performance is tomorrow."

“But we’ve rehearsed this scene so many times, is there any need to keep harping on it? We’re not some bad students.”

"I... but I'm still very worried."

"I've practiced so many times... You can rest assured, I definitely won't mess up when I go on stage. The only thing to consider is what to do if you do mess up?"

"I wouldn't either! Am I that kind of person?" Zhang Jingyi blinked her eyes with great determination.

"Okay. Since neither of us will mess things up, let's go to sleep. Getting a good night's sleep is important for the final exams."

"..."

Zhang Jingyi looked at the books on the table again.

She also held a white ballpoint pen in her hand, which she quickly twirled three times.

"You're right, lack of sleep has a serious impact on exams. It can cause abnormal hormone secretion, making you prone to anxiety, irritability, and anger. Okay, I'll listen to you and go to sleep now."

Zhang Jingyi stood up: "Do you think what I said is right?"

Lin Shaobai's lips twitched.

How did this suddenly become science popularization?
The princess really does resemble a serious, old-fashioned cadre.

"Why are you staring at me like that?"

"I think you're kind of cute, genuinely cute."

"..."

Zhang Jingyi blushed upon hearing this.

"Is the learning finished now?"

"Um... um."

"Finally, I can hold you while I sleep?"

Lin Shaobai said with a smile.

Zhang Jingyi's face turned even redder.
