Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 278, Section 277: Zhou Ye: It seems I've come at the wrong time (4K)

"long time no see."

Before the live broadcast of the TV series promotion officially started, Lin Shaobai and his classmate Xiao Zhang stayed in the lounge.

Lin Shaobai was filming "All In" on Hainan Island for a very long time, and he got even more tanned.

Too white, too refreshing, too clean—it didn't quite fit the environment at the time.

Zhang Jingyi looked closely at Lin Shaobai's face.

Looking at Lin Shaobai with this tan... he seems even more handsome now.

Zhang Jingyi immediately snapped out of her reverie after having this thought.

That's so strange. Can you really like someone just by looking at their face?

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over.

Zhang Jingyi, oh Zhang Jingyi, you really do like her a lot.

The way Xiao Zhang was staring so intently at Lin Shaobai's face made even Lin Shaobai himself feel that something was amiss.

Being stared at like that without saying a word is really creepy.

"Zhang... um?"

Lin Shaobai was about to call out Xiao Zhang's name when he didn't expect the other person to reach out and touch his face.

Zhang Jingyi gently placed her hand on Lin Shaobai's cheek and lightly rubbed it with the pad of her thumb.

She said gently, "I really miss you, so much, so much."

Just as they were getting into the mood and wanted to kiss, a staff member suddenly knocked on the door: "Teacher Lin, Teacher Zhang's live stream is about to start!"

Zhang Jingyi immediately withdrew her hand, pretending that nothing had happened.

This might be the fastest she's ever done.

They were clearly in a normal relationship, but it felt like they were having an affair.

My chest heaved up and down; I was so startled by that sudden movement that my breathing became disordered.

Seeing how nervous Xiao Zhang was, Lin Shaobai reached out and patted her back in an annoyed tone: "Are you alright?"

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head shyly and smiled embarrassedly: "It was too, too sudden, a little scary."

"Alright, shall we go, Princess?"

Lin Shaobai deliberately used a nickname that was quite fitting for his classmate Xiao Zhang recently.

During the popular broadcast of "Ignite Me, Warm You," the word "princess" became inseparable from Xiao Zhang.

The show became so popular that fans started calling Zhang Jingyi "Princess".

Fans of the drama have extended this nickname to real life, as her own temperament also fits the image of a "princess."

People just chat casually online without any particular feeling, but talking about it up close like this makes me a little shy and embarrassed.

Zhang Jingyi coughed twice and then looked at Lin Shaobai with a smile: "Cough, okay, let's go."

After the live broadcast started, the main actors kept waving to the camera.

Lin Shaobai had been filming for the past few months, as if he had disappeared.

Many fans hadn't seen him in a while, so when he suddenly started a live stream, everyone was eager to watch and rushed over to see it.

So much so that the live stream was so choppy it resembled a PowerPoint presentation.

The lead actors were all aware of Lin Dingliu's terrifying popularity.

Zhang Jingyi seemed to have long been used to this situation.

After a while, when the lag eased a bit, people started reading the comments.

[Lin Shaobai, long time no see!!]

【Kobayashi! I love you!】

[Li Xun is super handsome! When are you going to dye your hair blonde again?!]

[Princess, princess, princess, princess, princess, princess!]

[Jing Shen Bai Bei is real!]

The comments on the screen were scrolling so fast that Lin Shaobai felt like his eyes were going to get blurry.

Zhang Jingyi, sitting next to her, looked completely bewildered.

She wanted to pick a few answers, but the page scrolled by so quickly that she always hesitated to speak.

The topic of this live stream quickly rose to the top of the trending search list.

The couple Lin Shaobai and Zhang Jingyi have once again climbed back to the top of the couple rankings.

Many people say that the two of them perfectly exemplify how college students should date.

Tian Xiwei had just finished dinner and was casually browsing Weibo when she saw Lin Shaobai and Zhang Jingyi promoting their new TV series together on a live stream.

The sight of the two of them together made Xiaotian frown.

Sure enough, no matter how much time has passed, I still can't help but be jealous of these women.

How could I not be jealous?

Since you like him, you're bound to get jealous!
This is also why Tian Xiwei couldn't understand why those people would agree to stay by Lin Shaobai's side.

Since they're always around, I'm bound to get jealous!

Thinking of this, Tian Xiwei switched to her alternate account and started commenting under this trending topic.

I think the two of them are not a good match at all. I still support Tian Xiwei more. [smile]

Her best friend happened to be sitting next to her and caught a glimpse of that sentence.

"Wow……"

I couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Tian Xiwei immediately put her phone away as if she had been electrocuted, pretending nothing had happened.

"Stop hiding it! I can count every single word in that sentence clearly."

My best friend said.

"Cough! I didn't do anything."

"Come on, I never thought you'd do such silly things in private. I still think of you as a child. You're pulling this kind of stunt."

Although her best friend was complaining, Mo actually thought Xiaotian was very cute.

"Speaking of which, you and that famous Lin Dingliu must have been at odds for a long time now."

Xiaotian's best friend gently put her arm around her shoulder and said.

Tian Xi sighed slightly, looking a little disappointed: "Yes, it's been quite a long time."

"I haven't thought about making up yet."

"This isn't about making up or not; it's not a regular argument. It can only continue if one person compromises."

Either Lin Shaobai breaks up with everyone else and only dates her.

Or it could be an open relationship where Oda compromises.

If you're going to date him, you have to accept that other women will be around.

If no one compromises or backs down, then the relationship between the two can only go this far.

After that incident, Lin Shaobai would often ask people to buy Xiaotian many, many gifts.

Xiaotian did not delete his contact information.

Although neither of them said it outright, neither of them wanted to end the relationship.

"I see you still love it quite a bit, even deliberately using a secondary account to post such childish comments. You would never have done something like this before."

My best friend couldn't help but laugh when she thought about how Xiaotian had carefully used a secondary account to comment earlier.

Tian Xiwei didn't say anything; she just silently gripped the blanket on the sofa.

"My love for him... has never changed. Even knowing this, I feel like I... can't help it..."

"Hey, do you want me to show you the right way?"

My best friend lay down on the other side of the sofa and shook her head like a strategist.

Tian Xiwei: "Tell me! I, Tian the Hero, am willing to hear the details."

"First, figure out what you really want?"

"What I want is for Lin Shaobai to only date me and break up with everyone else."

"So, do you think your wish will come true after all this time?" "..."

Tian Xi frowned slightly, then slowly turned her head to one side.

The facts are already there.

Even if we don't say it, everyone knows.

"Xiaotian, ask your heart again."

"..."

Tian Xiwei's bright, watery eyes darted around, a bitter smile playing on her lips: "Yes, by his side."

Tian Xiwei thought to herself, "Yes, Xiaolin, it's been very simple from beginning to end: you're by my side, right beside me."

"Okay, it's settled."

Xiaotian's best friend smiled and handed her a piece of fruit, saying, "You're a smart person, so I don't need to say anything more, right?"

Tian Xiwei: "..."

……

……

After filming wrapped, Lin Shaobai reached a cooperation agreement with Yaoke Media. Baichen Entertainment and Yaoke Media will jointly produce a new TV series, "Ninefold Purple".

During the planning stages, no one could have imagined that this TV series would become so popular.

However, Lin Shaobai has memories of the future, so he understands that this drama is a dark horse that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, directly making Li Yunrui, the then obscure 18th-tier male lead, rise several levels in popularity.

After filming "Southward and Northward", Lin Shaobai planned to film "Ninefold Purple".

步入12月天气越来越冷了，12月2号晚上7:30，林少白回到公司见到了张婧怡。

Zhang Jingyi's workload has increased due to the popularity of the TV series, and she often goes back to the company to do live broadcasts recently.

"Mr. Lin."

Halfway through their conversation, Zhou Ye's assistant, Xiao Zhao, suddenly knocked on the door and entered: "Zhou Ye is here."

"Huh?" Lin Shaobai was taken aback. He hadn't called Zhou Ye to the company.

"Because Xue'er and Yuxin are practicing dance in the dance studio, Zhou Ye came along too."

"Oh, I see. Tell her to come down and find me in a bit."

"Ok."

At this very moment, Zhou Ye was still dancing with Xue Eryuxin, one of the two girl group members.

In her spare time, Zhou Ye took a ballet certificate exam, believing that it's better for an actress to have more skills.

I also don't want to be on any more of those weird trending topics, like "shattering the Chinese music scene," etc...

However, Ono's stamina was not good, and after dancing for a while, he lay down in the corner of the dance studio to rest.

Kong Xueer glanced back and then quickly ran over, squatted down next to Xiao Yezi, and said with a smile, "I finally finished watching the TV series 'Starry Night' that you filmed before. I found that you acted really well."

"Why did it take you so long to finish reading? You don't pay any attention to me at all." Zhou Ye said in a slightly coquettish tone.

Kong Xueer: "I've been busy releasing albums, and Mr. Lin also asked me to study acting and enrolled me in English classes. I've been so busy every day, so I finally had time to watch your drama. Don't worry, I will definitely support your drama."

"Where is she?" Zhou Ye lay on the ground and pointed to Liu Yuxin, who was dancing in the distance, sweating profusely.

"Yuxin, we've already finished watching it, but she's a rather low-key person and was too embarrassed to say it. We're actually all your fans."

"Oh really?"

"Yes! Zhou Ye, you're incredibly popular right now."

"Dong dong dong."

The two were chatting happily when there was a sudden knock on the door of the practice room.

"Zhou Ye, President Lin wants to see you."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ye blinked his round eyes and asked, "President Lin, are you calling me??"

"Ok!"

Zhou Ye hurriedly followed his assistant to Lin Shaobai's office.

As soon as I entered, I saw Zhang Jingyi sitting opposite Lin Shaobai.

And they seemed to be having a pretty good chat.

Zhou Ye curled his lip and took three steps forward: "Looks like I've come at the wrong time. You guys chat? I'll be going now."

"No, you came just in time."

"Why are you still using memes?"

"Haha! Senior sister, come here quickly."

Lin Shaobai got up from his seat, ran to the door, and pulled his senior sister in front of him.

After sitting down, Zhou Ye glanced at Zhang Jingyi next to him.

Zhang Jingyi first gave her a very gentle and friendly smile, and Zhou Ye accepted this kindness and nodded in return.

The relationship between the two is no longer as awkward as before; it is slowly improving.

Everyone likes Lin Shaobai and is around him, so there's no need for them to argue all the time.

"So, if you and Junior Sister Zhang need to discuss TV dramas, I don't have any dramas airing recently..."

Zhou Ye sat down and paused for a moment, then covered his face with his hands and leaned against the table: "Why did you call me here?"

"Of course, I'm bringing you some things." Lin Shaobai pulled out two "winter warmth gift packages" from under the table.

There are snacks to eat, as well as scarves, gloves, hats and hand warmers.

"It's getting cold, so please take extra care to keep warm."

"Hmm..." While Zhou Ye was still in a daze, Xiao Zhang had already hugged the gift bag to his arms.

"Thank you, Shaobai~" Zhang Jingyi's voice was sweet and obedient, melting everyone's heart.

Actually, I was speaking quite normally just now, but when my senior sister came, it seemed like every sentence I said was a convoluted mess.

Zhou Ye's lips twitched upon hearing the change in tone, and he looked at Zhang Jingyi with a shocked expression.

We're not sisters, so why are you suddenly talking in such a roundabout way?

So cute?

This wasn't the sound when I came in!

"Ahem." Zhou Ye thought he couldn't fall behind. Since the other party was speaking in such roundabout ways, he should join in too!

"Xiaolin~"

Lin Shaobai: "..."

Zhang Jingyi: "..."

Unfortunately, Zhou Ye's voice was distorted too obviously, leaning towards being cloying, which left the two people present dumbfounded.

"Never mind. I didn't say anything just now." Zhou Ye quickly adjusted his emotions and tried his best not to look at Lin Shaobai and Junior Sister Zhang next to him.

To avoid making eye contact and creating an even more awkward situation.

"Anyway, thank you!"

Zhou Ye regained his usual energetic and refreshing demeanor, smiling brightly at Lin Shaobai.

Actually, there was something Lin Shaobai didn't tell anyone.

He was immediately drawn to his senior's bright smile, which was as radiant as the summer sun, when he first met her upon entering university in 2017.

This affection hasn't diminished in the slightest even now.

"Both of you have had outstanding works released this year. Although I've said this many times before, I'd like to say it again. Congratulations on taking another step forward in your careers, gaining more fans who love you, and getting more and better endorsements. I hope next year will be even better."

"As for me..." Lin Shaobai raised his arms and held the two girls' hands: "I will also protect you well. To put it in a cheesy way, I will love you even more tomorrow than I do today."

"Xiao Lin, I..." Zhang Jingyi's face turned bright red upon hearing these words, and she couldn't even speak.

Zhou Ye was also a little shy, but soon a smile appeared on his face: "Tsk tsk! Junior Brother Lin, saying sweet words at this time can really get people excited! If you can't sleep tonight, you'll take responsibility, right?"

"Okay. Sure." Lin Shaobai smiled.

"You...you're messing around!"

There are other people around, what are they saying?
