Entertainment Era: Starting with Teaching Sister Meng to Sing

"Wow, how did you know it was my birthday today?"

Many little stars appeared in Meng Ziyi's eyes.

Wang Xiaozhou mimicked her, saying, "Wow, I've used your ID to book hotels so many times, I've practically memorized your ID number. If I still don't know your birthday, wouldn't I be an idiot?"

"I hate you!"

Meng Ziyi patted Wang Xiaozhou on the shoulder, the flirtatious undertones practically overflowing the room.

"Please blow out the candles, you eighteen-year-old young woman."

Wang Xiaozhou very gentlemanly pushed the cake in front of Meng Ziyi.

Meng Ziyi also cooperated by putting her hands together, making her eighteenth birthday wish with an uncontrollable smile, and then blowing out the candles with a sigh.

"I haven't celebrated my birthday in a long time. I even planned not to celebrate until I turned sixty. I really didn't expect you to remember my birthday."

"Celebrating a birthday..."

Meng Jie's choice of words made Wang Xiaozhou laugh: "Celebrating your birthday at eighteen? You should be more low-key, old man, let's cut the cake."

Meng Ziyi ceremoniously cut the cake into several pieces, then complained with a bitter face, "I ate too much just now, and now there's no room for the cake."

Wang Xiaozhou continued eating the cake Meng Ziyi had just handed him: "I have two birthday gifts. I'll give you one after you finish the cake, and the other before you go to sleep."

Upon hearing this, Meng Ziyi took a deep breath and took a big bite of the cake, but her stomach betrayed her, and she had to chew for a long time before she could swallow it.

After barely managing to finish a piece of cake, Meng Ziyi held out her hand: "The gift, the first gift."

Wang Xiaozhou didn't keep anyone in suspense and directly pulled a shoebox out of his suitcase.

"It is said that a girl's coming-of-age ceremony is incomplete without a pair of high heels. Logically, this should be arranged by the father, but our situation is special. How about this, you call me Dad, and I will put the shoes on for you myself."

Wang Xiaozhou opened the shoebox, revealing a pair of black patent leather high heels with red soles.

Looking at the high heels she had once longed for, Meng Ziyi didn't hesitate for a moment and called out, "Dad."

Wang Xiaozhou was a little confused by her. He had only meant it as a joke, but he didn't expect Meng Ziyi to agree so readily.

However, keeping his word, Wang Xiaozhou knelt down on one knee, took off Meng Ziyi's slippers, gently pressed her black high heels on, and then clicked his tongue twice.

"Perfect, truly a work of art."

Meng Ziyi was still dressed the same as before, wearing gray leggings. She stood up and walked to the mirror in two quick steps in her high heels, sincerely praising herself.

"So beautiful, and her legs are so long."

Wang Xiaozhou squinted: "Is it long? I haven't verified it. Last time, they stopped after measuring half of it."

Meng Ziyi didn't even blush, and walked confidently to the bathroom door: "I'm going to wash up, then I'll let you take my measurements."

Wang Xiaozhou was not intimidated at all: "Don't change your leggings when you come out."

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Wang Xiaozhou sat in the living room, lit a cigarette, and was somewhat excited.

A short while later, the sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and Meng Ziyi came out while drying her hair: "Do you...want you to take a shower too?"

Wang Xiaozhou sat on the sofa, completely dazed.

Meng Ziyi actually put her gray leggings back on, while her upper body was rather revealing, consisting of only a conservative-style thermal underwear.

But most importantly, she had changed out of her slippers when she came out, and was now wearing the red-soled high heels that Wang Xiaozhou had given her.

The seemingly ordinary outfit was surprisingly alluring.

Coming to his senses, Wang Xiaozhou rushed to the bathroom, took off his clothes, ran the water, and dried himself off. The entire shower took no more than three minutes. When he came out of the bathroom, Meng Ziyi hadn't even finished drying her hair.

"Weight, now?"

"quantity!"

Meng Ziyi's firm response made Wang Xiaozhou instantly excited, but Meng Ziyi stopped him just as he reached out: "Wait, what about the second gift?"

"The second gift is, of course, the most precious thing I've ever had: turn off the lights!"

Later, recalling the incident, Wang Xiaozhou only remembered that Meng Ziyi smelled very fragrant that day...

......

The next day, since they had arranged to practice singing together with Wang Feng in the afternoon, the two of them opened their eyes in bed at ten o'clock in the morning.

Noticing that Meng Ziyi was a little embarrassed, Wang Xiaozhou simply closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, letting her adjust herself.

But after Meng Ziyi woke up, instead of acting quietly, she took away the blanket covering Wang Xiaozhou and pulled out the sheet as well.

Seeing that she was about to throw the sheets and duvet cover into the washing machine, Wang Xiaozhou finally couldn't help but say cheekily, "I heard that some people collect these things."

Meng Ziyi grabbed a towel and threw it at Wang Xiaozhou, yelling, "Get lost!"

......

After lunch, Meng Ziyi finally returned to normal. She changed into a simple casual outfit, put on sneakers, and went out with Wang Xiaozhou by her side.

On the way to the recording studio, Wang Xiaozhou asked in a low voice, "Why did you put the high heels and clothes I gave you together? Are you planning to only wear them at home from now on?"

Meng Ziyi gave Wang Xiaozhou a cute glare. This bastard went too far yesterday. Not only did he force himself to be a generation higher, but he also made her put on a fashion show for him. All the clothes in her wardrobe were ruined by him.

"Oh my, it's been a long time! Miss Meng has become even more beautiful."

Wang Feng, who had been waiting in the recording studio, stood up and greeted the two with a smile when they arrived hand in hand.

Meng Ziyi smiled politely and handed the situation over to the man beside her.

Wang Xiaozhou smiled and shook hands with Wang Feng: "Brother Wang, you're still as charming as ever. I'm afraid Meng Ziyi will be able to stay on this season of Singer again."

As Wang Feng led the two towards the recording studio cubicle, he put his arm around Wang Xiaozhou's shoulder and said, "You really kept this a secret for a long time. If you had told me earlier that you could write and sing, I would have gotten you into The Voice of China to be my student, so I could have taken advantage of the songwriting master."

Wang Xiaozhou raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? Teacher Wang has received the news?"

Upon entering the recording studio cubicle, Wang Feng gestured for Meng Ziyi to sit down first, and then chatted casually with Wang Xiaozhou:

"There's no need to get any information now; every time I open Weibo, it's full of you."

"But Xiao Zhou, it's going to be hard for you to become a truly talented actor. This is the first time I've seen such a talented newcomer enter the entertainment industry and be immediately labeled as an idol by netizens."

Upon hearing this, Meng Ziyi covered her mouth and chuckled. She was arguably the person who paid the most attention to Wang Xiaozhou online, and she was always the first to know about the strange and quirky comments from netizens.

In the early days of the release of "Liaozhai: Lanruo Temple", netizens were still focused on the plot and praised the director and the lead actors.

But starting yesterday, the winds shifted, and everyone began discussing where Wang Xiaozhou came from. As a result, many nosy netizens started digging into his past.

Then they dug up the creators of the songs he sang, plus his performance in "Liaozhai: Lanruo Temple" and that "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion".

It can be said that everyone has found out all of Wang Xiaozhou's footprints since his debut.

But none of that matters.

The important thing is that netizens only care about Wang Xiaozhou's looks.

The work is certainly good, and everyone is following it.

But Wang Xiaozhou himself has already been labeled by netizens.

With his face, he has to be an idol!
