Chapter 160 – Do You Think I Can Be A Star? (3)

Before anyone knew it, the talent show was already in its seventh episode.

Li Jinyuan had already returned from overseas. The show that he went over to help out in had already been dug up by some channel owners who knew how to get around the firewalls.

Even though many had already learned through the internet that Li Jinyuan had been a high and mighty model in England, none of them had seen that with their own eyes and that didn’t feel real.

When they finally watched the video for themselves, all of them went berserk.

“Oh shooooooootttt! I can’t stop licking my screen. He’s so attractive!!!!! Oh, Li Jinyuan, how could you be so attractive?!”

“He was a tender young man in the show; an elegant prince in the MV; and now he’s so domineering on the runway! Oh, my god… how could any entertainer be so multi-talented? So irresistible?”

“Alright, alright. I am now his fan. Please be in more shows. Pretty please!”

Zhong Yuhuan had her cellphone in one hand and the mansion’s phone in the other as she read the comments on the internet to Li Jinyuan.

Li Jinyuan only chuckled when he heard her.

After she was done reading, he smiled and asked her, “Well, what do you think?”

“Me?” Zhong Yuhuan paused for a second and replayed that video clip in her head. “Yeah, it’s quite good.”

Li Jinyuan sounded a little bit disappointed. “Is that all you have to say?”

Zhong Yuhuan thought to herself, now that you’re getting older, you’re also getting harder and harder to please. Did you want me to infiltrate your fan group to learn the art of rainbow fart?

“Mmm, what do you want to hear?”

“Do you like it?”

Zhong Yuhuan thought about it for a bit and said, “Yes, I like it.”

Li Jinyuan smiled and said, “Okay, I will be back tomorrow.”

And the two ended the call.

Huo Chengming also called her up not too long afterward.

He, too, had returned from oversea and was on his way home.

Zhong Yuhuan looked up at the clock on the wall and said, “It’s pretty late now. Are you tired? Do you not want to just grab a hotel room nearby and get some rest?”

“Not too bad.” What was he talking about? Even his voice was hoarse. He smiled a little and said, “Huanhuan, why don’t you say something to keep me awake?”

She didn’t know what to say when she was asked abruptly.

Zhong Yuhuan wrecked her brain and finally decided on reading to him all the sickening words from Li Jinyuan’s fans in the comments. “Did you know that Li Jinyuan went on the runway again overseas? You can even find videos of it domestically. Boy, was it lively… he is even more popular now than ever… He has all these fans commenting under his Weibo everyday and each of them more sincere and more sickening than the last. Hang on, let me read some of them to you… I promise they will give you goosebumps and help you stay awake…”

Zhong Yuhuan read each and every single work earnestly.

There was no response from the other end of the phone.

Did he fall asleep?

Zhong Yuhuan wondered.

On the other end of the cellphone, Huo Chengming, indeed, was wide awake immediately.

He couldn’t be more awake.

Tender young man? Elegant prince? Domineering? Irresistible?

Huo Chengming lifted his hand and knocked on his own head. Covering up the mic on his phone, he turned and asked his secretary, “Do you think I can be a star?”

Secretary: ?

Um, whatever happened to you that prompted you to say that, Boss?

As though he was under the influence of alcohol, he quickly changed his tune and said, “Nah, it’s no fun being an entertainer.”

Secretary: “Yes, that was exactly right?”

“Do you think I can be a star?”

Secretary: ?

Were we still on this subject?

Secretary: “Yes, of course. You’ve been on the top trending searches previously. It was even said that you are particularly good looking…”

Huo Chengming smiled and said, “Yeah. It’s no fun to be a star.”

Huo Chengming picked up the phone again and said into it, “Huanhuan, I am almost home.”

Secretary: ?

What kind of fake drunkenness did her boss have?
