Chapter 285 - 285: The Arrival of the Male God and Goddess at the Same Time! (2)
Xie Yu, baffled, could only respond with a puzzled, “…?”
It wasn’t until he was pulled by Serene Delight for a photo and autograph that he began to understand.
Before he could comment, he caught the scrutinizing gaze of Upon Brocade and quickly retreated behind Si Fuqing.
“What are you doing?” Si Fuqing asked, an eyebrow raised in curiosity.
“The internet says I’m the wealthy younger brother to Teacher Si,” Xie Yu replied casually, a playful lilt in his voice. “As my older sister, you’ll surely protect me.”
Si Fuqing’s eyes narrowed slightly, amusement tinged with incredulity. “Now’s the time you forget you’re two years older than me?”
Unashamed, Xie Yu grinned. “I’m adaptable.”
He was, after all, well-practiced in dealing with the whims of Mrs. Xie.
Si Fuqing could only respond with a thumbs-up. ‘You’re slightly more impressive than me, I suppose.”
“I’ve also brought the costumes,” Serene Delight said, tucking away the autograph with satisfaction. She set her backpack down. “These were gifts from an event I attended with Upon Brocade. Never worn them before.”
“Wow!” Xu Xiyun’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Oracle assassin and dancer cosplay! ”
Unsurprisingly, Upon Brocade and Serene Delight were the voice actors for these characters.
“We’ll wear these on stage. The officials said they are unique, exact replicas of the game’s costumes,” Serene Delight clapped her hands, pride evident in her voice. “Impressive, right?”
“Very,” Si Fuqing commented, feeling the fabric of the costume. “This material is high quality. This whole set must’ve cost a fortune.”
Upon Brocade glanced at the dancer’s outfit, a suspicious flush creeping onto his face before quickly fading. “The outfit’s too revealing.”
“It’s fine,” Si Fuqing unfolded the costume for a closer look. “The skirt reaches the ankles, and it’s just a bit of midriff showing. Plus, there’s a matching veil. How is that revealing? You sound so old-fashioned.”
ained silent.
“Let’s look forward to tomorrow’s performance,” Serene Delight said cheerfully, her nerves apparent. “I’ve never performed on stage before. I’m a bit nervous.”
“Don’t worry, if you’re nervous, just look at me,” Si Fuqing winked. “I’ll be right there in the audience. My gaze will ease your nerves.” Upon Brocade cast a forlorn glance her way.
Xie Yu pondered silently.
Teacher Si was quite the flirt and took good care of others, yet sometimes she seemed clueless about certain things.
“Ha ha ha ha!” Xu Xiyun suddenly burst into laughter, hands on his hips.
“Tomorrow, Lu Yan and the others are going to have a tough time. They have Bie Yunxi, but we have the great Serene Delight!”
Indeed, Serene Delight had played a significant role in the success of “Traffic Romance.”
The internet had once compared Bie Yunxi’s original and dubbed versions.
The original lacked emotional impact.
“Are you that confident in me?” Serene Delight was surprised. “She’s the
National First Love, and I’m not. I’ve been behind the scenes for so long.”
“Of course!” Xu Xiyun exclaimed. “You’re the goddess of us guys, how could we forget!”
Serene Delight laughed heartily. “What about your Teacher Si, then?”
Xu Xiyun deflated, muttering softly, “Teacher Si’s too perfect. I wouldn’t dare.”
Si Fuqing kicked him playfully. “Go perform.”
Xu Xiyun scampered off.
Upon Brocade brooded quietly.
“Here are VIP tickets,” Si Fuqing whispered, pulling out two tickets from her pocket. “Give these to the Director and Mighty Dark.”
Serene Delight responded with an OK gesture, understanding the task at hand.
Saturday arrived, bringing with it the third public performance.
The show’s production team had stirred up quite the intrigue online, leading to heightened anticipation for Xie Yu’s group.
Even with the presence of Bie Yunxi to boost the show, Lu Yan found himself once again overshadowed by Xie Yu in terms of online buzz and discussion.
Lu Yan was restless. “Sister Ning, didn’t we invite Teacher Ming to support them? Why has it turned into a mysterious guest appearance?”
Ever since Si Fuqing revealed her true nature, Lu Yan’s days in the training camp had been far from pleasant.
He had given up hope of competing with Xie Yu. If anything went wrong in this performance, he feared being pushed out of the top three by Xu Xiyun and Ye Qingyou!
Sister Ning furrowed her brows. “We did invite Miss Ming. But yesterday, she had an argument with Si Fuqing and withdrew from the performance, so the production team had to advertise a mysterious supporting guest.”
“I see,” Lu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they were just playing up the mystery due to lack of time.
“Don’t worry,” Sister Ning reassured, glancing at her watch. “The company has already checked other celebrities’ schedules. No one else is available, and who could be a bigger draw than Miss Bie?”
Relieved, Lu Yan relaxed a bit but remained vigilant. “Sister Ning, I must be the first to perform this time..”
