Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 110, Page 109: Princess, Dried Butterfly (4K)

Zhang Jingyi's breathing became increasingly hot, and at this point, any words seemed superfluous.

The initial kiss was gentle and restrained, but as she gradually increased her breathing, the kiss became deeper and deeper. Finally, when she was almost out of breath, she took the initiative to release Lin Shaobai.

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head and leaned on Lin Shaobai's shoulder.

Her face flushed red, and the blush spread all the way to her ears.

"Thank you……"

The three words, uttered by the princess, drifted lightly into Lin Shaobai's ears.

Lin Shaobai: "You're too kind."

As Zhang Jingyi spoke, she grabbed Lin Shaobai's pajamas and took the initiative to unbutton them one by one.

"I'll do it tonight."

"..."

……

……

……

The next day
Zhang Jingyi got up first.

Weibo exploded first thing this morning!!!
Of course, it wasn't her affair with Lin Shaobai that caused the uproar; it was another top-tier female celebrity, Zhao Xiaodao.

Breaking news! Zhao Xiaodao is three months pregnant and has taken a break from work!! Zhao Xiaodao, who is currently on a semi-retirement period, is actually three months pregnant. And Feng Shaofeng is by her side!

Empty words cannot be believed.

Soon after, photos of the two driving into the apartment on July 23 were released.

After the news broke, Weibo exploded instantly, with the top trending topics all related to Zhao Xiaodao.

When top celebrities are involved in scandals, it always sparks a lot of discussion among netizens.

News of marriage is even more heartbreaking.

"Could it be that the two of them are together?"

Zhang Jingyi scrolled through Weibo and sat on the bed muttering to herself.

After a while, Lin Shaobai's phone rang.

He turned off the alarm clock, opened his eyes, and rolled over, his arm still around the princess's waist.

"Shaobai, I have some big news."

"What?"

"It seems that Zhao Xiaodao is dating Uncle Feng."

Lin Shaobai remained calm upon hearing the news.

Zhang Jingyi: "Why aren't you reacting at all? This is big news!!"

"Oh."

"You're so calm, you don't know something, do you?"

"Yes."

Lin Shaobai got up, took Zhang Jingyi's phone, and looked at the Weibo post.

The photo shows Zhao Xiaodao and Uncle Feng entering the apartment together.

Although they were both wrapped up tightly, it was easy to tell that it was the two of them.

Zhang Jingyi tilted her head and looked at Lin Shaobai's face.

Why is he so calm now?
Could it be that Kobayashi doesn't gossip at all?

Not gossipy?!
Not interested in melon seeds?!

"Don't you have any interest in these entertainment news stories?"

"No."

"Oh. But I think this news is probably fake." After saying that, Zhang Jingyi realized she might be wrong: "Of course, it's also possible it's true?"

Lin Shaobai: "What would your reaction be if I told you that they are a real couple?"

"Really?!" Zhang Jingyi's eyes widened instantly.

This news was still quite a shock to her.

The top female star hasn't had any romantic relationships for many years, except for a rumored romance with Chen Xiao in her early years.

The two of them probably did look for someone, but neither of them admitted it.

Of course, some say it was just a publicity stunt for the TV series, where they went too far with creating a romantic pairing.

This is the first time in all these years that Zhao Xiaodao has revealed such a sensational relationship rumor!
"Looks like you really do know inside information."

"Um……"

Lin Shaobai stated that he only knew about the future internally.

I wasn't familiar with Zhao Xiaodao either.

"Kobayashi, let me ask you again, is it true?"

Zhang Jingyi's thirst for knowledge was exceptionally strong at this moment.

Lin Shaobai: "It's true. They're a real couple, a real lover. Would I lie to you?"

Zhang Jingyi: "Okay then, I will definitely keep this secret to myself and won't tell anyone."

The princess now looked sincere, as if she were determined to uphold some promise to the death.

Lin Shaobai sighed helplessly yet indulgently.

Actually, it doesn't matter if we don't keep this secret, since they'll be officially announcing their marriage and getting their marriage certificate in a few months anyway.

In a few months, the baby will be born!!
Zhao Xiaodao is currently dominating Weibo's trending topics, and his fans are getting their sleeves rolled up and getting to work.

Can't the paparazzi at least capture some meaningful news every day?

Those who spread rumors can go to hell ←_←

[This is utter nonsense. How could Zhao Xiaodao possibly be pregnant?!]

Don't believe what marketing accounts say; don't be fooled into buying skincare products when you get old.

[This is such a brainless rumor. She finished filming the commercial and went to rest to prepare for the later fan meeting. She took a few photos secretly, and now they're saying she stopped working because she's pregnant?]

[Don't believe this, everyone! Wait until it airs in December to see if "The Story of Minglan" is true!!]

It continues to dominate the trending topics list.

When media outlets contacted Zhao Xiaodao's staff for confirmation, they stated that there was absolutely no such thing!
Then he repeatedly questioned Zhao Xiaodao himself.

Zhao Xiaodao was also speechless and quickly posted a Weibo post to clarify his situation.

[I don't know what I said, so I'll just do a split for everyone!!]

The fact that the person in question posted this kind of Weibo post gave their fans a huge boost of confidence.

Lin Shaobai said he would just watch this farce and leave it at that.

The six leading actresses of the "85 Flowers" era all ended up divorcing or breaking up in their marriages.

Teacher Yang Tianbao married Huang Xiaoming at the age of 26, Zhao Xiaodao later announced her marriage to Uncle Feng at the age of 31, Yang Mi married Liu Kaiwei at the age of 27, Tong Liya was 31, Liu Shishi was 28, and Tang Yan was a little older, choosing to marry Luo Jin at the age of 35.

Netizens commented that they got married and had children during the peak of their careers.

Back then, Yang Mi made no attempt to hide her love for Liu Kaiwei; she must have been truly head over heels for him.

Otherwise, how could they have gotten married so quickly?!

There's also the saying that if you get pregnant, you should get married; actually, many people do that.

Later, four of the six couples officially announced their divorce, and rumors circulated online that Liu Shishi had also gotten divorced.

Some people say it's a rumor, a mix of truth and falsehood.

To find out the truth, we'll probably have to ask the people involved.

It seems that Tang Yan and Luo Jin haven't had any strange rumors about getting a divorce.

Not long after the start of the new semester at the Beijing Film Academy, Lin Shaobai returned to school for a performance class.

After class, he said to Zhang Jingyi, "Come with me to my mother's office in a little while."

Zhang Jingyi: "What are you going to Dean Han's office for?"

Lin Shaobai: "I'm meeting someone."

Zhang Jingyi was full of questions, and then followed behind Lin Shaobai.

I thought it might be Dean Han who would say something, but I didn't expect to see Zhou Xun and Chen Kun when I entered the office.

Zhang Jingyi didn't react at first. The face she often saw on TV was actually right in front of her!

"Um?!"

Zhang Jingyi stood frozen at the doorway, hesitant to go inside.

When Lin Shaobai saw this, he pulled her inside and closed the office door behind him.

Zhang Jingyi was particularly quiet and shy, her hands hanging naturally at her sides, and she seemed a little awkward for a moment.

"Teacher Zhou Xun..."

"Hello, Zhang Jingyi."

Zhou Xun smiled slightly when he saw Zhang Jingyi.

Dean Han stood between Chen Kun and Zhou Xun: "Jingyi, you should be quite familiar with these two, right?"

Zhang Jingyi nodded: "Yes."

Dean Han: "The two of you came to Beijing Film Academy specifically to select some students to study acting at their company. Shao Bai specifically recommended you, so they came to take a look."

Zhou Xun: "I've seen Lin Shaobai's dramas, Ashes of Love and the movie Sadness. I quite like his acting skills, so I'll definitely check out the people he recommends."

As he spoke, he moved closer to Zhang Jingyi, carefully observing the girl's face.

Zhang Jingyi became even more shy at such close range, and kept looking down.

Zhou Xun: "What are you shy about? Lift your head up so I can see you."

Zhang Jingyi slowly raised her face again.

Zhou Xun nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Chen Kun standing behind him: "What do you think? I think this face will definitely turn red."

Zhang Jingyi's eyes lit up when she heard Zhou Xun say that, and she looked at Lin Shaobai in disbelief.

Lin Shaobai had been playing a background role here until he inadvertently noticed Zhang Jingyi's surprised yet flustered eyes.

He nodded quickly, indicating that he believed in himself.

Chen Kun walked over and looked Zhang Jingyi up and down, thinking that her face was indeed very intriguing.

There's no shortage of good-looking faces at Beijing Film Academy; the important thing is a face that can become famous.

It's fine to look good, but it's equally important to look good in your own style.

Zhou Xun is currently very satisfied with Zhang Jingyi's image.

If the appearance is acceptable, just accept it.

"not bad."

Chen Kun walked over to Zhang Jingyi and said, "Zhang Jingyi, right?"

Zhang Jingyi nodded.

Besides Dean Han, the other three people in the room were all top celebrities.

At present, she is just an ordinary person. How can she not be timid?

"Would you like to come to Dong Sheng Future to study? To learn how to be a good actor? Would you like to?"

Zhang Jingyi subconsciously looked at Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun: "I'm at the company too."

Zhang Jingyi nodded again: "Of course I'm willing. I will definitely study hard when I get to the company."

Zhou Xun and Chen Kun smiled.

"That's good. Come to our company next Friday and we'll discuss some more detailed points with you."

Zhou Xun and Chen Kun packed their things and left Dean Han's office one after the other.

After everyone left, Zhang Jingyi seemed to have her soul ripped out.

It tilted backward slightly.

The atmosphere was so tense just now!!

Dean Han sat in his chair with a smile: "Isn't this great? Zhou Xun admires you very much."

Zhang Jingyi swallowed nervously: "Dean..."

"Actually, I've had high hopes for you ever since you first enrolled. You'll definitely forge your own path in the future. I'm very good at judging people. Just like how I could tell that Lin Shaobai was definitely going to be a singing champion."

"Hey"

Lin Shaobai can't stay in the background any longer. Why are his statements so inconsistent?!
When she participated in The Voice of China, she was criticized a lot. How come she's now being told she's bound to be the singing champion?

Dean Han: "Why are you so excited? Mom really believed you could win the singing championship."

Lin Shaobai: "Come on, you didn't believe I could sing at all back then. You even said my singing cured your migraines, because your whole head hurt whenever I sang. This song should only exist in heaven; after you hear it, the King of Hell will take you away!"

"Mom was being sarcastic. If Mom hadn't said that, would you have been inspired to sing such beautiful songs? Would you have been able to perform so well on stage?"

Dean Han has changed his tactics again.

Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle as she watched the mother and son argue throughout the entire process.

"Dean Han, I have to go now. Thank you, Dean. ^ω^"

Zhang Jingyi bowed slightly and then left the office.

Lin Shaobai chased after him after a while: "Hey."

Zhang Jingyi stopped: "What's wrong?"

Lin Shaobai: "Um... Good luck."

"Pfft. This kind of formulaic cheering doesn't seem like our relationship."

"Then... Ganbatte?"

"…………"

Zhang Jingyi tilted her head, thinking that Lin Shaobai was really humorous.

There's a sense of humor that's beyond someone of her age.

"I'm really impressed by you."

"..."

"Shaobai, although I've said this many times, I still want to express my gratitude to you. I will definitely study hard at that company and try my best to get them to sign me."

"Ah."

Zhang Jingyi turned and went downstairs to the next classroom, and Lin Shaobai sighed.

After a while, Dean Han came out with his arms crossed: "It's obvious that you have special feelings for Zhang Jingyi. Why do you give her such a good recommendation opportunity instead of others?"

"It's a secret, Mom. Aren't you being a little too nosy?"

"Tsk. Look at you. I asked a few more questions and it became gossip?" Dean Han thought for a moment, then patted Lin Shaobai on the shoulder: "But, I'm very satisfied with you now."

Lin Shaobai: "Hmm?"

Dean Han: "Now when I open those celebrity ranking lists, I always see your name. I never thought you would become famous so quickly."

"So you're saying you believe I'll become famous sooner or later?" Lin Shaobai laughed.

Dean Han: "Your face can't possibly stay red, it just won't hide it. But let me tell you, you should always be low-key and humble, especially in public. Never say anything inappropriate. Of course, you can say whatever you want, unless you want to ruin your future."

Dean Han was joking.

"Mom, I know all that. They talk about it all the time at the company."

"Well, that's fine."

"With a movie that grossed a billion, your path will be much easier." Dean Han returned to his office and took out some documents from the cabinet: "Since the movie was released, everyone has seen your ability to carry a film."

An actor's ability to carry a drama is particularly important.

If a TV series starring you performs exceptionally well, investors will see that you have the ability to carry a show, making it easier to attract sponsors and advertisers will come one after another.

The number of notebooks looking for you will also increase.

Therefore, an actor needs at least two to three hit dramas to prove that they have the ability.

If you only have one hit drama, but your subsequent dramas flop completely, or even several consecutively, then you're in a bad situation.

Then the sponsor might stop placing any hope in you.

The entertainment industry is constantly evolving, with new and talented actors emerging one after another, and celebrities climbing the ranks of popularity.

Why choose someone like you who has no ability to carry a drama and has damaged public image?
Lin Shaobai understood this principle, which is why he was very careful with every drama he starred in afterward.

I would never choose a flop; I would either choose a well-known and popular show.

"Oh, by the way, I heard that they're inviting you to be on the fourth season of 'Who's the Murderer'?"

"Who's the Murderer???"
