Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 166, Section 165: Their Relationship Was Discovered While Traveling Abroad (6K)

"Oh dear, Grandma! There are no crows!"

Zhou Ye felt both ashamed and embarrassed by what was said.

Sure enough, the old man had a sudden inspiration, which was even more painful than being seriously humiliated!

Suddenly, I don't feel so bad about Lin Shaobai saying that his singing was bad anymore.

Zhou Ye stood up, hands on her hips, and began to wonder if her singing was really that bad.
Is it so awful that even my grandmother thought it sounded like a crow?
"But Grandma clearly heard crows cawing outside."

Zhou Ye's grandmother was sleeping soundly in the house when she suddenly heard an extremely unpleasant sound coming from outside!
As people get older, their hearing is already failing, and having to hear such unpleasant sounds is like double torture.

That's why Grandma subconsciously asked, "Are there any crows?"
What other creature could make that kind of sound?
It could absolutely not have been posted by my precious granddaughter, who is intelligent, kind, sincere, helpful, and loved by everyone!
Zhou Ye sighed, then ran into the house and helped his grandmother, who was about to get up, to her feet.

"Grandma, there are no crows cawing."

"I clearly heard it just now."

"Sigh." Zhou Ye gently brushed his head with his hand: "That's your precious granddaughter singing."

"what?!"

My grandmother, who was old and had gray hair, was so sensitive that she stood frozen in place!
Zhou Ye also stopped, his face calm: "Yes, I was singing outside, Grandma. If I disturbed your sleep, I apologize."

"Oh, it's nothing." Grandma touched Zhou Ye's face and hugged her.

My grandmother had a faint smell of medicine on her, which was the smell of Chinese medicine she had been drinking for many years.

When Zhou Ye has free time, he also helps his grandmother brew Chinese medicine.

She knew her grandmother was in poor health, so she helped as much as she could.

"Why can't you sleep?"

Grandma and Zhou Ye sat together in the courtyard.

"Sigh, there's nothing we can do. This is the age when people are confused about the future," Zhou Ye said in a very humorous tone.

Grandma: "Ah, that's true, you really should be feeling lost about the future right now."

"Grandma, were you confused when you were my age?"

"Back then, we weren't even getting enough to eat. How could we have the mind to be confused about the future?"

Grandma told the truth.

Every generation has its own generation gap, and every generation has its own troubles.

However, Grandma wouldn't take advantage of her age and experience to bully Zhou Ye, who is now in his early twenties.

"But are you really confused about the future? Could it be that..."

When Grandma narrowed her eyes, Zhou Ye panicked.

"Um...why are you looking at me like that? Okay! Yes, yes, I was thinking about someone..."

Zhou Ye's face flushed instantly, his fingers involuntarily gripping the hem of his clothes, and he dared not look his grandmother in the eye again.

She could feel her heart gradually racing, her ears burning, and her whole body feeling like it was on fire.

what happened?

Why are you so easily embarrassed?
"Hahaha...So cute."

However, her shy little gestures were seen as very cute by her family.

Zhou Ye used to make similar gestures and expressions to his mother at home.

In her mother's eyes, she is just as adorable.

Zhou Ye lowered his head, twirling his index fingers back and forth, and said, "There is someone I miss very much, but he is very far away from me."

"It's far away, can you go see him?"

Grandma said.

Zhou Ye paused for a moment, then scratched his neck: "It's possible..."

She also had money on her, enough to go to Pakistan.

"But I'm worried that if I suddenly go there, he won't feel surprised, but rather that he'll feel like a burden."

"how could be?"

"Grandma, the person I miss has a rather special identity, so..."

"Oh, well... then Ono, you should think it through yourself. If you do, Grandma will support you no matter what you do."

"Um……"

Zhou Ye yawned; he hadn't expected to actually get a little sleepy after chatting for a while.

"Grandma, my first movie is going to be released this year. Do you remember what it's called?"

Zhou Ye blinked his bright eyes, full of anticipation.

"Of course I remember, it's called 'Better Days'."

"Hey! Grandma, you remember it so clearly? Not bad, not bad, Ono is very satisfied."

Zhou Ye had a smile on his lips, a smile that was both playful and proud.

She still habitually put one hand on her hip, her movements light and graceful, like a deer in the forest.

Grandma looked at her kindly.

“You keep talking about this movie. Grandma might not remember it if you only read it once or twice, but if you read it ten or a hundred times, how could Grandma not remember it? This is my precious granddaughter’s first movie to be released. Don’t worry, Grandma will definitely go see it.”

"real?!"

"Of course. I'll support you."

"Great."

While Zhou Ye was happy, she also thought about how she played a very bad girl in the drama.

She was so bad that she felt deeply guilty while acting.

"But Grandma," Zhou Ye pouted again, losing her previous pride, "I play a very bad girl in this movie, so don't hate me to death."

"Grandma has dentures, it's fine."

"Oh, it's not about the teeth, it's just a metaphor."

As Zhou Ye spoke, he hugged his grandmother, his voice softer than before: "Grandma, what I mean is, I play a very bad person in this movie, so..."

"Is it bad?" Grandma asked.

Zhou Ye swallowed hard and nodded four times: "Very bad, the kind of bad that happens during school. Bullying classmates, and quite excessively."

"Oh..." Grandma understood Zhou Ye's concerns, but quickly stroked Zhou Ye's face with her hand.

"Although Grandma doesn't understand it very well, she does understand one thing: acting is acting, and reality is reality. Xiao Ye has always been a very kind, cheerful, and helpful girl. It must be a heavy burden for her to act in this kind of role."

Zhou Ye never expected her grandmother to say that, which undoubtedly gave her a boost of confidence and warmed her heart.

"Yes, it is very heavy. It's all because of the person I'm missing. He comforted me, helped me, and guided me out of this predicament while he was filming."

"Oh...then you should cherish this relationship."

Zhou Ye nodded.

She really missed Lin Shaobai, and after chatting tonight, she was even thinking about whether she should secretly go to Ba Kingdom to visit him.

Just treat it as a trip, it's nothing serious.

Going to Pakistan isn't difficult!

"Let's go, Grandma. I'm a little sleepy. Let me help you to bed."

"We've only been out for a short while, and we already have to go back."

"I feel a little cold, Grandma, you can't catch a cold!"

Zhou Ye helped his grandmother into the house.

After tucking her grandmother in with the blanket, she sat alone on the edge of the bed and looked out the window again.

"Let's go see him."

"I miss him so much."

……

Lin Shaobai and Zhang Jingyi spent a total of three days on the overseas island.

What appeared to be a sweet trip for two was actually mostly Lin Shaobai dealing with work matters during the three days, while Zhang Jingyi explored the entire island on her own.

On their last night together, the two sat by the sea.

The two of them were not speaking to each other at first, but simply sitting side by side.

After a while, Lin Shaobai suddenly came up with an idea.

He spoke to Zhang Jingyi with unusual affection, "Do you remember our first meeting at the beach many years ago? You were wearing—"

"Wait a moment."

Zhang Jingyi interrupted Lin Shaobai without even thinking.

Lin Shaobai was instantly embarrassed.

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

"Have you forgotten? Oh, dear Ms. Zhang!"

Zhang Jingyi looked at Lin Shaobai's tone, which sounded like European opera, with a sense of helplessness.

Oh well, she's used to it.

“We met in 2017, how many years ago? This is our first time at the beach, really.”

Zhang Jingyi looked into the distance again: "Let's go back in a while, the wind is getting stronger."

"Ah."

"Why does time fly by so fast? I want to spend more time with you. But I have to go back to school."

"There's still a chance. It's not like we're going to die tomorrow."

"puff."

Zhang Jingyi covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

Shao Bai is still so good at talking.

"Shaobai, actually, I'm a little nervous."

"What are you nervous about?"

"I'm nervous that the drama we're filming next might not turn out well."

"No. We haven't even filmed anything yet, and you're already worrying about what will happen after the show airs? Aren't you being a little too anxious?"

After Lin Shaobai finished speaking, he moved closer to Zhang Jingyi: "Actually, I noticed a long time ago that you get anxious very easily."

Zhang Jingyi couldn't refute this reasoning.

She chose to go to nature often because she used to be prone to anxiety and internal conflict.

This will reduce her emotional problems.

"Yes, a little bit."

Zhang Jingyi said softly.

"Don't worry, with me as the male lead, what do you need to worry about?"

Lin Shaobai braced his hands on the sand, tilted his head back, and listened quietly to the sound of the waves crashing.

"Yes, you're right. You're the male lead, and the script is pretty good, so I really don't need to worry too much about the results."

Zhang Jingyi knew in her heart that Lin Shaobai was the most popular male idol right now, and any drama he starred in would definitely be number one in its time slot!
Anyone who gets to work in a TV series starring him is just unlucky.

Moreover, it will be difficult for any TV series to surpass the achievements of the ones he starred in for many years to come.

"There's really no need to be too anxious."

"Yes. And let me give you an example, although you can completely ignore this example. Even if the show doesn't do very well..."

Lin Shaobai was just saying that; "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is definitely going to be a huge hit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen this seemingly ordinary play from among several scripts, one that appeared to be destined to be lost in the long river of time.

"I'm the one who has to bear the consequences. It has nothing to do with you, and everyone will definitely be criticizing me."

"This……"

"Don't worry, trust me, Lin Beixing will definitely become a part of your life."

Zhang Jingyi stared quietly at Lin Shaobai. At this moment, she felt particularly calm and trusted her classmate Lin wholeheartedly.

Lin Shaobai patted Zhang Jingyi's head and stood up: "Similarly, I think Zhang Wansen can also become a role in my life."

"Ah."

Zhang Jingyi obediently stood up as well, carefully leaning towards Lin Shaobai.

And standing in the distance was Assistant Xiao Liu.

Assistant Xiao Liu had been there since early morning, keeping an eye on things to see if anything unusual was happening and to see if the boss needed any help.

"Sigh, boss, your luck with women is just too good, but you..."

Your setup is too demanding on modeling. Is there any way to avoid this problem?

"I also want a sweet romance!"

……

After his trip to the overseas islands, Lin Shaobai immediately went to Pakistan to film a music video.

Zhang Jingyi flew back to China alone. She wasn't an exception like Lin Shaobai, who could skip school.

After several days of investigation, Lin Shaobai finally chose to film in the capital of Ba State.

He also arranged for many brightly colored vintage cars.

They spent money to hire many professional Pakistani dancers to dance in designated areas and create an atmosphere.

Lin Shaobai also spent time and effort learning a few routines from them, preparing to perform them in the music video.

He has a professional makeup artist to help him choose suitable outfits.

Lin Shaobai's requirements were that it should have a strong tropical feel and reflect the characteristics of summer romance and retro style.

He was concerned about the music video for this song from beginning to end, hoping to present everyone with the best work of art.

He's been busy with these things for almost half a month, and he also has to rush back to China at the end of the month to film the TV series "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

The music video took longer to produce than originally planned.

That evening, Lin Shaobai and his staff sat together discussing the production of the music video.

"Actually, I think..."

"Director Lin!"

This music video was directed by Lin Shaobai, so here, most of them call Lin Shaobai Director Lin.

There's a little girl outside looking for you.

"Little girl?"

The staff member shouted, then, seeing that it was getting a bit noisy, quickly ran to Lin Shaobai's ear and whispered, "To me, she's a little girl, but to you, Director Lin, she should be an older sister."

"?"

Lin Shaobai was wondering where he had found a sister since he was in this unfamiliar place.

"They're waiting for you outside, Director. Look at this..."

"Alright. Let's call it a day and everyone go back and rest."

Lin Shaobai asked his assistant, Xiao Liu, to pack his things.

I worked a bit too long today, I should take a break.

"Take me to see her."

"Ah."

As soon as Lin Shaobai left, several of his staff members gathered together.

"I just realized how well the rap in this song is written. Look at the colorful vintage cars swaying with the palm trees, eloping aimlessly with the sea breeze, the antique bookstores filled with the fragrance of time, I wonder if I met you in a past life... Who says he's lost his touch?"

"Maybe it's because he's releasing fewer songs."

"How could someone with such talent possibly run out of ideas? Besides, I saw him learn that kind of dance after just one viewing. He's truly amazing."

"yes……"

Many of the people who filmed the music video were working with Lin Shaobai for the first time.

They didn't think highly of Lin Shaobai at first.

They felt that Lin Shaobai was just a top star with a pretty face but no real ability.

As a result of this collaboration, I discovered that he is a very good person, talented and kind.

She can write songs, sing, direct music videos, and act...

The younger generation is truly formidable.

Lin Shaobai had already arrived at the alley entrance with the staff.

It was already dark, and only a few streetlights were flashing.

"Where is he?" Lin Shaobai asked.

Staff member: "Huh? I told that girl to wait here, how come she disappeared in the blink of an eye? I didn't make her wait that long, could it be that she couldn't wait and ran away early?"

Lin Shaobai said helplessly, "You wouldn't..."

"No, no, no! Director Lin, I'm not lying to you, I'm telling the truth."

The staff member quickly explained, afraid that Lin Shaobai would misunderstand him.

"Alright, that's all, you can go back to your work."

The staff member initially wanted to explain further, but then decided against it.

A short while later, Assistant Liu ran up to Lin Shaobai with a bag on his back and another bag in his arms.

Lin Shaobai usually has his assistant, Xiao Liu, by his side, and he trusts this assistant the most.

Bringing too many people can actually be troublesome.

Based on online recommendations, the two decided to go to a nearby restaurant for dinner.

The buildings here are mostly made of stone and wood, with a classical and elegant style and elaborate Baroque decorations.

Assistant Xiao Liu was visiting Pakistan for the first time and couldn't help but take many photos.

Sometimes he would even ask Lin Shaobai to take pictures of him.

"Boss, boss, hurry up and take a picture of me here!"

"Hey boss, take a picture of this side too!"

The two slowly turned into an alley, when suddenly a dark figure darted out in front of them.

"Boss, be careful!"

Assistant Xiao Liu immediately hid behind Lin Shaobai!
Lin Shaobai's clothes were being pulled back by his assistant, Xiao Liu, until they were all wrinkled.

"Hey……"

"Boss, watch out!"

"Can you stop dragging me? Look who it is!"

Assistant Xiao Liu was extremely timid, and only dared to open her eyes and look ahead after hearing Lin Shaobai's words.

What you can see is Zhou Ye dressed in casual clothes.

A simple outfit for a female college student: a T-shirt and shorts.

This time, she also wore her familiar black baseball cap and black mask to cover her already small face.

So bundled up, Assistant Liu couldn't tell who it was at first glance.

"Who is this?"

"Zhou Ye."

Lin Shaobai recognized his girlfriend at a glance.

He was equally shocked to see Zhou Ye in Ba State.

No matter how curious he was, nothing could compare to his assistant, Xiao Liu, tugging at his clothes so hard he was almost suffocating.

"Oh! So it's Brother Zhou Ye. In that case, you two chat, I'll step back."

Assistant Xiao Liu, with her high emotional intelligence, stepped back ten meters, leaving Lin Shaobai some space.

After watching the person walk away, Zhou Ye said, "Hey, what do you say about me to them in private? Why do you call me 'little brother'?"

"He probably knows about our relationship. He's just saying that on purpose. I asked him, 'Why did you come here?'"

"What do you say?"

Zhou Ye took a step forward with his hands on his hips, blinking his bright eyes and staring intently at Lin Shaobai.

Lin Shaobai looked around, then grabbed Zhou Ye and pulled her into his arms.

"Eh?"

Before Zhou Ye could react, she was pulled into his arms, her nose bumping against Lin Shaobai's firm chest.

The next second she felt Lin Shaobai's arms encircle her, making her unable to move.

"Xiao Lin, you..."

"Long time no see, can't I give you a hug, darling?"

"..."

Zhou Ye's face gradually turned red.

In China, two people would never hug like this in the street.

If you hug someone, it'll make headlines.

Then he'll be cursed by Lin Shaobai's fans from his ancestors to the eighth generation.

Our ancestors, who have long been buried in the earth and at peace, are still being dragged out by fans and criticized.

Fortunately, fortunately, this is in Pakistan.

"When did you become so mushy, calling me 'darling'?"

"Aren't you?"

"Of course I am!"

"That's it."

"Xiaolin, I missed you so much. That's why I bought a ticket and came here. It took me a while... You won't be mad at me for suddenly coming all this way."

"It's not your fault, I'm happy to see you."

"But now I have to rely on you."

Zhou Ye was telling the truth; this trip cost a lot of money.

The money in this account was all saved from making movies and TV series.

Zhou Ye isn't a famous celebrity now, so he still feels the pinch when spending tens of thousands of yuan.

"You're out of money?"

"Mmm. Waaah. If you don't take care of me, I'll be sleeping on the streets."

Zhou Ye shook his head vigorously and nudged Lin Shaobai's body with his nose.

"Hahahaha... You're even sleeping on the streets? I'm really impressed. It's okay, it's okay, leave it all to me, don't worry."

Lin Shaobai couldn't resist his senior sister's coquettishness, so he patted her head and continued with a smile, "It's no big deal. I'll definitely put a cardboard box for you on the roadside so that at least your butt won't get cold when you're sleeping on the streets."

Zhou Ye's smile froze on his face, as if time had stood still at that moment.

The senior sister couldn't believe her ears—what the hell was she hearing!

"What did you say?"

Zhou Ye's tone turned dangerous, and he narrowed his eyes as he continued to ask.

Lin Shaobai still smiled and said, "I said I'd at least help you put a cardboard box in there... Hey!"

He was speaking when Zhou Ye grabbed his face, the force not too light, not too heavy.

"Just kidding, just kidding. Senior sister, I'm just kidding. How could I really let you sleep on the streets?"

"..."

Zhou Ye released his grip.

She was joking the whole time.

How could you possibly go abroad without booking a hotel and a return flight?
"I traveled to many places to get here, so you have to make it up to me."

"Alright, alright, let's eat first."

"Ah."

Lin Shaobai turned around and called to his assistant, Xiao Liu.

Xiao Liu obediently ran over.

Regarding his boss's romantic luck, he said he could only observe and not comment.

Let the boss handle his personal relationships; he's just there to assist.

After having a meal at a nearby restaurant, the three of them went for a walk in the distance.

A Chinese girl walked past them during that time.

A moment later, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin Shaobai's back again.

"Why does that person look so much like Lin Shaobai?"

"It really looks like it, that back view is so similar."

This Chinese girl doesn't follow celebrities, but she does watch TV dramas.

She had seen all the dramas Lin Shaobai acted in and had some impression of him.

"That's Lin Shaobai. Then who's the girl next to her?"

"Oh my god! Could Lin Shaobai be in a relationship?"

"A top celebrity dating?"

"What explosive news."

After thinking it through, the girl made up her mind to take a picture of Lin Shaobai, but when she chased after him, she found that he had disappeared.

"Where are the people..."
