The Rebirth of a Top Star

When Gu Leqi left with Gu Leyi, they left their belongings at Song Shiyuan's house.

Gu Leyi felt a little regretful that she hadn't seen Shen Nanqiao yet. She hadn't actually met Shen Nanqiao, and she hadn't seized the opportunity this time.

Song Shiyuan placed the things Gu Leyi brought in a spot in the foyer. He really didn't know what to do with them, and now wasn't a good time to contact them.

Even today, when Song Shiyuan returns home, he can still see the gifts he brought for Shen Nanqiao.

Today I really want to throw away all these things related to Shen Nanqiao. Out of sight, out of mind.

Song Shiyuan, who was bent over, suddenly remembered something, stood up, took a key from the entrance, went out silently, and then opened the door downstairs.

Everything was arranged the same as before, except that no one had cleaned it and it was covered in dust.

Ignoring all that, Song Shiyuan walked over and sat down on the sofa where he always sat.

Shen Nanqiao's figure, her scent, and those memories lingered in Song Shiyuan's mind.

Those brief few days of tenderness have vanished without a trace, as if they never happened. Sometimes, when Song Shiyuan sees Shen Nanqiao's messages online, he feels dazed, as if she were a complete stranger, someone he has never interacted with.

Shen Nanqiao's variety show is not a live broadcast. In order to prevent some unexpected events, she is now a big star. Even if she does not deliberately act out, there will be staff following behind Shen Nanqiao closely.

Shen Nanqiao was ushered into the dressing room, where she was greeted by a sea of ​​high-end cosmetics. Looking at the eyeshadow palette in front of her, Shen Nanqiao handed her phone to Xiao Ju beside her.

He silently closed his eyes.

Sometimes people just want to give up.

That's how Shen Nanqiao is. She only leisurely goes out after finishing her makeup.

Shen Nanqiao thought she would see the same people mentioned before. Apart from Zheng Yiyi, whom she saw at the door at the beginning, Shen Nanqiao saw Lu Qinian and Gu Ning standing together.

Gu Ning, it has indeed been a long time.

Shen Nanqiao saw Zheng Yiyi coming out of another dressing room and walked up to greet the two of them with surprise.

It was obvious that Lu Qinian was happier with Zheng Yiyi; his eyes lit up instantly.

Gu Ning also saw Zheng Yiyi and greeted her politely. Following the direction of the people, she saw Shen Nanqiao. It had been a long time since she had seen him.

Shen Nanqiao nodded to Gu Ning, and for some reason, she realized that Gu Ning had changed.

At least, the way they looked at me was different; their eyes were calm and unwavering, even somewhat unfamiliar.

After Shen Nanqiao nodded and exchanged greetings, Lu Qinian and Zheng Yiyi, who were standing to the side, both noticed the beautiful Shen Nanqiao.

Shen Nanqiao walked over with a smile and greeted Lu Qinian, but ignored Zheng Yiyi; the two didn't have much to talk about.

"You look radiant after just a few days," Zheng Yi joked with Shen Nanqiao, though it was unclear whether she was saying it intentionally in front of the other two, her tone betraying a hint of awkwardness.

Shen Nanqiao was surprised, but didn't expose him. "Yes, it's been a long time."

A smile and a nod, leaving no trace.

It seems the two really haven't seen each other for a long time.

Shen Nanqiao didn't know what Zheng Yiyi's intentions were, but she simply followed along with her.

The four of them walked out together, and Shen Nanqiao suddenly remembered to ask, "Is it just the four of us today?"

Zheng Yi nodded, and Gu Ning explained, "At first, there were a few more people who wanted to join, but for some reason, in the end, only a few of us were left."

Shen Nanqiao didn't say anything, but she had some guesses in her mind. Too many guests at once would make it seem like there was no focus. Besides, in the current situation, it was obvious that the four of them were more interesting to talk about, and they also happened to be the main quartet in the show.

The director is clearly not stupid; he knows which way is north, south, east, and west.

Shen Nanqiao sat on the sofa. They were going to start with games that didn't require physical activity, a series of questions and answers, before moving on to the rest of the filming. Shen Nanqiao and the others were clearly aware of this. They followed the rhythm of the group.

Until a new game came along, which was more like a prank than a game.

Shen Nanqiao only saw the host say, "Now we have taken your personal cell phones from your assistants and are about to dial the number at the top of the phone. You have five minutes to find out what the other party is doing, but you cannot ask them directly."

After the rules were explained, Shen Nanqiao was pondering when she saw the other party take out Gu Ning's phone. After Gu Ning turned on the phone, she went straight to the phone's call history.

This is a bit tricky. Xiaoju knew about this beforehand and told her about it. This part was not included in the initial rehearsal. In today's society, where everyone uses WeChat, Shen Nanqiao did not realize that it was originally the most primitive telephone.

The fake WeChat account at the top is Fang Zihe's, obviously a publicity stunt for the upcoming movie. Shen Nanqiao has now reverted to her original workaholic self.

Hype and other such topics are no problem for him. Even if it were for no other reason than the movie, Fang Zihe would not refuse Shen Nanqiao.

Shen Nanqiao now wished she could slap her forehead, clearly having forgotten who was at the top of her phone screen. The game had already begun, and Shen Nanqiao's mental whirlwind was no longer keeping up with the changing situation.

Gu Ning's agent was unsurprisingly present. Gu Ning's agent is quite famous in the industry, so no one was surprised. The few audience members present also created an interesting atmosphere.

Shen Nanqiao was left only with the tension of looking at her phone.

Standing behind, Xiao Ju could tell that Shen Nanqiao clearly didn't know what was going on.

Finally, it was Shen Nanqiao's turn. Gu Ning's turn was clearly just a mockup.

Everything went smoothly. The host looked over and questioned Shen Nanqiao as she opened her phone, then handed over control of the phone to the production team.

Shen Nanqiao looked at the other party clicking on the original icon, the sorting above, and the top one was a single-word note. Shen Nanqiao's heart sank.

This doesn't seem right. I haven't used phone mode in a long time. Could this be someone else's?

At this moment, the host thoughtfully raised his phone to cover the notes at the bottom, only revealing the top note, a single character "宋" (Song).

Yes, this was the last nickname Shen Nanqiao gave Song Shiyuan. She still couldn't bear to delete or block him, so she let Song Shiyuan lie obediently in her phone's call log.

Finally, at this moment, it was uncovered and brought back to the light of day.

Shen Nanqiao remained calm. She wasn't sure if she would get through immediately, or if the phone would ring for a long time without being answered.

It all seemed to be a situation that Shen Nanqiao could accept. She was even somewhat looking forward to it, and used this excuse to make the call.

Everyone in the room was watching the situation closely, including Shen Nanqiao. When Xiaoju saw the character "Song" displayed on the big screen, she realized why Shen Nanqiao had been winking at her earlier.

The call connected in just two rings, and a deep, hoarse voice answered.

"Hey."
