Qi Xingchen really liked the two horses. He took out his phone and took a few photos of them from different angles and poses before sending them to Bai Ye.
He missed Bai Ye a little after not seeing him for half a day. He wondered what he was doing now. Recording a show? Training with a trainee? Helping the production team with a song?
Thinking of the song, he suddenly realized that the production team had asked Bai Ye and Wei Qin to come up with an original song. Now, Wei Qin didn't know how to …
Could he be with Bai Ye?!
Qi Xingchen scratched his head anxiously. At this moment, his phone vibrated twice. Bai Ye replied.
Bo: [Very beautiful horses.]
Xing Xing: [My brother sent them. I like them very much.]
Bo: [You like horses? I have a few ponies. They are more docile and suitable to be raised for fun. Come over and pick two after the show.]
Xing Xing: [… No need, no need! I travel all over the world. How can I have time to raise a bunch of horses? It's good enough that I can take care of these two horses.]
Bo: [Okay. You can come over anytime if you want to play.]
Qi Xingchen didn't want Bai Ye to think that he liked to play, so he continued to decline. But on second thought, if he could take the opportunity to visit Bai Ye's house …
That seemed great.
Xing Xing: [Red Panda Kneeling and Kowtowing. GIF]
Xing Xing: [Thank you, Your Majesty!]
Bai Ye looked at the little panda emojis kneeling and kowtowing in a row and laughed silently.
Thinking that he could visit Bai Ye's house in the future, Qi Xingchen felt better than before. But he still wanted to know if Bai Ye was with Wei Qin.
He walked back to his room from the stables without turning on the lights. Science had shown that darkness could increase one's courage.
He looked at the "video call" button on the screen. With his dark eyes, he clenched his teeth and pressed it.
Twenty seconds later, the video call was connected.
Bai Ye had probably just finished taking a shower. He didn't have time to tighten his bathrobe, and his collar was open, revealing a large portion of his collarbone. Water dripped from his hair. A line of sparkling water droplets slid down his sharp jawline, past his chin and protruding Adam's apple …
Qi Xingchen felt that his throat was a little dry.
"Is she in the room?" Bai Ye was the first to speak. The water droplets on his face quivered with the movement of his Adam's apple. "Why don't you turn on the light?"
Qi Xingchen gulped. "I was in a hurry to come in, so I didn't turn it on."
"I've eaten dinner."
Qi Xingchen nodded and added, "My sister cooked it. Her cooking … has a weight-loss effect."
Bai Ye smiled. "You don't have to lose weight. You look good on camera now."
This was the second time that Bai Ye had praised him for his good looks. Qi Xingchen was dazed by the compliment and asked subconsciously, "Am I better looking than Wei Qin?"
Bai Ye was stunned.
Why was Wei Qin suddenly brought up?
Then he remembered that when he was punished for Wei Qin, his little fan was jealous. She even asked him why he wanted to be someone else's kitten.
"She's jealous for a long time," Bai Ye couldn't help but mutter.
"What did you say?" Qi Xingchen didn't hear clearly and widened his eyes.
"Nothing."
Life wasn't easy. Bai Ye sighed. "You're better looking than anyone else."
"… R-Really? Don't lie to me."
"I'm not lying. You're the best looking and brightest star in the night sky."
Bai Ye's lips curled up slightly when he said this. There was a smile in his voice, but his tone was very serious. Qi Xingchen suddenly felt all the blood in his body flow to his face. His limbs went numb and his brain stopped thinking.
Was he really the brightest star in Bai Ye's night sky?
No way … Bai Ye said this to comfort him.
Qi Xingchen shook his head and shook himself out of his beautiful fantasy. Then he finally remembered the purpose of his video. He licked his lips and said, "That … Are you alone in the room?"
"Of course. I'm taking a shower. No one can come in even if they want to. "
"Oh … No." Qi Xingchen suddenly thought of something. "When I played the video for you, you were taking a shower?"
"Yes."
"Halfway through?"
"Yes."
No wonder Bai Ye didn't even have time to tie his bathrobe. Qi Xingchen said shamefully, "I'm sorry to disturb your shower. Don't worry about me next time. Finish your shower first."
"It's okay. I'm just wiping my hands." Bai Ye played it down. "You're more important."
.
Speaking of Liang Jing, Qi Xingchen was actually going to visit Jing 'an Hospital this time.
Firstly, he wanted to visit Tao Xuan. Secondly, Liang Jing's project was being done there. He had to ask Liang Jing and Tao Tao how they were doing now.
He woke up naturally and stretched his muscles in the yard. Qi Yuji dressed neatly and walked past him. "Xing Xing, I'm going to the spa with my friends today. I can't have breakfast with you. The chef just cooked the porridge. Remember to eat it as soon as possible. It'll hurt your stomach if it gets cold. "
"Got it." Qi Xingchen was very happy despite being nagged. "Take care of yourself too. Call me if you need anything."
"No, I can't let those girls see your handsome face. I'm afraid they'll steal my brother."
Could they steal her brother? Qi Xingchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said that he would never be stolen by other sisters and asked, "Is the breeder here?"
"Yes, he came at five in the morning."
"That's good. Two or three million horses. You must treat them well."
"It's okay. It's not expensive," Qi Yuji said. "Two or three million US dollars for two Ferghana horses in such good condition. Jiaze didn't lose out at all."
Two or three million … US dollars???
Qi Xingchen almost spat out blood. It turned out that he didn't think about the word "beautiful" last night.
But with the word "beautiful", the price of the horses was nearly seven times higher!
He was still thinking about returning the money to Qi Jiaze, but now it seemed that he couldn't return it for a while.
Xing Xing, who only had a few million in his account, shed tears of poverty and ignorance.
Jing 'an Hospital was not far from the Qi family. At ten o' clock in the morning, Qi Xingchen wrapped himself up tightly and drove to the hospital.
On the way, he received a call from Qi Yunxiao, saying that the results of Dongcheng TV's handling of under-the-table operations were out. After Qi Xingchen heard it, he asked Qi Yunxiao to wait for his call.
He sneaked into the hospital building through the back door and learned about the situation from the nurse. He learned that Tao Xuan had been transferred from the intensive care unit to the ordinary VIP ward. Qi Xingchen found the ward according to the room number and unexpectedly bumped into Liang Jing at the door.
— Has Liang Jing already started to treat Tao Xuan?
— Has "Peaches of the Night" entered the plot where the cannon fodder is about to kill Liang Jing?
Liang Jing glanced at him and asked curiously, "Xing Xing, what are you doing at the hospital?"
"… You can recognize me?" Qi Xingchen was quite surprised.
Afraid of being discovered by the paparazzi, he covered himself with a mask, hat, and sunglasses.
"I can recognize you just by looking at your back." Liang Jing's eyes showed a hint of anticipation. "Are you here to visit the patient … or to find me?"
"I'm visiting the patient and also to see you," Qi Xingchen said honestly.
The clinical effect of the recently developed drugs was so-so. In addition, his tutor was unwell, so he threw a few patients to him. Liang Jing was almost busy from morning to night. Knowing that Xing Xing had returned to H City, he didn't take the time to visit Xing Xing.
He didn't expect that Xing Xing would take the initiative to visit him today. Liang Jing's accumulated fatigue dissipated a lot. He stepped forward and held Qi Xingchen's wrist. His voice was gentle. "You've lost weight."
"Let's go in first." Qi Xingchen quickly pulled his hand away.
Liang Jing stopped in his tracks. The two of them had always been very close. When they were in school, they often put their arms around each other's shoulders. Qi Xingchen never showed any resistance to his touch.
Did Xing Xing really … not like him at all?
Looking at the other person's back, Liang Jing frowned. Qi Xingchen didn't wait for him. He walked straight to the bed.
Tao Xuan must have just woken up. He looked sleepy and turned his head to look out the window like the last time they met. Qi Xingchen was afraid of scaring him, so he called out softly, "Tao Xuan."
Tao Xuan didn't say anything. He turned his head back.
"How are you feeling recently? Are you better?"
Before asking this question, Qi Xingchen didn't expect him to answer. However, he saw his mouth open slightly. "Just like that."
It was an improvement for him to be able to communicate with outsiders. Qi Xingchen was stunned for a few seconds and asked a few more questions. For example, did he need to take extra classes? Did he crave food? Did he want to go out to play?
If Tao Xuan's condition could improve, then Liang Jing wouldn't need to donate a kidney.
However, reality told him that he was overthinking. After that, Tao Xuan didn't talk to him anymore.
Qi Xingchen sighed and left the ward. He was thinking of a solution. When Liang Jing saw him come out, he put away his chaotic thoughts and returned to his role as a doctor. "Can you communicate with him normally?"
"No."
"Unfortunately," Liang Jing's voice lowered. "It'll be good for his recovery if his mentality changes."
"He's not cooperating with the treatment?"
"He's not very cooperative." Liang Jing shook his head. "He's even very resistant to the routine checkups twice a day. He's only a little better when his sister comes."
Hearing the word "sister", Qi Xingchen immediately raised his guard. "You … have met his sister?"
"I have." Liang Jing didn't know why he had such a big reaction.
"What's your impression of his sister?"
Liang Jing was puzzled. "I heard that his sister is a celebrity, but I feel that she doesn't have the airs of a celebrity. She's very approachable and a gentle and kind girl."
At this point, Liang Jing paused. "It would be better if she could visit Tao Xuan more often."
They had only met once, but Liang Jing had such a high opinion of Tao Tao. It was enough to see how powerful the heroine's halo was. Qi Xingchen anxiously scratched the back of his neck and found a blind spot.
He asked, "Sister Tao Tao only came to see Tao Xuan once?"
"Yes."
Almost a month had passed since Liang Jing went to the hospital for clinical treatment. Qi Xingchen was surprised. "Could it be that you weren't there when she came and didn't see her?"
"Tao Xuan was a key observation target. His daily life was recorded. According to the records, Tao Tao only came once, not as often as Jiaze. "
"???" Qi Xingchen's head hurt. "What is Jiaze doing here?!"
"He came three times to deliver exercise books and textbooks. Tao Xuan was annoyed by him," Liang Jing said with a smile. "But I hope he can come more often because Tao Xuan feels more alive in front of him … How should I describe it … He no longer looks like a porcelain doll, but a living person."
Hearing this, Qi Xingchen vaguely had a few thoughts in his mind. They weren't clear enough and needed to be sorted out.
He said goodbye to Liang Jing, and Liang Jing remembered something. "By the way, Jiaze asked me to teach you how to ride a horse. When are you free? "
"I'm free all week. It's up to you."
.
After leaving the hospital, Little President Qi decided to inspect his business.
After this morning, he sadly realized that it was difficult to earn money from acting contracts. He could only rely on squeezing the income from the marine world and the diamond mine to supplement his empty wallet.
He didn't want to make a big fuss, so he bought a ticket to enter the park. He also went to see his brother Xiangxiang and Big Brother Shark from the Fossil Museum.
After walking around and seeing that everything was in order, he walked along the path to the beach with satisfaction and observed the yacht docked at the harbor.
He didn't know how much this thing could be sold for, at least a few million … But would his sister be sad if he sold it?
Just as he was thinking about it, An Ran called. "Xing Xing, what do you think now? Do you want to keep your mic off?"
Qi Xingchen took a few seconds to realize that An Ran was talking about Kevin.
Calculating the time, the public opinion was about to reach its peak today. An Ran must be anxious. Qi Xingchen thought for a moment and said, "There will be a response in an hour."
"How do you plan to respond?"
"Dong Cheng will do it, but I can't tell you the details. Don't worry, sister An Ran."
Qi Xingchen was young, but he was very reliable. An Ran was relieved to hear his confidence. She reminded him to be careful of paparazzi and try not to go to crowded places.
Qi Xingchen, who had just finished his tour of the marine world, agreed. He hung up the phone, opened Weibo, and clicked on My Time's topic square.
As he expected, Kevin's fans, C Entertainment's water army, brainwashed passers-by, and netizens who hated the rich gathered together and labeled him as an enemy.
[Qi Xingchen is a bully. He doesn't deserve to be a mentor!]
[If you have money, go back and inherit your family property. Don't pollute the entertainment industry, okay?]
[Don't you want your IDs? You can't afford to offend rich and powerful capitalists. Be careful that one day, Second Young Master Qi will make you disappear from the world.]
[I really want to know how much money Qi Xingchen spent to sneak into Time. They can just shove anyone into their variety show. I think Dongcheng is done for.]
Of course, there were also many fans and passers-by who spoke up for him.
[Qi Xingchen's professional ability is obvious to all. Please watch the show before you fart, okay?]
[He stayed up all night to train with the students of Class F, but you chose to ignore him? Why are you so sure that he got into the show because of his power?]
[I'm just a passer-by. I don't care about Kevin. I admire Qi Xingchen's seriousness. His notebook is almost full.]
[My dance teacher, Qi, is really good at dancing. I heard that he has only been practicing for a year and a half. He must have put in a lot of hard work.]
Seeing these lines, Qi Xingchen couldn't help but feel happy. It wasn't for praise, but because his efforts were seen and recognized by the public.
He didn't embarrass himself, nor did he embarrass Xing Guang, who had worked hard to follow him.
He took out his phone and dialed Qi Yunxiao's number.
An hour later, Dong Cheng TV released an announcement.
— — Dong Cheng TV Official Weibo: In late August, an unknown sum of money appeared in the accounts of our Operations Director, Project Manager, and Chief Editor. After investigation, it was confirmed that this sum of money was a bribe given to the three by an entertainment company to modify the competition results of their trainees.
At the beginning of the broadcast of My Time, such a vicious incident occurred. Dong Cheng TV management conducted deep introspection and made the following decisions:
1. Fire all employees involved in this vicious incident and return the bribe money.
2. Fully investigate the My Time project team to ensure that such a situation will not happen again.
3. To ensure fairness, My Time will keep the voting channel database open until the end of the show. The public is welcome to supervise and inspect.
4. Open a special customer service hotline to accept and answer the audience's questions and suggestions about the fairness of the show.
Dong Cheng TV once again deeply apologizes to the audience. Although we have already investigated this matter before the competition, and although the trainees involved have withdrawn from the competition due to personal reasons, we will not shirk our responsibility as long as it happens. Here, we do not ask for forgiveness. We only hope that everyone can give Dong Cheng another chance and continue to supervise My Time in the form of full transparency.
Finally, we express our sincere respect and gratitude to the five mentors. Thank you to the five mentors for your contribution and fair judgment.
2020.09.25
When the netizens saw the announcement, they were dumbfounded.
Since the launch of various online talent shows, there had been many complaints about under-the-table manipulation. This was the only one that had exposed themselves.
Did Dong Cheng TV want to go bankrupt?
However, after carefully studying the announcement, the netizens found that the under-the-table manipulation was discovered before the competition.
In other words, the under-the-table manipulation was not successful, and it did not affect the results of the first round of competition.
Dong Cheng TV's actions of hanging themselves in the southeast and promising transparency of the data showed that they were serious about the show. Their words were full of sincerity.
… F * ck, I actually have a good impression of Dong Cheng. What's wrong with me?
As soon as the announcement was released, under the public's discussion and the popularity of the show, "Dong Cheng's announcement" immediately became a hot search.
When the topic started, some netizens expressed their satisfaction with Dong Cheng's handling of the situation. Their favorability increased.
Others were so surprised that they did not know what to say.
The announcement mentioned "the trainee involved withdraws from the competition." It went without saying who the trainee involved was.
Kevin's fans and the haters who scolded Qi Xingchen without thinking were slapped in the face.
They scolded Qi Xingchen for several days for spending money on the show. In the end, Kevin was the one who spent money on the show!!!
Does your face hurt? It hurts! It really fucking hurts!
Kevin's fans were as quiet as chickens until the program team of "My Time" released a video.
In the video, Kevin used Rap to attack the judges for not being free and Qi Xingchen for "using money to decide the winner."
Qi Xingchen quickly retorted, "If you want to be a Chinese idol, you have to learn Chinese first." If you can't, please go back to ABC. Every word was powerful and sonorous.
In an instant, it ignited the patriotism of the netizens!
Kevin's biggest fan was the first to speak: [I apologize for my attacks on Mr. Qi Xingchen these days. From now on, this Weibo will be closed and blacklisted. I hope Kevin will take care of himself.]
Then, Sister Station left: [The website has been running for so long, condensing the blood and sweat of many people. It's a pity that we didn't find a worthy idol. From now on, this website will be closed and no more content related to a certain male star. Thank you for your company. See you again.]
The remaining fans had nothing to say. They rushed to the topic square and Qi Xingchen's and Kevin's Weibo.
[I'm not a good person. Not only will I stop being a fan, but I'll also scold him. F * ck your stupid Kevin. If you don't like it, don't come. Hurry up and leave!!]
[I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I didn't see Kevin's character clearly. I apologize to Teacher Qi. Thank you, Teacher Qi, for protecting our culture. I respect you.]
[F * ck, this Rap is so hot!!! So why didn't I become a fan of Teacher Little Qi, who had good professional skills and was handsome, but chose to become a fan of foreign trash? Was I cursed by K? I want to be a fan of Teacher Qi!]
[I want to be a fan of Teacher Qi too!]
[Sisters, count me in. If you want to be a fan, let's be a fan together!]
Thus, the entire Weibo became a scene of people leaving their fans and returning to their fans.
But what about that foreign trash?
He signed the contract termination agreement on the spot and went back to his free ABC.
