Chapter 498: I’m Introverted
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
As soon as Murong Qiao’s live-stream started, hundreds of thousands of people watched it online in less than 10 minutes.
Murong Qiao couldn’t see this number of people or the comments. Only the staff could see it. However, even the staff who had seen many celebrities’ popularity couldn’t help but click their tongues and sigh when they saw this growth rate.
“Hehe, looking at this face, I suddenly have the urge to be Xian Yu’s brother-in-law.”
“Previous poster, do you know that your idea is very dangerous? If Xian Yu sees it, he’ll definitely beat you up with a dark expression.”
“I’m willing to bear such a dangerous matter for everyone! Let all the suffering come for me! I’ll only be the only one to see Little Sister’s beauty!!!”
“You’re starting to daydream now, right?”
The flood of comments filled the entire screen. Most of them were related to Xian Yu, and many were book fans attracted by the popularity of the live-stream. When they realized that it was Moon G.o.ddess, they also spoke enthusiastically.
Murong Qiao’s live-stream was as lively as the celebrities’.
This time, the five celebrities were in a car, and the five CEOs were in another car. Under the arrangement of the production team, the artistes had long set up a live-stream room to watch the event.
There were only two people in the artistes’ car now. One was Xian Yu, and the other was Lu Qizhi who had arrived early.
However, the atmosphere was indescribably quiet. It was so quiet that it was the opposite of the laughter on the screen.
Lu Qizhi, who was usually cheerful and could even interpret the word “noisy” by shouting alone, shrank again and again. If not for his face, no one would have recognized him as an idol.
“Lu Qizhi is so silly. Aren’t you usually quite friendly? Xian Yu is right in front of you. Why is your face filled with resistance?”
“It’s rare to see such a quiet Lu Qizhi, and it had to be because of Xian Yu. Even a husky would stop sometimes.”
“Xian Yu was so angry when he was woken up. Even I wouldn’t dare to provoke him.”
Most of the comments were from Xian Yu and Lu Qizhi’s fans. Just like how everyone knew that Lu Qizhi was lively and talkative, everyone had an equally deep impression of Xian Yu’s morning temper.
Lu Qizhi was carefree in front of the media and fans like a small sun. At this moment, he chose the seat furthest away from Xian Yu in the car and pretended to be focused as he stared out of the window at the unusual silence. “Qizhi, aren’t you going to say h.e.l.lo?” Even the staff couldn’t help but ask. It was really not that he wanted to ask, but too many people in the comments had said it. The staff couldn’t help but mention it.
Hearing this, Lu Qizhi turned around and glanced at the staff before secretly looking at Xian Yu.
At this moment, Xian Yu had a book covering his face, looking like he was catching up on his sleep and not wishing to be bothered. Lu Qizhi didn’t dare to take another look and retracted his gaze.
Ahem.” Lu Qizhi coughed. His voice subconsciously softened as an embarra.s.sed smile appeared on his face.
“I’m introverted.”
As soon as these words were spoken, not only the staff, but even the comments were filled with question marks.
“Do you want to look straight at the screen and say that again??”
“Redefining the word “introverted”.”
“Anyone can say this, but only you, Lu Qizhi, can’t!!”
“Should I say that it’s indeed you, [smoke]?”
After someone heard Lu Qizhi’s words, they immediately photoshopped an emoticon and pasted it on the screen, causing everyone to flood the screen.
Lu Qizhi before getting into the car: “There are so many seniors. I’m so nervous! What should I do? Will I make a fool of myself this time-” After getting into the car, Lu Qizhi: Quiet as a chicken.jpg It was quite an image.
Fortunately, even if Lu Qizhi and Xian Yu didn’t interact much, the popularity of the comments only increased.
In fact, everyone in Xian Yu’s live-stream was feeling sorry for him, saying that he was too tired from acting and very indulgent about sleeping.
“It’s clearly just his jawline, but I actually felt that he looks extremely handsome and charming. It’s like a G.o.d that descended to the mortal world and was carved into my heart. I’m indeed hopeless.”
“It’s fine, I think so too. By the way, the screen still shows Xian Yu’s neck and the side of his face.”
“Simple and concise. I’m in. What about you guys?”
“Seeing that everyone’s speech is so bold, I’m much more relieved, [dog head]”
The short silence in the car was interrupted.
“Sorry, sorry, I’m late-” A clear female voice suddenly came from the direction of the car door.
When Lu Qizhi heard the third person’s voice, he looked in the direction of the car door as if he had seen his savior.
A beautiful and pet.i.te girl walked up in two steps with a professional idol smile on her lips.
Chu Ruobai was the only girl among the five celebrities. The girl group she is part of had recently debuted and she was currently taking on the role of an actress as well. She was pure and cute to the outside world and was commonly known as a soft and cute girl.
Lu Qizhi blinked. The photo he had just seen last night matched the person in front of him. However, compared to the exquisite photo, he felt that she didn’t look that good. Moreover, the traces of makeup were a little too heavy.
Lu Qizhi still remembered that his manager had asked him to interact less before coming.
“h.e.l.lo, can you lower your-” Lu Qizhi was about to remind her to keep her voice down.
Chu Ruobai leaped over in a few steps and made a few loud sounds without any hesitation. She rushed in front of him and greeted him with a smile.
“h.e.l.lo, Lu Qizhi! I especially like your new song!”
Before coming, Chu Ruobai had learned that among the four men, only Lu Qizhi was more silly and easy to get along with. Therefore, as soon as she came up, she aimed at her target and pretended to be lively as she picked a topic with the other party.
However, unlike Chu Ruobai’s friendly and bright voice, Lu Qizhi looked at her diagonally in horror.
Coincidentally, she met the cold gaze from the other side.
Lu Qizhi: Cardiac arrest.
This expression was directly screenshotted by the netizens on the bullet screen and made into an emoticon package that was saved and circulated.
“I think Lu Qizhi must have a lot to say to Chu Ruobai. [Watching the show.jpg]”
“More than that, I feel that Chu Ruobai’s move was more like holding a knife to
Lu Qizhi’s neck.”
“At that moment, Lu Qizhi finally understood what despair was.”
“L-lower your voice. Senior Xian Yu is catching up on his sleep.” Lu Qizhi tried to remind her.
Chu Ruobai belatedly looked behind her, and the bright smile on her face suddenly became awkward. “…Xian, Senior Xian Yu.”
Meeting Xian Yu’s irritable gaze, Chu Ruobai almost couldn’t maintain her perfect smile. She was so frightened that she didn’t dare to apologize.
Xian Yu half-opened his eyes and looked at them without saying anything. He only glanced at the car and realized that his Little Sister was not here yet.
Then, he closed his eyes again. However, this time, he wanted to put on his earphones to soundproof himself.
He originally didn’t want to come so early, but thinking that his Little Sister would also come, Xian Yu immediately couldn’t wait to rush over.
In the end, the production team told him that the celebrities and the bosses would travel in different cars. Xian Yu simply started to catch up on his sleep in the car.
Last night, he’d stayed up all night to read Three Thousand Realms. Xian Yu urgently needed to replenish his sleep time.
As for the traffic in the live-stream? He didn’t lack these now.
Other than his Little Sister, Xian Yu’s attention wouldn’t be diverted to anyone else.
Seeing Xian Yu continue sleeping without saying anything, Chu Ruobai and Lu Qizhi heaved a sigh of relief in unison.
“That was close.” Chu Ruobai patted her chest.
Her actions were deliberately a little cute, immediately causing the comments
to sigh at how obedient their daughter was.
Lu Qizhi didn’t notice that much. At this moment, his mind was filled with the joy of surviving a calamity.
He gestured. “There’s still some time before we set off. Why don’t you find a place to sit and sleep too?”
Lu Qizhi didn’t dare to talk to Xian Yu now, and listened to her manager. Her relationship with Chu Ruobai couldn’t be considered warm yet as well. Thus, she planned to continue pretending to be silent.
This made Chu Ruobai stop talking about the topic she had originally wanted
to discuss with Lu Qizhi..
