Chapter 113. Laughter nights (3)"Okay, Ms. Xiao Rin, You are still 16, right. It would have been a dream for you to debut with such a hit drama, right?"
After asking the question from Ren, Bai Zhu soon s.h.i.+fted towards Chen Mei and Xiao Rin.
"Yes, I think I am still in a dream. I never thought of doing «The stars above» and getting so much applause for my role."
"Your role was indeed great in the drama. I still remembered crying when I saw your character hiding away your tears in the drama but how did you get the role?"
Xiao Rin glanced at Ren for a second when she heard the question.
Ren also glanced at him and then Jiang Wan who was standing outside the stage.
He was looking calm like nothing had happened. Ren understood from his expression that they wanted to reveal some of Xiao Rin"s past to make a image for her.
"Actually, if it was not because of Br-Senior Ren, then I would not have gotten the role."
"Does Mr. Xin Ren have a hand on it?"
Bai Zhu asked with a expression that said that he had founded something interesting and Xiao Rin just nodded her head as she continued to speak.
"Yeah, actually he was the one who wanted me to audition for the role. He even practised with me, because he believed that I would be able to play the role well."
"Mr. Ren and you are from the same agency? Did he saw you in one of your acting cla.s.ses?"
Xiao Rin shook his head when she heard that and answered.
"No, I was in the singing department when we had first met."
"Singing department??"
Bai Zhu put on a confused expression when he heard that and the audiences were also confused on their seats as they curiously glanced at Xiao Rin.
"Yeah, I was originally in the acting department but...."
After that Xiao Rin started narrating her story of being bullied and how she even thought of giving up her acting.
And how Ren helped her our and took care of her and asked her to act in the drama.
After hearing about all that, the audience and Bai Zhu erupted into anger.
"What the h.e.l.l is that? That type of bullying and the blatant use of authority just to bully you. It was good that the director was fired."
Bai Zhu criticised in the most aggressive manner possible on a public network broadcast as he scolded the people who have worked together in bullying Xiao Rin.
The audiences reactions were also heated. It looks like they sympathised with Xiao Rin.
"It looks like the strategy will work when it will broadcast."
Ren was able to imagine the public reaction when the episode will be broadcasted.
Xiao Rin will get a good image after it and make her mark as a young actress while Ren would be applauded for helping her.
Moreover, it will put a end on that Director and niece pair. It would be a happy end for them.
After that, the show continued like usual. Bai Zhu asked some more questions from them and he strongly emphasised on Ren and Xiao Rin.
After the usual questions, he started playing some quizzes and games with them.
"You three are shooting for a long time, right. I had heard that the schedule for «The stars above» was even extended several times. I am sure you three will be close to each other."
It was a usual round he would play with the celebrities that will appear on his show.
"We have prepare some questions for you three, I want to see how close you three really are."
That"s how the round started. Quizzes were a usual thing for talk shows and Ren was not much surprised by them.
Although he was not surprised by it, he was indeed shocked by another thing.
"Do any of you know each others birthday?"
"I know, Senior Ren"s birthday, 26 November."
"Do any one know each others favourite movies? "
"Senior Ren"s favourite movie is, «True affairs»."
The thing which surprised Ren and even Bai Zhu was how quick Xiao Rin was to answer the question.
She was like the walking talking encyclopedia of Ren. She answered every question quickly that even Bai Zhu didn"t knew what to do.
The audiences were showing various reactions seeing this. Some were laughing while some were just smiling.
Even Chen Mei was quietly giggling to the side.
"Are you two real life siblings too? I though you seem close in the drama but it"s like you live in the same house in real life."
Bai Zhu said while laughing and Chen Mei added.
"Yes, I wonder about that too."
Ren just smiled shyly when he heard that as he glanced at Xiao Rin who was showing a shy expression on the side.
Anyway, after that, they played a few more games and the after 4 hours, the shoot was finally completed.

"Haha, I knew inviting them to the show will do a wonder."
At the side, Producer Gao who was the producer of Laughter nights was laughing with the writer standing on his side.
"Yeah, I thought we will get some good footage from Xin Ren but his chemistry with Xiao Rin was really good."
"Yeah, Chen Mei reactios were really good too but the show stealer was really Xiao Rin."
"Yes, the audience and Bai Zhu both liked her quite a lot."
"I think that the girl will become a big star quickly. We should strengthen our relations.h.i.+p with Top star entertainment. They are doing really good currently."
"Yes, I have heard that they were planning on launching another girl group soon too."
The writer said with a bright smile and Producer Gao laughed again as he replied.
"Then, let"s make them come on our show too. Maybe it would be good if Xiao Rin can accompany them too."
"Yeah, I think the ratings will be our highest this time."
"Yeah, they surely will be the highest."
Produce Gao said as he started walking towards the door.
He wanted to quickly go and have some drinks currently. He was very curious and expectant of the ratings of the show when the show will be brodcasted.
