“Indeed, Chi from our school is different from other people.”
The next day, when Chi Gui took a modified taxi to school, he received a WeChat message from “Liu Haiyou”:
[Chi Gui, I’m going to Nancheng in the next couple of days for a variety show, and I hope we can meet!!]
“Liu Hai” was a patient she once took care of in Capital City. She didn’t pay much attention to the specifics, only knowing he seemed to be a rather famous musician.
While hospitalized, Liu Hai enjoyed singing for other people in the ward.
Chi Gui really liked his singing, so when Liu Hai asked to add her on WeChat after he was discharged, she didn’t refuse.
...
Liu Hai was very busy, flying all over the place every day, either attending variety shows, recording programs, or singing. He also invited Chi Gui many times, but she politely declined each time.
Chi Gui wasn’t keen on things that required an artistic sense to appreciate.
Chi Gui: [I have time.]
Liu Hai: [Hahaha, you’re still as cold as ever! I just love how you don’t give me the time of day!]
Chi Gui: …
Liu Hai had clearly become used to talking to himself when chatting with Chi Gui and quickly sent another message: [But we haven’t seen each other at all in the second half of the year. Don’t you miss me at all?]
Chi Gui was very sincere: [I didn’t meet with you in the first half of the year either.]
Liu Hai: […]
Is that the point?
Just as she arrived at the school gate, Chi Gui sent a message: [Got to school, let’s chat when I have time] and then closed WeChat.
As soon as Chi Gui entered the classroom, she heard her classmates excitedly discussing the fact that Liu Hai was coming to Nancheng.
She paused for a second but didn’t pay much attention and went to sit down at her seat.
Su Niannian was already there, sitting at her desk, scribbling something on paper with a pen.
When she saw Chi Gui, she lifted her face, beaming with excitement: “Sister Chi! Liu Hai is coming to Nancheng! Did you know?”
Chi Gui: “Ah, he just told me.”
“Haha, Sister Chi, are you also a Liu Hai fan?” Su Niannian covered her mouth and laughed, “I never expected you to have such a wild side!”
Chi Gui: ?
Seeing her confusion, Su Niannian pulled up Weibo and clicked a few times: “Look, everyone’s saying so.”
Chi Gui looked and saw that it was Liu Hai’s Weibo.
Liu Hai was really popular, with 60 million followers on Weibo, and a lot of them were active. Each of his posts had over seven hundred thousand comments and likes or shares.
The latest post was his announcement that he was coming to Nancheng to record a show.@@novelbin@@
Just two hours after it was posted, it already had over two hundred thousand comments.
Chi Gui didn’t use Weibo much and didn’t have a concept of these numbers, but she couldn’t help her face falling as she read the comments.
The top hundred comments were almost all—
[My husband told me last night in bed! I have to be away from him for a few days, and I really can’t bear it!]
[Don’t be too shameless, the one above! He clearly kissed me goodbye this morning! He also said he’d make it up to me when he gets back!]
[Heh, if Liu Hai hadn’t made me breakfast in person this morning and told me himself that he’s going to Nancheng, I might have believed your nonsense!]
Chi Gui: …
It was the first time she felt the urge to hide her face.
Thinking that Chi Gui was just being shy, Su Niannian considerately changed the subject: “By the way, Sister Chi, Liu Hai is coming to Nancheng this time for the variety show ‘Shining Star’ auditions. I heard that the top three can get personal training from Liu Hai himself for a week!”
As she said this, she took the paper she had been doodling on from the desk and excitedly showed it to Chi Gui.
Chi Gui couldn’t really understand, but she could make out that it was probably a partially completed music score.
Su Niannian clenched her fist, speaking firmly: “Although I don’t expect to advance much in music, just for the chance to let Liu Hai hear a song I composed myself and to get his personal guidance, I’d go all out even if it means risking everything to secure a spot!”
Just then, a girl with heavy makeup and dressed in a punk outfit walked in.
Seeing her, the other students immediately surrounded her: “Xue Yao, since Liu Hai himself is coming to select in Nancheng, you’re definitely participating, right?”
What do you think?
