Chapter 505: Here Comes Mr. Fu the Movie Star

The words “Big Brother” saw Shen Xi clutching her fingers while she was on her knees tying up her shoelaces. After a pause, she laced up and scooped her backpack from the sofa before putting on her sunglasses and mask. Once she was all covered up, she bade farewell to Fu Qingye who was on the phone and took off without waiting for his acknowledgment.

Shen Xi opened the door to a crowd outside. Those passionate, worshiping, and prying eyes nearly scared her to the point of retreat.

F*ck!

She was wrong!

Why was there a huge turnout? What did he do when he brought her here?

Was he not aware that he was a huge superstar and any little thing he did could stir scandals?

The crowd was naturally waiting for Fu Qingye. With Shen Xi appearing at the door, someone even got on their tiptoes to sneak a peek inside. However, none of them had the guts to cross the line since Mr. Fu was not one to mess with given the status and public esteem he held.

Curious about who Shen Xi was, they were scratching their heads trying to figure out her relationship with Mr. Fu. Still, it was not their place to pop the question. Hence, they watched as she took the elevator and left.

By the time Fu Qingye hung up the phone and looked over, the girl was gone. He walked up to the door and opened it.

The chief director, Su Botao, was panting after coming in a hurry. “Hello, hello, Mr. Fu. I am Su Botao.”

Fu Qingye nodded at him. His good looks appeared rather solemn. “Mr. Su, I have an emergency at home and have to rush home tonight, so I can’t join tomorrow’s shooting. I’ll head to the studio to check on the trainees now.”

“Mr. Fu, you should head home now if it’s urgent. It’s not a problem!” Su Botao was being honest.

He did not even try to invite Fu Qingye, and it was not that he did not want to, rather he dared not imagine or have any insatiable thought.

Mr. Fu the great Movie Star was a man on top of the entertainment pyramid and for him to come to a talent show – not that Su Botao was looking down on his own show – it was just beneath Mr. Fu as he was of high status.

To Su Botao’s surprise, Mr. Fu initiated contact and said he loved Mr. Xixi’s work but could never get in touch with the person. Thus, Mr. Fu asked if he could be on the show.

Oh gawd! Su Botao was dumbstruck. A pie in the sky just fell on his lap. He would be over the moon if Mr. Fu simply made a personal video for the show, let alone joined the shoot.

“I should meet the trainees and give them some encouragement.” Fu Qingye smiled warmly.

“Of course, sure.” Su Botao was hot with emotions. No way was he going to say no to that.

Appearing as a mystery guest, Mr. Fu did not sign a contract with them, nor did he ask for a fee since his intention was to visit Mr. Xixi. It was an honor for the production team to welcome his special appearance to the show.

“I wonder if Mr. Xixi is here now?” Fu Qingye asked.

He was here to see the girl in the first place. However, she fainted the moment they met and slipped away in a blink of an eye. He probably would not be able to see her again.

Su Botao shook his head. “Mr. Xixi just contacted me and said he’d be late for an hour.”

“Okay.” Fu Qingye gazed at him. “After you, Mr. Su.”
