Yuxiang-Flavored Thousand Layer Eggplant

It was New Year's holidays.

For three full days, Gu Sheng was conscripted by her family. During the day, she needed to look after their family's little grocery store, and at night after closing, she still needed to do inventory. But even so, Geng Xiaoxing still did not let her off the hook and required that she be present promptly every night at 10:30 until 1:00 in the morning when it ended.

The first two days, because both Jue Mei and Qiang Qing Ci had personal commitments, neither of them was present.

It was the last day of the holidays and also the first day of rehearsal.

To enhance the promotion of the event as well as feed all of Wanmei's fans' appetites, Jue Mei Sha Yi announced that the first rehearsal would be conducted on Wanmei's official channel and the event would be made public.

Naturally, the whole setting was not much different from a tea party.

By the time Gu Sheng arrived home, the screen was already deluged with countless comments. There were endless numbers of people leaving all sorts of shrieking or starry-eyed emoticons and symbols. Jue Mei Sha Yi and Feng Ya Song had just released a drama, and now they were on YY engaging in amusing banter.

Her eyes swept across quickly. Qiang Qing Ci was not present. This leading artist's whereabouts were truly impossible to determine.

Because all three of Wanmei's top stars were making an appearance at the event, in the end, it was decided that they would all have a part in voicing the lines in the storyline song. And because of the fame of Wanmei and its leading artist, Qiang Qing Ci, the lyricist actually submitted a draft for the song in only two days.

She looked over the lines for each of those three as well as a few of the new artistes in Wanmei and was very pleased to discover that the lyricist, like herself, loved Qiang Qing Ci's voice the most. The most beautiful, artistic, and alluring lines were devoted to him.

"These lines are so 'shou[1].'" Feng Ya Song sighed softly. "Why is it, every time I cross paths with you, dear group leader, I have to be shou? And it has to be that warm and gentle but actually secretly resentful type of shou."

Gu Sheng skimmed through Feng Ya Song's lines and could not help letting out giggle.

" 'The horn's call trembles, the night is deep. For fear someone should inquire, tears are swallowed and joy is put on...' " Feng Ya Song recited slowly. He suddenly changed his lines and gently added at the end, "Jue Mei, may I ask you a question?"

"Huh?" Jue Mei Sha Yi said. "Sure, ask."

Feng Ya Song deliberately paused for several seconds.

And in those few seconds, there were already several hundred comments: "Yes, he did love you!" "Truly did love you!" "You don't even need to ask. You guys are the official couple!" "Be together!" "Absolutely, be together! No explanation needed!"...... The screen continued its nonstop scrolling because of all the comments. Gu Sheng was nearly dying from laughter as she read all these. These two men, one had an unruly and unfettered image while the other often put on the appearance of being wronged and misunderstood. They were indeed made for each other as Wanmei's number one "official couple."

It was a common occurrence for these CVs to be paired back and forth with one another.

But unfortunately, as the leading artiste, Qiang Qing Ci did not have any official pairing or rumours. This was utterly due to the simple self-introduction he gave when he first joined Wanmei: "I'm Qiang Qing Ci. Um, I'm straight."
