In the blue sky and white clouds above, the majestic ancient castle stood in the distant mountains surrounded by green trees. A vast garden spread out at the foot of the mountain, making the entire castle seem like it was floating in a sea of flowers, resembling a scene straight out of a fairy tale.
Feiran’s eyes widened, not because of the picturesque scenery but due to the unexpected revelation. The host continued his rapid and enthusiastic narration about the famous castle, emphasizing its every detail as a masterpiece of art. However, Feiran couldn’t pay attention because the castle in front of him was where he stayed every summer vacation!
In other words, this place was his family’s!
It was truly unexpected and surprising, but Feiran couldn’t find any joy in the situation. When he spotted the butler Charles, dressed in a standard butler outfit, not far away, Feiran felt his heart almost jump out of his throat. This was truly unexpected!
Charles, the old butler, glanced over at him, and their eyes met. Feiran’s back was covered in goosebumps. However, Charles just gave him a polite smile and then turned his gaze away, as if it were a casual encounter with a stranger.
Feiran: “…”
The host, Lu Wei, noticed Feiran standing there dumbfounded and teased, “It seems that this filming location has quite an impact on our little Feiran!”
Feiran forced a smile, “Yeah…”
So, what was going on here?
The host made a few more jokes, and the crew signaled that the second guest was ready.
The host, facing the camera, said with a smile, “Come on! Cameraman, pay attention to capturing close-ups of the guests’ faces! Don’t miss any details!”
Feiran, being constantly filmed by the cameraman beside him, couldn’t express much and could only maintain an unnatural smile on his face, dryly saying, “Haha” a couple of times.
The second guest arrived in a car with tinted windows. As the door opened and the guest saw the scenery, there was genuine surprise, but they quickly adjusted. After interacting with Lu Wei, the guest, Qiu Lang, approached Feiran and extended his hand. Feiran hesitated for a moment before shaking hands.
Qiu Lang, the current leading actor in idol dramas, greeted him, “Feiran, right? Nice to meet you.”
Feiran, though not having interacted with Qiu Lang before, knew about him. He responded politely, “Hello, Qiu Ge.”
Qiu Lang smiled, “Feiran, right? Pleasure.”
As the idol drama’s leading actor, Qiu Lang had a handsome appearance. His smile was breathtaking, but perhaps due to playing the domineering CEO too much, he exuded a charming and slightly arrogant vibe.
For some reason, Feiran felt Qiu Lang’s smile was strange. Before he could think further, when he tried to withdraw his hand, Qiu Lang subtly squeezed it.
Feiran: “…”
Qiu Lang’s movement was swift, and to an outsider, their handshake seemed ordinary. Then Qiu Lang casually let go.
Feiran was bewildered, “…”
The host, Lu Wei, saw Feiran standing there foolishly and joked, “It seems that our little Feiran is quite shocked by this filming location!”
Feiran managed to force a smile, “Yes…”
So, what exactly was happening?
The host teased a bit more, and the crew signaled that the third guest was ready. As the host smiled towards the camera, he said, “Come on! Cameraman, pay attention to capturing close-ups of the guests’ faces! Don’t miss any details!”
The third guest, Jiang Haoyun, is obviously different from the idol group like Qiu Lang and Chi Feiran. He is a strong person. It’s not that he is not handsome. There are really a few good-looking people who can stand out in the circle. , this person has been dancing since he was a child and is very interested in dancing.
Because he was good at dancing, he was spotted by a famous director and was trained to become a star. He also strived for success and learned kung fu without fear of hardship or fatigue. He just became famous and became the most popular dancer in China.
Jiang Haoyun also has a more outgoing personality. Chi Feiran and Qiu Lang were shaking hands just now. He held both of them in his arms with one hand, with great strength, and said in his mouth: “Brother, I will protect you!”
What happened to Qiu Lang? Chi Feiran didn’t know. Anyway, he didn’t hate Jiang Haoyun like this. Well, anyway, he felt better than Qiu Lang made him feel.
The fourth guest had some connection with Chi Feiran, brought by Li Yuan. Under his guidance, there was an award-winning actress and a potential award-winning actor under his management. This fourth guest, named Qi Ming, was recognized for his acting skills and just needed a suitable role to win the Best Actor title.
Qi Ming, following a refined and gentle route, shook hands with everyone. Jiang Haoyun, who had worked with him before, pulled him over for a hug, patting his back forcefully, “Long time no see, Xiao Ming!”
Qi Ming immediately showed a pretend-injured expression and emphasized not to call him “Xiao Ming,” indicating a good relationship between them.
The sequence of guest appearances was deliberate. With a total of six guests, Chi Feiran, despite his current popularity, had to go first due to his lower seniority. By the time the fourth guest appeared, he was already a potential award-winning actor, and there were still two more to come!
When the fifth guest’s car arrived, its quality was noticeably higher. The guests already present stared at the car, curious about who it was that elevated the treatment of the show so much.
As the car door opened, Chi Feiran distinctly heard Jiang Haoyun beside him inhale sharply. Even Chi Feiran himself was taken aback.
Because the person in the car was none other than Rong Jin!
Rong Jin walked out of the car like a king, showing no surprise at the castle in front of him. Whether he knew the shooting location in advance or not was unclear.
Lu Wei, the host, was more excited than when introducing the castle, “Special guest for this episode! Our great actor! Rong Jin! Isn’t it perfect with the castle?”
Chi Feiran didn’t know if Rong Jin matched the castle, but he felt mentally exhausted.
After exchanging a few words with the host, Rong Jin walked towards Chi Feiran. The other guests greeted him willingly. After all, why wait for Rong Jin to greet them first?
Once the seniors greeted Rong Jin, Chi Feiran was the last to speak with him.
Rong Jin’s expression remained indifferent. In reality, he wanted to ask Chi Feiran if seeing him was a pleasant surprise, but he restrained himself.
Chi Feiran: “Rong ge, why are you here too?”
Rong Jin smiled faintly, “Invited by the program, I find it interesting.”
Chi Feiran: “Oh…”
If they were elsewhere, Chi Feiran might have chatted with Rong Jin about how he never leaked any news when they talked. But right now, he felt truly exhausted.
However, now that Rong Jin had appeared, was there anyone more famous than him?
The host Lu Wei revealed a mysterious smile and said to the five male guests already present, “Please tidy up and welcome the imminent arrival of our queen!”
Chi Feiran: “…”
What the heck?!
The host said “queen,” and it turned out to be an actual queen. Thanks to the current recording, fans would probably praise the program for being creative, bringing in the retired queen actress Ning Xuan!
Who was Ning Xuan?
Ning Xuan was one of the least controversial female celebrities who had rumors with Rong Jin. Some even regretted that she didn’t marry Rong Jin after she retired!
Now, with the old rumored couple on the same stage, especially when Ning Xuan’s divorce news had just been exposed, the topic was beyond imagination!
Chi Feiran didn’t know about all the twists and turns, but Rong Jin beside him almost couldn’t maintain his calm expression.
If there were no cameras around, he might have already confronted the producer, asking what he meant and why he came to the show. Wasn’t the reason for his participation clear enough?
The producer, unaware of Rong Jin’s thoughts, was eager to create a big sensation. Rong Jin participating in their show was already a big news! Without stirring things up, how could they justify this rare opportunity?
Rong Jin was offended, though…
Ning Xuan, with her snow-white skin and red lips, wore a black long dress. Her slightly curled long hair lazily fell on her shoulders, making her fair complexion and bright lips even more striking. With her naturally beautiful and radiant face, she greeted everyone with a smile, saying hello to each one with minimal lip movement and a low, but audible voice, enough for Rong Jin to hear clearly, “I’m just borrowing your popularity, don’t lose face.”
Rong Jin didn’t want to pay attention to her.
Ning Xuan continued, “What’s wrong, hindering your pursuit of a partner?”
Rong Jin: “…”
Ning Xuan: “Don’t panic, I’m here to find a partner too.”
After saying that, Ning Xuan turned her gaze towards Chi Feiran and the others, giving them a brilliant smile.
Chi Feiran noticed that Qi Ming beside him seemed to tremble for a moment.
