I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 32 Do you like the smell of me?

As Xu Kong accepted Su Zhi's invitation, he began to prepare to go to Xingcheng to prepare for the live broadcast of the next "Singer" singing competition.

The crew of "Want to See You" will probably be forced to take a break for three to four days.

Currently, the shooting progress of the whole drama has exceeded the halfway point, which is much faster than originally planned. Taking a few days off will not have much impact.

However, Xu Kong will not stay in Star City for too long.

After all, the entire crew, plus some temporary staff, has more than a hundred people in total. Just one day of rest would cost a considerable amount of money.

The budget for "Want to See You" is limited, but Xu Kong still hopes to spend the money wisely.

"Have you seen the hot searches?"

"Netizens don't seem to be optimistic about you being Su Zhi's backing singer."

Guo Zihao spoke up.

Xu Kong was not surprised by this. As a popular idol, it was big news in itself for him to participate in "Singer", the most professional competitive music variety show in China.

The show "Singer" has been on the air for more than a month, and almost every episode has been very popular.

Every time a program is broadcast live, the hot search list on Weibo is almost completely flooded with it.

Even if only some information about the replacement singer is exposed, it can attract countless netizens to watch.

This time was no exception. As the list of guest singers for each singer on the show was revealed, it caused an uproar.

"Fuck, Avril's guest singer is Yusef? How can the others have fun?"

"It's obvious that the intensity of the show has been getting higher and higher, and there is no weak singer among the singers invited."

"Well, it's not that. Didn't Su Zhi invite Xu Kong to help sing?"

"I was just about to complain, Su Zhi is completely rotten this time? Even if there is no one else in the domestic music scene, it won't be so embarrassing to let an idol like Xu Kong go up there, right?"

"Alas, I just watched Xu Kong's performance on Produce Trainee last year. It's hard to describe. I feel like Su Zhi will be at the bottom of the list if nothing unexpected happens."

Among the revelations this time, the most discussed person was not the two foreign European and American singers, nor the domestic singing king like Guan Yan, but Xu Kong, the top star in the domestic entertainment industry.

In such a relatively professional competitive music variety show, Xu Kong's name seems too abrupt.

Looking back on the one year since Xu Kong debuted, in fact, apart from Fengqing Entertainment's various buying of hot searches and creating topics most of the time, he really has no outstanding works or performances.

The only thing worth discussing is that Xu Kong wrote two hit singles, "Best Friend" and "So Many People in This World".

Some of Xu Kong’s past dark history was dug up again.

As a top star, it is natural that he is very popular, but at the same time, it is also an inevitable fact that he has many haters.

Among the many top stars in the country today, anyone who does not have a large number of black fans cannot be called a qualified top idol.

However, Xu Kong also watched some of the original owner's previous performances, and it was still a bit embarrassing. It was really too bad.

It can’t be said that he is tone-deaf. In fact, the tone of Xu Kong’s body is quite good.

He has absolutely no skills or singing abilities, just a plain old hoarse voice. Even though he had taken special music courses at Fengqing Entertainment, neither his stage presence nor his live performance were up to par.

If it weren't for the fact that he was so handsome, even if Feng Qing Entertainment spent so much effort, it would still not be able to make Xu Kong famous.

However, after the live broadcast of this episode of "Singer", Xu Kong felt that everyone's stereotype of him might change.

Guo Zihao had to help manage the crew of "Want to See You", so he did not go to Xingcheng with Xu Kong this time.

Xu Kong got off the plane with his assistant and two bodyguards.

Of course, there is the inevitable fan reception at the airport.

For top stars like Xu Kong, revealing their itinerary in advance has become a habit.

Every time a singer arrives in a city, the number of fans who come to pick him up at the airport has often become the key to assessing whether he is still popular.

After spending some time signing autographs and taking photos with fans, Xu Kong finally left the airport.

At this time, Su Zhi's agent's car was already waiting at the door. After getting in the car, Xu Kong saw Su Zhi sitting in the back.

The other person was wearing a half-length denim jacket today, with a black miniskirt underneath.

It was still that ascetic face with no major expression, and very delicately trimmed short hair.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Kong did not sit in the front seat, but walked directly to the back row and sat down next to Su Zhi.

Su Zhi didn't object too much.

As the business car started to move, Su Zhi asked:
"Should we go to the hotel first, or go straight to the studio?"

Xu Kong was stunned for a moment.

Then he remembered that the crew was indeed very busy during this period and he forgot to send the song to the other party in advance.

"Let's go to the recording studio first. I'll let you listen to the new song we're singing together this time."

Su Zhi nodded silently, then said something to the driver.

Sitting side by side, although there was some distance between them, Xu Kong could still smell the fragrance of the other person very clearly.

The perfumes that Yu Yaqing uses are all of a heavier type, with a strong scent but not pungent. The price is probably not cheap.

As for Song Youyou, it seems that she doesn't like to spray perfume, so every time they are in close contact with each other, the smell is of shampoo and shower gel.

As for Su Zhi, although Xu Kong couldn't tell what brand of perfume she was using, the scent was much lighter than Yu Yaqing's, and it had the fragrance of osmanthus flowers.

Xu Kong didn't notice it. He subconsciously compared the smell of several girls and sniffed several times in a row.

Such behavior was keenly noticed by Su Zhi who was sitting next to him.

"Do you like the smell of me?"

“Does it smell good?”

Su Zhi's sudden words made Xu Kong stunned.

He didn't expect that his actions were discovered by the other party.

And Su Zhi said it directly.

Fortunately, there were only two of them in the car besides the driver.

Otherwise, it would be even more embarrassing.

After a slight cough, Xu Kong pretended nothing had happened and casually picked up the bottle of water in the car and started drinking.

"What brand of perfume is that? I think I've smelled it before."

“It feels familiar.”

After asking this question, Su Zhi did not answer him directly. Instead, she stared at Xu Kong very attentively and asked again with a curious expression:
"Do you often sniff other girls?"

After hearing this, Xu Kong almost spit out water.

Finally it stabilized.

"I don't have the habit of wearing perfume, so you might have smelled it wrong."

Su Zhi, on the contrary, acted as if nothing had happened and continued to answer Xu Kong's question.

"Maybe I caught a cold a while ago and there's something wrong with my nose."

Xu Kong just wanted to end the topic quickly, so he made up an excuse.

Fortunately, Su Zhi did not speak again.

But after a while, Xu Kong in the car suddenly shook.

"Wait. No perfume? Is it body odor?"
