Marry a female star at a bargain price

Chapter 140 139. Everyone is beautiful standing under the cherry tree
I got on the high-speed train at five o'clock and arrived in Star City at seven o'clock.

Lin Xiao took a taxi and went straight to the Mango TV Radio and Television Center. Chen Jiajia was already waiting at the door.

"Brother-in-law is here~"

Jia Jia called in a friendly voice. Her eyes were originally small, and they became even smaller when she narrowed them.

Lin Xiao nodded, always feeling that the girl looked at him strangely.

He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Chen Jiajia shook her head exaggeratedly: "It's okay, nothing happened. I just saw that you care so much about my sister and came all the way to watch her performance. I'm excited, excited for the two of you, and I'm so moved that I want to cry!"

Lin Xiao: “…”

Something is wrong, something is wrong with this girl!

Chen Jiajia regained her playful expression and handed him a staff badge, which was the only way to enter the TV station.

Lin Xiao put it on obediently.

He followed Jia Jia very obediently, and the assistant introduced each area to him enthusiastically, as if he was at home.

Lin Xiao nodded frequently, trying very hard to play the role of a newcomer outside the circle.

Soon we arrived at the seventh floor, the backstage of the "Singer" studio.

Han Xixi's dressing room.

"that……"

Jia Jia suddenly stopped and warned him seriously, "Brother-in-law, there are cameras recording the whole process, so... you should restrain yourself and don't kiss my sister when you see her!"

Lin Xiao’s eyes suddenly widened.

"???"

"Don't be so nervous, it's okay, the camera can't capture you!"

Chen Jiajia thought he was afraid of being exposed, so she tried to comfort him.

Lin Xiao thought, is this about the camera?

After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Xixi...what did I tell you?"

Chen Jiajia said shamelessly: "I told you, you kissed her twice and stuck out your tongue!"

Lin Xiao: “!!!”

Chen Jiajia waved her hand indifferently, looking like an experienced person.

"Hey, brother-in-law, you don't have to be shy. There's nothing to be nervous about when kissing!"

“This is not a matter of whether or not you are nervous…”

Lin Xiao was simply helpless and couldn't help but complain about his silly wife. Why did she tell everything to others... Especially the tongue-sticking thing, was that something that could be told?
Chen Jiajia was trying to embarrass him on purpose.

I didn't expect that he was so weak to teasing. I immediately lost interest and thought that this couple were more hypocritical than the other. I didn't want to tease him anymore!

Took him into the dressing room.

Han Xixi had already put on her makeup and changed into a black stage costume, which was completely different from her usual pure and white look.

The makeup artist was still making the final adjustments to the makeup. When she saw a hint of curiosity in Lin Xiao's eyes, she didn't pay much attention to him.

Agent Zhou Hui was also there.

Seeing him, Zhou Hui's face flashed with embarrassment, and then she said nothing.

Lin Xiao always felt something was strange.

Hiding in the blind spot of the camera, he whispered to Chen Jiajia: "What happened to Sister Hui?"

Chen Jiajia looked excited.

He suppressed his desire to support the couple and was in the mood to gossip again. He lowered his voice and said, "They had a fight!"

Lin Xiao frowned: "With Xixi?"

Chen Jiajia said: "Of course... To be precise, it wasn't a quarrel, but I was taught a lesson by Sister Xixi!"

Lin Xiao frowned even deeper, totally unable to connect Han Xixi with the scene of "teaching someone a lesson".

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Chen Jiajia became even more excited.

She called him outside the dressing room and said she wanted to show him something fun.

Lin Xiao went out with her.

Chen Jiajia took out a video from her mobile phone and handed it to him.

The scene in the video was taken in a hotel room. Han Xixi and Zhou Hui were in the picture. Lin Xiao recognized at a glance that Xixi was wearing the clothes she had worn on his birthday.

Therefore, the content in the picture should be what happened in the hotel after arriving in Star City that afternoon.

In the video, Zhou Hui's tone has become sharp.

"Being on 'Singer' is such a great opportunity, but at such an important moment, you insisted on celebrating the birthday of a strange person... Is this what a mature artist should do?!"

The tone is aggressive and always annoying.

Lin Xiao frowned as he watched.

Then the next second, he felt relieved.

Han Xixi, who was packing her suitcase, suddenly stood up and faced Zhou Hui, saying calmly, "Sister Hui, Lin Xiao is my boyfriend, not some weird person!"

Zhou Hui didn't expect her to be so straightforward and was choked.

"Boyfriend? Just because he's Ma Yao?"

"It has nothing to do with Ma Yao. I like him. His name is Lin Xiao!" Han Xixi's tone was still calm, but the calmer his attitude was, the more annoyed Zhou Hui became.

In fact, as a top star in his previous life, Lin Xiao can understand Zhou Hui's psychological state.

Han Xixi is a newcomer in the industry, and was signed by Zhou Hui himself, so he has unlimited development potential.

In Zhou Hui's heart, she believed that she had helped Han Xixi and paved the way for her, so Xixi should be completely under her control and keep taking on business and making a lot of money to repay her.

But now, she slowly discovered that the seemingly introverted Han Xixi was not a soft persimmon that could be easily manipulated.

After Lin Xiao got involved, she became even harder to control, and now she is openly dating this fake marriage partner.

Can Zhou Hui tolerate this?

Not to mention that he is Ma Yao, even if he is Niu Shun, Zhu Yu, or Yang Tang, it won’t work!
That's why this pent-up anger exploded.

Of course, Lin Xiao did not expect that Han Xixi would choose to directly burst the abscess, and he watched this video with great interest.

While Zhou Hui was confused, Han Xixi pushed Zhou Hui aside and said, "Sister Hui, I hope you understand one thing clearly. The relationship between the agent and the artist is a working partnership. There is no such thing as who leads whom and who has to listen to whom!
"I remember that you brought me into the industry. But I also know clearly that if I didn't have the popularity and title of the champion of "The Voice of China", you would not sign me at all, so there is no gratitude between us, only the most ordinary cooperation.

"You just need to take care of my work. As for my private life, please don't interfere, because even if you interfere, it will be ineffective. Lin Xiao is my boyfriend and my legal husband. He is very important to me, and I can't allow anyone to slander him! Not to mention you, even my parents can't do that!
"If you can recognize this, we can continue to cooperate in the future. If you can't put yourself in the right position and always want to control me and order me around, then I think our management relationship can end here. You can find another obedient artist, and I can find a manager who can clearly distinguish between public and private affairs. What do you think?"

These simple words left Zhou Hui dumbfounded, and the expression on her face was as if she had been struck by lightning.

The video ends here, and there is no record of how the dispute ended.

It should be that Chen Jiajia saw that the atmosphere was tense and was afraid of being discovered taking photos, so she quickly turned off her phone.

Lin Xiao looked horrified.

I can't believe that the girl who is so calm and composed in the video is my newly confirmed wife.

It’s really wonderful!
He couldn't help but smile like an auntie, feeling a sense of security like a chick being protected by an old hen.

Seeing this, Chen Jiajia couldn't help but joked: "I'm happy again, brother!"

Lin Xiao smiled in a worthless manner and looked at her with a serious expression.

"Jia Jia, from now on, at my wedding with your sister Xixi, you will sit at the main table!"

……

Return to the dressing room.

The makeup artist has made the final adjustments and is out.

Chen Jiajia was also very considerate and did not go in, and even closed the door for them.

Lin Xiao stood in the blind spot of the camera, looking at Han Xixi, who had exquisite makeup and clothes, and felt a little unfamiliar.

"What's the matter? Don't you recognize me?" Xixi laughed.

"Well... I really don't know you. Who are you?" Lin Xiao asked deliberately.

Han Xixi smiled shyly and almost blurted out: She's your wife!

But I braked in time and felt so embarrassed!

Lin Xiao looked at her gentle expression, and then compared it with her calmness in the video just now. He couldn't believe that this was the same person.

Han Xixi put on some beautiful eye makeup today.

The song she was about to sing was an old one called "Stars". As if to match the song, her eyes were dotted with bright diamonds and her black gauze skirt was also covered with a shining starry sky.

It's so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment and wanted to rush over and kiss her.

At this moment, I remembered Chen Jiajia's reminder when I entered the door: Be restrained and don't kiss your wife when you see her!

At that time, I thought she was joking on purpose, but now I think... Chen Jiajia is very foresighted!

He tried very hard to control himself.

And it is obvious that the big star is also trying very hard to restrain himself and is almost wiping off all his lipstick.

The two chatted incessantly.

Soon, it was almost half past eight, and the third live broadcast of "Singer" was about to officially begin.

In order not to affect Xixi, Lin Xiao left early.

I booked a room in the hotel opposite the TV station, lay on the bed, and watched the live broadcast comfortably.

We watched it until after ten o'clock before Han Xixi came on stage and sang this classic old song "Stars".

Han Xixi is extremely popular now.

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, there were noticeably more comments on the screen, with all kinds of shouts of support.

"finally!!!"

“Wife!!!!”

"I waited all night for Xixi!"

"Oh my god, my wife is so beautiful!!"

"No, those who call themselves wives, do their husbands agree?"

Lin Xiao watched with great pleasure.

The first time I clicked on the barrage input box, I replied: "I disagree!"

In the picture, Han Xixi starts to sing. This is a very emotional love song, with not much fluctuation in the range of the voice. Han Xixi has sung it before on the stage of "The Voice of China".

Basically every time she sings this kind of song, she is at the king level and has never lost in PK.

She also became the only person in the history of "The Voice of China" to win the championship without singing high notes.

Now on the stage of "Singer".

Her technique is more sophisticated, her emotions are fuller, and her performance of the whole song is seamless.

As a viewer, Lin Xiao knew clearly that the person in the picture was his wife. They were kissing two days ago and chatting two hours ago, but as soon as she opened her mouth, he couldn't help but be drawn into it.

At the end of the song, Lin Xiao's eyes were a little moist.

This is the infectious power of a good singer!

If he had a voting machine in his hand, he would have been unable to resist voting crazily!
Han Xixi was the last singer to go on stage as the challenger, so the result of this show would be announced soon after she finished singing.

The scene cuts back to the lounge where the singers are gathered together.

Han Xixi's appearance won applause from a group of seniors. Xixi was also very humble. She bent down and bowed, calling them teachers one by one.

Her predecessors were full of praise for her.

In front of the live camera, everyone was very friendly and harmonious.

After a decent round of flattery.

Liu Jia, the big sister of the music industry, suddenly spoke up: "Xixi, when are you going to introduce Ma Yao to everyone? He's such a talented musician, why don't you just tie him up and write songs for yourself?"

In the hotel, Lin Xiao was stunned when he heard this.

I'm a little worried about Xixi.

If this problem had occurred before his own self-destruction, he believed Xixi would have been able to handle it properly.

But now, she clearly knows her identity, and in front of tens of millions of netizens, this question is really difficult to answer.

But soon, Lin Xiao realized that his worries were unnecessary.

In the picture, Han Xixi paused for a moment, then smiled calmly and said, "Jia Jie, restricting personal freedom is against the law. I am a good citizen who abides by the law!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other singers at the scene burst into laughter.

Although Han Xixi did not answer directly, his meaning was very clear: Ma Yao insisted on writing a song for me, what can I do? If you have the ability, let him write it for you. I am not tying him up!
Liu Jia hit a snag and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face, but he quickly turned it off.

Only when the topic was diverted to other singers did Han Xixi relax a little.

After chatting for a few more minutes, it was finally time to announce the results.

The director drank water several times and almost drove the audience crazy before the ranking of this episode was finally revealed.

Han Xixi won fifth place!
This result caused strong dissatisfaction among netizens, and they posted various comments in protest.

However, Lin Xiao thought it was quite reasonable.

It is true that he admits that his wife's singing is perfect, but unfortunately, her opponents this time are not amateur contestants on the "Voice of China" stage, but a group of the most powerful singers in the entire music industry.

This kind of emotional love song does not have an advantage.

She finally got fifth place out of eight people, which was a very good result.

There are two kick-off matches in total.

Only if you can rank in the top four in the overall score can you be considered a successful challenger.

She finished fifth in this game, so overall she still has a chance, but she needs to at least get into the top three in the next game to be safe.

But the difficulty level is even greater.

With her strength, it is almost impossible!
Lin Xiao didn't care whether his wife could successfully challenge the opponent, he only cared about her current condition.

I took a photo of myself with my hands on the headboard and sent it to him.

Then he added: [Stay prepared for battle, ready to take a walk or chat at any time~]

Half an hour later, the reply came, which should mean that the recording was finished.

[Xixi Buxixi: Not today, I have to make up for some post-recordings later, and it may take until the early morning to finish, you should go to bed first~]

After sending it, as if she was afraid that he would be worried, she specially sent him a cute rabbit emoticon.

Lin Xiao felt relieved after reading it.

I really believed that Xixi would not be so fragile. After chatting with her for a few minutes, I went to sleep.

……

the next morning.

The first thing Lin Xiao did when he got up was to send a WeChat message to Han Xixi.

I thought she definitely hadn't gotten up, but I didn't expect her reply to come so quickly.

Lin Xiao called directly: "Are you up?"

The voice on the other end was lazy: "Just woke up..."

Lin Xiao smiled.

"What are your plans for today?"

"Well, I'm free... I'm waiting for my brother to arrange something!" Han Xixi said in a playful tone, and her coquettishness became more and more natural.

"Where are your agent and assistant?"

"They know you're here and have already booked a flight for the morning. They should be leaving for the airport by now!"

Han Xixi pretended to cry, "I was left behind like this, wuwu, so pitiful..."

Lin Xiao laughed out loud, he couldn’t believe that Han Xixi had such a cute side!
"Let's go in half an hour. Your husband will take you to a nice place!"

"..."

Han Xixi wanted to refute him, asking him not to call himself "husband" so shamelessly, but she stopped herself when the words came to her lips.

She thought: Forget it, let him take advantage of her if he wants to, since he's almost taken advantage of her anyway...

Thinking this way, the words that come to my lips become: "Okay~"

After half an hour.

The two met in the hotel parking lot.

Lin Xiao took a hot breakfast and drove directly out of Xingcheng and onto the highway.

Han Xixi didn't ask where they were going. She sat in the passenger seat and leisurely ate breakfast. While she was eating, she also acted as a little assistant, feeding peeled eggs, shredded fried dough sticks, and warm coffee directly into Lin Xiao's mouth.

The little girl was completely immersed in it and never tired of serving!
Lin Xiao was so satisfied with the meal that he almost dreamed of his life when he was a big star.

After driving for more than half an hour, he asked, "You didn't even ask me where I was going. Aren't you afraid that I might sell you out?"

Han Xixi raised her little face and said, "Now that so many people know me, it must be difficult to sell me..."

Lin Xiao was speechless for a moment and had no answer.

When Han Xixi saw him being humiliated, she immediately covered her mouth and burst into laughter. She was not affected at all by the fact that she got fifth place last night.

Lin Xiao was relieved.

The car sped all the way and soon arrived at another city.

"Jiangcheng?"

Han Xixi looked at the big words on the highway toll gate and was confused. "What are you doing in Jiangcheng?"

Lin Xiao smiled but said nothing, keeping the secret and continued driving.

Soon, the car arrived at the gate of Jiangcheng University.

Han Xixi looked at the name of the school and thought about the current season, and suddenly he understood everything.

The cherry blossoms at Jiangcheng University are very famous.

But it is early March now, and the cherry blossoms are not yet in bloom. Isn’t it a bit early to come now?

Lin Xiao didn't explain.

After finding a place to park the car, he took her inside. The two of them held hands, like an ordinary campus couple, and did not attract anyone's attention.

Turning left and right, you will soon arrive at a straight cherry blossom path.

Han Xixi was surprised to find that the cherry blossom trees all over the sky were turning pink. Although they had not yet bloomed, they were already dreamy and beautiful enough.

"How do you know that the cherry blossoms at Jiangda University have bloomed?" Xixi asked in surprise.

“Uh…I saw it on TikTok last night!”

Lin Xiao did not hide it, he indeed saw the recommendation by accident and decided to bring her here today.

Han Xixi did not despise it and was still very happy.

The two walked hand in hand under the cherry trees. When the breeze blew, drops of petals fell.

It is slightly different from the dreamy beauty circulating on the Internet.

But because the cherry blossom season has not yet arrived, it is still relatively quiet here and large groups of tourists have not arrived yet.

The two of them strolled slowly, enjoying a rare and pleasant time.

"Xixi, have I ever told you... that you are beautiful?" Lin Xiao suddenly stopped and looked at her.

This sentence came unexpectedly.

Han Xixi glanced at him and pursed her lips.

Although I didn't wait for the confession, this sentence should have the same meaning, right?

She laughed: "Silly brother, haven't you heard the saying that anyone standing under a cherry tree is beautiful?"

"Bullshit!"

Lin Xiao was shocked. "Anyone is beautiful standing under the cherry tree? Try standing as Huang Fengguai, Li Kui or Zhang Fei and see if he is beautiful!"

Han Xixi: “…”

Lin Xiao said seriously: "My saying that you are beautiful has nothing to do with cherry blossoms. With you here, I can't even see the cherry blossoms!"

Han Xixi was stunned.

It is simply incomprehensible how this 37-year-old mouth can switch back and forth between being romantic and unromantic?

She just couldn't laugh or cry.

The next second, Lin Xiao suddenly took a step closer to her and gently stamped her forehead.

A gust of spring breeze blew, and flowers fell from the sky like rain.

The two looked into each other's eyes, and the corners of their eyes were gentler than cherry blossoms.
