Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 170 My Brother Juan’s Strength

Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, known as China's No. 1 commercial street, is famous for its collection of various goods and delicacies.

As night falls, the lights are on.

The various neon lights on the pedestrian street illuminate the faces of passers-by with different expressions. People of all kinds are bustling about. There are couples walking slowly together, foreign tourists leisurely tasting street snacks, and others enjoying the fun of shopping in the specialty stores of shopping malls.

Therefore, it is not uncommon to see people being picked up in such a crowded and huge business district.

At least Tian Xiwei encountered more than one incident.
Even as a witness or bystander.

First, a sexy hot girl with Taikoo Li's trendy temperament made a brilliant appearance, but she left in disappointment after failing to get the man to take off his mask after a lot of pestering.

Then came a tall and pretty girl who was COSing Toosaka Rin. She approached him, saying that the man's figure and temperament were very suitable for COSing characters in the FATE series, but unfortunately he left with an answer that did not satisfy her.

Finally, there was the wealthy older sister who was obviously dressed expensively and was holding a seven-figure Hermès Himalaya platinum bag. Her wealth was evident in her words.

I don't know what I said to the masked man, but I could clearly feel his emotional changes: from calm to surprised and then to shocked.
This last round of pick-up incident, which seemed to be going on for a long time, was finally ended by Tian Xiwei, who was getting more and more frightened and angry and couldn't bear to watch it any longer.

"I'm late, sorry~"

Having said that, there was no apology in Tian Xiwei's eyes, but rather cunning.

"It's okay. I just waited for thirty minutes at most, and you probably waited for me for a month, so I should be the one to say sorry." Shen Juan threw the stack of business cards he had just collected into the trash can on the side of the road in front of the girl, his eyes and smile equally gentle.

Seeing her boyfriend being hit on by so many different kinds of bitches, Tian Xiwei, who was originally feeling a little unhappy, was instantly coaxed into curling up the corners of her mouth.

So I no longer care about these things.

After all, it's a long-distance relationship, so of course you need to be broad-minded. If you get jealous when you see your partner interacting with the opposite sex, then this relationship will probably not last long.

"What are we going to do next? Male model brother."

Tian Xiwei naturally took Shen Juan's hand and leaned on him. Just as he had said, after not seeing each other for a month, she urgently needed to replenish her energy and spend some time with her boyfriend.

What the hell is a male model? Shen Juan raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Do you have any ideas?"

Tian Xiwei organized the language and spoke eloquently:

"I don't mind watching any of them. If I want to watch a movie, there aren't many good ones right now. I can only watch Black Panther, which was released a while ago. But the movie I want to watch the most is Ready Player One, but it's a pity that it won't be released in China until the end of the month."

"If you want to play video games, that's fine with me, of course, provided you're not afraid of being recognized. Or you can just go for a walk around the Bund, but I guess you, a Shanghainese, don't have any special filter for the Bund. If you find it boring, then you'd better go somewhere else."

"Did you plan ahead?"

"No."

"That means you are a playful person."

"Go away! Then tell me what suggestions you have?"

"Would you like some cookies?"

"?"

Half an hour later, Tian Xiwei fell silent as she watched Peng Yuchang, who was opening the door for them with an egg beater in his hand, even the smile on her face froze.

"Hello, hello! You must be Juan's friend Xiaotian! I'm Peng Yuchang, just call me Peng Peng!" Peng Yuchang stepped back enthusiastically and made way for the entrance.

"It's already started? Why don't you wait for us?" Shen Juan stepped in first, then took the hand of the girl who was still in a daze and gently pulled her in.

"Hey, you guys haven't come for a while, so I was bored and wanted to try my hand first!" Peng Yuchang smiled honestly.

Soft and melodious music was playing in the room with exquisite decoration and warm atmosphere. Various tools and materials for making cookies were placed on the table, but it was a bit messy at the moment, obviously it had been busy for a while before.

After Shen Juan changed into slippers and went in, the girl who followed him closely looked around and poked his waist quietly, complaining in a low voice: "Why is your friend here? I thought it was just the two of us."

The gloomy Oda was obviously dissatisfied with the sudden insertion of a light bulb into this rare moment for the two of them.

"What? Are you not happy about bringing you to meet my friend? Do you really want to have a secret relationship for the rest of your life?" Shen Juan said with a smile.

"Of course I don't want to."

Tian Xiwei finally reacted and felt a little happy in her heart, but she still looked unhappy.

"Besides, cooking occasionally after work can also relieve stress." Shen Juan looked at the girl next to him, raised his lips and said, "By the way, I can let you taste my cooking skills!"

"You can also make cookies?" Tian Xiwei asked suspiciously.

"I always can!"

"When did this happen?"

“I learned it on TikTok on the way here.”

This time while recording "Xiangwang", I didn't learn anything else, but I did learn Mr. Huang's unique skill of "cramming".

“You are so humorous.”

The three of them sat down at the cookie-making table. Xiaotian changed from the lively and cheerful person she was when she was with Shen Juan to the pretentious and reserved attitude she had in daily social interactions, trying to show the temperament and appearance of a good wife and mother in front of her boyfriend's friends and try not to embarrass him.

"The materials and tools are all here. Just follow the steps in the tutorial step by step." Peng Yuchang handed over a picture of DIY butter cookies and explained the steps.

"Well, start freezing your hands!"

No more nonsense, let's start taking action.

After Shen Juan and Tian Xiwei washed their hands, they began to follow the process steps, adding salt, softening butter, adding sugar, and stirring eggs.
I have to say that Shen Juan does have some talent in cooking. Although it was also his first time to DIY cookies, he quickly made progress and was far ahead of his companions.

"That's it?"

Shen Juan complained out loud.

The girl, who had dressed up carefully for today's date but was ridiculed for her clumsiness, was so embarrassed that she forcibly exchanged Shen Juan's bowl with hers without saying anything. On the other hand, Peng Yuchang's movements were obviously much smoother and more skilled, and he even had time to chat.

"Xiaotian, do you usually cook for yourself?"

Shen Juan didn't ask because he had eaten the home-cooked meals made by Shen Juan at his home in Beijing last time.

How do you evaluate it?
He could give it eight out of ten.

Anyway, it’s much better than the dishes made by Huang Lei.

It’s a pity that Huang Lei is the big brother of the program’s sponsor, so it’s obviously impossible to ask him to give up the kitchen.

After all, this is what they do. If they are not allowed to cook, what else can they do in this show?
So much so that every time they had to pretend to flatter him in front of the camera, trying to get themselves to eat less and save their stomachs for late-night takeout.

"Me?" Tian Xiwei was stunned, and then replied a little embarrassedly: "I occasionally cook when I'm at home, but my skills are not good enough."

"Real or fake?" Shen Juan couldn't help but interrupt and say, "Uncle and aunt know that you will help occasionally."

Before he could finish his words, the girl next to him stepped on his foot lightly and then rubbed the back of his foot repeatedly.

Although it didn't hurt at all, in order to make his girlfriend happy, Shen Juan was "forced" to shut his mouth and pretend to be embarrassed as if nothing had happened.

When Peng Yuchang saw this scene, he quickly turned his head to the other side to prevent the smile on his face from being discovered.

Although Shen Juan did not say it explicitly, he could probably guess the relationship between them: boyfriend and girlfriend.

After all, the atmosphere between them is so similar.

But if that's the case, then there's a problem.

The last time he lived in Shen Juan's house, he suddenly found a hair on the blanket on the sofa. Judging from the length, it was most likely a woman's hair. As far as he knew, this girl named Tian Xiwei was studying in Shanghai and rarely went to Beijing. So...
He didn't dare to think about it any further.

Just think of this as my brother Juan’s ability.

Peng Yuchang thought he had discovered the truth and tried to calm down. After adjusting his mood, he started talking again:
“It seems like you guys have a very good relationship!”

"It's normal to have a good relationship. After all, we have known each other for more than half a year." Tian Xiwei explained with a smile.

"Did you meet during the filming?" Peng Yuchang asked again.

"Yes, that movie 'So Cute We Are'."

"I watched a few episodes, they were pretty good."

"Who has better acting skills, the heroine or the hero?"

"Forehead"

Peng Yuchang secretly looked at Shen Juan for help.

But Shen Juan just sat there without saying a word.

Then Peng Peng understood, "The heroine."

The girl elbowed Shen Juan and hummed with pride.

"Fengshen La Fengshen La!" Shen Juan praised sarcastically: So when will Sister Tian be crowned the queen of the Magnolia Awards?

“Why isn’t it the Golden Eagle or the Flying Sky?”

"You are a student of Shanghai Theatre Academy, which means you are half a member of the Shanghai circle. Do you still want to grab the customized awards of other circles?"

"So, as a Shanghai native who studies at Beijing Film Academy, what circle of artists do you belong to?" Tian Xiwei asked curiously.

"I don't know either. Maybe. Global Village?"

"Godly gold!"

In this harmonious atmosphere of pleasant conversation, we continued to make the cookies in an orderly manner according to the steps specified in the fool's guide.

Nearing midnight, the three said goodbye and took the cookies they had made and went to different hotels.

One-handed dogs go left, and people with a partner go right.

At 3:15 on March 0, Shen Juan felt that there was a possibility that he would be photographed by paparazzi today, so he took the initiative to expose himself and posted a photo of the three of them and his DIY cookies on Weibo.

And the caption: [It tastes terrible. ]

Although all the fans don't want to see Shen Juan and Tian Xiwei have any contact after the TV series is over, after all, rumors that the two are in a relationship have been circulating in the circle.

Fans of rival teams often use this to attack them.

But considering that Shen Juan showed the photo so blatantly without any guilt or concealment, and that there were other people present and it was not a one-on-one date, it shows that their friendship is truly pure.

At least that's how they understood it.

As a fan, I can only believe this.

Tian Xiwei, who was in the same room with Shen Juan, deliberately delayed for a quarter of an hour before logging into her Weibo account to respond in the comment section below Shen Juan's Weibo post.

Tian Xiwei: [I think it’s actually OK. ]

Then he started sipping on the Want Want crushed ice again.

She heard that eating fruits high in vitamin C, such as pineapples, could make popsicle juice taste better.

Because Shen Juan has to join the crew for filming recently, he has been eating a very healthy and light diet and regularly supplements with vitamin C.

So, she wanted to verify this point tonight and see if the taste was different from usual.
