Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 155, Section 154: Xiaolin, Your Girlfriend Scolded Me (6K)

"Oh dear, I want to sing a duet with you again, is that not allowed, Xiaotian?" Wang Churan said with a smile.

Tian Xiwei put down the microphone: "No, how do we do a duet of 'I'll Love You Till I Die'?"

Wang Churan ignored what Xiaotian was saying and picked up another microphone to start singing.

This action left Oda speechless.

"Love until death"

“It’s not satisfying unless you give it your all”

"This is the only measure of how deep the feelings are."

"Only then is it enough to confess your feelings."

"Love until death"

"I won't feel better until I cry until I smile again."

This song was originally requested by Tian Xiwei, but when it was sung, the main performer became Wang Churan.

I wonder what happened to this pure goddess who used to have long black hair?
I can't believe I like singing this song.

Tian Xiwei originally wanted to join in, but seeing how energetically Wang Churan sang, she could only retreat step by step to become an observer.

Female classmate: "What happened to Wang Churan?"

Tian Xiwei: "How would I know? This is the first time I've met her. And didn't we just say we were coming to sing karaoke? Why did you bring so many people?"

"Isn't it more fun with more people? Besides, Wang Churan usually doesn't come out to sing with us, I don't know what's wrong with her this time?"

"I feel awkward being with people I don't know well."

Tian Xiwei said honestly.

"Oh, isn't it normal for people to go from being strangers to becoming familiar with each other? It's okay, you'll get to know each other slowly. Besides, I think Wang Churan seems to like you quite a bit."

Tian Xiwei held her breath, feeling speechless with emotion.

After finishing her song, Wang Churan sat in the corner of the sofa, thinking she could have some quiet time to eat a few bites of watermelon.

Later, he couldn't help but pull Tian Xiwei to his side.

Tian Xiwei: "Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Wang Churan: "Of course, it's about making friends."

"Why are you bothering me again? Aren't those people all people?" Tian Xiwei pointed to several alumni of the Shanghai Theatre Academy sitting in the distance.

"None of them are as interesting as you, and you have a relationship with Lin Shaobai. I like Lin Shaobai too."

"What kind of 'liking' do you have for Lin Shaobai?"

"What kind of liking is there?"

The two of them stared at each other, finally managing to calmly discuss something.

"Of course we split it."

"Okay. Let's change the subject. Did you enjoy filming this movie?"

Wang Churan peeled an orange and gave the other half to Tian Xiwei.

Tian Xiwei took it and ate it all in one bite.

Wang Churan thought to herself, "This person eats so rudely!"
"Of course I'm happy. How could I not be happy playing the female lead? Besides, the atmosphere on set was great, and there was no bullying."

"I'm so envious. I also want to act with Lin Shaobai. It's just a pity that Lin Shaobai is quite popular now, and there aren't many opportunities to act with him. I'm not saying I have to be the female lead; actually, being the second female lead would be fine too."

"..."

Tian Xiwei didn't speak, but turned her head and quietly looked at Wang Churan.

"You really like Lin Shaobai?"

"of course."

Wang Churan straightened her back and openly admitted her feelings for Lin Shaobai.

When did you start liking it?

"It was around 2017, when he started participating in that singing competition. One beautiful original song after another made me fall into his fandom. I've been a fan ever since. After that, I watched his dramas... My dream is to act with him."

"Then your dream is really small."

Tian Xi smiled slightly.

Wang Churan suddenly felt somewhat unconvinced.

"Then I want to hear about the grand dreams of our classmate Wang Cuihua!"

"My dream is, of course, to make a lot of money in the future. I want to have many representative works, I want everyone to know my name, and I want to win many awards related to acting, including Best Actress."

"Tsk tsk tsk." Wang Churan reached out and pinched Tian Xiwei's arm: "Wow, your arm doesn't have any excess fat, it's so tight?"

Why are you pinching my arm?

"No, I just... don't think I'm trying to discourage you, but your dream is really too difficult. An award like Best Actress isn't something just anyone can win, and you have to be talented enough to deserve it, plus you need luck."

"I know it's tough, but a person has to have dreams, right?"

Tian Xi blinked her bright eyes.

Wang Churan could tell that Xiaotian was full of hope for the future and was the kind of person who would go all out to achieve a goal once she set her mind on it.

She's the kind of person who's full of enthusiasm and has a lot of drive in everything she does.

“Hmm…” Tian Xiwei felt she had said too much after she finished speaking.

Why would you tell someone you just met your dreams?!

Why would I tell you so much?

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

"Never mind, I don't usually talk about these things."

Tian Xiwei grabbed the snacks on the table and started stuffing them into her mouth.

Wang Churan started missing Lin Shaobai again when they talked about him, and immediately sent him a message.

[Xiaolin, I miss you a little. Do you have time to meet up?]

During the day, I want you to have me in your heart; at night, I want you to have me in your body.

[Wow, a new pickup line I learned. How about it? Pretty charming, right?!]

It just so happens that Lin Shaobai is conducting business promotions in Shanghai.

That very evening, the two arranged to meet.

As soon as the door closed, Wang Churan threw herself into Lin Shaobai's arms.

"Kobayashi, do you know? We haven't seen each other for 999 years."

Lin Shaobai: ^_^
"?"

"Actually, our fate started in our past lives."

"Haha..." Lin Shaobai chuckled, then picked Wang Churan up in his arms. "I've been busy filming lately and haven't had a chance to see you. I've noticed that you seem to have gotten even cuter during this time."

Even though Wang Churan is an extremely talkative and infatuated girl, her heart still raced and her face flushed when she heard people say she was cute.

"Are you... are you... telling the truth, or are you lying...? Am I supposed to believe you?"

Wang Churan wrapped her arms around Lin Shaobai's neck and shyly lowered her face.

At this moment, he was no longer as generous as before.

"Really? I genuinely think you're adorable."

"Ah, mua, mua, mua!"

Upon hearing these words, Wang Churan felt her blood surging. She immediately cupped Lin Shaobai's face and kissed him ten times.

Her red lipstick marks covered her forehead, cheeks, nose, and lips.

The attack was too fierce, and Lin Shaobai was a little stunned.

He turned his head and saw himself in the mirror; the lipstick marks all over his face were strangely funny.

Wang Churan snuggled into Lin Shaobai's arms, her eyes crinkling into beautiful bridges as she laughed.

"I'm so happy, the person I like actually called me cute~"

"You are exaggerating."

"It's not an exaggeration at all. I don't know what others think, but for someone like me, being praised by you can make me happy for ten days, oh no, twenty days! Twenty years!"

"Ok?"

"Okay, 20 years is a bit of an exaggeration, but 20 days is definitely true!"

Lin Shaobai stared at Wang Churan, and after a while, he smiled gently and said, "I think what I said is absolutely right."

"Hmm?" Wang Churan tilted her head.

"You are so cute."

"...Oh dear, don't flatter me. You know how happy you are to be praised by your dream lover? It'll make you faint with joy."

After Wang Churan finished speaking, she pretended to faint and lay down in Lin Shaobai's arms.

Lin Shaobai chuckled, annoyed, and carried her to the bedside, gently setting her down.

Wang Churan was still pretending to be unconscious even at this point.
Lin Shaobai bent down and touched her with his hand before she shyly opened her eyes.

"You bad guy! Why did you touch that there?!"

"Well, I'll reluctantly allow it since it's Kobayashi."

……

Late night
Wang Churan leaned against Lin Shaobai's chest.

"Snoring...snoring..."

She peeked at Lin Shaobai with one eye, then deliberately made that funny sound.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh my God."

After hearing Lin Shaobai speak, Wang Churan quickly turned on the bedside lamp, got up, and stared at him.

"Excuse me, handsome sir, what's your name?"

Lin Shaobai's lips twitched, wondering what kind of abstract thing Wang Churan was doing again.

"What the hell?"

"Excuse me, what's your name, you're very handsome?"

"My name is Lin Shaobai."

Lin Shaobai thought he should just go along with her for now.

Otherwise, this farce will never end.

Wang Churan immediately smiled and said, "I was just wondering why there was a light shining into such a dark room! What was it that caught my eye? It's you, Lin Shaobai! You're so handsome, the most dazzling person ever!"

Even though he had heard this kind of talk many times, he still felt somewhat helpless. He rubbed his throbbing temples with his hand.

When he looked up, he saw Wang Churan enjoying it, blinking her eyes tirelessly.

Lin Shaobai calmly pointed to the bedside lamp that Wang Churan had just turned on: "What I'm saying is, is it possible that the bedside lamp blinded you?"

Wang Churan: "..."

Lin Shaobai: "..."

"Hey! Don't you have a sense of humor at all? People are complimenting your good looks, going to great lengths to compliment you, and you're not even reacting? You should humbly accept their compliments."

After Wang Churan finished speaking, she lifted Lin Shaobai's chin and said, "Xiaobai, don't you feel anything after I've praised you so much?"

Lin Shaobai: "I'm very happy."

Wang Churan: "Then you should praise me too, I want to hear you praise me."

Her eyes were soft, and the corners of her lips unconsciously turned up as she spoke.

"sleep."

"Ah~ Praise me! Is it really that hard to say a few words of praise?"

Wang Churan wiped away her tears as she spoke.

She didn't shed a single tear; it was all an act.

"How did this escalate to the point of crying?"

Lin Shaobai patted Wang Churan on the back and pulled her into his arms: "You're so beautiful, I bet a lot of people compliment you, right?"

"Of course, from childhood to adulthood, everyone who has met me has praised my good looks."

"Yeah, but is it really necessary for you to cry?"

"Well, I just wanted the person I like to compliment me, but they all rejected me so heartlessly..."

"Not only do you not praise me, but your girlfriend is also yelling at me!"

"?"

Lin Shaobai thought for a few seconds.

In those few seconds, he had already thought through what Zhou Ye had been doing lately.

But my senior sister was always at school working on her thesis.

How could he possibly have time to meet Wang Churan?

Even if they saw each other, they wouldn't be so fierce, would they?

My senior sister has a quirky personality, unlike Xiao Tian.

In some ways, Tian Xiwei is very much like someone who explodes at the slightest provocation.

The senior sister might say a few words in a slightly calmer manner.

Could you be referring to Zhang Jingyi?
If it were her, it would make even less sense.

She has a gentle and mild personality, so she probably won't argue, let alone be mean to anyone.

"real or fake?"

"Waaaaah, of course it's true."

Wang Churan tidied her beautiful black hair.

"Her name is Wang Cuihua." "Wang..."

Lin Shaobai instinctively wanted to refute.

I think this is a rumor, a complete fabrication.

When did he get involved with a woman named Wang Cuihua?

But she quickly realized that this name was the strange nickname that Tian Xiwei had given herself.
"You mean..."

"Yes, it's Tian Xiwei."

"She..."

"Yes, it's her."

Wang Churan made a joke on purpose.

Actually, she didn't care about the argument she had with Tian Xiwei at the time.

Later, I even thought about it and wondered, was it an argument?
It was just a few words exchanged.

Wang Churan lowered her head to recall the scene at the KTV, and when she looked up again, she found that Lin Shaobai had fallen asleep!
"Huh? What's going on? What's going on?!"

"How did you fall asleep so quickly?"

"Hey……"

……

……

……

After returning home, Tian Xiwei did not think about Wang Churan.

She continued to diligently study the script, memorize her lines, and act on set.

Immersing myself in the role of Li Wei allows me to forget many things.

After the film crew finished work that evening, she and several other actors gathered together to play cards.

A short while later, one of them invited Lin Shaobai.

"Hey, let's hurry up and play some poker with our top star, otherwise we won't have another chance later."

One of the actors joked.

She didn't use the yin and yang symbol; it was purely an expression of her admiration for Lin Shaobai.

For unknown actors like them, what other opportunities do they have to meet a top star like Lin Shaobai, besides acting?

Not to mention playing poker with Lin Shaobai.

Tian Xiwei was wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt, holding a card in one hand and resting her face on her other hand.

She glanced at Lin Shaobai before looking at her own cards.

"Yes, I am also blessed. Lin Shaobai, having you is my blessing, Zhang San."

Lin Shaobai: "Sometimes I find you quite funny, Xiao Tian. One four."

"I'm actually a comedian, don't let my sweet looks fool you."

Tian Xiwei chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"Is Oda a comedian? I really didn't realize that."

"Actually, Xiaotian is quite outgoing. I like making friends with people like Xiaotian."

"Me too, I feel that living with people like that is full of energy."

The actors around her all spoke highly of Tian Xiwei.

Tian Xiwei pursed her lips shyly when she heard everyone praising her.

She's as cute as a baby now, a well-behaved child praised by teachers and parents alike.

"Oh my, Xiaotian seems to be shy, how cute."

"She blushed when she heard us praising her."

"Who's famous? It's normal for you to praise me! I'm so outstanding, shouldn't I be praised?! Humph."

Tian Xi said with a touch of arrogance.

As she spoke, she used gestures, which allowed Lin Shaobai, who was standing next to her, to see all the playing cards in her hand.

Lin Shaobai said he really saw it by accident.

He doesn't have the habit of secretly watching others take pictures, but who would have thought that Tian Xiwei would see that action?

The two exchanged a knowing glance, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

"Lin Shaobai!"

"What are you doing?"

"You're openly looking at my cards, can't you have a little sportsmanship?"

"Who was looking at you? You were waving your arms and legs around, you were the one who showed me the cards."

"you!"

The two started arguing again.

When her fellow actors from the same production crew saw this, instead of stopping the fight, they all wore warm, aunt-like smiles.

Aside from Liu Meihan, many people in the crew were shipping the two as a couple.

When a handsome man and a beautiful woman are together, it's bound to spark the imagination, especially since they're playing the male and female leads.

There's no way to avoid it!

If you've seen the videos filmed by the staff specifically responsible for behind-the-scenes footage, you'll find that many people are quietly observing the two of them behind the scenes.

Some actors are fans of the show, while others are fans of the staff.

Neither Lin Shaobai nor Tian Xiwei knew about this.

All they knew was that there was a crazy Liu Meihan who openly and secretly wanted to pair them up.

Even when they're bickering now, people around them would think, "Wow, they're so sweet together! Why don't they just get together?"

Go get married soon.

There are so many people who hope that the two of them will get married.

Oh no, I mean the bed has been moved in, let's hurry.

"I told you, you see, those two are still so adorable."

"I knew it! Even their arguments have such great chemistry. Their male and female leads are just like ours, fighting off-screen and off-screen."

"Perhaps it's fate."

"Husband and wife bickering."

Even when Lin Shaobai and Tian Xiwei were arguing, they could still hear the comments from others.

The two turned around in unison and said, "Who said he's my wife?!"

An actress said, "But you two were a married couple in the drama. Although you had a lot of arguments and didn't like each other at first, the plot was that you got married first and then fell in love, and in the end you were so deeply in love."

When on set, one must immerse oneself in the story, so Lin Shaobai and Xiao Tian did not refute anything.

The two rivals glanced at each other, then simultaneously turned their heads to one side.

"continue!"

Time passed by, and people left one by one.

In the end, only one actress remained: Tian Xiwei and Lin Shaobai.

They were also getting ready to leave; playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) for too long wasn't very interesting anymore.

Tian Xiwei was so thirsty from shouting that she decided to have a glass of juice before leaving.

I don't know why, but lately I seem to be getting hurt.

Even when I'm just walking, my toes keep bumping against the corner of the table.

As we all know, it's excruciatingly painful to hit your toe on a table corner.

Tian Xi screamed in pain and collapsed to the ground, clutching her foot.

"what happened?"

Lin Shaobai and the actress ran over together. He caught Tian Xiwei just as she was about to bump into the table.

Tian Xiwei then nestled into his arms.

She was in quite a bit of pain at first, but she was stunned for a moment after feeling her body enveloped in warmth.

She knew that she was currently being held in Lin Shaobai's arms.

It should have been a very heartwarming scene.

But right now, my foot hurts more!
The young actress burst out laughing when she saw this.

Let's say that being the last to leave brings good fortune!

I can't believe I can still see my favorite couple being all lovey-dovey.

Lin Shaobai: "Take your hand away, let me see how badly you hit your foot."

Tian Xi remained silent, still covering her thumb, which had been bumped earlier, with her hand.

"Hands away."

"..."

Tian Xi sighed softly and slowly withdrew her hand.

Lin Shaobai first checked if there was any bleeding where she had bumped herself.

If there is bleeding, it needs to be bandaged.

However, it seems there's nothing serious at the moment. If it hurts, just apply an ice pack.

Do you have ice packs in this room?

Lin Shaobai turned to look at the actress.

This actress is a minor character; after the show airs, people might not even realize she's played any roles.

"Ah...no, no, I...how could I possibly prepare something like that?"

"Never mind then, I have ice packs in my room, I'll carry Xiaotian to my room."

"what?"

Tian Xiwei said incredulously.

"What are you 'ha' about? In your case, you need to use an ice pack to relieve the local swelling. Otherwise, you'll just keep hurting."

"Then I'll just keep feeling the pain."

"Tsk, sometimes it's really hard to talk to you."

"How could you say that..."

Upon hearing these words, Tian Xiwei, who had previously been as impenetrable as a bronze wall, felt as if a small needle had been pricked into her heart.

I never felt there was anything wrong when I was lip-syncing with Lin Shaobai.

Why does it hurt so much to see him say something so serious?

She still cares about him deeply, as expected.

I care about him and don't want him to hate me.

Tian Xiwei, who was like a little lion with its fur standing on end, finally softened and was gently picked up by Lin Shaobai.

I'm still jealous.

She was jealous of Lin Shaobai's girlfriend, and regretted that she hadn't confessed her feelings sooner.

It was precisely because of these emotions that she was somewhat hesitant.

Lin Shaobai carried her all the way to his room.

After Lin Shaobai put Tian Xiwei on the bed, he took out an ice pack from the cabinet and applied it to her feet.

"How could you be so clumsy? You even bumped into the corner of the table while drinking juice!"

"With feet like that, will you still be able to film tomorrow?"

"By the way, how are you doing after your foot got caught in the door last time?"

Lin Shaobai asked three questions in a row, but Tian Xiwei did not answer him.

He kept his head down, and I don't know what he was looking at.

Lin Shaobai found it strange and asked her, "Tian Xiwei."

"Lin Shaobai."

"Ok?"

"Was what you just said true?"

"What did you say? Oh, you mean I called you reckless? You certainly are reckless, and I'm sure many others have said that to you besides me."

Tian Xi slowly raised her eyes, her mind as still as water, showing no other emotions.

"You said it's quite difficult for you to talk to me, do you not like talking to me?"

"Ok?"

Lin Shaobai's words were spoken without much thought, yet Tian Xiwei remembered them.

So, is Tian Xiwei silent because of that sentence?

"I just wanted to take you to get an ice pack; I didn't think about anything else."

"..."

Tian Xiwei kept staring into Lin Shaobai's eyes, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that he did not lie.

"call……"

"Have you been agonizing over this sentence all this time?"

"I...I wouldn't be upset by what you said." Tian Xiwei turned her head away and said sullenly, "But thank you anyway."
