Top Chinese celebrity: Debuted from Running Man

Chapter 253 Class 2.0
……

……

After that,

The ten female stars of "Up Idol" gathered together and chatted enthusiastically in the room. The stark contrast between the luxury car and the minivan when they set off for the airport was also very interesting to Liu Shishi and Jin Cheng.

"There's absolutely no smell of gunpowder, that's incredible."

Liu Shishi rested her chin on her hand, exclaiming in surprise.

Jin Cheng was also surprised: "The show 'Divas Hit the Road' only had four women, yet it became a classic 'palace intrigue' drama in variety show history. Here, there are ten women of varying status, yet they get along so well?"

"The main reason is that Sister Qingxia is a big star, she is easy-going, fun-loving, and has no airs. She can keep the atmosphere in check."

Gu Qing explained, her gaze still fixed on the program playing, "And Sister Na is really important. Without her lively antics and constant banter to liven up the atmosphere, everyone wouldn't have been able to relax so quickly."

There's a reason why "Up Idol" became a signature program of CCTV.

The program continued, and the casual conversations among the female celebrities in the car excited Liu Shishi and Jin Cheng even more.

Wow! Sister Qingxia is calling you 'little brother'!

Jin Cheng excitedly patted Gu Qing's arm, "Oh my god! She even mentioned my brother!"
It seems the title of 'younger brother' will really follow you for life.

"And Liying,"

Liu Shishi gently replied, her eyes falling on Zhao Liying fanning Gu Qing on the screen, "She's so thoughtful of you, even fanning you and wiping your sweat when you get in the car."

"But I don't see any ambiguity at all."

Jin Cheng leaned closer to Liu Shishi, and the two instantly started an encrypted call. Her voice was low but couldn't hide her excitement, "I still think there's something going on between Gu Qing and Nazha!"

She emphasized, "When we were filming The Fox Spirit Matchmaker, I saw the two of them together every day."

The two whispered amongst themselves, successfully avoiding the correct answer and precisely directing their gossip at Gu Qing and Nazha.

"Hey, hey, hey, Nazha and I... are still innocent."

Gu Qing couldn't help but facepalm and interrupt their "plot," saying, "Can you two stop making wild guesses?"

Although the unexpected kiss in the dressing room did startle him, according to the strict "judgment" standards of the entertainment industry—no "negative distance" communication—

That was absolutely a "pure friendship" that couldn't be purer.

"'There's such a thing as pure friendship between men and women? Nobody believes that!'"

Jin Cheng and Liu Shishi said in unison, their faces clearly saying, "Are you kidding me?"

"What normal man could resist a stunningly beautiful woman throwing herself at him? Unless..."

Jin Cheng looked Gu Qing up and down. "Unless you don't like women, no man could resist."

"Didn't we just hold back?"

Gu Qing glanced at her sideways.

"I rely on-"

Jin Cheng was momentarily speechless, then, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she let out an angry "Aow!" and pounced over: "So you don't like women, Senior Sister, am I right?!"

"Something seems... off."

Watching Jin Cheng, who was easily subdued by Gu Qing and pinned to the sofa, squealing and yelling,

Liu Shishi blushed and gently shook her head.

That long and intense filming of the kissing scene that night, along with certain physical "evidence," gave her a fairly direct understanding of "the fiery temper of teenagers."

The little farce has finally come to an end.

When Gu Qing made a stunning appearance on the screen in his crisp flight attendant uniform, the reaction was instantly unanimous—a collective gasp and suppressed screams.

"Flight Attendant Brother!"

Jin Cheng completely forgot the "humiliation" of being "suppressed" just now, and instantly transformed into a little fangirl again, her eyes sparkling as she leaned close to the screen, her infatuation completely exposed. Liu Shishi was even more mesmerized, her breathing becoming slightly lighter. For someone like her with a latent fetish for uniforms, the allure of this outfit was unparalleled; every inch of the cut precisely hit her aesthetic sweet spot.

In the ensuing "battle to recruit people" segment, Gu Qing was unexpectedly pulled away by the "annoying team," creating an unexpected comedic effect.

In front of the TV, countless fans watched their idols being "snatched up" by female celebrities, and the secret pleasure from their empathy was almost overflowing.

Being a fan of an idol is not only about finding emotional support, but also about a subtle sense of identity—as if the idol's glory is one's own glory.

When idols are loved, fans feel as if they are basking in that glory, which makes them feel proud.

"Ahhh, my baby is so popular!"

"Protect the best younger brother in the world!"

"Is this uniform even broadcast? It's so cool it's making my legs weak!"

"That top celebrity should take note: this is what a true heartthrob looks like!"

The live chat was filled with screams and pride from fans, who also took the opportunity to subtly criticize Lu Han, who had just finished watching Running Man.

Before we knew it, the program was nearing its end.

Liu Shishi and Jin Cheng watched with great interest, their faces beaming with satisfaction.

“It’s really interesting,” Liu Shishi said softly. “There are no deliberate, melodramatic conflicts. Everyone gets along naturally and happily. It’s full of laughter from beginning to end. It’s a breath of fresh air in today’s variety shows.”

Jin Cheng nodded vigorously: "Yes, it makes people feel better!"

But if we're talking about the brightest star of this episode, besides Brigitte Lin's irreplaceable superstar charisma, it would undoubtedly be Gu Qing, who filled in as the host.

The heartwarming interactions between him and Brigitte Lin, a relationship that transcends age, and the romantic "redemption" moment with Gulnazar, reminiscent of an idol drama, have ignited immense buzz for the yet-to-be-released drama "Legend of Nine Tails Fox."

Add to that his high EQ, good looks, and killer uniform charm that he displayed throughout the episode... Gu Qing in this episode is practically a walking fan-attracting machine.

"Well--"

Jin Cheng stretched lazily, a hint of regret in her eyes, smacked her lips, and picked up her favorite pillow again.
She slowly stood up. "Let's go, let's go. If I, this super-sized third wheel, don't leave, some people might kill me with their eyes."

She winked mischievously at Liu Shishi, then made a knowing face at Gu Qing, "I won't disturb your precious 'private time'!"

Two blushes instantly rose on Liu Shishi's cheeks. She did not refute, but simply lowered her head slightly, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, her long eyelashes casting a small shadow under her eyelids.

Gu Qing then typed a question to Na Jie about her 'changed feelings' towards him.

'Hahaha--'

Na sent a voice message, using laughter to cover up her embarrassment.

Gu Qing was about to type a few more words to refute this insincere "sophistry" when a soft, moist touch suddenly came to her cheek—a kiss as gentle as a feather, with a faint fruity scent.

Before he could even look up, his legs felt heavy.

Liu Shishi had somehow gotten into his lap, her slender arms encircling his neck.

Her warm breath, carrying a sweet fruity scent, gently brushed against his ear, bringing a slight tickle. A few strands of soft hair fell down, brushing against his cheek, bringing a silky touch.

"Qi Yu..." Her voice was soft and gentle, with a rare sweetness and shyness, almost whispering in his ear, "It's late at night...it's time to rest."

She borrowed the name of a character in the play, as if this would add a touch of courage and legitimacy to her bold actions.

"My kissing skills are really bad..."

Gu Qing's unspoken "ma" was completely blocked by the sudden softness covering her.

"I'll teach you..."

There were unspoken words to be exchanged throughout the night.
