Chapter 65: Eating, Playing Games, and Helping the Kids With Their Problems
Translator: CTCTRANS Editor: CTCTRANS
Qin Jiayan was one of the 40 eliminated contestants.
He knew that he did not have any talent as an entertainer, so he had always just lazed about when it came to points.
He did not even challenge anyone. Instead, he quietly waited for everyone to finish up.
When the group of people arrived at the exit to send Qin Jiayan off, Qin Jiayan suddenly looked at Qi Wu and said, “I’ve said yes to GAL.”
“Hm?”
Qi Wu stared at him.
“I will be heading to GAL’s headquarters for a trial tomorrow. If the trial goes well, I will join them as a player on their main team to compete in the next season’s tournaments.”
Qin Jiayan could not suppress his excitement, so joy and longing were audible in his voice.
The major esports teams had previously invited him to start from their youth division.
However, GAL had extended an invitation to him because their jungler was about to retire. They wanted him as a reserve.
However, a sudden family emergency meant GAL’s jungler wanted to retire early. Hence, GAL eventually decided to let Qin Jiayan start in their main team.
A faint smile appeared on Qi Wu’s face. “Congratulations on embarking on your path up to the stars.”
Qin Jiayan finally returned to the right path.
As he did not keep his voice low when he spoke, everyone sending him off heard him.
As a gamer, Jiang Xuxu was naturally the first to get excited.
“Then I’ll be able to see you in a tournament soon, right? I actually have a pro player as a friend now!”
“Not bad, dude. Remember to carry me in our games!”
Jiang Yiran was also into gaming, so he naturally joined in the celebration when he heard about Qin Jiayan’s offer.
The others also expressed their blessings to Qin Jiayan in their own ways.
Qin Jiayan had never been treated like this before and immediately felt embarrassed. Due to his introverted personality and the fact that he only played games, he did not have many friends.
Looking at the sincere and caring eyes of the people around him, Qin Jiayan felt warmth fill his heart. He turned to glance at Qi Wu.
He smiled brightly at her.
As Qi Wu said, his path would be one lit by the stars and accompanied by glory.
After Qin Jiayan left, the group returned to the villa.
Jiang Yiran placed his hands behind his head and loudly said, “I’m staying with Tan Song and the four of you are actually living together. No matter how you look at it, this isn’t random.”
He had no idea that his off-hand guess was actually the truth.
Jiang Xuxu rolled her eyes and retorted, “Why? Are you jealous of us?”
“Why would I be jealous of you?”
Jiang Yiran was so angry that he laughed.
He held his chin up high and continued, “After all, I’m living with Tan Song.”
Tan Song was at a loss for words.
He pursed his lips tightly as confusion flashed in his eyes.
Why did Jiang Yiran seem to have changed into a completely different person ever since appearing on this show?
Compared to how he would constantly pick fights with Tan Song before as well as the insistent desire to always be better…He was acting like he had never done any of that.
As Jiang Xuxu and Jiang Yiran joked around, the group soon parted ways to head back to their rooms.
Jiang Xuxu swiftly grabbed Qi Wu’s arm. “Yay! I’ve always wanted to live with you, Sweetie!”
However, when Jiang Xuxu returned to the room, she spotted the lonely backpack on Qi Wu’s bed. As she looked at her own suitcases, she fell silent.
“Sweetie, don’t tell me this is all you have?” she eventually asked.
Qi Wu nodded.
Hence, Jiang Xuxu’s pity for Qi Wu grew once more.
Qi Wu was an angel. She should be loved and pampered. Why was her life like this?
It was no wonder Qi Wu never put on makeup before.
Jiang Xuxu’s imagination kept adding more details to Qi Wu’s supposedly miserable life. In her eyes, Qi Wu was a subject of great sympathy.
“Don’t worry. In the future, what I have, you will too!”
Qi Wu was confused by the abrupt promise.
Just then, Qi Wu’s phone rang.
Jiang Xuxu kindly walked away. “Go answer the call. I’ll unpack.”
Qi Wu glanced at her before walking into the bathroom.
The call was from Chang Xun.
“You didn’t get eliminated, did you?” He sounded very cautious like he was afraid of provoking Qi Wu.
… No, I didn’t.”
Qi Wu paused for a second before she replied.
Chang Xun could be heard heaving a loud sigh of relief.
“Which category did you choose?” he asked.
“Actor.”
When she recalled Chang Xun’s previous reaction, Qi Wu pursed her lips as a headache built up in her head. “It’s not because of Jin Si.”
“Don’t make a fuss.
Chang Xun was speechless.
What kind of tone was that? Was he that unreasonable in her eyes?
Chang Xun felt a pang of pain. His sweet and obedient talent was no longer as sweet. Still, he dutifully said, “You haven’t studied acting before. If you have the chance, watch the others and learn from them. You know Tong Luo, right?
Try to learn from her.”
Chang Xun made his judgment based on the fact that Tong Luo had shared Qi Wu’s post yesterday when the internet hated Qi Wu.
After all, Tong Luo was a child star who had won the Gilly Blossom Best
Newcomer Award right after her debut. Chang Xun was confident in her skills.
Just then, Chang Xun suddenly thought to check on Qi Wu’s well-being, so he casually asked, “By the way, what do you usually do when you have free time?”
Chang Xun’s sudden bout of concern made Qi Wu seriously think about her answer for a few seconds before she obediently answered, “Eating, playing games, and helping the kids with their problems.”
Chang Xun had a look of disbelief.
Silence fell.
Chang Xun suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
Forget about eating and playing games, why would there be children with problems Qi Wu needed to solve? Qi Wu herself was a problem!
“Wait, no. You have to be career-minded, got it? Be professional! I might have said you’re there to play, but you’re too focused on having fun.”
Out of worry, Chang Xun did his best to advise Qi Wu to change her ways.
“I’m working hard.”
Qi Wu’s cheeks puffed up in disagreement with Chang Xun’s accusations.
“Sure…”
Chang Xun did not sound like he believed her.
“I’ll send you some educational videos. Watch them when you’re free. Acting skills are something you have to gain on your own through your own comprehension.”
Qi Wu agreed.
When she walked out of the bathroom, Jiang Xuxu waved at her. “Let’s take a nap, Sweetie. We have to meet up with the rest in the afternoon. I think we’ll be given a mission or something.” “Alright,” Qi Wu warmly replied..
