Chapter 67: You Fanatics
Translator: CTCTRANS Editor: CTCTRANS
The other people in the room only realized what was happening when Qi Wu answered the call.
“You called Qi Wu?” Jiang Xuxu looked at Tong Luo in surprise.
Tong Luo nodded. “There’s no rule that says I can’t call someone in this room, right?”
The others immediately fell silent.
Tong Luo’s mother passed away 3 years ago. From then on, she essentially had no other relatives.
As Qi Wu answered, she solemnly said into the phone, “Hello, Tong Luo.”
Tong Luo could not help but laugh at the look on Qi Wu’s face. After she finally suppressed her smile, she blurted out everything she was thinking, “Qi Wu, I will always stand by your side until the very last moment.”
Until the very second we need to duel each other, please rest easy that I will do all that I can. I swear, out of respect for myself and for you.
Tong Luo kept the last lines to herself.
Qi Wu looked at her with a smile shimmering in her eyes. “I hope you get what you want.”
“Thank you,” Tong Luo replied with an innocent smile on her face.
Although the phone call was short, no one pestered them about it.
The next person to make a call was Jiang Xuxu. Everyone watched as she nervously looked up before swiftly dialing a number.
Qi Wu’s phone rang once more.
The others were speechless.
What was going on? Why was this happening a second time?
Qi Wu blinked. She looked at Jiang Xuxu with a gentle and encouraging gaze while she reassuringly said in her gentle voice, “Xuxu.”
In an instant, Jiang Xuxu’s nervousness and uneasiness vanished.
She exhaled and mustered up her courage. “I will keep my promise. In the future, anything I gain will be yours too.”
As soon as she said that, she immediately switched her tone to a very cutesy voice as though she was not used to acting serious. “Wait for me, Sweetie!”
“Okay.”
Qi Wu obediently agreed.
After that, Qi Wu was called again by Ke Lu and Tan Song.
Like a goddess, she listened to the dreams and prayers of everyone around her. Just like a merciful goddess, she always had a kind and gentle response for them.
The last to go was Jiang Yiran.
He was silent with shock.
Confusion was painted all over his face.
Jiang Yiran looked at them in disbelief. “No! Y-You guys…”
He stammered for a long time, but he was so angry that he could not complete a single sentence. Finally, he burst out into curses. “You fanatics!”
Could their admiration for Qi Wu be any more obvious?
Jiang Yiran was huffing in anger as he finally made his call. It was to Tan Song.
Tan Song was confused.
The others were speechless.
When Jiang Xuxu, Tong Luo, and the others stared at him, Jiang Yiran felt a little guilty about his reaction. Still, he resolutely shot back, “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m just doing the same thing you did!”
The production team who had been keeping an eye on the room fell silent as they witnessed what happened.
Qu Man glanced at Song Qi who had not moved an inch for three whole minutes. He was petrified.
She patted Song Qi’s shoulder. “As you can see, Song, that’s what they wanted to do.”
When he heard that, the only thing Song Qi could think of was, Thank goodness, Hu Mofei is not in the room. Otherwise, I would be deaf by now.
Shen Xi smiled as he looked down at the screen displaying a young woman who was clearly the center of attention. An inquisitive look flashed in his eyes as he mused, “So many blossoms have bloomed.”
There was a sigh in Tang Liuhua’s voice as she said, “It has been so long since I’ve heard Tan Son speak so honestly to an outsider.” Song Qi was speechless.
Could they stop chattering within his hearing?
Despite all that, Song Qi found himself unable to look away from the image of
When the segment ended, Qi Wu got up and was about to leave when she saw Tan Song lingering behind her.
She glanced at Jiang Yiran, who was busy arguing with Jiang Xuxu and Tong
Luo, and turned to look at him. “Don’t you want to talk to him?”
During Jiang Yiran’s call just now, Tan Song had been acting off. The perfunctory tone in his voice was too obvious.
Startled, Tan Song dazedly glanced at Qi Wu. “You…”
He had just opened his mouth to speak when Qi Wu walked past him.
Whatever she said to Jiang Yiran apparently shocked him as he whirled around to look at Tan Song in surprise.
“Tan Song?” he called out.
Tan Song pursed his lips. After a while, he nodded. “I have something to tell you.”
Seeing that the two of them had something to say, Qi Wu and the others returned to the rooms.
Jiang Yiran curiously watched Tan Song. The fact that they were the only two people in the room made him anxious.
It was so awkward that Tan Song began to fidget on the spot as he recalled what he had declared during the call.
He had been so affected by the other’s fanatic behavior that he unwittingly blurted out something extremely cringe-worthy.
“Tan Song, I…”
Jiang Yiran had just opened his mouth when Tan Song interrupted, “You said that you’ve always admired me?”
For a moment, Jiang Yiran froze. He had felt happy at first, but when he saw Tan Song’s expression, he suddenly realized that things were not going in the direction he had expected.
That was because Tan Song looked extremely lonely as his entire body emitted a cold and distant aura.
He was all too familiar with Tan Song’s appearance. It was how Tan Song a year after making his debut.
Jiang Yiran opened his mouth to speak, but he could not say a word despite the many thoughts running through his mind.
“What’s wrong?” he blankly asked.
“I don’t care if you want to be ahead of me in terms of events or publicity. I don’t even care if you want to snatch away everything that used to be mine, but why did you steal my songs to be your stepping stones?”
Tan Song looked right into Jiang Yiran’s eyes as he slowly continued, “Is this what you mean by admiration?” Jiang Yiran was bewildered.
His mind went blank.
“No way!” he swiftly blurted without thinking.
He had joined the entertainment industry because of Tan Song. As he pursued his dream of music, he hoped more than anyone else that Tan Song could stand at the top of the world, just like he used to when he first made his debut.
However, looking into Tan Song’s cold and indifferent eyes, Jiang Yiran knew that if he did not do anything now, this relationship would be unsalvageable.
“I’ve never thought of stealing anything from you, much less your songs. I have been eagerly waiting to work with you from the moment I joined the company, but my manager keeps saying you aren’t in good shape for that. I was told to wait.”
Jiang Yiran had explained in a panic until a certain someone came to mind, instantly making him go silent in shock..
