Chapter 360: 335 Three Points of a Modest Favor
Having finished speaking, Pei Yunxi began to peruse through these invitations. It was indeed impossible to cancel the agreements, but she wouldn’t let herself be manipulated at will.
"Contact them, and we’ll go over today," she said.
A short while later, she had picked out an invitation that was closest in terms of time.
"Yun Xi, I’ll go ask for Mr. Jiang’s approval first."
Pei Yunxi did not stop her.
And sure enough.
Jiang Chen did not refuse,
understanding that a melon forced off its vine would not be sweet, he put off these invitations. On one hand, it was indeed out of consideration for Pei Yunxi, and on the other, it was for his own convenience. Keeping Pei Yunxi in East Sea would create more opportunities for them to be together. Given the current circumstances, it was not suitable to force her to do anything against her will. It was better to let her go to work, perhaps it would help to ease the tension between them.
That very day, Pei Yunxi flew out of East Sea with Cui Heng and a group of accompanying staff to Zhongzhou.
She was invited to be a guest star on a variety show.
Originally, she had no interest in this kind of outdoor reality TV, but at this time, interest was unimportant. What mattered was making a statement with her attitude.
The production team warmly welcomed her arrival, arranging for her stay at the best local hotel.
Although the viewers may only see a little over an hour on TV, the recording of such variety shows is quite complicated in contrast.
It took Pei Yunxi three days after arriving in Zhongzhou to join the production team and a full week to finish recording a single episode of the show.
Cui Heng, as her agent, was extremely diligent and accompanied her throughout the entire process.
Indeed, people need to work, or else when idle, one tends to overthink. After staying in Zhongzhou for over a week, Pei Yunxi’s mood had improved significantly, no longer feeling as suppressed.
"Yun Xi, are we returning to East Sea?"
Cui Heng asked after the celebratory banquet.
Pei Yunxi nodded her head.
Just as the two were about to get into the car to return to the hotel, several black cars drove up, led by a Hummer with aggressive lines. The cars moved neither fast nor slow, but they still drew conspicuous attention.
These cars stopped at the high-end restaurant, blocking the way of the production team and everyone with Pei Yunxi.
Doors opened one after another, and a group of plainly dressed men got out. They faced a group of public figures without any change in expression, each with the bearing of an emotionless machine, emitting a formidable presence in silence.
The last to emerge was a young man in his twenties or thirties, leisurely getting out of the Hummer with a sinister smile lingering on his lips.
This show was one of the hottest outdoor variety shows currently, and otherwise, the production team would not have the confidence to invite Pei Yunxi. The regular guests on the show could all be considered today’s hotshots in terms of popularity, with careers that, if not exceeding, certainly matched Pei Yunxi’s. Perhaps only Yang Ni could compare.
Yet, this young man disregarded them all, leisurely scanning the crowd before his gaze settled on the youngest, Pei Yunxi.
Even with several well-known actresses present, Pei Yunxi’s beauty still stood out in the crowd.
"What are you doing? Get out of the way!"
A few crew members quickly stepped forward to scold them.
"Hey hey hey, don’t get physical, or I might have to take a photo and post it online," the young man warned.
At some point, he had acquired a phone in his hand.
The crew members immediately became wary, not daring to make any rash moves.
"Young man, what can we do for you?"
The director of the show, a seasoned figure, sensed that this group was probably not to be triflected with.
"Do you want an autograph? Or a group photo?"
A female cast member, who rose to fame thanks to her boyfriend in the industry, presumptuously spoke up.
She was indeed good-looking and had many fans, and like Pei Yunxi, she was also an actress, even claiming a fee of eighty million, though its veracity was uncertain.
Confident in her appearance and fame, she was oblivious that the young man didn’t give her the time of day, not even a glance.
"No worries, I’m just a fan of Miss Pei, and with her gracing us with her presence, as the host, I should at least extend some hospitality. Otherwise, outsiders might say we people from Liangguang lack manners."
In this line of work, such scenes were all too common.
However, the young man’s next statement made many people’s faces change.
"Miss Pei, I’d like to invite you to stay at my place for a couple of days. I hope Miss Pei can honor me with her presence."
Taking photos, asking for autographs, that was all fine, but inviting someone to stay for a few days?
Pei Yunxi remained silent. She was not a newcomer, and she had weathered many a storm. Such matters did not require her intervention—the production team would handle it.
When going somewhere to film a show, the show’s organizers always ensure local coordination.
"Young man, I’m afraid that’s a little inappropriate. Please step aside, we need to return to our hotel," the director said, polite but firm. He did not want to cause any trouble but was not afraid of it either. For such filming, roads often needed to be blocked; without care from city leaders, how could they proceed?
And how could they be intimidated by a youngster?
"You can all go, but Miss Pei must stay," the young man driving the Hummer replied with a smile.
"Director Wang, there’s no need to waste time with this young punk," a male celebrity on the show commented disdainfully.
"Young man, if you don’t leave, I will call the police. Then, it won’t look good for anyone," Director Wang threatened.
The young man just laughed and said, "I’m simply inviting someone to be a guest, why call the police?"
An invitation to be a guest?
Was this how one invited guests?
Could this kid be crazy?
