Chapter 42 Variety Show

(Highlight: From this chapter onwards, there will be a part of the entertainment industry plot, a variety show, which can be regarded as the heroine's copy of eating melons. Readers who dislike the entertainment industry can directly skip this part [Guide Chapter 70], and there will be no entertainment industry plot later, and it will not affect the plot much.)

Hearing that she could eat melons up close, Nian Sui'an was a little tempted. But after thinking for a moment, she still shook her head.

"Forget it, the show takes a week to shoot, and Zhijing still has to go to school. It's not good to miss a week of classes in high school." The first year of high school is the time to learn new knowledge. Sometimes you can't catch up if you fall behind a little. A week is too long and it will delay your studies.

Gu Zhijing raised his hand at this moment: "I want to go, I can learn by myself!" He looked very excited.

Nian Sui'an exposed him, "You just don't want to go to school."

"Don't worry about that, isn't it the National Day holiday soon? Our program is filmed during the National Day holiday. We are live broadcasting and don't edit. The National Day is a holiday for people all over the country, so we must film it during the holiday to increase the broadcast rate."

Nian Sui'an was still hesitant at first, after all, this is not a small matter, but Gu Zhijing has already excitedly discussed with Qiao Peipei where the program will be filmed.

Nian Sui'an didn't know what to say, after all, she didn't care, anyway, she had nothing to do, and participating in variety shows sounded interesting. But Gu Zhijing is different. He is not yet an adult. Whether he can go on the show depends on his father.

So she reminded him, "Gu Zhijing, don't get excited for a while. I don't have the final say on this matter. Your father must agree."

"Does that mean you can go with me only if my father agrees?"

"Yes, as long as your father agrees." Nian Sui'an nodded.

"I'll ask him now."

Qiao Peipei added, "It would be even better if Mr. Gu is willing to participate. The three of them can participate in this show."

Nian Sui'an laughed when she heard this, "Don't even think about it. He will definitely not go." Based on her understanding of Gu Junxing, he would definitely not participate in any variety show.

Gu Zhijing had already spoken to his father. To some extent, Gu Zhijing was a big shot in society. He didn't care that there were outsiders around and ran over to his father and said, "Dad, I want to participate in a variety show with my little sister. Sister Peipei will also participate."

"What?" Gu Junxing asked doubtfully, not knowing how they suddenly talked about variety shows.

Qiao Yan understood what was going on. He explained to Gu Junxing, "It's a family variety show. We invite a few celebrities to take one of their family members to live in the countryside for a week to experience rural life and let the audience see what these celebrities are like in private."

Gu Junxing never watched the show, but he understood it. He asked his son, "You are not a celebrity, why are you participating?"

"Sister Peipei said there are a couple of amateur guests, Dad, just let me go." He even used the method of acting cute?

After Gu Zhijing was three years old, Gu Junxing didn't let him act cute with him. Now Gu Zhijing's behavior really made his hands itch and he wanted to beat him up.

He refused without a second thought, "No, we'll be shooting for a week, how can you have the time? Don't you want to go to school?"

"During the National Day holiday, I promise I can finish my homework in two days. Besides, our school also has homework for extracurricular activities. Others write about volunteering, working in their parents' company, etc., but they all write badly. I can write about participating in a variety show. How cool! Dad, please." Variety shows, how fun! Gu Zhijing has watched similar shows before. If he participates in them, his brothers will be jealous.

"Old Gu, if the child wants to go, let him go. I'm going too, so I can help you take care of that. Nothing will go wrong," Qiao Yan thought Gu Junxing was worried, so he promised to help take care of Gu Zhijing. Actually, he didn't want to participate in this kind of program at first, but Peipei begged him for two days, and he couldn't help but agreed. It's good to have an acquaintance on the show this time, at least he looks friendly.

Gu Junxing smiled and said, "It's not that I'm worried. He's so old, and he's always climbing up the roof and tearing down the tiles. Why should I be worried? I'm afraid he's too wild and will mess up other people's shows."

Gu Zhijing was unhappy to hear this, "Dad, what you said is true. I'm a human being, not a Husky that destroys the house all day long and ruins other people's shows. You think highly of me."

"Okay, okay, go if you want to go. But you said it yourself, and you promise to complete the homework. Does your Aunt Nian agree?"

"Ah? Oh, she agreed. She said she would agree as long as you agree." Gu Junxing mentioned Aunt Nian, and Gu Zhijing didn't react for a moment to who he was talking about.

Gu Junxing actually didn't know how to address Nian Sui'an to Gu Zhijing. He couldn't just call her "your mother", because the whole family knew what the relationship between them was like. But he couldn't call her "little mother" like Gu Zhijing did, because it didn't sound right. So even though Gu Zhijing never called Nian Sui'an auntie, Gu Junxing also said auntie. Gu Zhijing

didn't know a name, so his father wanted to call her older. He had already run out excitedly to share the good news with Nian Sui'an.

Nian Sui'an and Qiao Peipei were chatting and drinking tea in the yard. The yard was built like a Suzhou garden, with a beautiful view. Each yard only received one table of guests, so it was very private and it was very pleasant to drink tea under the corridor.

Gu Zhijing didn't even need to say anything, Nian'sun'an knew it from his expression.

"Your dad agreed."

"Yeah, he agreed. You agreed too, right? You won't regret it, right?"

"I agreed, I agreed. Really, I don't know why you want to go so badly."

"To brag when I get back to school!" Gu Zhijing said excitedly. What? He went to several countries. Even the number of qualifying wins was not as good as mine. I am the only one in our class.

Nian'sun'an and Qiao Peipei were amused by Gu Zhijing's expression. Nian'sun'an shook his head and said, "I really don't understand the inexplicable desire to win and lose of you little boys."

"So you have decided to participate, right!" Qiao Peipei looked very happy.

"I'll join in."

"Then I'll call the director right away and tell him I've found two particularly suitable guests!"

Qiao Peipei was afraid that Nian Sui'an would go back on her word, so she called the director right in front of her.

"Hey, Director Wu, have you found the amateur guests for our show?"

"No, that's great! No, no, no, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that I found them for you, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied. They're all very good-looking, prettier than me, really! They can even debut where they are, and I'd be a fool if I lied to you. Okay, I'll send you their basic information later."

"Done." Qiao Peipei said to the two after hanging up the phone.

"So soon? The director doesn't even know what we look like?" Nian Sui An was a little skeptical about this program. It was too hasty. Didn't the director even need to meet the guests?

"The shooting was about to start and they couldn't find anyone. The director was getting anxious. He believed in my vision and just met once before shooting."

"Okay." Nian Sui An nodded doubtfully.

In fact, the real situation was that the Qiao family was the sponsor of the program. Miss Qiao asked for a recommendation. How could the director refuse? After all, they were amateur guests. The selling point of the program was not up to them. It didn't matter who they were. It was better to have a recommendation, and he didn't have to spend time looking for them himself.

"Come on, let me tell you about the other people participating in the show. I guarantee it will be very exciting!"
