Chapter 90 A Decisive Strike: Everything is Ready, Only the East Wind is Lacking
I had a good night's sleep.
The next morning, there was a knock on the door. When Song Ying opened it, she found Zhao Qinglu standing outside.
"Sister Ying, we're leaving now, and we came here specifically to say goodbye."
Are you leaving now?
Song Ying had assumed that, given Zhao Qingluo's playful nature, she would stay a few more days before returning.
"yes……"
Zhao Qinglu sighed, somewhat reluctantly.
If it weren't for the incident on the show, she could have spent a month with Gu Junting.
As a result, they only dated for two days before having to break up.
After seeing the group message yesterday, she cursed Xu Lanyan a thousand times in her mind.
Therefore, even though she didn't want to return to China too early, after learning that Gu Junting was planning to go back to film early, she bought a ticket for the same flight in order to seize the opportunity to spend time together.
"Sister Ying, I'm so reluctant to part with you."
Zhao Qingluo stepped forward and hugged Song Ying's arm, acting coquettishly, "When are you coming back? After you get to the capital, will I still be able to visit you?"
She really loves Sister Ying!
Song Ying chuckled and patted Zhao Qingluo's head.
"Our flight is this afternoon. I'll give Wen Jinzhao the autographed photos and some small gifts to pass on to her fans, and then I'll head to the airport. As for whether you can hang out with me... if it's convenient for you, of course you can."
"Yay! Sister Ying, you're so kind!" Zhao Qingluo said happily. "But, does Wen Jinzhao have an autographed photo? Sister Ying, can I have one too?"
Zhao Qinglu blinked, and Song Ying, of course, couldn't bear to refuse.
"It's possible, but the photos I have now were brought over by Wen Jinzhao on behalf of others, so I probably can't give them to you directly."
"It's okay, it's okay!"
As she said this, Zhao Qingluo rummaged through her bag, finally taking out a pen and then tugging at the fabric on her left shoulder.
"Sister Ying, it's okay if there's no photo, just sign it on my clothes!"
Song Ying could tell at a glance that Zhao Qingluo's Lolita outfit was quite valuable.
"No need, these are perfectly fine clothes, there's no need for that. I'll prepare a separate set for you after we get back to China."
"It's just a piece of clothing, it's okay, just write it here! Please, Sister Ying!"
When Zhao Qingluo started to act coquettishly, she was as soft and cute as a rabbit. Song Ying couldn't resist her, so she wrote her name on a ribbon on her shoulder. When the ribbon fell, it landed right on Zhao Qingluo's left chest.
"Hey, now you're really in my heart, Ying-jie! You'll definitely be so envious of Wen Jinzhao."
Compared to Zhao Qingluo's lively and boisterous nature, Gu Junting, who was standing not far from her pulling two suitcases, one black and one pink, was much more gentle.
He watched Zhao Qingluo and Song Ying with gentle eyes the whole time.
The real woman was making a scene, and he was laughing.
Only when Zhao Qingluo was satisfied did Gu Junting start talking to Song Ying.
"Ms. Song, I have a question I'd like to ask you."
"Mr. Gu, please speak."
“Recently, a friend of mine has a variety show and wants me to recommend suitable musicians to participate as judges. I’ve been trying to recommend Mr. Shusong, but I haven’t been able to get in touch with him. However, last night, I saw your and Mr. Qin’s performance video online and noticed that many of the pieces you performed seemed to be by Mr. Shusong, including “Changle” which hasn’t been released in its entirety yet. I guess you two might be quite familiar with it—so I was wondering if I could ask you to help me inquire about Mr. Shusong’s wishes?”
Gu Junting spoke with extreme humility, showing no airs of a movie star whatsoever.
Moreover, judging from his tone, Song Ying felt that Gu Junting seemed to have figured something out.
She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask for you."
"In that case, thank you very much, Miss Song."
Gu Junting breathed a huge sigh of relief.
After exchanging a few more words and watching the two leave, Song Ying closed the door and went back to her room.
Qin Shu had just finished making breakfast and was arranging it on a plate, and even placed a piece of red velvet pudding cake in front of Song Ying.
"Teacher Shu, you're about to be exposed. Did you hear what Gu Junting said just now? I think he must have already guessed Shu Song's identity. So, are you interested in participating?"
Whether I have any ideas or not depends on whether Brother Song is willing or not.
As Qin Shu was saying this, he happened to scoop out the white fungus, pear, and lotus seed soup and handed it to Song Ying with a small spoon.
"However, the most important thing now is to eat—please, Brother Song."
These repeated calls of "Brother Song" reminded Song Ying of the misunderstanding from back then.
In addition to basic acting skills, actors also need to learn vocal music and vocal techniques.
But having practiced singing with her mother since childhood, these things were not difficult for Song Ying, so she took a different approach and switched from a female voice to a male voice.
He would release songs he wrote, or short dubbing performances, or sitcoms, sometimes even playing several roles and portraying different personalities.
Later, by chance, those voiceovers were edited together by netizens and Qin Shu's voiceover.
Two seemingly unrelated paragraphs were somehow edited together to create a storyline involving two men, which became a viral sensation in the BL (Boys' Love) community.
Song Ying wasn't involved in the BL (Boys' Love) fandom, but she knew that there was a certain divide between BL and BG (Boys' Love) fandoms.
So she was honest from the beginning and said she was a girl, asking everyone not to ship her randomly, but no one believed her. They kept passing her original ID, A Song, around, making it A Song, and then Song Ge.
Some fans even sent her private messages with her BL fanfiction and erotic comics.
They all came from that clip featuring two men.
At that time, Song Ying was only a teenager and still very innocent. She was so frightened that she immediately deleted her account and ran away.
After getting to know Qin Shu online, she casually mentioned it in a chat and made a casual complaint. However, after a long silence, the other party sent her a screenshot of the backend.
It was the same male voice that had been cut together with her's.
Song Ying never dared to imagine that the world was so small.
During that time, Qin Shu kept calling her "Brother Song," which almost made her extremely embarrassed.
However, it was precisely because of this that the two discovered they shared a common interest and understanding in music. They hit it off immediately and decided to register a musician account together using "Shusong" as their ID.
The two collaborated on the composition and lyrics, with Song Ying performing the vocals in drag. Qin Shu handled all the post-production work, including the reverb, editing, and even the harmonies.
Because no other company had signed a contract, no one knew that there were actually two people behind the ID "Shusong".
"Whether it gets exposed or not, I don't care."
Song Ying took a sip of the sweet soup. "I have to respect your attitude."
"Your attitude is my attitude."
After saying this, Qin Shu felt something was wrong—revealing Song Ying's identity would be extremely beneficial to her development in the industry, as evidenced by the number of projects Sister Hong has been involved in; but if he said this, Song Ying would definitely be afraid of causing him inconvenience and choose to continue to keep it a secret.
so……
"Agree."
Qin Shu changed her words, "Qingcheng doesn't have any outstanding singers yet, does it?"
“You mean…” Song Ying’s eyes lit up.
Qin Shu blinked. "For a grand opening, we need to have some good luck to celebrate!"

On the day of my return to China, Sister Hong was the one who picked me up at the airport as always.
Not only that, Sister Hong also brought another piece of news.
"A while ago, Wen Xiaowen, the original author and screenwriter of 'Temptation Star,' was hit by a motorcycle and hospitalized with a broken leg, right after she came out of Huatian after finishing her script discussion. Ah Ying, guess what? That car accident wasn't an accident at all, it was deliberate!"
"Man-made?" Song Ying frowned. "Wen Xiaowen is an author, she shouldn't have offended anyone, right?"
Xiao Lu, who was in the know, said sarcastically, "Some people, if you don't offend them, they'll keep picking on you."
Song Ying understood instantly.
"Is it Sun Ruoxuan?"
"That's right! You remember Zhou An'an from Huatian, Sister Ying? She's the receptionist who took us to the audition that day. Didn't she join your fan group? She couldn't help but complain when the group members were talking about 'Temptation Star'."
Xiao Lu got so excited that she turned her head and clung to her seat, looking directly at Song Ying.
"It's said that Sun Ruoxuan wanted Wen Xiaowen to add more scenes for her role as the second female lead. However, although Wen Xiaowen looks like a softie, she has a very firm attitude towards the quality of the work. She refused Sun Ruoxuan on the spot and even argued back. Even the higher-ups at Huatian stood up for Wen Xiaowen. Sun Ruoxuan couldn't afford to offend anyone at Huatian, so she held a grudge against Wen Xiaowen and hired someone to run her over with a bicycle that same day. Fortunately, Wen Xiaowen wasn't seriously injured."
"This matter has already spread in the super topic of 'Temptation Star'. Although some people have been trying to suppress it, everyone has still heard some rumors. Many people have started to boycott Sun Ruoxuan and are calling for Yingjie to star in the film."
Song Ying knew that Sun Ruoxuan was arrogant and domineering, but she never expected that this person would be so reckless.
Every time, they put themselves in a minefield.
“What’s that saying again? When you’re sleepy, someone will bring you a pillow—Sister Hong,” Song Ying looked at her agent, “Did Producer Xie from Huatian send you the video of my audition last time?”
"I gave it to you." Sister Hong seemed eager to use it. "What, is it time to use it?"
"More or less."
Song Ying smiled and said, "Everything is ready now, except for the final favorable wind."
The little deer exclaimed in surprise, puzzled, "What east wind?"
The moment their eyes met, the couple smiled at each other and said in unison:
"A sweeping east wind that destroys everything in its path."
