Chapter 253 A Stark Contrast



"I happen to have a day off today, and I'm watching a show at home right now. Zhouzhou, are you nervous about going on the show? If you are, let me tell you a trick: drink more tea. I used to drink tea first when I was nervous, and it always worked."

Ye Zhizhou pondered for a moment. Drinking tea could relieve tension? How come she had never heard of that?

Ye Qian always manages to bring her unexpected surprises.

However, compared to Huang Wan's brother Huang Yiming, who was not talkative, Ye Qian was unusually talkative.

"Brother, we're on TV right now, so there's no tea. I'll try some after the show."

Ye Qian nodded. "That's true, but with me here, don't be afraid. Say whatever you want."

Meng Xiaochen looked on with envy; she also wished she had a brother like Ye Qian.

However, Ye Zhizhou herself always felt that her appearance on the show was like going to school in her brother's eyes, and he was afraid that she would be bullied.

Seeing that they had finished their conversation, He Guinian said, "Ye Qian, don't worry, this show is just about chatting about everyday life."

He turned the video around, and Ye Qian lost sight of Ye Zhizhou, his eyes showing a hint of disappointment.

However, he knew this was a recording of a program and there was a plan for the program, so he didn't say anything.

"Then, Teacher He, I'll have to ask you to take good care of my sister. She's a newbie in the entertainment industry and doesn't have much experience yet."

After he finished speaking, He Guinian hung up the video call and returned to the program.

Ye Zhizhou and He Guinian looked at each other again, and Ye Zhizhou felt that the other was looking at others through him.

"Teacher He, is there any other question?"

He Guinian snapped out of his daze, a faint smile on his face. "No problem, next one."

Ye Zhizhou found it somewhat unbelievable that he would just give up like that.

It was as if the person who had just made things difficult for him wasn't him at all.

Next in line should have been Meng Xiaochen, but Xiao Bei pushed Meng Xiaochen aside and blocked her behind her.

"Teacher He, I've long admired your name and I'm especially curious if you've ever lost your temper with anyone. Everyone says you have a very good temper, but I think everyone loses their temper sometimes, don't you think?"

She not only stood directly ahead of Meng Xiaochen in line, but also attracted He Guinian's attention first.

Meng Xiaochen felt somewhat wronged, but because filming was in progress, she couldn't say anything.

Ye Zhizhou frowned, growing increasingly disgusted with Xiao Bei.

He Guinian's expression was also not very good; he didn't like others interrupting his plans.

"Temper can be controlled. The girl behind you is called Meng Xiaochen, right?"

Xiao Bei was stunned. She hadn't expected to be rejected by He Guinian again. She clenched her fists, sat back down, and pushed Meng Xiaochen out again.

Ye Zhizhou couldn't quite figure out He Guinian. What kind of person was he?

Meng Xiaochen is a bit introverted, and she stumbled several times during the interview. Fortunately, with a mature host like He Guinian to help her out, she wasn't too embarrassed.

However, it was completed smoothly. The most outstanding part was that Meng Xiaochen sang a short duet with her sister. Both of them have exceptionally good musical talent.

After Meng Xiaochen's segment ended, He Guinian leisurely began interviewing Xiao Bei.

"Your sister is known as a workaholic in the entertainment industry. She films all year round without a break. What do your family think about that? How many times a year does she come home?"

When it was Xiao Bei's turn, He Guinian was noticeably more casual, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it was unclear.

Xiao Bei smiled sweetly, "My parents are very supportive of my sister, and so am I. I've idolized her since I was little, and now I'm going to enter the entertainment industry too. I believe I can do very well!"

Ye Zhizhou: ...

Xiao Bei's emotional intelligence has dropped too much. This show is indeed mainly about the younger sisters, but now the question is about her older sister. Shouldn't we talk more about the older sister? Instead, she's only focused on talking about herself.

He Guinian's expression changed, clearly dissatisfied with the answer, because he couldn't continue.

"Looking at your information, you didn't graduate from the performing arts department, it seems you graduated with... civil engineering?"

Having worked as a host for many years, He Guinian possesses an exceptionally good memory, naturally knowing everything about each guest.

Those present were thinking to themselves, "Civil engineering majors are also studying acting." It wasn't that they were discriminating against anyone, it's just that the gap between the two majors is too big.

Xiao Bei looked slightly embarrassed. She hadn't expected He Guinian to bring this up so directly, and she hadn't been prepared at all.

But at this point, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer.

"Yes, although I graduated with a degree in civil engineering, I really love acting."

"It's not easy to make it in the entertainment industry these days. Everywhere you look, there are actors with real talent. Are you confident that you can compete with those classically trained actors?"

He Guinian didn't give her any chance to catch her breath and immediately threw out another question.

Xiao Bei's forehead began to break out in a light sweat.

"Of course I'm confident. Not all actors are from a performing arts background."

He Guinian nodded and smiled, "That's right. There are no hard and fast rules for actors. You don't have to be a graduate of a performing arts department, but of course, being a graduate of a performing arts department is a bonus. I believe you can live up to everyone's expectations."

Xiao Bei almost lost her composure, feeling a bit flustered when He Guinian suddenly praised her.

However, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, He Guinian did not continue to dwell on it, because she had never finished university.

She dropped out of college in her junior year to learn acting from other teachers.

However, to make her resume look better, she has always told the public that she has already graduated.

He Guinian could see that she was very nervous, and he didn't say these things unintentionally.

Xiao Bei always interrupted his plans, so he always had to make Xiao Bei suffer a little.

Ye Zhizhou felt that He Guinian's last sentence had a slightly sarcastic tone, and Xiao Bei probably hadn't quite grasped it yet.

Immediately afterwards, He Guinian dialed Xiao Ru's number.

Xiao Ru answered the phone quickly, but it was her assistant who answered. She was filming on set at the time, truly living up to her workaholic persona.

"Hello, Teacher He. Sister Ru is filming right now. Can I have her call you after she finishes filming this scene?"

Xiao Bei looked a little unhappy. Didn't her sister promise to support her? Why was she still filming at this time? What if it delayed her show?

Seeing that He Guinian had hung up the phone, Xiao Bei became a little anxious. "Teacher He, can we wait a bit? If my sister knew it was me, she would definitely call as soon as this scene was finished."

She didn't want to waste time and give it to the people behind her.
