Chapter 54 introduces Nan Ke, my brother.
After hanging up the phone at Crane Village, the director finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned around, wiped his sweat, and laughed, "Nan Ke was right, my sister has already called Teacher Tu."
"She's at Xu Chi's house right now, but it's a bit far from here. We'll go pick her up together when Teacher Tu arrives."
[Hilarious! Did you hear Tu Chaoxi's tone?]
[I bet you just said some really nasty things; your sister's probably trembling with fear now.]
So Nan Ke is actually quite amazing...
Yes, he knows his sister so well.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help looking at Nan Ke.
Nan Ke, however, fell silent, which was unusual for him.
After a long pause, he looked up and asked, "...You just said that Tu Chaoxi is coming over?"
"yes."
The director patted him with a smile: "I'll introduce you to Teacher Tu properly later."
The director recalled the missed calls from the investors and thought to himself, "Tu Chaoxi has now returned to being a semi-top star. Introducing Nan Ke to Tu Chaoxi and making a good impression would be the best way to repay them."
Nan Ke's face turned slightly pale.
Tu Yao had wronged him in the past, so at first he could hate her without any restraint.
But Tu Chaoxi, the eldest brother, had taken care of his younger siblings since they were little, yet he had been unwilling to acknowledge him for ten years because he wanted to completely sever ties with the past.
The more he hated eight-year-old Tu Yao, the more guilt he felt towards Tu Chaoxi.
He didn't know if Tu Chaoxi would recognize him, what if she didn't, and how he would face her if she did...
"Alright, even if Teacher Tu takes the fastest flight, it will take two hours to get to the city airport. Adding the time it takes to get here, it will take at most four hours. Let's not rush, let's go eat first."
"By the way, don't turn off the live stream. I'll do a live stream later to find my sister."
The situation has taken a dramatic turn; with readily available high-quality material, the traffic is sure to soar to new heights.
The director gave himself a big thumbs up.
However, two hours later, a helicopter landed at the village entrance, and Tu Chaoxi rushed out of it.
The staff were stunned and rushed over: "Teacher Tu! You...you're here already?!"
The live stream was filled with question marks.
[Teacher Tu went out and made her way in the world, even taking a helicopter ride.]
"Now that you've made it big, Tu Chaoxi, you're a bit too good for me."
The director rushed out, and upon seeing the scene, he was completely taken aback.
Tu Chaoxi immediately gave up her seat, waving her hand impatiently: "Explain it yourself."
Behind him, Xu Bai stepped forward, looking exceptionally obedient like a rooster with its head pinched, and politely waved to everyone: "Oh, I'm Teacher Tu's filming partner."
"The helicopter is mine; I lent it to Teacher Tu."
[The helicopter is mine... Such niche writing, I'll compete with you rich people!]
[Is that a Patek Philippe on his wrist? And is that big blue diamond on his ear real?]
[What a perfect young master! To be honest, Tu Chaoxi is quite attractive to rich people. Before, a heiress from Hong Kong chased after him to be his assistant, and now this young master has come to borrow a helicopter.]
[Thank you, director, for letting me broaden my horizons on this show. What are you standing there for? Say something!]
The director gasped; he'd never seen anything like it before...
Just as he was about to speak, Xu Bai reached out his hand to him first.
"I didn't mean to stand you up the other day. I... well, I did mean to. I didn't want to suffer in the countryside."
director:……
There's no need to be so blunt.
The director gave an awkward smile.
But the next second, something occurred to him, and suddenly his forehead buzzed.
"No, what did you say???"
What do you mean by "standing up"?
Xu Bai continued, "By the way, you don't need to transfer the money I invested in you. I'll start recording today."
Director: ? ? ? ?
He and his staff looked at each other in bewilderment.
After a long pause, he swallowed hard and said with difficulty, "So you're a guest star???"
Xu Bai nodded matter-of-factly: "Yes, is there a problem?"
Is there a problem...? This is a huge problem!!!
The director rubbed his face. "You're a guest star, so who is Nan Ke?"
Nan Ke came out upon hearing the news, and his expression changed slightly. He could have been straightforward back then, but he took advantage of the situation to get closer to Tu Yao, which was originally his problem.
After a few seconds of silence, he took a step forward, opened his mouth, and said, "I..."
But then, a force suddenly landed on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Tu Chaoxi.
Tu Chaoxi pulled him close and threw a sentence at the camera:
"Let me introduce you, Nan Ke, my brother."
She added, "I only recognized him after seeing someone dig him out online a couple of days ago."
"Thanks, director."
director:……
The entire room fell into a deathly silence.
Nan Ke's body jolted violently!
"you……"
Tu Chaoxi pretended to be calm and didn't look at him, but her hand trembled slightly as she firmly pressed down on his shoulder.
[I didn't hear you clearly, who are you?]
[Holy crap, your brother??? The arsonist is your brother???]
[A long-time fan chimes in uninvited. He did say before that the main reason he entered the entertainment industry was to find his lost younger siblings more quickly, but... he never expected Nan Ke to be your brother!!!]
[Are you two brothers so in sync? One of you is accused of the seven deadly sins, and the other plagiarized and committed arson. You must have all the dirt on your family now, right?]
[A bold guess: Could your sister be your sister?]
That shouldn't be the case; my sister has no scandals.
What exactly happened? Please explain it to me in detail!
Everyone was filled with questions.
"Alright, stop asking now. Ask later if you have any questions!"
Tu Chaoxi waved her hand and coldly snorted, "Now, come with me to catch Tu Xiaomao!"
...
On the other side, Tu Yao returned the phone to Xu Chi with peace of mind after being scolded.
Then, as Tu Chaoxi had suggested, they ate their fill, drank their fill of water, and played with Langya for a while.
He successfully yawned.
Xu Chi flipped through the book: "There's a beanbag chair inside."
Tu Yao shook her head and pointed to the door: "I want to sleep there."
Xu Chi looked at the small wooden house by the door, paused for two seconds, and said, "...That belongs to Wolf Fang."
Tu Yao had already crawled inside on her own.
Her muffled voice came from inside the cabin: "It's okay, you're a germaphobe, I'm dirty, so I won't sleep in your bed."
Wolf Fang, who wasn't a germaphobe, happily followed him inside.
The man and the dog quickly settled down.
Xu Chi paused slightly, his hand gripping the book pages. "How did you know I have mysophobia?"
Tu Yao rolled over sleepily: "...I can't see any dust inside."
Xu Chi chuckled softly.
He thought that as long as she wanted to make friends with someone, she would be successful in everything she did.
Two hours later, Tu Chaoxi, Nan Ke, a group of people from the production crew, and Xu Bai, who had forcibly followed, arrived at the location given by Tu Yao.
The further they went in, the uglier Tu Chaoxi's expression became.
"You brat, running so far! If you can run so fast, I'll sign you up for the Beijing Marathon next month!"
The director couldn't help but advise, "Teacher Tu, please be nicer. Don't be so harsh on your sister. She must be very anxious too."
"Yes, my sister didn't come all this way on purpose. She came to see a friend. She was scolded by you this morning, and she's probably feeling really bad now."
Tu Chaoxi frowned. "Is that so..."
"Of course, the young lady is shy, so you can't be so fierce."
Tu Chaoxi frowned even more deeply.
It seems so. Nan Ke is gentle and kind, and Tu Xiaomao seems to like him quite a bit, looking for him every few days.
Otherwise... I won't scold her later?
"Hey! I think we've arrived!"
Tu Chaoxi immediately looked up and saw a wooden house of moderate size in front of her.
There was another small wooden house next to the main wooden house. Wolf Fang raised his head warily after hearing the noise.
Beside her, Tu Yao, dressed in her signature yellow floral outfit, lay sprawled out, fast asleep.
Tu Chaoxi: ...
Everyone: ...
[Oh... the top star makes a comeback, only to find his sister sleeping in the doghouse?]
Tu Chaoxi sneered: "Is this what you call being anxious and reflecting?"
[A top star returns, only to find his sister sleeping in a doghouse in repentance.]
