Chapter 34 Chapter 34
He Xianyu retracted his claws in embarrassment. Although Xiao Qinghe was his class teacher, his stepfather's nephew, and his current boss, Xiao Qinghe was also a villain in the book. He was never as gentle and amiable as he appeared in variety shows. "I still don't want this employee benefit."
"Here you go, keep it." Xiao Qinghe grabbed his hands and put them back on her waist, "Hold it tight."
The horse's big nostrils were opening and closing, emitting hot air, and its tail was swinging slowly. With the crack of a whip, it happily exhaled a breath of hot air from its nostrils, slowly took small steps, and ran forward with a crisp "da da" sound.
It was He Xianyu’s first time riding on a horse. His body was rocking rhythmically, and the scenery in front of him was shaking up and down.
This feeling is so novel and interesting.
"I have a friend who has loved reading martial arts novels since he was a child—"
Xiao Qinghe interrupted him, "That friend must be you."
"Okay, that's me. When I was a kid, I imagined myself to be a knight, riding a horse and wielding a sword. When I saw injustice, I would draw my sword and help." He Xianyu recalled his childhood and was amused by his silly self at that time. "I even slapped the bed sheet and held a broom, pretending to be a martial arts master."
A mini version of He Xianyu couldn't help but pop up in Xiao Qinghe's mind.
A soft and tender child, with a little chubby face, waving his arms and legs. He must be very cute.
"Then why did you reject that fantasy drama? Sword and Soul can also satisfy your dream of becoming a hero."
"I'm not ready to be an actor yet." In fact, He Xianyu has no specific plans for her acting career at all.
Perhaps with his current fame, he can get some promotions and appear on some variety shows that suit him. When he has time, he can start a live broadcast to share his recent life with his fans.
The entertainment industry is too complicated, and He Xianyu feels that she does not have the ability to ride the waves in it.
Xiao Qinghe didn't say anything. He signed He Xianyu without expecting him to bring much revenue to the company. As long as He Xianyu was happy and his uncle was relieved, he didn't mind spending money to raise a mascot.
After the recreation area, there is no one around. Sand dunes rise in the distance, glittering in the afternoon sun, as if you are in a beautiful oil painting.
"Hold tight." Xiao Qinghe has been learning horse riding since he was young, and never uses a double when shooting horse riding scenes. He raised the whip, and the horse began to gallop quickly in the barren desert.
He Xianyu hugged Xiao Qinghe's waist tightly. The wind whistled in his ears, the sound of horse hooves was fast and powerful, and everywhere he looked was the endless desert scenery.
Although this is just a pocket-sized miniature desert, without the ubiquitous cameras and the pressure of studying and public opinion, He Xianyu felt peace and freedom for the first time in such a long time since he came to this world.
Yes, freedom.
The once free and uninhibited He Xianyu was restrained by him the moment she entered the reality show.
He is very clear about the saying "people's words are scary" and he also knows how cruel public opinion is. It is like an invisible sword that can kill you directly.
So when facing the camera, there are some things you can't do and some words you can't say.
But at this moment, He Xianyu let that "him" out again. Looking at the blue sky, looking at the desert, feeling the free wind, being the real, imperfect, somewhat immature, and childlike He Xianyu.
The setting sun burned like fire, dyeing the horizon a dazzling rose color. The desolation of the desert and the magnificence of the sunset blended perfectly, forming a refreshing picture.
The rays of light fell on the yellow sand, reflecting a dreamy golden light, and the whole world was immersed in a warm and charming halo.
"Whoa--" Xiao Qinghe tightened the reins, jumped off the horse, and then stretched out his hand to He Xianyu.
Xiao Qinghe's fingers were long and slender, with distinct joints. When He Xianyu put his hand on his, he felt the warmth of his palm. Perhaps it was because cycling accelerated blood circulation, because when He Xianyu shook hands with him before, his palms were cold.
"How do you feel about the employee benefits?" Xiao Qinghe asked.
With the help of Xiao Qinghe, He Xianyu climbed down from the horse and gave honest feedback: "It feels great! But my butt hurts a little."
Xiao Qinghe: "..."
He Xianyu cupped his hands and said solemnly, "I would like to ask Senior Xiao to teach me a few moves of the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms'. I hope Senior Xiao will be generous in giving me some advice."
Xiao Qinghe: “…………”
He Xianyu behaved very calmly in the show, and Xiao Qinghe almost forgot that he was at the age when he loved to play and make noises.
Xiao Qinghe extended his index finger and tapped He Xianyu's heart from a distance, "Yang Finger."
"Ah, I'm dead. Hahahaha——" He Xianyu has a very low laugh point. He held his stomach and laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward.
Some people's laughter is very contagious, probably because it comes from a joyful heart and is particularly genuine.
He Xianyu is such a person who can pass on happiness to those around him.
Xiao Qinghe has been in the industry for many years, and he has a mask on his face that he can't take off. He has always appeared in front of the public with a friendly image. He always has a smile on his face, but sometimes he himself can't tell whether he is really happy or just acting.
However, Xiao Qinghe could be sure that, at least at this moment, he was really happy.
The sun sets in the west, the light gradually darkens, and the beautiful sunset glow gradually disappears over the horizon.
Xiao Qinghe led the horse and walked back slowly, guessing: "You must like Xiao Feng very much."
He Xianyu followed him closely step by step and started talking: "He is a great hero who stands tall and upright. He is the most perfect hero in my heart, with great righteousness and a soft heart. His martial arts are the best in the world, but he cannot be loyal, filial, benevolent, righteous, or loved. I cried to death when I read the chapter 'The cattle and sheep on the frontier made empty promises'."
Xiao Feng and Azhu agreed to live in seclusion in the frontier and spend the rest of their lives with cattle and sheep, but unfortunately he accidentally killed Azhu, causing the agreement to become "empty" and a lifelong regret.
This novel plot had a great impact on He Xianyu. From then on, whenever he promised someone, he would do his best to fulfill it. He would not allow the promise to become "empty" because of himself.
Unless it’s life or death.
Xiao Qinghe imagined the young He Xianyu lying on the desk crying, and the corners of his lips gradually rose: "It seems that I have to fight for the role of 'Xiao Feng' for you in the future."
He Xianyu was horrified: "Mr. Jin's coffin lid can't be held down! Is my image related to Xiao Feng in the slightest? You might as well let me dress up as a woman to play Ah Zhu."
Xiao Qinghe suddenly understood why He Xianyu could become the backbone of 301, because this person was so interesting.
Beautiful appearances are all alike, but interesting souls are rare to find.
If a person has both a good-looking appearance and an interesting soul, he will be invincible.
Jing Chen follows the rules, Jiang Bai is taciturn, and Gu Zeye is rebellious. Only someone with He Xianyu's personality can bring those three together.
The night falls, the stars twinkle, and the fragrance of books fills the air during evening study.
Students are quietly doing their homework, sorting out their knowledge, and organizing their wrong questions, or writing furiously or thinking intently, all working hard for their ideal university.
After Jiang Bai finished memorizing the 50 words for today, he saw his deskmate Gu Zeye drawing. When he took out the history test paper, Gu Zeye had already pasted a paper with a turtle on it behind He Xianyu.
Nowadays, primary school students are not so naive. Jiang Bai stretched out his hand to tear it, but Gu Zeye refused to let him. The two made a noise during the struggle.
He Xianyu noticed the movement at the back table, turned his head, and his gaze lingered on Gu Zeye's obviously guilty face for a long time.
Jiang Bai pointed at his back.
He Xianyu reached behind him and tore off the piece of paper that read "This person is a turtle."
“…”
He was really convinced.
Gu Zeye saw the blurry horse riding picture taken by Xiao Qinghe's fan, and immediately recognized the person behind Xiao Qinghe as He Xianyu. He almost exploded. It was okay that the head teacher was partial to her, since she was the "host" hired by the program team at a high price, but how could He Xianyu watch the desert and sunset with another man behind his back, and maybe even talk about poetry and life philosophy.
If he is unhappy, he will not let He Xianyu have an easy time.
He Xianyu turned to the back of the paper, wrote a few words, and handed it to Gu Zeye.
Jiang Bai saw that Gu Zeye, a volcano that was about to erupt, was suddenly covered with snow and bloomed with happy edelweiss.
He leaned over curiously.
He Xianyu wrote on the paper in beautiful handwriting:
Student Gu Zeye, you have won the title of "The Universe's Super Handsome Tree Planting Expert" in this tree planting activity. I am writing this letter to encourage you.
Gu Zeye, the most handsome man in the universe, is already finding excuses for He Xianyu. Yes, He Xianyu is just a student. If the head teacher asks him to go, can he not go? If the head teacher asks him to ride a horse, can he dare not listen?
So, all this is Xiao Qinghe's fault!
【Countdown to College Entrance Examination 67 days】
Xiao Wang's appearance raised the audience's expectations to the maximum, and finally, amid everyone's anticipation, the program team released the third episode.
Douban's largest entertainment gossip group is very lively, with a bunch of posts refreshed every minute.
——Xiao Wang, who had been missing for three months, finally showed up. He is so dark, did he go to Africa to create?
——Douyin friends, don’t you think He Xianyu is overpraised? I don’t believe that he doesn’t have a godfather behind him.
——So this is how the four lead singers were chosen. Am I the only one who thinks He Xianyu’s singing is just average?
——Come in and vote, who will be the vocal candidate for the art exam? He Xianyu, Cheng Rui, Cen Yu, Xia Chengyang?
——Reasoning, is He Xianyu too good at showmanship? He went to take a math test before he was even healthy.
——Who broke the news that He Xianyu ranked first in the mock exam? How can he get first place if he missed the Chinese language exam?
——Fuck! How could He Xianyu be so worthy as to be embraced by Qinghe's husband?
——Ahhh, this reminds me a little of teacher-student romance
——Mother Yu who endures humiliation in the group, get out of here, La Gua has become the top streamer, who gave you the courage
——I’m so nervous! The results are finally going to be announced. The first place will be either Qiao Enqi or Zhang Wanyue
——Qiao Enqi is really hardworking. Some people are so obsessed with CP that they want to gain traffic, but he has always been studying hard.
——Hahahaha, He Xianyu only scored 117 in math. Wasn't it too early to establish the character of that little math genius?
——To be honest, with that kind of physical condition, a score of 117 is already quite good
——Why is there anyone in the group who speaks for He Xianyu? Don't you see how you are treated in our group?
——He Xianyu English 146!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
——Is the world crazy? Or am I crazy? How can I get 146?
——History 92, Politics 95, is this the score an art student can get? Anyway, I don’t believe it.
——Oh my god, that rumor can’t be true? He is now competing with Qiao Enqi for the first place.
——Fuck, Director Guo is so heartless that he ended the show here. So who is first?
——Family members, I just want to ask, is there a possibility that the quality inspection papers were leaked?
——The program team helped He Xianyu cheat, right?
——Scrappy program crew, please stop bullying my wife Xiao Qiao just to promote He Xianyu
After watching the show quietly, I opened the forum and was shocked by the screen full of negative posts.
In the voting post for the vocal candidates of art exam candidates, a total of 8,637 netizens voted, and He Xianyu only received 137 votes, which was far behind.
A bunch of posts questioned the authenticity of the first mock exam results, because they didn't believe that an art student could get such a good score. He Xianyu's high school entrance exam results have spread all over the Internet, so unless he changed his head, it would be impossible for him to make such a huge improvement.
The rumor that "He Xianyu cheated" became more and more intense, and even became a hot search. Some people complained to the local education bureau, and some asked reporters to investigate the truth.
The next morning, the program team issued a statement denying the claim that they provided students with cheating conditions. The transportation and management of the test papers were supervised by the police to ensure fairness. The program team welcomes supervision, criticism and suggestions from all walks of life, but firmly opposes malicious fabrication, rumors and slander.
At this moment, He Xianyu, who is at the center of the public opinion storm, is preparing to record the spring sports meeting.
It is the most beautiful season of the year, the sky is cloudless and the sun is shining warmly.
The students all changed into sportswear and, according to the arrangement of the program team, lined up in three rows, with ten people in each row, and listened quietly to Xiao Qinghe.
"This sports meet will last for one and a half days. According to the points system, in addition to deciding the winning team, the MVP will also be decided. The MVP will become the Feiyue Sports brand ambassador and shoot summer promotional posters." After the cheers, Xiao Qinghe continued, "In order to help the students complete the competition better, we specially invited a senior, two seniors and a cheerleader captain. Now everyone applaud and welcome them."
Amidst the warm applause, the flying guests in red sportswear trotted in front of the students. Three of them are college students who have already made their mark in major TV dramas and movies and are the strong successors of future young actors and actresses.
He Xianyu knew two of them.
One is the "cheerleader" Wei Zhuochen, the deputy lead dancer of Storm Boys. Because his status is not as high as that of the "senior", his agent stuffed him in under the name of "cheerleader". He Xianyu met him when she went for an interview. He was a clown who was not good at fighting.
One is "senior" Xu Yining, the captain and lead singer of Storm Boys. After Storm Boys disbanded, Xu Yining was promoted by the company. With no acting experience, he was cast as the male lead of a big IP of a campus romance novel on Green Jinjiang, in which he played a cool and arrogant academic bully. The online drama received very good response, making Xu Yining quickly popular.
He Xianyu thought that enemies often meet again, and now there are two of them at once.
