Chapter 32
"Zhou Yu is back!"
As soon as Zhou Yu opened the dormitory door, he was warmly welcomed.
The roommates came forward to greet him warmly, but Zhou Yu silently took a step back and put on a sour face.
What these people welcomed was not him, but what he was holding in his hands.
His roommates had been with him for more than a year and were not afraid of his sour face at all. They got closer to him and became more enthusiastic.
"What delicious food did Sister Yao make for you to bring back this week?"
"Why don't you go back to see Sister Yao every week?"
"Can't we go with you to visit Sister Yao? We eat the food Sister Yao feeds us every week, so it's polite for us to thank her in person."
Zhou Yu pushed them aside, walked to his desk with a sullen face, and put the bag on the table. "Fruit pudding. It can't be kept for too long. Eat it now. I'm preparing for the competition and don't have time. Don't follow me."
The roommates rushed over, and in the blink of an eye, everyone took their own portion of pudding, pulled the chairs over, and sat around Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu's eyelids jumped, "Go back to your seats."
"don't want."
"We have something to talk to you about."
"Yes, we have something to ask you, not to find Sister Yao's delicious food."
Zhou Yu also pulled out a chair and sat down. "What's the matter?"
"Do you want to go to the comic convention next week?"
Zhou Yu: "No."
"But Mr. Zhao He is going to have a book signing. You like Mr. Zhao He so much, are you really not going with us?"
"We tried so hard to persuade you to open a Weibo account, but you only followed Mr. Zhao He and didn't even bother following us. You love Mr. Zhao He so deeply, how could you not go to the book signing?"
"Come on, come on."
Zhou Yu gives people a cold and aloof feeling because of his social anxiety, but even so, there are several romance novels on his desk that are incompatible with his temperament.
This also became a breakthrough for his roommates to chat with him. Every time they mentioned Teacher Zhaohe, Zhou Yu would pay more attention to them.
Two sentences a day, and you will become familiar with it after a while.
It was only after they got to know each other that they discovered that Zhou Yu was actually socially anxious rather than aloof.
"If you're afraid of the crowds at the comic convention, the three of us will surround you and promise to protect you well."
"We will never let strangers outside touch you."
"So consider going to the comic convention with us."
Zhou Yu hadn't told them that the Sister Yao they were talking about was the same person as Teacher Zhao He. He didn't need to go to the comic convention to see her.
"No..." He was about to refuse when another face suddenly appeared in his mind.
No, he still had to go, "I'll go."
"It's okay if you really don't want to go. We'll bring your book to sign..." One of the roommates reflexively started to mention it, but halfway through his words, he realized that what he had just heard didn't seem to be a rejection. "You agree?"
Zhou Yu nodded.
"It's amazing that you agreed!"
"Don't worry, we'll start the sandbox simulation right now. We'll definitely use the highest level of protection to protect you that day so you can meet Teacher Zhao He safely."
Zhou Yu was silent, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Yao Yingmo, asking her to be mentally prepared to be pestered by her roommate.
On the day of the comic convention, they will definitely jump up when they recognize Mr. Zhaohe’s true identity.
Yao Yingmo didn't reply, and Zhou Yu was not in a hurry to receive the news, but before Yao Yingmo expressed his position, he would not take the initiative to tell his roommates the truth.
On the day of the comic convention, Yao Yingmo got up very early.
Shi Xuze said that the makeup artists would come directly to do their makeup, and after the makeup was completed, they would leave together. When they arrived at the comic convention, they would be in a state where they were not afraid of being photographed by fans at any time.
Yao Yingmo had no objection to this. She had never held a book signing before, so she had to listen to her seniors in this regard. What if there was no place for them to put their makeup on at the comic convention?
Moreover, when she was communicating with the makeup artist this week, she was told that the simple makeup look she imagined in her mind would actually take several hours to complete.
Fortunately, after rummaging through her closet, she successfully found a set of clothes at home that the makeup artist approved of in terms of both style and quality.
She first sent a message to Shi Xuze and then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
In order to make it easier for the makeup artist, Shi Xuze also did her makeup at her house today.
Out of courtesy, Yao Yingmo prepared three breakfasts.
"Teacher Zhaohe, you should eat more breakfast. Once the signing starts, you won't have time to eat and can only drink water." This is what Shi Xuze said last night.
So, today's breakfast was a large portion of fried noodles, the kind that filled the plate to the brim.
When breakfast was finished, Shi Xuze also came with his makeup artist and rang the doorbell.
"I didn't expect that Teacher Zhaohe has such skills. If he doesn't write novels, his restaurant will definitely be very popular." The makeup artist took only one bite and praised him repeatedly.
Shi Xuze often eats and is relatively calm, but he eats a little faster. He has finished eating before the two girls have even finished half of their plate.
The makeup artist was shocked: "Teacher Hu Guang, you eat too fast, then go put on a facial mask first."
After Yao Yingmo finished eating, she was also asked to apply a facial mask.
While she was applying the facial mask, Shi Xuze had already started putting on makeup.
What surprised Yao Yingmo was that the time it took her and Shi Xuze to complete their makeup was almost the same.
Yao Yingmo looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is really amazing."
It was exactly the effect she wanted, and even with the makeup artist's ingenuity, her aura was elevated to a higher level.
She can definitely dominate the place today with this aura.
Shi Xuze's makeup style is completely different from hers. From the clothes to the hairstyle, and then to the makeup, there is only one word: gorgeous.
But I have to say, he is very suitable.
"You look great today." He didn't look as silly as usual.
Shi Xuze can dress up in an exaggerated manner and stand on the stage without hesitation, but in front of Yao Yingmo, he still blushes when he hears compliments.
Before he caught fire, his cell phone rang and the nanny car sent by the studio arrived.
When the two got in the car, there were already people in it.
Yao Yingmo greeted, "Sister Chang. Xiao Su."
Xiao Su was very polite. If they were not in the car, he would probably stand up and bow.
"Hello, Teacher Zhao He. I'll be your assistant for a day today. You can tell me if you need anything."
Before Yao Yingmo could say anything, Shi Xuze said, "Ah, then my assistant today won't be Sister Chang, right?"
"It's me, do you have any objections?" Sister Chang said, "I'm here specifically to keep an eye on you and prevent you from causing trouble."
Shi Xuze was not convinced, "I won't do anything naughty."
Sister Chang: “Really?”
Shi Xuze: "Of course."
A smile crept onto Yao Yingmo's lips. She turned to Xiao Su and said, "Thank you for your hard work today."
Xiao Su touched his head embarrassedly: "I will try my best."
The car slowed down as it drove near the comic convention venue.
Yao Yingmo looked at the nanny car in confusion as it drove towards the venue and then turned back, going back and forth several times.
Sister Chang also stopped talking to Shi Xuze and turned to talk to the driver.
Shi Xuze explained: "It seems that the fans have discovered the entrance where we were originally going to get off. Now we are waiting for the convention to rearrange it. We will circle around the area first to avoid parking directly next to the venue and being discovered by fans."
Yao Yingmo: "I see."
Shi Xuze: "The fans are really amazing."
Yao Yingmo: "I know."
As they were talking, the nanny car finally stopped completely.
Sister Chang and Xiao Su got out of the car first. After looking left and right to make sure it was safe, they opened the door and let Yao Yingmo and Shi Xuze get out.
After entering the venue, the two were taken to different lounges and reviewed the scripts with the hosts assigned to them.
Because it was Yao Yingmo's first time holding a book signing, the questions prepared by the host were very basic and safe.
Yao Yingmo did not propose any revisions.
She just refused the gaming session. She's not an idol, and she's not good at gaming, so it's better for her not to play games with fans.
She still hopes to establish an image that is powerful, professional, and intimidating, but if she plays games, it will definitely be ruined.
The host did not force her and after discussing with her, changed the session to a fan question session.
After some discussion, the host left first, saying that he wanted to communicate with the staff behind the scenes about the program process.
Yao Yingmo picked up the script given to her by the host and read it again, checking if there were any holes that she had not noticed just now. She also mentally simulated the answers she would have to give on stage later.
Xiao Su came over and asked, "Teacher Zhao He, would you like hot tea or milk tea during your book signing? I'll go get it for you."
Yao Yingmo thought for a moment and said to Xiao Su, "Have some hot tea. I have a thermos."
Following Yao Yingmo's instructions, Xiao Su found the thermos cup in her bag. There was still water in it after shaking it.
Yao Yingmo: "I filled some hot water before I left. Why don't you wait until I finish drinking it before making new tea?"
Xiao Su: "Okay, can I make some throat-soothing tea then?"
Yao Yingmo: "Do I need some throat-soothing tea, too?"
Xiao Su explained: "During book signings, fans will definitely chat with you, and if you chat too much, your throat will feel uncomfortable."
Yao Yingmo: "Then I'll listen to you."
On the other side, Shi Xuze and Sister Chang were also talking.
"You're still recording "Starry Sky" right now, so you have to control yourself today. Sign each fan signing session for as long as you should. Don't actively chat until the time runs out, or your throat won't be able to take it."
Sister Chang earnestly reminded him, "Also, drink more throat-soothing tea. Your fans will understand that you need to drink water."
"Sister Chang, I know all this." Shi Xuze was unusually well-behaved. "I'll tell the fans on stage later that I have important recording work to do. It's their turn to speak actively today."
Sister Chang: "Just be aware of this. If your throat gets inflamed again, how are you going to explain this to Teacher Zhaohe?"
Shi Xuze: "I will definitely pay attention."
Sister Chang stood up and said, "You should take a rest first. You will be on stage in half an hour. I will go to Teacher Zhaohe to check on the situation."
Shi Xuze waved his hand vigorously, "Sister Chang, you go."
Sister Chang closed the door of the lounge and couldn't help but touch her chest. Why did she have a bad feeling?
