Li Peiyu was lying in bed, her fingers constantly swiping across the screen, carefully reading the comments from fans on Xiao Fan's trending topics, her expression revealing deep worry.
Seeing an unfamiliar number, I hesitated for a moment before answering.
“Peiyu, my little sister,”
Li Peiyu immediately recognized Xiao Fan's voice and was filled with surprise.
Xiao Fan, who is currently in the midst of a trending topic storm, should normally be overwhelmed with work and have no time to call himself.
"Fan, Brother Fan, is that you?" Li Peiyu's voice was filled with disbelief.
"It's me."
Xiao Fan's voice was as pleasant as ever.
"Brother Fan, are you alright?" Li Peiyu's tone was full of concern.
"I'm fine. You saw the trending topics, right?" Xiao Fan's tone sounded very relaxed.
“I’ve read it. I have a suggestion, though it may be premature,” Li Peiyu said cautiously.
"Oh?" Xiao Fan's voice carried a hint of curiosity.
“You could say it’s like playing Truth or Dare,” Li Peiyu said, expressing her opinion.
"Good idea. But there's an even better solution now."
"Oh." Li Peiyu didn't dare to ask too much about the plan. After all, it was none of her business to worry about the affairs of top celebrities.
"Do you need my help?" Xiao Fan suddenly asked.
Xiao Fan's words startled Li Peiyu, who quickly asked, "How can I help?"
“We want to invite you to my reality show ‘I’m Here’. We can create a CP (couple pairing) between you and me, and then the rumors will die down on their own,” Xiao Fan said, revealing his idea.
Upon hearing this, Li Peiyu was instantly thrilled.
Appearing on a TV show, especially one where she's paired with a top celebrity, means she can build a lot of connections within the industry, which is an opportunity she's always dreamed of.
Xiao Fan asked solemnly, "Are you willing?"
Li Peiyu answered without hesitation, "I'm willing."
"I'll send you the address. Come over to record tomorrow morning."
"Okay, received." Li Peiyu's reply was crisp and efficient, but she couldn't suppress her excitement.
Xiao Fan continued, "This recording is crucial. I hope we can work together seamlessly and successfully resolve this crisis."
Li Peiyu quickly said, "Brother Fan, don't worry, I will do my best."
"Okay, I'll send you the address. You can fly there right away, and we'll start filming as soon as you arrive."
Li Peiyu nodded vigorously and replied, "Okay, Brother Fan."
After ending the call with Xiao Fan, Li Peiyu booked a flight for midnight, packed a few clothes, and rushed to the airport.
The show was filmed at a villa, and Xiao Fan was a regular guest. Each episode, one or more other celebrities would come to the villa and spend two days and one night with Xiao Fan.
Before leaving, Li Peiyu sent a voice message to Lu Yuzhi, briefly telling him about the matter.
Li Peiyu had just stepped off the plane and hadn't even had time to stretch her slightly stiff body when her gaze was drawn to two figures holding signs and bouquets of flowers at the exit.
Behind them, two young men were carrying cameras and intently filming.
Li Peiyu looked closely and saw that the sign had several eye-catching words written on it: "Welcome, little sister Li Peiyu," with a heart drawn next to it in an ambiguous way.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she instantly realized that this must be someone sent by the production team to pick her up, and that filming had already begun.
Li Peiyu took a deep breath, walked over with elegant steps, and greeted the staff member holding the sign with a polite smile, "Hello."
The staff member asked with a warm smile, "Are you Li Peiyu?"
Li Peiyu nodded slightly, "Yes."
The staff member continued, "Brother Fan, he's waiting for you at home. Please come with us."
Li Peiyu responded, "Okay."
Afterwards, the staff took the suitcase from Li Peiyu, presented her with the bouquet of beautiful flowers, and led her to Xiao Fan's nanny car, which sped towards the villa.
Inside the car, the staff chatted with Li Peiyu, their words subtly hinting at Xiao Fan's special treatment of her.
"Brother Xiao Fan, this is the first time we've sent someone to pick up our guests. In the past, our guests always went by themselves."
Li Peiyu smiled slightly, trying her best to appear well-mannered and not to show the slightest arrogance.
The staff member asked curiously, "Ms. Li Peiyu, have you known Brother Xiao Fan for a long time?"
Li Peiyu gently shook her head. "Not long."
The staff member continued, "The car we're in now belongs to Xiao Fan. He specifically asked that his car be used to pick you up."
Li Peiyu simply smiled slightly, but in her heart she was thinking that the Xiao Fan pairing had already become a hot topic.
A short while later, the car slowly came to a stop, and they finally arrived at the recording site.
Li Peiyu took out her phone to check the time; it was already 8:30 in the morning.
The staff members had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Li Peiyu's phone wallpaper.
"May I take a look at your wallpaper?"
A look of embarrassment immediately appeared on Li Peiyu's face.
Before setting off, she specially changed her wallpaper to a picture of Xiao Fan, just to match the effect of the show.
After repeated requests from the staff, Li Peiyu showed the wallpaper.
Upon seeing this, a staff member remarked, "It's Brother Xiao Fan."
Two days later, Li Peiyu successfully completed the recording.
When the show aired, Li Peiyu was at Lu Yuzhi's villa. The two sat side by side on the sofa, watching her performance together on a tablet.
From the moment Xiao Fan arranged to pick them up at the airport, fans kept sending comments expressing their envy.
When they saw Li Peiyu get into Xiao Fan's van again, the fans went even crazier, and the screen was filled with comments.
Later, the first game that Li Peiyu and Xiao Fan participated in was answering questions from the production team and writing their answers on their own boards.
The first question is, "What is your relationship?"
After a moment's thought, Li Peiyu wrote down the word "friend".
Xiao Fan also wrote "friends," but he added a plus sign after the two Chinese characters, a subtle difference that instantly sparked heated discussion among fans.
The second question is, "What does Xiao Fan like to eat the most?"
Li Peiyu immediately recalled the scene of visiting Xiao Fan's house, where he specifically requested steamed chicken with wine, so she wrote "steamed chicken with wine" without hesitation.
As expected, Xiao Fan's answer was the same.
Seeing this, the staff member jokingly remarked, "I also want to eat steamed chicken with wine."
The scene was immediately filled with joyful laughter.
The third question is, "Where did the two first meet?"
Li Peiyu answered truthfully, "At Xiao Fan's house."
Xiao Fan simply wrote "My home".
Fans were thrilled and flooded the screen with comments expressing their excitement and love for the ship.
Many people also commented that Xiao Fan is clearly straight, as his eyes sparkled when he looked at Li Peiyu, and his tender gaze was impossible to hide.
Lu Yuzhi, watching from the screen, said jealously, "You have such good eyesight, how come I can't see the stars in his eyes?"
Next, we made lunch together.
