The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 341

Today is Tuesday. The Vlog of "Horror Escape Room" was released.

Many hardcore fans of "Horror Escape" rushed in and started flooding comments as usual.

However, they soon found that there were only three Vlogs.

Where were the ones with Guan Liangzhe and the other two celebrity guests?

Were they not aired or not even recorded at all!

Many viewers who had not watched the live stream expressed confusion, as the main show had not been released yet and they did not know what had happened.

Those who watched the live stream started explaining while hyping up the horror atmosphere at the same time.

The anticipation of the audience soon reached its peak!

-----------------------

Science Fiction City.

The footage of male lead one Gu Beihuai and male lead two Lan Tianyou were already filmed. Both finished shooting their scenes and wrapped up filming.

Lan Tianyou had already left earlier to start filming for another show. He turned out to be quite busy.

Gu Beihuai stayed behind at this filming site, going around every day with pots and pans to cook nutritious meals for Nan Xiangwan...

Nan Xiangwan still had a lot left to shoot, mainly action scenes. The Zerg monsters were all played by stunt actors.

On the missing interceptor ship that Yin Zun used as an incubator for the Zerg eggs, a large number of Zergs appeared and caused trouble on the mothership Taizhan.

Every day Nan Xiangwan was shooting fight scenes!

The plot of the whole story was not actually very complex, mainly relying on special effects and action scenes, and using the vastness of cosmic space as a backdrop to create a sense of scale.

Finally Friday came around after much difficulty, and Nan Xiang Wan was worn out from filming.

Every day after makeup was just fighting and killing, she had to control her strength too, to avoid beating the special effects actors to death...

She was so tired!

On Friday she took leave to film a variety show, with Gu Beihuai tagging along.

On the plane, Nan Xiangwan turned her head sideways to look at him.

Gu Beihuai was reading a book. Feeling the little chick's gaze on him, he turned a page and continued reading.

At the same time he vocalized to ask, "What are you staring at me for?"

Nan Xiangwan: "I was just thinking, how could a big name star like you end up being reduced to serving as my assistant?"

He had finished shooting, but was lingering around instead of leaving. Every day he was cooking and doing chores and stuff.

Now he even followed along to film a variety show, by her side inseparably like a real assistant!

Gu Beihuai's hand turning the page paused for a moment. Then he pondered carefully over Nan Xiangwan's words.

It really did seem like that when he thought about it.

Nan Xiangwan: "Your exposure is even higher than Xiao Dong."

Xiao Dong has been completely pushed aside by you.

Gu Beihuai adjusted his glasses: "When I retire I'll be your full-time assistant properly. You'll pay me a salary."

Nan Xiangwan snatched his book away: "Mantou said you have bad eyes, you shouldn't strain them by reading on the plane."

Gu Beihuai's eyes took on a smiling expression: "Alright, I won't read."

The little chick was expressing care and concern for him!

The flight took one and a half hours to reach Shang Hai. Xiao Dong was waiting punctually downstairs with the car lights blinking.

After the two got into the car, Xiao Dong shot an expressionless look in the rearview mirror.

Hmm, as expected.

These two had already turned into conjoined babies!

Vroom:

Xiao Dong stepped on the accelerator, drifting wildly!

Nan Xiangwan: "!!!"

Gu Beihuai: "......"

What's wrong with him?

Back at Ji manor, Gu Beihuai hesitated for a second outside the elevator, then walked into elevator number 1.

Not going home with the little chick today. Can't rush things.

Nan Xiangwan looked towards Gu Beihuai, then after entering elevator number 2 rapidly pressed the button for the 22nd floor.

Great!

Gu Beihuai wasn't snatching her food today. She could quickly go back to eat lobster!

She had already ordered takeout on the car ride over.

Hehe! He he he!

............

The next day, Nan Xiangwan went to the recording location for "The Singer".

Jing Da Shuai was right on time, arriving at Nan Xiangwan's dressing room with his team.

Nan Xiangwan was already sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed: "I'm ready."

Jing Da Shuai stroked her hair with his hand, then sighed.

Nan Xiangwan opened her eyes, full of question marks: "Why are you sighing?"

Jing Da Shuai: "Alas!"

Nan Xiangwan: "???"

Xiao Dong: "Is there some issue with my Ladyboss' hair?"

Jing Da Shuai: "No issues, very healthy hair, taken care of very well."

Xiao Dong: "Then, sir..."

Jing Da Shuai: "It's nothing. Let's start."

The theme for today was "passion". The specific director Zhang Rui had not elaborated much, only saying to leave it open for everyone to interpret on their own what passion meant.

To Nan Xiangwan's understanding, passion was simply another word for emotions.

Any kind of emotion, when taken to the extreme, turned into passion.

The wardrobe Jing Da Shuai put together for Nan Xiangwan today was very clean and simple. For the top half just a plain white oversized dress shirt, and black slacks on the bottom half, with black shoes.

There wasn't any kind of accessory on her entire body, just two very standard colors - the most classic black and white.

As for her hair, he had dyed all of Nan Xiangwan's hair back to black, and brought out a box of crystal chips.

He started to take each individual strand of Nan Xiangwan's hair and attach a crystal chip to the ends, spreading them out evenly.

Some were stuck close to the roots, some at the very tips, some were hidden amidst the hair strands.

After each and every crystal chip was glued on, they needed to set and harden...

The whole process was extremely meticulous, requiring patience and skill, and especially time consuming.

Those tiny crystal chips were almost impossible to find. Scattered amongst her hair, they would only glint under the stage lights.

Nan Xiangwan simply slept through it all, completely unaware of how complex this step was.

Xiao Dong watched the whole time - his eyes were getting tired!

Not to even mention Jing Da Shuai...

Finally everything finished setting into place after eight whole hours, which was also conveniently when the show was about to start.

8pm sharp.

The host Guan Liangzhe walked on stage. The instant the live channel opened, he bellowed!

Guan Liangzhe: "Yoohoohoo!"

Audience: "Hahaha!"

Today Guan Liangzhe was still dressed in top brands from head to toe, with shoes polished to a reflective shine and hair slicked back into a huge pompadour.

However he dressed, the more flamboyant the better!

But, the more he acted this way, the more the barrage of viewer comments roasted him.

Barrage comments-

[He's so dressed up today, will ghosts be enticed by Brother Zhang tonight?]

[His surname is Guan!]

[Good point! Brother Zhang, your clothes sure are fancy today. Watch yourself tonight!]

[Hahaha, vicious!]

......

Gu Beihuai sat in the front row of audience seating, Jie Chou beside him as usual.

Jie Chou waved Nan Xiangwan's personal cheerleading sign excitedly, shrieking loudly from below the stage.

Guan Liangzhe quickly spotted him, stepping forward with microphone held out: "We see you every recording, come greet the livestreaming audience!"

Jie Chou: "I won't do greetings, just point the camera at my cheerleading sign."

As he spoke, he raised the sign to block his front, magnifying it in view.

Guan Liangzhe: "What a dedicated fan!"

Jie Chou had a face full of pride.

......

【Nan Xiang Wan's Personal Fans Group】

Sweetie: "Friends, we have confirmation that the guy waving the sign is the leader of her brick fanclub!"

Sweetie: "He's at every show, he's always there!"

Green Sleeves: " @Group Admin @Group Admin @Group Admin"

Too Quiet: "Leader of her brick fans, come out here! Is that you?"

Wandering under the Green Lantern Night: "You guys didn't see Top Star Gu sitting next to him..."

As soon as this comment came out, the group immediately became deathly still. Not a peep from anyone.

As if they turned into a dead chat!
