Chapter 57

Because of this trending topic incident, the program team of “Who Am I the Most Outstanding” suffered a heavy blow. With twists and turns, first there was actress Su Xi trafficking people, then musical genius Liang Sixu was injured and hospitalized, and finally the scandal between a non-celebrity and the movie emperor broke out. Their program team can now be said to be too out of the circle, to the point of being out of the planet.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the program and prevent other troubles from happening, after a unanimous decision by the program team, it was decided to terminate the contracts with Chi Nan, Liang Sixu, and Fu Chaoyun. This matter can be said to have been carefully considered. The program team doesn’t want any more news to break out when recording the third episode.

On the third day of being at home, Chi Nan received a call from the program team, wanting to talk to him about the termination of the contract. After negotiation, Chi Nan didn’t take a single penny. After all, he went and caused such big news for the program team, he had no reason to take the program team’s remuneration. In the end, Chi Nan terminated the contract and returned to normal campus life.

Having stayed at home for almost a week, Chi Nan was almost moldy. These days, he controlled himself not to think about Fu Chaoyun, not to read Fu Chaoyun’s news, and even cleared everything related to Fu Chaoyun. He even disconnected his tablet from the internet, leaving only the function of answering calls. He was emptying himself at home. He couldn’t continue to be decadent. Losing one Fu Chaoyun, there were thousands upon thousands of Fu Chaoyuns waiting for him.

Chi Nan felt that he had to cheer up. If he continued like this, he wouldn’t be able to afford next year’s tuition, even though the savings his maternal grandpa left him were still enough.

“Hello.”

When Chi Nan was spacing out on the sofa, the phone on the table rang.

“Are you feeling any better lately?”

Gu Jingnan held the phone in one hand to talk to Chi Nan, and took the car keys in the other, preparing to go out.

“A little better, not as bad as before, what’s up?”

“Nothing, just thought you were in a bad mood so I’d take you out to eat. There’s a new restaurant that seems pretty good.”

Chi Nan thought for a moment. Although he couldn’t be considered isolating himself during this time, he hadn’t been out for a week. Chi Nan looked at the scenery outside the window. The sky was blue, the clouds were white, the weather was good, and the sunlight could shine onto the floor through the cracks. He had only lost love, why could Fu Chaoyun live so carefree, while he had to be here feeling sorry for himself? He wanted to seek new opportunities.

“Okay, see you later.”

After Chi Nan hung up the phone, he walked barefoot to the window, opened the window, and let all the sunlight pour in. He didn’t do anything wrong, why should he isolate himself? He, Chi Nan, should be living in the sun, shouldn’t he?

Chi Nan changed his clothes, styled his hair, put on a mask, and prepared to go out. Although his popularity might have subsided now, in order to prevent unknown people from rushing out to splash him with paint, he still chose to arm himself. When Chi Nan arrived downstairs, Gu Jingnan had already arrived in his car.

“You look, very young, today.”

Chi Nan looked at Gu Jingnan’s change in dressing style, becoming more energetic, and didn’t know what to say, so he said a very awkward sentence. After Chi Nan finished speaking, he regretted it a bit. He shouldn’t have said that to Gu Jingnan.

Gu Jingnan smiled after hearing it. It seemed that young people were very interesting when they spoke.

Chi Nan opened the car door and got into the car. Gu Jingnan played a relatively soothing music for Chi Nan and started chatting with Chi Nan.

The moment he heard the music, Chi Nan remembered that when he was in Uncle Fu’s car, Uncle Fu specially downloaded his favorite music and played it for him. And there were also some snacks in the car, afraid that he would be bored. Memories were always sad. Thinking of this, Chi Nan gently patted his head twice with his hand.

“Why are you thinking about that jerk again? Didn’t we agree to start over and not think about him? Silly brain.”

Chi Nan scolded himself in his heart while patting his head.

Gu Jingnan saw Chi Nan’s small movements out of the corner of his eye, but didn’t point it out, and started chatting with Chi Nan about other topics.

After chatting for a few sentences, Chi Nan found that this road was getting more and more wrong, winding around. Who said Gu Jingnan was helping Chi Nan? He shouldn’t be abducting Chi Nan, but the road was strange, which aroused Chi Nan’s vigilance. Chi Nan immediately sat up straight and started talking to Gu Jingnan.

“Aren’t we going to eat? Where are we going?”

“A friend of mine runs a private restaurant, the location is relatively remote, but the taste is pretty good.”

“About how much longer do we have?”

“20 minutes, almost there.”

Chi Nan nodded after listening, and didn’t get distracted along the way, just watching the direction Gu Jingnan’s car was driving, fearing that it would deviate and take Chi Nan to an unknown place.

When he finally got out of the car, Chi Nan was shocked by the scenery here, which had a bit of a “Peach Blossom Spring” feel. The outside was just an ordinary, uninteresting decoration. Walking inside, you could see a small path built with cobblestones and pine bamboo. Both sides of the path were planted with pine bamboo. At the end of a small path that was dozens of meters long was a pavilion. Going around the pavilion was the dining area, all decorated in an antique style. Even when ordering, they used bamboo slips instead of a menu.

When Chi Nan sat down, he was still observing this place. The inside could be described as a different world. Although this place was big, there were few customers, and the environment could be said to be very elegant.

At the other end of Zhuxiang Small Residence, Fu Chaoyun hadn’t appeared in front of the audience for many days, and he wasn’t taking on any work, giving off the impression that he wanted to retire from the circle. Several friends in the circle who knew the news invited Fu Chaoyun to Zhuxiang Small Residence for a meal to relax, saying that they had to dispel Fu Chaoyun’s thoughts of retiring from the circle.

“Let’s go, I’m telling you this place was hard for me to book.”

Fu Chaoyun’s friend in the circle, Xiao Yi, pulled Fu Chaoyun, saying that they had to have a meal. Fu Chaoyun hadn’t been sleeping well these days and really didn’t feel like eating. As a result, Xiao Yi knew about this and directly drove Fu Chaoyun out of his house, saying that he had to eat with Fu Chaoyun. Fu Chaoyun couldn’t resist, so he was taken to Zhuxiang Small Residence by Xiao Yi and his group.

“Let’s go, I’m telling you it’s delicious, others can’t book it at all, I only managed to book it a long time ago, and the environment inside is definitely beyond your expectations.”

Xiao Yi was still guaranteeing things to Fu Chaoyun, but Fu Chaoyun didn’t even want to lift his eyelids. If he didn’t eat this meal with Xiao Yi today, he estimated that Xiao Yi would annoy him to death. He didn’t know how the two of them became friends in the first place. Fu Chaoyun was wondering if it was too late to break up now.
